I treated myself to AC III back in November of 2012 . A 1-night rental from Redbox - a small Birthday treat to myself that day. I remember being excited by the prospect of a game set during the Revolutionary War - a period that is greatly underrepresented in games.

I was as unimpressed as I was returning to the game 10 years later. I picked this back up after Ubisoft threatened to close the Xbox 360 servers. Seemed like a good excuse to revisit. Satan help you, if you decide to 100 sync this game. The mission parameters are agonizing at times.

The general direction and design of AC 3 is often confusing and unintuitive. I had a little fun jumping through trees and the alternate history DLC is actually pretty damn good.
