The History of The World According to Assassin's Creed

IGN - Since 2007, approximately 4,500 Assassin's Creed games have launched on console and mobile. One of the most intriguing recurrences is the alternate history that is introduced to players within most games. Using people who really lived throughout history, and staying accurate (mostly) to the actual date of death, we’ve been introduced to villain and hero alike, all having met a tragic demise at the end of a pointed blade, a drop of poison, or some sinister plot.

While our educators try to convince us of one truth, often that someone died of natural causes or some strange ailment, Ubisoft and Assassin’s Creed teaches us that history was more violent than we realize. History is written by the victors, as they say, but if Ezio, Altair, and others would be believed, history is truly written by Assassins.

Honestly I loved the PS4 ACs. I'd love next gen ports of Black Flag, Unity and Syndicate

PoE: Deadfire, Unless you have a or PS5 or an SSD don't bother, loading times are insane. A minute and a half to go into a room to investigate a desk in an inn and then an additional 1 1/2 minutes to leave the room and then load to leave the inn???

And they never fixed it.
