Arno destroyed the Assassins and Templars by his sheer incompetence. What an accomplishment.

Combat and stealth were very cool and nice to look at but it a bit janky to play. I mean all the ac games suck, including most parts of the Ezio collection . Atleast Arno has a character arc when compared to Ezio. You’ll have fun with the game, but focus on the main story because most of the side stories suck.

Firstly, this game is beautiful and they really nailed the atmosphere. Arno's voice actor did an incredible job, but I did not like Elise - not the character nor the voice acting.

I usually play games for the stories and to be able to immerse myself in the story. The story wasn't terrible, but I wasn't crazy about it either, and the ending was fairly disappointing (and predictable). That being said, this is my first AC game and I loved being able to parkour everywhere and stabbing the extremist.

Assassin's Creed hasn't never been better than here.
God, it is fucking good. It is unpolished and a bit of a buggy mess, but you have to give it credit, it still looks beautiful today and the scope. Paris feels like a living and breathing sentient being, the NPC's despite their usual repetition have different actions and will interact with each other. The guys at CDProjekt should look back at it and learn on how to develop a city, first of all, open some interiors and second, give your npc's some speck of intelligence.
The gameplay was becoming interesting. It can feel clunky at first, but the mechanic of parkour was never better served. In fact, I love that it gives you gameplay choices: climb up, straight or down; and the whole reason for it is to motivate you to make it look cool and functional, style along substance. Combat is also interesting, not punishing or methodical as a FromSoftware game yet not as easy as AC III or Black Flag. Leveling up with clothes and equipment was also something I liked -again, style along substance- although I despise that most of the cool equipment and fashionable robes are locked behind online missions, specially now.
But is the absolute marvelous story that keeps me playing the game. Yeah, the writing is a bit weak oftentimes, nevertheless the intent of the story is what sets it apart. A love-story for the ages, a romantic and tragic melodrama, which unlike the latter entries isn't afraid to get dirty on the mythos. There is no black and white, it's all a shade of grey, just like the Revolution. The Templars and Assassins aren't reduced to good and bad, it is far more complicated, in fact you are an Assassin trying to avenge a Templar (who woulda thought, that could be possible today), the work is a big piece of subversion. And it's epic story and epic period of history, is only enhanced by the tale of an epic love; Arno -who is my favorite main character in all series- and Elise, might be one of the few relationships in a video game that does feel real, and their chemistry brims up each scene they are together. They are absolutely fascinating characters and I didn't remember that I could like them so much.
Anyways, I still haven't finished this playthrough, my first since 2014, and although I did expect to write a review -seems like my Cyberpunk 2077 review will never come, on my second playthrough I am getting to see the repetition, which is very boring 100H in altogether- this says it almost all. If I do a review, is to give it a ridiculously precise rating.
Au revoir

Me: Alt+F4. Ok, enough for today.
It's like they want me to hate their games.

What this game did wrong is that there's no lore at all, we don't even know who bishop is, the only thing this game does is that it reminds you of existence of the animus an abstergo. This game completely got rid of the lore which is a huge dealbreaker for me because it's what really kept me going throughout the series, I just can't forgive Ubisoft this mistake.
