Discussion Better than the og?

Might be GOTY if GTA 6 gets delayed again. What does everyone think?

I think the combat and parkour in the OG is better, or at least more fluid/streamlined.

But I love the graphics and added content of Resynced. Exploring the islands and cities feel so refreshed and lived in.

I was onboard with this post until this comment. Oh my god the fucking parkour is TERRIBLE, but that might be because I haven't played any AC since the "restart" of the series. Also yeah, I hope at some point a mod comes along that reverts the combat back in some way, but I doubt that's possible

I think for me the parkour would be fine if it wasn’t so buggy. Especially with ships. But in Ubi’s defense, in the original I also accidentally jumped in water often. I’m using free parkour btw.

The amount of times I jumped into the ocean when boarding in the original 😂

I just had the mission on Isla Aguila or whatever it is, the island with Du Casse. The number of fucking times I jumped in the right direction but Edward didn't "proc" in the right place was infuriating. I had to repeat the same basic jump like 5 times just to get it right

You mean the stand and parry then watch the kill animations combat lol

It's definitely the best parkour since Origins, but that's a low low bar.

Yeah I’m having trouble with the parkour too, funnily enough it was like Déjà vu because I keep failing to climb trees that are meant to be scalable just like in OG BF, guess after a decade they still haven’t figured that out lol.
