Mario and Rabbids 2 seemed like it was $20 like a month later... no reason not to wait times are tough right now.
That was because the Mario movie commoditized our friendly neighborhood plumber. Sad times.Mario and Rabbids 2 seemed like it was $20 like a month later... no reason not to wait times are tough right now.
As true as this is... it's something Ubisoft created themselves. It's almost astonishing how quickly Ubi discounts their software and they have trained people to wait on it.
yes, the monumental risk of…making a metroidvania in 2024. where could I possibly find another one of those?I understand - but at the same time it’s not like this game is 5 hours long, or overpriced. It’s actually priced cheaper than a regular AAA and by all accounts seems well worth the price. And it’s not some Assassin’s Creed or Far Cry that is guaranteed good initial sales and long legs - most gamers nowadays have probably never even played a Prince of Persia game. If this bombs, this is it, they won’t go back to this type of game again. And the guy who waited to pay $15 for it 8 months down the road will be the first to complain that AAA publishers never take any risks.
From a AAA dev/publisher?yes, the monumental risk of…making a metroidvania in 2024. where could I possibly find another one of those?
They do those discounts on purpose. To sell more DLC. Ubisoft's main income has been from DLC for quite some time.As true as this is... it's something Ubisoft created themselves. It's almost astonishing how quickly Ubi discounts their software and they have trained people to wait on it.
Dread wasn't 60fps?It's obvious that the Switch was a priority for this games development. The visuals and framerate are top notch, and honestly, it's a step above Dread in that respect. It's nice to see games release on Switch in 2024 that exhibit this level of polish from a third party publisher. I bought the digital deluxe version so I could get the game a few days sooner and because I want to support this type of offering from Ubisoft. They need to greenlight more projects like this.
This game made me think that Platinum Games could do a spinoff Bayonetta game with this formula. The combat and boss fights could be epic.
Bought it for 39€.It's €44 on launch, I think that's an absolutely fair price.
It was 60fps, but it had more stutters in gameplay than I have experienced in PoP so far. Plus Dread was 900p docked while PoP is 1080p. Dread also had quite a bit of aliasing, PoP has some good FXAA applied. This isn't a knock on Dread, I love that game and have over 60 hours with it. I'm just elated that Ubisoft crafted a game like this in 2024 and it deserves the praise.Dread wasn't 60fps?
From the demo the 60fps felt less smooth than dread but it might be memory playing tricks on me.It was 60fps, but it had more stutters in gameplay than I have experienced in PoP so far.

idk its a 2d game they shouldnt be breaking the bank for it and require 10 million copies to break evenYou can see the issues already in this thread. How many variations do we have of: "Wow, this looks great, and has great reviews, and is my type of game for sure. I'll play it in a few months when it's on sale."
Will be followed in a couple years by:
"Man why doesn't Ubisoft make another 2.5D PoP game, that game was awesome. Too bad it didn't sell so good."
