I think it came out the same time as Ghost of Tsushima and I thought it couldn’t be nearly as good. This is the first Assassin’s that I’ll be disappointed when it’s over since Ezio. Yes, the main character’s acting is bad in english, but the game is so fun that I started ignoring her ways.

Because all critical discussion of the game was buried under anti-woke bullshit from chuds whining about the black dude in the game and the main protag being a woman.
Also it’s an Ubisoft game.
