Reviews say Assassin's Creed Shadows is great

[AILAD]

Looks way better than this. Those who refunded Ronin should check out Shadows. Or if you're thinking about buying this Sahdows might be the better option.

I don't get why some people seem to have this "either or" mentality. Why not play both? I'll take my time to finish this. And then I'll play AC: Shadows. Just play the games you like and stop pestering other people with what you don't like. Steam forums would be a lot less toxic this way.

I mean your right, but Ubisoft does not have much good will left with how they handle criticism and how they try to milk players of as much money they can with their MTX stores shoved into single player games among many other things.

I was interested in Shadows until I watch some reviews about how easy combat is and how brain dead AI is. After playing this game where the systems and mechanics are deep and challenging it will be hard for me to get into a HUGE open world game where the core combat is overall worse.

Well said. .what's best now is to stop buying Ubisoft and let them die fast.

why do people like you exist?? why are you here?
i bet your much more POLITICALLY charged in this than anything about the actual games

[ElviraDemonQueen]

nah i dont want to play some weird voice acted characters and characters that got 0 Relation to the history at all.

plus there not alot of combat in shadows and its boring to me

In comparison, you have the Shogun series (also loosely based on actual events) which was a success, made for western audience.
Ubisoft decided to hire DEI experts. It's a just a management/political problem. Their stocks is -6% today. Investors will decide. Ubisoft was a great studio, just replace the management team.

I prefer games with actual gameplay, not just flashy stealth animations.

i have 12hrs into AC Shadows and he AI is far from Brain Dead. they dodge they parry they block they team up on you, they can box you in. the AI enemies are competent. yes the combat is a little easy. in the sense attacks that can be parried or have to be dodged are color cods so its easy to see but if you just go in there attack spamming you will die a lot.

Watched a video of new AC combat.

It's Arkham Asylum combat. Again. With giant "YOU SHOULD PRESS PARRY BUTTON NOW!" prompts hovering over the enemies.

Only AC game I've played was the pirate one. Which had Arkham Asylum combat. Again.

Arkham Asylum combat is fine. It suited the game perfectly. It's for power fantasy gameplay. But honestly, it's almost embarrassing to see it touted as "good combat" today.

I'll pass, thank you. Never saw the appeal of the AC series - if you want stealthy assassination action, Hitman just does it better.

Shadows is failing abysmally. That game should have been huge but only 45k concurrent players on Steam, people playing for free or with a sub on Ubi. They need to sell over 4 million copies over all platforms, going on a £300 million budget, just to make even. The budget could be a lot more, depending on how many lies Ubi have spun.

[Sledgehamster]

I have both. Shadows is graphically amazing but Ronin is the better game.

[n1lknarf]

I'd rather have gameplay in a game rather than graphics.
You can't play graphics.

If Ass Creed was so good, why are they already giving it away for free?

For Shadows? Obviously, a marketing scheme. Purchase Intel, get Shadows and Twitch drops for a chance to win. That's fairly standard for big AAA releases.

I mean you can get wilds for free with the purchase of a Cpu as well or you could. Lots of games do this. Buy new hardware get game or your choice from three games.

[Guldo]

nothing but low effort bait. last time i checked this game wasnt competing with assassins creed shadows especialy since its been out for a year already on ps5.

still dont know why people give clown awards to these people.
