Today's game is Assassin's Creed Revelations. I went and finished the main story. The Main Story makes me just feel the need to ask, why are the main games like 13 sequences? Like, i love the long stories but i find these games with only 9 sequences to also be perfectly serviceable. It definitely helped a lot with playing them back to back and feels a lot less like there was a crunch too.

Also from what i understand, Brotherhood and Revelations were smaller games meant to keep up the annual release of the franchise until 3 was finished. I wish they had kept doing that if they insist on the yearly release. Give us some direct sequels that are smaller in size and scope and give the "big" sequel more time in the oven. I can't help but feel like having one studio dedicated to an individual release so we get one release a year is hurting the games.

I also wanted to mention that i loved the whole segment with Ezio and Altair. Followed by Ezio talking to Desmond. I love that it's doing all the weird ass time stuff without messing with time travel. Plus i loved Ezios speech to Desmond.

Anyways, i found a way to get ahold of the DLC for this and play it, so i want to do that. I only have a little bit left at this point to 100% though so i think i want to do that first. The main struggle has just been getting 7 Master Assassins. It's a lot of waiting around here for them to level up. Admittedly if i was going to do this though i should have done it earlier. This one is kind of on me i feel.

The Ubisoft launcher is a real pain to get working on Linux, at least for me it has been. There's no official support so it's all through WINE and such but it can be hit or miss in my expedience.

The thing that really pisses me off about it is that everything Pre-Unity refuses to stay signed in. I’ve ended up setting up a whole new Keychain app just so I can copy and paste the password easily.

I think to get the launcher to work itself I had a few hiccups but if I remember correctly I had to run under Proton Experimental to get it to install, then I could use any version of Proton I like
