Assassin's Creed is an amazing game and should set the baseline for X1X games going forward.
My last AC game was Brotherhood so while the new game feel familiar, the generations of polish really shows.
I do find it strange that animation in game is better than in cutscenes but with the sheer amount of life they've introduced into the game, I can't complain too much. I'm having a lot of fun with it.
This may sound unlikely but I've probably spent more time on the X1X since it came out than the XB1 in the past year plus. Looks like I'll just be keeping my 2600k and 980ti for a lot longer than planned...
