    Yeah online sucks, feels like a copy paste of gta online which was lame. Love the story though, really captures the atmosphere, and the story telling and references are perfect!

    Absolutely disgusting.

    Ubisoft won me over with Origins and I got the Gold Edition of Odyssey as a result. But as quickly as they won me over, they just lost my trust.

    I will be requesting a refund on the Gold Edition. If they can't give me my money back for that, I'll happily take a refund on the whole game. We'll see if they oblige.

    I can't be complicit in this kind of ****ty developer behaviour. GLAAD needs to revoke their nomination of this game.

    As for the "fix" I really don't know what anyone was expecting. They have a roadmap and they can't deviate too far to fix it I'm afraid.
    It's funny, Witcher 3 Heart of Stone had a similar problem in which it forces you to bang Shani (which really irritated me as I remained faithful to Yen after the romance quest) however, you could evade the romance by failing her side mission/optional quest although it made Geralt look like a jerk for abandoning her in her time of need.

    I believe Ubisoft will learn from this in future in a similar way by implementing even more ways to make choices other than dialogue...or maybe they will not chop and change when choices is available.

    I do feel sorry for anyone this has soured the game for though after 100s of hours of gameplay.
    TW3 never had a forced Shani romance. You were able to get out of it with dialogue options.

    And there were plenty of easy fixes to this.

    The easiest of which is getting rid of the romantic cutscenes altogether. It doesn't ****ing get easier than that. They don't even need to replace them. We'll fill in the blanks with head canon.

    Ubisoft needs to understand that 2 people don't need to be in LOVE to have a baby. Okay, your character needs a kid, great. They don't need to enter a common law relationship with someone to ****ing do that.

    This fix is a blatant insult

    Well I'm not one to post in forums or what not, but I have been waiting weeks for this patch so I can finally play part 2 of the DLC. Imagine my joy when I found out there would be a hot fix today. Now imagine my extreme PISSED OFFNESS at the CRAP I just spent the last 5 hours running! I never interacted with the first release of this chapter but how could anyone think this is any better? Still all the forced flirting, feelings, and a child. Sure I'd love for Kassandra to have a family one day, no where near Nalatakus. I don't even like him as a character and to be forced to interact with him with feelings I would never choose for my Kassandra is just outrageous. Nor would I ever choose to settle Kassandra down in a 'sunshine and rainbows' happy home life. The entire concept is unrealistic and forced into the story where I never wanted it. Hell I'd take a forced romance with Alcibiades, at least his character was actually written with a spine and more personality than a wet blanket and knows to leave when the fun is over.

    Sorry, very much anger. I will return to my second run now. Luckily I haven't started the DLC on it, and will try my hardest to pretend I never saw any of this supposed fix to a forced fairy tale 50's cliché family.

    EXACTLY as I predicted ...... The people that were mad will never get over it no matter what Ubisoft does so they should have just done nothing because now the people that weren't mad are mad they ended up with a bug ridden mess because resources were put to a rewrite that should have been used for bug fixing this messy spaghetti code

    There is just no logical way around the FACT it take a man, a woman, and a Baby to start a new bloodline ...... Without the baby there is no Assassin Bloodline

    You can have your own opinions but you can't have your own facts ..... It takes a man and a woman to procreate and everyone wants to pretend it's otherwise

    Procreation takes a man and a woman .... If that pizzes you off then blame God or Mother Nature or Gaia or whatever .....

    Sex just takes two willing subjects (keyword: willing) and gender is largely irrelevant

    Stop confusing Sex with Procreation

    The procreation was never really the problem for me, just the lovey-dovey-ness of ít all... Natakass is soooo boring and bland, Kassandra suddenly turns into the cliche of a 1950s giggling housewife... come one, you can't by any measure of objectiveness accept this as an example of good writing. It's a complete sh'tshow, that's what it is.

    Love isn't required to procreate. The depiction of the relationship is the problem.

    You absolutely could. It's a 100% avoidable romance (I avoided it in my playthrough).
