  pretty cool game much better than assassins creed valhalla and the graghics are amazing would recomend

  pin8pp – Review (4/10) The game looks amazing visually, with impressive graphics and beautiful detail. Unfortunately, that’s where the praise ends. The game feels badly optimized and needs serious tuning from the developers. The open world doesn’t feel truly open, and the story is a complete mess — this is not how you write a coherent game narrative. Gameplay mechanics feel heavy and sluggish. Naoe is by far the most fun and fluid character to play, while Yasuke feels completely out of place in the setting. Overall, pin8pp is a beautiful disappointment — great visuals, but poor execution. Rating: 4/10

  Don't put the character you advertised as the "stealth character" into forced *combat* sequences you morons

  It's probably worth getting if you are an AC fan and buy on sale; I did. The best thing about the game is it's visual immersion and great vistas; environmental sound design is good too. Also, the core gameplay formula remains pretty tight, and there is a legitimate way to play a vast majority of the game stealthily. The biggest issue comes down to editing. While it's cool how big the map is, it's honestly probably a bit too big and there are too many boring repetitive tasks (forts are especially annoying because of how long they take; you have to search large complexes for 2-5 special samurai to kill just so you can open a chest that usually won't drop anything worthwhile). They just prioritized having more content rather than good content (wide ocean, shallow waters type of shit) You can feel this vain continue to other things like cut scenes which come off as being cranked out of a factory: very little variation and most of the writing feels bloated. I skip most of them, and I never feel like I've missed something important Similarly, although Yasuke is a cool character on the face of it, they should have made him a supporting character because he's simply unnecessary and he doesn't fit in with the assassin part of assassin's creed. I see the parts where you have to play as him as being content bloat you have to sit through just so you can go back to actually playing AC. Overall though, most of my complaints (and there are more) fall away into the background as you play moment-to-moment. Wait for sale but worth getting if you like the AC formula.

  Incredibly badly optimized, crashes all the time and the characters are boring. I never feel like caring what happens to anyone. Luckily I don't have to climb to any towers here, just to get fast travel points on my map, since the hideout system makes them largely irrelevant and are much better located for fast travel purposes anyway. Other than that, it's hard to find anything positive. It's pretty I guess and weather effects are quite good. It could be "Better-than-Valhalla"-level of game, but before they fix the crashes and slowly degrading framerates during the gameplay, I don't see any reason to waste time on AC Shadows. EDIT (19.10.2025): Crashes got a lot fewer once I lowered the ray tracing settings. Framerates are still bad and will get lower during my gameplay (doesn't matter which settings I am using). But at least it works now. I have nVidia RTX5090, AMD 9950X3D and 192GB of system ram, all installed on m.2 SSD drives. So the system specs shouldn't be a limiting factor for game to work well.

  In my opinion this game is a straight downgrade from Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Assassin's Creed Odyssey (I slept on Mirage so I have no frame on reference to that game, since it didn't seem all that interesting to me). Splitting all equipment and abilities between Naoe and Yasuke was a mistake in my eyes, I'd much rather have one character that can use it all, like Eivor or Kassandra in previous entries. When getting loot rewards, it feels absolutely awful when you realize that the item you got is exclusive to the character you don't plan on playing unless the game locks and forces you into playing it to progress the game (Which it has done, much to my annoyance). I despise the Knowledge system, it is an entirely arbitrary system used to lock you from getting perks in the skill trees by forcing you to do annoying and repetitive mini "games" (If you can even call them that, since some just amount to: Go here, press a button, wait 10 seconds for an animation to finish, repeat two more times.) to be able to get enough Knowledge poins to unlock incrementing Knowledge tiers (Knowledge is a separate measure to experience, which just makes it even dumber in my eyes that this system exists). Dialogue choices feel pretty meaningless and without consequence. You say X, the NPC replies with Y, and if moves onto Z, and even if you had picked A instead of X, the NPC would just say B and move onto Z anyways. The armor and weapons you get are all pretty lackluster visually, because obviously all the interesting designs are locked behind the cash shop in this singleplayer game, you just get four or five armor models and the way they make the illusion of having more is by spamming random retextures (Many of which in my opinion are gaudy or just plain ugly). As for the weapons you get a few blades or hilts, etc. and they randomly put two together when dealing out rewards, along with some retextures of the same things. Overall, I regret my purchase of this game, and I would refund it if I could. I really tried to enjoy it, but as it is now I definitively recommend skipping this game. Which is a shame because I am a fan of the recent AC games, especially Valhalla, with it being tied for my favouite AC game alongside Revelations. The game just feels like a slog compared to past entries.

  Constant issues with Ubisoft Connect prevent the game from starting up most of the time. I have successfully gotten it to start twice, but the vast majority of time it simply fails to launch due to communication issues between Ubisoft Connect and Steam. Why is it trying to communicate with Ubisoft Connect in the first place? I bought the game on Steam for a reason; I don't want to have to deal with Ubisoft's bloated, failed effort at creating a storefront. Yet they crammed it in like they always do and right now it's literally breaking the game for me due to how low-quality it is. EDIT: I am still having this problem, but constant reboots allow the game to start up occasionally. As frustrating as this issue is I can't hold it against the rest of the game. Since I'm able to reach the actual game sometimes, I suppose I should actually review it. It's great, if a bit by-the-numbers; it's not the game's fault that Ghost of Tsushima came out relatively recently and feels almost identical, but it's a reality that the setting has been done to death. Still, this is an Ubisoft open-world collectathon. You know what you're getting from it. Its production values are high and if you want an open-world collectathon set in Japan, this is about as good as Ghost of Tsushima, so flip a coin between the two or play both if you're really desperate for more. Just... be warned that like all Ubisoft games it's locked behind Ubisoft Connect, which is an awful, useless, bloated terrible piece of software that makes my blood boil with loathing towards Ubisoft as a company every time I'm forced to interact with its wretchedness. Usually I wouldn't focus so much of my review on it but given that its terribleness is actively making it difficult for me to start the game there's not much else to say.
