00:47:45 - I’ve been playing through Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and came across a mission titled Island of Misfortune where you must pay someone 15000 of the game’s currency.I’m wondering what your opinion is on this. There is no real gameplay to this, the player isn’t doing anything and doesn’t have a choice if they wish to progress, does this feel like a lazy attempt at forcing the player to grind or pay up? - Cameron Kennedy

00:51:30 - My question is a follow up on Assassin's Creed Odyssey, specifically for Greg. I've seen continued discussion over the "Permanent XP Boost" in the game, and want to know your (Greg's) take on it and what's your thoughts on the progression systems in the game. - Sean - Maple Grove, MN
