This, right here, is Assassin's Creed at its purest. Far too many people tend to overlook the first one because it's just so different from subsequent entries. Sure, it's repetitive as all hell sometimes, and its age shows in that regard, but I still consider it to be my absolute favorite in the series. As for this port, it comes from that age where PC ports were an afterthought handled by the B team, but I think it's pretty alright, all things considered. This is the only game where I'd recommend turning V-sync on, because the physics are tied to the framerate, and for some reason, switching on V-sync fixes a lot of annoying issues in that regard. As for the controls, it plays surprisingly well on mouse and keyboard to the point where I actually kind of prefer it over a controller, provided you rebind your keys to your liking. I'd also recommend turning off your HUD and using headphones. Final verdict: You should absolutely give it a shot, but get it on sale.
