I can't remember a single AC game where you did that, it was always just either a toggle or press and hold a button for the avatar to start climbing (while of course steering him forward).

that's bullshit, in none of the games it was "harder" I do believe you think it was that way because it was "clunky af" Laughing


You need to reinstall AC2 because you are wrong.








That's not what I thought you meant, I thought you meant left leg right leg movement. Just moving the character to the left or right for him to grab a ledge or something is not missed for me in Origins, and no IMO there was no skill in moving the character to left or right for him to be able to climb.

There's an extra bit WAY out in the most remote desert area (This is also where Ubi decided to place on of the god challenges, yay.) but besides that these places are kinda empty.

There might be a war elephant in the white desert somewhere and the black desert has a meditation point. (Also a achievement right there for the highest place in the game, sadly they mean that physically and not the guru's secret stash of herbal "medicine" heh. Very Happy )

I don't think there's much else there, no main quest importance to these zones at all either and I don't think there's many if any side quests for these remote areas. I explored most of that final desert area looking for oddities from the overhead map but I found nothing else, still haven't been everywhere in the black desert and the white desert though so I could have overlooked something.


Thanks for this JB...appreciate

I have to say, despite it's repetitiveness (in side quests mostly), I'm having a great time with this (maybe because I skipped Unity, Rogue and Syndicate so I haven't really played an AC game for like 3-4 years).
It looks bloody amazing with incredible detail everywhere, after 50+ hours of gameplay I still can't wait to enter new cities, temples, and desert regions to hop off the horse, take a walk and just bask in the beautiful scenery. I used to give Ubisoft shit around every corner, but in cases like this you have to commend the folks at Ubi Montreal on how they crammed all this detail together. Definitely one the game's strongest point.

I still have a few regions left, still haven't reached Cyrene, and the southernmost deserts. Regarding the atmosphere, I really like the feel of The Black Desert (with it's highest mountaintop), and Qattara Depression (with its big desolate emptiness and weird hallucinations).

Also, regarding the "Bayek's Promise" quest, a small positive thing: I really like the fact that the quest is not really over when it ends, but the game doesn't tell you this. If you know where to go, you'll be in for a little secret.. Smile

Only for the standalone version, I believe. It got PEGI rating and mostly for educational purpose in schools.

Kind of silly to cover up with seashells though.


The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

One of the dev talks/laughs about it a little bit in this video at about 1 hour in. They covered up the statues to get a lower ESRB rating. They also talk about recreating parts of the statues that had been destroyed.

Since they want this to be used in schools and want the most amount of people to play it, I would guess this is done to just not deal with dumb rating systems.




It's kind of dumb (given books and museum tours don't cover) but quite a nice mode. Smile

I hope not. Or at least has an option. I'm yet to update the game. Will check later today.

Yeah uh right because games sell so well in the middle east...

If it has nudity, be it art or sexual in nature, the game will get a higher age rating in Murica (discovery mode can be bought as a separate game) and schools will never let teachers use a game with a high age rating even if censoring can be toggled and schools are one of the main markets for this.

The "Discovery Tour" has a different ESRB rating than the base game. There are topless npcs in the base adventure, I don't care if they censor the "tour" version for the kids and parents.

yeah because there are only muslims in the middle east Laughing the most radical muslims lives here.

It's curious why censoring art is even a thing.. if you take your kid to a restaurant or to a hotel, basically any "nice" place outside your home, the kid will most likely be exposed to this "terrible" nudity which is art..

Eh, even if it was a reasonable argument of any kind, this shit just doesn't belong here If anything he should go to the Ubi Thread and take a bash at the Devs there for doing so if it makes him feel limited in his ability to enjoy the game.

Indeed, please no more derailing. This is the kind of discussion that never spawns anything good (especially here in the PC Arena, where it also constitutes OT), if you want to continue feel free to do it via PMs, carrier homing pigeons or private morse code Hump channel.

about to leave for the dlc area sinai and was finishing some remained yellow quests like tombs and stones and also visiting the unexplored locations which no quest ever took me there and really there is nothing there lol, all the south side of the map which are the deserts, the middle part of the map which are the mountains and the north part with the sea there is almost nothing with some areas completly nothing, maybe one tomb and a circle stone but thats it, thats like 30% or more of the entire map i think which is empty.

why not add more tombs to the areas or add some side quests? they could have done some interesting ones instead of the same copy paste quests found in every city. major dissapointed as the best parts of the game is outside of cities

anyway finished the dlc too, 47h in total, after all this i think bayek is the best character after ezio and deserves a sequel


I can see your soul at the edges of your eyes..

Depth of field, perhaps? Or bloom? The 2 options I always turn off immediately Very Happy

Btw, I can confirm that even with the base game, the statues in museum mode are censored. Sucks, because those shells look really stupid and glued on.


There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.

I've been using the trusty Reshade (vintage version) with the usual pinch of sharpening and fake HDR/gamma-vibrance adjustments, I always find it effective when it comes to counterbalancing strong vaseline-looking AA methods and make the lighting pop, two birds with one stone. Smile
