Refunded

[Michaelsmithe]

After seeing the early reviews, My fears were confirmed. The game looks great from a visual perspective, maybe not Ghost of Tsushima levels, but for an AC game it truly looks beautiful. But everything else just looks bad
1. Two Protagonist is a bad system, anyone defending this is just wrong, if you want to be a big straightforward non-stealth guy, go play a different game, this is a stealth series and should have only focused on Naoe.
2. Writing is awful, not to mention your choices simply don't matter, if you pick "the wrong" choice, the game just tells you, that you're wrong and picks the right option for you.
3. Back to the old leveled gear system. It didn't work for Odyssey, and it doesn't work for any Assassins Creed game. Valhalla did it right, different gear that you can upgrade and have different abilities. It's a bad system and makes no sense for the series.
4. Still for some reason making assassinations worthless(though there is a button to switch to instakill assassinations). IN ASSASSINS CREED ASSASSINATIONS SHOULD BE INSTAKILLS. it's kinda the point? it's not like these dudes walking around and are demi-gods. they are normal people and last i checked if i stabbed you in the neck, you ain't gonna make it, or fight back at least.
5. Area traversal has been downgraded. you can't climb up mountains anymore, but this seems more like a system devised to make players try and play Yasuke more, as he isn't a good at assassin stuff...in an assassins creed game...

i could go on, those who didn't buy, congrats you won again. if you haven't done it, refund it. it's really not worth it.

hey you can buy it, i'm not saying you can't, after all it's your money. It just sucks. Hell i was hoping this would be good. a Japan focused AC game? that something i've been asking for since Brotherhood. Ubisoft just lost the plot is all.

exactly.

1. Agreed. Yasuke is simply inferior to Naoe; Naoe will be able to sweep in combat late game, but Yasuke will never be able to parkour. It's bizarre.

2. There's free choice mode and "canon" mode, where you experience the game's canon storyline automatically. You were watching someone do the latter.

3. It sucks.

4. The option is there, so what's the problem? It loops back into 3, but you and I agree 3 sucks, so we'll just enable instakill.

5. I guess?

Visually, it’s a stunner—maybe not Ghost of Tsushima’s gold standard, but it’s peak AC gorgeousness. As for the gripes: Two protagonists?

Sure, it’s not classic stealth-only, but Naoe’s ninja vibes are pure AC bliss, and Yasuke’s brawler style adds a fun twist—think of it as a bonus, not a betrayal.

Writing’s got some cheese, and choice impact could hit harder, but the tale still hooks with its revenge-fueled drama. Leveled gear’s back, yeah, but it’s not a dealbreaker—hunting for that next epic drop keeps the loot loop spicy.

Assassinations needing a toggle for instakills is quirky, but flip that switch and you’re golden—neck-stabs galore! Traversal’s tighter, true, though it’s less “downgrade” and more “focused”—Naoe’s parkour still shines, and Yasuke’s not meant to scale cliffs, he’s busy smashing faces.

Refund if it’s not your vibe, but Shadows is a bold, beautiful stab at blending old-school stealth with new tricks. Give it a whirl—you might just ninja your way into loving it!
