So, may I recommend actually reading a review instead of just looking at the score for once?
The enemy AI is a little fussy.
The story is decent, but not amazing, and takes a while to get going.
The rendering of historical Japan is astonishingly beautiful, as are the way the seasons change.
The upgrade systems are dreary and repetitive.
Well, as Ive said before,review scores dont matter.
Like, at all.
At TheGamer, for example,we only give perfect scores to games that are generation-defining.
A lot of sites dont do this.
And broadly, review scores are inflated across the industry for a number of reasons.
Without an industry-wide resolution to standardise the way reviews are scored, theres no way to fix this.
Every game is an 80, unless its incredible or awful.
Thats why many sites are moving away from scores altogether.
Criticism would have value in its own right.
Anyway,read our Assassins Creed Shadows review here.
