It's was an interesting take on the iconic hero, I enjoyed playing it.

After reading other players reviews I was kind of nervous of going into this game as I was excepting the worst. Well, it was the opposite for me. I had great experience while playing it.
The thing that I loved the most was the story itself. It was so well done and interesting. I liked how we were with Connor from the very beginning. We saw how his parents met, we saw how his life crumbled when he was a child, how he decided to go after the one who caused his distress and how he become an Assassin. I enjoyed the historical setting that the story took place in. It left me with wanting to know more about that timeline (as probably every AC game, leaves you wanting to get into history more). The ending was kind of paradox. Connor got his revenge, but at what cost? As his effort towards his tribe did not pay off, they still lost their land and had to leave. Also, it was interesting to see Connor and Haytham interactions. At one point I felt like Haytham was making more sense and that Connor was blinded by his youthful naivety. I could go on and on about this game, but all I have to stay is that so far it is my favorite out of the franchise (as I still had not played quite a few of the games).
As for the graphics or other things, I am not picky with it. I liked the view, atmosphere of the game. I always adore more of nature then city setting. The mechanics were good, I enjoyed variety of guns to choose, tough I sticked to bow and an ax for most of the game. Also, it's silly to add, but I love horses so it was amazing for me to be able to ride them. Plus the animal petting, how can you not stop to pet a dog, feed a chicken or a pig? Just these little details made me smile. Lastly, the only thing that I couldn't really get to was the ship mechanics. So the missions involving a ship were my least favorite.
Anyways, it's an wonderful game. Don't focus on all the negative reviews and give it a try.

An interesting take on the iconic super hero.

"I make my own luck."

I adore the atmosphere of this game, sailing around in a ship, listening to sea shanties by your crew. The nature is also very beautiful. Shay Cormac is a strong, sometimes merciful, interesting character with firm beliefs. It was riveting to see how the story goes from a Templar's side, to consider that not anything that is done by the Brotherhood is right.
The only flaw is that the main story is a bit short but nonetheless there is a lot to do, I mean going around and picking up every collectable (it's perfect that they are not hard to find at all).

First of all, I had so much fun while playing it. I liked driving around in carriage, drifting if you could say that, also involving Rooks and creating some chaos on streets was entertaining, their never ending repeating of the same phases was silly. I appreciate the addition of Treasure maps, it was easier to find collectables. The rope launcher made it easier to travel bigger distances more conveniently. Upgraded lock picking was so nice in comparison to Unity. That also goes to longer usage of Eagle vision. The virtual London was amazing.
The idea of changing between two characters was interesting. There as a clear difference between them, as one is devoted to the Brotherhood while the other one has something different on his mind. As both of them had their flaws, I liked Jacob more as he was entertaining to me, while Evie was kind of bland.
The story was interesting but not something extraordinary. Also I feel like there was times when game just expects you to know what to do with no explaining.
WW1 segment was solid addition.

One of the best Telltale games.

It's not perfect it has some flaws but nonetheless it became one of my favorite games after a few hours of playing.
First of all, I liked its style of combat, parkour, stealth. And the option to customize your character was definitely a bonus.
It's a beautiful game, I enjoyed the atmosphere of it. Like going around Paris in a rainy evening.
Of course, there are a lot of side stuff to do besides the main story. And massive amount of collectables to find.
And speaking of the plot, I felt as if everything happened really fast, to me it wasn't a spectacular story but I liked it enough. I feel like Dead Kings dlc was a perfect addition.
Also, AC Unity made me curious to know more about the French Revolution and the historical figures that was mentioned in the game.
It is my second AC game and I know for sure that I will continue on playing this franchise.

The only negative thing I could say, it's really annoying to type in the password into Ubisoft connect every time you start the game.

all time favorite
