So I was checking Game of the year list on Wikipedia and noticed that Assassin’s Creed was never Game of the Year.

Not on any list around the world did it reach the top. The first one felt very fresh, but it just did not feel complete. But the 2nd one was just an amazing game and that one got beaten on some lists by Uncharted 2 which is understandable, but also by Batman: Arkham Asylum which is basically inspired by AC.

Maybe they should just ditch the whole Animus plot. I wished that Valhalla and Black Flag were just about being a Viking and a Pirate

    Maybe they should just ditch the whole Animus plot.

    I think if that was going to happen it would have happened after AC3.

    Personally I’m glad the Animus is there, it makes it much easier for me to suspend disbelief about so many things in those games. I wish AC3 hadn’t messed up Desmond’s story though, I wanted a cool conclusion, rather than having Desmond get Poochied.
