Maybe I'm missing some ongoing context, but this doesn't seem ranty at all. Yeah, the last line implies some annoyance on the part of the writer, but it's hardly damning. I dunno. Guess this is stuff I've never thought about and enjoyed hearing about from the developer perspective.
Yup. Still playing, and still enjoying it. About to hit 50 on my first character (Sith Warrior) and I've been impressed with the story telling. I skipped any missions that didn't catch my fancy and didn't feel like I needed to grind gear or do power crafting to enjoy the game and still be a viable character, which I liked a lot. Planning to play through as an Imperial Agent next, and will then probably put it away. We'll see... there's a fair chance I may not make it through an entire second play through, but since I do it in bitesize chunks (30-60 minutes here and there), the game stays pretty fresh.
I'm sad to say it, but until Ubisoft realizes that their PC DRM is draconian and anti-consumer, I won't be buying another product from them. I really enjoyed AC 2 on the 360, but there are already more good games out than I can possibly find time to play. Ones that won't kick me out of single player if my net connection is offline. Ones that don't punish legitimate customers.
I'll just read about what happens in the story online, for free. I'll spend my $250 of entertainment budget that month on something else.
I think it's hilarious to hear people complain "I can't believe they fixed X when Y is clearly SO MUCH MORE IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT AFFECTS ME!". Like MS has just one guy sitting in the back room at a terminal, staring at his "To Do" list and therefore your particular earth shattering problem isn't getting looked at while something else is patched as well.
