Assassin’s Creed® Rogue

Hello, everyone. I recently switched accounts on my EA platform. When I did, I am no longer able to play AC Rogue, or any that I have because all my codes come back as invalid. Is there a way around this? Am I missing something? I was going to just rebuy them, but the check out is telling I won't get a new copy. Does anyone know how to fix this or work with it? I am a huge AC gamer. I love Assassin's Creed as much as anyone on Steam or who loves to play Assassin's Creed. I was wondering if I could get some help on this. Thank you for your time and effort.

It is too short (8,5h to finish the story without rushing), taking up much of Assassin's Creed IV assets and I suspect some of ACIII. The story in itself is interesting but as I was saying earlier too short. The main character is also nice but I didn't get as attached as for Edward Kenway, probably because, (you guessed it) it is too short.

The game is "rather hard" compared to other AC which is surprising but I don't know if it is a good or bad thing, I will give one exemple, you are basically "hunted" by other asssassins as you go rogue. It is perfectly fair but quite annoying when you are moving in New York.

I don't feel the game is as enjoyable as ACIV environment wise both onland and onboat. Onboat it is mainly because of the rather closed water which didn't feel as good as the open seas of the Caribbean. Onland it may be more personal but everyting is "gray" or "grayish", even the music are more bland.

Finaly, the game is filled with ubisoft quests that are annoying which is one of its main flaw.

In conclusion, while not being a bad game I didn't enjoyed it as much as I wished i did, but it was still nice. I am not motivated to finish the game at 100% though which I was for ACIV. If you can grab the game for cheap it is a good insight on the templars ideals.

its like black flag not exactaly rouges story not canon anymore but gameplay awsome

Rouge has the excellent gameplay mechanics of Black Flag, incorporates of the Colonial American Setting from AC3 and characters from both AC 3 and Black Flags such as Achilles and Adewale. You play as an Assassin turned templar and it is interesting and fun experiencing things from the Templar perspective. Most importantly the story is amazing; its intriguing, and very eventful. Overall definitely overlooked by most, however an fantastic game, only wish it were longer.

Always have loved assassins creed games. Rogue and Black Flag have always been my favorite!!!

The only Assassins Creed Game Where The Roles Are Reversed!

Final Score 73/100 Ranking C Tier

Though on shorter side as good experience, but can't call it an unmissable one.

EPIC!!! GAME GOT ME ASKING QUESTIONS!!!!

Deleted my save for absolutely no reason. It's decent otherwise.

This game broke into my house and left me $50 on my night stand after eating all my fruit snacks. 4.5 out of 5 because I miss my fruit snacks.

Good game, slightly short story but enjoying the naval missions.

The point: this game is basically AC Black Flag 2 (The British Empire Strikes Back), and Black Flag is good, if you liked it this is more AC:BF for you. And it's the prequel to Assassins Creed 3 (The Return of the Assassin), so you get more of that colonial america ambience that was so good in that game.

The counterpoint: Can somebody explain me why this game that has one of the most iconic deviation from the main series that is playing a Templar, with great OST and one of the best main themes for any AC that also features and (tries to) expand characters from three main series entries; is a mere side project of half the lenght of the rest of its peers for a dying generation of consoles with a main narrative that delivers so little despite having many iconic characters from a third of the games of the whole AC saga to that point?

I know I shouldn't judge a game for what is not: I'll do it anyway. Ubi, give us a good Templar protagonist in a main entry of the saga and give us a narrative that does it justice.

Despite misgivings, this is a welcome outlier in the Assassin's Creed series.

Too much collecting, not enough story

It connects everything together in the Assassin's creed world

One of the best games i ever played.A very interesting story,and extrem good open world.

This is the Assassin's Creed game you should play if you're a super big fan of the Assassins—because it teaches you to never meet your heroes.

Assassin's Creed Rogue feels like a DLC for Black Flag, but it does provide a refreshing take on the whole narrative while maintaining the fun swashbuckling, parkour, and death from the previous entry. I enjoyed experiencing being a Templar, and seeing how the leadership of a known-as-good movement (i.e. the Assassins) can threaten or manipulate the ideals that built it.

I wouldn't recommend Rogue for the gameplay per se, but for the story—but the gameplay is fun, definitely.

My opinion will be very unpopular as the masses did not like this game at launch and nor do they like it today but if you ask me, its one of the finest and tight experiences AC has ever delivered. Has very low amount of padding, great parallels drawn between the struggle of the assassins and templars, gameplay feels familiar with the speedkill mechanic (same as ac3. black flag). The game suffered because it was overshadowed by Unity which, back then, was a buggy mess unlike today its one of the best AC games gameplay wise and visuals wise. All in all get this game on a sale the base price isnt worth it as the game is short but its worth it for the discounted price it gets.

good gameplay

Pretty fun game ngl

I recently bought the game, it was my favourite assassins creed game. I played through the story then I realised I don't have any of the DLC in game. Although they are marked in the DLC tab in steam so they must install with the game, I don't find any of the DLC content in my game, not even one. So if anyone can help me I will appreciate it.

good story

second best to black flag but still very good and very well planned story

good game quick and fun

love this game. and played almost all the instalments before

Good news, this game is awesome and I highly recommend it if you focus on the franchise's timeline

Bad news, I'm a Templar now. Save me from the corruption that comes later pls

I really appreciate this game for several reasons. It provides a lot of enhancements from AC4, especially within combat, world exploration and small game play qualities. Exploring New York, River Valley, and the North Atlantic is extremely fun and offers a fresh change from the Caribbean in AC4. I also extremely appreciate the plot itself. It offers a separate perspective of morality between the templars and assassins. AC1 offered this, that neither side are bad guys, it all depends on your interpretation of morality in the achievement of peace. Though the Ezio trilogy disrupted this by making each Templar an indisputable bad guy. AC rogue helps bring back the idea that in some situations, the Templars might be able to do a lot better than the assassins.

Most of the downsides regarding AC rogue happen to coincide with the plot as well. It had so much potential to be even better than AC4, however there are a few moments that let it down. Firstly, it's really short. There are a lot of locations and extra content to explore, that outweighs the amount of story missions that can be played. Additionally, Shay's betrayal of the assassins is very quick and lacks substance. I feel like there should have been more development on his relationship with everyone in the assassins, to make that betrayal more difficult. Shay's betrayal should have been more forced, however he's made to seem like the black sheep and irrational in his decision. Another issue is that after the betrayal, the assassins become the villains suddenly. I don't mind if they introduce a contradictory persona like this, if it's recognised as being contradictory, which it isn't. It would have been better to simply have Shay explore his disapproval of the assassin's methods, exploring a route that he's better suited towards. However, the assassins in this game are not expressive of the identity that's presented in previous titles. Perhaps if the game was given more focus, while Unity was being fixed and perfected for a later release, both titles could have had a better reception.

I really appreciate this game, despite it's short comings. If they had made it into a "anti-AC1", I think it would have played a better route. Allow Achilles to become obsessed with personal gain, or some other motive, that pushes Shay away and disrupts the creed of the assassins. It would have been a lot better if they explored Shay's distrust of the templars, that sometimes their methods are beneficial and sometimes they go against Shay's character. And do the same for the assassins. Plus, allowing for Shay's development in character, rather than a sudden switch in sides. He constantly praises the protection of the innocent... yet there's no desynchronisation when he does harm innocents. Either he becomes a Templar, but maintains his beliefs as a past assassin, or he fully embraces the Templar identity, not both.

But either way, I think this game is worth exploring! It offers a unique experience that other titles don't provide.

This is the last classical engine Assassin's Creed. I came to this game after finishing Odyssey. The character moves like an 18 wheeler. Fights are slow. Damage is incomprehensible. Parkour is horrible. You go where you don't want to go, character jumps to emptiness from unwanted places.

I also do not understand who in their right mind created an NPC that insults your whenever she talks to you... Why should I be subjected to his idiocy?

Anyway, it's the last classical Assassin's Creed. Take it or leave it. I took it in the sake of nostalgia.

I am really saddened that a save bug made me lose everything I'd done: I'd been expecting a game where you play as the templars for a long time and it being done with the Blac Flag formula was a happy surprise. The game is really good and the characters are interesting to follow with a neat gameplay and good graphics.

Take it on a sale though, it's still a Ubisoft game.

AC: Rogue is less of a game and more of a stand alone expansion for AC4: Black Flag. Expect all the same ship boarding shenanigans, upgrade system, and island exploring goodness. Legendary ship battles return, but with a twist. Now they consist of historical battles in which you and a group of British ships face a enemy fleet with the Legendary as its flagship.

The visuals of the North Atlantic can be a let down when compared to the stunning beauty of The Caribbean; and the story may be a bit forgettable when compared to its predecessor, but overall a good attempt at bringing the Black Flag formula to another setting. Technical performance also seems to lag behind AC4 with moderate texture pop-in and occasional glitches. As stated above the story is just meh. While the idea of playing as a Templar seems unique, the implementation of this offers little nuance and the cast is forgettable at best.

Everyone knows of the Ezio Trilogy. That is probably due to the obvious connection and Ubisoft's "Ezio Trilogy" collection. However, Rogue is part of a little known trilogy in the series. This story is effectively both a sequel to Black Flag and a prequel to Assassin's Creed 3. Rogue ties these games together by including either characters from, or descendants/ancestors from both games. This effectively creates a trilogy that when played chronologically would look like this: Black Flag, Rogue, AC3. Although, if you care more about ending with a bang, I would play them in reverse chronological order as Black Flag is clearly the best of these games.

TL;DR
If you liked Black Flag and want more, it is worth picking up on a Steam Sale.

This game is really underrated , rogue offers a unique experience of being a templar as well as an interesting story of shay's betrayal to the brotherhood and his redemption arc , truly a beautiful masterpiece , I highly recommend this game , play this game especially after playing the other assassin's creed games will give a deeper understanding on this game. Ac rogue deserves a higher rating , definitely my top 3 favorite ac games.

extremely under rated, its so fun being on the templar said instead of assassins.and even tho i havnt played black flag the navel system is so much fun.my only complant so far is that its weird how the assassins are the one dimensional bad guy all of the sudden its kinda weird but im able to over look it for the gameplay and most of the characters.

I really liked the story, it included some characters from AC: Black Flag, AC: III, and even AC: Unity. The gameplay hasn't really aged that well, but there is something about it that makes it so much fun.

After just finishing AC: Mirage, there is something special about the Kenway Saga, the combat is very simple but so enjoyable. My only issue is that upgrades weren't really needed except for on the Morrigan, Shay's upgrades could be skipped and it wouldn't change the game.

In terms of Assassin's Creed, I don't think it gets any better that this. I really hope Ubisoft makes a modern game from the Templar side.

its like a fine game you could buy it if its only on sale

best game story ubisoft ever made with low story compelesion

Its not as bad as people say, i also dont agree that this is one of the best and most underrated ac games. charectors arent as likable as other games, i was extreamly mad at the main dude half the time. maybe im just bias cause all the other games i was on the assasins side. but the french revolution series is great.
remember the order is:

black flag
rogue
ac III
unity


(vague spoilers ahead)

i dont realy like the way they put the story cause in my opinion the main character is a bit too explosive (u dont agree? than ill kill you) and the masters are incredibly not understanding( ur a protedgy u dont know if what you did(destroy a city) is really what u did) t

I don't know how to feel about this game,
I feel like Its a good concept but the plot line feels shallow, it could have been so much more.
The game was enjoyable but, the collectables are the bane of me, If I dont collect everything at a location my soul wouldn't feel at ease.
This game Is a pre AC3 and it explains some stuff that happened but not everything.
Mechanics:
Compared to black flag this introduces new mechanics that are annoying while you are just free roaming, Such as stalkers I still don't get the purpose of stalkers after 30 Hours of gameplay they are annoying and can really be a nuance having to hear that sound all the time when you just want to parkour. Ejecting and free running feels horrible at times I cant stand, Parkour does not feel smooth in the slightest.

Verdict I would highly recommend this game Its a fresh perspective we didn't have before in AC, But again I do not support giving ubisoft any money so find another way to play it. Buy a PS3 disk and play it on an emulator or on a ps3.

Medicore recommend. This is the same game as the last game but told from a Templar perspective. If you like Assassin's Creed and loved the sailing in Black Flag, easy recommend. If you like games like this, but not necessarily AC, there are better.

this game is great, but too short and too many collectibles

This is my favorite game in the series!
While I hate that the story is very short and that there are some plot points that simply feel unpolished and incomplete, I adore Assassin's Creed Rogue.
The scenery is stunning and the game contains Great Auks!
Shay is an intriguing character and overall it's a different take on the series.
Besides, we own an op ship with a lot of fire power.
Speaking of ships: While not having changed much in comparison to Black Flag, the ship mechanics are a lot nicer. (I am probably biased since I am the biggest puckle gun fan. Swivel guns are nothing compared to those)
10/10 Game (100/10 if they somehow fixed the story and give it more depth, since the idea itself is SO GOOD)

Honestly, the start of Assassin's Creed Rogue is rather dull, and the quality similar to that of Assassin's Creed III can be sensed. However, it becomes interesting in the mid-game. Overall, it's recommended. The downside is that as it was released in the same year as Assassin's Creed Unity, one can perceive the lack of funds. Its graphics are even worse than Assassin's Creed Black Flag. Initially, I really considered a refund, but it turned out okay later. It would be better if Ubisoft put more effort into it. After all, the story theme is novel. Another drawback is that the shanties while sailing aren't as good as those in Black Flag.

(ENGLISH + SPANISH)

Assassin's Creed Rogue is, without a doubt, the best game in the entire franchise. Or rather, it has the best story of all the Assassin's Creed games. In this installment, we step into the shoes of Shay Patrick Cormac, an assassin who, due to fate and his principles, ends up joining the Templar side. And this is where the game truly shines, because it shows us everything from a completely different perspective. We're used to always siding with the Assassins, but this time, we see the conflict between the Templars and Assassins from the other side, giving the plot a very interesting twist.

When you really think about it, you realize that the Templars also have valid reasons to fight for what they believe in, just like the Assassins. That moral ambiguity is one of the game's strongest points because it makes you question whether "good" and "evil" are really as clear-cut as they seemed. Shay's character development is excellent; his evolution throughout the story feels natural and gripping. Honestly, it’s a refreshing change from what we usually see in Assassin's Creed games.

After having played the previous installments, I can confidently say that Assassin's Creed Rogue has the best story and the best protagonist in the entire saga. The soundtrack is amazing, and the exploration, as always, is very well done. Now, if I had to criticize something, it's that the collectibles can get a bit tedious after a while, but in the end, they enrich the open world and add to the experience of interacting with the environment.

And let’s not forget about the easter eggs, which are brilliantly placed, making you feel part of the whole *Assassin's Creed* universe. In short, this game is highly recommended, and for me, it’s a must-play in the franchise. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just starting out, Rogue is a gem you simply can't miss.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Assassin's Creed Rogue es, sin lugar a dudas, el mejor juego de toda la franquicia. O mejor dicho, tiene la mejor historia de todos los Assassin's Creed. En esta entrega nos metemos en la piel de Shay Patrick Cormac, un asesino que, por cuestiones del destino y de principios, termina pasándose al bando de los templarios. Y acá es donde el juego realmente brilla, porque nos muestra todo desde una perspectiva completamente distinta. Estamos acostumbrados a ponernos siempre del lado de los asesinos, pero esta vez vemos el conflicto entre templarios y asesinos desde el otro bando, lo que le da una vuelta de tuerca muy interesante a la trama.

Cuando te pones a pensar en serio, te das cuenta de que los templarios también tienen motivos válidos para luchar por lo que creen, al igual que los asesinos. Esa ambigüedad moral es uno de los puntos más fuertes del juego, porque te hace cuestionarte si realmente el "bien" y el "mal" son tan claros como parecían. El desarrollo de Shay es excelente; su evolución a lo largo de la historia se siente natural y atrapante. La verdad, es un cambio de aire muy fresco para lo que solemos ver en los Assassin's Creed.

Después de haber jugado las entregas anteriores, te puedo asegurar sin dudar que Assassin's Creed Rogue tiene la mejor historia y al mejor protagonista de toda la saga. La banda sonora es espectacular, y la exploración, como siempre, está muy bien lograda. Ahora, si tengo que hacer una crítica, es que los coleccionables pueden volverse medio pesados después de un rato, pero al final del día, enriquecen el mundo abierto y le suman a la experiencia de interactuar con el entorno.

Los easter eggs están puestos de manera genial, haciéndote sentir parte de todo el universo Assassin's Creed. En resumen, este juego es altamente recomendable, y para mí, es un must play de la franquicia. Si sos fan de la saga o incluso si recién empezás, Rogue es una joya que no te podés perder.

Ngl the writing is terrible, however the templar theme is quite good, overall a fun game to play with loads of weapons, outfits and gear, when this game is on discount i recommend it however when on full price bit useless.

Alright, lads. You want Blackbeard's honest opinion? Ubisoft should've significantly delayed Unity in order to further develop Rogue into the game it deserves to be. In terms of gameplay, Rogue feels like the pinnacle of the Kenway trilogy, even in spite of the clear asset flipping. In terms of scale, the game is clearly an afterthought. The campaign is done well, but there isn't really anything additional on a comparable scale to the Captain Kidd missions in 3, the Templar Hunts in Rogue, or even just the crime scene investigations in Unity. Once you finish the campaign, there really isn't much else to do besides clearing up the markers on your map.

The game that IS there, however, is incredible. I was lucky enough to swipe it while the deluxe edition was on sale for $10, and remember asking myself why I never tried the game sooner multiple times while I played. As for the standard $20/$30 price tag, I'd say it's worth it, but there are also probably better ways to spend that money. Keep an eye out for sales if you want to play the game on a tighter budget.

Gameplay is basically the same as Black Flag so that's fine. Unfortunately, the story isn't quite as good. Being able to see from the Templar perspective was very interesting and Shay is super likeable, but I thought his turn to the Templars happened too quickly. There could've been more story time dedicated to his gradual turn. Good game, not as good as Black Flag, but it did scratch the itch for more of that style of gameplay.

even with the big change in story, it still isn't interesting. gameplay forces you to level up in free-roam to continue the main missions, which is something i despise strongly. climbing still full of bugs, nice graphics.

Ubisoft is the most consumer-exploitative business in gaming, constant issues with connect and managing my account.

I know AC Rogue is kind of a short game but I absolutely loved Shay's story! It took me right at 15 1/2 hours to beat the game but the naval combat and the story were great. It runs very good on my modern PC with no issues. I got this game for $4 on sale and it was well worth that.

i liked the appearances of characters from other games, like haytham and arno

the gang stalkers function is quite fun
