Assassin's Creed Origins: 10 Past Mistakes Ubisoft Can't Repeat

Assassin's Creed has always been plagued by technical issues. Bubbling under the surface for years, the franchise's relationship with bugs and glitches finally came to a head with 2014's Unity, which became instantly infamous for its broken character models and completely unoptimised performance.

While not all the issues have been as large as the nightmare-inducing faceless assassins found in Unity, the games have never been perfect upon release. To prove they're really back in the game, Origins needs to convince fans that they're playing a polished and complete sequel, and nothing would break that illusion like falling through the map on launch day.

Then again, it's probably a bit much to ask of Ubisoft to ship a game that isn't broken at release. Across all of their franchises the publisher seems to be incapable of making their titles work, with big releases like Rainbow Six: Siege, For Honor and Watch Dogs all shipping with crippling problems.
