Assassin’s Creed® IV Black Flag™
Easily the best AC game in the franchise! sailing around on your own ship, plundering treasure and boarding enemy ships, while upgrading your ship to fight forts, and become the greatest pirate… so much fun! I could play this over and over again. 10/10 would recommend :)

O I thought I heard the old man say
Leave her, Johnny, leave her!
Tomorrow you will get your pay
And it’s time for us to leave her!
Leave her, Johnny, leave her!
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her!
For the voyage is long and the winds don’t blow
And it’s time for us to leave her!
Oh the wind was foul and the sea ran high
Leave her, Johnny, leave her!
She shipped it green and none went by
And it’s time for us to leave her!
Leave her, Johnny, leave her!
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her!

The RNG of that fish eating the bomb is infuriating on Lv21, annoying bug.

Assassin’s Creed Freedom Cry
This review is for those who actually have played Assassins Creed Black Flag. If you do not have it I suggest you buy it at a sale because the main game will be cheaper than the dlc since the price is only slightly higher but the overall content is more aswell.
I own Assassins Creed on XBox 360 and the game simply is breathtaking with the easy to learn gameplay, the open world features and the good and atmospheric music. The story however was a little short and Freedom Cry as a dlc is of course even shorter. Most players suggest an average gametime of only 4-6 hours. However it took me about 20 Hours to discover all the places unlock everything and tried the minigames like fishing. (They are the same as in Black Flag though)

The very first mission of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’s story DLC Freedom Cry is not only its finest, it’s also an excellent summary of what made the original game good. We’re tasked with retrieving a package from a Templar admiral aboard his ship. To do this we either board the ship, kill the admiral, and take the package or sink the ship and then dive into the wreckage and retrieve the goods. Giving the player options is what the franchise is supposedly all about, so it’s a shame that the rest of it fails to live up to any of what made Black Flag fun.

ABOUT THE DEVELOPER
Hi there! I’m Mathias and I’ve been creating video games since I was a child. I love science, playing music and drawing. So what’s better than creating a video game to do all of this at the same time? I do everything alone because I love every part of it and I’m a curious guy who likes to know how it works! I hope you’ll like it :)

Girls' civilization 2
Before the game launched I had it on my wish-list since it was announced, When the game first launched I tried the Demo, the game used to drop you in the ocean with a chest and it was hard to pick everything up. it was very frustrating that it put me off from buying the game. I tried the Demo again today after it updated, now you start the game locked up. I like the game now and It finally got my interest to buy it. some of the things you can do in the game is better then I hoped for when I first heard about the game.

Fun but optimised by drunk monkeys.
the game itself can be pretty fun, funny a times too when you forget the button to interact and end up punching someone, only to end up on the receiving end of a musket volley.
stuff like having to manage your ammo supplies by adding bullets to magazines or trying not to starve to death gave it a surprising bit of difficulty.
but all this is under one big issue, performance, more specifically the morphing blurs when you move. it isnt at all bad when playing desktop mode but it makes playing in VR a bit of a challenge.

Assassin’s Creed® Rogue
The same year, when AC Unity was released, Ubisoft gave us another Assassin’s Creed game. Rogue completes the North-American Trilogy with AC III and AC IV, and turns as well into the story of Unity.
When you start playing Rogue you could have the feeling to play Black Flag in another setting. It is located during the Seven Years War, and the character we play is Shay Patrick Cormac, a young assassin who is still learning , but also questioning if everything the assassins teach him is the truth. After he was sent on a special mission and made fatefull experience, he decides to leave the Brotherhood of Assassins and finds after that his way to the Order of the Templars. This is the first AC game in which we play a templar most of the time during the story. There aren’t any historical persons, but many other ones you already know from AC III, AC IV and Unity as well.

Did you think Black Flag was the utmost heights that Pirate vs. Ninja combat could climb to? Were you under the (foolish) impression that Ubisoft(in the head) couldn’t further refine the ship combat introduced in AC3 and then perfected in Black Flag? Did you skip this game thinking it’s just ANOTHER reskin of Black Flag?
If you answered yes to any of these questions - then you are REALLY missing out.
The first thing most players say about Rogue is that it’s shorter than Black Flag. That isn’t quite true - Black Flag was a sweeping epic spread out across several years; all leading up to AC3. Rogue is more self-contained and (dare I say it?) streamlined than Black Flag. Take a couple of weeks off from playing Black Flag - you’re likely to forget the story when you start it up again. Rogue is all-involving. The plot is a lot more personal. It does something that no other AC game has done before… and shows the story from the BAD GUY point of view. Not only that, but it does it in a way that makes YOUR character a good guy (well, as good as a guy can be when he’s a member of a top secret murder cult) while still ticking all the bad guy tropes. Best of all, it actually SHOWS the good guys (again, murder cult) the heroes - as villains without MAKING them villains. This whole story - by and large - is a series of misunderstandings. Arrogance. Mistakes and one man (the main character) trying to clean up afterwards.

Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption
I can’t recommend Hero-U and I hate that I can’t. Quest For Glory 1, the VGA remake is a staple of my childhood and it is unavoidable that I’d compare the 2 games. One of the key pieces of Quest For Glory, that my young mind loved, was that unlike a standard RPG where your character just grew - QFG made you think about how to practice and improve the various skills you would need and how to fit that into your journey so that you succeeded in later goals. In fact, it did this much better in my eyes than games such as Skyrim did years later.

Harry Potter meets The Sims and that is a really good thing!
You play a student named Shawn O’Connor in a class for Rogues at a magical university called Hero-U. Taking place on a magic parallel Earth, you have one semester to battle through exams, plotting classmates, private wagers and competition, unlocking secret passages throughout the castle, exploration in the catacombs, and battling and or negotiating with monsters from rats to wraiths. This game is $35 on Steam and worth the dive for anyone who loves immersive adventure gaming, from arguably two of the greatest video game creators in the genre, Lori and Corey Cole.
