"This series stopped being good after the Ezio trilogy." "Ezio is the best character in the franchise. The rest are boring." "The last good game in the series was AC2." "Ezio is way better than Connor. Connor is just so boring." These are statements you will find whenever anything about AC3 or Black Flag is brought up.
