Their open world formula got stale after a few generations. Instead of trying to push the formula forward, they just made their games longer and added more filler. Elden Ring isn’t doing them any favors either. I actually think a lot of open world games are going to have to change it up cause I don’t think you can ignore Elden Ring and what it did for the open world genre.
Or as it should read, "Ubisoft no longer willing to invest in single or double A titles".
Ubisoft has to be one of the most reactive companies in the industry. So little innovation and proactivity.
I’d argue that GoT also changed the formula a bit. I don’t remember seeing a million icons on an overcrowded map. You follow the wind to get to your next objective. It’s simple but it was refreshing when compared to your map in games like AC and FC. Also GoT’s combat was fun!
Just picked up GT7 without expecting to play it much. Ended up being my fav game so far. Really takes advantage of the adaptive trigger and you get great feedback. Pretty big leap especially with RT for the replays and showroom.
