It was honestly never good. A series of open world trash games.

Assassin's Creed went from the best in it's franchise, Black Flag and Rogue, to easily the worst game in the franchise, Unity. Not even AssCreed 3 is as bad as Unity. Syndicate is a polished turd, easily better than Unity, but still shit. As much as I don't like where the series is going origins and odyssey are much better than Unity and Syndicate.

Still no AssCreed set in Japan because Ubisoft fucking hate their fans.

The only thing wrong with Unity were the launch issues and the story. Gameplay wise, it's the peak of the series and the open world was great too.
>But what about Black Flag.
Black Flag was great and had great ship gameplay, but the ground gameplay was mediocre at best and blown out of the water by Unity.

The only reason Unity gets the hate it does is because of the launch optimisation.

We need another Unity style game, but with smaller highly detailed true sandbox levels. Set it in another country with a lot of major cities, and represent each city with a few content-packed hyper-detailed city blocks with reactive and realistic NPCs

Origins was good, good change of pace after the Syndicate trash.

>Gameplay wise, it's the peak of the series

Holy fucking shit I disagree so strongly. The combat is easier than it's ever been but you need increasingly stronger loot to kill the same dumb ass enemies and the amount of money you need to progress is fucking stupid. I wish AssCreed had gotten rid of that stupid paired animation combat system they used in so many of their games - unless the game says you're in 'combat mode' then you can't use defensive options whatsoever and enemies can get at least one free hit on you. That shit made Unity so insufferable.

But my primary complaint is that it's so slow. It's sloooow. Everything is coated in molasses. Every building is now taller than ever but your climbing speed is back to AssCreed 1 slowness where every game past that has increased your climbing speed incrementally because holding up on a stick while you wait to get to the top of a tower is boring as fuck. If there was one thing Syndicate did right it was say, "Fuck realism. Here's a grappling hook."

And it is STILL buggy as shit. I played it six months ago and you still constantly get caught on scenery and have to restart to the last checkpoint, the game STILL crashes, you STILL fall through the fucking world randomly, enemies STILL randomly detect you in the stealth segments even if you're not in their line of sight, not moving, and a room away.

>unity has the best combat in the series
>rushed launch in order to be a current-gen launch title is a disaster
>series' reputation tarnished
>nu-creed does well
>will never go back
Damn....

Lmao if you think the previous games had better combat, it was literally just 'press counter to win'.

The parkour of Unity was vastly superior to the previous games as well, you actually has some control of where you were going (Although still somewhat limited)

But I think you're forgetting an extremely important aspect of Unity that blew the previous games out of the water. Stealth. Not even so much the mechanics of the stealth itself (although it was vastly superior as well) but the fact that it felt like the levels and areas was actually built around it. Making a plan to approach a target and then executing it felt actually rewarding.

Ass Creed was never good. Can't inb4 your own shitty posts you fucking faggot.
