Maybe they'll actually make a sequel to Beyond Good & Evil instead of whatever that shit with the swearing monkey chav was supposed to be.

Ambitious plans for biggest existing franchises,including:
  • Promising content for Assassin’s Creed® over the coming months and years, including a powerful post-launch plan for Valhalla in Year 1 and 2
  • Far Cry® 6 to build on the franchise’s great momentum
  • Tom Clancy’sRainbow Six® Extraction to broaden Rainbow Six audience
  • Mario +Rabbids®: Sparks of Hope to leverage the first opus' success and massive Nintendo Switch installed base
  • Revival of fan-favorite franchise with Beyond Good and Evil™ 2
The game is not dead. It's coming 2023, 2024 or never.

Now to wait till it will be released, and then wait for a shitty PC port. The original was quite decent on PC though.
Except for the horrible bug making the X axis inverted when you inverted the Y axis. And nobody from Ubisoft cared to repair it ever. Some guy on GoG made a patch that worked with some versions.

I think this guy is just a scam.



It looks like they are restarting the dev cycle at Ubisoft Barcelona.

Skull & Bones was legally contracted to release come hell or high water because they took government grants. Wonder if it's a similar case here.

Does this have anything at all to do with the first game?

Writing on a phone to boot in case she wasn't obvious enough.

I guess they spent too much money and time on this to go back.

Unsurprisingly, Ubishit went with another low-pay dangerhair hack to ruin Michel Ancel's legacy.

This game should have stayed dead.


When did you become right-wing?

Never?

Did you know that the latest peer reviewed studies shows that there is such a strong correlation between being left-wing and being ugly that they could pretty much draw a statistical straight line between nasty looking unattractive dysgenic horrors on the left end and attractive, good looking athletic appearance aesthetes on the right? Would link to some fresh papers but it's not like cockroaches can read.

She isn't what I'd ever call ugly going by that pic alone. But again that is going by one pic, with carefully chosen angle, make-up, who knows what usual Instragram tricks...

Are you struggling with Conservative Cognitive Dissonance again?

Conservatives are pretty fucking dumb but at least most of them doesn't have to struggle with being ugly rats on top of the cognitive problems all leftards have.

...claiming there are no ugly conservatives?
Reading comprehension for the most part depends on genetics and only informs politics, since cockroaches like you can't read you always tend to have noxious political positions for this reason. Re-read my assertion and you will find that my claim, backed up by authoritative studies, is that there are fewer ugly conservatives than there unattractive lefties. But then coming to grips with statistical trends is hardly the strong suit of leftards either, as they can't grasp that they are not invalidated by anecdotes or singular cases that go against the grain.

Over the last several years, the gaming community has been no stranger to the negative reports and rumors surrounding Beyond Good and Evil 2’s turbulent development. In 2020, the game’s director Michel Ancel left the project and the games industry entirely but had said that the project was “going super well.” It’s been two years since Ancel’s departure and not much else has been said officially about the title apart from that it is still in development at Ubisoft.

Last month, we reported that Beyond Good and Evil 2 had started external playtesting, with two sources providing screenshots and video footage of the game under the condition that the images and footage were not made public.

Looking at the footage, it is clear that the game looks far more incomplete than the footage shared by Ubisoft in December 2018, suggesting that the game has been overhauled since the gameplay was revealed.

It’s understood that you’re able to create your own character in Beyond Good and Evil 2 and use presets to start designing around your character. One example seen was a character that looked like a shark, and another was a panda. These characters could have your typical customization options added to your desire.

Sources had said that the game still feels “years away” and “lacks direction,” whilst another source had said they had “no idea what I was doing when playing.”

The honest criticism makes sense, too, with Sarah Arellano recently announcing that she is the Lead Writer on Beyond Good and Evil 2, which implies the game still has a story to be written. Arellano previously worked as the Narrative Designer for Blizzard on World of Warcraft.

To me, from seeing footage and gameplay, it’s clear that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is probably another couple of years away, but that’s not that long if you’ve been waiting 15 years already. Ubisoft is scheduled to show off a new showcase event this September, but it’s unclear if the event will feature Beyond Good and Evil 2. Recent external playtests could indicate that the team is gearing up for some kind of reveal, but no rumors or official comments have been made thus far.
