Finished AC:Revalations.

I hate this game, yet I can't stay mad at it. The combat's fun, the stealth-style enjoyable, and the story is quite enjoyable...at times.

Other times it pisses me right the fuck off. The humanist pop philosophy, the stupidity First Civ crap (you mean to tell me those hyperadvanced fuckers couldn't figure out space travel in time to spare their species from destruction?), the fact I'm supposed to give a damn about the First Civ's inner bickering without a second thought just because INTRIGUE!!!, the fact that what should be a franchise with a universe of complete ambiguity where everything is equally plausible and could all mesh together into a cohesive world of uncertaintity where moralities of everyone involved are grey, slightly darker grey and slightly lighter grey is instead replaced with amoral pricks, nicer-yet-still-amoral pricks and the rest of the world, the fact that I'm supposed to buy the faction names existing since Adam and Eve's snagging of the Golden Snitch and Cain snapping Abel's neck over it despite Templar being shorthand for a rather lengthy title to an order of Knights and Assassin essentially being 11th Century Arabic for "pot head," and all the fucking modern plot stuff that I'm supposed to care about.

And yet, in spite of all that, I love playing the games.
