My first play through on normal difficultly absolute let down ubisoft I have followed all the assassins creeds this by far is the worst.
1.Biggest problem : The game automatically enters you into story quests if your running close.
2. If your new to the game you'll easily be frustrated going from one quest to another as there's whole load of detail to remember and can mess with the players mind if you have bunch of quests open or half done.
3. Saving the game is so important I noticed few times I was repeating few locations from one day to the next turns out the game so big when you turn off the console go back you'll find you need to re-do them sometimes.
4.I have such a migraine off the music when on map or even sailing out at sea by week 3 I found it so bad it makes me cringe when your travelling far in game and not in action its the worst
5.charactor upgrades as you play through you have options to upgrade weapons and armour depending on your progression gold cards are for stronger gear and its a shame its a constant struggle to maintain the fav suits or preferred weapons
6. They have a boss level fight with kalydonian boar I understand its hard but this is going too far it somons other small boars regenerates health and soon as the AI knows your arrows pointed its faster than flash him self.
7. If your an adventurer you will be in tombs and caves getting every last penny to metal, ubisoft got so sloppy they left lootables in the walls that you cannot accesses this happens all throughout the map.
8. Leonidass spear you will get the opportunity to upgrade using fragments my first time discovering this I already had 4 off the get go but its not clear that you can only upgrade the spear when you level up every ten steps or from what level you are when starting.
9.for anyone who's played Origens will know head shots dealt a much heavier blow, odyssey however you must have ability or engravings to endure the death of your target ( no one in real life would survive any fully pulled bow straight to the Eye) fair enough with helmets but face shots should insta kill.
10. I couldn't help but notice that the game forces you to make decisions I think there should be a skip for any uncomfortable dialogue not every player will want to watch or listen but just want to crack on with the game or if their just dragging out you cannot skip.
This game has a massive map great scenory and fantastic fighting movement don't get me wrong this game is incredible but for any ubisoft fans this is not your best game from what yous have been producing origins in my opinion was better.
