Assassins Creed is one of my favourite video game series, and I really enjoyed it. The original was good when I played it but, looking back, I wouldn't want to go through it again; it's too repetitive. I never played II but Brotherhood was my favourite. It has good script, Ezio is a badass character and the Borgias are satisfying too kill. Revelations was OK but it felt like a rehash of Brotherhood, even if the Templars were getting better as enemies and Ezio's songs are awesome! III was good to play through, and while the gameplay was strange to get used to it quickly happened.

Also, regarding Desmond's death, various sources say that for IV you are playing through the memories as a Game Tester after the DNA was extracted from William and uploaded to the cloud during his capture by Abstergo. Although more boat gameplay doesn't sound good, being a pirate should be awesome. Plus you're British!!!
