  Not the best story and it has its flaws but v1.1.1 fine tuned it for the better now. Ge this on discount only.

  overall, this is the type of game I enjoy most; a large, beautiful open world with contracts to tick off the box as you gradually unlock sick outfits and beautiful weapons that incrementally increase your damage numbers. that being said, this game struggles in a number of ways. here are my overall thoughts after getting about halfway through the story. POSITIVES: the world and environment are ridiculously beautiful. i physically cannot stop taking photos of the landscape in the photo mode. the swaying of the trees, grass, the leaves, the beautiful shadows, early-morning fog, the blue of the ocean, it all hits so hard. the only other game i've ever felt so absorbed in the simple act of traversing the world by horse is red dead redemption 2. riding in the rain along the coast as the lightning flashes across the screen is such a peak experience. in addition, the gear and customization is soo good. god the outfits in this game look amazing, not to mention the beautiful weapons. as a character-customization-head, i am immensely satisfied. the stealth is also clearly a massive upgrade over all previous titles, and i enjoy the armor system, though I wish there was a greater variety of weapons or stances (which i hear is partly addressed with the Bo staff). NEGATIVES: i have trouble getting invested in the story because of its lack of linearity, lack of engaging villains, and uninteresting protagonists. i feel that the cutscenes and story dialogue particularly suffer in this game compared to Origins and Odyssey, with many cutscenes lacking weight because of weak voice acting, corny lines, and the awkward facial animation system (which never really bothered me in Origins and Odyssey, since the voice acting and writing were much more compelling and i could mostly ignore it). i'm also very disappointed in the lack of japanese mythology. i felt that origins and odyssey both do a great job shining a light on the religious beliefs and culture of each country, and i was able to learn a lot more about their mythologies, which i don't feel like i'm really getting from japan right now. being able to pray at shrines and learn about high-class customs is nice, but i am missing the mythological aspect. japanese mythological isu would have been so good... overall, i'm really enjoying the gameplay loop of this game, and the world is so beautiful i could probably play it as much as i've played odyssey. even if the story is so weak i can barely stand to watch cutscenes.

  if you want to play a samurai game go play Ghost of Tsushima, this 2 character spilt gameplay style sucks..

  The assassins creed series has always been one of my fav series of all time. Ive played every single main game. However, for shadows, there are multiple issues. besides the fact that one of the main characters is a black guy when they could have easily used the opportunity to have a sexy japanese guy... the female voice actor for Naoe is so bad and so cringe and she sounds so white compared to the other more authentic japanese voices it hurts my head. more importantly, the makers of this game focused WAAAYYY too much on unnecessary high graphics and story lines as opposed to actual gameplay and controls. it actually feels like we have regressed in the world of AC. like the game is almost unplayable how hard it is to maneuver around the world or to climb things. the terrain and landscape are so unnecessary it feels like we are back in 2009 skyrim (which is a much better game btw). overall, the game isnt as bad as i originally thought it would have been but it definitely could have been a lot better. deeply disappointed since ive always wanted an AC game to take place in japan. just disappointed overall. also eagle eye is garbage now, why is it the same button as scope? are yall ok in montreal? clearly not. origins was one of the best newer AC games or even black flag.. we can do better than this its 2025 lets be so fr rn pls.

  Great comeback Great game

  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.

  overall good game. gameplay has enough depth to be interesting. the world looks amazing. sound track is good. the bad: leveling system is nothing special. the story is boring. feels too long. side quest are more boring. i'd recommend if you're into ubisoft open word games

  After 20 hours it gets repetitive and boring. I usually finish games, but not this one.

  shit ubisoft

  uplayable

  I haven't had this much fun since the Ezio Trilogy. I really love the Japanese culture as well the Samurai, and anything that came up from watching animes. I really love this game.
