"Before going into PAX, I knew that Assassin’s Creed: Unity would be a solid title. All the previously released footage looked great and who doesn’t love co-op? Assassin’s Creed: Rogue on the other hand is still trying to win the hearts and minds of the people. The decision to release two AC games this year and the lack of attention Ubisoft gave Rogue during E3 2014 had a lot of people questioning the quality of the game. Now that I had the opportunity to check out Rogue for myself, I can say that it will be a worthy addition to the Assassin’s Creed franchise."

Zero Dawn sold really well so I’m not sure this belongs. The second game released next to a big game again and it hurt it some I forget what it was though, oh yeah Elden Ring .
But a good game is a good game to me I don’t care when they release personally but they do have to think about it when you want to get more people to buy it.
From Xfire: "Enemy AI is a difficult subject to tackle in video games. Some may argue that current tech isn't advanced enough to implement ultra realistic AI. However, in a world where your phone's AI can book appointments for you, can't it spot a hooded figure hiding in a 'crowd' of four people? In fact, the AI in 2006's The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was so smart that the developer had to 'dumb' it down for the final release."
From Xfire: "Blending real-world history with a gripping fantasy story is quite a thrilling concept but with a dozen games released over a period of 13 years, understanding the chronological order of the Assassin’s Creed franchise can be a challenge for anyone. This is further complicated by the fact that Ubisoft decided to leap through the timelines with the release of Assassin’s Creed Origins.
The exact play order of the series can be a heated subject among the core fanbase. Should you play the games in chronological order? Or should you play through the series in order of their release date?"
Cool feature. The anchor point links need to be fixed in the article, but otherwise great stuff. Thank you for posting!
I'm sure we'll see this on PS4 at some point so I'll wait. But this game definitely shouldn't slip under the radar.
Awesome and informative preview. I was skeptical of this game when it was first announced. After hearing about all this, I'll definitely give it a chance now.
So psyched for rogue, customization only your friends can see in unity confirmed that I'm not buying
We don't want your stinking exclusives!
