I do not recommend: Assassin's Creed Mirage

The series died with Desmond. They were building up to something in the present day and then just fucked it all off with no payoff. And then proceeded to not replace it with anything. Where's the ongoing storyline to hook me in to continue playing? 4's playtester double agent was cool for a little bit but not enough to keep me interested and they never got it to a point where I wanted to know more after the credits rolled. The series ended for me there, when they confirmed Desmond was just a brain in a jar now, fuelling abstergo's games.
Even if it would be the best AC of all times I wouldn't get it because I really dislike the protagonist.
The last good AC game I can think of was Brotherhood so this review isn’t exactly a surprise
- Eh, black flag and rogue were pretty fun.
  
  I really enjoyed the naval combat of black flag but it takes like 5 hours to get good. And the modern day parts of the game are even more of a slog
  
  As was origins honestly. Brotherhood is definitely my favourite and the later games feel more generic than true AC games, but they're still good fun.
