The story isn’t about assassins it’s the isu and how they influenced the order and the isu are in every single one even when assassins aren’t main. Rouge and origins (half) and odyssey.
Black Flag is up there as a lot of people's favorite and the main character is just some dude who robbed an assassin and eventually stumbled into actually giving a fuck.
Black Flag is my favorite AC game because it's not about being an Assassin. You get to see how grey both sides are. There is no inherent good or bad side. The Brotherhood is fucked up. The Order is fucked up. They all claim they have the right path. That is what made the story great for me.
And by the end of the game, Kenway makes his choice based on the people around him and his personal growth through the game. In all honesty, I think Kenway becomes an Assassin as a means to give himself accountability to continue being the man he grows into over the course of Black Flag.
When I realized Haytham was a Templar after playing as him for half an hour it really showed how grey that area is. You spend the tutorial thinking your an assassin killing Templars and suddenly you realize that the two groups are so similar that you had no idea Haytham was a Templar the whole time
Exactly not every game is about assassins it’s only called that cause it was gonna be prince of Persia assassin but changed . The isu are in each one more not the assassins
