They're all repetitive garbage. The only thing the sequels did was add even more repetitive garbage to bog the player down with and make the games even more easy.
About the only marginally fun one was Black Flag, and that wasn't even meant to be an AssCreed game to begin with.

The games with Ezio in them are generally considered to be the best because everyone fucking loved Ezio as a character
The gameplay itself is the same shit though. The only reason Ezio even got into Soul Calibur V is because he was the only part of the games people actually remembered.

All they really had to do was increase enemy variety and composition, remove at least half of the collectibles, and change it so that armor and weapons can only be changed at hideouts, but even so it is still the most solid AssCreed. It felt like that a lot of the design decisions in the game were trying to balance coop and the single-player, and inadvertently produced something much better than the series deserves.

It's ok anons, I understand. I unironically 100% completed Unity without even trying. I found myself getting so immersed in the world that I would load up the game just to walk around and explore the world. Naturally, I would pick up a chest or artifact not because I was specifically trying to complete the game, but just because it was right there as I was walking by. Eventually I had just gotten everything I guess.
I think Unity is really underrated, and although it has it's flaws, I think it's greatest pro is it's atmosphere (and the co-op which I played a ton of with my friends). Turn the hud and subtitles off, change the audio to French (Asscreed is made by frogs so the French translations are really good), and start wandering through the eerie marshlands or the dark catacombs, or even just walk past a social club, where you'll start to hear the chanting of "Ça Ira" in the evening. Not to mention the Paris stories and the murder mysteries, which teeter just barely on the edge between supernatural and ordinary everyday, in a way that makes them extremely comfy.

Ass creed 1 was only good if you only used the hidden blade and actually did the assassinations stealthy. The side missions or whatever are fucking boring and repetitive but at least they get harder over the game. The optional puzzles were neat though.
Ass creed 2 also had a tonne of boring bullshit in it and RPG elements that really didn't need to be there. Combat was a lot better though using anything other than the hidden blade for assassination kills and fists for everything else is trash tier. Ezio was a faggot and I liked the story between Altair and mujadurkadurkadeen or whatever the fuck his leader was better. It was a really nice story in 1 that should have ended at 1 but went full retard in the later games. That bullshit with adam and eve was neat but really it should have stopped with it just being a little teaser and not the fucking bullshit that happened at the end of 2.

That's not true, there were no experience points to gather or skill trees to unlock, you were just given upgrades over the course of the game's story, which didn't change how you played so much as they gave you some variety to keep the act of slaughtering NPC guards interesting, which in and of itself was quite dull, and said unlocks didn't really succeed in that regard.
>the combat was a lot better
Maybe when compared with the first game, but it still boiled down to "counter then attack for an instant kill" which is still pretty shit.
>hidden blades for assassination
Most of the main story assassination targets' deaths happened during cutscenes, in which Ezio would have conversations with his target, after which he'd often deal the final blow himself, then utter some Italian bullshit. Point being, it doesn't fucking matter what you used, given that you're just going to see the target die in a cutscene anyway.
>fists for combat
Fists were easy mode because you could just disarm your opponent at the press of a button and either use the newly acquired weapon on its now defenseless owner or pummel them to death while they take it like a bitch.

Yeah Ass Creed is pretty redundant precisely because by focusing on combat and "stealth" they basically ended up with a shittier version of the Arkham games.

The plot is pretty fucking weird, I enjoyed the Ezio games a bit too much but I wouldn't recommend buying them. They're extremely repetitive. The plot is literally ancient race of alien human things and a big sun is going to kill them or something so they get a golden apple and make everyone think it wont so it doesn't. Except it does and they all fucking die, then the modern day guy you play as dies as well for some reason.

One part love, one part enslaving talented people desperate to make it in the animation industry, before farming it all out to Korean Starcraft nerds was cost effective.

in titles like Assassin Creed you can basicly judge open world games by how annoying and repetitive the quests are, if you are doing something for good story with reward/loot or just completing a checklist and markers on map
why nothing in say Metro Exodus feels repetitive is because everything is unique one time thing with permanent upgrades, thus i actually enjoy exploring the place

When I first saw the trailer I thought this may be something similar to Thief, stealth mechanics, dark middle age atmosphere, breaking into houses. But this series was never intended to be this because the original built for the game was supposed to be a new PoP and thats why it was action oriented.
If it was linear and Thief-like it probably wouldn't have sold much. Its still bothers me that Ubishit failed to deliver a medieval Splinter Cell.

it doesn't get less repetitive. i've finished two AC games and they all follow a similar model. I couldn't finish any others because they felt like a chore more than a game. maybe try (pirate) the new RPG ones. they seem like they've mixed things around somewhat. those might be a bit different.

Black Flag and Rogue are in a way the same game, although I found Rogue to be a surprisingly good game since you could actually play as the good guys for once, eventually.

Honestly the only good thing that i enjoyed exploring cities, the game itself is quite repetitive.
I have to admit to have only played 1 and 2(except Revelations).

The AssCreed games are popular with women. They like the historical setting, the collectathons, buying new outfits, and decorating your home base. Ubisoft know this, the series was created by a woman after all (Jade Raymond), that's why the newer games in the series have a mode where you can play without any combat, girls don't like the gameplay theyre not good at.

I don't think people who say AC is good are smart enough to distinguish their metaphorical asses from their metaphorical elbows. My jackass britbong friend plays them all to 100% achievement completion for whatever reason. I told him the games are all terrible and provided details but he never detailed why he liked the games. He's cattle, through-and-through.

I appreciated the first one for showing the crusades with some sort of care for historical accuracy. The crusades were not one giant mass genocide nor some case of European colonialism, pushing out the indigenous peoples. And the conspiracy theory plot with Templars and the Holy grail was interesting for the time ( The da Vinci Code came out a year before. )
But it was the gateway drug for ubisoft open world and for pozzed casting and representation in future games.

Ezio was one of the most overrated characters in all of Assassin's Creed. How many times did he completely abandon the tenets of the creed throughout the course of his series of games? He never matured, even in old age. Ezio was nothing but a hypocrite who killed innocents like Tarik or the civilians in the Derinkuyu fire, and Ezio faced no repercussions for his actions. Yet he has the gall to chastise one of his assassin apprentices in Revelations for killing an innocent target. Ezio was a terrible character.
During the end of Assassin's Creed II, Ezio's quest for revenge leads to a climactic fistfight with the Pope, only for Ezio to have a holier than thou moment. Ezio spares the Pope's life as Ezio realizes that snuffing out Rodrigo Borgia won't bring back his dead father or brothers. Ezio is done with his life of killing. Yet Brotherhood reverts Ezio's character back to square one for no reason. In comes Cesare Borgia who kills Ezio's uncle Mario and sets Ezio off on yet another revenge quest. Ezio learned nothing by the end of Assassin's Creed II.
And it goes without saying that Assassin's Creed Revelations itself was a meandering game which exploited the Ezio fandom. All Ezio does is search for five MacGuffin keys, and by the end of Revelations, he simply comes to say is that he's nothing but a messenger for Desmond in the future. Ezio already realized this when Minerva talked to Desmond through Ezio as Assassin's Creed II came to its cliffhanger ending. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Revelations are nothing but a massive waste of time. Fuck the Ezio trilogy and fuck the Ezio nostalgia fags who continue to shill this slop.

Ezio was shit but that list is also shit. Here's how it should go:
Black Flag >= Rogue > ACIII > Brotherhood >= Revelations > ACII > ACI > the rest of the trash because who cares, also Revelations had the best multiplayer.

Unrealized Potential Tier:
AC1
Shit Tier:
Everything Else
Beating 1 and playing half way through 2 was enough to convince me this franchise was doomed, and watching it from the sidelines has only convinced me I was right. Victorian Trannies, WE WUZ KANGZ, revisionist Greek artwork, etc. What a waste.
a73aed No.16182182
>>16182032
This right here
AC1 was an interesting but unrealized experience everything after that is just derivitive of 1 but with more gadgets collectables characters missions etc…. The game didn't improve. Honestly shadow of mordor is probably better than every assassins creed game as it just apes assassins creed but just does everything better anyway

As if the game wasn't bad enough, now it started crashing on me. Crashed twice today and at least one time yesterday. One of the times it was after killing the target but before getting to the bureau, which meant I had to do everything and watching the stupid cutscenes (which of course, you can't skip) all over again.
I must hate myself for forcing me to play this garbage.

Shadow of Mordor had the right idea with the Nemesis System. The gameplay peaked in Unity and maybe Origins and Odyssey I haven't played it yet but I heard that the combat is an improvement. They just have to marry all this with nuHitman's level design.
