Still early hunting the second boss from the list. Loving my time with it, playing on "balanced" it looks just so damn good at times. Most of the time actually. I stand by the claim it's the best AC ever, but I am biased as I love the setting and ninja vibes. I will admit combat fun but is a mixed bag. I like how chaotic it sometimes gets when you're surrounded and start combing between different enemies, but it does jank out hard when you start mixing in maneuvers on different elevations and such, it's fun but far from SIE tier system polish. Tons of cool mechanics in stealth and as much as I do my best to stay hidden, on hard you get spotted on rooftops and it's much easier just to kill everyone, especially since instakill assassinations come much later in the skill tree. Parry and evade windows are super lenient, I just cleared Osaka castle running around knifing everyone with the tanto on hard, I did die twice but that's with Naoe, Yasuke is apparently 10x stronger. But I'm enjoying the carnage and can't wait to jump over to playing the big guy.
