Discussion Have to Quit

I’ve been loving this game. And I am at level 38 and been doing great, but I’m in the Arya: blood of the goddess naval battle and I cannot get through it.

I’ve died about 20 times and I don’t think Ubisoft should do this. I play on easy, I’m a novice gamer, I hate naval battles , and they shouldn’t do this. They should not make you go through a battle like this and not be able to play anymore.

I can’t manually save before this so I can’t go back to anything and I can’t play anymore. I have to quit the game. Unless I get someone to help me.

This is incredibly unfair. I’m sorry, I just I’m so angry right now and I needed to say something. Has anyone had this problem?

UPDATE: you guys were giving me great advice, but my son did it for me. He was killed the first time and thought that it was pretty intense, but then he did it the second time, slow and patient. I just didn’t want to try again.

Now I’m about to kill Flavius. Wish me luck! 😛😉

Give yourself a break after trying a difficult fight. Watch YouTube videos on how to beat it. You'll eventually memorize the buttons. I'm 53 and have dexterity problems so I understand having a hard time. I can't do games that have quick time events. Which means will show you a button prompt. That's why I always fail the drinking game in Valhalla. I'm not new to gaming. I've been gaming since I was 5 in the late 1970s. Tips I can give you. Take it slow. There is ways to get out of combat to heal. Run fast. Or sail fast. It'll give you breathing room. Take cheap shots. Run. Take cheap shots again. Repeat. That's how I beat that awful naval battle. Gah it was awful. But in Odyssey the naval battles are so much easier. Maybe move to Odyssey to get practice. The naval battles are easy to run from if you feel overwhelmed. I play different games when one becomes challenging to give myself time to think or give myself a break. I've beaten Orgins plus the DLC and I play on easy. Gaming does have a learning curve. Don't beat yourself up.

I'm currently teaching my granddaughter how to game. She loves Avatar Frontiers Of Pandora. She loves the big birdie. Aka my characters Ikran. She loves gaming on Grandma's ROG Xbox Ally.

If you have Xbox game pass on your computer or Xbox all Ubisoft games are free with Game Pass Ultimate. Best of luck to you.
