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

  Great game, great fun. Give it a go if you're an AC fan.

  My first AC game since 2007. IDC how someone got bored here, the game is just huge, 100+ hours and i only got 4 main bosses done. Far from ending but i hope there more DLC's coming. p.s prices for cosmetics is absurd

  Naoe's gameplay is where this game shines for me, Yasuke can be fun if you just want to feel like a tank and mow down enemies, but I chose Naoe over Yasuke whenever the game had you choose one for some story elements. Feels a step closer to the stealth/assassin focused gameplay of older Assassin's Creed games more so than Valhalla, Odyssey, Mirage, and even Origins in my opinion.

  best ac game

  i cannot give a recommendation to this game for one reason and one reason only, it just doesnt fucking work properly on my machine. my PC specs is a ryzen 7 5700x, 16gb of 3200mhz ddr4 and a RTX 3070TI with the game installed on an SSD, and i cannot enjoy the game at all because the world DOESNT LOAD FAST ENOUGH?? IM TIRED OF SEEING THESE LOW RES TEXTURE AND LOD MODELS EVERYWHERE, IM LITERALLY PLAYING ON ULTRA FUCKING LOW??? whats annoying is that when this game works, its beautiful, i LOVE the game, but these issues im encountering is annoying. its even more annoying that every other recent AC game works just fine, this is the only one that doesnt. EDIT: got the game working fine, updated to windows 11 and got a brand new SATA SSD which thankfully fixes all the issues, the game is pretty good, my thumbs up is not a "recommend" however, its more like a maybe, maybe with time this game will continue to get better, especially performance wise.

  Very Rad Edition! One of the tops

  Not sure why this game got such bad reviews. The story line is pretty good and the mechanics of the game is a ton of fun!

  Not Bad Not Good

  Great game, maybe wait until it goes on sale again. Not necessary though as there is a lot of content. 9.5/10 imo.

  I was skeptical about the quality of another AC game and waited for it to be on sale first. I'm actually impressed and enjoying this game more than I thought I would. I disliked Mirage, it felt so boring that I could only get to about 25% of the progression before uninstalling it. There was no level of reeling me into the story to get me hooked. Anyhow, back to Shadows, so it's another AC game with the plot mostly about revenge, helping others and recruiting a team and assassinating persons of interest. The map is massive and I'm still chipping away at discovering every little mark on the map. Maybe I'm just a sucker for feeling immersed in old Japan but I gotta say, I'm loving the atmosphere and the graphics are incredible! I admire the feeling of seasonal change in the game to keep things feeling refreshed and immersive. About every couple hours, the season changes and the surrounding vegetation and tree coloring changes. You get bright summers, to monsoon raining, autumn leaves changing and snow. There's not too much wildlife when you venture off the main roads and you cannot kill any animals which is a little lame. It seemed like all other AC games, you could kill animals, get the skins to increase your hardware capacity but meh. I do like the feel of Naoe, she's nimble, agile and you feel like a ninja with her. I don't like playing as Yasuke, he's a towering Juggernaut so he's mostly just a heavy hitting tank that can use large melee, rifles and bows. He doesn't jump well and not ninja like so whatever play style you want, that's your options. Playing on a (ROG Strix Scar 18 laptop). It runs crisp and smoothly without any hiccups with all settings maxed out. There's been a few times upon launch that there's a bug between the keyboard input isn't going through to the game, a Steam to Ubisoft bug. No big deal. I definitely rate this game 8/10. It's much better than Mirage and Valhalla combined.

  The combat is extremely unbalanced. If you're fighting a higher level character your attacks are sort of like if a 5 year old was hitting the rock. it feel completely futile if you are using the girl main character. You could use the Black Samurai main character but then your big and sluggish. Also its not why most people bought the game. I definitely did not want to be a samurai, I wanted to be the Shinobi. Which is why it was so disapointing that they made her so weak. I'm surprised because prior AC games were more balanced. Not sure what happened with this game but save your money.
