Creative doesn't mean good

Different strokes for different folks. Just because some people don't enjoy it doesn't mean it's worth complaining about.

The content that other people want will come, this isn't for them and that's okay. It's a unique, fun way of doing a reveal that highlights talent we don't normally get to see the process for.

This is a cool way to show something, especially when people maybe have more time to spare.

This is such a good idea for a stream, massively in favour of it

Just nice and chill, slowly building up

What is up with companies and making such shitty reveals lately?

First that god awful PS5 reveal and now this.

Like people are bored in quarantine and are itching for something interesting. This is the perfect time to go crazy and break viewership records. And yet this is all that they come up with.
I prefer this over a CG trailer or anything we've gotten recently.

Just a heads up guys and girls.
With the recent TLOU2 leaks, that live chat is DANGEROUS, keep it hidden

Wow, nice soundtrack. Ezio remix theme or something.

Hope this guy is still painting after my zoom meeting.

This has to be pre-recorded and sped up right? I'm not familiar at all with Photoshop, but Bosslogic is zooming around that thing.

It's so weird to see people bashing this. If you enjoy art being made, watch it. If you don't, don't watch it and come back here when it's finished. You know it'll be everywhere when the game is revealed when Boss is done.

I'm thoroughly enjoying seeing this with the cool AC music playing. It's so chill.

I wonder if they will bring back the shield for this game. They took it out of Odyssey because Ubi said people abused it too much.

The silhouette (the MC I assume?) seems to have a hidden blade btw. Not that it's, huh, shocking.

Also, I wonder if this another "Alexios on the cover" thing or if this guy is the sole MC.

This is cool. They've clearly communicated upfront that this is a setting reveal, so it's not as if you've got people hanging on for a gameplay deep dive.

The novelty of this seems to have already worn off for some, but it's the chance you take. I like it.

Wow, some folks really hate creative reveals, apparently. Don't worry, you'll get your CG/gameplay trailers, too. This isn't the game reveal, Ubisoft is pretty damn specific in saying that this is the setting/character reveal.

This is super cool, and a nice way to highlight talent on the team.


Do all that AFTER the gameplay reveal. This is the stuff that goes into deep dives ONCE you grab their attention. Not the WAY YOU grab their attention. This is like Cerny all over again. There's a few big companies that seem to have left their Marketing Manual at the office during lockdown.

All they needed to do was show 5 seconds of gameplay and then launch into this. Or do gameplay then have a series of mini docs like this.

At the moment this feels like The Sprint for Halo, but without any trailers beforehand.

Unique teaser for sure, fun to do something else.

But I ain't gonna lie, personally don't have the patience to sit and watch someone mess about in Photoshop :P

Expecting just a trailer is just so boring. You get a 1-2 min video and then what?
People have tons of time these days and it's pretty cool to see a photoshop process from who is essentially the most popular name in the game on the internet.

This is a put it on background, 2nd screen kind of thing while cool music plays, and check on it every now and then.

This track is sick and sounds Scandinavian... Is it new?

EDIT: Nvm confusing pirates with vikings.
