So I was checking Game of the year list on Wikipedia and noticed that Assassin’s Creed was never Game of the Year.
Not on any list around the world did it reach the top. The first one felt very fresh, but it just did not feel complete. But the 2nd one was just an amazing game and that one got beaten on some lists by Uncharted 2 which is understandable, but also by Batman: Arkham Asylum which is basically inspired by AC.
Maybe they should just ditch the whole Animus plot. I wished that Valhalla and Black Flag were just about being a Viking and a Pirate
The original trilogy is amazing. But after those, I would only recommend Black Flag and Origins. I haven’t played the others in the series but I have seen enough of the gameplay and reviews to say that the Assassin’s Creed franchise had jumped the shark.
