Assassin's Creed IV - 1st two sequences

Assassin’s Creed IV

I’ve played Assassin’s Creed 2, Brotherhood, Revelations and now Assassins’ Creed IV. Ever since I started, I could not help but abbreviate the game to Ass Creed. It flows, is funny, and makes me feel a strange comfort in my stomach.

I skipped 3, primarily because it was seriously panned and I was pretty burnt out on the whole series. I saw Ass Creed IV for $30 bucks on my XBO (and had no XBO games for the first month I had it) so I thought, “Why not?”


Ummm, so this is a videogame within a videogame?


With that viewpoint of no expectations, and really nothing to lose, I am able to look at Ass Creed as it should be, mindless, kind of dopey, fun. That’s what it is. I don’t have this boner that everyone seems to have for pirates, but I definitely like the ship faring aspect as well as the huge map. Yet again, all of the cities look strikingly like Florence, Istanbul or probably any other city that exists in the world. So I have played maybe the 1st couple of sequences, haven’t really dug in, but I’m definitely enjoying the ride. One thing though, I have NO idea what the story is about cause I keep checking twitter while I’m playing the damn game. I don’t know if that’s a bigger indictment of me or the game.
