What gaming news are we discussing this week?
Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast. It's been a great week for gaming news, from the release of Assassin's Creed Shadows to the massive amount of games showing off in the future game show. We've got a ton to be excited about, but first, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh, and joining me... He's not excited for Expedition 33, but he can't wait to mow down hordes of knights in his pickup truck. It's Ryan.
I was actually thinking as I was watching the trailer for Kingsmakers, I'm like, man, I'm picturing Henry of Skavitz or whatever. It's the same era. All the time I was in jail, I'm like, yeah, yeah. And I'm just killing everything.
Everything. Dude, I love that they were like, this takes place in 1402. And I was like, wait a minute. Kingdom Come Deliverance is 1409. There you go. Watch out, Henry. Watch out. And joining us, he's a sane person like the rest of us because he is. is excited about Expedition 33. So welcome to the non-doofest team. It's John. Oh my gosh.
This is the first time I've ever been on the non-doofest team, you guys.
Welcome.
I was recently told that my doofusness is like my most redeeming quality. I'm not sure what to do. I feel like happy and sad at the same time.
Don't worry. When people hear your sign off, you're going to be right back on the doofus team, buddy. So... Yeah, I can vouch for that. Oh, man. People are like, wait, I got to skip to the end now. Guys, what a week for gaming news, man. I love it. Look, you know, it's one of those things like everybody loves lots to talk about. But like we all kind of look at gaming news for the week and game releases and trailers that we see. And we kind of compile all this stuff together. And some days we look at it and we go, man, there's like two things that are worth talking about. Other weeks we go, guys, we're going to have to shorten this. Like, there's too much.
Yeah.
You know, this week was absolutely one of those weeks where there was just way too much to talk about. So we're going to have to pare some of it down. So what we do, like any good group of gamers, we're going to talk about the stuff that we're most excited about.
I'm going to say quit stalling.
Let's go. Let's go.
All right.
Ryan's ready. Let's I mean, let's do it then. So, guys, the release of Assassin's Creed Shadows. Right. We have been talking about this game. I feel like it's been two years now. I mean, people know we have been trolling Ubisoft. We've been kind of kicking that horse any chance we get. We have said many times that, hey, we feel like this is Ubisoft's last hurrah. If this game doesn't do good, I don't know what's going to happen to Ubisoft at that point. Well, the game comes out. And like the internet does, if you would believe that half the world hates this game and the other half of the world says, dude, this game's actually pretty good. Now, if we go by just sales and data, the game has passed 2 million players. Not bad. That's not pretty good to me.
What are the opinions on Assassin's Creed Shadows?
Yeah.
At what, 60, 70 bucks a pop, right? They're getting there, but, I mean, honestly, I mean, to be fair, for a game of Ubisoft's caliber, two million, like, I think there's a reason they're saying players and not, like, copies sold.
You caught that, too?
Yeah. So like, I think there's, there's a reason that's the direction on how they're kind of like, well, wait, no, look at, look at how many people are playing the game. And they're like, Oh, don't worry about how many copies we sold over here. You know, it just, I don't know. I have a lot to say about this and we're going to cover it all. But, um, I think on that part of it, I think there's a reason it is broadcast in the way it is, and it's meant to be in that fashion to make it look good.
Yeah, and so I just beat Prince of Persia The Lost Crown, which was also a great game. It was a great game, fantastic game by any measure. But it's graphically like by all accounts, you would think of it as a like a lower lift sort of game. Like it doesn't have the immense scope and production value that like an Assassin's Creed game does.
