Probably, but most importantly it requires permanent brain damage.

Oh wow. No expansions, no random maps, no nothing that the community made for 15 years. Super blurry HD graphics and upgraded titan's weapon to be more blue. Only $19,99 for an inferior version of a game that you already own.

Yes, but it's on Steam lol.

Very difficult a PR/politician job is, you have to lie, without lying in the strictest sense. So using the map sprites shows competence at lying without lying. Comparing apples and oranges and implying a orange is a apple is one of the oldest tricks in the book.

Very high level sociopathy going on at Ubisoft tower.

Thread of the year, Ubisoft is going full Russian shovelware developer. I thought that intentionally gimping the PC version of Watch Dogs was it but taking blurry pics of a beautiful game and saying it looks like shit is on an entirely different level.


I have no idea why but the random zooming into a resource sprite killed me :lol:

FFS Ubisoft, shouldnt you be doing, i dunno, Might and Magic 11 instead?
Did MMX do well in sales?
We should be getting a new MM game in 2017 unless they hired another group of morons to work on Might and Magic, but I doubt it.

Not good enough according to Ubisoft, around 20% i think.

They are doing a project atm, but it isnt MM11, that much i can tell ya.

You mean it earned 20% of what they expected? If so then it doesn't look good at all.

The price isn't bad, just five bucks more than Heroes 3 on GOG. Compare with the BG:EE price tags.

Ubi doesn't understand the market that much is clear. The H3 crowd don't want the same game but they don't want anything different either. And nobody else cares about some shitty HD remake anyway.

Unfortunately I'm not holding my breath for a next M&M game either. The production of a MM6-8 successor, with huge open world, would be way more expensive than MMX, therefore Ubi would have to aim at the mass market. And I'm afraid those retards are not interested in an open world party based RPG without gay semi-bestial romances anymore.
