Review: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Posted on: 2013-11-22 14:43:22 What do we do with a drunken sailor? STAB THEM! By Adam Tingle @ Strategy Informer The trouble with the ibn-La'Ahad's, the Auditore's, the Kenway's, and the Miles' is that they are absolutely shit at being assassins. For self-confessed members of a shady cult of organised killers, they are rubbish at being just that. Ubisoft would have been better off naming their most senior franchise: 'Parkour Enthusiast's Creed' or even 'Really Clumsy Bastards' Creed' because silent killers these men are definitely not. In a move that is both pleasing and obvious, this year's installment of Animus century hopping has stepped away from all of that assassin stuff. This time around, you're a pirate. A swashbuckler. A vagabond. Oh sure, you wear the correct uniform, conveniently equip the wrist blades but really? You're about as much of a hired killer as Batman is a real detective. Read The Review Here |
