I was really hoping Kassandra would get her own Ezio style trilogy. you don’t even have to stick with Ancient Greece!

exquisite tea posted:Valhalla tried to be a 100-hour long RPG except without the parts that actually make an RPG fun and I don't think a single person on earth cared about Mirage so lets give the (correct) Odyssey likers another crack at it. valhalla is better than odyssey ...but origins is better than both and all three are literally 50+ hours too long so it's not even really a compliment tbh

Wolfsheim posted:valhalla is better than odyssey I can't agree. I liked Eivor, especially Lady Eivor, and I wanted to like Valhalla because it is not often I can go to my hometown and do a Viking raid on it, but I just could not get into Valhalla at all. Mind you my PC was barely running it back then, I should try again maybe with the new one. But ehh. I might just load up Odyssey again. Kassandra and Bayek and Eivor are all great. I want them to form a time-travelling group of supervigilantes and fight crime.

Perhaps all the online people constantly complaining about how AC needed to return to its roots was the real *waves hand in front of face* ...mirage all along.

Mirage felt bad to me because it was an attempt to use the Valhalla mechanics in a standard AC-alike and the two just don't mesh well. If it hadn't been an expanded DLC sold as a full game it could have been better.exquisite tea posted:Perhaps all the online people constantly complaining about how AC needed to return to its roots was the real *waves hand in front of face* ...mirage all along. That's the thing! It wasn't its roots. It was more akin to someone making an Assasin's Creed 2 mod in Valhalla

bows1 posted:Im enjoying Rise of the Ronin, but IM a little worried about late game frequent stance switching while fighting one boss... is that where we are headed? There are only a few bosses who use multiple weapons. The vast majority of the game, you're only going to swap stances mid-combat when you target a new enemy. You can also completely ignore the "effective stances" mechanic if you want, as it only increases the ki damage dealt by your parry and how long they're vulnerable after parrying an unblockable.

I just want to do the pirate ship stuff, for some reason the structure of the tutorial is poison to my enthusiasm.

I felt the two halves of the game (Black Flag) didn’t complement each other at all. And the Far Cry pouch upgrade hunting felt really out of place. That said, I didn’t play it for that long.

Ah got it, thats encouraging to hear. I just read that you can Counterspark DURING a block which makes things much more manageable.
