Ubisoft uklanja Assassin's Creed III iz Uplay-a i pare u korist AC3 Remastera


News of Assassin's Creed III getting a remaster was met with lukewarm reception from the get go, primarily because the original game does not rank high in the preference of games in the series for most people. Personally, I thought it was an underrated game but does have a slow start that can put off many people who came to it after the excellent Ezio trilogy just before. The remaster itself also seemed to be more a color palette sweep-over than many suspected, with a faux-HDR effect at times that has had mixed reviews in the few short days since it has been made available. Many on Steam have also took to the review section to complain about bugs and launch issues, as well as the $39.99 pricing (although it is included for free with the season pass for Assassins Creed Odyssey at the same price point).

Ubisoft je otada oduzeo izvornu igru ​​od Uplaya, a isto je učinio i na Steamu kao što piše na izvornoj stranici trgovine. Ovo je uobičajena poslovna praksa u slučajevima kada izdavač ne želi imati zabune u vezi sa onim što će ubuduće biti najbolje igraće iskustvo, ali na PC-u su stvari manje jednostavne. Korisnici pare, i drugi općenito, brzo su istaknuli da je remaster sada jedini izbor i po puno višoj cijeni od onoga za što se original htio, posebno tijekom prodaje. Drugi su se pozivali na remastere za PC obično dobivajući besplatno ažuriranje, iznoseći primjere kao što su Bioshock 1 i 2. Kombinacija svega što se ovdje raspravljalo dovelo je do toga da igra ima uglavnom negativne kritike na pare, a čini se da recenzije neovisnih medija također naznačuju nemirnu budućnost za remaster.
