I’ll fully read the review later on, but I skimmed through it to see if japanese VO is mentioned. I didn’t see it.
There is no option for that?
There is.

from the review: There is a canon voice mode as well, featuring the correct languages for each character, mainly Japanese and Portuguese, as needed. I used this for most of my playthrough, opting for English when my eyes grew tired from reading subtitles. The canon voice acting is excellent, while the English voice acting has a generally high level with the occasional off-performance.

Great review!
I look forward to playing it… later.
Same here, well I’m on the Odyssey DLC so a bit ahead. Still have those and Valhalla+DLC and Mirage waiting in the backlog…

Valhalla is fucking massive. Mirage isn’t bad though. It’s like a 40-50 hour game to do everything. It’s definitely bite sized.

Well damn…
In my case, I got Origins and Oddysey, barely played both. I gave up on Valhalla, felt like that was going nowhere.
And now my brother wants to get Ubi+ for a month, so 9 euros per person for Shadows. This way I’m never gonna get to ACO and ACO. Lol.

As a Watcher of this thread - it mostly reads like a bunch of people who couldn’t slog through many Assassin Creed’s - common with this series. Wait until the game is $15 in 9 months and not finish this one either is my advice
Nah, I just have a huge backlog and play (most) things in order. I have played every Assassin’s Creed and all dlc-content up until Odyssey DLC.
Love these games!

For me it’s more like…after Witcher 3 and the first expansion I got a bad case of open world fatigue. Then lots of stuff happened and I just never got around to play both ACO games. Waited an eternity for AC to go to Japan and now they do. And I kinda really want to check it out, at the same time, there’s no rush.
But my brother really wants to check it out, we share games, so meh, I’ll pay the 9 bucks for +.

Oh shit…didn’t even notice that you completed Origins and the two expansions. How did you like the game? Origins is my second favorite AC game after Black Flag.Where does is rank for you Mort?
I’ve played and completed nearly all of them - I didn’t fully complete Valhalla as not too big a fan of the Vikings being the “good guys” despite pillaging and murdering my ancestors (Celt and Saxon) lol, not helped by being a massive Last Kingdom fan.
And I’m still making my way through Mirage but I’ll park it for Shadows.
In terms of favourites, it has to be Odyssey and Syndicate for me - clearly a massive Ubi Quebec / Montreal fan as I loved Immortals Fenyx Rising too and 100%'d both those games.
Did like Black Flag, Unity, Origins and the originals too - not really ever disliked one apart from wishing they based Valhalla on the Last Kingdom rather than the other side lol.
I do struggle to go back to the old games though - I played the Jack the Ripper DLC on Syndicate after Origins and Odyssey, and the controller scheme and parkour just feels a bit clunky and old now despite feeling brilliant at the time…

I think 1, 2, and Brotherhood will probably always be my favorites. Altair and Ezio are great and the mystery was still fresh in those early games in a way that I don’t think the series can get back to without some kind of reboot.
Black Flag was a miss for me because I just don’t like the sailing and naval battle aspect.
I do generally enjoy the RPG era with Odyssey probably being my favorite because Kassandra is so enjoyable.
