Nooooo Daaaaag

Whyyyyyyyyyyyy

[lucyintheskywithtemplars]

I just realized the tags in the last post were "on the one hand" etc and I'm about to punch myself because of it, sob

[lucyintheskywithtemplars]

Oh. OH.

"Take My Hand"?

And a fuck you, too, Ubisoft.

[lucyintheskywithtemplars]

Whoops skipping ahead again, and I have Many, Many Words.

Chief among them is Hey, Hey. Where they train Zealots? In Dover??? Ahahahaaaa... nope. Fuck this. Avoid this shit

(Four days later:) Oh, so it's not where they train Zelalots, its NEAR where they train Zealots! Okay! Okay. Good. Less stress.

Wait a second, this whole time I've been super stealthy, avoid all confrontation, not even complete raids on Forts etc because I wanted to avoid drawing out the Zealots In Training, and you're telling me this whole time I didn't have to worry about that??!!?!?! What the heckery, Ubisoft!

[lucyintheskywithtemplars]

Sigurd you're acting kind of Cult-leader-like, what--

OH SHIT. WAIT. When do we find out the Prophecy? I mean, do we know when it was first figured out? I know its from ACII and the Brotherhood and Order both know it and apparently (IIRC) it said that the prophet is the person who appeared at a certain place at a certain time. (With the Apple? I don't remember clearly, it's been legit yeeeears since I played ACII.)

Was the Prophecy known at this point, 874 CE? When it mentions a location, does it say specifically Venice in the late 1400s, or is it more mystical like "At a city of/on/surrounded by water, at a time of great prosperity"? Well, in comparison to the West Roman Empire (RIP) at this point.

In other words: does Basim think that Sigurd is the prophet?????

[lucyintheskywithtemplars]

LMAOOO I've made it a bit further than my last update, whoops

To recap: I did the Ledecestrescire / Grantebridgescire quests in the wrong order (Soma, then the Ragnarsons), I fucking love Soma, I almost picked the wrong lieutenant (would have if I didn't take another chance ti run around and happened upon the yellow longship), the brothers grew on me, I have no emotions re: Ceowulf but ALL THE EMOTIONS, SO MANY, FOR CEOLBERT.

The East Anglia quest threw me but in a good way, I want to interact more with Valdis, and I didn't get to keep Finnr but he seems happy in a Gokudera-ish kind of way, so I'm happy for him.

Anyway. What The Fuck.

Oxenefordscire! I was so happy to see Sigurd again! I love my brother! But now. HMMMMMMMMM

Police operation near Ubisoft: Streets blocked, people on the roof

One Ubisoft employee said he was barricaded inside a room with coworkers, and police were there sweeping the building.

Montreal police are carrying out an operation near Ubisoft’s offices on St-Laurent Blvd. and there are dozens of people on the roof. [...]

St-Viateur St. and several cross streets including St-Laurent, Waverly and St-Dominique were blocked off to create a police perimeter. A helicopter flew overhead. Just after 3 p.m., a half-dozen members of a tactical squad, one holding a machine gun, had approached the Ubisoft building from the east by way of St-Viateur.

Police are asking people to avoid the area.

There are no injuries reported and police said they couldn’t confirm news reports that the tactical squad is responding to a possible hostage-taking.

“I can only confirm that an operation is in progress to validate (the reports),” said Constable Véronique Comtois. She said police were investigating an incident in a commercial building on St-Laurent near St-Viateur. [...]

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante said her team is following the situation closely and in communication with police.“

We deployed our paramedic supervisor and our medical tactical team to the scene to help out with the SPVM,” said Valérie Tremblay. [...]

Ubisoft staff were on the roof of the Ubisoft building in Mile End. They used furniture to barricade the doors. It’s not clear how many people are involved or whether a hostage-taking situation is unfolding, a Ubisoft employee who did not want his name used told The Montreal Gazette.

New Update:

Report: Ubisoft Montreal's hostage situation may have been a hoax

Dozens of employees barricaded themselves on the roof of the company's Montreal office following a call to 911.

[el-shab-hussein]

From the update:

News outlets in Montréal are reporting that the call may have been a hoax and a possible swatting situation. Swatting, as it's called, is an increasingly common way to harass people by placing emergency calls claiming a violent situation is underway, which results in these type of heavily armed responses by police. [...]

Eric Pope, a senior developer at Ubisoft who was working remotely, reported in a tweet that he was on a call with others in the office when they had to leave abruptly. Shots from a news helicopter show that some of the team gathered on the roof of the company's building. Ubisoft management reportedly urged employees to go into hiding once it received word of the emergency call. [...]

It's unclear exactly what the motive behind any hostage situation may be. If the call really was a hoax, it could have been over something as small as a gamer frustrated about Assassin's Creed Valhalla's poor optimization. Swatting calls are often placed by young kids as retaliation over minor beefs with other gamers. People struggle to find the source of the calls thanks to VoIP software, but reports indicate the call in this incident was placed from inside Ubisoft's office.

One quick post because I've only had about 30 minutes to play tonight, and it's this:

Way to throw shade at Bethesda, Ubisoft, when your games can be Just As Glitchy!

[lucyintheskywithtemplars]

Ubisoft confirmed:

Reda (merchant kiddo from Origins) is ACTUALLY IMMORTAL*, I am dying, this is amazing!

*They didn't actually confirm shit, this is just a mythology gag, but. WHAT IF IT REALLY IS REDA?????
