Finished AC Mirage. I enjoyed the throwback feel to the original game and the focus on stealth. That said, I think that was my alltime least favourite AC game.

Combat felt like it was a game from 20 years ago, so clunky. And the city didn't entice me to explore it, at least after the first several hours. There didn't seem to be many unique areas to check out, it all kind of felt the same. I did like having to eliminate a sniper first before using your eagle though, hope they keep that going forward. Actually having to scout a fortress for openings (as opposed to being able to scale it anywhere like in recent AC games) was a welcome return too.

It was fine, I could just tell it was a glorified Valhalla DLC, it didn't feel like a full new title (and thus shouldn't have cost what it did - one of my issues with it). From my perspective, they haven't released a full AC title since Valhalla in 2020. Which is a surprisingly long time for Ubisoft.
