So, played through Assassin's Creed and Assassin's Creed II when those games launched a few years back. To be honest, the spat of games that then followed (Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Revelations) I thought I could pass by.
Boy was I surprised when starting up Assassin's Creed III that I have missed some obvious plot points. Whoa, where'd that Piece of Eden come from? John de Lancie is who?!
So back to the animus; grabbed Brotherhood and Revelations as digital downloads and playing through those.
Up to this point, the first three sequences of ACIII are a blast, Brotherhood was a good romp, but Revelations seems to lack that AC narrative flare ...
