“Here’s the kind of fool I am: with a pretty commitment-free, relaxing-at-home weekend last Saturday and Sunday, I tucked in for hours of uninterrupted gaming by playing… Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Not emulating some incredible classic game, or starting Blue Prince, or anything else I could’ve been playing. I just keep waiting for Shadows to get good, but honestly I’m pretty sure I’m mostly playing it because I bought a new graphics card a month or so ago and it looks really pretty. The world is stunning! And also kind of stunningly empty, full of people to kill but barely any story attached to the killing. Ubisoft should’ve made this world a quarter the size and four times denser in actual meaningful questing.”
