  [h2] Just Get Ghost of Tsushima. [/h2] [b] IT HAS: [/b] [list] [*]The Same premise (nearly down to a T) [*]Better controls. (seriously, AC: S has the most clunky controls ever) [*]You don't get weird narrative choices. (you know what I mean) [*]Better Voice Acting. [*]Better execution of the story. [*]Comparable Graphics [*]Doesn't lie about being historical fiction. (unlike Ubislop, who hires discredited "Historians" to change the history around their "Historical Characters") [*]Little to no Load Screens. (You only get a literal millisecond of load time on death) [*]Doesn't overdo the side activities. [*]The fog of war isn't a bitch. [*]You don't have to put up with the tired Templar's evil plot. (just straight unapologetic revenge) [*]The Stealth is way better. (much closer to OG AC games) [*]The UI only appears when you actually need it. [*]The ambiance is more immersive. [*]The enemies properly scale. [*]It doesn't have a recycled "go here and assassinate these targets" main story for every series installment like Ubislop has. [*]It's optional to connect the thirdparty platform if you don't want it. (unlike Ubislop where it's built in) [*]It's your game, you can do what you want with it. [*]It's reasonably priced and goes on sale often (unlike Ubislops "AAAA" $70 mess) [/list] [h3] And the best for last... The company isn't going under anytime soon like Ubislop is! [/h3]

  How is this game crashing my PC. I am far above the minimum requirements and this game is next to unplayable with all the crashes. Not sure how anyone else can stand this. Worthless copy and paste response. I have already done all of those things and just had another crash. This is why I refuse to pay full price for your crappy crashing bloatware. Install all of our extra cookies and spies otherwise you will have a bad experience. Glad I give up access to my computer to you hacks.

  I have had a great time with this installment of AC! I have played for 34 hours at this point and am nowhere near the end of the game. If you like to explore this is great for that, combat it pretty satisfying too.

  fun, tsushima is better in almost all aspects but it is one of the better new ACs

  Busywork, the video game. I have a lot of hours in AC titles in the past, and have loved them, but I am having the hardest time getting through this one. It's just open map, select marker, run to marker, do repetitive boring activity. There's barely any game in my video game. Not to mention I spend most my time waiting for the UI to load after the map opens, or in dialogue/shop UI, because the game is so poorly optimised. No other AC has been this bad with such issues. Audio desyncing in cutscenes, character animations being so poor they're on par with early 2000s games, the camera getting stuck on every little object in combat (with no occlusion?). It has some positives. A gorgeous world, lots to learn about the era/region, a decent combat system. But after a while, you see the same copy-pasted assets, the same copy-pasted enemies, the same copy-pasted gameplay. It's just so uninspired and sloppy. The game 100+ gigabytes, yet it feels so hollow. Ubisoft does not do well with characters and story, and that would be OK, if they didn't feel like they had to include it in every aspect of their games. Stop trying to make the characters likeable when the story shoves them to the side to focus on these mysterious organisations you know nothing about. I will say, I really enjoyed Yasuke's flashback scenes, the only time I found myself actually paying attention to what people were saying/doing in the game. But then they write dialogue as if you know these characters and are their best friends. Why am I calling Tomiko family after having two sentences worth of dialogue with her? It's bizarre. There was no creative direction, or goal in mind for the development. It was just "the same stuff we've done before, but Japanese flavoured!". Not to mention the whole 'two characters' system, which is so badly handled. The UI for managing them both is slow and unwieldy. The world is designed for them both to explore it, yet switching between them has a loading screen??? When the rift sections let you switch between them seamlessly??? It makes no sense. I'm a (very) simple person, I buy games because I want to play games, but Ubisoft seem to have forgotten the game part of the development process, and just want your money. But this will be the last game I buy from them unless thing change. Especially when there are more and more alternatives coming out that are just better.

  great game, only the last 3 Achievements suck

  Boring repeat of the past ubi slop.

  I gave the game a chance despite the backlash on the internet... AND I DO NOT REGRET... in my opinion this is one of the best AC games since they started with this open world format. The devs and artists did an amazing job at portraying Sengoku Jidai Japan and the amount of small details is just astounding. I mostly played as Naoe so far and the stealth gameplay and mechanics feel really good. Much better than in Valhalla or even the previous eras. If you love this era of Japan, if you love samurai and shinobi, if you are interested in learning more about Japan, their culture and want to see how it could have looked like back then... Assassins Creed Shadows is a game which wont disappoint if you give it a chance ! Personally I am glad I bought it, taking it slow and enjoying Naoes story a lot. Update: 70 hours in, I am still enjoying the game a lot.. and in addition to Naoes story, I got to experience Yasukes story as well and Its actually quite good. Anyone still doubting whether its worth to buy this game, just the storylines of both protagonists are definitely worth it and the huge, beautiful open world is just amazing. Many people compare this to Ghost of Tsushima or Ghost of Youtei, but this is a different game.. its a large scale RPG game in medieval Japan set in the years leading to Hideyoshis rise to power *not sure whether Tokugawa will play a part as well in the story*... this is a must for every samurai fanboy and fangirl.

  Mostly soul-less I liked the old AC games and I enjoyed Odyssey but Shadows falls in the same camp as Valhalla for me - Just ok. Passable. It's fine. Letter grade: C. I love Japanese culture and history and the very beginning of Shadows is pretty good. It reminds me a lot of Shogun. But after both tutorials when you get to the open world it all falls apart. It slows to a crawl and boils down to a circle of templars with 3 or so prerequisite side missions attached to each. The Stealth is great, the combat is good. Side activities are tedious and there are too many. Locations are too close together and very similar which ruins exploration. Buy Ghost of Tsushima instead. If you already own it play it again instead of this. 6/10

  I Decided to Revise my review after playining for nearly 50 hours...... So 1st heres the BAD BUGS i found and HOW TO FIX THEM! Bug#1- CONTROLLER DISCONNECTING during Gameplay and switching to keyboard and mouse! FIX- Goto the "GAMEPLAY" Tab and change input to HYBRID! [It did this 3 times to me in 50 hours] Bug#2-STUTTERING!!!! Ya i found a FIX! FIX 1-If your using an XBOX SERIES CONTROLLER... UPDATE IT! i hadnt updated mine in probably 6 months dont know why it matters but when i updated it FIXED THE STUTTERING COMPLETELY! FIX 2- IF you have AVOWED installed! and its still stuttering... uninstall AVOWED! again this worked instantly! Long Story but these were the 2 causes i found! NOW! After playing mostly Bug Free for around 40 hours minus the random controller disconnect roughly after 10-15 hours... 3 times in total... ANNOYING! But didnt really ruin the game... SO! I'm Changing my Review to THUMBS UP! Cause after solving the bugs i was able to play ASSASSINS CREED SHADOWS @ 4K MAX EVERYTHING ! + RAY TRACING AND HAIR! with only DLSS 4 Quality+ FG at a SILKY SMOOTH 48-60 FPS! But i prefer 60 LOCKED! So i dropped to 1440p I'm running a Ryzen 7 (3700x),32gb ddr4 ram [3200mhz], 7tb storage samsung ssd's annnnnnd a RTX 3060 12gb! Sooooooo yeah when its running good this is one of the BEST Games i played this Year! 9/10

  I have been a long time player of the AC franchise and this is one of my favorites
