"If we mess up the spelling we can trademark it!"

Getting major "grandma bought you a video game" vibes from the new name.

I liked the old MC design better

Also the lack of colon in the title is official? Annoying

Okay, I'm hyped.

Day 1 for Switch.

Can Ubisoft please go back to the title "Gods & Monsters"

Until Yves is gone and they show real growth and progress in dealing with their problems yeah. Anyway didn't mean to derail the thread, if you want to talk more feel free to PM me.
In fairness, Yves would not be enough. It's a family run company and they all are in high positions in the company and would need to go too.

I've been intrigued ever since there were rumors about a Ubisoft BoTW inspired game. I didn't expect that game this year but I am more interested in this than even AC or WD so I'm looking forward to seeing some actual official gameplay.

I can't really put my finger on why, but the MC looks extra generic now. The helmet and big eyes in the old version of the game did a lot of heavy lifting:

Huh, so the OP's explanation for the name change makes sense and while the first trailer looked more stylized o wasn't really expecting the game to look exactly like what looked to be a pre-rendered teaser

What I'm most interested is how the game changed since ubisoft delayed a bunch of games to make them more unique after the ghost recon debacle and I want to see what a game that is less guided by the ubisoft formula looks

Don't like the new art style for the character, looks very generic.
Same really not liking the updated style of the main character , is this create your own character or what. The monster itself looks generic, i mean they could have gone for more fantastical elements but idk.

I'm really interested in seeing this next week. The initial concept we heard from E3 sounded great and these screenshots seem interesting as well.

Hopefully it's still planned for and runs well on the Switch day one.

Yeesh what a downgrade for both the name and the characters. Still excited for this, hope it runs well on Switch.

Hmm, seeing a lot of AC Odyssey in the landscape other than the brighter look and shaders. Hopefully it is quite different.

I mean, helmets are still clearly in the game. As for the eyes, the only new shot we have that includes her face shows her narrowing her eyes.
I mean there is clearly change in the shape of the eye as well as of the pupil. the old one has the look of 3d animated movies like Pixar's , the new one is much close to the human eye shape and size.

The entire God Of War series is banned in the middle east due to the word God in the title. I think the 2018 game was the only one that's been released there.

Even Injustice Gods Among Us is banned there.

Huh, the more you know. I guess in that context the name change makes sense.
I just wish they had gone with something a bit more dynamic.

If you like BOTW, prepare to have some fun on a bit smaller scale and with a bit less "mystery of unknown".

After playing hundreds of hours of the new Assassin's Creed games, seeing this makes me feel exhausted already. Exact same animations and physics, which means playing it is not going to feel new. I do like the artstyle though, and was hoping for something more original. A BotW rip off would be much better than ripping off the last 2 AC games.

Don't dig the new name and MC. Curious about the gameplay though.

So far it really looks like they took a ton of AC Odyssey assets, removed all elements of blood/dirt and then shuffled them about. Curious to see more.

those screens look incredibly bland. so much empty, low detail space in the background. hope its the switch version.

I wonder if they reduced the scope of this game for some reason, if they are this late to show it in action
