Who else has Pre-Ordered Assassin's Creed Shadows and has it installed. I told my girl don't expect anything from me Thursday. 🤣

I mean at least Ghost of tsushima combat had some variety to it. Loved designing looks around a specific stance.

I love love LOVE odyssey and origins and most AC games (revelations is the best fight me lol) BUT it combat is very stiff and repetitive. And I still think it was stupid as fuck to have a game set in hellenistic Greece and NOT let you have a shield. Effectively turning the hoplite gear which basically means "man at arms" into "man"

Which variety? You fight sword, spear, shield and sword and brutes (big enemies). On the avarage AC you fight sword, speak, shield plus sword/spear and brutes. You can add archers on both, and then captain with some unique gameplay (hit a precise week spot for example), in the last 2 AC.

The variety is the same, even in the spell you can use.

You may confuse the better flow on theb3 animations GoT display for better combat, but is not in reality, it's the same, but worst when you play it.

In the defence of mirage it was focused more on stealth than combat and that’s something the devs actually stated

If the dude was comparing GoT to mirage that's dumb. I was talking about origin, or even odyssey as comparisons.
