No. I tried Black Flag and once I got to the ship the game died for me. Can see people liking that, but not why I enjoyed the earlier entries (I hated 3, so at least 4 was better than that.)

Really? The ship battles were by far my favorite part of the game. Probably spend 75% of the time sailing/battling. Different strokes I guess..


For perspective I failed or died in AC1, AC2, AC:B, AC:R less than a dozen times total.  The games made perfect sense as to how to play and win (I admit you could argue they were a bit too easy).

AC4:BF I failed the FIRST sailing mission 15 times before calling it quits. I couldn't come to grips with how to control and battle with the ship.  Can blame that on me, but naval combat is not why I played AC.

AC3 is the among the worst games I played last generation for being utterly broken.  Never on a console (and rarely on a PC) have I played a game with more glitches and issues.  I kept "failing" because the game would freeze or have me fall through the world or just not understand I reached a check point.  Not a hard game, just a broken mess of one.

So, AC4:BF was at least finished, they just took it a direction that I did not personally "get".
