    Будем честны отдельной игрой её назвать трудно это больше похоже на DLC для AC4. Хоть история не самая плохая, но её невозможно считать отдельной игрой.

    Not a bad game but its kinda repetitive and short. But the story itself is quite interesting, sadly probably the only thing why you should play it.

    I think this is the sleeper AC game, a very good take on Assassins vs Templars.
    Story wise is Good, not great.
    Gameplay and setting is pretty pumch the same as AC 3.

    But the cherry on top was the Portuguese sequence, always cool to see my country in a game i love haha

    If you like AC: Black Flag, you will probably enjoy AC: Rogue, too, as those two games are fairly similar. However, be prepared that the game feels outdated today (it is basically a PS3/X360 gen release).

    Black Flag but you are a Templar and in North Atlantic. Worth a play if you liked Black Flag.

Pero no es así, el personaje simplemente cambia de bando y ya está, no hay dilemas, no hay dudas, las escenas de lucha son simples. O sea, no me invitan a llorar, ni a sentir empatía por el protagonista, no siento el drama que por ejemplo si sentí cuando Altair peleó contra su maestro, o cuando Haytham luchó contra su hijo Connor. Lo más dramático fue ver como Shay mataba al padre de Arno. Como ya dije, parece que solo cambia de bando y ya esta.
    Por otro lado, si bien es un juego que funciona bien, también es verdad es porque es una copia del anterior.
    Es un juego que realmente me decepcionó porque cuando vi el tráiler me encantó, pero al jugarlo fue decepcionante.

    This could of easily just been black flag DLC...slap in the face cash grab and not worth the full retail asking price. Development of this game was paid for by black flag purchases so why is this game full retail price when the developed engine was already paid for in the previous title? I'll tell you kids why....GREED...and this industry is getting full of it.

    AC: Rogue is just a fast cash grab. Take a cool story concept of playing a Templar, and then copy/paste everything from Black lag, with less polish. This is what Rogue is. The story is short, the gameplay is okay, and attention to detail is poor. Even the Templar HQ, the place where all your tresures are is really poorly done. New York is done in a hurry, without any meaningful concept.AC: Rogue is just a fast cash grab.

    It's one of the worst AC's so far. It's a Frankenstein made of previous games, mainly of third part (AC3) All moves are raw, not polished. Some moves were completely removed, some were made simpler and more unpredictable. Gameplay is the worst of this part. The character moves so unsmooth and glitchy, that it's painful to look at him.

    And I don't feel that graphics downgrade was so necessary. After Blag flag this looks really poor. Well this part is really a white crown, full of ambiguous changes.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. MAJOR SPOILERS regarding the naval missions starting with mission 14 up to the last (33rd mission)
    I did not count the time spent for the first 14 missions and the most stupid smartphone in-game mini-game (secure the route from treacherous to safe, to not waste your ship and your precious gameplay time).
    Missions 14 -> 27 will take 18 hrs. and 5 min. REAL TIME.
    Mission 28 -> 33 will take 19 hrs. and 9 min. REAL TIME AFTER YOU FINISHED THE GAME.
    ...all of this in order to unlock "Altair's Sword", a stillborn weapon. More than 40 (forty!!!) REAL TIME hours.
    The "creature" (he/she who conceived this, cannot be called a human being) who thought this is FUN, is either a f***ing idiot or an evil-sadomasochistic psychologist who doesn't give one flying f*ck on player's TIME, mind, patience and MONEY.
    Shay has too many unused rope darts in his pouch.

    I was tuned in sceptically from the very beginning. As for me, Shay's character was brutal and timid at the same time. Nothing new in game mechanics. Dead characters, dead NPCs and the open world. It's not the level of 2015 year. Miserable parody of AC IV: Black Flag. Nevertheless, I loved the final scene in France.

    В воспоминаниях мы играем вроде за тамплиеров, но по ощущениям было будто мы остались Ассассином, нас просто называют по другому. Конфликт из-за которого ГГ покинул братство решался одноминутным разговором, что по итогу создает ощущение будто все действующие лица игры впутанные в этот конфликт имеют проблемы с умственной работой.
    Как возможность поиграть ещё раз в Black Flag - неплохо, как самостоятельная игра - крайне не обязательно с сюжетной точки зрения.

    Rogue barely passes as a full game. More like a longer DLC of Black Flag.

    As a big fan of Assassin's Creed, I have a lot of gripe about this game. First of all, Rogue is a complete carbon copy of Black Flag in terms of gameplay, weapons, mission layouts, even a lot of the setting. I'm always ready for some sort of innovation whenever I play a new MAIN entry in the series, but Rogue

    As a big fan of Assassin's Creed, I have a lot of gripe about this game. First of all, Rogue is a complete carbon copy of Black Flag in terms of gameplay, weapons, mission layouts, even a lot of the setting. I'm always ready for some sort of innovation whenever I play a new MAIN entry in the series, but Rogue simply feels like a longer DLC.

    I have a huge problem with the story progression in Rogue. Ever since the Desmond was gone, you're put into the shoes of the protagonist. I personally don't prefer this at all. I like controlling the "subjects" in Assassins Creed. Desmond Miles was a very interesting character. I'd much prefer if the devs had created a new protagonist. The problem with putting the players in the shoes of the "subject", is that the protagonist becomes mute. There are countless instances in Abstergo Entertainment where I am spoken to, and I want to reply, but I obviously can't. With an actual character, even though I can't speak for them, at least there's conversation, and it's not this awkward one sided conversation. It's really unfortunate, because the story in Abstergo Entertainment is getting interesting. The Templars trying to convert you to their order and everything. It's all intriguing. But it's like I have no say in it. It's like the game just puts you on this roller coaster ride, where you can only watch. The devs REALLY, REALLY need to create a subject 18. Ditch the first person protagonist crap! It just doesn't suit the narrative of Assassin's Creed!

    I actually like the story behind Rogue. And Shay Cormac starts off as a easily hate-able character, into a very likeable character through the tough decisions he had to make. This is the first game where you get to control the Assassin that betrays the Brotherhood. And the reason was completely understandable. Suddenly, I don't know who I'm rooting for, Assassins or Templars. Though the game never explains why Shay was put on that mission to wipe out an entire city. I guess the Assassin leaders did not know that taking the artifact would cause that, but they were also not remorseful after the fact. It made me question the Assassins, which was a plot twist I liked.

    And one more thing that absolutely irks me. Why would they re-introduce Adwale, then kill him off in the most undignified way possible? This is the man who freed hundreds of slaves. A man who has the most moral values among any other character. He's honorable as ****. Why would they do this. They literally revealed him to be an older assassin, then barely shows up for more than a few scenes, then just gets killed. It's very, VERY anti climatic. Even if he had to die, at least make it more epic...

    Besides the story, the gameplay and pretty much everything besides some snowy mountains, is the SAME. The experience just felt WAY too repetitive, especially for the fact that I JUST finished Black Flag. They should've just made this a DLC, maybe upped the price more. This is NOT a new Assassins Creed experience.

AC4'ü bitirdikten sonra Rogue oynamaya başladım ve sekans sayısı az diye başta hikayeyi ilerleteyim, oyun özgür dolaşma imkanı verdiği zaman yan etkinliklere falan girişirim dedim. Şunu belirteyim; oyun AC4'ün çok buglı bi DLCsi gibi. (sinematikte bi karakter ile konuşuyoruz, ekranda öteki karakter var ve yanında biraz boşluk var sanki birisi varmış gibi. Biz nereden konuşuyoz acaba diyorum. Sinematik bitince bizim karakter yerde ölmüş bir halde yatıyor.) Hikayesi iyi başlıyor, oynanışı da zaten AC4'ün aynısı. 2. Sekansın sonuna kadar hikayesi güzel gidiyor, buglı olsada güzel bir AC oynayacağımı düşünüyorum. 2. Sekansın sonunda hikaye bir anda ergenleşiyor ve oyunu silip, silmeme arasında bırakıyor beni. Hikaye de ana karakteri destekler biçimde ilerliyor ve klişeleşiyor. Ana hikayayi bir an önce bitirmek için rushladım. Kötü yazılmış, çok kopuk ve leş gibi sonu olan bir hikayesi var. Haytham hariç düzgün yazılmış karakter de yok oyunda. Hakkını yemek istemem oyunun son boss fightı güzeldi. 7 yıl savaşı, fransızlar ve ingilizleri oyuna eklememişler. Hikaye bitince dünyayı açayım, gemimi kasayım, legendary gemi fightına gireyim diye 30dk falan oynadım. Bir şehri aldım ama şehirdeki dükkanlar açılmadı. Herhalde başka bişey yapacağız diye dükkanın yanına gittim ve oyun benden az önce aldığım şehri tekrardan almamı istiyor. Sonrasında sildim oyunu. 4/10 Expand

    Map design and its structures give you an opportunity to make a fine and smooth parkour, one of the best in the franchise to be honest. Unfortunately even with the great parkour system it can't be called to be one of the good AC games. Most of the gameplay elements can be recognized from Black Flag immediately because they just basically recycled everything from that to this game.

It proves how Ubisoft is lazy and wants to milk more money from the franchise with the least effort possible.

    While the story is unique it is still easily predicted, a lot of characters are just there and have zero impact on the story. It's short and feels like an unfinished essay from a student who just made it last night.

    Map is large and has many repetitive locations. Naval fights or sword fights are not enjoyable but rather tiring and if you smash the same buttons repeatedly you will most likely win. Stealth thankfully is fun (especially with that parkour system).

    The game did not catch much attention not because of the story or its setting but because how the progress is stagnated, uncreative and copied.

    There's no polishing this turd. The absolute WORST of the AC games. Incoherent controls, incessant, dreary, grindy, Pavlovian set pieces, you have to complete. The player is robbed of the opportunity to play the game freely and on their own terms. You could say this game plays you, not the other way around.

    To add to the misery are bugs, something I've rarely come across in this series . Its exacerbated further by poor streamlining/porting for the PC. Even on a decent rig, this thing can be laggy and stuttery, at times.

    I believe this monstrosity was rushed through the development cycle, in a matter of months. A shame, in a way, with more thought, development time, testing and a less controlling outlook, this could have worked, Suffice to say, not a patch on its contemporary, Unity, which I genuinely enjoyed.
