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.
“Assassin’s Creed Shadows creates one of the best versions of the open-world style.” —IGN

好玩呀
The gameplay is fairly entertaining but the story, the dialogue the facial animation is disjointed, and incedibly bad.... I refunded the game and I am still unsure if that was the right decision but when I played it I struggled to enjoy it when ever there was a cut scene or dialogue...
아쉬운점은 있지만 그래도 나름 재밌었음
sehr gutes Spiel kann ich nur empfehlen
어쌔신크리드 시리즈를 오딧세이 발할라 섀도우 3개만 해봤는데 재미는 있지만 시스템은 셋중에 제일 맘에 안드네요... 캐릭터 교체가 일단 개인게임취향에 안 맞고, 파쿠르 시스템이 위 3개 시리즈 중에서 제일 이상하게 작동하는 기분입니다. 엄청 어리버리 타서 짜증이 치밀어 오를때도 있습니다. 캐릭터 교체와 파쿠르 시스템을 빼고는 다 마음에 들고 잼있습니다.
在不需要动脑子方面很爽,玩就行了
this game was great, yasuke got a ton of character development near the end of the game and it was great
i have played this game for almost 8 hours and its just such a amazing game
挺好玩的
弥助你和隔壁2077李德完全一类人
