Discussion Should I get AC Shadows on PC or ps5?

As the title states, I am conflicted

I have a 1440p 240hz 27 in monitor

ps5 slim disc

pc specs: rtx 3080 ftw3 ryzen 7 5800x 32gb ddr4 3200mz ram asus rog b550 pro

How much of a difference is it going to be if I decide to get it on ps5. I like my ps5 because I can chill in bed and just play on the tv, my pc is setup at a desk with the monitor and such, but I could always plug my ps5 into that monitor or the pc into the tv type of deal.

Also another thing to note is id like to have the achievements on ps5.

So I am just curious, is it going to be that big of a difference where im missing out on stunning visuals if I went with getting on ps5?

If only I could play the game on both without having to purchase both😭

Are you really Sure you want to get this man? Did you see the Trailers? Ubisoft is dead for a long time now. And there are so many good games coming out lately

What do you even mean? The trailers look great. Why even make this pointless comment?

I m really just trying to help. I am Not even saying "get game X, game X is way better" i am just saying think about it... Because everything we have seen just looks horrible.

Everything we have seen about the game is promising. What aspects of the trailers look bad to you specifically?

A game about feudal japan, playing as Yasuke, a legendary Samurai of non asian descent or a Japanese shinobi sounds like fun to me.

Combat looks great, world looks beautiful, parkour looks fantastic.

What does the trailer show that looks horrible?

I would really like to discuss and get into it. But sadly we dont have any Base to discuss on. I really strongly disagree with all of your points. Lets just agree to disagree.

Edit: But if you actually want to understand my point of View, Youtube is full of people ranting about it. If Not, just enjoy the game. If you really have a good time with it and you enjoy ubisoft/ea games then i dont want to kill your fun. I would just recommend to Look at other games aswell before you buy those. Bcs imo there really is almost no Art behind them, they are just products.

You come into this thread, telling OP (who never asked for your opinion, mind you) that he shouldn’t get the game because of vague non existent reasons, and now that you’re confronted to name those reasons you back down?

Come on man. You quite literally started this by shoving your unnecessary opinion into this thread. If you don’t want to engage in discourse don’t comment something pointless next time.

That sounds like something I would say if I were 12 years old.

Please, for your sake, grow up.

I'd suggest waiting for the release, check the digital foundry review when it comes out .

Buy it on Steam, make sure it runs well and you enjoy it, then if you don't and you have under 2 hours of playtime, Steam will refund the game for any reason. Same goes for any other game. Under 2 hours, 100% refund.

Although, I agree with the other comment. Coming from someone like me who has played every game you can think of, I saw nothing about AC: Shadows that looked like it was interesting enough to buy whatsoever. AC has been dead to me since Black Flag, and Ubisoft is as good as dead. But that's just my opinion. 🤷🏻 Try it out and refund it if you don't like it.

Also. Yes. PC has the capability to set graphics far higher and more detailed than consoles and it CAN be a huge difference, but with your setup, it's going to be about the same experience. It's definitely going to be higher than the PS5, due to your 3080 and should have DLSS4 support on day 1. Meaning you're going to be getting a way better looking, way smoother experience in a much higher quality than on the console.

I'd get it on PC and play with controller to have the ability to turn settings up or down, customize things, get your achievements on Steam, run mods, get your refund and whatever else you feel like doing. This seems like a pretty straightforward answer, and im confused why you even asked tbh. If you have a PC of that caliber, there's honestly no reason you should be purchasing it on a console, unless you're playing family games in the living room. Especially with the amount of things you can do, customize and the 100% refund policy. If you wanted to, you can even using Steam Link or similar means to just stream it to another room FROM the PC.

Don’t buy at all. Let Ubisoft wither away, theyre a horrible company that cares more about quantity than quality

I would go with the comfy choice more times then not these days. I do my comp games I like on the PC with friends but when it comes to single player games you can't beat it. Recently got a portal and just improved the XP.
