Another Review of Assassins Creed III
.jpg){kind=link}
I have to admit that I wasn't very excited for Assassins Creed to come out this last October. I absolutely hated the first Assassins Creed, however, I fell madly in love with the Ezio Trilogy. Naturally, I was saddened when I heard that Ezio's story would end, but at least one of my favorite franchises would continue. Regardless, as an Assassins Creed lover, I would play III none the less.
Much of why I love this franchise so much is because of the storyline and the gameplay, but also because of the chracter development. As a player you feel as if you know Ezio. Sadly, as I continue to play through III, I just can't seem to attach myself to either Connor nor Haythem.
Here I am, roughly 50% through the game, and I just can't seem to finish it. Which if you know me, which you don't, I usualy finish games within days. If you've ever seen the show "Big Bang Theory" where the girl across the hall, Penny, gets addicted to video games-- completly disheveled, up all night and on the edge of crazy until she finishes the game-- that's me. Sad, but true. I promise I return to normal when I finish the game. Anyway, Assassins Creed III has incredible game play, beautiful visuals, and a decent storyline -- and yet, I can't seem to get into it. The story, though good, hasn't captivated me the same way that the Ezio trilogy has. There have been moments where I have been so into the game, and then there seems to be a lull in between many of these great moments. There isn't a streamline, intense intrigue of gameplay.
My biggest problem with the game is the traveling. My god, why do I need to travel all the way to New York from Boston to have a small conversation with a character and then go ALL THE WAY back to New York on horseback? You would think if Ubisoft decided to do this, multiple times I might add, they would have made it easier to travel back and forth.
With that said, it's not a horrible game, it's well done with a few hiccups on the way. I of course, will finish it, for the main arc of the story if anything. When I do, I'll be sure to give my lasting impression! Hopefully it will be better as a cohesive whole.
