I would gladly pay good money for re-released AC games without any of the modern day Abstergo stuff. Am I the only one? I mean, at the time it was interesting, but the modern day missions now just detract from immersion and are usually crap.

Just me or anyone else?

[Just started replaying Revelations!]

I’m on my fourth replay of black flag, and I wouldn’t change a damn thing about it. I couldn’t even get past the boating walkthrough in Odyssey, and I don’t even remember the abstergo parts of syndicate or origins, so I couldn’t tell you about the “new” ones.

Syndicate followed by Black Flag is my all time favourite.

I’ve tried all the new ones but they’re just too… I dunno, the opposite of focused. Diffused, I guess.

Given the Paris Olympics, I thought about replaying Unity but I did a run through last year.

I still love the fact that after the Notre Dame fire a few years ago, they used the models of the cathedral created for Unity to help them rebuild, because Ubisoft did such a thorough job that theirs was the most detailed schematic available.

Man they really made sailing boring in Odyssey. I don't know how they did it.

I hated black flag because I loved the parkour and stealth aspects but Black Flag put those on a backburner in favor of the ship battling that I wasn’t really into.

(I don’t mean Black Flag is a bad game, I’m just saying it didn’t have what makes an AC game enjoyable to me).
