I was thinking of giving Assassin's Creed a try. I've never played one. I'm not going to play them all. Which one should I play? Call of Duty is another one I've never played. Let this be a thread to debate the best game in long-runnings series and help me decide what to play.

I’ve only played AC2 and CoD Ghosts and WW2. I can’t really recommend any since i’ve only played a fraction.

Not a big AC fan, but from what I gather Black Flag is generally regarded as the high water mark

I'd say that Odyssey has surpassed it, but they're both up there.

Are there any entries that are generally considered the worst?

Which was the one where the cutscenes were all just lips and eyeballs?

It’s BotW by a lot. If weapons didn’t break so often and rain didn’t leave me standing on the side of a hill so frequently, it’d be a perfect game.
