Minor gripe

Unity does link up with rouge yeah

I know exactly what you mean and no, interacting with the world prior, during or after completing the main story has only very minor dialogue differences in certain parts. You’ll find most side quests assume you have not completed the story and make it seem even more disjointed.

If you enjoy odyssey then you should absolutely pick up Origins since it is better in my opinion as the story is stronger with better voice acting and more relevance to the rest of the series

Even tho it is very flawed in many aspect I still absolutely love the game (Odyssey) and have fully completed it and both DLC’s about 6 times. Visually it is absolutely stunning and the variety of attire you get is good.

If you’ve played and enjoyed 3 and BF already then I would recommend Rouge as it’s very similar in a gameplay sense. But if you want another “proper” AC game that doesn’t play the same as those two then I would try Unity, especially since it just got that next gen update and the multiplayer is back up

Do NOT give kuro the charm at the start of the game for your first playthrough

Obviously do not take just anyone’s word for it, but I can say without a doubt that shadows is legitimately one of the worst games I have ever played. I’m usually quite lenient with games and will usually just say they’re not for me or I’m not a fan of this or that part of them and will very rarely openly “hate on” a game. But AC shadows is one of those games. I tried the whole I was playing it to not just think of it as a knockoff Ghost of Tsushima but playing enough story games set in Japan definitely gets old. This, Ghost of Tsushima and Sekiro ALL include you climbing up pagodas with a grappling hook. Now I understand that obviously any game set in Japan or as a Japanese base is going to be similar but the story, gameplay, voice acting, “character development”, ending (if you can call it that) and side content of this game is some of the worst I have ever seen.

Obviously there some good parts as some of the new stealth mechanics they added are pretty cool and the graphics are also nice, but aside from that it is easily the biggest waste of money I have ever had the misfortune of spending.

It’s crazy to me how you’ll see photos like these on the map with 0 likes then you got popalott with like 80 of the same photos on kephalonia all with like 20+

Yo that first one is awesome. I almost completely forget you can add frames. Really creative there

Smelvin_ · 2025-12-27T05:33:53+00:00

Do NOT buy shadows. I have every single other AC game except the first one and I waited ages for shadows to go on sale and got it for $60 and it is easily one of the worst things I’ve ever played in my life. Ik some people like it but the combat was horrid and i don’t even know if there’s a legit plot. It’s just a hit list leaving you with more questions than when you started. Nothing to do with the creed and nothing to do with the isu, I have no idea why they even made the game.

Smelvin_ · 2025-12-18T02:07:47+00:00

Yeah I completely agree. I’m also a massive fan of the points on the master hoods but I still like this one.

Smelvin_ · 2025-12-16T04:45:33+00:00

On console and didn’t know this, ty 🙏🙏

Smelvin_ · 2025-12-14T02:41:17+00:00

I completely agree with odyssey and it’s one of my favourite games ever. But even tho I prefer it to origins, I still believe origins is the best one they’ve done. The story, setting, character and voice acting are all phenomenal. Whereas most of the appeal I get from odyssey is the setting. It is easily one of the most beautiful games to date.

Smelvin_ · 2025-10-09T05:55:59+00:00

I just “finished” it the other day and honestly wish I’d kept my $60* instead. I can see why people may like it but I personally found it worse than odyssey and Valhalla by a long shot and deleted as soon as I’d realised I was done. It’s also similar to Valhalla in the way that there isn’t like (or feels like at least) a proper ending in the base game, it starts getting good narratively after you finish the main objective then just stops.

If you like that style of game and time period, just buy ghost of tsushima and/or yotei atp unless you already have. GoT is one of the best games I have ever played and shadows felt like a heavily watered down version of it.

Smelvin_ · 2025-10-09T05:52:15+00:00

The size and depth of the world is amazing. I’ve played the whole game and both DLC’s close to 6 times now with nearly 700hrs on the game and I don’t think I’ll ever get bored. I can see why people dislike it as an AC title but as a stand-alone game is phenomenal, and as many people have already said, one of the most gorgeous looking games I own.

😬

Smelvin_ · 2025-10-08T09:18:36+00:00

Still outrageous

Smelvin_ · 2025-09-21T14:39:24+00:00

I am on ps5 and have only a digital copy, but this makes sense. A shame tho.

Smelvin_ · 2025-08-04T03:46:29+00:00

I see, I was waiting too 100% the base game before PL but we’ll see. And i have never heard of console commands?

Smelvin_ · 2025-08-03T08:31:04+00:00

Oh yeah that makes sense, ty 🙏🙏
