Set against the backdrop of the American Revolution in the late 18th century, Assassin’s Creed III introduces a new hero, Ratohnhaké:ton, of Native American and English heritage. Adopting the name Connor, he becomes the new voice for justice in the ancient war between the Assassins and Templars. Players become an Assassin in the war for liberty against ruthless tyranny in the most stylized and fluid combat experiences in the franchise to date. Assassin’s Creed III spans the Revolutionary War, taking gamers from the vibrant, untamed frontier to bustling colonial towns and the intense, chaotic battlefields where George Washington’s Continental Army clashed with the imposing British Army.

saving my cum shot for the pc version

Loving it. Still at the beginning but the engine doesn't look that bad. Looking forward to trying this on the PC too.

The AI looks dumber and the parkour easier and even more automatic, but the game looks great.

I'll also wait for the PC version, which I've pre-ordered.

There's a Title Update out for this guy, I'd recommend grabbing it before playing too far. Definitely some bugs in this one.
Having played so much of AC Revelations, so far I am not in love with this.

The combat feels harder than the previous games. I'm in the tax missions now and taking on tax collectors and red coats (including the heavy units) feels harder than the previous games. You almost can't get a hit in with the insane amount of countering you have to do between multiple units, so killing quickly and limiting mobs are you is the best way to go. I'm glad the devs made that harder but in some cases, it just seems too hard. Guns are slow to reload (yay) and I think the tomahawk is the best all around weapon. It seems they've toned down on the hidden blade for attacking outside of assassinating. You can't necessarily hide up on the roofs since the redcoats take pot shots if you're exposed.

They took away half your combat options, and I hate that.
I'm so very used to the combat from the last 3 games, holding RB to change into combat mode and then executing timed attacks/parrys with the different buttons.
This just feels like you mash b and then x forever, and the camera is terrible at getting you lost in a sea of red jackets.
A very weak entry into this series.

They kept the directional pad switch between your primary weapons, but I agree about the RB mode for the secondaries. Oh, and holding down, what was it, left button to send your assassin minions on missions? Don't like doing that on the fly.
