Pretty dumb when you have to run around a building looking for that one ledge that you can grab onto, passing ten other ledges that look exactly the same in doing so.
Climbing is fun in these games, and pushing up seems logical, but I'm a gamer who prefers to be able to jump whenever I want with a jump button, duck/sneak whenever I want with R3 or L3, and balance on ledges by keeping the character from leaning too far to either side. Otherwise I can close my eyes, push up, and get through a whole map of obstacles without any issue, which IMO, is a game doing all the work as the AC games often do for the player. By this point, Ubisoft should've offered an option for manual inputs, but it never happened.

I remember first playing AC, and being bored by the game taking away all of the skill required to traverse an obstacle course environment.

On the PS Store, I saw recently AC Valhalla at 59.99 again. For the disc, that's more consistent in eventual price drops though.
