Now that I think about it, AC3 is actually disappointing
- Nov 14, 2012 2:13 pm GMT

AC3 is actually pretty disappointing. It's a good game, but I don't know, parts of it just didn't click. It's story was disappointing, it's characters weren't well developed, Connor was boring, there was no stealth, the ending was ass, and it was also historically inaccurate in parts (not that I care usually, but it's an AC game, and AC games pride themselves on being historically accurate).
I did love Haytham though, I wish we get a game with him as the lead.
It's still a good game, but I'd say it's the second weakest in the series after Revelations.

I love ac3, but im also an assassins creed fanboy haha (see my logo!). So im biased obviously. But i felt it was obvious the game was made by the same main devs that did ac2. It felt equal in quality to ac2 personally.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

I have to agree with you. Haytham was really interesting whereas Connor never seemed to grow up in character. It's good to see they changed the game this much though.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

[/QUOTE] Characters aren't well developed? They are far better developed than ANY Assassin's Creed game. Connor is actually a more complete protagonist in ACIII than Ezio was in ACII. And unlike ACII, the side characters get FAR better development. Achilles espcially. Sorry, but you are overrating past games in the series. They do worse in the problems you peg ACIII for. Historically inaccurate? So is the other games in the series.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

Connor does in one game what Ezio had to do in three....be a full developed character. Nevermind ACIII being the best paced AC, the one strongest with its themes, and the riskiest introducing a false protagonist.

- Nov 14, 2012 3:47 pm GMTI kinda agree. I had the most fun after finishing the game, clearing out all the forts, intercepting wagons in the frontier, using trip mines and rope darts and stuff. The story missions really don't compare to the ones in AC2

I was pretty excited to get this once it's out on PC but after hearing how disappointing it is, I may just skip it. I didn't play Revelations either so I may just quit buying the AC games, like I did with the Mass Effect series.

(Thomas Jefferson) Ron Paul 2012[QUOTE="charizard1605"]Disappointing relative to what I expected and wanted this game to be, definitely. It's still a great game, though. And I do take issue with a lot of the stuff you say in the OP: + The game had the best combat in the series + Freerunning was incredible, especially in the Frontier + The game nailed the atmosphere + Haytham and Achilles were awesome characters + There was so. Much. Stuff. To. Do. + Dem naval battles. + Connor's story was great (albeit a bit poorly paced in the beginning) + Connor's story had a beautiful, poignant end + Great geographical and temporal accuracy - So many glitches and bugs - Decreased emphasis on stealth - Some of the Full Synchronization objectives were f*cking retarded, and couldn't possibly be achieved in one attempt - Those forced chase sequences. WHY? - The game fails to justify why Charles Lee is the villain in the first place. - Desmond's story had the most awful ending ever - The controls weren't as good as the previous games - Over aggressive AI at times. [/QUOTE] Lee may be the main antagonist, but he is not the Big Bad.....Haytham is. Sometimes the main anatgonist isn't the biggest anatagonist.

They nailed the villain, who I consider to be Haytham, not Lee, and i thought this game did one thing no other AC has give the Templars more personality than just the bad guys, they truly do believe what they are doing is right, I never felt that in any other AC game, and I was somewhat sympathetic. Clearly the Templars and Assasins will be teaming up eventually before the end of the series. I also felt i learned another side of the Revilutionary War, i had only ever learned the American perspective it was neat seeing different perspectives.I didn't hate the ending as much as I thought I would, it wasn't good, but I'm interested in seeing where the series is going, I know most are against yearly releases but I'm dying to know what will happen next. I think if Connor story continues it will have to do with the slave trade, but I'd love if they tackled the trail of tears somehow.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

Yeah, AC III is really fun and it has a lot of content, but something about it just doesn't click. I'd say an 8.5/10 is a pretty accurate score, it's a bunch of great ideas that weren't really strung together too well. It's not as smooth as, say, AC II.
