Jorraptor is it true that Yamauchi Taka from Assassin's Creed Memories is originally the protagonist of Assassin's Creed Shadows before Yasuke and Naoe I just wanted to know if the rumors claimed by the former Ubisoft developer Chris Fisk are true I just want to know about that?

@@ragnarphillips1957 I´d think that would´nt matter, as for now Shao Jun is the Main connecting dot we have between European and Eastern Asian Assassins. Also iirc it is canon that the Japanese Brotherhood was founded by an Apprentice and Mentee of hers, so having her Outfit in Japan as a sort of legacy Outfit tied to a side quest line (think the Tombs in AC2 or the Romulus lairs in Brotherhood, the enigmas in Unity or the Music boxes in Syndicate, or the templar gear in Black Flag and Rogue) would actually make perfect sense.

I have been pretty sceptical of Ubisoft games these days and haven’t wanted to really buy any, but star wars outlaws I really enjoyed. Once I learned that this AC Shadows is being brought to us by the team who did AC Odyssey refreshed my optimism as AC Odyssey is one of my favourites.
You scared me with the bad news. I thought you were going to say Shadows was going to pushed back to April. Thanks it's only outfits. I'm okay with that.
NG+ is a very important feature for me as I like to play most of my games more than once. I just hope the NG+ for this doesn't end up being a lie like in valhalla, where they kept saying they were gonna do it but then at the last minute decided to scrap it.
They didn't lie about NG+ for Valhalla. They said if it was going to be added it would be after the last content update. People such as yourself took this as them saying yes we're adding NG+ when it's just them saying maybe it'll happen.
@ no, they said they were doing it and releasing it as the last update, got people hoping and then scrapped it for no reason. this is one of the reasons I have trouble trusting games that don't have NG+ at launch.

As I see it if an option exists to upgrade your scouts. Then I would suggest that it be taken full advantage of as soon as it becomes available. Because information is power. And having it as early as possible in the game can only help out the player.
The scout mechanic is just the old unlock map microtransaction, but slower and in in-game form. I would not be surprised if they are still going to sell that map unlock in the in game store, like in all the other games, making the scouts useless.

Yasuke could totally wear Shays outfit. To me, the big sell of that is the shape language of the outfit, its boxy, bulky, much like Yasuke. It doesn’t have a hood, and its a Templar outfit, which seeingly Yasuke starts on their side

Thanks for talking about the Parkour Jor! Really cool seeing such a big voice in the community picking up on something the parkour guys have been saying, it really means a lot!
Funny that I stumbled upon this game as my feed was blown up with youtubers hating on this game. But fell in love with it watching their videos lol. The architecture & environments look amazing and the gameplay looks cool. I am more of an FPS gamer but already pre ordered AC shadows.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035 No one gives a damn how the animus works at this point, not even Ubisoft themselves. They stopped caring after AC 3 and made the animus whatever they felt like. This is a dumb argument to make.
Seasons change every 2.5 hours??????? That would mean over 10 years would go by in a 100 hour playthrough!! It should be more like 6 hours to be more realistic
It’s funny how I never even play nor care about AC game, but the drama made me look into the game and actually interested in it. I’m now for sure getting the game. Even if it’s flop, I still can keep playing it since it’s single player game.
Honestly yeah. Granted as a long time fan of the series who owns every collectors edition. I am just gonna be blunt. Besides the DEI garbage and stuff the combat looks very unpolished. But the parkour is pretty gorgeous I must say. Not quite as good as unity but definitely top 5 for the series
It's strange cause a lot of the hate I've been seeing is coming from the fact that it's a buggy mess(with proof to Boot it) and it's misrepresent of the Japanese time period. So I don't know if that's hate, maybe just valid criticisms and frustration🤷
That outfit for Naoe with the shoulder cape is really cool, it has Ezio vibes, as well as the one they previously showed for Yasuke in the exploration article. Im also happy about the individual difficulty toggles for combat and stealth. I hope for the combat you can get in depth and do something like normal damage dealt/received but have more aggressive enemies, basically seperate enemy aggression from just raw damage values. I'd also like to know exactly what changes with higher stealth difficulty. Would be cool if they felt waay smarter rather than just spotting you quicker. Things like enemies hearing better and not easily cheesed or reset/shaken off when they are alerted.
For naoe all I need is a tekko-kagi (wolverine esc ninja claws) but I'd like her to utilize that with her hidden blade. I'm a little disappointed she can't use the naginata but that'd definitely make up for it.
7:48 Yes and Ropotopolous in my opinion was being SUPER harsh on PURPOSE to force a change from ubisoft. Imagine if they actually implemented this feature, and followed through with it, Shadows would benefit so much from the delay, and be one of the best AC games in the past few years.
A lot of reusing animations from previous ac titles you mean, and no, that is not something that should be tolerated in a "Next Gen Evolution" of the series. This is coming from a AC Purist.
@ doesn’t negate the fact they’re actually putting more effort into the game than previous entries. And if you feel that strongly about the animations, what are you doing to let them know and make your voice heard?
The worst part of the 2 characters is the intentional handicapping of the abilities of both...play as a normal assassin style woman with zero power, or play as a brute that cant do anything but swing an object hard...they literally stripped the whole point of these skills from 1 person to force us to play as 2....stupid tactic
@@averageguysgadgetguy Exactly! This is my main reason for holding out on pre order and the point I've been bringing up. Can't help but wonder what other dumb ideas made it into the game.
I’m not worried about the back side eject problem since roptopulous is pointing it out I’m sure that can be corrected before launch aside from that this parkour looks like it’s improved since mirage so that’s good
Legacy outfits would certainly be nice, especially since the physics on them haven't been great in the previous couple games and these cloth physics look lovely.
Depending on who you ask, that isnt bad news anyway Dont care for legacy outfits As for parkour, we'll see how it is at launch if it even comes in March
@@austinshade7155 they always did to some extent , ff7 was pro environmental anti corpo ,ffx was anti organised religion -2 of best square games. tomb raider was quite feminist for its time even with big naturals- called girls game for that reason. i eman shitting on a starwars game cos a girl got a wolfcut come on haha
@ all of those things are fine. Tomb raider was just a woman exploring. Being anti corp isn't a political stance. But putting a black samurai in a game that takes place in ancient Japan is an issue.
@@austinshade7155 you’ve gotta be completely disingenuous or you’re doing Olympic level mental gymnastics to say environmentalist and anti capitalist sentiments *aren’t* political themes while simultaneously saying the inclusion of Yasuke (a documented historical figure) in a work of historical fiction is somehow a problematic political agenda
It's also refreshing to see numerous comments in a row expressing some variety of hype for this game as opposed to most comment sections for this being a wretched hive of scum and villainy with so many hater speaking authoritatively about how this game is going to bomb and Ubisoft is done after this as well as spouting other objectively incorrect takes that could only come from someone who watched literally anything else besides recent AC Shadows gameplay footage.
They should've either stuck with the Japanese monk, instead of being racist and having him replaced with a black samurai, or had the entire game just about Yasuke. The latter of those two options would've been the preferred option, as having a massive brawler character that's ripping trees up and throwing mountains around is contradictory to what Assassins Creed is. - ultimately Ubisoft need to get used to not owning their own company.
if they put a Dutch in there (cos they were the only ones that did business with japan other than china) i also assume the reactions could be quiet differentOverall it was just an unfortunate timing especially after the netflix'witcher black mages and Disney's ariel movie
Remember AC1? When they removed the crossbow for Historical accuracy? Remember Jerusalem? A Historical city? Remember Pazzis Assassination in AC2 and how he was hanged from a building? The same way he did in History? Remember Robespierre AC Unity? When Arno was in prison and escaped due to it being the same day the French Revolution started(Storming of Bastille)?? Remember all those databases to show you the Historical Richness of each location and its culture? Remember Discovery Tour? Remember them bringing the best Historians to create the most accurate depiction of Ptolemaic Egypt?? Remember people loving AC3 cause they got to learn their American history in a fun way?? You clearly are, just like the people you are accusing, following a vocal trend and definitely not an AC Fan. No hard feelings but seriously know what you are speaking about.
They always been trying to get history as close as it was you clown like this person said under your comment But hi you ok with disrespecting Japanese ppl history If they ppl your game about hate it and say it’s wrong and disrespecting You listen to them
If the game is supposed to be in Japan, the people shouldn’t look they are from China. Simple research would be to watch some alone Wolf and Cub to get the actual look and style of Japan.
I really hope they add more flipping animations. I've seen 2 so far and they're done way too much and I hope they find a way to let us turn off the B&W thing, it would get old real fast
The hate for AC shadows I never fully understood, I always thought the game looked at least decent. Glad to see a lot of more ppl are starting to come around to that pov. Side note: Still disappointed they never added the cape to the Spartan hero outfit in AC odyssey or the armor that Kassandra wears in Valhalla.
Very interested in playing this! My only reservation is that there are SO many games coming up this year that I also want to play, and I’m someone who takes their time playing through games. But love the parkour and other abilities with the character Naoe, a huge plus for me.
For me it's the exact opposite, there aren't a lot of games releasing for me this year and that's why I can't wait for Assassin's Creed Shadows. May I ask what games you're looking forward to? 😊
I’m sorry but as limited as Yasuke is I doubt anyone is going to be spending much time playing him, I was honestly surprised on how dirty they did him like what was the point of putting him in the game, exaggerating his story, and not making him a blend of a samurai assassin? Would’ve been smarter to go the route of Syndicate bc even tho Jacob was the brawler he could still assassin creed stuff like parkour, sneak, and climb, while Evie had all that with slightly more stealthier options.
Locking achievements behind not using guided mode is such a poor choice. Literally every AC game with it before Shadows lets you use it with no penalty.
I play videogames for over 25 years and this is the most undecisive I've ever been on purchasing one or not. Nothing ever came close like Shadows. I gotta give Ubisoft props for that alone 😂
I really hope naoe gets shao jun's legacy outfit since jun was the mentor of the founder of japanese brotherhood. This happened with eivor where she/he got master rayhan's outfit after completing the roshan's dlc.
I miss the old Assassin's Creed. Why can't we get the old mechanics back? That may be able to help Assassin's Creed. And I really wish they would bring back the old button layout, because I don't like having to use R1 and R2 (RT and RB) any more
Everyone loves the old parkour but all I remember is raging. I literally just replayed Brotherhood and there were so many times the parkour was clunky. I remember being in a tomb and trying to shift to a pole and even though I did it right, it took me multiple tries because he wouldn't do it
@oppressor5599 I remember vividly when you play as a Desmond in the end in the church you have to do a wall jump to a pole and even though I put in the right inputs, he still jumped randomly. It took me at least 10 times to do it.
If we would get Legacy outfits then I would like only for Naoe to have them. I'd like both Amunet outfits, Kassandra’s, Aveline’s, Elise’s, Evie’s, Eivor’s, Claudia Auditore’s from brotherhood initiation and of course the one from Shao Jun.
From all I learnt from videos.... included your videos and other youtubers.....Yasuke really did not need to be in the game and I think they added him because they knew they would be compared to Ghost Of Tsushima and wanted to have a Samurai character....but still really excited for the game.
Not only did he not need to be in the game but all the negative attention this game is getting is because of that character, really dumb move on ubisoft cause this game looks really good with Naoe.
Adding yasuke makes the comparison more easier. Naoe feels more shinobi than Jin. Jin was just a Ronin beginning to adapt ninja ways. Removing yasuke would benefit because he plays like Jin with his moves
@@Owen-sx4jj 1. He plays nothing like jin, lol. I can tell that just from watching the game. 2. They wanted someone to have the valhalla type playstyle, from eivor and etc, that's why yasuke's in the game
@@SolidDuke77 The thing is Ubisoft decided to make a character that cannot do parkour and cannot do stealth in an Assassin's Creed game........I don't think I will be wrong in saying that people play Assassins Creed to be able to do parkour around the world in different Historical settings. Having a Character that cannot do that is just dumb.
I was a little upset yasuke parkour was limit but I came to accept the game for what it is and still remain excited I’m still gone main him in my first playthrough
So you just accepted features being cut and still gonna pay full price? Even though you had to mentally come to terms with the disappointment of it not being In the game? Wow ok.
Just feel like Ubi waited too long to do Ninjas. Ghost of Tsushima did this all already and it wasn’t puffed up with Ubisofts monetizations attempts. Color me real skeptical.
to hear that there are a possibility of us for having White and Red outfits is a jist of good news for those who want an outfits that has that kinda color scheme that resembles OG AC
This is the first time i wont be pre ordering an AC game. Being forced to play a character who cant parkour, can't stealth, and can't use a grappling hook is a huge red flag for me.
Trash and Excuses from way too many people on this channel holy sheet. Based on ur content it seems like ur grasp of the english language is equivalent to ur grasp of reality
I still really wish a team would be sent back to add NG+ to Valhalla. I want replays to be worth it. I want to advance my character with mastery levels and ingots, not restart a character
Oh god. They’re “working on new game plus mode?” Heard that before. Hope it doesn’t end up like AC Valhalla where they kept promising new game plus and then after over a year just straight up cancelled it…
Pretty sure when it comes to ac shadows there is no good news. I feel like they purposely made noae weak to force the player to use the non assassin yasukae. They need to pump her defense up a bit because I’m sure many are not going to play as yasukae because they want to play as a shinobi
They made naoe weak because it makes no sense for her to be a powerful tank, she's the smallest ac protag, and she's a slim woman against beefy men, what are you smoking Some people will also play yasuke because he's a bad ass samurai and his gameplay combat looks cool. Most people will play with both Plus the "bad news" in this video was that there's no news of legacy outfits, and that the parkour has less depth than mirage, that's it
Imo there should be equal attention or at least make Yasuke a side character who is required for missions where stealth ain't gonna cut it but rather brute force
Maybe adding specific missions for each character like Yasuke deals with war missions or battles similar to Odyssey so that way he doesn’t feel like a useless character
The game acually is starting to look better and better. Is it going to be a 10/10 masterpiece game? Probably not. But it's probably going to be a fun game to play through if you liked the other more RPG-style type of Assassins Creeds like Odessey or Valhalla.
Literally the only bit of trepidation I had about this game was having to faff about following clues. I had jumped to the conclusion that they would include a Guided mode OPTION but thanks for confirming it. This game is already be long enough as is without having to try to figure out where to go and spend money on scouts. Cool for people that want that extra layer of immersion and want the game to last that much longer. But Ive got a vast backlog and other interests that consume time. I don't have the time or desire to "git gud"
It’s so annoying that legacy outfits are never available at launch for these games. I want Connor, Altair, Shao Jun, and all the others😢. I better be able to keep the hood on during combat and cutscenes at the very least🤞🏻
How does the Animus Hub work on PC? Does the Hub recognize any available AC game on my PC or only the games i own on that specific launcher? For Example: If i buy Shadows on Steam, can I access Valhalla on Uplay?
I get why they added the finisher filter it's an interesting stylist choice that goes well with the theme but it comes across as distracting since the previous games had nothing like it, it's like something they would have in tenchu

not expecting it that soon, but it would be awesome.
Thanks for talking about the Parkour Jor! Really cool seeing such a big voice in the community picking up on something the parkour guys have been saying, it really means a lot!
I really hope they add the option to keep the headgear on during cutscenes and conversations…
I think that was in valhalla
@@SliferStreamingi barely remember valhalla but it wasnt an option in mirage
Agreed! That should be a given at this point. I want to look like a traditional assassin during cinematic moments
Imagine if she uses the staff to pole vault for parkour.....
Imagination is cool yes. Reality says otherwise.😂
I don't really care for the legacy outfits as long as we get cool ones for both characters ill be good
Funny that I stumbled upon this game as my feed was blown up with youtubers hating on this game. But fell in love with it watching their videos lol.
The architecture & environments look amazing and the gameplay looks cool. I am more of an FPS gamer but already pre ordered AC shadows.
I can’t wait for the mythological dlc for this game it should be so cool!
i just hope it's clearly isu related like how it worked on origins and odyssey, not 100% mythology like how it was in valhalla.
and what is that? fighting buddha?
@@ChickenMcThiccken more like yokai, oni, that sort of thing.
They need to make a assassins creed game where you can create your own character
Tell me you don’t know how the Animus works without telling me you don’t know how the Animus works.
No the fuck they don't.
They did for mobile back in like 2015 or 2016 I think. Was called Assassin's Creed Identity I do believe.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035 No one gives a damn how the animus works at this point, not even Ubisoft themselves. They stopped caring after AC 3 and made the animus whatever they felt like. This is a dumb argument to make.
Assassin’s Creed Jade will come soon.
Seasons change every 2.5 hours??????? That would mean over 10 years would go by in a 100 hour playthrough!! It should be more like 6 hours to be more realistic
There is so much hate online for Shadows, but the more I see, the more excited I get. I'm so ready for it!
Yeah I don't like DEI also but some anti DEI's are just as extremists if not more
It’s funny how I never even play nor care about AC game, but the drama made me look into the game and actually interested in it. I’m now for sure getting the game. Even if it’s flop, I still can keep playing it since it’s single player game.
@@alexgauthier9485its not even DEI, its just historical characters
Honestly yeah. Granted as a long time fan of the series who owns every collectors edition. I am just gonna be blunt. Besides the DEI garbage and stuff the combat looks very unpolished. But the parkour is pretty gorgeous I must say. Not quite as good as unity but definitely top 5 for the series
It's strange cause a lot of the hate I've been seeing is coming from the fact that it's a buggy mess(with proof to Boot it) and it's misrepresent of the Japanese time period. So I don't know if that's hate, maybe just valid criticisms and frustration🤷
0:18 shi gon make me feel like Donatello im all for it
TMNT is as historically accurate as this game
I dunno abt that this game seems a lot more grounded than other ac games which is good
Tomold when you coming home ? We all miss you , im sorry i treated you that way but I don’t like see people eating dog food , please forgive me
@@phoenixzappa7366good to know you’re a child
That outfit for Naoe with the shoulder cape is really cool, it has Ezio vibes, as well as the one they previously showed for Yasuke in the exploration article. Im also happy about the individual difficulty toggles for combat and stealth. I hope for the combat you can get in depth and do something like normal damage dealt/received but have more aggressive enemies, basically seperate enemy aggression from just raw damage values. I'd also like to know exactly what changes with higher stealth difficulty. Would be cool if they felt waay smarter rather than just spotting you quicker. Things like enemies hearing better and not easily cheesed or reset/shaken off when they are alerted.
Agreed. Higher difficulty to me means greater damage dealt on BOTH sides and smarter ai.
For naoe all I need is a tekko-kagi (wolverine esc ninja claws) but I'd like her to utilize that with her hidden blade. I'm a little disappointed she can't use the naginata but that'd definitely make up for it.
Naginata's probably a bit big for her to wield
7:48 Yes and Ropotopolous in my opinion was being SUPER harsh on PURPOSE to force a change from ubisoft. Imagine if they actually implemented this feature, and followed through with it, Shadows would benefit so much from the delay, and be one of the best AC games in the past few years.
Requiescat in pace, my dear Assassin's. It was good while it lasted but alas everything has to come to an end, even the good Assassin's Creed games!
Excited for AC Shadows. I feel like they’ve put a lot into it and want it to be successful.
A lot of reusing animations from previous ac titles you mean, and no, that is not something that should be tolerated in a "Next Gen Evolution" of the series. This is coming from a AC Purist.
@ doesn’t negate the fact they’re actually putting more effort into the game than previous entries. And if you feel that strongly about the animations, what are you doing to let them know and make your voice heard?
The worst part of the 2 characters is the intentional handicapping of the abilities of both...play as a normal assassin style woman with zero power, or play as a brute that cant do anything but swing an object hard...they literally stripped the whole point of these skills from 1 person to force us to play as 2....stupid tactic
@@averageguysgadgetguy Exactly! This is my main reason for holding out on pre order and the point I've been bringing up. Can't help but wonder what other dumb ideas made it into the game.
Shao Jun, Evie and Aveline’s outfits should be legacy outfits for Naoe. Maybe even Elise’s outfit since Evie was able to wear it in Syndicate
What about yasuke ?
yasuke should have adewale legacy outfit suits for him
I’m not worried about the back side eject problem since roptopulous is pointing it out I’m sure that can be corrected before launch aside from that this parkour looks like it’s improved since mirage so that’s good
Legacy outfits would certainly be nice, especially since the physics on them haven't been great in the previous couple games and these cloth physics look lovely.
Imagine altair's outfit with proper cloth physics. Like in AC1
Depending on who you ask, that isnt bad news anyway
Dont care for legacy outfits
As for parkour, we'll see how it is at launch if it even comes in March
I really just wanna play this game and don't wanna hear any hate comment anymore ...... when did games stop being games
When developers started putting agendas and politics in their games.
@@austinshade7155 they always did to some extent , ff7 was pro environmental anti corpo ,ffx was anti organised religion -2 of best square games. tomb raider was quite feminist for its time even with big naturals- called girls game for that reason. i eman shitting on a starwars game cos a girl got a wolfcut come on haha
@ all of those things are fine. Tomb raider was just a woman exploring. Being anti corp isn't a political stance. But putting a black samurai in a game that takes place in ancient Japan is an issue.
@@austinshade7155 you’ve gotta be completely disingenuous or you’re doing Olympic level mental gymnastics to say environmentalist and anti capitalist sentiments *aren’t* political themes while simultaneously saying the inclusion of Yasuke (a documented historical figure) in a work of historical fiction is somehow a problematic political agenda
It's also refreshing to see numerous comments in a row expressing some variety of hype for this game as opposed to most comment sections for this being a wretched hive of scum and villainy with so many hater speaking authoritatively about how this game is going to bomb and Ubisoft is done after this as well as spouting other objectively incorrect takes that could only come from someone who watched literally anything else besides recent AC Shadows gameplay footage.
Cope and seeth! Keep buying garbage games
They should've either stuck with the Japanese monk, instead of being racist and having him replaced with a black samurai, or had the entire game just about Yasuke. The latter of those two options would've been the preferred option, as having a massive brawler character that's ripping trees up and throwing mountains around is contradictory to what Assassins Creed is. - ultimately Ubisoft need to get used to not owning their own company.
All of a sudden people want historical accuracy in an Assassin's Creed game huh? Thats strange...
if they put a Dutch in there (cos they were the only ones that did business with japan other than china) i also assume the reactions could be quiet differentOverall it was just an unfortunate timing especially after the netflix'witcher black mages and Disney's ariel movie
Remember AC1? When they removed the crossbow for Historical accuracy? Remember Jerusalem? A Historical city? Remember Pazzis Assassination in AC2 and how he was hanged from a building? The same way he did in History? Remember Robespierre AC Unity? When Arno was in prison and escaped due to it being the same day the French Revolution started(Storming of Bastille)?? Remember all those databases to show you the Historical Richness of each location and its culture? Remember Discovery Tour? Remember them bringing the best Historians to create the most accurate depiction of Ptolemaic Egypt?? Remember people loving AC3 cause they got to learn their American history in a fun way?? You clearly are, just like the people you are accusing, following a vocal trend and definitely not an AC Fan. No hard feelings but seriously know what you are speaking about.
They always been trying to get history as close as it was you clown like this person said under your comment
But hi you ok with disrespecting Japanese ppl history
If they ppl your game about hate it and say it’s wrong and disrespecting
You listen to them
If the game is supposed to be in Japan, the people shouldn’t look they are from China. Simple research would be to watch some alone Wolf and Cub to get the actual look and style of Japan.
I really hope they add more flipping animations. I've seen 2 so far and they're done way too much and I hope they find a way to let us turn off the B&W thing, it would get old real fast
The hate for AC shadows I never fully understood, I always thought the game looked at least decent. Glad to see a lot of more ppl are starting to come around to that pov. Side note: Still disappointed they never added the cape to the Spartan hero outfit in AC odyssey or the armor that Kassandra wears in Valhalla.
Can you ask the director to consider adding the feature to show hood and mask in cutscenes?
That black and white screen is gonna bug me. "We are looking into it" means we can turn it off in 6 months maybe.
this game look trash
Yes they have a history of releasing fixes and desired features a bit later than expected.
Man, Naoe's hair look so cool. Great job on the hair physics.
All the hate about Shadows makes me sick
Why?
@LeFilmMatrice101 because it is without reason at this point
Very interested in playing this! My only reservation is that there are SO many games coming up this year that I also want to play, and I’m someone who takes their time playing through games. But love the parkour and other abilities with the character Naoe, a huge plus for me.
For me it's the exact opposite, there aren't a lot of games releasing for me this year and that's why I can't wait for Assassin's Creed Shadows. May I ask what games you're looking forward to? 😊
I’m sorry but as limited as Yasuke is I doubt anyone is going to be spending much time playing him, I was honestly surprised on how dirty they did him like what was the point of putting him in the game, exaggerating his story, and not making him a blend of a samurai assassin? Would’ve been smarter to go the route of Syndicate bc even tho Jacob was the brawler he could still assassin creed stuff like parkour, sneak, and climb, while Evie had all that with slightly more stealthier options.
hes a built-in easy mode for bad players
hes a dei hire
@@Trucking4Jesus🤓
@@zbeach__1400 is that the new 'im coping' emoji? Haha got you all up in your feelings
Hey! Do the physical pre orders also include the dlc?
I love Shadows! Can’t wait!
Its amazing game for sure
2:35 , I feel like that’s something should’ve A. Been already an option, and B. Can’t take that long to make an option to go to normal color
Thanks for the update. Love the channel!
Thanks for watching!
2 more thousand until 1 million Jor, really happy for you bro!
Locking achievements behind not using guided mode is such a poor choice. Literally every AC game with it before Shadows lets you use it with no penalty.
Already preordered it
Always great content. Thx 4 the info
Looks to me jorraptor is being paid for good reviews
He indeed is.
Do we get the expansion only if I preorder on Playstation Store or also in Amazon?
I play videogames for over 25 years and this is the most undecisive I've ever been on purchasing one or not. Nothing ever came close like Shadows. I gotta give Ubisoft props for that alone 😂
I really hope naoe gets shao jun's legacy outfit since jun was the mentor of the founder of japanese brotherhood. This happened with eivor where she/he got master rayhan's outfit after completing the roshan's dlc.
I miss the old Assassin's Creed. Why can't we get the old mechanics back? That may be able to help Assassin's Creed. And I really wish they would bring back the old button layout, because I don't like having to use R1 and R2 (RT and RB) any more
Everyone loves the old parkour but all I remember is raging. I literally just replayed Brotherhood and there were so many times the parkour was clunky. I remember being in a tomb and trying to shift to a pole and even though I did it right, it took me multiple tries because he wouldn't do it
@Agent_3141 The recent parkour is good, I just wish we didn't have to play these games like RPG's
@@Agent_3141really? I didn't have many problems with the parkour. if something didn't work it was my fault
@oppressor5599 I remember vividly when you play as a Desmond in the end in the church you have to do a wall jump to a pole and even though I put in the right inputs, he still jumped randomly. It took me at least 10 times to do it.
@@DragonScales308just play it like assassin's creed, the only real difference is skill points, lol.
If we would get Legacy outfits then I would like only for Naoe to have them. I'd like both Amunet outfits, Kassandra’s, Aveline’s, Elise’s, Evie’s, Eivor’s, Claudia Auditore’s from brotherhood initiation and of course the one from Shao Jun.
From all I learnt from videos.... included your videos and other youtubers.....Yasuke really did not need to be in the game and I think they added him because they knew they would be compared to Ghost Of Tsushima and wanted to have a Samurai character....but still really excited for the game.
Not only did he not need to be in the game but all the negative attention this game is getting is because of that character, really dumb move on ubisoft cause this game looks really good with Naoe.
Adding yasuke makes the comparison more easier. Naoe feels more shinobi than Jin. Jin was just a Ronin beginning to adapt ninja ways. Removing yasuke would benefit because he plays like Jin with his moves
@@Owen-sx4jj 1. He plays nothing like jin, lol. I can tell that just from watching the game. 2. They wanted someone to have the valhalla type playstyle, from eivor and etc, that's why yasuke's in the game
@@SolidDuke77 The thing is Ubisoft decided to make a character that cannot do parkour and cannot do stealth in an Assassin's Creed game........I don't think I will be wrong in saying that people play Assassins Creed to be able to do parkour around the world in different Historical settings. Having a Character that cannot do that is just dumb.
Quick question does armour change appearance when upgraded and do we need to upgrade the horse for thing like more speed or to swim like in Valhalla
Don’t preorder. Unless you like wasting money or you really think you’ll play it for a long time.
We could only preorder 1 version on ps store.? Do you know anything about this. I did not see different versions of preorder.
51 damn days left I am so tired and crying literally in the baby tantrum way of waiting. I want to play this game so bad.
Play GOT or something Japan then Bruh it's really not that much better than we hoped.
I was a little upset yasuke parkour was limit but I came to accept the game for what it is and still remain excited I’m still gone main him in my first playthrough
So you just accepted features being cut and still gonna pay full price? Even though you had to mentally come to terms with the disappointment of it not being In the game? Wow ok.
Just feel like Ubi waited too long to do Ninjas. Ghost of Tsushima did this all already and it wasn’t puffed up with Ubisofts monetizations attempts. Color me real skeptical.
to hear that there are a possibility of us for having White and Red outfits is a jist of good news for those who want an outfits that has that kinda color scheme that resembles OG AC
Honestly this game will hold me out till ghost of yotel, looking forward to it with tempered expectations
I’m looking forward to yotei for the story, but shadows for the gameplay
@sctbn ghost of yotel is gonna be better in every way in my opinion
@@zackistheman1155maybe not stealth and traversal, but combat in yotei is gonna be brilliant
@shaheenziyard5631 I'd argue stealth is more versatile, creative and fun than ac has ever been but it's very personal tastes
@@zackistheman1155I wouldn’t get that hyped I feel like it’ll have the same fight mechanics as got
I hope you get enough rest Joraptor 🙏 you work really hard
Bo Staff looks awesome
Good job with the updates. Don't let the haters sway you for liking what you played. I'am looking forward to this release!
This is the first time i wont be pre ordering an AC game. Being forced to play a character who cant parkour, can't stealth, and can't use a grappling hook is a huge red flag for me.
Lol you expect a dude as tall as Shaq to parkour 😂😂
@DarkFableX I wouldn't expect there to be a black samurai but here we are
@@DarkFableX He expects an Assassin's Creed character to be an assassin. Go figure.
Its reversed for me lol This will be the first time I preorder an AC game
@@reignzgamez1475 yasuke is a REAL historical figure
I don’t really care about the legacy outfits, wearing all the previous outfits of the assassin’s in assassin‘s Creed
Trash and Excuses from way too many people on this channel holy sheet. Based on ur content it seems like ur grasp of the english language is equivalent to ur grasp of reality
It's a paid channel.
@@AverageMojaveMailman yup
I wish they would've considered Japanese inspired versions of previous Assassin's Robes
Please not another delay…I just wanna play
Very low chance they will
@@JorRaptorpersonally, I'm open to another delay for additional polishing and feedback.
I still really wish a team would be sent back to add NG+ to Valhalla. I want replays to be worth it. I want to advance my character with mastery levels and ingots, not restart a character
So excited for this game
Oh god. They’re “working on new game plus mode?” Heard that before. Hope it doesn’t end up like AC Valhalla where they kept promising new game plus and then after over a year just straight up cancelled it…
Pretty sure when it comes to ac shadows there is no good news.
I feel like they purposely made noae weak to force the player to use the non assassin yasukae. They need to pump her defense up a bit because I’m sure many are not going to play as yasukae because they want to play as a shinobi
They made naoe weak because it makes no sense for her to be a powerful tank, she's the smallest ac protag, and she's a slim woman against beefy men, what are you smoking
Some people will also play yasuke because he's a bad ass samurai and his gameplay combat looks cool. Most people will play with both
Plus the "bad news" in this video was that there's no news of legacy outfits, and that the parkour has less depth than mirage, that's it
Imo there should be equal attention or at least make Yasuke a side character who is required for missions where stealth ain't gonna cut it but rather brute force
Maybe adding specific missions for each character like Yasuke deals with war missions or battles similar to Odyssey so that way he doesn’t feel like a useless character
Useless? Lol
I'm hopeful for this game.
The game acually is starting to look better and better. Is it going to be a 10/10 masterpiece game? Probably not. But it's probably going to be a fun game to play through if you liked the other more RPG-style type of Assassins Creeds like Odessey or Valhalla.
Ninja Gaiden 2 Black mogs this game.
Literally the only bit of trepidation I had about this game was having to faff about following clues. I had jumped to the conclusion that they would include a Guided mode OPTION but thanks for confirming it.
This game is already be long enough as is without having to try to figure out where to go and spend money on scouts. Cool for people that want that extra layer of immersion and want the game to last that much longer. But Ive got a vast backlog and other interests that consume time. I don't have the time or desire to "git gud"
It’s so annoying that legacy outfits are never available at launch for these games. I want Connor, Altair, Shao Jun, and all the others😢. I better be able to keep the hood on during combat and cutscenes at the very least🤞🏻
What about Disc? Will i get pre-order bonus?
How does the Animus Hub work on PC? Does the Hub recognize any available AC game on my PC or only the games i own on that specific launcher?
For Example: If i buy Shadows on Steam, can I access Valhalla on Uplay?
I get why they added the finisher filter it's an interesting stylist choice that goes well with the theme but it comes across as distracting since the previous games had nothing like it, it's like something they would have in tenchu
is there any chance we'll be able to play the demo before release ?
Nope. Not happening.
Question though, will it be possible to respec the knowledge points if new weapons will be coming after the game's release?
Probably, u could in valhalla and odyssey
I just wanna enjoy a game of a franchise i love
Why isn’t mirage on gamepass ultimate yet ?
Money
is the game available to play right now or gotta wait tell the actual launch?
You must be joking right? Or trolling😂
0:58 - 1:08 idk why this made me giggle 🤭 but, 😮 wow at the same time.. Jor, you're incredible, but that sounded a little funny and cool all at once😂
