Black Flag's combat may have been a total cakewalk, but at least it had its novelty
This article analyzes the combat changes in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Resynced, arguing that while it offers some improvements like kicks-on-demand, it fundamentally misunderstands the original game's combat by removing weapon variety and situational tools. The author contends that the removal of temporary weapons and the simplification of combat mechanics detract from the core Assassin's Creed experience, making Resynced feel like a different game rather than a true remake.
