  Assassin Creed Shadows is a solid 7/10 game for me. The game is still in the RPG fashion games compared to the older assassin creed titles. I enjoyed the gameplay with the newer stealth mechanics, while the story was only ok. Act 1 and Act 3 is where the best parts are which is good except for the majority of the game being Act 2 which was boring and long. Overall I enjoyed gameplay especially the stealth where it is vastly improved over Valhalla's system. The new prone and shadows mechanic makes stealth more engaging and fun, although it's a shame that they didn't add social stealth into the game. Combat is around the same as the other rpgs with minimal changes to it. Parkour is the part of the gameplay where I'm most let down on as there's still no depth to it. You are still using the same system from the other rpg's. Storywise AC Shadows does start with a interesting ACT 1 which hooked me until ACT 2. The devs opted to use a open target board where you choose which target to go after, this in turn makes the characters unable to grow as each target can be taken out at anytime in the story. ACT 3 and the Epilogue does pick up the pace once more and gets interesting but I feel like the ending is underwhelming and only serves to set up the dlc. Voice acting is also one of the thing I think the game fails to deliver as the English VA is worse this time around, I opted for the Immersive Mode which has Japanese and Portuguese VA which was way better.

  I enjoyed the game until I had the pleasure of fighting the Oni. A random red mist stun and and a random teleport kick -> insta dead. No defense or options to avoid it. I spent 30min on that map and decided it wasnt worth it anymore. Its a complete stone wall for the rest of the game and it was boring, random and made me stop playing.

  [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]

  Game will not launch on Steam. If I paid for a product, I expect it to work or get my money back; it's not complicated.

  yummy ubislop

  I’m really glad the open-world model from Origins is back, it’s what I’ve missed most in recent titles! The gameplay feels expansive and familiar in all the right ways. However, I do wish Ubisoft brought back the option to leave the Animus, that part of the experience feels missing now. The game could also use a fresh protagonist, it’s time to continue the story after Layla Hasan. That modern-day layer was part of what made Assassin’s Creed unique, so removing it makes the experience feel a bit incomplete. Overall, though, I had a great time playing it.

  Mind-numbingly boring.

  It is the Assassins creed. I did not, and do not care for the required fighting. Colectethon is meh. Pretty, but repetitive after a while. Still love stabbing ... so yes, is good enough.

  Rough start but solid game once you get into it

  The game is awesome, but it’s a shame Ubisoft didn’t enable Steam Cloud Saves. Syncing between PC and ROG Ally is a headache, because Ubisoft Connect just isn’t as reliable as Steam.

  Noice

  Bought the game on discount (paid less than US$38). Graphics are great (at least when they are loaded correctly). The game is buggy (HUD disappears from time to time, error loading textures ...) and optimisation is bad. Still, given the price, I can live with it. Buy on discount only!!
