Love how they say it "finally figures it out" when we have no idea how the game will actually play.

I heard the Samurai doesn't have a hidden blade. I wonder if they have anything similar in their arsenal, stealth wise or they'd be just a brute strength kind of playstyle.

Wait until this gaming journalist hears about AC Syndicate...

Chocoburger26d ago

The last game in the series I bought, before it went down the crapper with all that equipment upgrade and overpowered enemies until after you've grinded for hours to level up. Ugh.

Haven't played an Assassin's Creed since Revelations, still don't see a reason to go back to the series.

AC III offered some (strange) closure to the initial story arc. I also enjoyed it for the most part.

But Yasuke has feudal Japan hip hop battle music

Can't subvert that

I mean, samurai shamploo has a mostly hip hop soundtrack if I remember right. No opinion on the game itself, just saying there is a real world example of hip-hop samurai entertainment made by the Japanese.

Well has AC ever had non historically accurate music in its Animus sections?

And samurai Champloo doesn't give a greelight to use rap in every japanese setting game. If rap was playing when you encountered youske in Nioh 2 it would be cringe and the people calling it ok for AC shadows would call it racist in Nioh 2.
