Neue Rezensionen von Icarus

This is excellent game. For me it is the best AC title together with Odyssey. However, actual situation is critical as this game is unplayable due to the failures on microsoft and/or ubisoft sides. I must keep negative feedback until these actual problems are solved. As soon as these problems are solved, I will re-evaluate my review.

Feedback from players and customers of ubisoft and microsoft are important as these customers are the ones who pay for the games and make money for ubisoft and microsoft. It is unacceptable that non-functional release/update of OS or game is deployed. I truly believe that microsoft and ubisoft are working on these actual problems and will fix them as soon as possible.

This is how a great game falls to the bottom because of failures that should never appear.

Liked:
- Graphics
- Environment
- Stories (main + side)
- Beautiful and very accurate Paris
- Main protagonist
- A lot of RPG aspects
- Multiplayer system
- Combat system
- Great stealth system and lots of opportunities to be real assassin within many missions
- Parkour system

Disliked:
- Problems with multiplayer (connection issues)
- Sometimes, problems with slow response during combats and during parkour
- Versailles available only during specific missions and not available for free run exploration
- Absence of public transport (e.g. horses, chariots, boats, ...)


In general, AC Unity is GREAT game. I recommend it to play. I don't know how release version looked. But, I believe, when it was full of bugs, then this title would have been considered to be the worst title in the series. Actually, the game bugs are corrected and I don't see any technical issues. However, Ubisoft shall focus on game quality at its release state, and not on management needs and deadlines. Games are developed for players, not for management.

Liked:
- Graphics
- Environment
- Some stories (especially "The Siege Of Paris", crossover story with "Odyssey")
- Some places (Lunden, Jorvik, Wincestre, Paris - but see below)
- Main protagonist
- Enormously huge RPG

Disliked:
- Boring and repetitive main story.
- Some messy features (shops, skill tree, ability tree)
- Lack of double hidden blade
- Ship just as public transport

Hated:
- Permanent crashing into Windows - It is hard to be polite here - why is it not fixed yet after so many years after release!
- Unavailable Paris - I loved "The Siege Of Paris" (story, map, Paris) until I found out that I cannot get inside Paris island - really? Ubisoft disappointed me very much.

In general, AC Valhalla is a good game. I recommend it to play. However, it is not the best one in the series.

The best part of Ezio series, probbably the best AC game ever.

The city of Rome is excellent. Maybe, Forum Romanum and sorounding area could have been more precise - I am missing "Temple of Venus and Roma" very much.

In general, story, graphics, design, architecture, all are great.
