    This portion of DLC will leave you wondering why they didn't include this ability in the original game... For those who were disappointed in the ending, this is a chance to experience something new and fresh.

    Why all the hate for this DLC?
    It's brilliant! After the averageness of AC3 this DLC really took AC3 back to it's core whilst fulfilling the true potential of a game set in a period of history.
    The real star of this DLC is the environment. It's so interesting to see how the environment has changed. Also people seem to be complaining about it cheapening AC3's story but it makes it REALLY    Why all the hate for this DLC?

    Animal powers are an interesting concept that could be overpowered but aren't.
    My only problem is that you don't get to see that many AC3 characters in this new universe and that whilst Washington is an interesting villain he disappears after the start.
    So this DLC is a decent experiment that pays off big time and takes AC back to it's core gameplay.    … Expand

    The Eagle Flight power is brilliantly daft. The best DLC so far. [May 2013, p.77]

    Storywise, The Betrayal is a shade sillier than The Infamy, and a few moments in its missions are strange to the point of absurdity... If you’re invested in its alternate-universe narrative, though, The Betrayal is an important piece of the puzzle, and its ending hints at something potentially amazing for the final chapter.

    Making games that resemble TV show episodes is not a bad idea. Unfortunately The Tyranny of King Washington is much worse than, say, The Walking Dead (considered to be one of the best episodic games ever). The new DLC - The Betrayal, much like The Infamy before it, is short, boring and gives little place for Connor to use his new skills. After the debut of the last episode, we'll know whether this mini-trilogy is salvageable or not.
