About
“Shadows is some of the most fun I’ve had with a stealth game in a decade” —PC Gamer
Play as Naoe, a quick-witted shinobi, and use light, sound, and shadows to evade detection. Infiltrate enemy strongholds with many parkour options including the new grappling hook, distract guards with shuriken or smoke bombs, and assassinate your targets with your Hidden Blade. As the samurai Yasuke, use silent bow takedowns or unleash devastating melee combos with your katana or naginata.
Switch between these two heroes to adapt your strategy and experience feudal Japan through two radically different approaches – stealth and strength, shadows and steel.

Buen juego de ninjas y samurais. Mal AC. En general bastante bueno
무난하게 재밌음,
后面重复性任务太多,感觉罐头感太强烈。整体还算可以吧。玩的很累。
AC serisi şaşırtmadı, atmosfere kandım; parama Ubisoft ninjaları çöktü.

挺好玩的,刺客信条玩成刺客无双
4 hours in Trying to get into it The first couple of hours are really slow. Waiting for it to pick up an get into it. 18 hours in and STILL waiting for it to pick up...... Its not bad, but its really slow how it unfolds the story, I'm finding the combat a bit more difficult too, but I recon it's due to the game pace there literally a hour of no combat then it drops you into a fight, then another break in pace, then it drops you into a back story with a fight BUT with none of the abilities you just got used too. It can feel a bit frustrating, it seems a bit all over the place. I also played AC black flag Resynced first which may have been a mistake. rereview once I get there.
Al principio, en los 2 primeros actos del juego pueden a llegar ser aburridos y con muy poco lore de assasins, pero después de terminar esos dos actos que son unas 30h empieza lo bueno y te acabas emocionando, es como si al principio trabajaran sin ganas y después le dieron el subidón xd. Otra cosa se me bugueo el DLC y no me sale la primera misión del DLC ._. Me va a tocar hablar con ubisoft haber si me lo arreglan de alguna manera. Lo recomiendo pero hay que tener paciencia, yo la tuve por mi novia ._.
