WithAssassin’s Creed Shadowsfinally out, I’ve begun reflecting on my time with the series.
Suffice it to say, prior toOrigin’sreleasing, I had nothing but admiration and love for theAssassin’s Creedfranchise.
That changed somewhat when Ubisoft altered its approach to theACformula.
For all my talk about disliking the modern approach toAssassin’s Creed, I rather enjoyedOrigins.
I had hopedValhallawould scale back, and it almost did.
Rather than one seamless open world,Valhallais separated into distinct regions.
Eivor also controls horribly, as Valhalla features the worst parkour of the series.
Suffice it to say, I thinkValhallais absolutely awful.
I barely remember my time with them, which is why I feltShadowswouldn’t be a good fit.
However, I can’t resist anAssassin’s Creedgame, and I boughtShadowsimmediately.
Shadowsalso makes stealth funagain, for the first time sinceUnity.The parkour is a huge step-up fromMirageand especiallyValhalla.
No season pass, no intrusive microtransactions, and no early access period for pre-ordering makeShadowsa better experience.
