The most promising thing I’ve heard in years
The following line honest-to-God exists in this game’s Steam listing under "key features:"
Features a gripping storyline that unfolds organically through the gameplay (doesn’t rely on cutscenes to move the story along). The ratio of gameplay to cutscenes is better than 13:1.
I swear I did not adulterate that. On the one hand, it seems ludicrous to consider 13:1 a good gameplay-to-cutscene ratio — that’s still way too many cutscenes — but come on. When was the last time a game had enough balls to try to minimise the damn things?
Now if only they’d make the game itself look more interesting. Oh good: we get to alternate between a browner version of Call of Duty and a browner version of Assassin’s Creed. Can’t wait.
I just described a video game as "a browner version of Assassin’s Creed." If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I never would have believed such a thing could exist.
