Honestly, Assassin’s Creed Shadows was one of the biggest disappointments I’ve had with the series. I’ve played almost every Assassin’s Creed game, and I’ve never felt that a game had fallen this far below the standard I expect from the franchise.
It feels rushed and unfinished in many areas, with too many elements that seem underdeveloped or left halfway. Instead of taking the time to properly polish the game, it feels like Ubisoft was more focused on getting another Assassin’s Creed title out as quickly as possible.
I genuinely think the better choice would have been to delay it for as long as necessary and give the developers the time to properly finish and refine it. At this point, it feels like Ubisoft is trying to squeeze as much as possible out of the franchise, and unfortunately, Shadows is where I noticed that the most.
For me, this is easily the weakest Assassin’s Creed game I’ve played. I’m honestly disappointed, because I really wanted to see the series succeed, but this entry made me feel like it doesn’t even deserve to carry the Assassin’s Creed name.
