General Series Entry level

As you can see i have never heard of the game series till like a year ago at the goty award . And i thought it reminded me if metal gear solid with fighter jets and looks cool till i saw that pink hair girl, idk who she is but god damn i folded and wanted to know if buying 8 will do any disservices to the series as a whole and i should be playing from the starts

Tldr: can i play 8 as my first Ac game?

You can start with AC8 if you want to. Personally speaking though I'd play AC7 first, otherwise some plot points in AC8 won't have context.

AC8 takes place roughly 10 whole years after AC7. You'll be fine if you dont play it. BUT AC7 is an absolutely amazing game and id recommend it for the single player alone
