Best: AC2 / Brotherhood - captivating characters, modern day much more interesting, THE TRUTH, easy gameplay, awesome plots!

Worst: AC1 - booooooooring ;( Altair NEEDS and DESERVES a remake on 10th anniversary!!

But the combat was better in AC3 and Unity. Feels more challenging, brutal and cinematic.

I agree w/ the assessment of AC1 being pretty lackluster. I'd add Liberation to that list too. Any AC where you have to wear an outfit that doesn't allow you climb, but instead "flirt" your way out of trouble has seriously gone off the track

AC3 Liberation was originally designed for PS Vita, which you could kinda see what those dumb designs were aimed at.

Obviously you're going to get some different responses, but for me, Assassin's Creed II / Brotherhood / Revelations (all 3 games together are basically one big game) was easily the best, followed VERY closely by Assassin's Creed 4 (fantastic game).

The worst is Assassin's Creed Unity BY FAR and it's not even close. It's just an awful game all-around. Bad storytelling, bad game mechanics, terrible game engine, from the clunky / laggy movement / climbing system to a worst of the worst combat system that can only be described as infuriating with the awful camera angles, zooming in so you can't see who's shooting at you, to taking away every neat and enjoyable move / action you've ever acquired and come to love in the AC series' various combat systems.

(Random banter) Unity's horrible fps drops were at least fixed, and if you didn't like the combat system then i'm guessing you were just bad at it. The new movement system was awkward at some times. Even though the climbing/ standing in thin air glitch will never be fixed, you can still revert it by fast travling/ checkpoint restarting. I do agree with you on Black Flag though, that game was great. (Still playing though brotherhood) (Random edit: Unity's movement felt like silk at some points, but only when you actually try. Also AC:Unity is my favorite game in the series only due to its lively open world and flow)

The game ran fine for me from a FPS perspective, but I have very high end hardware.

You guessed incorrectly on Unity's combat. I'm actually pretty solid at the combat despite how badly designed it is, the system is just awful and nowhere near fun. Ubisoft stated publicly they wanted to make it harder. I think many of us were fine with that. The way they went about it was just terrible, though. Take away the majoirty of the moves and options they'd built up in the combat system over the past however many games, zoom the camera in so the player struggles to see what's going on, and give every enemy a firearm. In a nutshell, that's what they did. And it was just a clunky, infuriating result.

What made it worse, (bridging to your next point) is that the engine seemed to have almost an "input lag" type issue which is what I meant in my earlier post about the climbing and movement being clunky. It just wasn't responsive like all the other games were. They fixed a lot of that in Syndicate, but it still had a LITTLE bit of it.

Ya, Black Flag has cemented itself at #2 on my list of best AC games after the Ezio trilogy. Wish they'd done another game on Edward's journey to England. He was such an awesome character.

Nice to hear someone at least enjoyed Unity; outside of yourself I've only ever met one other person who liked it and he admitted to me it was likely because his playstyle is one of never engaging in open combat, preferring to stay 100% stealth at all times. For me, even when compared to games OUTSIDE of the AC series, Unity was one of the worst games I've ever played in 30+ years of gaming. The only thing I felt like they did a nice job on (which they always do in these games) is the world - it was very lifelike, graphics were great, setting was detailed. The story was mediocre with many missed opportunities and they did a poor job of exlpaining certain elements with the POEs, the aforementioned combat was the worst I've ever seen in a game, stealth blending / movement didn't work very well like previous games - very clunky like so much of the game.

I'm very nostalgic towards AC2 and Brotherhood. I loved Rome. Revelations had a fantastic ending but felt "meh" in all the other aspects. AC3 and Black Flag were cool. Neither Liberations nor Unity are as bad as some make them out to be. Rogue is overrated. Syndicate is okay but characters and story are pretty boring. The Chronicles games are pretty cool too though I liked China better than India (haven't played Russia yet).

I played AC1 after AC3 and didn't like it much. I think it's the worst AC. Altair is overrated and the game lacked much of the gameplay/combat/economy systems the later games have. It's actually pretty sad they repeated the boring mini-mission gameplay from AC1 in Syndicate if you think about it.

Brotherhood and IV were the best of all of them for me. Since you haven't played Brotherhood I'd say make plans to obtain that title, it's well worth it.

Black flag is bloody awesome. AC2 was good too. I haven't really played a lot of AC games though.

Was disappointed in Syndicate... I can't find the motivation to play it.. I think its just that its too bright and everything happens in daylight.

I had to force myself to finish syndicate i liked the gameplay but i couldn't get into the story since it's pretty much 2 seperate story lines only the last mission was the only good one from what i can recall

[Etoileforever]

For me, AC2 and AC:brotherhood are the best, worst AC liberation

[CindyNemi]

No one mentioned Bloodlines so I assume it's the real worst game.

EDIT:
Nevermind, I think Altair's Chronicles for the DS is the worst Assassin's Creed game.

[Orge Lambart]

The best is Black Flag... the worst is unity.. The remaining games are pretty much interchangable based upon how you judged them and whether.

Personally I'd say

Black Flag, AC 2, AC Rogue, AC Brotherhood, AC Revlations, AC Freedom Cry, AC Syndicate
AC Liberation, AC 3, AC 1, AC Unity.

Freedom Cry is an add on, so maybe you could remove it.. Liberation was kinda limited based upon the fact it was released on a handheld system..

I haven't played Origins or Odyssey yet to place them on the list..

Another Note,, Black Flag isn't really like your typical AC game, it was like Ubisoft started making a pirate game, and when they decided to scrap the idea, took the content they had, and put it in teh AC universe.. although the game itself is amazing, it really seems like a shot out of left field when you play if after playing the other games..

liberation was held back because it was released on the handheld system and isn't really a full AC game, which is why it's limited...

For me my favorite happens to me the most hated Unity because i loved the story line and not gonna lie i loved Elissa or w/e the templar chicks name was:P

[Garrus]

The best were 1, 2, black flag, rogue, odyssey, and origins
Everything else kinda sucks.

AC Origins > AC Black Flag > AC Brotherhood > AC Odyssey > AC > AC Rogue > AC Unity > AC 2 > AC Revelation > AC Syndicate

Why i choose Origins over Black Flag ? Because origins was a great game to show how the Creed started, AND it has a lot of new features, (Skills, RPG elements, MORE Weapons) And i very like Bayek's relationship with his Family. it just very strong

Why i choose Brotherhood over Odyssey ? Because Brotherhood was an excellent game that focused on the Assassin's Creed. It shows Ezio greatest glory at Rome, It added new feature like Assassins Recruit which really really make you feel like an Assassin. Odyssey was REALLY REALLY GREAT, but it lacks Assassin elements in an Assassin's Creed game

Why i choose AC over Rogue ? Because AC is a really serious game about the Creed, it really shows how bad is the war between Assassin and Templar and Middle Ages, and the dialoges are VERY VERY good, so many wisdoms. While rogue is still a really good game (The idea of an entire game that about an Assassin turned Templar was a great idea by Ubisoft.) It still lacks Assassins stuff in an Assassin's Creed game

Why i choose Unity over AC2 ? Dude, Unity was great ! The world is really REALLY beautiful, The narrative was great, The side quest was great, AND the Assassins elements was really great, Has so many emotional moments, and the story....its... really forced to the ending. But for AC2, i put it lower on the list because its pretty.... boring... i mean Ezio was grea- no, ALL characters is great (Love the hidden gun btw) but the gameplay is really boring

Why i choose Revelation over Syndicate ? Revelation was.... Emotional...The Ezio,Sofia,Brotherhood relationship is felt special. The dialoge in all character is great but ... I dont like constantinople... everything is soooooooo yellow-ish which hurts my eye. BUT Syndicate is good too, i really love Evie and Jacob (Seriously i love them as character.) The story progression is good, and LONDON IS COOL !. but .. what are the reason that makes me put it at the bottom ? The gameplay (Mission objective one, cause i love the open world gameplay) is really boring. Its very straight forward and there is no unique about that, BUT I LIKE THE UNIQUE ASSASSINATION IN THE ASSASSINATION MISSION.

In my list it seems that i said every game "Was Great/Good" because i like all of Assassin's Creed game equally. Except Liberation cause that terrible and i dont want to talk about it. Bye
