Lectionem disponens

Yes, that was the setting I gave you yesterday and in good standing I used the absolute worst application of latin you see here. (Planking the read), which roughly (really roughly) translate to a ‘reading plank’. I know I have a seriously warped sense of humor. You see it was important to do this in latin, because other languages have 10 of thousands of words. In Latin the idea is a little far fetched, but still applicable. 

So as such I got these 20 words to start of with:

Aqua (water) Asini (donkey) Aquilla (eagle) Pratus (meadow)
Triticum (wheat) Equos (horse) Columba (pigeon) Virgo (maiden)
Solum (soil) Currus (chariot) Cervus (stag) Sarcedos (priest)
Germana (sister) Via (road) Serpens (snake) Templum (temple)
Germanus (brother) Fluvius (river) Aper (boar) Vinum (wine)

So from there I started to think, these reading planks are static, the internet is not, so the idea came to me to upgrade the plank to the next level. When you get 100% on these words the plank will ‘upgrade’ to the next level, but it will not happen too soon. You see, the plank is also a gateway to lessons. A lesson on family (brother/sister) a lesson on animals (donkey/horse) a lesson on priest and temples and so on, only when you passed them all you get the next level of a reading plank. There will be a lesson on the hunt (boar/stag), lessons on transportation (horses/chariots) and this is another way to learn language, but as I see it, the approach will translate to Italian, Spanish, French and German in almost the same way, as I see it, the setting is almost transferable, not completely though, because the scenery will be different and the changes will be seen almost all over. The idea to have the plank and stick the work (which are on parchment) on this. As I see it, there are two ways to get into the Latin game and both are open. The first is a ‘poor’ serf who becomes a serf serving a priest in Rome (AC Brotherhood) 

As you see, it is only part of the map, it includes the Vatican and part of Rome. As a Papal guard you can enter the Vatican and you get a dwelling on Vatican island. As a serf you get a room in the church of the priest you serve and over time you will be allowed and required to enter Vatican island. Both will introduce you to etiquette and interactions with people both are different in the interactions whilst the priests will interact with the guards, as a serf you can only do the bidding of the priest and the jobs given. You can still interact with the people in Rome. As I see it a rather large linguistic challenge awaits you and the setting is almost the same for Italian, although you are nearly always housed in Rome, but as you gain experience and become adequate in Italian, you could meet and interact with people on Vatican Island, but the priests and cardinals there will only address you in Latin (unless you are given a job to do something in the Vatican).You think this is shallow, but etiquette mattered in those days and don’t think you can throw your weight around. The papal guards are not the nicest people to be rude to and at that moment you get a time out from the game and you are given clear instructions (in your dwelling) and you get to practice there for about an hour to get you more proficient in Italian and manners. 

This is merely your the beginning of what comes the way of the linguistically student. You see, it is not enough to merely learn the language, you will be pushed to get a feel for the language, something you could never get being the Apfelkorn jerk in Cortina d’Ampezzo. But as I see it, this is the way that could also be used to teach English and that too has two versions (and you would get both versions) the ‘proper’ way from AC Syndicate giving you class lessons and well (Whitechapel, The Strand, The Thames, The City of London and Westminster) and you get to learn the language skills and the etiquette as was custom in Victorian England. Modern day England is in Watchdogs Legion around Big Ben. French is in Paris (AC Unity) and Arabic/Farsi is in AC Mirage and Japanese/Portuguese is in AC Shadows. The materials are largely done (by Ubisoft) they merely need to reset the maps to the language areas and add the vocal part, the games and the tutelage parts. As I said, Ubisoft starts with a 75% program, 

I wonder which languages AC Hexe adds to the equation, I think it was German. Whatever you might think is valid but I wonder if Ubisoft had any idea what more was possible on products they had already finished. And that is before you consider how engaging the language becomes when this is paired with a meta quest visor.

Have a great day

The setting of the engineer

That is where I am at present. I have been knowing my brain around on designing games that can be used for reaching linguistic skills, but with a difference. As such I have been focusing on Latin, which was one of the languages that this solution would traverse, then from these we get to Italian and considering that people like Gaius Marius created the Italian army. There is a thought to create a few games (heavily based on MB games) to aid in the setting of this. So here I was (here I still am) converting the 1975 Tank Battle into a game with Chariots, the game play is almost the same and whilst they have no flags on the tanks they could gain a archer when they get tot he end. And the game is played by instructing (in latin) to move a chariot and as such you get linguistic training. Then we get to ‘Conquest of the Empire’ which is now called ‘securing the empire’ where we get to play a tactical game. These additions put the gamer in a linguistic mode, they will breath late in no time and no matter how limited this is and there were more games, Dice games were massively popular, so introducing them would aid this. Then there was a Dutch invention called ‘Leesplankje’ a Dutch 19th century invention that could aid here (and in other language models)

And the setting would be to use Latin phrases to aid in pronouncing certain Latin words. The idea is that these games would also be used to propel French, English, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Arabic and a few other languages. So even as the setting is based on other stages, the games could be introduced simultaneously, So here I am considering what games to add to that setting. So there is no need to add certain games, but several might be used in a different way. 

Legality
Legality is on the forefront of my mind because this is based on IP that is not mine. I feel decently secure that a game like Tank Battle has its IP protection shedded as they are unlikely to continue the legal protections, there is however the foundational protection a game designer has and the question becomes how much do you need to change a game for it to no longer to have certain levels and it might not be seen as illegal. Making a 10 by 10 field into a 15 by 15 field and making tanks Chariots might be enough, but I am not certain. Also it is a game within a game/simulation. I reckon the law was not ready for that, because there is no physical version (yet) but that is a worry for another day and for now I say ‘currum unum promove’ and ‘Da huic currui sagittarium’ and worry about tomorrow things tomorrow, because first the idea is to advance certain settings and create the elements to give this beast mass and power, because that is what makes great IP in the end. The idea is nice and essential, but when it remains and idea that is the foundation of it, when we add substance to the idea it means we seemingly worked out certain settings and it pays me too, because my mind can concoct all the things in the universe, but I have seen time and time again that I can move at speeds that most quantum computers see as madness (caressing my ego here). Still the setting when completed will be decent and the idea is not to replace language teachers, but it is to offer these services to millions of people that are out of reach of such teachers and there is a rather nice stage that these teachers will embrace that setting to educate more students in languages than currently is possible and quite soon is no longer possible, because that is also the impact of global recessions. So whilst we get sources like ABC News claiming that “The global economy is currently avoiding a worldwide recession”, but the thought has become “is it though?” Because there are too many elements in play and something has to give and education is the usual first victim in an economical war and it will be trivialized through “We are keeping our finger on the pulse and there is going to be an adjustment soon” but they are talking in styles that is leaving at least one generation partially uneducated on a near global stage. And I saw this at least 2-3 years ago, because this setting of languages was seen be me at least that long ago and I saw the business sense that a player like Ubisoft could employ, they had at least 75% ready before they ever started and that is a nice setting for a software solution maker, because that is what this will become. I think I have worked on this from 2025 onwards, but the idea to advance certain matters to all languages is decently new. 

Anyway, as we are told (13 minutes ago by the Guardian) that ‘Trump claims to be on verge of approving peace deal with major Iranian concessions’ I wonder how this was possible whilst we heard on March 15th 2026 that “Militarily, “we’ve essentially defeated Iran,” though he stopped just short of an official final victory declaration because he maintained the U.S. was still involved in delicate diplomatic talks”, yes, tell me another one. But all this is hitting the United States economically and even though it is only impacting 70 million students, the fact that the US debt surpasses their GDP is setting a strong need for a software solution and optionally not claiming a fake AI field and this is the benefit that Ubisoft could wield because there is a certain amount of certainty that the business branch of the world might not see an uneducated workforce as beneficial to them and for others to see a solution that takes away a workforce pressure in teachers that aren’t to be found gives a certain solace to the soul of these captains of industry. 

So you tell me how exactly  “the global economy is currently avoiding a worldwide recession” and I will show you where they are failing you because education and infrastructure are the first victims in a recession. 

So you all have a great day, it Saturday here now and whilst Toronto is enjoying its Friday happy feelings, I can tell them that this is overrated, because I have already seen that.

A snag in the process

That is how I see it, Ubisoft is in trouble and even after I basically handed them a key worth billions and they merely had to adjust what they already had in a new product, but here (at https://www.gamerbraves.com/ubisoft-and-the-fall-from-grace-how-one-of-gamings-biggest-names-lost-its-way/) we see ‘Ubisoft and the Fall From Grace: How One of Gaming’s Biggest Names Lost Its Way’ and I believe that the fall started when someone at Ubisoft gave us “an Assassin’s Creed every year”, which refers to Ubisoft’s famous and polarizing “annualized” release strategy. For nearly a decade, the franchise pumped out a massive new mainline title almost every single calendar year, and it might sound nice, but the bugs were not so nice and the stage was seen from AC Unity onwards and the bugs were the worst and a lot of them were not fixed as such the consumers did not trust the AC brand any longer. Unity (2014) started it all and it did not get better. I personally believe that AC Origin has one flaw (not a bug) but the game was really good, the setting was near perfect and it was a decent stealth game, they then copied it in AC Odysee and they made a good game a lot worse. After that the bugs in Valhalla were one would say hilarious, others would dump the game. But the biggest mistake was to ignore the one rule I live by “When you try to appease everyone, you merely please no one” and we got to see this again and again. Then we get to the weird setting, as I see it AC Shadows is magnificent, the Japanese style is great and there is a rather large setting, the one flaw is the boss games, still veering away from the AC setting and we are given “Market analysis firms estimate the base game generated upwards of $180 million to $200 million in gross revenue, with up to 4 million copies reportedly sold across the PS5, Xbox, and Steam.” All whilst some sources give us that up to 38 million copies were made from AC Origins from 2017 onwards. I believe that AC Shadows got a raw deal, but it is not up to us. It was up to Ubisoft to create a safe atmosphere for gamers and that was not done, as such the Ubisoft empire was dropped like a bad habit and by trying to “appease everyone, you merely please no one” and that is seen again and again. Even now the world is holding its breath for AC Hexe, there is no clear release date (as far as I know), but the larger audience is waiting for the release and the review before they will bite. And leaks (through reddit) with lines like “Assassin’s Creed Hexe got leaked and it’s fu**** incredible” people have bumped their nose into bad materials a little too often. So when we see “To understand how far Ubisoft has fallen, you first have to appreciate how high it once stood. At its peak, the scale was staggering. Assassin’s Creed alone has sold over 230 million units across the franchise and accumulated 155 million unique players. Far Cry has sold over 60 million copies, while Just Dance has moved over 80 million units and attracted over 120 million players. Rainbow Six Siege, launched in 2015 as a tactical shooter that many initially wrote off, quietly became one of the most played games in the world, with over 85 million registered users at its peak.” Then we get the ‘numbers’ giving us “Ubisoft just recently published its full financial results for fiscal year 2026, covering the 12 months ending March 31, 2026, and the numbers are stark. Revenue came in at €1.4 billion, down 21.8% compared to the previous year. Net bookings fell 17.4% year-over-year to €1.5 billion. Digital net bookings dropped 16% to €1.33 billion. The final quarter of the fiscal year, covering January to March 2026, was the worst of it: revenue collapsed 47.3% in those three months alone, while net bookings fell 54% to €415 million. Operating losses widened from €196.5 million the prior year to €1.3 billion, a figure that reflects the full cost of the company’s restructuring, including write-downs tied to seven cancelled projects and six delayed games.” We then get “Star Wars Outlaws was supposed to be a statement. Released in August 2024 with a massive development budget and a lengthy, widespread marketing campaign behind it, the open-world Star Wars adventure was exactly the kind of high-profile, licensed blockbuster Ubisoft needed to deliver. Instead, it seriously struggled for sales. Players pointed to uninspired gameplay and technical problems at launch, and the reviews reflected that disappointment. Following its release, Ubisoft’s revenue in the first half of fiscal year 2025 fell nearly 20% compared to the same period the year before.” So why these reminders? I believe that Ubisoft spread itself too much, too many projects, too many people and we see seven cancelations? That is the other side of appeasement, it comes through a lack of focus and as we saw going forward from AC Unity, there was plenty of focus lost. Then we get the delays, six of them? What were those costs? As I see it, Ubisoft spread itself too thin (or perhaps better stated over too many projects) and there is a cost for that, take that towards appeasing too many people and the losses start making sense. And I am not stepping on the legal problems they had, perhaps that is the price of not educating your staff, I have no idea, but we then see “One of the more painful stories to come out of this period involves Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. The game received positive reviews from critics but failed to meet the sales expectations of Ubisoft, leading to the development team being disbanded and a planned sequel being scrapped.” It is the second stage of a problem. You see, who were those critics? And how were these sales expectations set? I am a simple man a game is either good or it is not. And there is then the setting if it is a game I like playing or not. I was never a GTA5 fan, I see its excellence, but it is not for me and that is not on the maker, it is merely on me. The simple setting that most forget is that a game is made for a type of player. So whilst we see “Ubisoft reported a €159 million loss for fiscal year 2024-2025, with a 20.5% drop in net bookings. Poor performances from other titles offset the strong sales from Assassin’s Creed Shadows.” I personally see that Ubisoft spread itself too thin, but I could be wrong, I merely see this and saw a few more articles and that is the conclusion I am making. Perhaps the inner circle of Ubisoft needs a reset, an overhaul. The gaming audience changed and the true gamers do not care too much for system oriented influencers, no matter how good they are. If I like a game there is every chance I will replay it, I played AC Origin twice completely and I loved every moment of it. I might not be a standard gamer, but I replay what I really like. The games of Bethesda for example and some go the Ubisoft games. But I am not one of those ‘quick play for the achievements and then sell the game for another game’ Perhaps there is a misalignment between Ubisoft and me and what we think gamers are. But still I believe that one rule “When you try to appease everyone, you merely please no one” and there is the setting that I am a fan of “Those who use a formula to get a decent game, will never produce a great game” I believe this to be true and that clashes directly with the stage of creating a franchise game every year. I might be wrong, but it is what I believe and the results of Ubisoft are proving my version to be likely right. But then the article gives us a gem “Forgetting What Players Actually Want” and that is the larger setting I have been pouring over. And with “Its market capitalization has fallen by approximately 85% since January 2021. Dozens of studios have been closed or downsized, hundreds of developers have lost their jobs, and several long-awaited projects have been quietly killed off.” as I see it, both rules I live by seems to have been lost on Ubisoft and as I see it, it costed them 85% of their business. This is not a small thing, this means that management requires a massive overhaul, because 85% loss means that it is a lot more then the employees, management failed to a large degree. Is there an easy option? I think that Ubisoft needs to reinvent themselves and try to safe their products one at a time. How? I have no idea, I am a designer of IP and a re-engineer. I am not management, we are different life forms.

Have a great day, my weekend almost started and my Saturday is a mere 148 minutes away.

Not as we know it

The famous and iconic quote by Dr. Leonard McCoy, first stated by Deforest Kelly, after that by Karl Urban. So, it’s space but not as we know it. We are given ‘Abu Dhabi-based space company plans massive $1 billion satellite network’ with the quote “The space technology company, linked to Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed’s International Holding Co. (IHC), will launch its first satellite in October. Nine more are scheduled for next year as the firm builds an AI-powered Earth observation system. CEO Hamdullah Mohib confirmed plans for 40 additional satellites within five years.” Who would have thought that the 2017 movie Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets gave us a look into the actual future?

Of course I went to the cinema, I grew up with the comics of Valerian (in Dutch, where he is called Ravian) one of the comics even gave me the idea for a story with elements based on that setting, I even Included parts of the idea of Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Origin, specifically the The Curse of the Pharaohs part. There were no pharaohs, or curses in my story, but the ships sailing through the weeds and the location of Aten and Duat gave me ideas. But this is about the UAE, who is launching 50 satellites. I have no idea what the competitive yank was doing when Elon Musk (yes, that guy) has launched over 11,500 starlink satellites. But the UAE, is a different matter. I have no idea what area, although some sources gave me “Middle East, Africa, and the surrounding regions”, the question becomes will it include at lest parts of Europe? You see, that would give a massive boost to the UAE streaming channels as they could reach these area’s too and that could mean all kinds of revenue (like advertising). It is me personal view to not include this would be folly. I also see the need to increase YouTubers, TikTok makers, and likeminded local crowds. I can see that the limitations is decently showing for Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah. The world needs to see what the UAE can offer as the resentment for visiting the United States is increasing on a near daily basis, especially as someone ‘claims’ that Cube is now easy pickings (they used a different term). But that warmongering claim and the sounds that we hear as Hegseth criticized NATO allies for not standing with the U.S. during tensions with Iran, questioning the strength of the alliance when allies are unwilling to support U.S. efforts is as some say “going down the wrong pipe”, as such there is a higher need for more diverse information and it might be nice to do that, but I believe that the best view on the Emirates should be given by an Emirati, should be simple, right? And there is enough sample materials. I am privy to see the works of Johny Strides, but there is also “The Ken Continuum” as I see it, plenty of stuff for Emirati’s to show Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah on a near daily basis. I just looked on the recently uploaded vlogs and what I find is ‘Inside Yas Mall Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 | Luxury Shopping & Walking Tour’ from the Canada Family Vlogs. One in one day, there were a few more in 3-6 days and plenty of shorts, but the famous Yas Mall? I would have expected at least a 6-12 in a day and I think it is important for the UAE to show itself and there is plenty of evidence that the Emirati’s love their country, as such I am a little bewildered why there is so little (perhaps there is a reason, but I am unaware of it) And Yas Island has a mall and 4 theme parks. And when. I look towards Sharjah, I get ‘Sharjah Separating From UAE? The Hidden Crisis In UAE Right Now’ I have no idea if that is real (most likely a doom speaker) but something should be done, especially when the UAE is adding 50 satellites and they all want to give and receive all kinds of data (I reckon a lot will be videos). But it is essential that the UAE will upgrade the quality of what is out and about, especially from Emiratis. I saw several good videos in the past for both Abu Dhabi and Dubai, but the pickings are getting slim. Show the people what shopping in Carrefour is like, show Affordables in Khalidiyah mall and Al Wadha mall (a mere example), foodcourts in Dubai, most people in the Commonwealth have never seen Al Baik and that is just the surface of things. Yes, people show us the Dubai Mall (which is lovely) and show us the Bugatti hotel, but there is more. And there are good vloggers, Dubai has Alone in Dubai, which shows us all the splendour of Dubai, I have seen numerous videos from that provider on YouTube. But there should be more, because not everyone likes one particular person, we all have different tastes. I get that, and by showing us more, we learn more and we accept that Dubai and Abu Dhabi needs to be on everyones bucket list especially now that the people tire of the United States. I reckon that with 50 satellites, there will be a lot more interactions and as these 50 satellites come online between now and 2031, it becomes essential to do this, especially as the telecom companies want to grow and there is room for growth especially towards Europe as I see it, so as the UAE shows its technological prowess, it needs to consider what is there to show and at times I think it might be better and these could be more. The UAE set out in 2024, to ‘Chris Hemsworth criticised over tourism ad promoting Abu Dhabi despite ‘notorious’ human rights violations’, which I personally consider BS. What Human Rights violations? The Guardian showed “The international non-governmental advocacy organisation Human Rights Watch (HRW) has said the UAE “invests in a strategy to paint the country as progressive, tolerant, and rights-respecting while carrying out repression against dissent”.” With a massive page where it mentions Khashoggi, Saudi Arabia and we get “The ACTU had said the UAE would be “one of the most repressive countries any Australian government has ever done a bilateral trade agreement with”.” So, where is the evidence? Because all I have seen on YouTube (mostly by British people) is a place that is a lot prettier then Florida ever was, I have not seen any repression and the BS I saw on the dangers in Google Search are as I see it massive lies too. The UAE is seen (by a lot of people as one of the safest places on the planet), plenty of women claimed that they felt safe in Dubai (on their YouTube videos), as such to counter this BS from wannabe human rights phonies it is time now to open the valve, because all this takes time to create traction and the UAE has 5 years to give us a whole range of videos of life in the UAE. I reckon that this is an essential call towards the people in the Emirates and I do believe that you need to see the local settings and as such the UAE has its challenge cut out for them, and I believe that they can meet them, because I see on Twitter (on a daily basis) the proclamation of Emiratis and the love they have for their rulers and their country. I saw a few videos regarding National day and it was clear that these people love their country, I think it is time that this is brought to the larger audience. I saw them as I watched a lot of walkthroughs on the first covid lockdowns. I was in me apartment, nothing to do, as such I watched what was available. London, Toronto, Dubai, Stockholm, Rotterdam and a few other places. As such I also saw the National day parades, cultural performances and I believe it was the first time that I saw the global village in Dubai. The UAE has so much to show, as such I believe it is needed to show it so that these people proclaiming repression, either show us evidence, or shut up. But that might be my oversimplified setting on the matter. But what is now known is that the UAE (with French help) will put 50 satellites in orbit in the next 5 years, as such it is time to see what there is and how it could aid others in seeking optional fortune and challenges. As I see it, the UAE is now where the United States was in 1952, a land of opportunity and as such the larger players and the smaller innovators have a new destination and you might think that the story I started with is merely talk, but consider that the UAE has Dubai+, Dubai One, and Dubai Sports, Shahid, STARZPLAY, OSN+, Abu Dhabi Media Network (ADmn) brands, Abu Dhabi TV, Emarat TV, and Abu Dhabi Sports. So what do you think will happen in 2031? When they grow outside of their UAE borders, they will need materials and that is your opportunity. That is the grow setting that is now getting lost in the United States. Some will go towards Canada, but the Middle East is where it will take on serious grow settings. I reckon that the European script writers are already looking in this direction, because they have materials that might fit in the Emirati media circles. So it will be life for all, but not as we have known it, it will be new and as such it will be interesting to see and it will be enticing. So have a great day today and consider where your future lies and as I read it (might be a typo) ADNOC has 555,845 open jobs. So anyone seeking a job? Have a great day.

The stories created

We all love a good story, we almost all of us saw the “Chris Pratt Parks and Recs blooper” and nearly all of the male watchers had to howl, most women would giggle too but what is clearly a blooper could be seen in a different light, so as I saw some AU Investing dot com (at https://m.au.investing.com/news/economy-news/saudi-arabia-reports-335b-budget-deficit-in-first-quarter-93CH-4406376) setting where we are given ‘Saudi Arabia reports $33.5B budget deficit in first quarter’ all whilst they make sure there is no mention of Iran or the Strait of Hormuz. So what is that? Fear mongering amongst the investors? To be sure there was another matter given “Published Jan 01, 0001 10:00” which is a little over 1950 years before the internet was in existence. They ‘updated’ the story on “Updated May 05, 2026 23:56”, so I hope that this is enough to set the fear of investors at ease. The other stage is what does the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have in their coffers? I reckon it is more than I have ever seen in my life and I reckon that is as truthful as we can consider, the second part is that as the price of oil goes up (by a lot) the reserves that Saudi Arabia has is almost staggering. So if they had 152 million barrels in reserve, that increase could amount to over $5.320B and if they have more (and the surplus is even rated higher) there is almost no deficit (on paper) it would be real if there is no sales, but there are sales, a little less then normal, but that is the stage of war and I gave Saudi Arabia (the UAE too) a way to fight this and Iran could state (openly) that all Gulf State vessels bound for China could move freely and that takes the pressure off too.

It is the simplest way for Iran to keep pressures on the United States and whilst they are looking towards that goal, they could release pressure to China and Japan, because a war on multiple fronts they are unlikely ever to win, but they could try and then the gulf states could remove the Iranian harbour and their railroads, also their refineries. I think it is not a setting they should pressure for, because I have a few more IP settings going the way of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Iran boasted and lost because I took this personally and the eager mind that has nothing to lose is not the one you want to have turned against you.

A simple setting of storytelling, but what makes the story a mere presentation of what could be? It is not the AI analyses, because I am an outlier and outlier get removed and decreased to the mean for ‘error’ decrease but that is also the stage that Ubisoft tried in other ways. “If you try to appease everyone, you merely please no one” it is a life lesson that is applicable to games, life, war and IP and that is the error prone setting that players like Iran never seem to see. But they will learn almost always a few weeks too late, so whilst they start crying “we need a deal” you know that they are worried of what comes next, or even more likely something that happened less than 24 hours ago. It is the beckoning setting of change and whilst some do not ant change, I am eager to see the changes on the board of that setting, because that is where some could fill their pockets to the largest degree. At that point the issue is not what Iran does, but it becomes what the Gulf states are doing and what the United States and Israel are doing or just did, it is all part of that same equation and they are outliers, but the known outliers are an indication of what is and especially as others are ‘deflating these events to the mean’ it is an even more precise setting of what others will do and whilst we cannot trust the western media to the largest extent, this ‘devaluation’ should be seen as what ‘their friends’ want to get presented. So whatever story you accept (even mine), consider why these stories are handed to you because there is a story behind every story and even as that sounds confusing, seeing what is often called “walla” in media production, is the low-level, continuous chatter of a crowd, used to create realistic atmosphere in film, games, or to improve focus, but it could also be seen as the stage of staging misrepresentation of events. Just a thought to entertain.

Have a great day today.

Out of my mind

Yup, this happens. We sometimes lose it and after a few days without sleep. My mind went bah bah too (a black sheep reference) and as such I was driven between the Ubisoft setting (and Article in UK Metro), the options that Saudi Arabia has in entertainment, the NEOM setting and a few more things. As such lets start at the beginning. 

UK Metro is giving us (at https://metro.co.uk/2026/04/30/assassins-creed-doesnt-need-remakes-needs-a-complete-overhaul-28169243/) where we are given ‘Assassin’s Creed doesn’t need remakes, it needs a complete overhaul’, I have had a few thoughts on that in the past, especially when anger hits me as you approach your first fort and tornado’s swirl around that fortress (until you destroyed its canons), it gave me the rudest most violent thoughts (I’ll spare you the details). You see, I know it is a game and not a very realistic one. My largest issue is that it is not really an Assassins Creed game, it could have been a legendary upgrade from Sid Meier’s Pirates, it never went there. And beside the excellent graphics there was a lot more, but there were annoying parts too (like running like the Prince of Persia after shanties), it was the setting that I gave the phrase ‘If you want to appease everyone, you’ll end up pleasing no one’ it came to blows there and more afterwards. Then we get “The original Assassin’s Creed failed to live up to this promise. It was highly repetitive and pretty shoddy despite its visual splendour, while the sci-fi Animus twist largely got in the way of the 12th century hijinks. The series, however, executed on its original promise with Assassin’s Creed 2, which replicated the Italian Renaissance period with a dynamite (and still series’ best) protagonist in Ezio, who led its two sequels Brotherhood and Revelations.” I disagree, there is truth in all that, but Assassins Creed delivered originality and a stellar script. Running around in Accra and Jerusalem was a boyhood dream come true. Yes, there was repetition, it was originally release on the PS3 20 years ago. A system with 512MB memory with a 20GB hard drive. There were still limitations in those days, but the game gave as good as we can expect from any system in those days and AC2 surpassed it beautifully. So whilst I created the setting for new updates in usage for the Ubisoft titles, Metro also gives us “Assassin’s Creed games aren’t known for their bold narratives, but maybe a radical, unexpected shift in setting could spark some creative verve. Go more contemporary with a Second World War spy slant, or lean into the sci-fi premise and shoot forwards in time instead. Fundamentally, surprise people with something fresh beyond the swords and sandals.” A setting I disagree with, don’t get me wrong. They are partially right with that view, but there were only three greats in RPG like story telling. There was Bethesda (something about scrolls), there was Bioware with Dragons and Mass Effect and there was Ubisoft. In those days these made the hits and the lines. As far as I know there was nothing like Assassins Creed and I never got all the flags (at least three attempts were made playing from start to stop) and I never regretted any hours I played that game. Could more be done? Perhaps, but then I would have to do this. I don’t hod anything against the makers of the first three games. They delivered. 

So a rewrite of the entire Assassins creed is possible, but where? Consider that the Playstation and Switch2 are there, so is the PC and whatever console Microsoft has. An entire overhaul would have been possible on streaming systems, but that is wet stuff under the bridge (I believe they call this water). The next part of the disagreed issues is given with “Assassin’s Creed is one of the biggest franchises in gaming, and was once a creative force in the realm of third person action games, but Ubisoft has allowed it to coast into an outdated and predictable mould. It’s about time it stopped dredging up the past, and gave players an exciting, rejuvenated reason to be excited about its future.” I agree with this, but there is some disagreement. Especially the ‘outdated and predictable mould’ yes they are outdated, but they were good, there is a reason heart beat faster at the sight of the Ezio collection, there is genuine love for AC Shadows and that is not outdated. And as the predictability, there is a partial agreement, but I want Stealth games, I want that rush of  sneaking up on a person (in a game mind you) from behind and use a karambit to give him a necktie red colouring scheme (those who know, know). 

An overhaul might be called for to get rid off the prince of Persia parts. I don’t mind the shanties, which makes for a lovely pirate lore, but they should go about it different. Including buying them from entertainers, buying musical instruments in general stores and a few other places (like in a commanders room in a fortress). All options and the difference of the attempts gives us the diversification. As I have been replaying Black Flag the last few days (I only opened 70% of the achievements), there is a need to get more of them, although I do not think I will get them all. 

So I agree with the overhaul, but not because of the ‘outdated and predictable mould’, I believe that if Ubisoft slams (and deletes) the setting of ‘If you want to appease everyone, you’ll end up pleasing no one’ because that was the undoing of that franchise. On the other side. I already handed Ubisoft 2 directions, one with the language approach as over 3 billion people are learning languages and the next one is the creation of immersive storylines, making it a collection of books and that can be done with a whole range of locations in Assassins Creed and Watchdogs, although 1 and 2 are in the United States and they haven’t spoken English in decades, so there is that. I placed in my blog the Idea for a Watchdogs 4 which I placed in Kyoto, it was essential to do it there and have a hard mode which would stumble the gamer in Japanese, but there would be glasses, like smart glasses and I did that somewhere in 2018/2019.

But for Assassins Creed, there are a few other settings, but the bulk is OK as far as I can tell, going all the way back to the first Assassins Creed, which was in 1191 (sorry, a Dr. Who joke). The part that was stellar was the storyline, the entire assassins/templar setting was never given to a gamer before, no one ever had the ‘audacity’ to give us the combination of reality with storyline before (as far as I know), so when we look at an overhaul we tend to agree, because the game has taken such a large setting over the last 20 years that everyone agrees with one of more games. I reckon except the ‘Ezio’ games, they are close to perfect it had a 90%, a 87% and a 82%. Revelations made the mistake of too much Prince of Persia, but I could live with that. The only part I disagree on was Brotherhood, the stealth was more demanding and better and whilst some ‘complain’ the tasks were much more on par and defining, I haven’t touched this game close to a decade, so I might pick it up again.

So there is much to agree to and even more to disagree to. Even my stuff is subjective and I get that it might rub people the wrong way, this is simply as gaming is highly personal and we all have our own cloud of gaming in mind, I get that. So am I against the article in Metro or in favour? That’s hard to say, they touch on issues that are real, but it goes against 20 years of programming and the fact that we all play according to our desire in play, so overall I am is disagreement on the article, but it touches on a few very real settings that we all agree with and with a franchise this big that is to be expected, one last part is that I haven’t played AC Shadows for a while and I haven’t finished it as I never beat Joken Hokkyo, after a dozen times I just gave up. That happens too. I am not always in the best headspace for some moments in time. The open fight at the end was too taking and not very Assassins Creed.

Reselling is the art

Is it? Or is the art of reselling the game? And they might sound the same, but they are not exactly the same. Confused? That is not the goal, but it comes with the territory. To get this setting, I have to take you back to last September when I gave you (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2025/09/09/one-thought-of-many/) ‘One thought of many’ I gave that seeing at least twice more, but that might be one of the first times. You see, I was replaying Black Flag and it got me thinking and for some reason I was thinking of some corny advertisement of a romantic novella setting. I never read them, but in the Netherlands they were famous.

I reckon that every nation has these in their local language, optionally they are translated, but that is a fact I have no idea on. What does matter that this series has appeal with over 2.5 billion female readers. There are also these novella’s for the male, optionally they are pirate, spy, Jetsetter stories. What matter is that there is now a 5 billion target area. And Ubisoft ha the inner track on this. So as I was playing Black Flag and walking through Havana and Nassau the idea hit me. So when you take away the assassin setting and you keep the places the same, and it would be limited to a location (like Havana/Nassau) and optionally other locations in other games and you can only walk in these places and optionally through a Apple Vision Pro/MetaQuest and you don’t read the story, you play and live the story. I reckon that you can have 5 stories per location and optionally the eagle vision shows the people you need to talk to and progress through the story. You could make more of it, but at first we have the storyline and the way to proceed and that is the story. The story is the live played on the places you normally read about. The next step in novella’s and Ubisoft already has the locations. Consider Jerusalem, Florence, Venice, Forli, Rome, Boston, New York City, Havana, Nassau, Kingston, Paris, Versailles, Alexandria, Memphis, Heraklion, Bagdad, Kyoto, Osaka and several more. This needs no creation, Ubisoft already made the locations, made the art. Now you only need the engine to be altered to let the story flow and you can have 5-9 stories per location and even there, there are short cuts. They merely need to use one location to see if it has the appeal. My voice goes towards Rome with stories for the masses regardless of gender. And with DML and a small investment in these novels you can make  several of them, all unique and perhaps with a creation system and it is all additional revenue for Ubisoft. It becomes what matters in a new direction, not what it was meant for, but what else can be done with this and I reckon with the MetaQuest, it becomes a lot more engaging, the nice side is that there is a massive lack of innovation for these devices, so Ubisoft could enjoy a much larger share of that attention. As everything is due to evolution, why not how we read stories? An engaged form of literature, brought to your eyesight. And when in Rome, you could always consider The Golden Ass (Metamorphoses) by Apuleius. From modern, to classic and educational. This is the age of reinventing the idea that already is and Ubisoft has a tremendous advantage here.

Just my idea on how to go next. And whilst Ubisoft get another version of the same in a new coat with a new audience, they might consider even other paths. Paths I never thought of. So this was the third setting that started messing with my mind two days ago. I have not completed that journey and made you aware. 

Have a great day. Still three hours to go until I wish myself a good morning.

Perhaps pirate plow?

That is the stage we see and we can go in any direction you want. I am not being mean or negative, because I have not played Black Flag Resynced and that should be the operative setting if you want to judge it. I have the original and I got it on day 1. So when I saw the ‘reviews’ stating that it is the most ‘successful’ AC game ever released, I went “wait a minute” there are a few facts that are ‘overlooked’. I got the PS4 on opening night and I got 2 games. The first one I returned the day after. It was the worst game I ever played. It was Killzone. It wasn’t my choice in gaming, but the choices on day one were exceedingly limited. When you looked down at your feet, they dance the jig, there were a few other issues, but it was not the game of choice. So a few weeks later AC Black Flag came out, so I used the cash to get that game. I reckon that is why Black Flag did so well, it was out in the first month and it was good, we can argue how good, but it was more than a head above all others games, so it had an excellent timing schedule. That benefit is no longer here. That does not mean that it will be a bad game, good games usually end up well. 

I had a few issues with the original (like music sheet chasing) and a few other settings. You see, I never regarded it ask AC game, a good game, not an AC game. But overall what I just saw is that the graphics are definitely improved, if it was originally 80%, it is now a definite 95% and that is just the graphics. There is not much more to say. I reserve my feelings towards changes made. I see that part as mostly ‘presented views’ on the parts that might not have been seen as great. I have the issue that there is too much fighting. A real AC game is taking out the enemy before they are aware you are there. But that is just me. 

So, will I try the new game? It depends on how the play throughs are shown. How stealthy is it? That matters to me, perhaps for others too. Then there are the settings of the new missions, the ‘altered’ views and the improvements to the Jackdaw. I get that a 100% transfer his unlikely to work, no matter how the graphics are. But the original game had promise, so it has the inner working for it to be a really great game and after 13 years there are all kinds of people who never played that game. So if you want to plow pirates, there is enough to make the cake delicious.

So whilst IGN gives us “Much remains to be seen of how well these new additions will be integrated into Black Flag’s original content, and how the game’s existing missions may have been tweaked, too. After years of leaks, though, we now at least have a better idea what to expect — and that July 9 release date on the horizon, which is now just three months’ away.” I personally have two issues. I personally believe that these so called ‘leaks’ are tempting data collectors on how to get a game more for ‘everyone’ and I have always believed that when you try to appease everyone, you will please no one and that is a setting I fully believe. As such there is a problem within Ubisoft. Either they have no security on their games, or they are testing the waters (for years) by feeding some people the parts and this puts the game at the test. But consider the rule I set as the most important one “when you try to appease everyone, you will please no one”, so when you see the ‘improvement’ to parkour running, what are they setting? How is that a AC game? It could be, but I merely wonder. As for the best game, we see the publications that AC black flag is the most popular one, personally I like AC Origins the most, closely followed by AC Brotherhood and AC2. Of course others might have another view and that is fine. We will see in the second week of July how the game is accepted and how others see this game. 

Will the game hit home? I am curious to see what comes from this. No matter how it is seen, I wish Ubisoft the best of success, because luck is not a factor here. 

Have a great day

Learning from the lesson

I recently replayed ME3, it was because I have had the legendary version for a long time and I decided to play it on the PS5. It was a fun time, and it made me remember the idea’s I had for Mass Effect 5 about two years ago. After I played Andromeda (long after it was released) and because my funds were limited, the amount of negative press stopped me from buying it at release time (or soon thereafter) it wasn’t until I saw it in a bargain box for $5 that I picked it up, I was after all still curious. And I saw the resentment most players had I was oddly in agreement. The game was to some extent rushed, I saw other flaws. But there was a shining light in that game and the game illuminated a lot of it. As such I started to design the 5th game. To make it more appealing I decided to combine it with Andromeda, so the larger play stayed. I did get rid of the memory triggers. They made no sense. The idea that a trigger on an unexplored world would be the key in something essential. There are more setting, but that was the one that made the least sense. 

The idea was to set to the actual size of the Hyperion to scaled in the settings, then there is the ark (a lot larger) and the other arks will be added over time. The mission games stay at the same level, but trough the Hyperion and nexus we get additional missions and storylines added to the game. There are some limitations that are removed over time (and as the story of ME5 progresses) but that would eliminate the triggers and we get human, durian and the other arks. 

But this is just window dressing. The original did do a good job to transfer the battle settings of the game and as this is enhanced in the new game, we get other settings too. Eos and Voeld will move in opposite directions, as Eos cools down, and becomes more and more fertile, Voeld will warm up and do the same. The setting will erupt when Voeld will get its original life forms evolving in the game. But the setting will give us a few other allowances. But figure this small fat. ME Andromeda was created in 2017, it is now almost 10 years later and still absence from all kinds of revelations? I created this setting over 2 years ago, which does not mean anything. But as I see it, I created over half a dozen games in my mind and set some to my blog for others to create the games and optionally the lore that these games imbue. But the lesson learned is that these so called game developers are set to lose whatever they designed. Others take over these gaming studios for the betterment of profit and as such they drive the excelling powers of game creators away. Electronic Arts, Microsoft and optionally Ubisoft too. As some state “the gaming industry is undergoing a turbulent restructuring, balancing record revenues exceeding $184 billion with intense market correction, including roughly 45,000 jobs lost since 2022”  So corporate greed is endangering the gaming world. And whilst we see some (for now) escape that. One example is Guerrilla Games and optionally Avalanche games. There are considerations that it is now optionally too late for Bethesda Gaming studios, but if they unstrangle themselves from Microsoft they might have a chance. There is all almost unwritten rule that creativity stands opposite greed. Some will come with ‘but there is’, in the end they are either part of the creative cloud or the greed cloud and those do not mix. Consider these studios and see where they went wrong. You’ll see it when the cloud gets a clear identity. Consider the setting I voiced and see how I created some form of Elder Scrolls 6 in 2014, ME5 in 2018 and a few more. Do you think I was more intelligent than they were, or did they get rid of the creative minds that stood in the way of their greed? It is merely a speculative view, but as I see it, it holds water. 

The world is getting more and more aware of the hidden dangers of gaming and that is why the PC is losing ground to Nintendo, because as these gamers see it, Nintendo has forever been about fun and that is what gamers sign up for. It is followed by Sony and the rest of them have become an optional problem. Even the setting of streaming games is now in danger of being warped into something different. 

As I see it, the only solution is to give the indie world the ideas for good games and whenever that happens, the greed driven community loses out. They are too small for the game exploiters (like Microsoft) and when these ideas pay off, these exploiters will have to pay through the roof for an empty shell and I move on giving more ideas to new indie gamers. I might not make anything, the only thing I see is that I created more and more creative solutions and my place in the universe is set. 

Anyway, before I give more thought to the Third Horizon game (I already did, but I am awaiting what Guerrilla comes up with) and there is Bethesda who (through channels) made claim that TES6 was at least 5 years away and whilst that was the case, I constructed the idea of an Elder Scrolls 6 in mere weeks. Technology would take longer, but would it take 10 years? As said “Microsoft finalized its $7.5 billion acquisition of ZeniMax Media, the parent company of Bethesda Softworks, in March 2021” and in those 5 years the gaming world suffered. So what does it take to ‘streamline’ billions of gamers through Microsoft? Well, I for one am not ready to find out. Where Microsoft gets involved gaming suffers and as I see it Redfall (2023) might be the most clear evidence of that. As one reviewer states “Redfall is a bafflingly bad time across the board.” And the setting does not end there, the gaming world is in danger and Microsoft made it so. We might want to rely on Guerrilla games and other s to save us, but they are doing their thing and we all have to step up to secure our gaming world, whatever it is and I am primarily focussing on Nintendo and Sony, there are others, but to some extent they are already under the Microsoft spell and whilst we are ignorant of that setting, we are allowing another US administration to come for our sanity. That springs from the old saying “The more complex the mind, the greater the need for the simplicity of play”, it comes from Star Trek, episode ‘shore leave’ (1967). As I see it, it is one of the clear sentiments that has been part of all our lives. And there is enough evidence to support it. So we can still still until a new game comes along, or we can fuel the innovators in programming and gaming to give them the ideas that could relax our minds, I personally choose the second option. If the stage is set on exchange of ideas, this is the only idea that makes sense to me, as such I will imbue the indie game makers with ideas to fuel our sanity. Life works in unintended ways doesn’t it?

So whilst my brain is contemplating additional settings for Mass Effect: Emerging Worlds and I transformed Elder Scrolls 6 for other uses, there are a few other ideas that could use my time for exploring. I created some thoughts on Hogwarts Legacy 2 and I leave Horizon 3 alone for now, they created 2 amazing games and I will let them create their thoughts in a new game I would want to explore on day one. Still, my mind considered a few steps, so I am curious to see what they come up with. I am not the only creative mind, as such I love to see what others come up with. So let the world of game creators dazzle my mind by showing me what they can come up with.

Have a great day.

Who sets the stage?

That is at times and particularly now the question. Metro UK gives us ‘Sony has not choice but to release the PS6 in 2027 but it’s huge risk’, first of all, who decides this? Metro? The audience? I think it is up to Sony to decide this and I am open to a release of the PS6 at some time. But at present, my PS5 (the non-pro edition) is doing ints bit right and proper and as I see it, there is only the Nintendo that is a possible ‘threat’ and I see no reason why the Sony people cannot have a Nintendo Switch (1 or 2) next to it. I still have my PS4pro as well. Both are behaving particularly nice. So what gives? Games? The ones that are coming in 2026 are well adjusted to the PS5 and so is are the ones also facilitating to the PS4. So why would we need a PS6?

Don’t get me wrong I would be happy to have one if there are games that go way beyond the need of the PS5pro, but the only games that might (might being a stretch) get to the edge of the PS5 pro are allegedly Wolverine and optionally Horizons 3.

I imagine a setting where the PS6 could be the Horizon start tile, but I would love to see this release with the trilogy release with Zero Dawn, Frozen Wastes, Forbidden West and Burning Shores as part of this trilogy release. These would be a must for all PS6 gamers. But is that the case? Is Horizons 3 running at the edge of what is possible on the PS5pro? I doubt it, because the makers made it to run on the PS4 pro like a Swiss watch. Wolverine is still not in a golden status, as such it is possible and we see what is possible and we love it, but is it demanding a PS6?

So where does metro come with ‘Sony has no choice’? As is see it, Sony has plenty of options, especially as Microsoft dropped the bal and their balls on the gaming industry, Sony has plenty of choice so whilst wee are given “Namely, if there’s the demand businesses will produce the commodity to satisfy it and if not, they won’t (or else go under). But things are rarely that simple and Sony are its proof.” So this is called an idiots premise. The business doesn’t demand, teenagers without money desire it, that is not a demand, it is folly. And whilst we see that there are teenagers making demand, it is seemingly merely the people who trusted Microsoft for all the wrong reasons. They are not even steam deck masters. So whilst Metro needs to give a real reason (best with supporting data) there is the setting that we filter out the wannabe’s without cash, which takes care of allegedly several millions of wannabe’s.

Oh, and there is another side, whilst many are awaiting Hogwarts Legacy 2, there is every chance that this will require a non pro PS5 to run smoothly. So whilst many gamers are now looking in getting the additional Nintendo Switch 2, we see that the gaming era is changing. Now that Microsoft is likely leaving the scene, the actual gamers will focus on enlarging their focal points. Some will get a steam deck, see will add Nintendo to their domain, but the Sony domain is clear, it is set and it is in that gamers life. I have my PS5 and I am happy beyond believe. At some point I will consider the PS5pro, but at present, my PS5 is doing what it needs to do and it does it well. 

I am merely wondering if WW3 comes to town if I can still play my console if I am glowing in the dark. There is a lesson here, but I cannot see it. No matter what happens, I got Aloy to come out of the forbidden west victoriously even with the plus game requirements largely filled. So will we get a new Hogwarts? Likely but not before 2027, as such the need for a PS6 before 2028 is likely ludicrous and that makes sense. 

Consider the following timelines:
PS3 – November 2006
PS4 – November 2015
PS5 – November 2020

As such there will not be a PS6 before 2028, but there is another level and we are forgetting that. The games, we can see that the games pushed the hardware, only when we saw The last of us on PS3 did we realise that the limits of the PS3 were reached and it showed its superiority again on the PS4. Zero Dawn did the same for the PS4 in 2017 and that was proven the moment the PS5 appeared. I reckon that we will see several games that will push the PS5 (or PS5pro) to the limits. There is a chance that Wolverine will push those limits, but it is unlikely. The PS5 is just too powerful, but that doesn’t mean that Insomniac won’t reach these limits. Time will tell, and that will give us a real anticipated release date. Still the games are only part of this and the sudden chance of a war will also stop these hardware frolics from becoming reality (that and this so called fake AI). We see escalations and the demand for more and better stuff comes when limits are reached and as I personally see it, the PS5 is nowhere near these limits. These limits are not reached because some developer thinks he needs them, he get there by delivering short of where he wanted to get and that require people like Hideo Kojima flexing his muscles, only to realise that he cannot flex them any further. I this trend I have only seen Mathijs de Jonge (Guerrilla Games) and John Blackburn (Avalanche Software) get there in the last 20 years and they seemingly have not reached the limits of the PS5, so we have time. 

As I see it, Sony has choice and plenty of time. They merely need to keep the gamers on the 92.2 million PlayStation 5 happy and as I see it, we are plenty happy. The offside of the cow that influencers try to persuade there is require data and they cannot hand is data, merely conjecture (if at all). Metro UK should keep that in mind. We are happy because we get to play the games and we would like to play more games, so players like Bethesda and Ubisoft might remake some of their games for the PS5, it does help, but it would be better if they consider making games that will genuinely take us to the edge of the PS5, only then when we have these titles and we are considering that it could have gone further will we see the impending need of the PS6. 

Have a great day gaming today on whatever system you like to game on. My weekend ends in 87 minutes, darn.
