Part 4/7:
The most notable change was the removal of stealth requirements across nearly the entire game. This decision attracted widespread criticism because stealth was one of the core mechanics that should have exemplified Ubisoft's expertise, given their successful stealth-based franchises like Assassin's Creed. Instead of fixing the flawed stealth system, Ubisoft chose to eliminate it altogether. Players and reviewers expressed disbelief, calling the move a blatant work-around rather than a genuine fix.
