Every sequel is worth it except unity

reply

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

Are the other sequels worth playing?

Contrary to what the idiotic "MasterAltair" claims, Unity is indeed worth it.

The Ezio trilogy (Assassin's 2, Brotherhood & Revelations) are the best games of the franchise. Followed by Syndicate & Unity. Assassin's Creed 3 & Assassin's Creed 4 (Black Flag) can easily be dismissed for a large variety of reasons, like those stupid naval battles and uninteresting lead characters with a boring storyline.

Nothing in that sentence makes sense. You should know by now that google is not good translator. Since you are still a little bitch and a troll i wont continue this any further

Alas for your overly pathetic self, every word in that sentence makes perfect sense, you brain dead little fairy. As I've already told you, I do not use google or any kind of translator since I don't need any translation, as I fluently speak over 14 different languages, dumbass. The only little bitch and troll here is yourself, and you must certainly will continue this until I say it's over and ONLY when I say it's over.

Contrary to what the idiotic "MasterAltair" claims, Unity is indeed worth it.

YES. Unity is criminally underrated. It has a terrible reputation for being glitchy and buggy to the point of being unplayable, but it was so exaggerated. Most of the "evidence" was footage and jpegs sourced from pre-release PC copies without the day 1 patch, using the wrong drivers etc. I played it on PS4 on day 1, and most of the only glitches I ever saw were NPCs doing goofy things like trying to walk through solid objects or floating down the street instead of walking. True it was buggier than a retail release should bem but after a couple of patches it runs as well as any game. The story isn't great, it's more about two characters seeking revenge than revealing anything particularly important about the Assassins or Templars, but it's not bad. The version of Paris in the game is incredible.

I just said in another thread, even the "bad" AC games are actually pretty good, all things being relative.

reply

[–] ttrek-1 9 years ago

The fact the DAY ONE patch was like 14 gigs or so would seem to show the game was not even nearly ready to be released.

Plus, somehow, the game managed to make the French Revolution, one of the bloodiest and interesting periods on history, so... damn... boring.

The Ezio Trilogy, Black Flag and Rogue and the first game are the heights of the series, although Syndicate is a close runner up.

Unity was worse than cancer.

reply

[–] ChrRome 8 years ago

I gave up on Unity a few weeks after release because it was so buggy fyi

reply

[–] benelli86 9 years ago

Calling the kettle black are we? How can anyone take you seriously after you imply that Unity is a better game than Black Flag? Have you even played Black Flag? I doubt it. Black Flag is amazing and to suggest to someone that they can skip it, is insane.

reply

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

You're trying too hard, kiddo, and you've got zero credibility, hence why no one agrees with you about your passionate love for Black Flag, lol!!

All the sequels are worth playing.
Mind you however the first five are the best:

Assassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed II
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
Assassin's Creed Revelations
Assassin's Creed III

Those five are the best in the entire series.
The rest, though can be skipped, are still worth playing. Mind you however, the sequels that follow focus more on gameplay, combat, and graphics, and not so much the story or modern day setting. This includes:

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Assassin's Creed: Rogue
Assassin's Creed: Unity
Assassin's Creed: Syndicate

They're worth playing, but they're not nearly as original and as great as the first five games. They have much bigger open worlds, improved next generation graphics and design, and share different controls to combat and exploring.

reply

[–] ThelVadam 9 years ago

I am a diehard AC fan who has played every game, and I fully support this description. Couldn't have said it better myself.

If you can, definitely play all of them. They're all really good. However, if you have limited time, the first 5 are truly the only important ones, story-wise. Especially if preparing for the movie, which is significantly in the present-day.

reply

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

Not quite true.

Assassin's Creed 3 & 4((Black Flag), along with Rogue, are boring to death, and should completely be skipped.

reply

[–] Vaan1988 9 years ago

3 Was boring but Rogue was quite of a fresh take due to playing as a Templar (Don't count 20min of Haytam Kenway in 3)

In terms of Black Flag... Ubisoft wanted to make a pirate game but rushed to put Assassin's Creed's name on it to cash in. Edward Kenway was a bland protagonist so I'll give you that.

Do you think you can ride that Chocobo? Gas 'em up with the greens and let him go

reply

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

Playing as a Templar dit not prevent Rogue from being boring to death.

reply

[–] nightology_85 9 years ago

I've played all games excepting AC Revelations and AC Syndicate. So far, I enjoyed mostly, all games involving Desmond Miles, whose storyline ends in AC III (You play 3 different assassins in 3 different time periods, Altaïr, Ezzio and Connor).

Despite of all bad critics to AC Unity, I've enjoyed that game as well. The only one I dislike the most was AC Black Flag, and this is the reason: most part of the game takes place in the pirate ship, and there were times I lost patience with the battleships and skipped the game. AC III and AC Rogue also had battleship moments but in a lesser level.

reply

[–] mbfowler99 9 years ago

The game is 60/40 (in terms of land exploration to naval)

reply

[–] ttrek-1 9 years ago

The focus on Naval battles and the variety of locations and a protagonist who thinks the whole Templar and Assassin war for magic stuff is just a bit too high on the crazy scale was a breath of fresh air after playing his dull as dish-water grandson.

Now if you played ACIII as Haytham, thst would have been a much better experience... he at least was interesting.

The Naval battles were a challenge, and Black Flag could have cut down considerably on the tailing missions, though I liked the one where the Jackdaw was tailing a shio through a bayou at night. And gadding about the high-seas with Blackbeard was awesome.

reply

[–] ThelVadam 9 years ago

Hey, cool man! Wasn't that ending friggin' mind-bending?!

Anyway, as I said in a response to another's answer to your question, if you have the time you should definitely play all of them. Lemme know what you think of Brotherhood!

reply

[–] mbfowler99 9 years ago

Continue at least up to ac4 (my personal favorite and it fully closed out the Desmond at for a new "era" so to speak starting with unity). Anyways, I'm gonna be blunt, don't listen to the ones that say ac4 is more of a pirate game than an ac game (referring to people who say that in general). The point of the game's story was giving an outsider perspective to the assassin-Templar war and what defines an individual

reply

[–] 9 years ago

[deleted]

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

I'm gonna be blunt: Dont' waste your money, time & energy on AC4: Black Flag. It is the most boring and least interesting game of the entire franchise. Not to mention the fact that the lead character generates zero appeal, empathy and compassion for him and his storyline. It is what it is: much more of a pirate game than an assassin game.

Agreed!

reply

[–] Druffmaul 9 years ago

I agree with him too! AC4 is easily my least favorite in the main series. Swapping out huge iconic explorable cities in favor of a @#$%ing sail boat and an empty sea? Whoever at Ubi came up with that idea and whoever approved it can both go to hell.

reply

[–] ttrek-1 9 years ago

I thought it was a welcome change of pace. Taking what worked in ACIII and making it the primary focus of the game.

It was good to play as a character who couldn't give two monkey craps about the Templars and Assassin's and their convoluted bullcrap, unless it made him money. Certainly, way more fun than Connor... that guy was a species of statue.

Plus, as if sailing the high seas with a bunch of scallywags and miscreants singing seas shanties wasn't fun.

Plus you got to gadabout and Pirate the crap out of the Caribbean with Blackbeard himself.

What is wrong with all these idiots saying that AC4 isn't a good game? Black Flag was amazing! It's one of the best games in the series. To imply that AC3, Unity or Syndicate are better games than Black Flag is pure insanity!!

The reason those idiots didn't like the naval missions is that they were too difficult for them. They couldn't get 100% sync and they are still crying about it. I bet they are all 12 year old little boys.

reply

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

Nothing is wrong with those alleged "idiots" since they're obviously smarter than you. Regardless if a moron like yourself agrees or not, "Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag" is pure crap and the worst game in the franchise. Totally awful, boring and uninteresting.

Unity & Syndicate may have their flaws but by comparison with a disastrous train wreck like Black Flag, they're actually magnificent masterpieces. The naval missions are not too difficult... they're just too predictable, repetitive and coma-inducing. And if anyone here actually was 12 years old (even though everyone here is actually quite older), they'd still be older than you, kiddo.

reply

[–] benelli86 9 years ago

Hahahahahaha!!!!! You're a delusional psychopath!What kind of pathetic moron, are you? Lying about speaking 14 different languages. I feel sorry for you.

Calling someone else kiddo only proves that you're just a little boy yourself. You're not even old enough to play AC. Stop lying. It's very clear that you haven't even played Black Flag, either that or you are still upset that you couldn't complete the game 100% because you are a incompetent little moron. Stop crying like a little baby. Black Flag was amazing and Rogue was much better than Unity. Deal with it and stop crying!!! Don't bother replying with anymore lies. I've had enough of your lies.

reply

[–] Snow-Ghost 9 years ago

LMAO!! The only delusional "psychpath" & pathetic moron here is yourself, retard. Not lying about speaking 14 different languages. You're simply jealous. Feel sorry only for yourself.

Calling someone else kiddo only proves that you're just a little boy yourself

1. Is that the best you managed to come up with? Talk about lame, ridiculous & highly ineffective, even for a sad loser like yourself.
2. As usual, you're completely wrong.
3. Too bad your idiotic theory can't work since I'm actually a grown woman, dickhead, lol!!

And I am indeed older than you. And I have indeed, and with lots of regrets, played the tedious & boring Black Flag, you simpleton. I wouldn't be able to affirm how boring and awful it is unless I had indeed play it. Guess what? You're the only one crying like a little baby. Black Flag is simply horrid & sucks ass in the worst possible. By comparison, Unity & Syndicate are masterpieces, despite their numerous respective flaws. I'll reply as often as I want to and there's not a damn thing you can do about it. The only lies here are your own, you sad little fairy.

Read my post above about benelli. He/she is a lying psychotic trolling nutcase who has a habit of pretending to be what they're not on the internet, and boy do they ever have it in for you if you expose them! They're just unstable and IMDb should apply for a restraining order against it. Nothing wrong with a little embellishing on the net but when you out and out make up an outrageous and *OBVIOUS* lie, so obvious it sticks out like dogs balls, and then viciously and obsessively go after the person who outed you, you know you have a problem. And benelli is clearly a very very very sick puppy who clearly lives in their mother's basement and makes up a fantasy career to go with their online fantasy world.

reply

[–] Gypsy12 9 years ago

Wow. You just make enemies everywhere you go, don't you, benelli?! You are seriously obsessed and crazy, like a dog with a bone, you need to be right and if you aren't you make damn sure to pummel your opponent because you are gutless, delusional and cannot admit you're wrong.

For those on here, I busted benellie the psychotic troll POSING AS A *LAWYER*, yet they couldn't even spell 'embarrassed'. They spelled it embarressed! It got a grudge against me when I pointed it out and exposed them, then made a half-arse attempt to cover it up by saying English isn't their first language. Amazingly, reading through their posts, they have NEVER had a problem with the English language before.

So, just a warning - benelli86 is a psychotic unstable and obsessive troll. Put it on ignore and report, as I intend to.

[–] benelli86 9 years ago

Hahahahaha!! Did I hit a nerve? Why are you replying to me in a thread about AC? Is it because everyone on the Angelina Jolie board already knows what kind of a psychotic moron you are?

Are you stalking me now, you crazy Angelina Jolie obsessed psycho? I live in the Netherlands you idiot! So no, English isn't my first language, Dutch is.

Who is they and them? What kind of idiot are you? You should be ashamed of yourself.

Anyone with any kind of education knows that Rotterdam is in the Netherlands. It's one of the biggest ports in the world. Maybe if you weren't so busy stalking me, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt you would know this, but you clearly don't have any education at all.

I couldn't care less if you don't believe that I'm a lawyer. You just can't stand the fact that I told the truth about your psychotic obsessive behavior. You're very sick and need help. You disgust me.

You really are a special kind of crazy, aren't you Gypsy12? I've just read a couple of your new posts on the Angelina Jolie board.

You got it right, Gypsy12. The obnoxious benelli86 is indeed one hell of a stupid troll. He always accuses people of doing and being what he does and is himself.

[–] gstards 9 years ago

I absolutely agree! Black Flag was a totally awesome game, while AC3 was just good, imo, and Unity and Syndicate were nothing more than cliched garbage. I simply don't understand people who can rate this games higher than Black Flag (and Rogue). The only reason while some can rate Unity higher is if he prefers the detailed open-world to anything else in games.

And the naval missions in Black Flag was the real lifebuoy for the series which stuck in its own game mechanic. They were spectacular and engrossing.

Nolan, I love you forever!
