  24. is dynamic with shadows falling on the

  25. character, and the details look pretty

    Segment details0:57–0:58 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_25
  27. So the gameplay runs at a smooth 30 frames

    Segment details0:59–1:03 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_26
  28. per second minimum in most cases, and you

    Segment details1:03–1:07 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_27
  29. can expect the gameplay frame rate and

    Segment details1:07–1:09 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_28
  30. performance to be a lot better than the

    Segment details1:09–1:11 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_29
  31. original Switch version of the game.

    Segment details1:11–1:14 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_30
  32. So we got improved hardware.

    Segment details1:14–1:15 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_31
  33. Now we don't have an improved patch with

    Segment details1:16–1:19 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_32
  34. the game, so we see some combat here.

    Segment details1:19–1:21 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_33
  35. So you can see the combat is, uh, You

    Segment details1:23–1:25 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_34
  36. know, as you would expect from Assassin's

    Segment details1:25–1:27 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_35
  37. Creed game, very stylistic and stylish.

    Segment details1:27–1:30 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_36
  38. And you got some attacks like that, and

    Segment details1:33–1:34 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_37
  39. you got your deadly attack with the axe.

    Segment details1:34–1:37 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_38
  40. So you're mainly going to be fighting

    Segment details1:39–1:40 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_39
  41. against American soldiers and also maybe

    Segment details1:40–1:43 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_40
  42. the Redcoats, the British, who are at the

    Segment details1:43–1:47 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_41
  43. time entangled in a bitter civil war.

    Segment details1:47–1:53 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_42
  44. I don't know if you call it a civil war.

    Segment details1:53–1:54 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_43
  45. I guess it is kind of like a civil war if

    Segment details1:56–1:58 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_44
  46. the Americans started off as like a part

    Segment details1:58–1:59 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_45
  47. of the British colonies and then they

    Segment details1:59–2:01 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_46
  48. rebelled and mutinied.

    Segment details2:02–2:03 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_47
  49. So yeah, the graphics are very nice

    Segment details2:05–2:07 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_48
  50. looking.

    Segment details2:07–2:07 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_49
  51. I have to say, the graphics are pretty

    Segment details2:09–2:10 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_50
  52. good even though there's no updated patch.

    Segment details2:10–2:13 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_51
  53. There's like no improved graphic patch

    Segment details2:13–2:16 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_52
  54. like Tears of the Kingdom had.

    Segment details2:16–2:17 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_53
  55. It's still a pretty good looking game.

    Segment details2:20–2:21 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_54
  56. Looks brighter, looks sharper.

    Segment details2:21–2:23 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_55
  57. In a way, you can still kind of tell it's

    Segment details2:27–2:28 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_56
  58. dated, but it looks okay still,

    Segment details2:28–2:30 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_57
  59. in my opinion.

    Segment details2:33–2:34 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_58
  60. So we're just gonna go through the story

    Segment details2:36–2:38 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_59
  61. and see what the gameplay is like.

    Segment details2:38–2:39 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_60
  62. I don't know.

    Segment details2:42–2:42 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_61
  63. Oh, I desynced because I'm too far away.

    Segment details2:43–2:45 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_62
  64. Whoopsie.

    Segment details2:48–2:49 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_63
  65. Oh, I'm supposed to follow her.

    Segment details2:53–2:54 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_64
  66. Yeah, so we're just going to do some

    Segment details2:55–2:57 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_65
  67. gameplay and I'm going to show you what

    Segment details2:57–2:58 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_66
  68. the performance is like.

    Segment details2:58–2:59 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_67
  69. Let me see what the audio is like as well.

    Segment details3:04–3:06 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_68
  70. Pretty good audio.

    Segment details3:17–3:18 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_69
  71. The speakers on Switch 2 are very nice.

    Segment details3:18–3:21 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_70
  72. So as you can imagine, you can jump on

    Segment details3:24–3:26 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_71
  73. everything.

    Segment details3:26–3:26 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_72
  74. It's actually funny because

    Segment details3:30–3:32 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_73
  75. it reminds me of Assassin's Creed Shadows

    Segment details3:34–3:36 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_74
  76. but without being in Japan.

    Segment details3:36–3:37 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_75
  77. It's literally the same, like the

    Segment details3:37–3:40 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_76
  78. movement, the climbing, the combat, all

    Segment details3:40–3:43 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_77
  79. identical, just with

    Segment details3:43–3:45 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_78
  80. more outdated graphics.

    Segment details3:47–3:48 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_79
  81. The combat is literally the same though.

    Segment details3:50–3:51 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_80
  82. I can't remember the controls.

    Segment details3:54–3:55 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_81
  83. What?

    Segment details3:58–3:58 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_82
  84. Oh, he hit his own guy.

    Segment details3:59–4:00 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_83
  85. Never found Assassin's Creed combat to be

    Segment details4:04–4:07 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_84
  86. any fun, to be honest.

    Segment details4:07–4:08 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_85
  87. It's all just like spamming this, spamming

    Segment details4:09–4:11 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_86
  88. that, maybe do a counterattack.

    Segment details4:11–4:13 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_87
  89. Am I dead or what?

    Segment details4:13–4:14 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_88
  90. Oh, I'm alive.

    Segment details4:18–4:18 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_89
  91. It is very stylized.

    Segment details4:23–4:24 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_90
  92. It looks really good though, I have to

    Segment details4:26–4:28 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_91
  93. say.

    Segment details4:28–4:28 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_92
  94. On the big screen as well.

    Segment details4:30–4:31 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_93
  95. I don't know what the block button is.

    Segment details4:39–4:40 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_94
  96. Okay, here we go again.

    Segment details4:50–4:51 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_95
  97. Ouch.

    Segment details5:03–5:03 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_96
  98. Your health regens, which is nice.

    Segment details5:03–5:04 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_97
  99. It really does play nicely though.

    Segment details5:06–5:07 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_98
  100. If I knew what the block button was,

    Segment details5:16–5:18 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_99
  101. that'd be nice.

    Segment details5:18–5:18 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_100
  102. I think it's— no, that's arrow.

    Segment details5:20–5:23 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_101
  103. Oh, it's A.

    Segment details5:27–5:28 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_102
  104. I

    Segment details5:34–5:34 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_103
  105. think A is counterattack.

    Segment details5:36–5:37 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_104
  106. He's just nutted me.

    Segment details5:41–5:42 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_105
  107. You shoot them in the chest close range

    Segment details5:49–5:52 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_106
  108. with the bow.

    Segment details5:52–5:52 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_107
  109. Not very realistic.

    Segment details5:54–5:55 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_108
  110. Oh, I can pick up the gun.

    Segment details6:21–6:22 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_109
  111. I forgot you could do that.

    Segment details6:23–6:24 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_110
  112. I don't think you can do that in

    Segment details6:26–6:26 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_111
  113. Assassin's Creed Shadow.

    Segment details6:26–6:27 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_112
  114. Can you shoot it as well?

    Segment details6:29–6:30 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_113
  115. Oh yeah, you can.

    Segment details6:34–6:35 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_115
  117. Okay, why is there a timer?

    Segment details6:39–6:40 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_116
  118. 3, 2, 1.

    Segment details6:42–6:45 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_117
  119. Oh, I let the civilians die.

    Segment details6:46–6:47 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_118
  120. I don't even know what I'm doing.

    Segment details6:49–6:50 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_119
  121. Oh God, that's my back sitting like this,

    Segment details6:56–6:58 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_120
  122. but I have to sit behind the camera.

    Segment details6:59–7:01 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_121
  123. Take them up the ass.

    Segment details7:08–7:12 · rev_82f9536ddb00873f2cc86d7b00d8bcfe_122
  124. Okay, I'm getting the hang of it now.
