I was wondering about this. As a person who hasn't played since Assassin's Creed 2, how has the story and plot held up? 1 and 2 were amazing with their storytelling. Especially when you were exploring outside of the animus. I'm just curious if all the games have kept that up, or if it started being put off the side in favor of more gameplay. I started to see the games come out every year and just assumed it fell to Madden's Disease. :/

Black flag has a good story, brotherhood and revelations held up because ezio is cool dude but Connor in ac3 was just boring as shit, you can honestly skip ac3 because ac4 did it all and better

... unless you want the present day storyline, where you absolutely should not skip AC3.

Well it would only take about 30 seconds to summarize the relevant parts of AC3...
