Boredom inevitably sets in during these instances, and you might actually be longing for the freedom that the Caribbean Sea has to offer, where the story's strictly limited missions fail to deliver. "Eww! I can see what you had for dinner!"Ĭonsequently, the game can be something of a chore at times, with ACIII's tailing and eavesdropping missions lazily reheated and wheeled out on numerous occasions. Where Assassin's Creed III threw you something of a curveball during its opening chapters, ACIV plods along at a snail's pace, saving its juicy bits until the closing sequences. ACIV's story doesn't really grab you from the off, and takes a long, long time before it actually gets going. Bristol or something? I wasn't really paying attention.
Telling the story of Connor from AC III's grandpa, Edward Kenway, Black Flag's new protagonist is a charismatic, uncompromising pirate with a dream: to own a plot of land and get back to his missus in Wales or England somewhere. And rusk, pig rectum and other mystery pig bits. Like cheap sausages, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is mostly water. Did you hate the sailing bits? Then chances are you won't be overly keen on ACIV. The majority of the game involves sailing all over the bloody place, from the exotic climes of Havana to the lawless pirate town of Nassau. That means all the same frustrations we had with the PlayStation 3 version persist.ĭid you like the naval seafaring bits in Assassin's Creed III? Then you're going to absolutely adore Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. And like those games, Black Flag for PlayStation 4 is the exact same game, but with marginally prettier visuals. Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is one of those games that simultaneously launched for current and next-gen consoles, along with the likes of LEGO Marvel and CoD: Ghosts.
