Assassin's Creed: Ranking All The Assassins From Worst To Best
11. Arno Victor Dorian
Being the main protagonist and playable character in the worst entry to a video game franchise is never a good position to find yourself in, but it's sadly exactly the situation for Arno Victor Dorian.
Assassin's Creed Unity is a fairly infamous title amongst fans of the series, with it perhaps standing as a shining example of how to royally screw up a launch. The game was riddled with bugs when it was released, and was laughed off before it really got a chance to get going. This was a real shame because, underneath all of its flaws, there was the potential of really nailing a more softer, sombre tone.
In comparison to Black Flag that came before it, Unity is a real tragic tale, with Arno at the very heart of it. His arc kicks off with some nice continuity with the revelation that Shay Cormac (the Templar protagonist from AC: Rogue) killed his Assassin father. The losses continue to mount up with his fellow Assassin, Pierre Bellec, and love interest, Elise, dying before the game ends.
Arno's story could have really fitted in well with the loss and uncertainty rife during Unity's French Revolution setting, but unfortunately everything about the game, including this Assassin's development, just felt unfinished.
