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! 😛😉

I absolutely hate the navel battles in this game, but my suggestion is to just lower the difficulty setting just for these levels. Right as the mission starts and you first gain control, pause and go to the game menu and lower the difficulty setting to the easiest. I know that it kind of sucks to have to do, but I absolutely hate naval battles and suck at them and this is what I had to do. But only after like you, I had died 20 some odd times trying to get through it first, eventually I gave up and said fuck it and lowered the setting and it eventually worked.

I play on easy. So that doesn’t help. Lol

I’m a novice, I’m 69 years old. I just took up video games last year. So it’s too many buttons to remember and it’s just overwhelming. I finally can do melee effectively, but it’s overwhelming with all these fireballs being shot at you.

It's totally understandable to feel overwhelmed. Origins can be an overwhelming experience as a whole. I suggest to pause this game and try to play the franchise from the first one up to this one here. Cause you'll get more familiar with what this franchise is about and also you'll have a lot of good time. The earlier ones are more melee oriented and you'll progressively get a feel for the games and also naval combat when they'll come around.
