I don't really care, but it's funny if it makes chuds mad.

One criticism of AC Shadows I do have is that the towns and villages are in fact too authentic and it makes every single location in the game fucking depressing because the period was god damn fucking awful, everyone lived like shit. The only nice places are the villages with rice farms.

And period authenticity in architecture and setting is like the thing they do best in those games.

Yeah, I'm really glad Ghost of Tsushima didn't go for historical accuracy. It's way more fun the way they did it.

They do a great job with that. I wasn't a big fan of Unity, but Paris in that game is one of the most impressive settings ever.
