This Latest Assassin's Creed: Unity Trailer Is Full of Stabbings, Strife, Superlatives

The biggest problem with the AC franchise was the way they spread out the series. I have bought every game and get sucked in each time. I really liked the first AC and thought ACII was a great step up.

At that stage people were questioning what the next game would be - French Revolution? Japan? etc.

Then AC:Brotherhood came out (admittedly a great game), but another Ezio one. Then Revelations (this is where they started losing me.)

ACIII had promise in theory but played terribly. I actually liked the Hatham opening but Conor was a pretty boring character and the American War of Independence was not utilised well. They also butchered what was left of the Desmond storyline (this went off the rails around Brotherhood).

ACIV (Pirates!) I also really enjoyed the time period and the game.
