When Noaa yells at Yasuke when they fight and says “ you slaughtered innocents” Yasuke pins her down and then he sees the hidden blade she has and was concerned about it and I think that means he will end up becoming an Assassin
I think he recognises it from horror stories told by templars of shadows that kill without a trace. Think if the trailer of Altair where he kills a guy with a throwing knife was told as a warning story among fellow templars to watch their backs in the darkness
There were so many outfits in this build already! This one was likely an endgame one, I guess it might hint at Yasuke having had to deal with Templars in the past... maybe?
@@acmartialarts2227 the game is obviously not going to save Ubisoft considering they need more bangers than just one banger. But to say this game won’t make them enough money to satisfy them and to keep them afloat, I think is a little idiotic to say. Considering without assassin‘s Creed, the modern gaming scape would not be what it is today
Yeah, I feel like the story will be pretty lackluster. I mean it's the same team that made Syndicate and Odyssey. Those games had the least memorable stories of the franchise.
No animation for walking up stairs?!.. even AC Unity from 10 years ago had that.. adding so much detail, but forgetting to add a walking up and down stairs animation. Amazing. No walking up stairs animation makes the game look immediately like a ps3 game.
During your playtime, have you encountered anything associated with Hattori Hanzo? Is he a member of the league?(the brotherhood) I know he existed at the same time as Nobunaga, and in previous (possibly retconned) AC lore, Hanzo was established as a member of the Japanese Brotherhood.
I'm more interested on canon mode gameplay. that's what I'm looking forward. I hope they'll update old AC too including Valhalla, Origins and Odyssey with canon mode too.
So it seems that the use of the birds has been replaced by the observe mechanic. Also, is double assassination a skill or is it unlocked from the start?
Yep, we are the eagles now, basically, it feels a little more personal, like you are discovering. And Double Assassination is a skill like most other special assassinations!
What do you think about the modern day content? Did you find it "satisfying" or does it seem lazy? Does it evolve the modern day storyline? I ask as an hardcore fan, I'm afraid I'll be very disappointed from that point of view. In term of pure gameplay, the game seems great!
@@Astristul the modern day has still to be properly revealed in the animus hub so there is lots still to see. Id imagine they will feature along with Basim somehow. They can't just kill off those characters after the last couple games
I was really excited to play as Yasuke but can't climb for a shit. Shouts when assassinating put me off badly. Noe can do all that and still be good in a fight; his kind of pointless. The game is punishing you for a choice they are giving you. I'm still gonna play though
I've been playing AC since I was about 10; I'm 29 now. I've been playing since AC1. I've always been a fight-first, stealth-if-I-have-to player. The idea that he can't parkour and assassinate, can't reach any high places, kind of annoys the hell out of me. They made it viable to fight, good as noe, but give Yasuke mostly negatives; why would we want to play as him?
*wow they done pretty good job on environment real life scale. but still my biggest disappointment is Yasuke can't do stealth & hidden blade kills. they should have start game yasuke with samurai skills & then middle if the story he backme assassin & can do stealth & hidden blade. if they done this really this game would be a huge comeback but otherwise it's boring.
Thank you for this analysis! The fighting mechanics seems to be like a step backwards, compared to Odyssey, or even Valhalla! It looks as bad as it was in Origins.
@@Grandtemplar305 I am not too sure to be honest, I still seem to be getting an Odyssey vibe that has been reskinned with a Japanese appearance, not impressed with the open combat, Yasuke is not a patch on Jin Sakai as he seems slow and boring. Maybe I still need to see more to be fully convinced that this game has its own identity
@ I am not! But naturaly its going to be as the two are comparable, but that said upon release I would hope the distinctions between the two would really show. So far from what I have seen I am more “ Meh “ rather than brimming with excitement, I just hope when I experience the final product ubisoft have done enough to change the formula from the ground up, which at first glance they have not.
it's not woke bcz it's a game 😂 only woke thing here is y adding female characters in male established games & make male characters weak zero stealth? 😂
Ubisoft isnt making good games anymore 1.) GR breaking point is one of worst shooting games i played by ubisoft. 2.) Valhalla is worst game as well and its first game i downloaded crack cause of negative reviews i didnt wanted to pay $50 for full game on sale, and reviews are right game is boring and so sad cant even play more than 10 hours. I played 13 hours maybe 3.) Far cry 6 is one of worst as well too big map and looks same copy paste things, finished story asap i could and deleted the game didnt even try to play sode missons or anything but story was bad too. I hope ubisoft will make good games rather than money snatching addons. I loved black flag orgins, odessy far cry 3, 4 ,5 new dawn, primal and will alwyas love them, i did played wildlands it was good, i got all these games on ps4 and pc both but i will buy old ac games like unity and others but i wont pay anymore for new games by ubisoft they never fix their bugs in games like far cry 5 reverse button isnt working on pcs. Ubisoft died thanks to their greed
*ngl Valhalla is way better gameplay wise 😂😂 negative reviews are bcz stealth is less. same thing here y yasuke can't be a assassin & explore open world like naoh?
When Noaa yells at Yasuke when they fight and says “ you slaughtered innocents” Yasuke pins her down and then he sees the hidden blade she has and was concerned about it and I think that means he will end up becoming an Assassin
It surely means he has seen a Hidden Blade before!
@ yea but I think he will become and assassin in the game because him and noaa are allies
I think he recognises it from horror stories told by templars of shadows that kill without a trace. Think if the trailer of Altair where he kills a guy with a throwing knife was told as a warning story among fellow templars to watch their backs in the darkness
I really like the parkour system in this game. It’s been a huge improvement over previous games, and it looks really cool.
I hope Yasuke can have Shays legacy outfit! The squared look of the outfit fits Yasukes bulkier design, and is a Templar outfit!
There were so many outfits in this build already! This one was likely an endgame one, I guess it might hint at Yasuke having had to deal with Templars in the past... maybe?
@@AccessAnimus Oooo, interesting!
@AccessAnimus oooo, interesting!
Hope this Shadows game will eventually be a success. Ubisoft will make one of the biggest comebacks ever Good luck Ubisoft.
Same! I really do, it really left a good impression on me, it looks very polished and super fun to play!
I don’t think so
@@acmartialarts2227 the game is obviously not going to save Ubisoft considering they need more bangers than just one banger. But to say this game won’t make them enough money to satisfy them and to keep them afloat, I think is a little idiotic to say.

Depends on if they sell their "time savers"
I hope so 🙏 really ubisoft is the best .
They should really allow Yasuke to climb more surfaces and structures. Just make him very slow but make it possible.
Yasuke will be a Templar at first then will betray the order and join the assassins
That’s really original never heard about that one
Yeah, I feel like the story will be pretty lackluster. I mean it's the same team that made Syndicate and Odyssey. Those games had the least memorable stories of the franchise.
It was impossible to be stealthy in Valhalla even in easy mode all the guards had the eyes of a hawk
This time it’s feasible! You just need to know the tools at your disposal, including darkness 😁
False. Stealth is very doable. It's not the priority but it's not impossible at all
No animation for walking up stairs?!.. even AC Unity from 10 years ago had that.. adding so much detail, but forgetting to add a walking up and down stairs animation. Amazing. No walking up stairs animation makes the game look immediately like a ps3 game.

He’s in the game an I’m pretty sure he’s gonna be the leader of the Japanese brotherhood
I hope he's playable in this game someday!
I'm more interested on canon mode gameplay. that's what I'm looking forward. I hope they'll update old AC too including Valhalla, Origins and Odyssey with canon mode too.
Hm, the equipment has level. Is that mean we again have a ton of random generated items like in odyssey or i miss something?
So it seems that the use of the birds has been replaced by the observe mechanic. Also, is double assassination a skill or is it unlocked from the start?
Yep, we are the eagles now, basically, it feels a little more personal, like you are discovering.
And Double Assassination is a skill like most other special assassinations!
At least now they give the expansion for free 10hrs content and new regions
Finally it's the "a couple of weeks before release" previews season, and with that more Acces the Animus videos. ❤❤❤
What do you think about the modern day content?
Did you find it "satisfying" or does it seem lazy?
Does it evolve the modern day storyline?
I ask as an hardcore fan, I'm afraid I'll be very disappointed from that point of view.
In term of pure gameplay, the game seems great!
I swear to god they haven't changed the godawful horse animations in years
Yeah those similar.. even the sounds of the horse galloping are quite similar
Hopefully Shaun and Rebecca are back in the modern day
Hopefully so! Though it does seem they're trying to have a clean slate!
@@AccessAnimus Bah!...well it's "near future" so im going to keep my hopes up!
From what I've heard in JorRaptor's live, it seems that they're not going to be in it.
@@Astristul the modern day has still to be properly revealed in the animus hub so there is lots still to see. Id imagine they will feature along with Basim somehow. They can't just kill off those characters after the last couple games
@@Dd-fb2tj we'll see ...
So there will be a modern day story part? I liked it very much in the previous AC games with Desmond
There will be some Modern Day content in the game!
And also some additional Modern day content in the Animus Hub platform!
Tbh I didn't think I'll be that impressed.
I am interested how Basim will affect on AC Shadows.
I was really excited to play as Yasuke but can't climb for a shit. Shouts when assassinating put me off badly. Noe can do all that and still be good in a fight; his kind of pointless. The game is punishing you for a choice they are giving you.
I'm still gonna play though
Yes, I wouldn't say punishing, but that's what I meant by saying that the world seems to be more designed for Naoe...

They made it viable to fight, good as noe, but give Yasuke mostly negatives; why would we want to play as him?
Choices should have consequences though
Really great review. You didn’t mention anything about micro transactions. I wonder if you were able to ask the devs about this?
I am ready!!
It’s ok. The yasuke player is nonexistent.
*wow they done pretty good job on environment real life scale. but still my biggest disappointment is Yasuke can't do stealth & hidden blade kills. they should have start game yasuke with samurai skills & then middle if the story he backme assassin & can do stealth & hidden blade. if they done this really this game would be a huge comeback but otherwise it's boring.

The only thing that i dont like its the combat, it looks horrible!😕
still too much woke influence. Why black man is in japanese culture ffs
You realise how this makes you sound, right?
The game is made by Canadians not Japanese
@@acmartialarts2227not to mention the Japanese have used this black dude a decent amount of times. Shouldn’t matter if other people do it
it's not woke bcz it's a game 😂 only woke thing here is y adding female characters in male established games & make male characters weak zero stealth? 😂
Because it's an interesting setup. Can't you see because you are blinded by the anti-woke hype train?
