Just got to Chapter 3 Clemens Point
I was about to give up on this game. I just really wasn’t feeling it.
Chapter’s 3 and 4 changed all that shyt.
I’m so glad I stuck with it. There is so much going on in this game that is just amazing to play through.
First of all... any time a mission happens at night, I’m shytting bricks. The environment is just way too eerie and surreal. ESPECIALLY in New Orleans. fukking alligators and snapping turtles and tattooed rednecks bridge blockades and god knows what else might jump out the swamp and get me.
Matter fact... I’m uncomfortable riding around at night period. One time I set up a tent and some hillbillies snuck up on me, put a gun on me, then bounced after letting me know I was on their land.
Oh yeah.. and the KKK.
Any time fog rolls in and my horse starts spazzing I’m like... is a pack of wolves about to come eat my face???
Second... they stuffed SO many gameplay modes into this, and I’m only 50% done! I was bored early because it was all scenic trips and poor pelts and “this is a robbery”. Play long enough though and Arthur is on some Solid Snake/Uncharted/Sherlock Holmes/Prowler shyt. There’s a ton of nuance that you don’t see early.
I hope the Assassin’s Creed team is taking notes. This is how you craft a big open world and make every step feel fresh.
Damn-near can’t stop playing this shyt now.
