  • Ubisoft sent over a code for Prince of Persia The Lost Crown and after playing through the game I'm happy to say Prince of Persia is back.

    It's interesting when Ubisoft actually let a dev have enough time and creative control, they're actually able to make a good game

      Ubisoft has tons and tons of creative developer. It just the higher ups are utter moronic with their bussiness decision.

    I honestly believe the Prince of Persia series is underrated. A lot of the ideas and mechanics from Assassins Creed and Uncharted series got it from older Prince of Persia games.

      @EngineeringScience015 2 месяца назад

      I do not think it is underrated. I think that AC was a breath of fresh air that substituted it for quite a while since there is plenty of opportunities than just something set in Persia. I think it had a great run, but we can see from this game they are trying to go in a good direction. It still won't be as famous as AC in my opinion.

    That always seems to be the pattern. The majority of games that have demos available are the ones that review very well. I feel like demos should become a mandatory thing for games. It will force these companies to develop the game at least well enough to present to the masses rather than the typical 'release now fix later' model.

    • @mgxzazfbyjuchrisclarkvpz236
      @mgxzazfbyjuchrisclarkvpz236 5 месяцев назад +1

      Sony and Microsoft don't do enough to force/promote devs and publishers to make pro gamer decisions. It's THEIR platform and store, if they wanted to they could have a demo be mandatory. They could be strict in making sure games have a baseline level of polish. Mandatory quality/performance modes as well as an uncapped framerate mode for when the next console comes out, so that games will automatically get resolution/framerate boosts via backwards compatibility. T
      Hell, they could even have a rule that devs who've made a game within the last 8 years must go back and patch their previous games that are in need of higher resolution/better framerate. This would help bring consoles up to speed with the PC and its vastly superior backwards compatibility.
      There's so much more they should be doing to bolster console gaming. None of these things are unreasonable either, nor do they require "that" much work. They don't do this because they don't want to "restrict" companies. They cater more to publishers than gamers. Steam on PC is doing much more for their customers than the console makers and that's damn shame but we've been trained to sort of accept the bare minimum. Just look at how awful the return policies are (esp Sony)! If you so much as download a game you cant get a refund even if the game is broken and sold on lies.

      I like it. But…. I don’t like the linear 2d decision.
      The freedom we had in the magnificent 3d original was truly amazing. I still find that 15+ year old game superior. I don’t like being restricted going left to right for this type of adventure. Fun. Good combat graphics, sound etc….But I wanted to open up that beautiful world I saw behind our beloved character.

    This seems like a great step back for the series granted it feels more like a side story as you’re not playing as the Prince himself.. I made sure to preorder even though I knew I’d be somewhat broke after the holidays! I used to dedicate Fridays to playing PoP so maybe I need to go back to doing this & take a little break from FF

    For me, the surprise wasn't that the game is good. The surprises were how big the map is, how well done the platforming is, how fair and difficult, at the same time, it feels, and how great the combat system is.
    You can make amazing long combos againts small enemies (not at the level of DMC5, of course), and have stylish epic fights againts bosses. Some of them were among the most epic boss fights I've ever seen in a videogame. The platforming is well done, and fun, because it wants the player to do everything almost perfectly at times. Puzzles are great. Even tho the story and lore barely works, I want more of this. There are many games of this genre, but there isn't one doing everything The Lost Crown does. It's a really nice mix, which makes it quite unique. A lot of people compare it to Hollow Knight, but I think it has a lot more in common with Strider.
