Is Assassin's Creed worth playing?

Outside of how repetitive the first one is. Its actually imo a very slept on series. The multiplayer is fun as hell.

Played the first and hated it. I'm one of those people that HAS to beat a game once I start it. Very rarely do I hate a game do much I can't finish.

AC was that game. Game was mind numbingly repetitive.

I've heard the rest are better but I can't shake how much I hated the first to give them a chance.

Yes, but barely. The assassinations in the first game are the best in the series in my opinion. Its just all the crap you got to do in between that sucks. The assassinations allow for player creativity and are well thought out (they almost feel like art). After each one you feel like you accomplished something and did something meaningful (story wise). This is diminished in the other AC games where you're just killing people who you don't know much about and in relatively scripted ways.

The overall story and atmosphere was the best in part one. The repetitiveness and the unnecessary traveling just really dragged it down.

Its one of those games thats best played when you have down time. You know like a rainy day or if you're recovering from an injury. I started playing when I tore my ankle up.

I was on crutches hopping around visualizing myself scaling buildings

I couldn't even fukkn walk right and I wanted to climb buildings. Its one of those games, like saints row and GTA that will totally fukk up your reality.

You just look at life as a video game every time you stop playing. I would be walking around campus looking at rooftops like

AC2 was the only one I liked.

The 1st was so boring to me I couldnt keep playing. 2 was amazing to me. Brotherhood...I got bored with it too because it was so similar to 2 to me. Havent tried Revelations yet because of how I felt about Brotherhood.
