I had a blast infiltrating castles, bounding over rooftops, and disassembling guard patrols one stab at a time as Naoe. The dynamic lighting is just as cool as I hoped—that Splinter Cell visibility meter adds welcome complexity and expression to sneaking. At night, compounds aren't just obstacle courses of hay bales and waist-high cover, but projections of hazardous light and malleable shadows charting a safe path to my goals. My gut says Shadows is the strongest stealth package in 18 years of Assassin's Creed. But a bigger surprise was how much fun I also had charging barricaded doors, cleaving through unarmored ronin, and shrugging off glancing blows as Shadows' historical Black samurai.
