I was expecting answers. I was expecting to find out how Basim becomes the Loki re-incarnation we met in Valhalla but instead we find out his best friend was actually just a hallucination. It felt a bit lacklustre but it doesn't take away from the rest of the story.

The gameplay was nice. There was a heavy focus on stealth which is what The Assassins are all about - melee combat was a little bit weak but that's understandable considering the game wants you to be stealth - like a mirage.

Yes there was nothing grand and the stakes never really felt that big but the game wanted to feel like a classic assassin's creed game. It felt like a bog standard day in the life of an assassin: Kill this guy to find out who they work for and then find out some weird sci-fi stuff at the end.
