I think I'm seriously done with Assassin's Creed. They've taken a lot of the focus off of the present day stuff, which has always been very intriguing and enjoyable to me. The whole reason for playing the memories and the past is to find artifacts to help in the present day against the Templars.


***POSSIBLE BLACK FLAG SPOILERS***




I was also put off by Black Flag having next to nothing to do with the Assassin's and the Creed. Edward Kenway wasn't even a fucking Assassin. I kept thinking he was going to join, nope, never did.

It was an awesome pirate game, but it really sucked as an Assassin's Creed game.

I agree with Black Flag. I liked that game but they should have renamed it to Pirate Assassin's or someshit, just make it it's own unrelated game.

Based on the trailer and it being in Paris, one would imagine their going back to their roots a bit.

anyone else fucking with this game?

I got it on ps4. First off, beautiful game. The amount of detail, as usual, is amazing. The streets are FILLED with NPC's, which you'd expect with the next gen consoles. Revolutionary Paris is alive and constantly full of little details like dudes walking down the street protesting with a chopped off head on a stick make for those random moments of wow this is dope.

Most importantly, the story line is back to the basics. Assassin's vs The Templars. No pirate, or native American shit, back to the core of what made this series dope.

they also did a good job of making things less repetitive. no longer do you have to re learn how to do basic shit, upgrades are steadily available rather than going through tedious shit to learn how to do stuff we already knew how to do in the last games.

I guess there have been reports of glitches and frame rate drops prior to a couple patches they've released but I've noticed nothing. Although I have yet to do any Co op stuff which I guess a lot of the problems were at. II'm saving all the multiplayer Co op missions for after the game.

Anyways, if your an Assassin's Creed fan, imo this is the best since II and Brotherhood. I've spent hours just exploring, running flawlessly over building tops, unlocking new shit and still have about 50% or more of the main story left, not to mention the hundreds of side missions, assassin's, murder mysteries, etc left to do.

I'll give a final score when I'm finished but as of now I give it a solid 8.5/10. Must have game IF you're a AC fan, which I am.

the endingof the story was weak and kinda hhappened abruptly I thought I still had a lot more of the story to go so because of that I dropped the score a full point. 7.5/10.

If you're on the fence about the game and not a huge fan maybe best to wait till it goes on sale.
