While I'm not entirely happy with Unity - I think it was rushed. the embargo and the bugs are evidence of that. I am a fan of the AC series as a whole. AC1 was good, AC2 was great. revelations meh brotherhood good. 3 was ok and 4 was fun.
as was mentioned, it's a series that constantly tries new things. yeah a lot fail but there is a fun enough game in the background that it enables them to experiemnt, try new things, pick out the good parts. i think that's a really good thing, and very few IPs do it. evolution of gameplay is one of the primary reasons I appreciate the series ... (!=cod).
the games are buggy, and frustrating. so what. they are also challenging, fun, and epic. it's a worthy trade off. yes some games have more assassination than others. but for the complaint about the title and it being so loosely connected: it's not called "assassinate people". it's "assassin's creed"... if we were really being picky I would expect it to be a series about a bunch of guys and their faith for the assassin's movement.
wait.that's what it is about.
it's a STORY driven series. it's not COD, it's not minecraft. The story, though crazy at times - connects all of the games. it's interesting and it is specifically about the title of series. I enjoy it. and I think that it's actually one of the more accurate titles. in each game someone who doesn't know the assassin's or templars takes a journey to accepting the assassin's creed.
