minus-squareyunglucifer@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·10 天前Weird, Assassin’s Creed died with 2 when they fired the creator.
minus-squareRightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18·10 天前Okay but Black Flag slapped. Maybe not as an AC game per se, but Black Flag was still a greater game.
minus-squarehalcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·10 天前Black Flag was a mediocre Assassin’s Creed game, at best. It was a phenomenal pirate game
minus-squareSenseless@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·10 天前Agreed. Black Flag was awesome. Never finished the story though. Just sailing, singing shanties.
minus-squareRichard@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·10 天前And Rogue. I rarely hear Rogue mentioned but it’s my favourite. I find the story the most appealing, and it comes with so much moral ambiguity.
minus-squareVindictiveJudge@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·10 天前Gameplay-wise, Rogue is even better than Black Flag. Narratively, Rogue is a disaster fueled by Shay being painfully stupid.
minus-squareeRac@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 天前Being released at the same time as the significantly more modern (and unpopular) Unity didn’t do Rogue any favors.
minus-squareBlaiz0r@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·10 天前Is that why the third one never concluded the series as it was originally intended?
minus-squareMaggiWuerze@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·10 天前Probably more to do with boatloads of money to be made
minus-squarekingthrillgore@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·10 天前Sad because 2 is where it hit its stride
