are any of the Assassin's creed games any good or they all just garbagio?

I liked em, though I only played up to 4, with 4 being the best out of them
The Ezio chapters are pretty good too
Black Flag is garbage. A decent concept ruined by tailing and eavesdropping galore, terrible modern segments, and "muh Sage".
Rogue is superior, even if it's shorter and still has those slow, first-person modern segments
Black Flag is fantastic due sailing
>A decent concept ruined by tailing and eavesdropping galore, terrible modern segments, and "muh Sage".
So it was ruined by being an AssCreed game?
I really hope origins brings the series back. It looks like it. but I've been hurt before
3 is great if you're a Native American like me. Black flag is probably the best, though.
It has more tailing and eavesdropping than any other AC game, iirc. It's ridiculous.
2 and brotherhood are the best ones, tho brotherhood is quite short
>are any of the Assassin's creed games any good or they all just garbagio?
AC2 games and Black Flag were good at the time, but they've aged poorly.
The rest as shit.
I can tell right now that Origins will suffer from numerous problems. The question is if most people will be able to overlook them.
For every step forward they take two steps back.

Fuck off, Chad.
What fun about AC Roug
I'd say everything is worth playing except Syndicate and maybe 3. Only play 3 if you like the setting a lot. Syndicate is legitimately one of the worst games of 2015, and that's coming from a big AssCreed fan.
There's only so much shit I can swallow.
The devs don't have a clue what they're doing. It took them this long to even try and fix the trash combat and the stealth was nonexistant.. In Syndicate they added dumb shit like that hookshot that lets you climb buildings really fast, which directly contradicts the parkour/climbing mechanic they established. Climbing is part of the fun and made you try to figure out how to climb up, but then they added something that made climbing braindead. Brilliant.
It's easier to list what isn't.
>modern segments
>naval missions (the mobile app tier minigame)
Both of those were in Black Flag, btw.
I never said Syndicate was good, nigger. In fact, it's the worst AC yet - followed by Black Flag.
I bet you love AC3.
It's alright. Takes way too long to get started and the modern plot is pants-on-head retarded.
>So it was ruined by being an AssCreed game?
The worst parts of BF was whenever it tried to be an asscreed game, yes. It was at its best as an arcadey pirate action game with great water and weather effects.
It didn't have to be this way, either. Just drop the Sage plotline and the modern segments, ditch the tailing bullshit, and expand/detail the map a little more.
AC 1 is decent
AC 2 and Brotherhood are great
AC Revelations is decent
AC 3 would be good if it weren't for the shit story and main character, the gameplay is pretty fun and the environments are great
AC 4 is a good pirate game, story is ass and has way too many eavesdropping/tailing missions
AC Rogue is like AC 3 but with a better MC and slightly better story
AC Unity could've been good if it weren't for the halfassed RPG elements Ubisoft decided to hamfist in and if it weren't for the terrible launch
AC Syndicate is a more polished version of AC Unity but the animations can be a bit wonky
You decide m8.
>AC Syndicate is a more polished version of AC Unity but the animations can be a bit wonky
Wrong. Syndicate is a step down from Unity in every way, except maybe the murder mysteries.
speaking as someone who actually liked the desmond plot and modern day conspiracy shit before they threw it away in 3, BF's modern day was a massive joke. You were literally an iPad on legs. The only enjoyable thing about it was the concept of Ubisoft actually being a part of the evil machine and you playing as an employee and the AC games themselves being more illuminati propaganda.
ezio trilogy is about as good as it gets.
1 is not bad on pc since they added in some extra types of side missions.
4 is cool if you like the sailing stuff but its marred by so many tailing missions. if you don't mind that though and just want some more sailing rogue is fun too.
3 just has such a shitty story and started the wilderness collecthon shit to craft upgrades.
unity was two steps forward and 40 miles sideways; nice interiors, some nice combat advancements but fuck the rest of the game is 100% forgettable mediocre
syndicate is pure fucking trash
I disagree.
>gameplay is pretty fun
>when all the extra stuffs are worthless
>when sequence 8 exists
Fuck off
>waaah someone has a different opinion than me waaah
>3 fag
Disgusting
>So it was ruined by being an AssCreed game?
pretty much. starting with ass creed 3 ubishit farmed parts of the game out to their various sweatshops who had no idea what the other studios were doing and sent their work back to montreal who just mashed it all together and then demanded more additions to bolt on. one branch of ubi did the homestead, one branch did the sailing, one branch did the wilderness, etc. ubi singapore did the sailing shit and got really good at it. we can probably assume 4 started as a pure sailing game that had ass creed shit bolted on at the eleventh hour. they finally made a non ass creed sailing game called skull and bones that comes out next year so if you love black flag you might want to follow that, but it will probably shit anyways.
Shit taste.
>DESIGNATED Assassin and crossdressing dyke questgiver
>no prostitutes in the main game, despite it being Victorian London
>weapon variety is dumbed down
>animations are shit, like you mentioned
>can only wear a hood when crouched
>a fucking grappling hook
>combo meter in combat for no good reason
>only female protag gets stupidly overpowered armor
game looks worse than Unity, yet had framerate issues months after release
>rifts are now reduced to just one location
>Jack the Ripper DLC is fucking atrocious
Neck yourself.
I liked Black Flag, sell me on Rogue.
2, Brotherhood, 4, and Rogue are all good.
>Skull and bones
I had no idea this existed. Thanks user. Sounds like I'll have a reason to keep uPlay around besides Siege after all
unless...
more of the same with a different setting, more OP ship if you upgrade it, and a templar mc.
Ezio Auditore is the SuperMario of adult videogames.
can't prove me wrong so I'm not even protipping
He's a pretty damned enjoyable character. Definitely by far the most likable with Edward the closest runner up. I'm still angry with how much of a cunt Connor turned out to be.
Shit, I kind of regret not buying it when it was still on sale.
AC2 and its expansion pack Brotherhoord are alright
Rogue is okay too
Rest are all trash, also beware the series is very keen on history revisionism do not take it very seriously
its on sale on steam for $6.79 right now.
Better mission variety.
I don't have a good PC and my laptop has Intel HD Graphics. I was talking about the series sale on the PS3 just a couple days ago.
Coming from someonw who once loved the series you can go wrong with 1, 2, and Brotherhood. Anything beyond that is AAA garbage.
ah. itll pop up on sale again someday, games pretty old.
Edward isn't likeable.
What's with the dart gun? Seemed like a gimmick weapon from the gameplay I saw. They kept the pistol sets, right?
sure he is. it's amusing how he plays off both sides for his own profit at least. I felt like it was refreshing to see an AC main character do that rather than being some altruistic nofunallowed type.
Add Revelations too, just to finish the Ezio storyline
How often do flash sales happen in PSN? I was hoping for one to show up this month, but it's almost the end of the month already and the COD sale just started.
ezio's storyline gets finished in a movie, revelations was shit
damn right
Ezio
>they kill his family
>he kills everyone even remotely involved in the conspiracy
>he stills entertain himself with prime pussy as an old man
>he's a charming and confident person
Connor
>they kill his family
>he ends up helping the people responsible for it
>he kills his remaining family himself
>he has crippling daddy/mommy issues
>he probably likes buttstuff
>he's a whiny fag
It's basically a blowpipe. Looks better and has a grenade launcher attachment, though. And yeah, the mc has two matching pistols.
Unity is maybe worth $10 just to explore the setting. The game is hands-down one of the most beautiful games on PC currently and Paris is very immersive and detailed. The combat is more fun that other games imo but beware of the glitches
Ezio
>a Mary Sue
Connor
>realistically flawed
ezio is a flawed character though, he just has development. he starts as a whiny kid who blames everything on everyone else, by the end of Brotherhood he's the manliest and most suave dude ever.
connor just spends his entire game being a weird cunt and at the end is still a weird cunt.
Connor is a naive savage who only realizes the way of the world towards the end of the game. That's character development.
Ezio is "manly and suave" from the beginning of 2, you closeted faggot.
Swag Flag is fucking great. Just do what everyone did: ignore you're playing an AC game and enjoy a 9/10 pirate game.
>sure he is. it's amusing how he plays off both sides for his own profit at least.
That is for about 3-4 missions. Half of the missions are follows:
>Edward "I know of a great treasure lets go search for it"
>Someone else "No, lets faff about and accomplish nothing."
>Edward "ok"
>tail for 5 minutes
>nothing concerning Edward is accomplished
>2 missions later said person does something stupid and dies
Memes aside, how's Freedom Cry and the Liberation port? I unironically enjoy the games (played through 4, all without dlc) and I'm for sure buying Unity, Syndicate, and Rogue
I had more fun with Freedom Cry than AC IV
>better mission variety
>no modern bullshit
>not padded out
>blunderbuss > gay pistols
Liberation is great - the only AC to use an actual disguise/persona system, has an option to wear the conspicuous-ass Assassin hood or not, and features some unique settings.
Avoid Syndicate.
no love for the first one?
it's one of my favourite games, when it came out it was nothing short of mind-blowing
The setting is fantastic.
thanks user, I'll pick them up too. Still gonna buy Syndicate though.
Almost everything about the game was fantastic. One of the first games that felt truly next gen
Freedom Cry is nice, Adwalé is surprisingly good as a main character, although the main mission is short and there isn't much world to dick around in as with AC4
Liberation is a half-assed mess, they tried to implement some cool new mechanics but the result is an aborted turd of a "game", the worst asscreed by far imo
You haven't played Syndicate.
>So it was ruined by being an AssCreed game?
No. It was ruined by being a shitty AssCreed game.
2 and brotherhood are god tier video games
syndicate is ok. the rest are fucking trash kek. especially black flag.
I have but I couldn't get to finish it, same with Unity
Unity makes me particularly mad 2bh, it has the best art design/graphics combo I've ever seen in a videogame but the gameplay is a rotting pile of reeking garbage, the story is a laughable mess too
wtf were they thinking we may never know, it's like when you crank to the max two sliders out of three in gamedev tycoon and leave the third to zero
Its the best , no matter what others tell
I really liked how they did the assasinations mission in unity and Syndicate because how they reminded me of the mission you had to do in this game to get the target. Gets me hope in the next title
2 is one of my favorite games of all time. Comfiest game ever IMO.
youtu.be
>ezio is manly and suave
Sure, but mature he is not.
bump
wrong
How fun is Unity? I want to play dress up and Unity looks like the only AC game with a shitton of clothes.
...
that don't look like AC 2 ezio to me
Unity is alright. Rogue is better.
Assassin's Creed 2 is pretty good. Brotherhood and Revelations were okay expansions sold for full price.
Assassin's Creed 3 is a fucking war crime. I paid full price for it. I still cringe thinking about it. That game is one of my triggers. I hate it with every nanoangstrom of the 387.44 millions miles of printed circuits in wafer-thin layers that fill my complex. I swore off the franchise forever after that one.
Holy fuck, this is cancer. Drink bleach, reddit.
