...I'll take that with a grain of salt. It looks interesting, but there is something (I can't put my finger on exactly what) that is worrying me...

Welp! Gonna replay the original.
Perhaps the lack of distinctiveness? I wouldn't so much call it generic as it is... lacking personality? I feel there's a difference between the two. It's not that it looks just like any other game but that the uniqueness of it isn't played up enough.
It looks a hell of a lot like all their other open world games. I'm coming off playing AC:Origins and so much of that looks familiar. Except now there's multiple planets and spaceships tossed into the equation.
Hhm... I guess it's just I can SEE trace elements of the style of the first BG&E in things like the giant Ganesha statue and the style of the floating cars, it's just not put in everything in the game and not played up enough and can't because it's meant to be a huge open world game.
IDK, it looks a lot like the Ubisoft game with elements of BG+E thrown in to me. It may end up being a fun game, but it's looking to be a sequel in name only.

It looks top good to be true. This is definitely a wait and see kind of game.
I'm only judging based on the trailer above, but I suspect it's gonna come down to this. Do you enjoy the Ubisoft game if there is something in it that appeals to you(History/Conspiracy for AC, Modern Day fucking around in FC, Social Media/Cyber whatever for Watch Dogs)? If so, then you might enjoy this. If not, I doubt it's gonna be significantly different then all their other games.

Of course, assuming Ubisoft doesn't pull another Unity. (Is that a phrase? If not, can it be a phrase?)

Yeah, I'll see it when it comes out. Some things sound good but there are some red flags like how it looks like an MMO and it is published by ubisoft. Could be good and could be bad and the resemblance to the original will probably be fairly weak.

Honestly,if it works like it does in that trailer, where everything is seamless. I'll 100% be interested.

I don't usually play Ubisoft games, but this as a concept looks dope.

HOWEVER, iv'e been following the gaming industry long enough to be wary of any kind of Trailer or Advertisement that looks too good to be true.

I'm not even going to be cautiously optimistic, i'm just going to be cautious.

Wow that was... kinda bland looking. Those animations are reminding me of Star Wars: The Old Republic, which came out in 2011. Plus they've really been focusing on this multiplayer aspect, in both assets and gameplay. Good chance this one will be a pass for me.

Yeah, it's really unfortunate but there's not really anything for it I guess...
