I don't see why everyone hates Uplay so much. I prefer Steam, but declining free games (and an excellent one at that; World in Conflict) just because it's on Uplay? Why?

Because I don't want to have to use a separate client for every single publisher out there.

Uplay is also a poorly-designed buggy mess.

If you're used to keeping the subtitles on for most Assassin's Creed games...

Switch them off for this one.

The capitalization is atrocious. You get lines like "I will not know your face by Sight", "for every Shilling I earn the captain will get six Hundred," and so on and so forth.

What do you Mean it's Art? I'm pretty sure even back in the age of pirates People didn't talk like This, putting their emphasis on some Random word.

I'm also pretty sure they didn't really Emphasize words like that in their writing (just put 'e's on the End that were shaved off later).

So, it's irritating. I don't know why they chose to do this (or allowed this to Appear in the Subtitles), and I'm pretty sure if they gave me a Reason I wouldn't accept it or understand it.

indeed, i see you take english seriously and i respect that. it would be like if you said Manos hands of fate was a better movie than the Rocky horror picture show, i'd probably take them as fightin words.

on safer ground: ark survival evolved is on sale for 60% off for those interested.

The PC version also has a bunch of problems with saving properly. Gotta jump through a bunch of hoops every time you play if you want it to actually keep your progress between sessions.

i was waffling between saying something about hurt feelings or making a jock-like crack about grammars for nerds!~

ah well

fanatical, formerly bundlestars, is currently selling conan exiles for 33% off.
i personally love this game cuz of its setting (i loved the conan movies and red sonja) but also its thrall mechanic where you can enslave npcs on the map to guard your base or work your crafting benches for you. the official pvp servers are pretty clogged with pvp sharks who've memorized the entire map and will know where your base is and destroy it. it's much better in pve and co-op modes (co-op however tethers any additional players to the main host) and it's pretty good in singleplayer as well. most importantly it has full nudity for both genders. never has tea-bagging been so visceral.
