Idk who down voted, so here's one up vote.

I used to be part of such wagons. As I got older, I lost the time available to be so picky. I started with Unity and had a good time. I've had a good time with each subsequent entry through odyssey (haven't played further yet). The same type of people complaining about RPG AC complain about Ubi's other series, Far Cry. It's ironic that people vehemently argue whether FC3 or 4 is better while both were departures from 2 which was a drastic departure from 1.

It's a game. If you have fun, you're good. If it's compelling enough to keep you playing, they're good. I really enjoyed Odyssey, moresoe than Origins. I do wonder if Origins was a sacrificial game that conditioned me to the RPG style, but I don't have time to revisit it. I know I really enjoyed the sailing warfare mission as Aya so I was certainly happy to find that in Ody. (I'm actually currently 2/3 thru AC4). Still waiting on time for Valhalla and mirage...

PS: whichever version you played between 13 and 18 years old will always be the perfect one. Same goes for music. Or any interest, really.

Yeah. I’m in the same boat. When I got older I changed my perspective. If I don’t enjoy a game, that doesn’t mean it’s a bad game, that just makes it not for me. after I came to that conclusion I went back and tried a whole bunch of games I was unfair too before because I wrote them off. I found myself enjoying a lot more that I initially wrote off

Ps: I hope you enjoy AC4 btw, that and unity & Syndicate were some of my favorites when I first got into the franchise. Valhalla was a lot of fun too (once you get to it)
