Assassin's Creed Shadows 💮|OT|💮 Play Stealthy for Me |づ ╸ . •́ )メ

I had a 55 inches OLED LG CX for 4 years now and it has been great but since a year ago I started to noticed burn in and it has gotten consistently worse to the point of being very distracting even tho I followed all the protocols to avoid but well it is what it is. I just bought this week a Samsung 65" S85D 4K OLED Smart TV from 2024 which has decent reviews and was on sale. I am still recovering financially from my trip to Japan so this will suffice for now. I am glad that you are happy with the TV, hopefully you dont get burn in man
Is burn in still a thing with OLEDs? Man, this stops me from ever considering one :/
 
Did a 2 for 1 manoeuver by getting Ubisoft+ for a month yesterday. Main reason is this game but meanwhile I installed and started Avatar yesterday . Just a side note here for anyone interested but Avatar has to be the most beautiful open world I have ever played . Recommend you check it out if you just got the + sub too
 
I read somewhere 5 release dates ago this was developed by Odyssey team, and not Valhalla team - any confirmation?
That would be terrific news..
Also - did ACG get a review code?

Just avoid static content and you'll be fine.

I'm on my 3rd OLED (upgrades, not due to anything else) and haven't had experience with burn-in whatsoever. It's the best quality as a TV until MicroLED screens become more affordable for the Consumer.

Wish the PS5 home screen had a screensaver mode. Actually do end up with static screens quite a bit. So I either need to change habits or stick to second tier :messenger_grinning_sweat:
 
Looking forward to it, hopefully y'all can keep the negativity and hot takes to their own threads and just let us talk about the game in here... I have my doubts though...

EDIT: Wow my first gold gift, never thought it would be for Assassin's Creed positivity. Thanks John Marston John Marston I will enjoy my ad-free life for a while!

The Home screen I'm not on that often so I guess I'm lucky there lol.

I believe the screen dims down after a certain period of time. When I watch Neftlix the OLED itself goes into screensaver mode. Can't recall if it does it on the PS5 as well.

I think I'll pay for a month of Ubi+ depending on the reviews. But that won't stop me from voicing my opinions :P

Is that what gold does?? I've gotten it a few times but never saw the difference other than my name being gold. Ad blocker for life

More A/C gameplay from JorRaptor. He said in the description that he will start posting more spoiler free gameplay tomorrow.


LMFAO the intro to that video is potentially the funniest thing I've seen in an AC game

I still haven't played Valhalla. I don't know if I should play it first before buying Shadows, it might be hard to go back if I play Shadows first.

Those are 2 very different animals.
I would suggest just jumping into Shadows.

I enjoyed Valhalla but it's like a neverending game.
My total playtime was 112 hours and about 50 of those last hours were played in small spurts.
 
Game looks kinda interesting, I just honestly can't bring myself to drop $70 on something I know will be $30 in a couple of months, and probably $20 by Black Friday (if not sooner).
 
But but but something I wasn't aware of two seconds ago is Chinese not Japanese but still looks cool. Totally ruins the game for me. Another ubislop flop.

think I'll get it on steam for my 4090 and steam deck

Yup, gold gives you ad free threads on here and you get access to the Pikachu/Treasure reaction emojis. I haven't see what else it does.

Ads are particularly horrid on mobile devices, not so much on desktop though.

Edit: Haha, thanks John Marston John Marston ! Guess good Karma giving out Gold earlier this month came back in return.

Ads, I banish thee.

EviLore EviLore Is there a way to keep this thread clean of the trolling and fake drama? I know that this week the first page will be full of that type of topics. At least this one to keep it game related.

Except for the part where the drama is real because Ubisoft themselves created it to begin with. Please do not attempt to push for an echo chamber. Let the topic organically take shape. If the masses are upset about the game and want to say their piece, dems da breaks. That's why this place is so much better than the rest of the hivemind internet. If the game itself is good, people will discuss that here. You can also use the Ignore feature.

There are like 1000 topics to shit on the game. Pick one and go there. Let the ones that want to enjoy and talk about gameplay to have their place as well.

Too late:

 
there's a difference in coming into the OT to discuss the game you've played, and just coming in to drive-by shitpost like the trolls have already start doing.

Or .. here me out .. we could just leave the OT for people who want to discuss the game itself .. radical idea I know.

There's tons of other 'controversy' threads about the game, some you've also posted in before. Just bump one of those.

I think it'll be fine. The Avowed OT was basically troll/shitpost free.

No, thankfully it was mostly OK. People should get their jollies out in the review etc threads, leave the game OT for the game itself.
 
I think it'll be decent as ubi honestly is hanging in the balance pending what this game does. It looks good overall but I just wish they didn't fucking pull yasuke out of their asses. If they simply made a Japanese character that was cool like Jin to go along with Naoe, it was the easiest layup ever the absolute easiest.
 
As a fan of odyssey I expect this game to be really good by those standards. Plus the delays have let them cook and polish more than most AAA studios get these days.
 
I still haven't played Valhalla. I don't know if I should play it first before buying Shadows, it might be hard to go back if I play Shadows first.
Don't do it, it will burn you out and it's not even a good game, way too bloated.

If you don't wanna buy shadows at launch, play origins or odissey.
