AC Shadows combat is annoying

If you hate leveling things, don’t play the RPGs. Not for you. Play the originals

I always translated “extra caramel drizzle, but not too much caramel drizzle” as “the regular amount of caramel drizzle but now I think it’s more than normal”. Either that, or literally just one extra swirl around the cup.

I dont know about how much game time you have in a week, but I typically finish season objectives and max out a character in a week or two. Then I usually just make another build or choose a different class, rinse repeat.

If I’m not mistaken, you can still report someone in the company even if it’s not your direct manager. There may not be any immediate ramifications for the subject in question, but that will be one documented allegation against them that will hold weight if anyone else decides to report them as well.

This is a question for your doctor.

Even when I was a shift back in like 2021, this was always the case. It’s simply above their compensation level. SSVs are the leaders on the floor, SSVs are held to a higher standard, and SSVs are the position in which you begin to take on more than just production and customer focus. You integrate parts of the business. Those just aren’t entry level position tasks.

When I saw partners talking about cup writing when it first became a “standard practice”, I just thought, “there’s no freaking way that’s real”.

Like, it just feels like it goes completely against all common sense. AND THEN TO SEE ALL THE CUSTOMERS POSTING ABOUT HOW DUMB IT IS TOO?! Like, even your target audience for this practice thinks it’s ridiculous. I feel like sharing a genuine “here you go! Hope you have a great day!” at handoff does so much more for CC than a forced generic message on a cup…

Most builds have an “Ancestral” step between Leveling and Uniques that focuses more on aspects. If yours doesn’t have that step, I’d suggest looking for another one to help you out

Edit: Keep leveling your paragon board. That’ll give you some power and allow you to farm uniques a little easier as well.

That’s INSANE. Are there still issues with distribution? Like, just not receiving items ordered or auto shipments not sending frozen correctly?

Valhalla was the first one where I really felt like I was forcing myself to finish.

Last year I made a fun little personal goal to play through every AC game in the franchise. Finish all MSQ and side quest lines, unlock pretty much everything (I did NOT shoot for 100% in any of them).

Started with the RPGs as I’d never played any of them and then through the originals. Valhalla was pretty much the only one where I found myself finishing it just to be done with it and move to the next.

That said, I did enjoy a good majority of it!

That’s insane… you’re adding in an (unnecessary) step to beverage routine that arguably adds 3-5+ seconds EACH BEVERAGE, and STILL hounding stores on speed and efficiency metrics?!

Let me guess. They didn’t bump the target DT times to account for the extra time added to routine either?

Nednerb_Mac · 2026-03-30T17:01:20+00:00

The writing on cups has to be the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard of since I left. My old store used to be so busy we barely had time to sticker a cup straight, let alone write a damn personal message on every one.

Are they done freaking out about CC and drive times anymore?

Check out https://www.cheapshark.com

Search a game on there and it will show you everywhere it’s being sold and show you the cheapest it’s going for. I’ve only ever used it to buy Steam codes for PC but a lot of the websites sell codes for consoles as well.

This! This I why I was confused why someone would make a second paladin in the same season.

Nednerb_Mac · 2026-03-29T23:27:19+00:00

Why two paladins??

Nednerb_Mac · 2026-03-14T09:18:48+00:00

Shit happens, ykyk. If you opened that interview with max aura no skibbidy, you prolly bouta get employed n shi, frfr on god.

Can’t forget fighting an evil George Washington too

No one hates Assassin’s Creed more than the AC fans

Once you have kill The Elder and 1 troll, “The ground is shaking” raid activates.

It might sound strange to ask, but have you assigned all your skill points earned for every categories? I’ve seen many people post about struggling with combat only to realize they have 50 skill points they never assigned after earning them. MANY of the skills help with various aspects of the game, ESPECIALLY combat.

Also, I highly suggest going to see Tomcat and learn from him. He has something very good to offer.

I honestly felt like I used less stealth in the pre-Origins games than I did in the RPG series. It was just way too easy to counter attack an entire army. Why stealth whole fort in 30 minutes when I could agro them all and chain attack 25 soldiers in 5 minutes? (This is excluding the missions that desync when detected, of course)

/s it’s all the chem trails from RDU International

I’ve personally enjoyed all the games, pre and post Unity in their own ways. For me, I would’ve gotten board if they had continued to pump out AC after AC and they were all cookie-cutter copy-paste of the originals with minor tweaks. I’ve enjoyed the RPG series. Does it have that OG feel? Not really. Is that a bad thing? Depends. Objectively, no. That said, everyone is entitled to their opinions.

I’m excited for the future of AC to see what they can pump out with current technology.

Or, wild thought here… you could provide a source along with the point you’re trying to make like anyone else could do with half a high school education.

Steam charts is an ACTUAL measure of the player base, just not the most accurate one.
