    i've seen a few bugs myself but it's definitely a 10/10 for me. sometimes i just love walking around and visiting places because it's the most beautiful game i've ever seen. combat is some of the most fun and engaging i've seen and it's so satisfying when you do it right, especially during the boss fights
    i thought the combat was simple at first, but it really cranks it up later on when you have to fight multiple enemies at once that really know what they're doing.
    the bow is also amazing. pretty OP but i've been in the middle of a fight and headshot 4-5 enemies in a row and they were just dropping like flies and the audio cues just make it feel so good.
    the Ghost doesn't play exactly like i thought it would. it's more focused on extra tools you can get and just breaking a moral code by choosing to fight dirty over honor. at first i wanted it to play more like a ninja assassin but i do like how it kinda merges with his normal combat. he's just becoming a really badass samurai that's willing to do anything to win. in the end, i actually like it this way better
    my favorite way to play right now is just hard mode, no damage reduction charms with the traveler's coat on. i have the 2nd combat armor but i just like the design of the traveler's coat and it makes every fight feel extremely dangerous with little to no armor.
    while i have enjoyed running around and doing the crazy assassination combos, my favorite thing is usually to challenge them all at once and devastate them with parries and bursts of speed and instakills

      @@cletustrainer 'most games in my collections are at least 8s'. Exactly. Basically any competent game is an 8. But most full priced games are roughly competent. If everything is an 8, then there's no 5's. 5 isn't 'average', it's 'the worst thing ever'.
      Being an 8 has no meaning, it's not a sign of excellence just basic competence.

      Jin pays for what he’s done properly. The methods he uses eventually make the people he cares about question and betray him. Although he wins at the end of the day, he loses much in his crusade against the mongols. It’s a beautifully written story that tells revenge in a poetic fashion. Fulfilling what the consumer expects, while also surprising them in a thoughtful way. I really love the evolution of Jin and Sucker Punch’s take on a good revenge story.

    @epicnoble 3 года назад +2

    Great review, but just missing a few aspects of the game that really are rewarding that I would like to add.
    1.) Legend Missions to unlock new special attacks and special armor. These are fun and often come down to a duel which WAB totally forgot to mention. Good writing as well outside of the story missions. Yes the missions can be samey, but often come with good writing and story that make you want to do them. Just great writing everywhere even on side missions.
    2.) Side Quests are plentiful and meaningful as they give you good resources for unlocking more ammo amounts, armor upgrades, etc.
    3.) General events in the world like a hostage rescue situation often gets you more intel towards another side mission. Making random encounters worth more than Assassins Creed that would just throw combat at you for the sake of combat.
    4.) The dueling system is quite difficult. When you have a story based duel that occurs it can be quite difficult.
    5.) The wind mechanic to guide you to your next map point. They literally use particle effects and wind animations to guide your character to a point of interest you mark on the map, which keeps you grounded in the world and I actually really like this almost like a calming part of the game getting you to the next point.
    6.) Haiku moments are really special which allow you to craft haiku's while looking at the game world.
    7.) Armor designs are spectacular! The Gosaku armor and even the Saikai Armor are such awesome designs. You unlock more of the armor set with each upgrade and unlock special perks. When you begin with the armor its pretty bare, but when you fully upgrade it the helmet design changes and the main armor will be beefier looking. I liked this upgrade system, not deep, but the visual aspect of it is amazing.
    8.) Only play this game on hard the other modes are too handicapped to really enjoy the combat.

    I'm a bit nervous the camera thing will kill it for me. Is this something you can get used to? Or do you think they can fix it in a patch somehow?
