One of the best AC games and they did a fantastic job here. Playing on a PS5 Pro and it's a highlight of the system's capabilities

Definitely recommend if you're a fan of the older games, they removed the boring present day sections too

Been itching to replay this game for a couple years now... glad I waited for the remaster. I hear nothing but good things about the work Ubisoft did here.

Mixed reviews on Steam. Complaints about framerate in cinematics and aggressive DLC pressure. Haven't checked it out yet myself. 84 metacritic

Sounds like there was a common issue with a driver being corrupted and it's an easy fix. After that the PC port is supposedly very good and well optimized.

No issues whatsoever in performance here. It's a solid 60 fps, with RT reflections and global illumination.

Visually superb

Yeah seems like the bulk of the Steam angst is the $85 worth of day 1 DLC Ubisoft is trying to sell.

If this is true, I guess I don't understand why. They finally bring back a game many have been asking for. What's wrong with them having optional DLC?

Unless I'm mistaken, it's just outfits n stuff. Not like they put your ship behind a paywall.

Just don't get DLC and enjoy the game?

Doesn't bother me, but people like to ***** and moan about something. I have been playing on PC and it looks great and runs smooth. Never played the original. I got burned out on AC after the third game. Enjoying it so far.

I picked this up because I havent had a playstation since PS2. I havent played assassins creed since maybe the 2nd one, but Im excited for this and have been looking for a good pirate game.

Is there trading in this game?

One of my two favorite AC games along with AC2. But I've played through it numerous times already, including a couple of years ago, and the original still holds up pretty well graphically. I'm not going to spend the time or money just to play through it again with better graphics.

Singapore was the primary dev studio for Resynced, I am pretty sure. Barcelona has always been a support studio AFAIK.

This game is awesome. Never played the first one, but really enjoying the pirate life. Curious to know what loadout everyone is rolling with. I'm using the Persian Scimitars, Captain Drake's Flintlocks, Wooden Eyeball, and Guardian Beast Trinket. The scimitars are great because you get max damage, 4 chained takedowns, and brutes can't deny chain takedowns. I like Drake's pistols paired with the wooden eyeball because I can one shot captains and brutes. And the other trinket so I don't have to worry about health too much since it regenerates on its own outside of combat.
