Not one of my favorite Assassin's Creed games (those are Odyssey and Syndicate) but still good. This was a shorter Assassin's Creed than the last few but it FELT long. I did not like how my bird seemed less useful than the past few games. (And having him be shot out of the sky when he actually mattered was pretty stupid.) The unblockable hits were also frustrating because you really weren't given enough time to break counter animation and dodge so you needed to predict attacks. Combat wasn't very fun because of that but maybe that was the point. I also didn't understand map icons. I bought all the maps and they still didn't tell me where all the lost books were. I think I needed to get close enough to them to have them be marked on the map but, sorry, that's just not fun. Tell me where things are and I'll go get them.
