Assassin's Creed: Victory - 10 Things It Must Learn From Black Flag
10. Bring Back Ships And Sailing
One of the criticisms AC Unity faces is the fact that it is landlocked, meaning you cant sail or tackle the high seas at all. This feature in Black Flag became beloved very quickly, not only because it diversified the game greatly, offering players a break from the parkour mechanics of the game, but it was incredibly well put together from a gameplay perspective. Furthermore, sailing allowed for greater freedom to explore, due to the vast amount of islands and huge map size in general. Players were encouraged to delve into the various areas which all felt relatively unique and different from one another, keeping the look and overall feel of the game fresh and vibrant. So, due to Britain being an island and London having a number of rivers flowing in and out of it, it's completely plausible to have the option of sailing returned. Granted, it shouldnt be the main crux of the gameplay like it was previously as that wouldnt suit a London-based game, however it would still be a nice feather in the cap that could increase replay value substantially.
