Assassins creed 3 was an interesting game.
Let me explain.
You dont start as the "main" character.
Instead, you start as his father, and play as him for around the first 3 hours.
I wouldnt say its a bad thing, because it explains some things to the story, but it was a surprise.
After you finally reach the opening, you can finally play as the main character.
But theres a twist, you play in the "children" days of the main character "Connor".
Fortunatelly the children days arent that long as the opening, so the story is finally gonna open.
I personally liked the story with "Connor" in it, even the character wasnt that bad as some people say.
But still, it isnt near the best in the franchise.
For the modern story, i didnt liked only 2 things.
1 - the ending.
2 - mission with collecting generators or something like that.
Overall, both stories are pretty good, but definetlly not the best.
As for the mechanics/graphics/setting.
I really like the setting and idea of traveling from pure nature to a city.
It was good, but sometimes traveling to a different side of the map for main mission start required couple of minutes of "loading screen/lobby".
It isnt because my pc is bad, it is because there was more little different maps.
It is kind of understandable, because its 2012 game, so i let that one slide a bit.
Controls are good, it was kind of wierd from the start to get used to, but i got this issue with almost every game so its no big deal.
I got used to it pretty quickly.
Parkour was good too, but for me only in the city.
Sometimes it was hard to climb a tree because not every branch worked as i thought it is gonna work.
Maybe its just skill-issue, either way Connors legs had a hard time falling and climbing specific tree over and over again.
What i didnt liked about the mechanics was boat mechanics. Controls werent hard to understand and get used to, but, the combat was awful and i didnt enjoyed it at all.
Especially because i felt like it took hours to just to turn my boat from right to the left.
Shooting at enemy was simple and not that annoying tho.
Graphics were kind of good, and werent hard to run on my low - end pc even with highest settings.
Only wierd thing was eyes in cutscenes, because it looked like they tried to make them more detiled, which failed and just looked super wierd sometimes.
Overall its pretty good game, but the remaster didnt added something very special. So i would buy it definetlly in discount, because 40 euro for 2012 game is i feel, way to much.
8/10
