Remember that cool screen that you saw at the beginning of the latest Assassin’s Creed game? This is what all of that stuff meant.

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.
And I thought Ubisoft was just making this stuff up as it went.
I was kind of expecting a dull read, but that was pretty entertaining, if nothing else for the captions of each photo. Decent speculation that showed the author did at least a little research instead of jumping in to "this is what it will be, for sure, no doubt".
I'd love to see a majority of these come to fruition - but what AC needs more than all these additional titles, is a good bit of time off to realign. Unity was decent (I didn't have more than one glitch, and consider myself lucky) but Rogue felt like it was a carbon copy of Black Flag(not completely a bad thing though), and didn't expand in meaningful ways. Overall the series is feeling stale, and needs real innovation.
I swear I've seen the Jazz Age Junkies Assassin before somewhere. It looks like a drawing someone did of a futuristic Assassin they wanted to see who I think had a cane sword too. it was either on deviantart, or during that time when a few different Assassin designs were leaked out before Black Flag.
Fascinating.
