It's been 3 games in the Assassin's Creed series since a jaw dropping game like Assassin's Creed 2 was released. Assassin's Creed 3 had its good and bad moments, but still made many feel negative about the whole series and how it was slowly going down the toilet. Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag denies that outcome. As a fan who has played every game in the series I am proud to see that the franchise has outdone themselves. The map is ginormous! From the Spanish city of Havana to the vast open sea of the West Indies, there is a bounty of activities to keep you busy (over 80 hours to be exact). Unlike the beginning of AC3, you are immediately set into action with the charming and confident Edward Kenway (the grandfather of the previous assassin Connor). Edward's story is intriguing, as he is an assassin trying to figure out what he wants in life. The pros for me are: great voice acting, amazing ship gameplay, a palpable new world to explore, and a protagonist to be loved just as much as Ezio. For the cons: not much, maybe a little stutter here and there while free running, STILL NO CROUCH BUTTON!!!! But the cons don't ruin it, the game is still awesome. To know that Assassin's Creed isn't becoming some re-skin like Call of Duty, I can't wait what they have in store for us in the future.
