Rahul Vinod I loved this game right from the beginning, I am actually not too critical of Ubisoft in general, I give them credit for trying to please such a variety of gamers with different tastes. Their take over Ghost Recon brand is fantastic. And their general focus on changing linear game design to sandbox experience is very much welcomed. Cyperpunk is an example of a studio trying to make something above their pay grade. They probably build the foundation in 2014, and spent 6 years just making mechanics and physics functional, that’s why Cyberpunk gameplay and AI feels pre 2010, like close to original AC games.

17:45 most of the “viking.” Feel in combat you are looking for is hidden behind the skill wall. When you get to gear score 80-90 you start becoming a complete power house in combat switching between abilities, weapon moves, and special skill types from the skill tree. One of my favorite would be duel wielding heavy weapons such as spears, two handed axes, or even great swords. ^

I think the TLDR is, if you’re a fan of the era, it’s VERY easy to forgive issues like combat not being great. Also the game (graphics, story, music) is so immersive, I just love the feeling it gives me.

@Jan Rikardsen Dude, Black Flag has probably the worst melee combat I've seen in my life, 3 was a bit better. Unity was slow and floaty but better than Syndicate, and earlier games were either waiting around for counters or braindead killing sprees in Brotherhood. The franchise never had good combat.

That's where my mind went after watching this video. I'd have loved to see a heavy focus on the combat. Huge battles, people everywhere, mud in the camera and having to use your shield to block incoming attacks from different angles. You shouldn't even be able to see through the crowd. Instead it's just a guy sliding around the floor with a wooden axe whilst his opponents throw random attacks while 15m away. This would probably have been a great game 15 years ago. It seems I'm a minority but I don't care how good my characters beard can look if I just have to button mash my way through the game.

Very High settings with a 2070S, i9-9900KS, 32GB Ram on 1440p UW averaging 50-60fps, which is very playable imo. Probably not the best on performance/graphics on PS4 gen, otherwise the game looks and plays stunningly, These graphics are easily the best is the AC series to date, and it's not close. Still the best game reviewer on youtube! Keep up the good work ACG.

It saddens me to see that stealth isn’t even really considered in reviews of AC games these days due to it not being that notable. I remember the days where you played as a badass Assassin that could blend into crowds, free-run over intricate cityscapes, and sneak into heavily guarded compounds to take out a target without anyone suspecting a thing. It was the best feeling and such a unique one compared to all the other games out there. The Assassin’s Creed games were known for their innovations in epic stealth gameplay which was what the Creed order in the story was all about, and it feels like they’ve just given up on pushing the boundaries of great stealth. And don’t even get me started on how they ruined an originally great and promising story.

EXACTLY!! Im actually offended that people are praising this game to be the best one out. I'm convinced that none of them actually played the original AC and noted everything you mentioned that made AC what it truly was. After unity or syndicate the play style just went out the window and became something completely different. Also the stealth mechanics are terrible. All you do is hide in bushes and 6/10 you can't even assassinate anyone because they're clumped together in large groups in a fort. The air assissnation is the only mechanic that is still present. The parry/counter kills were also extremely fluid and cooler than just parrying and dodging attacks. I'm relieved that at least one person recognized how the real AC was before this garbage. And honestly odyssey and origins were way better and had a stronger story structure than this one.

It looks like you didn't touch on the different abilities you unlock. To me they feel pretty impactful to combat for example when I throw both my axes at someone's torso or spear them then pummel them before gouging their eyes out. I've only unlocked a few.. I'm not speaking of the ones on the passive tree I mean the ones from the books you find.

One thing i didn't see you bring up in relation to the combat, is that the jank of it is also present in stealth gameplay. I dont know how but Ubisoft managed to make assassinations not fun and less polished than the original Assassins Creed.

Tsushima was worse than Nioh tbh. You had four stances and all they were about was countering specific enemies which was purely optional. Least Nioh made every weapon act in 3 very different ways you could build around to your prefered playstyle with each stance.

Fortunately there's more to games than the combat system. And let's face it Tsushima had a massive beautiful world - that was completely empty, lifeless and mind numbingly boring. At least ubisoft know how to fill their sandbox.
