Oof...

AC Liberation is a spin off that was ported from a handheld to consoles. Now I won’t be as hash as I want to be on this game but Liberation kinda sucks.

Gameplay wise it plays like 3 for the most part and follows a very forgettable story and cast of characters. Aveline is an assassin in colonial New Orleans, and you follow her story. There honestly isn't much to say about this game so I'm not going to give this game a full review like I usually do, let’s be honest you are here for AC3 not this game. This game has a new feature of changing personas (like she's batman or something) where she goes into changing rooms and can switch between her dressy civilian outfit, slave outfit, and Assassin outfit. Aside for when I'm prompted to, I hardly used this system at all, it just makes sense to use the assassin one most of the time because it’s the best one. This game had a bunch of weird collectibles and unlockables I didn't understand and the money system in this game is super unbalanced. There is a naval trading system in this game, and I think you are expected to get money and stuff you need from that, but I just didn't get it and found it boring, the maps in this game suck too, especially the Bayou map and the story is crazy predictable with a predictable twist. There is no modern-day story, but you see different versions of cutscenes cuz this game plays into the Black Flag idea Ubstergo are selling these stories as video games... anyways yeah so there's that. The highlight of this game is only available on the ps3 version that has a Connor Kenway AI Co-op partner Follow you around for the mission. Which doesn't happen until almost the very end of the game and wasn't super worth it. Overall, not an amazing AC game and if you really wanna enjoy or play this one I suggest spending a little extra and just buying the AC3 remaster that comes with a better version of this game that includes the Conner mission.
5/10
