[@evandroescutatrap131]

@@D-F-T Rodrigo's death wouldn't change anything. Ezio's mistake (if we can call it a mistake, since seen it coming would be impossible) was to not truly understand his role until much later in Rome. In AC2 boy got from mad kid seeking revenge to stealthy assassin with deep respect for life, the people and world around him. AC:B and AC:R only serve the purpose to tie Ezio, Altair and Desmond together.

Edward could be outnumbered, shot at, and still need to worry about falling. It made it realistic..... Challenging... Unity Wounded this Franchise..... Odyssey buried it.

[@Anu-YT394]

Hands down one of the best games i've ever played, this specific game blew my mind and paved the way for the upcoming Assassin's Creed Games. I LOVED this game it had a really good storyline, a really badass protagonist, We could really FEEL the protagonist, the entire game looked fantastic really beautiful graphics. This game from Ubisoft and Splinter Cell Chaos theory are my all time favorites. It's just that the Splinter cell series is has really been forgotten by many fans. But lemme tell ya the time period i grew up Splinter cell was the pinnacle of stealth gaming. Still to this day i LOVE Splinter cell and will never forget the first time i played all 6 games but man Assassins Creed really fell of the charts for me after syndicate....Assassins Creed became more of a free roam game with no story it just became grind to even assassinate enemies like whats an assassin even good for if he can't assassinate like till syndicate it was like your level didn't matter if you took your enemies down with stealth but now you HAVE to be a specific level to even kill your target. But at the end of the day Assassins creed Black Flag was the best game in the franchise at least for me.

Couldn’t agree more! Black Flag is one of my all time favorite games, and still holds up for me today!
