I knocked out a good chunk of Black Flag today. I’m aiming to 100% it, so i’ve been cleaning out locations before finishing the main story. I did do sequence 8. The ending mission for this is one of the ones that is most memorable to me along with The Blackbeard one and the Final Mission.
I got this screenshot while i was supposed to be hunting Vane. Instead i took a detour to grab some collectibles to save myself from a second trip.
I also got this Screenshot of a Large Cat while backtracking to an earlier Island to grab all the Collectibles. I tried to leave it be but ended up having to kill it in Self Defense:
I also wanted to talk about the water in this game. It’s like a solid 9/10 for me. I’m not a fan of Tropical things, but the Water is gorgeous in this game. This screenshot shows the really deep blue parts of the Water. Which are my favorites.
Yeah. For me it was tolerable in the old games, because the story ranged from decent to pretty good so it could carry it.
But Valhalla’s story for me just wasn’t interesting so it felt like a Viking themed collectathon rather than Assassin’s creed. It just ended up highlighting my issues with it. All the chests and Animus Fragments are by far the worst ones with how many there are.
The game has become more of a brawler‘s creed, I wish it was more about figuring out how to cleanly assassinate your target instead of leveling up to match the level of and fight a buncha goons…
I hope Shadows won‘t just be a bad Tsushima…
