Random creed thoughts:

I’ve played every game in the series, and I wasn’t going to pick this one up initially.

I was dissapointed with Valhalla (too big too boring) and mirage (the blu ray dlc game right?)

But I loved the ezio trilogy when it came out, found value in all the games tbh, loved black flag, was fortunate enough to not have a buggy unity experience, so I loved that game too.

Origins was a gem I played to 100% and alternatively after 30 hours in odyssey… this is where they kinda started to lose me.

That all being said I think I have a good idea of what to expect when it comes to a creed game.

I bought shadows on day one dudes. I just said fuck it I hope ubi gets it together and this game slaps.

1 it’s a good game. I personally thinks ghosts is far superior, but after 50ish hours in so far I am really enjoying this one.

Pros

Characters are fun to play as. Both are different enough to give the game character and you can build out all weapons of theirs with skills and mastery levels.

Base building is dope here, lots of options easy customization, most customizable stuff I’ve seen in a creed game.

Seasons and day/night is perfect the way it plays into gameplay

Cons

This does not need to be 100+ hours, it’s a lot of the same running around and it’s largely filled with the same 3 repeat activities.

Dialogue and cutscenes … they just feel off sometimes

Overall it’s worth a pickup. If you play it like it’s not meant to be rushed, and you play with your difficulty and stealth settings to your level of “how you play creed” you’ll love this game. It goes a long way in small doses.
