"...It is merely an observation of the nature of reality. To say that nothing is true, is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted, is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic."

Looking beyond nostalgia, Assassin's Creed: Revelations is an awesome game even today. The music, sounds, graphics and level design are all beautiful and complement each other. The combat is simple yet glorious, the gameplay itself is varied, challenging and always engaging. In typical open-world fashion, there's tons of things to do here apart from the main story, recruit assassins, collectathons, reclaim and defend dens, treasures to find, viewpoints to synchronize etc.

This game truly does make you feel like an assassin. I'm glad I got to relive a part of my good ol' days from 2012; Ezio is an icon, and this final chapter of his story is fantastic. It even sets up the excitement for Assassin's Creed III after the ending really well.

Ubisoft launcher is still a hassle though.

I love Assassin's Creed games since childhood!
This one also one of the best game i have played.

Assassin's Creed Revelations, follows the story from AC1, AC2 and Brotherhood. We are once again playing with Ezio Auditore and Desmond Miles. Most of the gameplay and progression is similar with previous games. We follow main quests to progress story, side quests, achievements , challenges to unlock more gear, health or abilities. War between Templars and Assassins are focused on gathering some special artifacts and unlocking their secrets.
Played in 2024 with win 10x 64-Rtx 4080, with all achievements of ubisoft, %100 sync on everything.

++Story/Setting: I am making the same suggesstion I made on all previous titles, read. If you read the books, extra information, landmarks, etc it has a good story. Otherwise you will be killing people with bombs and stabbing them for no reason. Try to read everything that is skipabble and you will have purpose. Now you can strike with righteous intent to the guards on rooftops and impress rogues with a tranquil smile on your face.

+++ I have to mention if you played the games before, Ezio's arc really impresses. From some boy with vengeance to and old master seeking wisdom, both dialagues, cutscenes and the end choice for Ezio is perfect. He really is the "mentor"

+Controls: This time I've used Logitech F710 Controller and after getting some used to, it was ok. Other than some bluetooth troubles this control scheme fits. It tires my fingers after a while but seems better than keyboard mouse. (this may be expected since this game has console roots)

++Gameplay: We have same options and some more. None of the good working combinations are changed. You can throw knives, bombs, can use crossbow or hand gun, lots of dagger, swords, heavy weapons are available. Dodging and some new moves with hookblade is taught you at the beginning. Powerful enemies require more variation this time and although it's not hard if you are careless it can be a challange. Assassin guild and their mini game can be time consuming but helps you a lot.
I again did all side missions /extras on first available free phase and money again, stopped being a problem. Quickly recruit all assassins, complete master assassin quests and city will be safe. I also realized you do not need to kill guards as much as previous games. You can really play like an assassin this time. Though even if you go for a murder spree, only danger is Templar attack to your dens, which master assassins can prevent.
+ Challenges and achievements are clear and understandable. I didn't use a GUIDE or walkthrough for anything.

+Technical : You have to play at 60hz for some stuff to not break. Other than that, 21:9 is ok, you can alt-tab, no crashes.

In short , if you played the previous ones, you should definetely play this one. Since most of the + coming from continuity don't start into this franchise with this imo. Either start from AC1 or jump to much newer ones.

Tip: In order to play The Lost Archive follow this guide-> https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3208375262 Thanks to Vitharr.

A level to get the perfect armor, there have a puzzle you need to grab a stick when you jump. It just never going to let the character grab it. What the ♥♥♥♥ that this kind of stupid issue never going to fix. And most important this game will auto quit, without any notice and message. Its a crap even a decade for this stupid Ubisoft to fix this problem.

Multiple crashes without notice, which was annoying but still possible to play if I come back to the game. I quit when my saved game can't be loaded and crashes the game. Now, my only option is to start from the beginning, since no previous saves are available. Very disappointed!

OLD BUT GOLD, THE STORY AND GAME PLAY IS SO GOOD!!

The story and the combat system was perfect!

Great game, but need desmond's journey fixed.

very good
