Well it's also the first Assassin's Creed since this gen really started so it's only competing with Far Cry 6 and Just Dance.
It's a terrible game. Look at the limited stealth mechanics.
i hope you are wrong!
That doesn't make it terrible. That just makes it a game that you don't like.
It's half arsed for an assasins title,and for someone who played the first few titles. They give us this instead amongst other mediocre titles, instead of making beyond good and evil.
Wonder if this has anything to do with the launch price as I never buy a far cry or assassins creed full price cuz it always drops after literally only a few weeks but when I saw it at £34.99 I grabbed it without hesitation… and even now I see it at 39.99 i still think it’s a steal
I'm sure that helps, probably quite a bit.
Shame all games couldn’t release at that price cuz image the numbers
Good for them, people were asking for an old stile AC game for a very long time. I think the series can easily go on with a mix of old style games and new rpg style game. Also it probably helps because most likely development costs are smaller which helps with the company profits and future investments.
Too bad the game is mid
the last few games was good ye but the they only had the assassins creed name in common this has gone back to its roots
If U have played the series from the start, you will know why they had to do the rpg route. It all makes sense if you follow the lore
When will they drop last gen?
Supposedly next year's AC Red set in Japan will be the first game built for current gen.
