It originally came out at the same time with ACIII but for the PSVita, and yeah, you can tell. Aveline is our first main-line female protagonist, up until Syndicate and she had the potential to be such a good character but feels completely held back by the game itself. I found Liberation to be completely boring and for the most part, uninteresting and I wish that wasn't the case. Even if you are a fan of the series, this one is easily skippable and close to, if not at the bottom of the ranking.

After such a disappointment with AC 3 I was amazed at how good this game was compared to the others. there are some interesting mechanics and the whole changing cloths is a interesting way to gain different abilities. It's a lot of fun for any fan of Assassin's creed.

The characters are very interesting and i love Aveline, but there was no roundup of what happened at the end if she got married, if they both continued to fight the prejudice together and what finally became of her and her mother.

Edit: I did love the costume changing ideas and using the eagle vision to look up all kinds of clues to track people down. The clothing changes makes sense in that the assassination outfit is infamous so you can never lower your notoriety as it's a very clearly dangerous outfit. Especially as a woman in this time period.

Then you have other outfits that have positives and negatives. The Lady outfit you can't parkour in, due to the corset and dress being fairly restrictive, but notoriety goes up slowly and the slave outfit allows all the parkour, however, with less clothing there's less armour to protect yourself so you can get killed much more easily.

My first initial thought when I saw it was an option to change cloths was an eye-rolling thought of "oh yes, of course. First female character as the protagonist and her special ability is dressing up!" but in game, it works really well and a fun thing to do which makes sense in the context of the world and also as, like real assassins, disguising yourself.

J'aime beaucoup le jeu, mais c'est compliqué.
On se retrouve devant un mini-AC2, avec boutiques à acheter, armes, etc...
Le système économique fonctionne très bien.
Le jeu a aussi un gameplay vachement plus fluide, ça fait plaisir.
L'histoire est assez intéressante à suivre (bon après vu que c'est pas un épisode majeur, ça reste assez classique mais ça fonctionne)
Les combats sont bien fichus, et ya de la course dans les arbres du Bayou, et C'EST TELLEMENT MIEUX QUE DANS AC3 sérieux c'est le jour et la nuit.
Mais côté défauts, c'est que ça se plie en 10h environ, en faisant quasiment tout dans le jeu. Et surtou, le jeu est buggé comme un AC ne l'a jamais été.
- des chargements qui plantent
- des changements de costumes qui donnent un écran noir à la sortie de boutique
- les ennemis qui buggent dès qu'ils meurent
- Aveline qui nage en volant
- le jeu qui plante après avoir envoyé ses navires pour marchander.

C'est très très compliqué, mais pour un AC que j'avais jamais fait, j'ai beaucoup aimé.
