I bought this on a recommendation from a friend. I love the graphics, and am only 15% through the storyline, so I anticipate the game to get a bit harder. Love the sailing sequences, but this one isn't for the kiddos (violence & language).

The storyline is engaging and highly entertaining. The graphic quality is much better than the last in the series. Easy to adapt for beginners also. Only downfall is the having to unlock merchandise.

Great game play. A lot of different things to do like hunting, fishing, exploring, treasure hunting and lots more. You get a ship to battle with against different fleets to destroy and loot for booty.

This game is the first one I've played in a long time that actually had me running back to my console to play more. The idea of sailing the high seas, traveling across the Caribbean is amazing and the accompanying pirate shanties add a depth to the experience I wasn't expecting. Changing weather patterns and cities full of various characters add to the ambiance as well.
The addition of a mobile app that allows players to control their fleet, battle, and amass wealth while on the go adds an interesting and immersive quality to the gameplay I wasn't expecting. If you played the others in the series or even if this is your first foray into the genre, do yourself a favor and get this game.

After Assassins Creed 3, I was a little reluctant to play another Assassins Creed game. But Black Flag brought me back. I really like the story line, and the gameplay is improved over AC3.

Assassin's Creed: Black Flag follows the times of an 18th century Caribbean pirate/assassin. The game has good visuals for the time of it's release and good game mechanics. Similar in feel and visuals to Far Cry 3 and Assassin's Creed 3, the game still has it's own unique character. There are even ship to ship battles.

I am really just getting started, but the storyline appears good as always with the Assassins Creed series. One complaint is the ease with which you can slaughter guards to no end with little or no consequence. Another complaint is when you try to think outside the box to perform a mission, sometimes the game glitches up and you are stuck with a dot on your radar to go to, but nothing is there (this most usually happens during side missions such as assassin contracts), which is a real pain without multiple save games. When I finish the game I will come back and update this review.

This sequel to the series is really great. Different action moves with the new character. Although I still like the Original series. This is still a nice breathe fresher. And the graphics are phenomenal!

Last game was a bit of a disappointment but this game more than makes up for it and really makes you feel like a pirate sailing the Caribbean. A must play for video game lovers

I have been playing the Assassin's Creed games for several years now and I have enjoyed them immensely.
The last two were great, and it seems to me that the controls and gameplay have been improved and streamlined in this game. The sailing and pirating is awesome, the underwater levels are great, and I appreciated the coordinate system of the map... Far less confusing than the other games. But what is going on with the Abstergo stuff? I feel like it really left me hanging!
The only beef I have is that the multiplayer is confusing. I still have no idea who I am supposed to kill when I have reached my target's location.
