Assassin's Creed

turtle1237 · 08-31-2014, 08:24 AM

Big fan of the series.

With the new games coming out which I disagree with the format system of the release,(One game only for the ps3-Xbox1 and the other game only for the ps4 and Xbox360, If you going to release games, put them out on both old and new gen, or JUST the new Gen. That means people that have the ps4, just has to get a ps3 just to play one of the 2 games.

)

Be fan, of course, I may sound like every one else when I say my favorite assassin is Ezio and the best game in the series so far is II.

But I do loved the other games. I do like Edwards. And Black flags, just not as much as Ezio and his 3 games is all.

II and Brotherhood were great, Revelations and III were meh, and Blag Flag was great.

Although at this point I'm kinda done with the series. I feel like I've gotten everything out of it I can, since them mission structure is the same in every game with little changes (tailing missions, killing from a crowd,etc), and the naval battles in IV were good.

I'm not buying any more at this point, unless they make one in Japan or China because I'd love an Asian Assassin's Creed with ninja's and samurai. Other than that Ubisoft is running the series into the ground.

Yeah, I'm a fan of the series, too. Black Flag was probably the best one because of all the sailing.

I'm only gonna get Unity this year. Not gonna bother with Rogue even though I have a 360.

plan on getting Rogue,

I not sure what to do with Unity since I need to upgrade the game system to play it, or I could just pick it up for PC perhaps.

Revelations is underrated imo. Yeah Black Flags is more fun, but Revelation ties up Altair and Ezio's story line pretty nicely, and it was fun. The only thing I really hate was the Desmond mini game of going from point A to B in him recalling his life/past.

The series is tired and needs a break. I loved Black Flag, cause pirates, but outside of that I've been REALLY burnt out on it.

Revelations felt like DLC sold as a full $60 game.

My favorite game series. But I'm the opposite of most people. I HATE the naval missions and pirates don't interest me. I like III the most, think II is overrated. I feel brotherhood was a bit better. IV was garbage to me.

I'm getting Unity. Not interested in Rogue.

Wow that's like the opposite opinion of what everyone likes about Assasin's Creed.

Well, there's no accounting for taste.

*Slade* · 08-31-2014, 11:56 AM

I don't see the appeal of Black Flag. I never felt like an assassin.

Peanut · 08-31-2014, 12:16 PM

Probably because you weren't? By the poin Black Flag came out, you'd been doing the exact same sh*t for the exact same reasons for an ungodly amount of time over the course of several years. I don't understand how anyone could want to play slight variations on the exact same game on a yearly basis, but I guess that's standard practice these days.

*Slade* · 08-31-2014, 12:31 PM

Isn't that every game though?

Peanut · 08-31-2014, 12:48 PM

No, because every game doesn't come out on an annual basis.

*Slade* · 08-31-2014, 01:03 PM

Not that. I mean doing the exact same sh*t just with slight variations. Like Mario or something.

II overrated? Well perhaps a bit, I still enjoy it.

My all time favorite, I suppose I a am bit of the odd ball that enjoy Revelations. But to each there own I guess.

IV was a break though from what the past Assassin's did. From I-to III it was pretty much sneaking around and killing your target like what a Assassin should do.

Lol. This conversation is over.

FoxBoxKid · 08-31-2014, 08:10 PM

Unity looks like what the first game was aiming for gameplay-wise, which is awesome. Probably the game I'm most excited for this fall, followed very closely by Shadow of Mordor and, of course, Super Smash Bros.

*sdp* · 09-01-2014, 11:29 PM

Even though it has plenty of flaws which II fixed my favorite is the first game. It was the first game to really feel "next gen" to me, and that I was doing something interesting in this world, the story felt interesting and my favorite thing about it was the setting..I lost interest after it became an annual series and I realized there were a ton of AC games to play through and I just didn't feel like it. The fact that I didn't like the settings and fan reaction wasn't too positive and the story apparently became a convoluted mess made me just not care.

But I guess the numbers don't lie and Ubisoft will continue to milk it until it runs dry which even though it's still selling really well I don't think it'll last too long. I kind of get the feeling they want Watchdogs to be the replacement. It sold decently, they'll fix most major problems in the sequel and then milk it yearly for the rest of this gen.
