| Now '''Assassin's Creed III''' has been released, there has been much speculation as to which time periods will be explored in later games. I have found 3 blog posts ([[User_blog:LancelotLoire/Assassin_Creed_4_Idea|Post 1]], [[User_blog:Wagnike2/Assasin's_Creed_Fantasy_Setting|Post 2]], [[User_blog:MeDeoPal/Assassin's_Creed_IV_Story_Ideas_(Ye_Be_Warned_Of_Ye_Spoilers)|Post 3, spoiler alert]]) speculating on future settings, and I have also made [[User blog:Kabutsu/Assassin's Creed IV Setting Ideas|one]] myself. | | YAY! I'm continuing with [[ACFanon:The_Apple|this]] again (finally)! Please check it out and tell me what you think. I am also simultaneously writing [[ACFanon:Pandemonium|another]] fanon, this one taking place in Europe from 1911 until 1939. Please read it and tell me what you think. |

| |
| |style="background:#330000;padding:6px"|<span style="font-color:#FFFFFF;font-size:12px;justified"> Overall, '''Assassin's Creed III''' boasts by far the most interesting and engaging story from the series to date. However, the long start does leave players itching to get into Connor's shoes for a long time, and Desmond's story is far from satisfactory. But this is the most morally grey of the franchise so far, and Connor's conflicts with Achilles, and with morality as a whole, are executed well, so the story deserves a solid '''22/25'''.</span>

| '''Re-playability, and Setting''' </span>
| |
| |style="background:#330000;padding:6px"|<span style="font-color:#FFFFFF;font-size:12px;justified"> The biggest lifts for '''Assassin's Creed III's''' gameplay come in it's navigation, combat, and sheer amount of side content. The combat is much more fluid and easy to control, as is the navigation, with the wilderness setting a perfect place to explore new methods of navigation. The single player mode keeps you entertained with a barrage of entertaining side-missions, of which the naval combat is the most exciting, keeping you hooked for longer, despite an array of glitches and horrendous AI. The multiplayer also offers an interesting, slower-paced alternative to other games, giving the gameplay a score of '''20/25'''.</span>

| |
| |style="background:#330000;padding:6px"|<span style="font-color:#FFFFFF;font-size:12px;justified"> I'm no sound expert, but the sound effects and audio quality of '''Assassin's Creed III''' are great. The soundtrack also wholly captures the atmosphere of the era, with a mix of lively, exciting tunes and more emotional, slower-paced ones, giving the audio a '''19/25'''.</span>

| |
| |style="background:#330000;padding:6px"|<span style="font-color:#FFFFFF;font-size:12px;justified"> '''Assassin's Creed III's''' graphics and animations are, simply put, stunning. The draw distance has been greatly improved upon and the visuals in the visuals in the cut scenes are absolutely fantastic. The menus are simple and easy to use, whilst the HUD is minimalist and easily removable, immersing you into the beautiful world of Assassin's Creed's America. But it is the sheer amount of detail on each character that earns this a '''24/25'''.</span>

The story is easily the best in the series so far, and the multiplayer offers an interesting alternative to the other high-action games on the market. But it is not without its flaws, and the sheer size of the game weighs it down with a multitude of glitches and bugs. The AI is also horrendous, and Desmond's story is anti-climactic. It may not be the best '''Assassin's Creed''' yet, but it is a hugely entertaining game, and a strong contender for Game Of The Year.</span>{{-}}<span style="font-color:#FFFFFF;font-size:15px">'''85/100'''</span>
