Please only vote if you played the game! "No, I didn't notice it because I didn't play it" isn't helpful. Thanks!
First of all, I want to clarify I don't want to shit on the game in general. I just can't believe how bad it sounds and I am curious if this is something Ubisoft can do without any bigger problems. I sure hope not, because if they can, they will do it again. And it's a shame, this gigantic project with a lot of production value just falls short on something like this.
Of course, it depends on your speakers/headphones how big of a problem this is, but maybe you do have good ones and just don't notice it.
If you didn't notice it you may think who is this crazy guy, talking crazy stuff. Let me back my point off with this analysis.

The TLDR Version: the Bitrate was bad in the last two AC games, but now they have a variable bitrate that peaks at around 70 kbps. The problem is discussed at the Ubi Forum too and the Support is aware of it. I don't think they will patch it, but there is hope.

Maybe I'm more sensitive than others, maybe my very good sound system is a "problem" in this case, but it really destroyed my enjoyment of the game and I will not play it any further. Luckily I just tried it as a part of the Ubi+ Abo I got for Immortals, so this didn't cost me any money.
