Day 10 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (lemmy.world)

Today’s Game is Assassins Creed Black Flag. Honestly I’m kind of impressed I made it too 10 days. I totally expected myself to miss a day on my streak. Also. A few people in the past have asked about posting screenshots in the comments or stealing the idea for their own posts. Assuming the mods are chill with it I have no issues with people doing either of those things. I just want people to have fun

Yeah, the best AC, unfortunately I lost my saves because I uninstalled some stupid Ubisoft tool

The best AC because it contains the least amount of AC.

The best AC is either Origins or Odyssey.

Origins was great, but I'm sorry the best was 2

2 definitely felt like they'd finally built a game around the tech demo that was 1.

Agreed. It might not be the best one but I have a real soft spot for revelations, old man Ezio is a very compelling character, the setting, wrapping up arc for characters. We get plenty of Egypt in games but I can recall ever getting the Ottoman Empire.

Also Unity is underrated, if it had been polished at launch I hold it would have been the best game in the original style gameplay series by far.

Loved the old man Altair bits as well.

I think Unity's main issue was they marketed the multiplayer heavily, but it was only in the game for an extremely limited number of missions.

They managed to annoy single player gamers and multiplayer gamers in one stroke.

They got overambitious with the crowds as well, leading to poor performance on consoles, along with a whole load of weird bugs. I played it on PC years later (maybe when the Notre Dame burned down?) and there were still parts of the game bugged, or chugged down to 20 fps for no reason.

I don't hate them as games, but the need for gear to be able to actually do assassinations on the bigger guys somewhat makes it not an AC game any more. Still the same slightly tired gameplay, but the one element that made it satisfying is no longer there.

I made that mistake with AC Unity. Got sent from the 6th section all the way back to the 4th. Nearly a year later and I still haven’t picked it back up to finish it

Unity was awesome too, my only gripe was the crowds, like streets and corridors full of people, just walking, partying maybe, this hanging my then GPU
