demo'd it on stadia. basic combat is better than origins/odyssey, there's some hit stop and the animation work, while janky, is far, far better than the lifelessness of odyssey.
By Laboured Go To Postffs DYhe had a bad week with his boy losing, let him clobber some seals to relax.
By Laboured Go To PostState of some of these mad lads.
Upsetting to think what DY might do to them.
did they really put a grey squirrel in 9th century europe? a species that only got introduced here 1000 years later? how did this grey squirrel get here from north america? did it swim 7000km? what is this shit. Boy, i really hope someone got fired for that blunder.

There's a section that takes place in North America.

By DY_nasty Go To Postthe voice acting is pretty cool until the audio glitches hit lolThe mixing/levels is aaaaawwwwwwful.
Music was pretty epic tho
from the 1.5 hours I played on Stadia I did come across two RDR2 style events. One with some sleepwalking dude and went on a date with some widow.
It really is strange to complete a quest in a ubisoft game that wasn't fetching an item or clearing out an encampment.
The presentation of the intro was surprisingly well done with the glitching. Horrible to play though. Just pressing forward and the kid had some awful VA.
also male eivor >>>> female eivor

i cant believe a ubi game of all things managed to clinch best looking game, i didn't think we'd see environments like this until horizon 2
By sy Go To Postalso male eivor >>>> female eivorIt's true but certain places will die screaming the opposite of this
By RATHasReturned Go To PostAsscreed still has Animus stuff?Yeah but it’s pretty insignificant
Ubi ruins all the new weapons they add by making them all god awfully slow compared to the default sword/axe
Is this actually any good then? Main thing I want is a story that is told well, even if it's by the numbers. Origins was a fucking mess in that regard and is the last one I played, complete waste of a good character.
By sy Go To PostValhalla on PS5 uses it's save as the activity card so you can instantly load into the game.
very halal of ubi.

It's not very polished. Feels like it's going to be the last one of this type as things like the animations, models, and the engine in general are really showing their age.
I'm liking the exploration and the raids are kind of fun. The combat is ok, but the lack of polish just makes everything feel a bit more janky that I remember from Origins.
The story is probably the best thing about it for me. That's not a particularly high bar to reach, but I like the characters and how it's played out so far. Feels like it's moving at the right pace and taking you to new locations not to quick or too slow. I do wish they would just throw you in at the deep end and have you spend time doing disguised tutorial missions, but their game development bible probably doesn't allow it.
This is the first AC where I almost never use stealth because the abilities, weapon options and skills give me enough variety that I actually kind of enjoy the combat. I'm hoping there's a way to fill your adrenaline much quicker as an unlock.
By DY_nasty Go To Post"are we the baddies" is so on point lmao
absolutely pounding these docile monasteries
Odin is real in this so they can't really complain when you bring out the jihad
This game is really something. There are points where it looks absolutely amazing and seconds later it turns to dog shit.
But when it looks good? Mannnn

When it cuts to modern day indoor bits it looks especially shit, some of the cutscenes have jackets hanging up that look like they’re single digit polygons.
I imagine the inconsistency comes from the mix of different studios, teams, and contractors working on it
the character models really are dogshit, wonder what happened. The eye shaders are real nice, but the hair and textures are pretty poor. Such a downgrade coming from Miles and DS. Or even Assassin's Creed origins. Some of the environments really are gorgeous though.
By Bungie Go To PostWhen it cuts to modern day indoor bits it looks especially shit, some of the cutscenes have jackets hanging up that look like they’re single digit polygons.All AAA ubisoft games are multi studio, global developments. I'd probably blame it more on the size of the game, a 6 year game developed in 3 or 4 years.

By Hitch Go To PostSounds like England
Hitch is right.
I'm supposed to get out of Norway as quick as possible right? I keep hearing that all the good stuff is introduced once you leave + this snow environment sucks
😂

there's a few good abilities and weapons in norway. maybe get those and then bounce.
thx
I think I'll focus on Demon Souls this week because this game is buggy as fuck but I didn't expect to be so annoyed by the awful audio. I'm glad I got it for $30 and hope it gets some good patches in before I return.
The awful mix, audio cutting in and out, etc

By Yurtlicious Go To Postcan we stop with the snow levelsi agree
By data Go To PostSurprised . Feel like we didn't hear much about the game up until releasehuh?
Really hope they can at least patch the audio issues in cutscenes. Lines being skipped, muted, desycnched with the video and desynched with the subtitles.
Finding the climbing very janky compared to Origins. Lack of a dedicated jump button is strange, feel like I'm less fluid getting around without it.
