    I'm super confused, because why does it have so bad user score?

So while i get that it has negative reviews, every game has those, where's all the positive reviews? This game clearly has thousands and thousands of fans, it's very obvious just looking at youtube and steam, so why not come here and fix this bad score that doesn't present what this game actually is? This game came out about 6 years ago, so with 6 years there's only about 500 positive reviews? Seriously? While Cyberpunk got over 17 000 positive reviews in like two months and had way worse launch than Unity. I'm just wondering, if AC Unity fans just don't care about this score and if that's the case, why cyberpunk 2077 fans care so much about that score? It's weird.… Expand

    Honestly, have to say this game doesn't deserve all the hate. I liked the game a lot when I played it. Has some flaws, not a lot though.

    I just finished playing this game and I must say: it's the most underrated Assassin's Creed. After this many years it still feels like a next gen title since great detail has been put into it. The reviews are unfair, give it a try and play for yourselves. This is a true AC game unlike the recent games.

    Underrated game for 2020, the game is completely fixed, the only con is it's story, that could have been better if the studio had the time

    sinceramente la historia es parcialmente buena el parkour es el mejor de la saga y el combate es muy bueno pero la desventaja es que esta muy bugeado en mi caso solo me salieron 3 bugs pero lo demás estuvo bueno mi calificación final es 8.1

    Of course, this game is imperfect, and it has so much negative points, but it is still an incredible game and one of my top 3 favorite Assassin's Creed games. I really don't understand why it received that much hate...

    Uno dei capitoli più belli della saga, peccato per i molti bug riscontrati. Arno grande protagonista. Stealth molto soddisfacente ma si doveva osare di più.

    This game’s animation, graphics, and sound design are amazing. It’s a return to form for the franchise. Dead kings is free and a great continuation of the arch.

    Positives - Graphics, Main character, Side Characters, Map design, Combat, Parkour
    Negatives - Story could be longer, Side missions are not very interesting

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well now,

    I think its testament to the superb high quality of games nowadays that has unleashed this much gamer fury at Ubisofts latest collect-a-thon.
    The bar has been raised pretty high now for these types of games and when its released it had better be ready or every spotted adolescent and his dog will be reviewing the game in anger.

    I have played about halfway through the main mission, yet completed most of the other stuff on offer. It’s good to get the café and social clubs up and running pretty quickly for all the cash you receive – but then you feel a bit more apathetic about collecting 100 Franks from all those damn chests.

    Features:- So far no horse and ship which is a little disappointing. It would be nice to control a carriage like in RDR or the pirate ship in AC3 or AC4. The missions are generally pretty varied and its good not having to do a “follow someone” mission every ten minutes apart.

    Graphics are good and but the frame rate does take a bit of a dive when you are surrounded by guards. - It doesn’t bother me though because I don’t last very long even with the stun/smoke bombs.
    Graphic glitches are part of the game with games like these but it hasn’t put me off the game because it doesn’t hinder you much. It’s quite funny sometimes to see a shopkeepers fruits suspended in mid air. Or the pianist standing on his stool while playing. One thing that is common is the spawning of citizens. They will “drop” in from somewhere and often get caught on a fence or table. As I said it doesn’t hinder the game but it is pretty sloppy. I have made a little community challenge of capturing the best glitch. Needless to say there are a lot of entries.

    The story is okay so far. (I am still on sequence 6). Although it’s not particularly hard to guess where the plot is going. I wonder if Beethoven is going to dedicate a song to Elise? …and seeing the Marquis de Sade in a game is always going to be interesting.
    Unfortunately like Connor before him, Arno’s character isn’t built out so well so far, so it is hard to really care for him, what he is doing, and just the story in general. I am getting pretty pissed at these assassin **** Elise seemed pretty interesting so I am looking forward to those twists.

    Sure, the streets are REAL crowded but it feels like revolutionary France so to hell with it. At night and in some districts there perhaps doesn’t need to be that many people, surely? One thing that gets me is while running away through crowds a French guard pursuer nearly ALWAYS hits me in the head from behind killing me. Where was that kind of accuracy in… erm… practically any historic battle the French have ever fought? Joking aside, there are a few tweaks that could have been done here to align the game a bit tidier with previous titles and even the “Shadows of Mordor”. I like the “old capture and grab” that might have worked a bit better so long as the captives buddy’s don’t just shoot through him to get at me. looking at the level of effort that was put into this game thats is perhaps what I would have expected.

    All in all, it seems quite fun and worth the money I suppose. Worth all the time? Not sure yet, but not being able to open chests at lock pick level three until sequence 9 will probably put a few completionists off due to the sheer time it will take to revisit those chest areas that you could have taken while doing another mission or task etc.

    The Companion app? Well its useful for wasting a few hours while riding to work but that’s about it. It’s a gimmock.

    The multiplayer is a little daft considering its a stealth game and that's exactly not whats going to happen.
    Fun game but as always doesn't live up to the potential becasue of its rushed schedule to get a new AC game out of the door every year before Christmas. sigh.

    This i probebly one of my favorite assassin's creed game the story is decent but it more then makes up for it in the openworld department.
    the gamepplay and the customization is one of my favorite so far the only thing it lacks imo is that one can't fight with the hidden blade.

    Unity it´s a good game, it looks great, the combat , i´s cool; the parkour ,it´s the best of the saga and the story it´s good as well.
    And the new phantom blade it´s really usefull.
    Also the end is really good.
    Nowadays in 2020 it´s a game that you can play perfectly , no bugs

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Великолепная игра. Свою оценку ставлю исходя из версии на 2020 год с бесплатным дополнением "Павшие короли". Очень жаль, что на старте были проблемы с оптимизацией. Ещё хуже, что их отголоски заметны и сейчас. Именно за это я снимаю 1 балл игре.
    Лично я играю на PS4 PRO с boost mode, игра выдает стабильные 30 fps. Однако это решение не оправдывает разработчиков, потому что 1 - оно не доступно на fat и slim версиях и 2 - дыра в оптимизации затыкается поднятием частоты процессора, что ведёт к перегреву. Без boost mode игра работает нестабильно и неиграбельна.
    Касательно сюжета - лично мне понравилась линия Арно и Элизы, но все касающееся истории Франции - трэш. В сюжете огромное количество исторических ошибок, он ужасно однобокий (тамплиеры подстроили революцию, король и представители знатных сословий - жертвы обстоятельств). Большинству игроков побоку, но удручает отношение Ubisoft к собственной истории.
    Геймдизайн и паркур бесподобны, создававшие Париж художники и дизайнеры совершили чудо. Иногда могут происходить ошибки из-за кривой механики входа в здание (когда персонаж лезет вверх, а не в окно, и наоборот), но это мелочи.
    По поводу квестов - они делятся на две категории: с историей и подай-принеси-убей. Однако лично я получал удовольствие даже от примитивных заданий, потому как каждое из них связано с перемещением по городу, а паркур, как я уже сказал, бесподобен.
    В игре есть донат, абсолютно любой игровой предмет можно купить за очки Helix, а очки - за реальные деньги. Безусловно, это недостаток, и Ubisoft за такое дизреспект. Однако у меня не возникало ситуаций, когда денег остро не хватало. Большинство сюжетных квестов неплохо вознаграждают игрока, особенно в бесплатном дополнении, а некоторые однокнопочные дополнительные задания и вовсе дают деньги за пару минут (за контракт на устранение цели можно получить 3500, просто выстрелив с крыши). Тем не менее, снять 1 балл за донат я обязан.

    Итого получаем 8/10. Игра хороша, особенно по скидке. Напоминаю, игра работает идеально только на PS4 PRO в режиме разгона процессора. Если у вас оригинальная PS4, не советую брать эту игру.    … Expand

I bug però non inficiano l'esperienza più di tanto e non sono nulla rispetto alle migliorie di Unity: un sistema di parkour totalmente rimesso a nuovo, un impianto di personalizzazione mai visto (praticamente la stessa meccanica di Odyssey, solo applicata ad un gioco che non snatura la saga) e delle meccaniche stealth modernizzate. È un gioco in tante cose mediocre, basti pensare ad una trama a dei livelli di qualità ai minimi storici o a tutti i tagli nel gameplay a paragone con Black flag e Rogue (il top della saga, senza contare Valhalla in quanto non l'ho giocato). Su questo punto però, si può spezzare una lancia a favore di Ubisoft: al posto di inserire forzatamente un sistema di crafting legato alla caccia ed un mondo in cui navigare più liberamente, gli sviluppatori hanno preferito rispettare l'ambientazione storica in disaccordo con questi elementi… Expand

    An interesting story and time. As we are used to, famous figures from history come by. The only negative thing about this game were the bugs. Fortunately, I was able to look through it to discover everything in this beautiful world with impressive NPC crowds. The world felt really alive. I think this was the last true Assassins game.

What I really enjoyed about this game which is why I gave it a 8 is that the graphics which were best for the time and most importantly the parkour. Best in any Ac game I have played and I loved it

    You can't have a stealth-focused game have a multiplayer focus, it just doesn't work. As demonstrated by Assassin's Creed Unity, the game just feels like it slogs through mission after mission with a lack of cohesion. And does it surprise anyone at this point that the game doesn't look anything like it did at E3? Man, what happened to you Ubisoft?
