So, you don't have to be a hardcore game fan to see that Assassins Creed is liked by many.
Cosplay merchandise and the release of the 6th(?) game all point to that.
My first run in with the Brotherhood began with Assassins Creed 1, and I did not like it. The combat felt slow, the free running was a bit wonky and lets not even mention the horseback riding. (Seriously, speed limits?)
I never finished the game.
But, I do think the concept is interesting. And people insured me that the sequels significantly improve on the flaws of AC1.
But then there is the story.
I prefer to start stories at the beginning.
So, my question here is the following.
If I wanted to get into the AC series, would I have to suck it up and force myself through part 1, to get to the chocolatey goodness of the later parts?
Or is there an perfectly logic starting point at a later point?
