Having played the entire series, I can confidently say this is the worst Assassin's Creed game ever. It completely diverges from previous games in the series and while I have nothing against a game doing that, in this case it simply doesn't work. The storyline is the most aimless, pointless, and redundant one I have ever seen. I'm still playing it - why, I don't know - and hoping it gets better. I typically finish AC games within a month between work and personal life, but I have been at this since its release week because I can't sit down with it more than an hour at a time with how boring it is.
