Gonna go out on a limb right now and say it's not gonna be good.

Bold, I know.

Every once in a while they release something like Anno 1800 that everyone seems to like. So maybe.

I wanted to play Anno 2205 since it was released back in 2015 but not if it meant downloading and registering in Ubisoft's bullshit launcher DRM. Here we are almost 10 years later and they still haven't budged on that requirement. I'll be looking forward to reading the news of Ubisoft either getting rid of UPlay or going out of business. Either way, that requirement will eventually go away too.

Wild, could you walk the rest of us how you came to that conclusion?

Does it count as an animal crossing game if it's pay to win?

I don't think Ubisoft could make something like this without it being pay to win somehow

It's a game about collecting furniture. So I guess it would be P2W if they sell the furniture for real money. Which is the most obvious thing to do, and surprising Nintendo didn't already do it.

The Sims business model

Have you played the mobile Animal Crossing game?

If you compare AC to the giants of the genre like Rune Factory, Story of Seasons, and Viva Pinata then you’re already scraping the bottom of the barrel

Oh good, can’t wait to not play it!

Animal Crossing style game where you have to climb towers to unlock map visibility, have follow sneak missions and a general sub par gaming experience. No thanks Ubishit.
