I basically grew up with Altair's and Ezio's AC. Had a hard time getting into AC3, but when it clicked - it clicked. Black Flag was the shit, I reached 100% twice, which is a big deal for me.
The new ACs (Origin and forth) just don't do it for me. It feels extremely cheap and overwhelming at the time. The scope of these games is so gargantuan, and it's too much for their own good. These games are just clunky, imbalanced, and extremely unpolished.
