IM PLAYIN discuss the slightly underrated game, Assassin's Creed: Unity.
"I’ll admit when I’m wrong, and now is going to be one of those times. I’m sorry, Ubisoft, but I was wrong about Assassin’s Creed: Unity. I was wrong to say that it was a bad game because of its poor release, or because of the fact that it was riddled with bugs. I was wrong to criticise the story, or the setting, or the fact that you guys made the game at all. Yep, I was just plain wrong. See, I said all of these things to my friends and family without ever actually playing the game, and for that I apologise. As it turns out – and it does hurt a little to say it – I’m really enjoying the game."

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.
I picked this up for $20 (I got Rogue for the same price as well) a while back and just started playing it after having beat Rogue. I must say I have been enjoying it quite a lot actually.
While there are still pop ins from the giant crowds and other bugs I have ran into, it hasn't ruined my experience of the game. It's actually really quite nice to be 'stuck' in a city, instead of sailing around in a boat again.
The visuals are beautiful. The free-run down is not only extremely helpful, but easy to use. The combat seems more challenging and the overall game is great in my opinion (since I don't preorder games (haven't since sometime last year), I didn't have to endure the game before it was patched, thus my overall experience of the game was probably better).
No. Just no. One of the worst games I bought on release. Sure it might be a little better now, but bugs and glitches aside, I thought it was a horrid game with a bad predictable plot, bad pacing, bad "improved" mechanics, bad characters... it was just a mess all around.
The worst AC game ever... Terrible bugs, frame rate and combat overall lead to a very irritating time playing it to the point where i just gave up and sold it (First AC game I've never finished).
