This Game is SO Buggy

Mission states to kill from Hiding spots yet the guards don't walk past them. Throw a cherry bomb... they don't go near the hiding spot. Try to throw and get in the hide, it won't go into the hide. The controls are terrible compared to Black Flag. Extremely frustrating.

You do have to manipulate the AIs sometimes. For one of these missions, I remember having to trick a guard into checking a hay bale, then timing it right so that I jumped in after he was done and assassinated before he wandered off.

Was kinda cool. Dunno if there was an easier way to do it or if this will help in your case, but that's the kind of oddity I found myself doing more frequently than I would have hoped.

In Black Flag - you can Whistle to get their attention. In Unity, they give you fire crackers, but to use them you have to throw them like a smoke bomb, then try to get back into hiding before they come. For some dumb reason, I couldn't get back into the cabinet (it wouldn't let me in) and I get spotted. So like with most things, there are other ways to approach... just hate the extra hassle at times.

It just takes time and patience and getting used too, cherry lures are basically LOS lures

Oh I understand... but mashing a key 50 million times is not good on a keyboard, DEV's shouldn't make games like that... I can't play their games if my keyboard or controller is broken due to button mashing!

The mashing was when I was on the Roof tossing it up with the other Assassin... with Keyboard it wants you to mash "E" like a thousand times. I had to let go of the Mouse and just really mash it fast and hard to get it to progress; and I have an advanced system and keyboard so was pretty upset about having to do that to my equipment. But I tried the lower rez solution and that didn't work. I basically was throwing 2 complaints into 1 post.

Either troll or seek doctor.
I played through all of the AC games (and also Dark Souls Elden Ring etc) without ever breaking a keyboard...
and that is the case for 99% of the players, I would guess.
