Assassin's Creed Shadows receives a new wave of backlash after a gameplay clip surfaces, but fans come to the game's defense this time.

Syndicate isn't the only AC game that's tried to broaden our combat horizons. Ubisoft has been seeding the concept of a non-assassin Assassin's Creed hero for years now, permitting greater flexibility and choice with each new game.
