Itll be refreshing to go back to the classic style after the overly large RPGs theyve done lately. The game better not have optional objectives though. I hate Ubisofts optional objectives.

Yeah, I'm actually looking forward to this because it's a more structured, smaller experience. I am over the giant open world RPGs at this point.

SkillUp review criticized the game for returning to its roots without modernizing/updating it, and also didn't like the story & characters.

Not sure what they mean by "modernizing" though.

8/10 from a big games media company means "We hate it, so we're giving it the minimum score we give out to companies that it is important not to anger", right?

This game is going back to the pre-Origins style? Maybe I'll take a look because I hated the open world games. I'm guessing nothing happened in the modern day story.

I wouldnt count on it.

They get so dragged for how shitty its become post Origins that they decided to throw us a frickin bone. But its a one off unless things really go well.

Honestly one they went RPG style its like the tore out the soul of the series. As if they sold the franchise to Gamespot.

Feels more like it was sold to Fandom imo.

Probably fair. Modern Ubisoft develops games like their on an assembly line. That leads to not having any outstanding title.

How people can get excited for new entries in a series that started as recently as the PS3 and yet somehow has over a dozen mainline entries, plus a dozen more "spinoffs", is beyond me.

Sounds solid to me as someone who preferred the older pre Origins gameplay with an emphasis on stealth/hidden blade kills, blending with the crowd, notoriety/wanted posters, all that. I thought the Ezio games were the pinnacle of the series though I did still really enjoy Origins and Odyssey.

I like this idea of a more scaled down streamlined experience with an emphasis on the older style gameplay. But Im a fan of AC. I know people like to shit on the series but I have really loved it from the start and look forward to most of the titles. Not all but most.

Guys a 77 is still above average

Average for games is like around 73-75.

That doesn't makes sense >_>

Sounds like a solid game though.

Valhalla was getting jerked so hard. Thank god they realized the old style is better. I only played Odyssey cause Google gave it to me for free, and even then, it was only fun when I learned about the high damage/low health engraving.

I forgot all about this

Odyssey was my first AC game and I thought it was really fun but I only played Valhalla for a couple hours.

idk why they would change all the default controls from one game to the next in a series but it threw me off too much

I know I could change it easily and I'll play it eventually, but it just made me wonder why they would do that.

I'd love if it all major outlets agreed to lower their scores to 1/10 retroactively if a game pulls shit like this.
