Topic: Assassin's Creed Ezio Collection for Nintendo Switch

@Zuljaras Did you get the game? And do you still consider giving the remaining codes?

@JaxonH That's great to hear that they run smoothly, that always was an issue for me on my old old PC. It makes a big difference when you go in for those big kills or have a moment of intense action. I'm sure it looks pretty sharp on the OLED! Thank you for sharing!

Good to hear the games run well. I preordered it for my brother's birthday, it's on its way to his house.

@JokerCK No. I will get it in the future but I think that the games are tied to the cartridge.

Much to my disappointment, there's a day-one 571MB patch.

Probably just a performance improvement patch, but it's enough to convince me to cancel my preorder.

I'll be content with replaying ACIV, no regrets.

I've played Black Flag and Assassin's Creed III and thought those were fairly fun, would these be any different? (better/worse).
I honestly just wanted some more variety and creativity in the stealth sections, my favorite sections, hated the ship sailing and horses though.

@FroZtedFlakerZz
These are older games, but they are very well regarded for their story, a great main character, and a more pure AC approach than the later entries that started mixing all kinds of other mechanics in. I don't even think the game has gyro aiming because you never need to aim. So it's very stealth based and assassin focused.

They definitely have a different feel than ACIV. I love Black Flag, but these games (at least from what I've played) are definitely must-owns if you're a fan of the series.

@JaxonH Mmmmm I might have to pick this up then, thanks!

I will wait until it drops, because you pay way less for the Playstation & Xbox Version and also get everything on disc. Filesize of all three games + audiofile is around 30GB, so it would have fit on the cartridge.

I absolutely loved Black Flag but found III a dull slog, apart from a few sparks of magic.
Definitely going to be getting these, but as I'm playing Arceus at the mo I can wait for the inevitable Ubisoft sale.

Waiting on the NL review too, but going by YouTube reviews it seems only the first of the three was available to review before the release date, so maybe NL are waiting till they can play through all three.

Someone who tried this game?
Is it still good or the gameplay is too old?

I started AC II. The opening is fine. But the first animus missions seem aimless - fight some guys for some reason, carry a letter. The first fights in the animus feel too random & heated for me to absorb the introduction of the combat controls or what's going on. Things seem so aimless, I don't know why I'd boot up the game again. Maybe this is the game's age playing a factor. I was willing to risk that with the purchase.
