Oh gosh where to start....

1. I reinstalled the game due to all the glitches listed below and now I can't load my saves.
It just says: "Installing Install in progress. 00% completed."
MAJOR GAMEBREAKING BUG!
-----
These are some of the bugs I experienced before I uninstalled the game:

2. The Bell won't spawn at all. Even though I have all the clues. This breaks the game because you can't get 100% completion.
3. Man's best friend. Even though I've completed the quest I didn't get the ability. After I found the book of knowledge I got the ability but it's stuck on level 1.
4. Can't fast travel after confronting Basim and returning to Ravensthorpe
5. Tracking Quests is broken. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't.
example: Map never shows where a member of the order is even though I have all the clues.
6. When fishing you can clearly see (male) Eivor holding his arms as if he holds a big fish but the fish is not there.

With as this being said, I'm returning the game tomorrow. I've checked if it's possible and apprently, where I live, if a game is as riddled with bugs as this one is it's OK. The fact that you can't play the game after you reinstalled with backed up save files was the last straw.

@timetraveler81 "A few" bugs is the understatement of the year here.

Seriously, what are you doing Ubisoft?!?!

When did consumers become so complaisant to companies who release broken products? Please tell me in what other industry you're as tolerant with broken products? It's actually people like you who lower the standards. It's not a generational thing as you claim. It's _consumers_ who are slowly but steadily getting sick and tired of years and years of gaming companies releasing broken products. You're just the type of whale they're fishing for. Congratulations.

Since you can't edit more than 10 minutes after posting... sigh...
7. Male Eivor is referred to as "she" by the children during An Althing For The Half Crown

2. I would if I could but since I get the "Installing. Install in progress. 00% completed."-error, I can't. But also I didn't sign up to a "beta-tester". This is not me being rude, this is me being very, very tired of buying broken products. I will give it one last try to reinstall and load my saved games. If that doesn't help, I'm out.
3. Ok. When? The game has been too broken for too long. Again, not me being rude. Just tired of a subpar product that cost me way too much considering.
4. I've tried every workaround suggested. Didn't work. That's why I tried to reinstall it and that's why I hit another brickwall.
5. One example that comes to mind is tracking The Order. Not matter if you have all the clues and stand next to the npc, there's nothing on the map. This glitch worked on and off before the 1.04 patch, then it stopped entierly.
6. Again... Ok. When? Not that it's a major issue but it piles on.
7. See 6.

The problem, as I see it, is that you shouldn't have rushed to release such a broken game. You know this. Your customers know this. Look at where we are. Your staff don't have to time adress issues in time (due to Covid and such, you're even more limited), the updates sometimes fixes certain issues but also causes new (sometimes gamebreaking) glitches. It's no wonder you can't keep up. If I would've sold broken items to so many customers I would've never ever been welcome in my line of work again. That's something to consider. I hope you take this as constructive critcism.

Same issue here. I'm so sick and tired of payment so much money for broken games.

@digger_973 That's the thing though. As a consumer they're really disrespectful to their customers. I didn't purchased an expensive product just to wait for them to fix it sometime, maybe in the far near future.

Honestly Ubisoft, do you even care about your customers?
There are still bugs that have been reported since NOVEMBER!
DO YOU OFFER ANY REFUNDS AT THIS POINT!?!
I'm so sick and tired of this business practice.

@tha_kev I've given up. I was hoping that the latest patch would've fixed it but nooo. I will never ever be a first day buyer again and I'll never recommend a ubisoft game unless it's older and fixed.

@snakeeater49910 I think you're missing the point.

When did consumers become so complaisant to companies who release broken products? Please tell me in what other industry you're as tolerant with broken products?

It's _consumers_ who are slowly but steadily getting sick and tired of years and years of gaming companies releasing broken products. You're just the type of whale they're fishing for.

@ubiexcellent Any news? Didn't work after recent update on PS4. Asking because it would nice to, you know, complete the game. Since I paid for it I think is not a huge thing to ask.

@digger_973 That's the thing though. As a consumer they're really disrespectful to their customers. I didn't purchased an expensive product just to wait for them to fix it sometime, maybe in the far near future.

@elicit85 It's time for customers to stop being firstday buyers and stop listening to shill reviewers. Waiting for 6 months to a year won't hurt you. I know I will after this bad experience. I'd gladly pay for a game that works. But expecting a customer to buy a product at full price and then wait (probably months) for them to fix it? Nuh-uh.
