Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag

This review was originally posted to KingreX32’s Reviews on November 23rd 2013

After falling in love with Assassins Creed 3, when I found out about Assassins Creed 4 I just had to own it. As much as I wanted Assassins Creed 4 though, I put all of my preorder money on Batman Arkham Origins and Watch Dogs. I wasn’t planning on getting AC4 until boxing day, but then Ubisoft decided to delay Watch dogs until April 2014, as sad as I was, I was also happy because now I could just use the Watch Dogs preorder money and Get AC4.

Assassins Creed Series Playthrough Progress Update #3 and Assassins Creed Movie thoughts.

Well its here, the Assassins Creed Movie came out and i finally saw it this past  Saturday. But before I get into the film my playthrough progress; as predicted I wasn’t able to finish all the games I had before the film came out. I was able to get to Sequence 6 in Assassins Creed 3 which is about the halfway mark for the game. If I was to come out of my hiatus only a week earlier there’s a chance i probably could have finished 3 and  liberation in the time I had left.

Despite having already seen the film I’m going to continue with my playthrough of the series and now that  I have a PS4 (Thank you Amazon sale) I can Purchase Unity and Syndicate and play through those ones as well. As I’ve stated before Assassins Creed 3 is my favourite of the series mainly because it was the first assassins creed title I played, even after Playing 2 and Brotherhood I still enjoyed playing through Assassins Creed 3. For a game that came out in 2012 it still looks beautiful and exploring the Frontier, meeting all the famous individuals from that time period (Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, Ben Franklin etc) and taking part in the well known events like The Boston Tea Party and Accompanying Paul Revere on his famous ride were all so awesome. One thing I love about the Assassins Creed games is the real history  behind the stories. I’m a low key history nerd…….forgive me.

Assassins Creed Series Playthrough Progress

 

So my Assassins creed series playthrough is going well. I finished Assassins creed on Saturday, and Started Assassin’s Creed 2 the same day. I’m currently halfway through the second game. Not counting Unity or Syndicate I should definitely be done all the games before the movie comes out in the December.  I’m also following a handy guide for playing the games in chronological order. (it also includes the movie)

After Revelations I’m to start Assassins Creed four instead of three. After Black Flag its the Freedom Cry DLC, then Rouge, then three, then Liberation.  Which is a little confusing but worth it. Now I’ve heard the reports that the Assassins Creed movie with be based on the Spanish Inquisition (that nobody expected) in the 15th century so a little bit before Assassins creed 2 but after the first game. It will follow a completely new assassin and have a totally original story. As I mentioned in my last post.
