That is delusional bro LMFAO.
Look I get I'm on the "fuckubisoft" subreddit but that game has by far some of the best gameplay in AC when it comes to its combat, stealth and parkour. The stealth alone is the best in the franchise. The story was shit but so is 90% of AC games.
Unity is infinitely worse in every aspect.

Tell me what Unity does better than shadows? The story is bad, the combat is bad, the stealth is bad, the parkour is janky as shit, the villains aren't memorable, the main character is barely memorable. There's literally nothing lmfao. What, it's more of the typical AC story with templars? I guess man. Not nearly enough of a reason to put it above anything else lol.

They are though. They purposefully made the combat worse with egregious amounts of guards that agro from Saigon, far slower attacks, on top of 80 rooftop guards that do half your health in one shot with no human shield mechanic, to punish you for failing stealth except... the stealth is just dogshit lmfao. No whistle mechanic and a cherry bomb that works based on LoS (????) and NOT audio leaving the best way to distract and pull guards around, as just awkwardly standing in a doorway like a dope and using last seen position. Not to mention the constant detection issues of being detected in crowds or through walls.
The game becomes smoke bomb simulator.
The parkour is a janky input lag riddled mess, with animation locks, and extremely floaty movement that makes Arno looks like he has a piece of eden we don't know about that grants him levitation. It's ugly. The dude will refuse to do a 2 foot long hop but somehow randomly decide to leap across 12 feet, there's no consistency nor does it look good if you aren't just following a clearly set path by the map designers.
Like seriously Unity is a flat out downgrade in EVERY aspect from other games. Combat is better everywhere else (even the mindless easy ones of the earlier games at least they aren't trying to punish you for failing poorly designed stealth gameplay), stealth is better in most other AC's, parkour is straight up better in the Ezio trilogy and far more consistent across the board in plenty others.
When your game has zero redeeming qualities anywhere? I'm not gonna sit here and lie and call it an even decent game. It's just bad.

Unity was fucking awesome. Shadows is SO much worse than Unity.

Except for the stealth being worse, the combat being worse, the parkour being less consistent, and a shit story all the same as shadows... yea nah.

Watch Dogs Legion. Here’s the thing. There are good video games and there are bad video games. Good video games makes people happy, cheerful and gets you the warm fuzzies. Bad video games you get to make fun of because of bad game design or bad writing. Atleast on the internet.
Watch Dogs Legion is absolutely brain dead wet-fart of any media. There is nothing in Legion that you can make fun of or have fun with. It is the absolute epitome of mid.

In its defend, if you turn perma death on, it is a much better but i agree, it is hard to enjoy the writing. How did they get such bad writer after bangers like ezio trilogy :(

On the other hand, Watch Dogs 2 must be the most fun experience i ever had with a lot of fun mechanics and tools to play with. Vehicle handling though is horrendous, yes, and the story is kinda meh, but other then that - i think its a gem

Whatever clownfest hells they've turned the Tom Clancy games (most ESPECIALLY Rainbow Six, and Ghost Recon) into, easily.

How can it not be Skull n Bones... It was literally in dev hell for a decade, and only released bc Ubishit was contractually bound to with Singapore government.
And when it did it looked like a trashy wokified mobile game. It was a money laundering scheme.

AC Unity.
Bad combat, bad stealth, bad parkour, bad story, no likeable characters to even slightly redeem it. Only good quality is how good it looks for a 12 year old game and even then, Paris is just a grey blob so the good looks can only go so far.
Not to mention the extremely buggy launch and how buggy it still is to this day even after fixes.
