Media Assassin's Creed UNITY (PS4,X1,PC)

[RIDDICK]

I found Unity's story to be the weakest in the series, 2nd only to AC3.

Thank you, good sir!
I will not waste my time on this then.

I'm at chapter 7 and is much better than AC4 and 3 combined

It's no Ezio saga but it's not bad at all. I take back my earlier comment about the graphics too

Including AC3's story in the combination is a negative.

I didn't mind 4 but wasn't so hot on it either

I think unity is better than both and feels more like an AC game, hopefully they patch some of the problems soon

There hasn't been much character development though I will agree with that!

I don't like the fact for the legacy items you need to do the initiative stuff but there is no initiative stuff ready yet

And more than half [close to 75%] of the Legendary gear is still locked because of "Club Challenges" which aren't even out either.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I bet they aren't made available until most people have finished and put the game down too

Regardless, I do very much like the the design of Arno and his Assassins outfit, maybe my 2nd favorite just slightly behind Revelations Ezio

i'm holding off my second playthrough till they fix all the issues, especially the Frame rate drops, it was ruining my experience.

Black Flag had consistant 30fps, atleast make it as that.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I don't even really notice it much to be honest but I wouldn't know what I was looking for anyway. I'm not technical and there hasn't been anything I've noticed Thata stand out so maybe it effects the gamers who care more about specs?

I haven't played it online either just offline

Spoiler Alert for those who havn't finished playing Unity or Rogue

Spoiler

Arno Still didn't get his Revenge, the one who killed his Father is Shay, he only got his Revenge on who killed
François de la Serre "Adoptive father"

I'm dying to play this game on my PC. I actually have the graphics maxed and I'm getting a smooth framerate. My problem is the during the cinematics the audio is almost completely muted for some reason. Really kills the experience. I'm hoping they'll have the app and initiates fixed by Thanksgiving and I'll play then as it was meant to be played.

On disc DLC I bet



Far Cry has Single player Main missions cut and put into the Season Pass DLC..... very naughty

This trend is starting to annoy me. It seems more a norm anymore, and part of the reason why I only buy a few games brand new.

I haven't finished yet but I do agree that the story and character development is lacking a bit. I'm just having fun running around killing the random bad guys while occasionally mixing in the main story missions.

I think they've lost their way with the overall story they were trying to tell and for that reason this will be the last AC game I pick up.

Yes terrible storytelling. Its clear the game director or whoever comes up with the pacing of the story is just awful at doing it. If you compare these games with something like the Uncharted series, where the story is so fluid its almost cinematic and there are plenty of other games that do this well but Assassins Creed does not and the series is pretty much dead to me.

Finished the game last night; I personally found Unity's story to be the weakest in the series, 2nd only to AC3.

The ending was way too cliche. Too many integral parts of Arno's story were skipped and there was really little side-character development.

I agree. Arno is very much an Ezio 2.0 but he seems to be very underutilized and underdeveloped compared to other AC protagonists. You can see hints of his personality, but once he becomes an assassin, it's barely there. Even Connor's "always angry and pissed" attitude came through more when he was an assassin.

I almost feel like UbiSoft concentrated more on getting all these game features and connectivity together than fleshing out a good story. I mean, at least it's more a story than the epic script failure that is DESTINY, but in my opinion, I have enough fun with the gameplay that I can overlook the lacking story. It's pretty incredible walking through the city with all the craziness going on and UbiSoft did a tremendous job making it all unique with riots and other stuff going on.

I don't think thats possible.
