Give her one reason to sue you.

Uhhhhh... Assassin’s Creed Unity?

This kind of hit me 30 hours in: this game would be really great if they condensed the world into DX-style zones rather than the big open world GTA V / Assassins Creed objective fest it is. How much time did I drive around versus actually doing things?
