Maybe. I still haven't played the last two. I probably won't play Primal; FC5 looks good though.

FC4 felt exactly the same as 3 (which I looooved) but with assassins at the camps. Primal reminded me of that. Maybe ND is the same with 5, but different levels.

Loved 3.
4 was great but the same as 3 with a few upgrades.
Wanted to get into Primal but never got around to it. Doesn't sound like I missed much.
I need to buy 5 because the cult thing looks super cool.

My question is: Is 5 just the same damn thing we've been doing over and over? I'll get it even if it is but want to know.
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

Far Cry 5 and AC Odyssey are both great games. Hoping Ubisoft is figuring crap out. I bought New Dawn but have not played yet.

How's AC Origins? That's the AC I'm on. I usually get about two AC games and pound through them 2 at a time.

It was excellent. Everything that was perfected in Odyssey was started in Origins. I thought Bayek was an excellent protagonist. Great story and the combat overhaul was nice. Ancient Egypt was amazing.

Is it better than Black Flag? I liked that, but I kind of like the pirate thing so that helped.

I think so. If you liked Black Flag you should check out Odyssey. The sea plays a big part, you have a ship, etc...

Very happy to hear this. Because when I hear "overhaul" it tends to suck donkey balls.
I was never a huge fan of the combat in the first place. It was cool, it just never was great.

I dont think they made combat harder but the did expand beyond mashing square x and circle. A welcome change I believe.
