      nope.... wrong... the games combat is genuinely hard and even hard to master... the games combat also has a secret mechanic that isn't explained to the player at all but it essentially the prototype of kill-chaining that was properly presented in Brotherhood but anyways enemies have the fear mechanic in which they would be intimidated and look like they were going to vomit and so you can easily switch to your (you can get a free hit on enemies with sword/dagger) hidden blade and insta kill them if they do that animation and after you hidden blade kill them, you can then chain it.... this can happen to any enemy type but those with higher rank would be more resisted to it. This helps especially if you're going to do a no-hit/canon playthrough of the game since altair during his redemption never got hit in battle.... all of this was explained by Leo K rogue and someone before him but if you want proper presentation then you should go watch his video

    I love AC1, it’s right behind Revelations for me. I loved the setting, I enjoyed the story, and Altair is a really cool and interesting character that I think a lot of people sleep on. And to be honest, I don’t really see why people dislike the gameplay. I love the combat and upgrading over the story makes you feel like Altair and how he has to regain his equipment and relearn to be an assassin. I didn’t even find the missions that repetitive, in hindsight they are but the game is so short I didn’t really even notice. I do understand that it’s by far the most basic AC game, but I don’t think that means it’s upsides should be overlooked.

      I'll say this, Altair felt like he had real weight to him when he moved - when you did climbing and parkour, it felt like the movement of a real human being. I feel like Ezio moved like 25-30% faster and just felt like a video game character, felt like he shot up the face of buildings rather than methodically climbed them

    The thing about the first assassins creed is you would do side quests which would give you information on your target like for example a completely unguarded path through which you could just walk in, kill, walk out. This is what made the game feel like a real assassin, roaming around and gathering information before making a plan and executing it.

I always followed and respected the creed to the last letter and that made this game such a wonderful experience for me. This game makes you work for each and everything, even basic walking without bumping into anyone. Now Assassins creed doesnt take itself even a little bit seriously. Only the hardcore know the main three tenets of the creed. I bet the new players dont even know what the heck this creed even is. Whenever I broke the creed I got into serious trouble. No handholding and no help with serious restrictions. Man, I miss this game.

      Once we started getting into gay vikings and Egyptian magic gods and making the Assassins Proto-Marxists, that's when I think Assassin's Creed stopped actually being about the Assassins. I'd dare say that the last game that was actually about the Assassins was Rogue, with Black Flag being more of a pirate game that happened to be set in the Assassin's Creed universe.

    I think people write it off as inferior today because the later ones were focused on the action for a later generation with shorter attention spans. The first one was about the preparation missions, learning everything about your target, your environment, making allies to aid you in your escape, and deciding from several options how to get in make your kill and get away.

    So i started playing assassins creed series on late 2021, i played every game and here id my opinion, wothout any nostalgia or anything.
    Ac1 - Broing, repetative, tidious combat, nice parkour.
    Ac2 - This one was really good, but in mamy ways it was too similiar to ac1, also combat was sometimes just boring and the fights wete too long.
    AcB- ma fovourite game kn the franchise, i loved ac2, and Brotherhood was just a better version of it
    AcR - Borotherhood 2, great story.
    Ac3 - Great parkour, even better combat but the stealth was often iritating.
    Ac4 - Prepare your nostalgic ass to blow up: The naval combat was ok... for the first couple of hours, after like 30h it was so fucking boring i just turned on cheats to skipp these missions. Meele combat was too easy, stealh was good, story was awsome (best of all imo)
    Ac Rouge - Same ass black flag, also a great story.
    AcU - Better aproach to combat, it was harder, and fighitng larger gropus of enemies was imposibble, what i loved, coz it forced you to play stealthy.
    AcS - Great city, memorable main charachters, kinda repetetive, but still fun.
    Ac Origins - Bad parkour, good story, good combat, nice setting.
    Ac Oddysey - Its not even assassins creed, but still a ok. game.
    Ac valhalla - Even worse parkour, most of the game felt like standart rpg game, wirh assassins creed crossover, still a fun expieriwnce. I actually had more fun with valhalla than with ac1.
    And thats the truth. You dont like ac1 just becouse of good memories from childhood, which makes any review usless. Prove me if im wrong.
