Bought the three as a pack for like $25 over the weekend and was wondering for anyone who has played them which one should I play before Red Dead gets here?

Black Flag. I played all up to that and quit during Unity because the game was full of bugs at release. Thinking about diving back in for Odyssey though.

Black Flag was amazing. Play it for sure.

Unity wasn't bad once they got the bugs fixed. I enjoyed some of the changes they went with for it.

Syndicate annoyed the shite out of me and I didn't get very far with it before I quit.

How is that, you figure? I keep hearing that it's one of the better recent ones along with Black Flag, but I can't get into it at all.

I was leaning toward Black Flag because of the pirate aspect so this kind of confirmed it. Not much time before RDR 2 and Odyssey come out but oh well

Personally I think Black Flag is the best Assassin's Creed game.

I don't know, I just didn't enjoy it. Wasn't a story or setting I was very interested in, so I stopped playing. Think I got it free, so didn't invest anything into it.

That's understandable, mostly the reason I haven't played a lot of them. Really pumped for Odyssey though

Black Flag’s the bomb. It’s amazing how entertaining it is to just sail around aimlessly.

Victorian England is right up my alley, and as far as story beats, it's fine. The combat isn't my favorite.

I love AC games for the collector “gotta get the viewpoints” completionist side of me but I couldn’t get into syndicate or unity. Just finished origins which I really liked but pissed me off that viewpoints don’t really do anything and that I never felt very excited about any weapons since you can upgrade them all.

Loved black flag, but I love pirate games.

Of all of them, Black Flag feels the least like an Assassin's Creed game, but it's by far the most fun.

Black Flag is a great game, but shitty assassins creed game.

This makes it one of the best of the franchise.

Black flag looks to be the overwhelming majority and rightfully so.

The story was awesome and the setting was visually incredible.
