*Review for the full game*

Holy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥ this game hit me hard. The story is masterfully written and although there isn't much choice, as some reviewers are complaining. There are two main paths you can go down in the end, although your choices do affect people, relationships, and things throughout the story. It feels like watching a movie, but you can actually affect it like a lucid dream.

The textures and graphics, contrary to what people were saying, are absolutely perfect. It may not be like GTA V, but it is a whole different art style and it really fits well with the whole theme and tone of the game. I'd recommend playing with a controller, if you can.

One of the most emotionally devastating games I've ever played for sure. Still can not get over that ending.
8/10 Would most definitely recommend.

Hands down one of my absolute favourite games of all time. Fond memories of watching Scott Manley streams for 6 hours are tied to this game for me. The learning curve may be a bit much for some but there are plenty of resources available on Youtube and the wiki, and you learn actual Physics in the process, although it is entirely optional to apply advanced orbital mechanics in game, it can be a fun exercise. Some basic trigo should do the trick for most rendezevouses and such, and if that's too much, there is always the good old eyeballing it! Would definitely recommend this game to anyone with some interest in Physics and Astronomy.

Instantly one of my favourite games. Wonderful story, so well written that I could not dare skip the cutscenes. Gameplay is very good and minimal bugs are there which I have yet encountered. 8/10 would definitely recommend.

It may have been a buggy mess when it was launched, but not anymore after Ubi's bug fixes:
- Smooth Movements, Parkour
- Intuitive, Enjoyable combat
- Story you might give a ♥♥♥♥ about (not very common these days with Ubi)
- AMAZING setting: explore Paris in different time periods
- Somewhat non repetitive missions
Overall I'd say go for it, despite a few bugs remaining here and there, it is still a highly underrated game.

Probably the best single player campaign I have ever played, very emotional when it finally ends. SP is verry good but online mode has its issues mainly connectivity. There is also not much to do after you finish the game with the kind of repetitive Strangers & Freaks missions.
Highly recommended 9/10.
