The rating is 77. 77 is the lowest rating a game in the main series of Assassins Creed has received. This means the other games have 78 or up. How in the world is this considered bad? For an entire fucking franchise? Not a fan of the series or anything but I just think it's ridiculous how this is an actual headline! Don't the journalists have nothing else to report on regarding video games and the industry? Layoffs? Toxic people and business practices? Microtransactions?
Nah, instead they go: "pretty good (but not great) game is slightly less good than other pretty good (but not great) games in an overall pretty good (but not great) franchise." Ugh!
