Just finished this - well, as much as I can. In terms of trophies, it really is a buggy piece of gooseberry fool - three of the trophies for the collectibles, such as the play darts in 21 locations, don’t unlock for many people. There are various solutions online, but none of them are guaranteed to work. So, after 41 enjoyable hours, I’m three trophies away from the Platinum with no hope of getting them unless they patch the game. Almost a year from release, that doesn’t sound likely.

Still, it’s saved me the £32 I very nearly spent on the Season Pass.

And, yeah, the voice acting is hilarious. I ended up playing most of the game with a white female hitman, with a very Afro-Caribbean accent who, on most occasions I started the game, ended a phone call with “go bust a nut, you skanky BITCH.” Raised a smile everytime ;)

I also managed to recruit a football hooligan with an accent that wouldn’t have been out of place at a Buckingham Palace garden party…

I decided to walk up to the London Eye, ... It works and I went up in it and took loads of pictures. Best tourism simulation ever.

Wish my image sig would work

There was a patch months ago that implemented clear tracking for those trophies - marking already completed paste-up locations, for example. Last time I played was before that update though, so the drinking and darts collectibles had me cycling through multiple bars more times than necessary.

That tracking is there, but there are still many issues - have a look at the Ubisoft forums for proof.

For example, I did all the darts locations, no trophy. Looked at the online theories on how to get the trophy - these include playing offline, making sure you do it with only one character, finding them in one session, not using the fast travel option and, honestly, doing them with a male character. So I did all that in one go - still no trophy.

Buggy piece of gooseberry fool. But only relevant if you’re a trophy hunter, otherwise it is an enjoyable game, if something of a by-the-numbers Ubisoft open world game.
