3's issues are not QoL related, but the fact that the location, the story and the game are boring for most of AC fans. Having decent characters doesn't help if everything else is shit.
The locations are so lacking compared to the other AC games that is not even funny.
Plus the major pacing and mission design issues, along with a bunch of systems that aren't cohesive at all. Did you know there's crafting in AC3? I have no idea why it exists, but it sure is there.
3 deserves the title of worst AC.
3 has the best setting in the series and an amazing character dynamic in Connor and Haytham.
Sure, America is a better setting than italian Reinassance lol
The plight of the Native Americans is more interesting and/or underserved, IMHO.Sure, America is a better setting than italian Reinassance lol
Liberation is included, as is all the solo DLC for AC3.
