AC IV: The Downfall of Assassin's Creed

I'll be honest here. I don't like the fact that the majority of the game takes place at sea... I really wanted some land in this game where i could explore on foot rather than swimming or sailing on the 7 seas. It seems that i can only parkour in some certain areas that look very miniscule in scale compared to Assassin's creed 2. Most of the Major cities seem very tiny and generally unlikable compared to AC 2 in my opinion. AC2 had the largest areas, with perfect rooftops for Parkour and amazing historical landmarks. I felt like the Rooftop epicness only returned in Revelations. Sorry guys, but AC4 seems more like a pirate game than an Assassins Creed game. I have not even once seen gameplay of the classic Hidden blade yet, which is really sad because that unique weapon was the driving force and the selling point of the game, as well as the parkour which seems to be lacking due to the majority of the entire world being an Ocean with little Caribbean Islands... Furthermore, I really can't tell how Templars play a vital role in this game. Edward seems to take over forts and ships, but he does not face his true opponent, the Templars. They played a crucial part of Altair and Ezio's story, and how history was shaped due to these fictional events; However i don't know how much history is involved in the Caribbean. Everything we've seen so far in Assassin's Creed 4 is gameplay on how to assassinate and swim, but there has been nothing concerning the overall story, and how Templars play a role that completely mess with your brain. TL;DR: Assassin's Creed 4 is more of a Pirate game rather than an Assassin game, and You now sail ships rather than parkour around vast cities. Templars are no longer the focus and raiding forts and ships is now the main goal of the game. Is there anyone else out there who agrees?

  • I can see Ubisoft hitting a gold mine and by the next assassins creed I bet they would of made it so people can then have online battles between each other on their boats. Thats just the direction and opinion I think as for the overall series the pirating brought something nice and you can bet on ubisoft to make the most out of it whilst they continue to forget why exactly people liked this gaming series.
