In 2007, Assassin’s Creed exploded onto the PS3 and Xbox 360 consoles promising open ended stealth assassinations with a compelling historical narrative. The game initially didn’t fully deliver on all promises made, therefore leaving gamers bitterly disappointed about an experience they had been looking forward to since snippets of the game were first unveiled to the public. Forward seven years and Assassin’s Creed Unity is the next chapter in the long running Assassin’s Creed story arc, released this week on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Running up to its launch, Unity has promised new black box style assassination missions and a bustling recreation of an iconic Paris. Will Unity finally deliver on some promises made nearly a decade ago, or will it simply disappoint like so many other Assassin’s Creed games before it?

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
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.
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.
