Assassin's Creed 4 protagonist aspires to be a 'man of quality'

4.6
"Edward Kenway is a raucous and bawdy chap," Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag lead scriptwriter Darby McDevitt told Polygon, "but he's also a married man, and one of his primary motivations in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is to get rich and prove himself a 'man of quality' to his family and betters." Kenway wants to chart a course to respectability - at least in the eyes of his time - and his tenuous marriage will serve as one of the central narrative threads in the game.

McDevitt also mentioned gameplay will be "more open and free than ever before," reflecting Ubisoft's earlier missive about the game paying heed to "the older philosophy" of the series. Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag will be available on Wii U, PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 on October 29, 2013.

This game looks to be ok but I feel like they are putting too much of an emphasis on naval warfare in this game. I so far have liked ACIII the best out of all the Assassin Creeds.

The Assassin's Creed games are thoroughly enjoyable, especially AC2 and AC3, they offer a wide range of things to do and many enjoyable scenarios. This Assassin's Creed appears like it will be a great hit, especially that it will be coming to the next-gen consoles.


I got Assassins Creed 2 with my PS3 and i never played it much as i didnt really enjoy it, but a few months back i was board and started played it and it was so enjoyable i ended up getting the platinum trophy for it

iidoubledrop They are still making these games? I thought they died out ages ago.

Wow, you need to stay up with the tech news more. Haha. I am just kidding. But honestly I think this might be one of the last games they make if not the last.
