Dealspwn: "Far from pointing the way forwards for the series, Assassin's Creed: Unity is a model of creative indecision and corporate policy -- a corpulent, broken mess that plays neither to its own strengths nor to its fanbase. There are flashes of promise here, moments when everything comes together, and the game's content package is hefty, but ultimately Unity proves to be a mercifully forgettable disappointment."

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.
GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."
Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective
Yeah i would say brotherhood and 4 were the best for me. I have not played the new ones and Unity was my last one. Seems like i made a good choice.
I gave up after Revelations. Just couldn't bring myself to care anymore and I got burned out of the gameplay.
Definitely agree on 2 and Brotherhood though. Great games.
After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.
Odyssey is a really well-made RPG game ... but it ain't a proper AC game, even though its part of the lore
It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.
The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).
Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.
Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.
Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.
Wow they aren't giving it this score over technical issues.... talk about taking the piss then. Although I can't fault his comments on the story not taking the whole revolution or making you that pivotal to it happening or it's events I think that's a good thing I mean AC3 was abit boring and everyone complained about that and it's fuss over historical accuracy-so they toned down your place in historical events and went more AC2 with it more as a back drop and woven into the story which is definitely for a revolution a better idea. What I personally hope is we'll get a sequel set during Napoleon's campaign as that could be really very good. However this review is certainly unnecessarily harsh especially as the myriad of coop missions cover the issue the author has with lack of participation in historical events.
how about a sequel set in china during its turbulent periods?? imagine the beauty of scaling asian architecture. totally overhauling the fighting engine, adding in different martial arts. letting the player chose which martial art to follow. Or maybe use the chinese civil war as a setting. imagine playing an assasins creed game that feels like The Last Samurai
Game will still sell a s*** ton and they will continue putting it out yearly without really making any interesting changes
