You read that right. AC Shadows is a strong game of the year contender.

It works extremely well. Despite a size that very much seems like it’s going to be on par with Valhalla, I cannot stop playing, and this is a game that so far has done nearly everything right. I think you could make the case it’s a top 3 entry in the series, and honestly, it could make it to the peak by the end.

I recall you saying something about the combat being similar to the other games. Does it get better, or are you recommending even with that?

Yes, it does get better. I'm loving it so far.

Top 3? Bro, this is literally peak. Humanity could never produce a masterpiece that could best this masterpiece.
I feel sorry for Ubisoft due to the fact that they can only charge $60 for this. It should be $200!!
I bet they are losing money due to this, smh.

To those of you who disagree with me, well, you're not only wrong, but also lacking in critical thinking skills.
Maybe you should stop breathing through your mouth manually and started breathing through your nose like a normal human being.

Even if you enjoy it, I still hope it fails so Ubisoft is done.
That way we can finally stop hearing about "gaming is unsustainable because we hired a bunch of unqualified people and have 2 hours of credits, and need to sell way more than actually possible to stay afloat so we put in bloat ware and micro transactions while preaching to players that they have to accept it to play our games" over and over again.

where Yasuke was boinking Nobunaga's sister
Still amazed writers wrote this and thought it was okay. But eh oh well, Ubisoft is already suffering for their nonsense. Good riddance.
Lol, I love this guy
It is historically accurate. I always learned more from Assassin games than from actual history books, which are written by boring old men.
Peak comedy, this ^

While there are a lot of good features and details in the game, I do not think it will even receive a game of the year nomination.

As usual, Ubisoft's general manner of storytelling, or their formula, feels lifeless in too many ways. The game offers too much, connects too little, and results in a hollow world.

I will give them credit, though: it is one of the better Assassin's Creed games in a long while.

Not gonna lie, it's rhe most polished Ubisoft game in the last decade. Probably because they are nearing bankruptcy, but their company their choice.

Though having battle pass in a single-player game is sacrilegious to me. Like, why?

No, iirc it was between Saru and Nobunaga's daughter.

Edit: niece not daughter.

GotY has always been a major BJ event for corporations.

Kind of hoping (o)UblietteSoft would last until the prize ceremony, win GotY and send all the wrong signals to Tencent.

Also, anime babes are nice, but when the gacha clones hit, all I could think of is "whelp, time to R18 Pixiv again."
