So a while back, I wanted to play Conkere bad furday. After doing some math I worked out that it was cheaper to get an Xbox One and Rare Replay, than the original game.
But now that I have Conkers, and a new box. I thought to myself. Hey isn’t this backwards compatible with 360. Which it was. But this lead me to another thought. Why deal with Ubisoft BS on PCs and their Client. Where older games force you to sign in to play them. When I could just have them on one box.
Which eventually lead me to acquiring this small collection. Total price is $155.88 CAD (before tax) and I know I overpaid for some of the later games. But it’s all on one system with no Uplay BS in my face.
Ac1 - $3
AC2 - $4
ACB - $8
ACRe - $8
AC3 - $12
ACB - $7
ACRo - $15
ACU - $10 ($7 more than i think should costs)
ACS - $13
ACC - $18 (shocked with this one)
ACOr - $20 (could’ve got it for $10 but got it on impulse)
ACOd - $20
ACV - $30 (again $10 over used)
I played 1 when it released and 2 a few years ago. I thought the storyline was great, really long, many characters, very pleasant playthrough. I own 3 but never played it, anyone has an opinion about it ? I've heard better things about brotherhood and revelations but honestly I felt 2 was enough time spent in Italy
3 is kinda meh, it doesn't have a super compelling story or main character.
Brotherhood and Revelations are continuations of 2s storyline, if you didn't know that already.
I'd recommend finding a copy of Assassin's Creed 4. It's probably the best of the entire series; in gameplay, setting, and story.
4 is the one on pirate ships ? I've always wondered if it didn't lack intricate city parkour, which is what I dug most in the first two. I'll try it, cheers
Oddly, 4 does have a few cities in addition to the nautical stuff. They aren't big name cities, but Havana, Kingston and Nassau of that period. Kind of interesting, especially right when Pirates of the Caribbean was popular.
