  The story is gripping, and exploring feudal Japan feels so real and alive. Switching between the two characters keeps things fresh and exciting, with each offering a unique playstyle. The combat feels smooth and powerful, and the stealth moments are super satisfying. Overall, I recommend this game to all player.

  i honestly did not enjoy ac shadows at all the story start already felt weird like they just throw some hiphop music and i felt like i was in some modern japan universe even though its suppose to be old period. the gameplay is really bland same combo over and over and the dialogues feel so lifeless i couldn't even get into the characters. for this much price it is not worth it maybe if it goes down to like 20 bucks then i can say ok but other than that its just waste of money. i would even prefer playing ac 1 again because at least that has better atmosphere and feeling except the leap of faith. the only thing i can say is fine is the scenery it looks decent. the funny part for me was when the vram budget screen said 7 gb but in game i checked my performance metrics and it was almost 14 gb maxed out and i was just thinking what is this xd

  100% Worth the $40 on sale. Overall, a 7.6 for me. The man-baby crying hate mob is going to clown-emoji the hell out of me for this take, but this game is one of the prime examples of why you cant always listen to modern outrage. Its a trend to just bandwagon on hate. Is it perfect? No. Is it repetitive at times? Yes. Its an assassin's creed game. No one complained about the old games where ALL fights could be won by holding the counter button. And even THEN, i enjoyed it. This games fight loop is about patterns and reactions. Missing them or becoming too cocky will result in a humbling ass kicking. I enjoy it a lot WHEN IT WORKS. A few times, the camera would become incooperative. The counter attacks rely on a glowing spark that only appears when the enemy is in your vision. If you get stuck against a wall, the camera may make that impossible. Additionally, not all functions always work when they should. I've found myself trying to escape after an assassination, end ended up dying because my character chose to press herself against the wall instead of climb it. A bit of jank to this game. Ive always wanted a Japanese assassin's creed and so far, im really enjoying it. My main complaint is the traveling. But other than that, Its the most fun I've had since origins. I recommend playing the JP dub. Hilarious the number of people bxtching about authenticity and playing the English dub in the first place. It's no Ghost Of Tsushima, the better samurai game... but if I wanted to play Ghost of Tsushima, I'd just go play Ghost of Tsushima.

  100 Hours to beat the main story while doing exploring half the time. I give this games story line a 7.5/10. Graphics 9/10, open world/ bonus content 7/10. And NPCs/Immersion 6/10

  good

  Don't listen to the people hating just because of ubisoft. Play the game and make your own opinion please. Pros: Graphics are insane, the map is well done and doesn't fell empty at all, sound design is top level, mechanics are well done and fresh (like the sidekick one), side activities are cool and castle are pretty good although some of them feels the same as others, seasons are a nice addition with winter being beautiful and impacted gameplay (you can hide easily, your step are slowed, lake are frozen (so no hiding in them), etc..) and Naoe (assassin) and Yasuke (samurai) feel completely different and impose new playstyles. Mids: Combat is good but is a bit repetitive (mainly because there's not many enemy types), skills are nice and useful for the most part but once you find 2 or 3 that you like you will stick with those, same for weapons. If you play to find everything exploration feels a bit repetitive when it comes to temples and side activities, dialogues are a bit meh and choices dont really matter except when it comes to sidekicks. Performances were bad on launch (pc) but within a month they fixed it (you still need a pretty good computer to run the game at ultra 1080p). Cons: Story is way to complicated for nothing; they introduce so many side characters and try interlinking them but at the end only like 4 characters are really important. It's the same problem as the other one before: '' Oh no they killed someone I care about'' or '' Oh no they want to take over the territory''. It's basic and the story is only driven by vengeance for both Naoe and Yasuke. On a another note; Yasuke's side of the story is REALLY interesting compare to Naoe, which is a shame. It doesn't feel like they gave the same amount of love to the 2 characters (maybe because they knew Naoe was gonna be more popular so they wanted to emphasise more on Yasuke idk). Personal note: this game felt amazing to play and captured the ambience of japan incredibly. I probably spent at least 5 hours total in photo mode. This is the type of game that wins me over, disabling the HUD and walking slowly with your horse through fields or forest while your sound is at 100%; nothing gave me this feeling since Got or Rdr2 beside this game. Note: 8/10. My favourite modern day ac game and top 2 overall behind ac3. Still it doesn't feel like a amazing assassin's creed game but it is a really good rpg game.

  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.

  Don't fu**ing buy even on sale(or must be really cheap if I gonna recommend to try this), it's a waste of money af and I speak from gameplay and flow of story not from woke sh*t or color samurai. I'm not gonna use more of my time to write sh** in this review cuz it not worth my time and if you really want to know what I think just DM me or just go look for online review. In short, go buy AC brotherhood or black flag or syndicate

  Mind-numbingly boring.

  it is a typical ac game. but with in game bugs. sometimes the game freezes and the graphics depreciates, icons sometimes disappear, i often click the map and menu to reboot the current gameplay to make the icons reappear and graphic pixel back to my desired settings. please do fix this.
