  I don”t know why people hate this game....for me i really enjoy playing and everything is nice and good looking. This game is good honest..

  screw what the ppl say, best assassins creed since unity, sorry not sorry.

  I always liked assassin creeds. gotta finish this shadows then go back to mirage

  After dedicating 200 hours to this game, I can confidently say it's well worth the time. The story is consistently engaging, especially with Yasuke and Naoe's individual arcs. The voice acting could use some polish, but it's far from terrible. Combat is fluid and requires strategic play, setting it apart from earlier titles. The parkour system is a notable upgrade, featuring new mechanics like prone movement and a grappling hook for environmental traversal. The weapons are unique, each offering distinct perks, abilities, and finishers. My main issue is Ubisoft's choice of a fog of war-style map, which complicates exploration in feudal Japan's complex terrains. Despite this, I'd give the game an 8 out of 10, mainly due to minor issues with voice acting and the map design. Overall, it's a well-made game, and I'm excited to see what the future holds for the Assassin's Creed series.

  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.

  I just love with Naoe

  👍

  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.

  I really want to love and enjoy this game but it's just impossible. After pre-ordering and rage deleting i gave it another chance.. Start was somehow solid but playing at hardest difficulty is so painful due to encountering bug or other sh*t every fight, every damn thing you do. You want to use abilities? Nope sorry i won't work right now without reason. You want to dodge? Yes you can ofcourseeee but you see this 2cm high rock? Too bad now you are stuck and you will probably die. You want to fight with some inner calm? Okay you need milion squre miles for no camera glitch, dodge shit, roll stupidity and even then enemies locked in animation move/slide 3 more meters after your roll 'cause you're fucked and they just want to hit you. Heeey, did you tried our quicktime minigame? Yeeaaah? Fuck you! Shift+LMB will not work either! And things that worked at launch somehow magicaly stopped working.. congrats I know Shadows trying so hard to be skill based game but you know what? F*ck you Ubisoft. I have no problem paying for good game but did you even tried play your own game and see what are you making? What about testing and polishing .. i know CRAZY... For me THE best AC games are still Odyssey and Black Flag. Probably will be for ever 'cause my hopes for Ubi is lost and Shadows is last AC game i play and probably Ubisoft game too... Edit: Sooo i should start with something positive. Game looks really beautiful. Hideout can take a lot of time and makes you wanna buy all cosmetic sh*t, but that's probably all. Most of quests are painfully boring, quest log is bad and i mean really baaaaaaad. Sorting quests for specific location is non-existent. I am so sad i don't record by default 'cause bugs and eroors i encountered.. just wauuu. "Hit box" is retarded and enemies that missing you by meter still hit you. They can sometimes see ya at 50m through wall during blizzard, AI acting strange.. no problem chase you 500m shoot one arrow and than just turn around and don't give a shit. If you want to play this game play it on normal difficulty. You don't need take so serious approach in fights and just rip though them.

  Assassins creed shadows is 7/10(Good), it does a lot of things right and fumble on some aspects. Story: The story is pretty great for the most part. I think Naoe and Yasuke are interesting characters to follow the story in most cases, however I would definitely say naoe is canonically the main character as I find her more fitted in terms of how the story unfolds. Yasuke isnt that bad, I think he fits well in about 2-3 main areas of the game depending on the task like Omi for example. The end of the main game was bad in my opinion and a bit anti-climatic because of how the main bad guy gets defeated, I was hoping for more. The DLC definitely completes the overall plot and is handle better. This assassins creed feels more grounded compare to all the others because spoiler alert no ancient artifact or people are involved. The assassins arent really present either, although I get why people may dislike that the story does explain this and technically they are present in the dlc kind of. Gameplay: Its just any assassins creed game to me in my opinion of course inspiration from old and newer titles. I think the combat could be refined more, sometimes i would attack accidentally instead of assassinating an enemy or attack an enemy I'm not even targeting. When the combat works it feels ok, one thing I love is the nuance of how you can trigger certain feats you unlock in mastery. The parkour is pretty cool I think better than the recent titles not much i really have to say there. The hid in the shadows mechanic is usable for both characters, but obviously naoe makes better use of it. The side quest and missions were hit or miss, I dont like the kill specific enemy type personally. World/Atmosphere: This game really bring japan to life the culture, people, and events makes me feel like I'm experiencing the past first hand of course with the fictional exaggeration of being a ninja and what assassins creed is about. As beautiful as Japan is no landmarks or cities, really pop out partially because I'm not familiar with the history, however the landscapes were amazing and the dynamic weather and seasons. The Awaiji area is my favorite in terms of how the story affects the environment and I wish the main area did more of that. Characters: I already typed a bit about Naoe and Yasuke if I'm to be honest they arent my favorite characters in the series. There backstories are interesting, but I dont feel attached to them, eh I may lean towards naoe more. To address a controversy of the game it does feel like Yasuke is a side character, I think it would help if Ubisoft structure some missions better. For example during most quests and missions you get the option to play yasuke or naoe, I think this plays against them because it feels like the character you are not playing as is just there to be there or out of no where. These characters should be portrayed as working as a team as you move from region to region. I think they should follow the structure of assassins creed syndicate quests and missions. The people you recruit play a small role to the main story except maybe one which is fine. I wish there couldve been something special involving them helping you in the end of the main story. The kid jinjiro is meh, but hes more involved than the people you recruit thats diabolical. Conclusion: I think this game is alright despite my criticisms. I would consider this more of an assasins creed game than valhalla. Shadows does the culture/atmosphere well, a few hiccups in the story department but ended pretty strong(including the DLC), and combat could be refined. Its a game I think people should try despite what the internet and certain groups who disapproves of it may say.

  This game is sh!t. Ubisoft continues to spit in the face of the minuscule amount of invested ac fans they still have. They are the masters of missed opportunities and drop the ball on absolutely everything. An ac game set in japan should have been a home run, and it probably would have been if it were made 10-15 years earlier. Back before the company became a slop generator. Why the fvxk are they drip-feeding us ASSASSINS CREED in a video game called ASSASSINS CREED?? The main focus of these games should be on 1. MAIN PROTAGONISTS (ASSASSINS) vs MAIN ANTAGONISTS (TEMPLARS) 2. A Modern Day Story 3. Something Isu related I don’t understand why it’s such a hard ask. Where an ac game is 0.01% AC and 99.9% Bloat, its like the entire identity that WAS assassins creed is just fan service or easter eggs, its ridiculous. These games have been anything but assassins creed since they dropped the disrespectful, spit in the face, lore breaking bullsh!t that was odyssey. Writing has been horrible, uninteresting, boring, corny, robotic, and awkward. I'm so fvxking tired of this franchise. I have been the most dedicated fan since the early games. I’m only here for what it once was, not for what it is. I think it’s time to let go. I'm so tired. There's no hope for this franchise.

  Waste of money, combat feels like its made for mobile gaming & "medium difficulty" is realistically harder than "lethal" in ghost of tsushima, safe your money
