@bennehftw Not counting that I hold AC1 as the absolute worst in the series, you're not really helping your own point with how little of each game you played to begin with.
On that subject, ACIV has some of the most notable additions to the series in terms of how you traverse the world, but really, many of its flaws are arguably the worst since AC1. That includes sloppier melee combat, stagnant and repetitive mission structure in the campaign. What makes ACIV far better still is how much the game opens way for playing at your own pace independant of the main story. AC1 didn't have that.
