Great Story, Fun Gameplay

The gameplay is essentially the same as Black Flag but set in North America. Which is not a bad thing because I liked the gameplay of Black Flag a lot but there is way less grinding to upgrade your ship this time around. I really enjoyed how the game showed the world through the eyes of the Templars. For the first time in the series I realized that maybe there is no good side or bad side but just two different groups of people trying to achieve the same goal in different ways but both can be a little extreme. That is until Unity just takes the Templars back to being pure evil. But I loved how this game ties into the last two games in the franchise and then into Unity. I felt like the graphics were on par with AC3, maybe even a little downgraded than AC3 at times or maybe it's just me. All in all this was a solid Assassin's Creed game I hope it's not the last we see of Shay Cormac. Just finished Unity and he was no where to be seen. Don't want to spoil anything but he should I have made an appearance seeing as how he was involved in setting the wheels in motion for the next game.Read full review
