Assassin's Creed®: Director's Cut

You can see why this game spawned a franchise. The overarching story is interesting, the parkour is primitive by todays standards but still a lot of fun. The cutscenes after a kill are pure kino and researching Abstergo is really cool, but the cameras everywhere recording your every move make you feel like an idiot regardless. Now onto the bad. The characters are edgy and not interesting. The only one that was halfway decent was Malik, but he gets hardly any screen time. The parkour is extremely janky, you'll miss jumps somehow at important times, there are enemies that push you into guards causing an alert or into the insta-kill water, and there are beggars who will never get out of your face when you're trying to sneak around. Throwing knives make the game way too easy, but you can choose not to use them. The voice acting for the main character is awful and he is completely unlikeable.

if you buy this game, be ready to fix it before you play. this game requires hex editing to get rid of stutters or you can try putting the old server that this game uses on a block list but there is no real chance it will get rid of the stutters. good game, held back by the work that you need to do to get a good experience.

Stutters badly quite often. Given that it's such an old game, and we played it in a decent configuration PC back in the day, it should run smoothly in modern machines. But it doesn't really. Not even I lower graphic settings. Fix something maybe?

but it lags (freezes) every 3 min or so for like 5 sec.

For some odd reason the game is lagging and freezing all the time
