not even as good as ac odyssey

[Jackal]

as someone who just beat this through ubisoft plus, this is basically B team who made odyssey retreading a lot of that game, only with worse story, worst characters, and really bad utilization of the 2 heroes system.
all the great things of like valhalla and origins is missing here, and the environment and locales are really copy pasted stuff over and over. i'd put this below origins valhalla and odyssey in the ranking, atleast in odyssey you had choices, way better animations and characters and voice acting with outcomes that mattered, the choices in this game are like irrelevant

Worse then a goty nominee isn't the insult I suspect you think it is.

shadow is the worst AC in the modern ac games, i give it a 6/10 , combat are fun a little but when you know how to cheese them , it became stupid

Talks about Odyssey, complains about copy paste.

Irony.

because while odyssey was a lot of reused and copy pasted areas the story and writing and voice acting were vastly superior in every way. like 3+ tiers above shadows

Yeah, the story was amazing... Bringing some guy olive oil during a party was great writing.

Not even as good as odyssey? Maybe because this one is better? Also the Japanese voice actors are much better than the english ones

1: Blackflag, 2: Valhalla: 3: Shadows.

Shadows should have more tactical combat imho. Something like timed-abilities, you are in fight, you get an opportunity for ability, you can choose whether you go for it or no. Thats Samurai/NInja stuff.

I felt like I was in Rambo 5 when I played this. Go straight through the gate and kill them all. if you go on roof, someone spots you immedaitely, and its on, and kill them all.

Odyssey is superior to the other 2. Your premise is already bad. Odyssey Character helped boost Valhalla sales. Bad argument. Poor gaming taste.

Just go play KCD2 with the other "I'm being oppressed as a White Man since I'm not the lead." trolls. They made a place for you to be there. Did you even support Space Marines 2? POE2?(No PoCs or Black Exiles but my hours are from 2 weeks play time lol. It's like, I don't need the game to be about me. It just has to be *gasps* fun! Can't wait for the patch!)

There are places for you to go lol

Assassin's Creed coming to Japan and making a Black Samurai is the greatest own a Game Company could give you racist and xenophobic peons(and they got the W vs "President" Musk on his platform lol). They really fixed your asses. You wanted that "Shogun" fantasy soooo bad lol. At least you will always have Nioh lol.

It's a Very Positive game, indeed.

I agree with this. But this is true for a lot of Games. People like OP won't acknowledge that Kassy is the Goat of the Modern Trilogy because She's a Woman...

In my opinion its a good game, more assassination contracts, less hunting, fishing, ship combat. I just dont like how they force you to play Yasuke especially in the main quests and how prominent Yasuke is in every main quest cut scene even if you focus on playing Naoe.

I totaly believe that and I bet the german voice acting for Yasuke sucks even more
The only problem is I dont speak japanese.

Yasuke is required fike to be played for like...10% of the quests. Almost all the remainder of the SHinbakufu give you the option of playing the battle parts as Yaasuke or Naoe. SO please stop overblowing the "They forced me to play Yasuke!" part. Hell, the only sidequests that *require* him are his own Character Journey, Ibuki, and Nobutsuna's students.

Yasuke isn't more prominent in story cutscenes than Naoe; they work as a team and they both get the spotlight.

As silly as Alcibiades was, the game also had Socrates, who alone could cancel even 10 silly Alcibiadeses.

Note, I have no opinion on Shadows as I didn't play it yet. This is just an opinion on Odyssey.
