I like the stealth and climbing of unity over black flag, but the ship combat in ac black flag saves the overall combat for me. In addition, black flags story got me more engaged than unity’s. I can’t really decide
Strong disagree. Takes everyone ive seen play it 5 attempts to enter any given window. And smokebombs≠stealth. Arno will ALWAYS get caught if you dont use smokebombs at some point in the mission; if you cant be bold or feel quick without a hazy screen, thats trash.
I honestly love both for its different reasons. Black Flag I love for its protagonist, story, setting, and it variety of activities and Unity for its parkour, stealth, and setting
This was a matchup where I would actually be totally happy with either game being the winner, they’re both excellent for the most part but like comparing apples and oranges in some ways
Pretty good video as always, I recommend you for future videos on making a section about main missions design and variety. In Unity vs Black Flag case, I dont mine that much the tailing missions but I admit the game really abuse of them, Unity in my opinion have more variety of main missions even when not of all of them are stellar in design.
I replayed both a few months back and loved UNITY more than BLACK FLAG, the parkour, gameplay and maybe the story a little bit did it for me. Unity on top
I personally can't choose, they are both completely different type of games. Just the combat alone is enough to make me love them both. Like maybe sometimes i wanna use two swords in black flag, and sometimes i like parrying in unity. Plus the customization in Unity is sooooooooooo good
Sure the combat in Assassin's Creed Black Flag was too easy, but holy moly does it make you feel like a total badass because of the absurd amount of fast paced takedown animations.
I remember my friend had Black Flag and I used to watch him play it all the time. I wanted that game so bad and I never chose to play every time he offered bc I wanted to experience on my own . Then when I finally got it I stay up in the summer all day playing that game . I love it also
Black Flag was my first AC game and I played it with my father so it holds a very special place in my heart. i played BF then Ezio Trilogy, 3, Unity, Syndicate, and the RPG's. Black Flag still stands as my favorite, closely followed by 2
So I’ve played both and both are special in their own way, one is a pirates life at sea with a huge open world with countless islands to explore. While Unity allows you to to enter every single building yes almost every building, being an interior designer i really enjoyed how well designed and how accurate the representation of the the era is. (Just my opinion)
Thanks for making this. I've had both games on my Xbox for like 6 years (I think it came with the console or something). Just now choosing which to play first. I think ill go with Unity first as 18th century France sounds cool and I I'd rather have the cleaner animations + urban combat in Paris sounds fun.
Balck flag is just so much fun.. it's one of the few games I play every year.. even if just to do the story quick... yet most of the time I just spend time being a pirate
I'm a hardcore fan of both unity & black flag. But if i had to pick only one I'd choose unity any day cuz the parkour & stealth is more satisfying. Also cuz the graphics are great & i love unity's paris!
Black Flag without question for me. That’s the game that I gave AC one more chance with after not being able to get into the series. This game helped me fall in love with the rest of them (except Odyssey and Valhalla).
The story of Unity was not my cup of tea, so I liked AC4 more by the story. Talking about parkour and stealth, AC4 is really nice but is nothing in front of Unity. Also the naval combat is a huge point for me when comparing these games. oof too hard to choose one!
When I was younger I didn’t really like ac black flag a lot, but back then I also didn’t really like pirates. Since I recently replayed black flag I now really like the story. But the co-op and setting of ac unity is so fun. Co-op if it was polished it would be amazing. I also really like the mayan assassin’s in black flag. Now that I’ve played black flag, freedom cry and rogue i’m kind of burnt out of the naval combat. So for me ac unity wins by not a huge amount. Unity would crush if there was more effort put in to the story and polished all of it. IMO respect every ones opinion. Keep up the good work my mentor Assassin.
I used to disregard AC4 because of its emphasis on naval exploration and combat, but finally played it during the pandemic and enjoyed it. It's not my favorite AC game, but I'm glad I can finally say it's a good game instead of downright ignoring it. Unity is my preference as I thought Paris was a joy to run around in. I remember that game clicking for me and couldn't believe people hated it. I even thought the present stuff was interesting running around WW2 and doing those rifts where it felt like an escape room type challenge. It's disappointing that the game got a bad rap where Ubisoft changed course, but I grew to appreciate the new games too. I guess I'm not a hard person to please. I kind of enjoy all the games really and just like some more than others.
I think Unity suffered from the hype leading up to the release, the expectations were set so high from all the trailers and gameplay demos. The game felt like it was missing that unique touch, which was exemplified by the start menu. When you’ve just loaded up an ac game that menu should set the tone for what’s to come, revelations, black flag and Valhalla are probably my favourite ones. While most people thought black flag would be the worst game in the series at that point in time (kinda strange looking back it had similar expectations to odyssey lol) but after people played it, it surprised them how good gameplay and narrative wise it was. For me Black Flag is top 3 and Unity is probably mid tier out of the AC series, but that is my opinion.
As someone who has 200+ hours of gameplay on these two games on steam. I can't possibly decide the winner they both really awesome time killers in their own way
It’s really inconsistent as well. Why can he jump this 20 foot gap but not this 15 feet one? Why can he jump up to this ledge but can’t jump up to this shorter one? Why does he auto swing on this rope but lands on this one instead?
I would say other wise because unity has better parkour and graphics it really blew me off when this game released in 2015 but it's a personal opinion and I just don't hang with the graphics of black flag.
MasterAssassin did you know that there's a dlc for AC black flag called Aveline dlc? I never played it and I doubt you did so you can make a video about it.
for the records of my ideal of view, there are some points that good and bad for these both games: good: story: 1. edward story is not about his greed for riches, in truth he just want to make money to which point that can have support his life, wife and daughter. thing is not just want he has, he want the best thing in life that make him not to look poor or get him sick, if i remember correctly edward childhood was pretty tragic, not just poor but also loose people he loved for ( may be his parents or brothers or sisters, i dont know, if i'm wrong then sorry ) 2. may be arnold story is about just for revenged and love elise but thing of this way, he lost both father and adopt father which lead him only has elise, who is both childhood lover and sister. they both grew up and have wonderful time after his father murdered infront of his eyes. so yeah when his adopt father died, he considered him not just like his father but also his guidance to his adulthood. in other words, they are his second family. of course he can be arrogant and his purpose when he joined the assassin just for revenge, but if you were him and put in that situation, will you want to revenge and bring justice for the one you loved? more than that, when he lose elise too, he realised that he didnt have any one he cared and loved for but only the assassin, it will be perfect sense that the creed is he only family left, he decided to grow up and do what he can to protect this family. gameplay and graphics: 1. edward has some major point when compare to arnold: a ship which has a lot of fire power, 2 family on his side ( the crew and the assassins ). nice amount of parkour and great graphic of texture. 2. arnold has a lot of kind of gears, skills, and a home which are both a cafe and personal mansion, realistic npcs, perfect parkour like the real life one and true history of world monuments. bad: 1. edward may be has a great story but it lacks details like the after he joined the British assassin, parkour may look great but its not realistic, too easy gameplay and finally is lack of arsenal not like arnold. 2. arnold story is too short, a lot of annoying and some funny bugs when climb and running parkour, npcs are also bug as hell, and finally is combat a little bit hard, like a bug when fighting belec it has annoy glitch which very hard for pass the memory. that is all of my view, so if you see something wrong, feel free to comment. about my view which game is better then i will say is neither, which both are good and bad of its own, its matter of your perspective so dont judge me.
It was such a cool deal getting to download both these games for free when buying the Xbox One. That's how I was introduced to the assassins creed series and since then I've played all 12 main games and their dlcs along with Liberations (still finishing Valhalla's Siege of Paris dlc).
@@fire-typhoon123 I know you asked the other guy but I’d like to say that freedom cry is pretty good and fun just don’t expect something as good as black flag obviously since it’s only really just a standalone dlc
@@fire-typhoon123 It's pretty much playing more of Black Flag. I wish the story was longer and the open world was bigger but I enjoyed following Adewale and there are fun new weapons to use.
When it comes to the side activity it’s quite difficult to judge which is better. Black Flag’s open seas and seaside communities are fantastic for explore even if it can feel empty at times on the ocean where you’re either in combat or going from point A to point B, and the Kenway’s Fleet minigame is a genuinely interesting one that encourages you to bring different kinds of ships into the fleet from overworld attacking. The trade aspect is built off of send off missions in the previous games and Kenway’s Fleet is a nice evolution. In Unity’s favour there’s the side missions that don’t hand hold, and make you the player do some thinking instead of go to marked point on map, complete indicated task, one less icon on the overworld. It’s like III where it shows you a side of the protagonist the main story doesn’t highlight, and a side to them that should be seen. Unity also has the best character customisation where you can swap in individual components of Arno’s ensemble rather relying on specific preset outfits.
I prefer Unity honestly. I like the setting and gameplay better. I love that you are an actual assassin in the game and I actually love Arno as a protagonist. It's my favorite Assassin's Creed game to this day.
I love both games! Both are fun and exciting to play but the repetitive tailing missions in Black Flag can be a bit too much. I love the side content of Black flag because there is so much to do. Unity on the other hand, Paris as an open world is amazing, as well as the side content (never played Dead Kings, trying to work on that). I belive that both games should win just because on how awesome the games were.
I think that Black Flag is the overall better game. I have 4 100% playthroughs of it, it was my first real gaming experience and it will always hold a special place in my heart. But I have to say that the polished version of Unity is by far the best AC game out there. The map design, the graphics and gameplay systems. Nothing has been close to catching the Assassin fantasy as well as this game!
I'm sitting at 93% competition on black flag All that's left is finishing Kenways fleet, completing all the optional objects in the story, and last but not least buying the rest of the weapons
Unity has the best gameplay out of all AC games in the entire series. The graphics, parkour, customization options. A lot of people didn't like the story and i just never understood why. Overall, it is very ahead of its time and is just more enjoyable to play (for me).
Thing is I love the parkour more in Unity but it just lacks locations. Feels like everywhere most the buildings are the same. Each island in Black flag was unique. But the main problem i have with Unity is that for me personally it killed it from being an actual pretty good game because it didn't have the notoriety system like the previous ones had. It feels like on Unity you have to run 3 blocks just to fight like 3 guards which sucks
I know its an unpopular opinion but Valhalla is my favorite followed by Origins and Black Flag. I went in to Valhalla with no hype or expectations and just had a blast when I played it. Black Flag is amazing though. It's pretty much the perfect Pirate game. Unity was a ton of fun too. It's not one of my top games but I still love it. It still looks amazing these days and Paris was beautiful. It really felt like a next gen title when it came out to me.
Let's be honest, who really remember the story of unity? I think almost no one, I can remember like 2 characters at most, but the story of Black Flag is completely unique (also the ship mechanics) though if you want a modern funny gameplay experience Unity is a good option
Both are great and unique games and have their respective strong points, but I would say Black Flag wins for me because of naval combat and being more immersive, while I enjoy Unity's settings of French Revolution and improved graphics. Also would love to hear your opinions on Forgotten Temple
I think it comes down to this. Unity improved on the fundamentals of AC (combat, stealth, movement) while Black Flag added a bunch of content and exploration. People liked Unity cuz it made them feel more like an assassin while Black Flag made them feel like they can do anything and go anywhere
@@shinobimsh5687 ACB and ACR best stealth system? there is no stealth system, its just running around and killing guards that don't see you. Unity has hands down the best stealth and the biggest variety and replayability with it. Though i agree that AC2 has the best combat
@@lepersonnage371 "No stealth system in acb and r? Are you comedy me ua-cam.com/video/ykGGejLb0L8/v-deo.html Just mention specifically that you don't know games mechanics properly i will agree. Games like rdr2 don't have stealth mechanics not ac
@@shinobimsh5687 it does have stealth tools, I means that it doesn't have stealth mode and stealth animations specifically like other stealth games have. But everything in the video you sent can be done in Unity but with more animations and style, so idk why you call it the best stealth
I admit that I had high hopes for Unity, but I'm afraid that it didn't ensnared me like the previous games did. It might be because I didn't get to play it properly until years after the release, or maybe I was too stuck in medieval history and the pirate era, to fully embrace France during the revolution. It might even have been the transit to a new modern protagonist, but neither Unity or Syndicate were my cup of tea.
Just finished them both back-to-back and the answer is blackflag. Admittedly i hate sailing in AC games, but as far as story, characters, parkour, responsive combat, and fun activities Black Flag wins. Unity is only cool for customizing genuinely, you can be neither bold nor stealthy without being forced to use smokebombs Unity was BAD.
Same with me, played unity about 3-4 months ago and finished Black Flag last week (played both for the first time). I had to force myself to finish the main story of Unity, it was truly painfully boring and frustrating. Overall probably like a 3/10 game, despite the great visuals it just wasn't fun and it's not like there's much else to do besides the main story. Black Flag is an amazing game, a few flaws though, but still amazing. I'd probably rate it like a 9/10. I would've liked that story to be just a bit longer/less rushed and with about 75% less tailing missions.
I prefer Black Flag, though, I love the improvements Unity made and wish the story was a bit better with more French Revolution parts. I enjoyed Syndicate though I hated that crouching was reduced to the stealth button and it was tied to the hood so I had stealth on all the time. I also hate the lack of weapon variety and the continuous punching system.
Unity has better gameplay but it's story is pretty weak. I'd still rather play that though. Going from Odyssey to black flag made me not like the boat combat as much
Black flag is one of my favorites but unity is still on my list of ones I need to do so I can’t compare very well but it’ll be hard to beat black flag imo
Honestly both games are really different so it’s hard to compare and compete them against each other but honestly Unity is really something special, phantom blad, best parkour, all assassins outfits. But black flag is also good with its own way adventuring on every island and treasure hunting and having your own boat.
I find it easier to replay Unity than Black Flag, due to the much better basics like stealth and traversal. Black Flag seems a bit too heavy story wise and content wise to replay
Love both, honestly.A bit more Unity, tho, for the heavy fire it got at launch day....And yeah - "Dead kings" is on another level.Probably my favorite DLC after "Blood & Wine".
Currently replaying syndicate, but unity and Black flag are beyond fun. BF setting is unmatched IMO. Unity’s setting is amazing as well, plus both have amazing protagonists. Either one I’m not mad with
After playing Assassin's liberation I was so disappointed that for years I haven't played AC games until one of mine friend recommended this black flag game and the trust on AC games was back and now I am love with AC games!
Unity has a special place for me. Even when it was buggy I didn't mind. What I don't get is how they could not recycle this games' animations and physics in Mirage - probably the Valhalla Engine was the obvious choice with limitations.
For me Unity's graphic and parkour is good but combat didn't give me the powerful feeling like Black flag, and the stealth is meh(lot of bug/glitch) based on my experience playing it, as of Black flag its gonna be a combat because i love the counter takedown, and the ship because so far, its the best ship mechanic i have ever played, the story has impact to my feelings compare to unity's(but dead king dlc is good). overall both has its own pro and con...
I always liked being a ninja or some stealthy assassin... so i guess u know what i like the most... for me, unity is one of best games ever created....even with bugs... The feeling is the thing for me... i felt like an assassin, in unity
Man I am gonna replay both. I just beat odyessy and oh boy it was a weird ride but I actually enjoyed it overall. Unity is nostalgic but black flag makes me wanna cry how good it is. 😂 both games are amazing. But I really like the new style as well. I’m gonna beat origins, Valhalla, black flag and finally unity . Weird order but yeah let me know if I should switch order
First, you elide over the fact of Unity being one of the most broken launch's in the history of gaming. As I recall, it needed a day one patch that was bigger than the game itself to render it almost playable. That being said the dev's should get credit for sticking with the game and making an excellent game. And it should be noted that one of the main reasons for it to be such a broken disaster at launch was the overly ambitious aims of the dev. As an Assassins Creed game I would rate the product when completely fixed to be better than Black Flag but I think Black Flag was a better overall game. Good vid

Same but unity size is really f up
I mean the game data size no the game SIZE💀
I’m replaying black flag rn and the nostalgia is hitting hard especially with black beard
Never was really into the series until I played Revelations, your content has made me like Assassin's Creed way more(bar anything after origins)

Black flag: most funny to play.
Only thing I don't like about unity's parkour is how Arno does these jumps and leaps that don't look right or possible
It’s really inconsistent as well. Why can he jump this 20 foot gap but not this 15 feet one? Why can he jump up to this ledge but can’t jump up to this shorter one? Why does he auto swing on this rope but lands on this one instead?

Idk what it is, but you're comparison vids are great. The time and thought clearly taken into the making of ur vids 👌
for the records of my ideal of view, there are some points that good and bad for these both games:
good:
story:
1. edward story is not about his greed for riches, in truth he just want to make money to which point that can have support his life, wife and daughter. thing is not just want he has, he want the best thing in life that make him not to look poor or get him sick, if i remember correctly edward childhood was pretty tragic, not just poor but also loose people he loved for ( may be his parents or brothers or sisters, i dont know, if i'm wrong then sorry )
2. may be arnold story is about just for revenged and love elise but thing of this way, he lost both father and adopt father which lead him only has elise, who is both childhood lover and sister. they both grew up and have wonderful time after his father murdered infront of his eyes. so yeah when his adopt father died, he considered him not just like his father but also his guidance to his adulthood. in other words, they are his second family. of course he can be arrogant and his purpose when he joined the assassin just for revenge, but if you were him and put in that situation, will you want to revenge and bring justice for the one you loved? more than that, when he lose elise too, he realised that he didnt have any one he cared and loved for but only the assassin, it will be perfect sense that the creed is he only family left, he decided to grow up and do what he can to protect this family.
gameplay and graphics:
1. edward has some major point when compare to arnold: a ship which has a lot of fire power, 2 family on his side ( the crew and the assassins ). nice amount of parkour and great graphic of texture.
2. arnold has a lot of kind of gears, skills, and a home which are both a cafe and personal mansion, realistic npcs, perfect parkour like the real life one and true history of world monuments.
bad:
1. edward may be has a great story but it lacks details like the after he joined the British assassin, parkour may look great but its not realistic, too easy gameplay and finally is lack of arsenal not like arnold.
2. arnold story is too short, a lot of annoying and some funny bugs when climb and running parkour, npcs are also bug as hell, and finally is combat a little bit hard, like a bug when fighting belec it has annoy glitch which very hard for pass the memory.

Unity also has the best character customisation where you can swap in individual components of Arno’s ensemble rather relying on specific preset outfits.
Ubisoft partnered up with Webtoon and there is a story there called the lost temple about Edward Kennway so you should read it to us the story
They both deserve sequels tbh
I’m new to the channel and i wanna know which Assassin Creeds is the best so i’ll like to enjoy playing on 2023
I was going to say that but you beat me to it lol
I own both and love both equally. Currently playing Origins and I’m really loving it
I prefer Unity honestly. I like the setting and gameplay better. I love that you are an actual assassin in the game and I actually love Arno as a protagonist. It's my favorite Assassin's Creed game to this day.
Same here.
I love both games! Both are fun and exciting to play but the repetitive tailing missions in Black Flag can be a bit too much. I love the side content of Black flag because there is so much to do. Unity on the other hand, Paris as an open world is amazing, as well as the side content (never played Dead Kings, trying to work on that). I belive that both games should win just because on how awesome the games were.
i played both and i like black flag more because of its mechanics freedom and the activities u can do in the game.
I think that Black Flag is the overall better game. I have 4 100% playthroughs of it, it was my first real gaming experience and it will always hold a special place in my heart. But I have to say that the polished version of Unity is by far the best AC game out there. The map design, the graphics and gameplay systems. Nothing has been close to catching the Assassin fantasy as well as this game!
Black Flag. Still this to day, 10 years since its release
I'm sitting at 93% competition on black flag
All that's left is finishing Kenways fleet, completing all the optional objects in the story, and last but not least buying the rest of the weapons
Unity is better than it’s reputation for sure but Black Flag is head and shoulders a better game I feel.
Unity has the best gameplay out of all AC games in the entire series. The graphics, parkour, customization options. A lot of people didn't like the story and i just never understood why. Overall, it is very ahead of its time and is just more enjoyable to play (for me).
Thing is I love the parkour more in Unity but it just lacks locations. Feels like everywhere most the buildings are the same.
Each island in Black flag was unique.
But the main problem i have with Unity is that for me personally it killed it from being an actual pretty good game because it didn't have the notoriety system like the previous ones had. It feels like on Unity you have to run 3 blocks just to fight like 3 guards which sucks
I know its an unpopular opinion but Valhalla is my favorite followed by Origins and Black Flag. I went in to Valhalla with no hype or expectations and just had a blast when I played it.
Black Flag is amazing though. It's pretty much the perfect Pirate game. Unity was a ton of fun too. It's not one of my top games but I still love it. It still looks amazing these days and Paris was beautiful. It really felt like a next gen title when it came out to me.
Imagine both of these games with The Resident Evil 4 Remake treatment that would be awesome especially for unity making it completely polished
Both are my top 3 and i hope that ac mirage goes in the unity style when it comes to parcour stealth and even combat.
Please AC3 vs ac origins 🙏🙏
And it would be nice if you also do far cry 3 vs far cry primal
6:01 i’ve never seen this finisher in black flag before
My favorite ac game is syndicate but between black flag and unity I definitely like black flag more
Both are my favorite. Black Flag is cool for the sailing the ocean part. Both have good stories. 😊
Let's be honest, who really remember the story of unity? I think almost no one, I can remember like 2 characters at most, but the story of Black Flag is completely unique (also the ship mechanics) though if you want a modern funny gameplay experience Unity is a good option
Both are great and unique games and have their respective strong points, but I would say Black Flag wins for me because of naval combat and being more immersive, while I enjoy Unity's settings of French Revolution and improved graphics. Also would love to hear your opinions on Forgotten Temple
I think it comes down to this. Unity improved on the fundamentals of AC (combat, stealth, movement) while Black Flag added a bunch of content and exploration. People liked Unity cuz it made them feel more like an assassin while Black Flag made them feel like they can do anything and go anywhere
Ac2 already has best combat system
Acb,R has best stealth system
And ac1-rev has best Parkour with precision control
@@shinobimsh5687 ACB and ACR best stealth system? there is no stealth system, its just running around and killing guards that don't see you. Unity has hands down the best stealth and the biggest variety and replayability with it. Though i agree that AC2 has the best combat
@@lepersonnage371 "No stealth system in acb and r? Are you comedy me
ua-cam.com/video/ykGGejLb0L8/v-deo.html
Just mention specifically that you don't know games mechanics properly i will agree.
Games like rdr2 don't have stealth mechanics not ac
@@lepersonnage371 ua-cam.com/video/mh7QaVk6tgg/v-deo.html
@@shinobimsh5687 it does have stealth tools, I means that it doesn't have stealth mode and stealth animations specifically like other stealth games have. But everything in the video you sent can be done in Unity but with more animations and style, so idk why you call it the best stealth
I admit that I had high hopes for Unity, but I'm afraid that it didn't ensnared me like the previous games did. It might be because I didn't get to play it properly until years after the release, or maybe I was too stuck in medieval history and the pirate era, to fully embrace France during the revolution. It might even have been the transit to a new modern protagonist, but neither Unity or Syndicate were my cup of tea.
Just finished them both back-to-back and the answer is blackflag. Admittedly i hate sailing in AC games, but as far as story, characters, parkour, responsive combat, and fun activities Black Flag wins. Unity is only cool for customizing genuinely, you can be neither bold nor stealthy without being forced to use smokebombs Unity was BAD.
Same with me, played unity about 3-4 months ago and finished Black Flag last week (played both for the first time). I had to force myself to finish the main story of Unity, it was truly painfully boring and frustrating. Overall probably like a 3/10 game, despite the great visuals it just wasn't fun and it's not like there's much else to do besides the main story. Black Flag is an amazing game, a few flaws though, but still amazing. I'd probably rate it like a 9/10. I would've liked that story to be just a bit longer/less rushed and with about 75% less tailing missions.
amazing video
I prefer Black Flag, though, I love the improvements Unity made and wish the story was a bit better with more French Revolution parts.
I enjoyed Syndicate though I hated that crouching was reduced to the stealth button and it was tied to the hood so I had stealth on all the time. I also hate the lack of weapon variety and the continuous punching system.
Unity has better gameplay but it's story is pretty weak. I'd still rather play that though.
Going from Odyssey to black flag made me not like the boat combat as much
I feel Arno’s character lacks, because he barely has voice lines during side content.
Black flag is one of my favorites but unity is still on my list of ones I need to do so I can’t compare very well but it’ll be hard to beat black flag imo
Honestly both games are really different so it’s hard to compare and compete them against each other but honestly Unity is really something special, phantom blad, best parkour, all assassins outfits. But black flag is also good with its own way adventuring on every island and treasure hunting and having your own boat.
I purchased unity without realising my pc will die. Its in my library for about 2 years now
What happened to the big dead guy at 6:04 😂
Me who love both of the games
I find it easier to replay Unity than Black Flag, due to the much better basics like stealth and traversal. Black Flag seems a bit too heavy story wise and content wise to replay
Love both, honestly.A bit more Unity, tho, for the heavy fire it got at launch day....And yeah - "Dead kings" is on another level.Probably my favorite DLC after "Blood & Wine".
RDR2 laughing in the corner:
Currently replaying syndicate, but unity and Black flag are beyond fun. BF setting is unmatched IMO. Unity’s setting is amazing as well, plus both have amazing protagonists. Either one I’m not mad with
13 yr old me at the end of black flag balling my eyes out "out of all the the money that i had i spent it in good company" :)
After playing Assassin's liberation I was so disappointed that for years I haven't played AC games until one of mine friend recommended this black flag game and the trust on AC games was back and now I am love with AC games!
5:33 Yeah, who doesn't love a grindy slow slugfest with assassins in it?
Black Flag and it’s not even a competition. Unity is one of the worst games in the series while Black Flag is one of the best.
Unity need part 2 or at least remaster
I can't staaaand the naval combat, made the pick easy to go for Unity after AC3 instead of Black Flag lol
people say that ac unity has too many bugs and glitches but when I play black flag I get more bugs when playing
Unity has a special place for me. Even when it was buggy I didn't mind. What I don't get is how they could not recycle this games' animations and physics in Mirage - probably the Valhalla Engine was the obvious choice with limitations.
Unity it's just peak gameplay and co op still works!
For me Unity's graphic and parkour is good but combat didn't give me the powerful feeling like Black flag, and the stealth is meh(lot of bug/glitch) based on my experience playing it, as of Black flag its gonna be a combat because i love the counter takedown, and the ship because so far, its the best ship mechanic i have ever played, the story has impact to my feelings compare to unity's(but dead king dlc is good). overall both has its own pro and con...
Who's most introvert assassin and extrovert in whole franchise ? Including shay ?
nice idea we could do that

Ezios most extrovert Connors most introvert.
@@ACLA23 I mean yea but we could see Masterassassin's point of view yk what I mean?
I always liked being a ninja or some stealthy assassin... so i guess u know what i like the most... for me, unity is one of best games ever created....even with bugs... The feeling is the thing for me... i felt like an assassin, in unity
Love your video and i like both games but black flags for me
Les Go new video
Unity is better in my honest opinion
Man I am gonna replay both. I just beat odyessy and oh boy it was a weird ride but I actually enjoyed it overall. Unity is nostalgic but black flag makes me wanna cry how good it is. 😂 both games are amazing. But I really like the new style as well. I’m gonna beat origins, Valhalla, black flag and finally unity . Weird order but yeah let me know if I should switch order
Your playing order is pretty much worst to best lol (animations and graphics are the best in unity)
Do more AC Rouge videos please
Both games are good. I go for Unity if I want to be a hooded vigilante in a city (also coop) then Black Flag for absolute pirate life.
Black Flag is much better
black flag was my first assassin's creed and that is my favorite
First, you elide over the fact of Unity being one of the most broken launch's in the history of gaming. As I recall, it needed a day one patch that was bigger than the game itself to render it almost playable. That being said the dev's should get credit for sticking with the game and making an excellent game. And it should be noted that one of the main reasons for it to be such a broken disaster at launch was the overly ambitious aims of the dev. As an Assassins Creed game I would rate the product when completely fixed to be better than Black Flag but I think Black Flag was a better overall game. Good vid
When u hit 200k. Make Unity co-op 5 hour stream
Just recently played unity for the first time and it is by far my favorite AC game before i played it black flag was my fav
These games are my top two ac games ever
