I've not gone looking for spoilers, so this easter egg came as quite a surprise...

One thing I have noticed since the last update is that quick resume finally seems to be more or less consistently working for myself.

Has anyone else got the bug where the tattoo artist is now completely inaccessible? Apparently it's a common bug after the last update.

I suppose I should be thankful I was wearing hair/facial tats I liked.

I have a bug where my torch doesn't seem to be on fire.
Game ruined, 1/10 :cry: .

I don't know why but I just always love the effect of spider webs being burned in games. Metro games do it really nicely as well :wub: .

This has happened to me a few times. It still emits light, it just has no flames. Should fix on restarting the game.

Tattoos are such an underwhelming cosmetic reward, I don't get the point in any but the face tattoos as you can't see them under your armour anyway. With the face tattoos I have just kept the default (as with the hair style and colour) anyway. Luckily collecting the tattoos pages is actually pretty fun as little parkour challenges.

Also I love the tattoo pig

You make them your armour visible/invisible on the inventory screen while keeping the benefits of wearing it. By default your helmet is invisible.

No I didn't.

It was accessible for me last night. No issue.

The tattoo artist is a woman on my game but I'm playing as female Eivor so maybe it changes.

Tatto artist spoiler: The male tattoo artist dies early on and the woman takes over. If there was a quest for him I surely missed it as I never spoke to him in Ravensthorpe

Yeah that's what happened to me. I built the tattoo shop as one of my later upgrades so IIRC I went into the building as soon as I'd built it and he'd already died. His daughter was grieving in the woods.

Yeah that's the mission I was talking about.

Apparently there's a bug where after Tove takes over she becomes uninteractible. That's happened to me so I haven't been able to change my appearance at all for the last 20 hours of game time.

This is the glitchiest Assassin's Creed in a long time. I had an arrow stuck in my hands for several hours and I had to reload a save because the warehouse quest in London was completely broken. The guy who gives the quest didn't load when I reached the map marker so I solved the puzzle before he appeared. When I came back, he asked me to solve the puzzle I'd already done and refused to move.

Then there are the movable cabinets which refuse to move and you have to throw a dead body at them to unstick them. Considering Ubisoft had two other open world games out late 2020, I don't know why they didn't delay this to do more bugfixing.

I seemingly haven't had the plethora of issues a lot of people have, but the game has started crashing recently. 3 or 4 times over the last 10 hours, whereas the previous 30 went without a single CTD.

It's not perfect that's for sure

Yes it is a tattoo artist (woman) in my settlement and I did the mission ages ago.

I went in and checked to see if I can be able to change my tattoos. It was fine and which version are you playing on?

I'm on PS5.

PC.

Guess I'll just have to wait till the next patch. Ubi are apparently aware of the problem and are "investigating."

Not all the glitches are bad. There's a really easy one you can exploit to get an Isu bow in Northumbria. I tried it last night and it worked.

Grab it before they patch it!

Thanks! I got it, it took quite a few saves and loads, I didn’t think it was going to work for me
