The only things I like the AC series for is their historical research in terms of buildings, architecture, clothing, and so on. As a history buff I'm hugely impressed how much they get right and don't fall into the Hollywood history trap. Some of those things get a bit streamlined for gameplay or story reasons (or because it's just plain ugly, like how greco-roman statues were pained in vivid colors, but historians agree that the painted marble is so ugly that they actually prefer them to be not painted even in otherwise historically accurate settings), but apart from those, it's all very realistic and how it was at the time. If just the character writing would be anywhere close to that, too, especially for historical persons...

Blue over at Overly Sarcastic Productions says it pretty well here in his videos about AC
