Chris from The Games Cabin writes: "Ubisoft's insistence that we need a new Assassin's Creed game every year has brought a level of stagnation to the popular open-world stealth adventures, but Assassin's Creed: Unity looks to buck the trend by presenting an entirely fresh approach - but does it live up to the hype? Or has the series fallen on its own blade? Read on for the full Assassin's Creed: Unity review."

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.
GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."
Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective
Yeah i would say brotherhood and 4 were the best for me. I have not played the new ones and Unity was my last one. Seems like i made a good choice.
I gave up after Revelations. Just couldn't bring myself to care anymore and I got burned out of the gameplay.
Definitely agree on 2 and Brotherhood though. Great games.
After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.
Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore
It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.
The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).
Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.
Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.
Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.
Good score but What I want to know is how much the reviewer paid for their copy? Oh go on, do tell.
I'll enjoy this assasins creed as long as there are no sailing or at least very few bits.
Pre ordered mine anyways.
Wait what? All the characters have English accents?
Conclusion
Ubisoft set out to re-create the series with Assassin's Creed: Unity and they've managed it with flying colours.
A rich story with an impressive amount of content coupled with some of the best visuals on display thus far make Assassin's Creed: Unity a must buy for any fan of the series, or just the open-world genre in general.
It has its shortcoming, thought they're few and far between, enough so that they're almost negligible.
