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.

47,000 is terrible for a AAA game like assassins creed lol. veilguard had more and it still failed.

people need to realise these arent indie games where 47,000 is acceptable because they are on a low budget.

we are talking 100s of millions of dollars .

1 million sales is only like 70 million dollars after steam takes their cut.

that is underwater.

a bunch of the auto intake crowd bought the game as per usual day one and those numbers fall off fast.

I prefer to wait for Wuchang Fallen Feather to be released this year.

Ronin is much better than any ubisoft game. Which is ironic cuz Ronin has the same stupid open world slop than any ubisoft game. But this game has actual gameplay while AC is just spam button.

I'm not really a fan of the Assassin's Creed franchise either, but the game is set in feudal Japan, so I'm in! :csd2smile:

no it's not set in feudal japan. your brain will see so much bullsh*t thrown together slop in the game that's just "asian", not necessarily japanese. from the landscapes to the architecture, to the artistic paintings writings etc. it's like looking at AI generated pictures.

it's the biggest insult to any asian country not just japan. it basically says "yeah it all looks the same over there."

But these are only the figures from Steam. Most people will play it on console or directly via Ubisoft. All in all, there are well over a million players after a few hours.

Shadows has a peak (Steam only) of 41,412 concurrent players

AC Origins didn't have many more players on Steam
These numbers perhaps illustrate this better in comparison..:

- Assassin's Creed Odyssey
all-time peak: 62,069
- Assassin's Creed Origins
all-time peak: 41,551
- Assassin's Creed Valhalla
all-time peak: 15,679

The game apparently got around 1 million sales, including the freebies they were giving out with hardware sales.

1 million sales is not a good thing. If this was the PS2 era, it would be good. If they were an indie game, it would be good. If the game were AA, then it might still be acceptable.

Thing is, it is a AAA game, and Ubisoft has lost 80% of their value in the last 5 years. 1 million sales means they probably haven't even broke even, and they are in desperate need of a hit game.

Keep in mind, MH Wilds cleared something like 8 million copies almost immediately.

AC Shadows definately looks better than RotR and even GoT, i bought all three games and every one is unique in his own way! I like all of them!

ubisoft said themselves they sold 1 million copies so i dont see where hes getting that they sold more than that when you add console and their own platform because that 1 million sales includes all of them.

Its always the same BS defense with these people. but but console too.

Ubisoft can come out and say anything they want, the problem is what they say is complete bias with no way to verify what they say is true.

Until we get sales figures from independent sources, I'm not taking Ubisoft's word at all.

So MEH Story
ONE BUTTON Combat
CHECK LIST Open World Map

Yeah, that definitely makes AC Shadows sound better than the other two.

CohCarnage streamed AC Shadows and then dropped it after 6 hours because he got bored.

Biggest indictment anyone could make against that game imo.
