@logibear0111 I don't think they addressed the missing fish in this update for some reason.

Also, it would be super great if I could load into my game, and not have the drunk effect active.

@UbiExcellent An update to my last post - I disabled my internet connection on my PS5 then rebooted the game - those 3 new skills came back, so it's obviously a bug related to the Yule event/update. I'm going to have to play this game offline until Yule ends. With so many bugs related to that update, why on earth would they have allowed it to be released to the public? We're talking near-game-breaking issues here.

@asgardian02

"that seems super boring."

To you, maybe. I prefer to get the tedium out of the way so that I may, as you say, "relax" and enjoy the story. If I left all of the collecting/tedium after the story's done, I'd lose interest awful quick. Leaving the story until the end is enough of a carrot to keep me going.

It's how I approach all open/semi-open world games.

@iii_hammer_iii

"I have been playing for about 60 hrs and I am yet to hear anyone refer to my male character as "she"."

There's actually a bug in the game: https://discussions.ubisoft.com/topic/91424/general-bug-with-she-and-no-he? I played as female Eivor, and got referred to as "he" multiple times. So the whining about that from the OP is only because they failed to understand that it's a bug and not Ubisoft forcing any sort of "agenda" on anyone.

@thecosmicbob Open the wheel by holding down on the d-pad, and select the cloak. That's how I got rid of it.

@asgardian02 All depends on how you play the game. How I generally play these types of games: get all of the boring stuff out of the way, so I can focus on/enjoy the main story. I had opened all of the chests that weren't quest-locked before really even doing the first story-related Alliance arc, so a lot of my equipment was maxed out early on, so I could have really done them in any order I wanted.

@asgardian02 I only ever noticed 10 or 50XP gained from defeated enemies, so I don't think they changed anything?

Just booted the game - now says the correct amount of arrows.

"I was kind of disappointed to find the taming animals and no fall damage features from Odyssey were not in this game."

AFAIK, you're a demi-god in Odyssey, hence the no fall damage?

Taming animals wasn't really useful anyway.

@acezim57 I believe there's a point where he goes off somewhere, but I can't recall.

@asgardian02 I've levelled up 66 times since reaching max level, so it's still not that hard to gain levels.

@summortuus The skills did not show up for me right away, it wasn't until I booted the game the next day where they re-appeared.

@guest-pa5pvvuk It worked for me *shrugs* - it also seemed to resolve the issue of the three extra skills disappearing. They've all come back for me.

@spawnq as soon as the sail drops, raise it up again. Once or twice when I was working on that specific trophy to destroy 5 boats in 2 minutes, my boat just kept pushing the other until until it cracked, and I had to re-raise the sail a bunch.

@courtesycobra33 can you be more specific?

@asgardian02 I only ever noticed 10 or 50XP gained from defeated enemies, so I don't think they changed anything?

@hroozenbeek thankfully, I had no issues.

@asgardian02 Yeah, I'm on the last item right now. I read about that, but didn't know whether it was some item you got or what.

@gothicwidow72 when you delete and re-install, I don't think you remove any of the DLC add-ons you would have received with the ultimate edition. I've deleted/re-installed and did not have to re-download any of the extra stuff on PS5.

But verify that before deleting anything, obviously.
