I've finished my first game in 2024.

Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag on Steam. Took me 39 hours.

I loved the game itself however....the PC version has a lot of issues that Ubisoft wont address even though its widespread and mentioned throughout the support forums and other sites.

+Great story, cast of characters and voice acting
+Naval Combat/Ship building is great

-Glitches can occur such as warping Main character far from ship and bodies of dead characters moving around on the floor
-Kenway's Fleet is constantly loading and requires a mod to fix it
-Access to DLC such as Freedom Cry has been disabled by a glitch - need a third party software to fix
-Starting up the game in certain graphic settings can crash the game or make it unplayable

Despite all the issues I really enjoyed the game and felt like its my most favorite AC game...unfortunately the score took a hit but with the fact that I really enjoyed it, saved the score a bit.

I give ACIV Black Flag a 85 out of 100 - would have been in the 90s if the DLC at least worked.

Disappointed that I couldnt play Freedom Cry but at least I have the standalone version of it.

Hopefully when I do play the console versions in the future, it wont be broken lol
