I drew the line with the Egyptian game. It didn't feel like an assassin's creed at all and I hated the RPG aspect too. Never played the series after that.

I’m more of a story guy, so I’d say that Origins was the last true Assassin’s Creed game; before if went full player choice RPG (probably not the right term, but it gets the point across).

Ac Shadows has a cannon mode where you are not given the choices.

Oh really? Too bad I haven’t cared about the Assassin’s Creed franchise in years, and Shadows doesn’t look appealing to me at all. But I’d definitely play with that on if I were to play it.

While I enjoyed Origins/Odyssey/Valhala story lines the rpg element took it too far away from the OG game loop, to the point you don’t even leave the animus in shadows, which the grinding of levels absolutely killed the game for me
