| Positive: | Negative: |
| Great visuals | Dull story pieced from random setpieces |
| Fantastic locales inspired by real world sights | Modern world interludes are painfully dull, and pretty dumb |
| Educating on actual history | Simplistic fighting mechanics |
| Interesting, likable characters | Sailing from one place to another gets repetitive |
| Awesome acrobatic game-play | |
| Actually functional stealth | |
|
Ship combat was not as terrible as I thought it would?
|
|
| Pirates are awesome |
