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

    I would submit that AC Brotherhood would be a contender, as it was kinda the peak of the original formula before it all started to blend together and degrade, and the multiplayer mode was truly original, fun, and hasn’t been replicated since. Maybe even Black Flag as it was a unique game that many developers have failed to replicate.
