I would love to play through this game again, but I cannot stand the screen shake. I really wish they added an option to turn it off.

A typo here. It must be PS3, 360 and Wii U.

Note the double use of "2013" as well.

Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Xbox One, Playstation 4, WiiU and PC was all a 2013 release.

Switch in 2019.

Stadia in 2021.

The double use of 2023 is correct though, since it's different months. The 8th generation versions were released a month later, it turns out.

I played it earlier this year, just after having finished Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2, and I was amazed by the systemic game design, level of freedom and experimentation Black Flag allows the player in the missions. In the Rockstar's games you just get met by a "mission failed" screen as soon as deviate slightly from the scripted path. The ship combat, setting and story of Black Flag are also all top notch. One of my favorite open world games ever.

Got it at the PS4 launch since there wasn't a lot to play at launch, and I figured this would be the first Assassin Creed game I would like. I played an hour or so, and it was pretty but yeah it sucked as much as every other Assassin Creed game. Tried the free trials of Valhalla and Odyssey years later and didn't enjoy them either. I have no plans of even playing a demo of another Assassin Creed game again.
