I'm definitely going to use Naoe more, especially with the grappling hook. The stealth looks satisfying. The "wanted level" in Mirage really made me do a lot of things in stealth mode, so I'm just going to continue being stealthy here. :ndd:

Yasuke looks like a brute, so his movements can look a bit heavy/slowish, which is common when you are using a playable character that is a bit large in size.
 
Man, this looks phenomenal. The sheer level of detail when Yasuke first enters the town is just stunning. My excitement has jumped right up.

Also, I'm hoping we don't have to use that big heavy club as much. I would love to play Yasuke as close to a Musashi style samurai as possible. Strong and maybe a bit brutish but all sword technique and agility over whatever that ground pound was haha.

Naoe looks incredible too. It's wild how quickly that demo made me forget about Ghost of Tsushima. The games seem very distinct now? Love how defined both the protags are and it seems much more exciting to me to have two characters who each specialise in different gameplay and abilities, with different worldviews, over having the one protagonist who is amazing at EVERYTHING?
 
An Assassins Creed game where you can play as an actual assassin again. Crazy times.

This looks so good and as Ghost of Tsushima will never come to Xbox this looks like it will at least scratch that itch for me.

Just have to wait for the price to fall to something sensible to pick it up.
 
It still reminds me a lot of Ghost of Tsushima and I've seen a lot of comments from social media saying that GOT just came out when its been 4 years.

But I think it would be hard not to compare this to that game.
 
Infinity was a cool name.

I'm assuming Animus Hub is a free app that just links to different games. And if you don't have a certain game, it will lead you to Ps store or Ubisoft store.
 

Translation:

Leak Express: Assassin's Creed Shadows is being ported to Switch 2. The intention is to have it ready for the launch window of Nintendo's new console. The ports of Assassin's Creed Mirage, Valhalla, Odyssey and Origins will also arrive, the latter two in a bundle
 
The game should be better than Valhalla and Mirage. Also, its not helpful it would be compared a lot to Ghost of Tsushima.

But so far based from social media posts from Ubisoft, Japan here looks amazing.
 
I do think the comparisons to Ghost of Tsushima and Ninja Gaiden are why they haven’t done Japan sooner
 
The answer for that is obvious. Japan has been featured in a lot of videogames and they wanted to feature other locations that weren't really adapted in an open world environment.

As much as a AC game set in Japan is exciting, a game set in Ancient Mongolia, India, Korea, Peru or other European countries, that aren't showcased much in videogames would have been 10 times more interesting.
 
Hmm, releasing it in the same year as Yotei isn't good timing either. Going to Japan this late, really led to unnecessary comparison between two franchises. Shadows better be good, especially with this delay. Valhalla was so buggy during the first few months. Shadows probably isn't that running that well for them to delay it in February.
 
Ubisoft crawling back to Steam with Day 1 releases... Time to update this:

Ubisoft's Board is Launching an Investigation Into The Company Struggles

I don't think its that hard to imagine why the company struggles right now. They are working with so many projects and a lot of their triple A games haven't been critically acclaimed games. If the games are mostly a 9, rather their usual 7, I bet the sales would have been better.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 - who knows how many millions they have poured into this by now and if its still under development
Skull and Bones - took several years to be released and the game wasn't even worth the wait
Prince of Persia remake - rebooted from scratch after a bad reveal trailer reaction
A bunch of mobile, VR, free to play and side projects that take years to be made only for them to come and go.

And now the quality control is affecting their other games which could have great rather being just average/mid-tier games that don't leave much impression when all things said and done.

I’ve been playing video games since the 1980s, and anybody playing video games mostly for ‘historical accuracy’ is laughable.

Yeah that’s true. For example, in world war 2 when people were shot they probably didn’t just spawn at a different part of the map
