Oh man these games.
I started with Lego chess I think, then graduated to Lego island 2, then finally hit my stride with Lego Star wars onwards (Batman, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, LOTR, etc). I loved every minute of them. I still haven't finished the Skywalker saga but I'll have to get around to it sooner or later.
I also spent a good bit of time as a kid playing the games Lego kept on their website, like the bionicle flash game, Lego backlot studio (or something like that, it was 3d and you'd hunt down props for people), and whatnot.
Lots of fond memories for a kid with a rough home situation. Thanks for the walk down memory lane OP
It's definitely hard to break into it, it's a specialty that requires experience, and no one seems willing to train. Tons of money around if you have 10-15 years under your belt, but you'll starve before you find a junior position
Haven't played an AC release in ages. If they follow the classic formula instead of the 3000000+ hour RPG filled with busywork I might be willing to pick it up at 50% off simply due to the setting appealing to me. I have many criticisms of the series, but the environments are beautiful and I love to explore them as a microcosm of the era.
Reasonable? Big pass from me chief. Grinding Gear Games isn't some indie studio that needs every penny anymore, the just used the inertia to get people used to dropping 300$ on a game
