    I personally love the game. There isn't much to complain about. It is greatly entertaining and gives you tons of fun missions to do like saving pirates, finding treasure, saving pirates to expand your crew, and even when sailing the open water which people thought would be the boring part there is plenty to do.

I've barely done any of the main mission because there are so many side missions. There is also the usual kick ass combos and animations in battle that are always great. All in all nothing to complain about.… Expand

    This is one of the best games ive ever played. A huge game. The story syncs are not great (as i dont like the hiding from enemys) but the amount of detail and side activities are outstanding. The detail and graphics are superb. The Multiplayer lets this game down along with the £15.99 add on pack which is needed for the 100% completion. This aside, the game is still good enough to recieveThis is one of the best games ive ever played. A huge game.

    It's a shame Freedom Cry doesn't make full use of it's setting, since it is something that's way too little explored in gaming, or other types of media. Degrading the fates of the slaves to mere currency for equipment upgrades is a missed opportunity in video game story telling. [Feb 2014]

    In terms of size and scope, Freedom Cry is paltry compared to the main adventure of Black Flag. But its story is easily the most powerful, poignant tale we’ve seen from the Assassin’s Creed universe, and that alone makes this story DLC worth checking out.

    For a story about breaking the chains of your fellow men, this add-on's gameplay mechanics remain resolutely locked up to the Assassin's Creed framework. Its strong, self-contained narrative is Freedom Cry's greatest asset, but the tale struggles under the weight of its over-familiar gameplay.
