The game lacks any revolutionary new features
Combat and exploration are either too easy or too cumbersome
Abstract: The Assassin's Creed series has won and lost many fans with each iteration of the series, some say the games keep getting better and better, while some argue that the games are too similar and don't innovate enough, both opinions are correct in so many wa...
Abstract: As Edward Kenway, you're a man without direction. He's someone who knows what he wants, while also not being quite sure on how to attain it. So he turns from being a privateer to being an outright pirate. Yes, there is a slight difference. A privateer has...
A switch of focus to ocean thrills rather than same old, same old makes Assassin's Creed 4 the shot in the arm this increasingly risk-averse series needed. But it's a stay of execution, not a full rejuvenation.Tags:GamesBest prices todayRetailer Price Del...

The game lacks any revolutionary new features, combat and exploration are either too easy or too cumbersome, the main character isn't particularly memorable
Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is a deep, enjoyable game that does a fine job of combining the tenets of the series with the golden age of piracy. As in the age of Blackbeard, not buying knock-off DVDs down the pub. The world is meticulously crafte...
A great setting and a likeable hero, Strong naval combat and seaborne exploration, Vast range of activities, Superb graphics
Too many activities with too little depth, Core gameplay is feeling tired
Black Flag works as a ripping yarn, more immediate and entertaining than Assassin's Creed 3. While the core gameplay is growing slightly stale, the seaborne action explores new territory and helps keep the franchise afloat. The result is a mostly grippin...
Massive open world, Fresh naval combat, Story, protagonist, and setting are all intriguing
Repetitive tasks, Formulaic gameplay from previous titles, It takes hours for the game to really pick up
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag offers a new take on the genre of piracy, with an original character whose story is refreshingly complex. Ubisoft Montreal managed to squeeze a staggering amount of content into this game. Even if there is little you have...

Coop can get too repetitive, Abstergo office models needs more work, Hair is very unrealistic, Multiplayer takes quite a bit of getting used to, Naval warfare not included
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag provides hours and hours of high quality entertainment. It has the odd moments where the gameplay gets a bit repetitive but thankfully these moments are rare. You can play the game at your own pace but there is a lot to l...
Abstract: Assassin's Creed is a series willing to take risks – whether it's with the story or the gameplay. Yet, as forward-thinking as it has been, it has become the epitome of why gamers dislike sequels; nothing has really changed or evolved since Assassin's Cree...
