Splinter Cell: Conviction. I’ve never played the predecessors that people rave about but Conviction is intense and has some of the best stealth mechanics in any game.

Watch_Dogs got a lot of shit when it first came out for not living up to expectations, but like Cyberpunk 2077, what is there is a really compelling and well-executed crime drama with some fun gameplay gimmicks.

Far Cry 3 is what many consider to be the last good Far Cry. I’d argue Far Cry 4 is since it’s in the mountains and you have a climbable, swingable grappling hook AND a wing suit.

For Honor is an incredible cross between 3rd person action and a fighting game a la Mortal Kombat. It’s the best 3rd person multiplayer game available.

Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag is the absolute best story driven pirate video game in existence.

Rainbow Six: Siege is easily the smartest, most intellectually stimulating competitive FPS ever made. If you put in the time to learn all the core mechanics well, then it becomes incredibly rewarding to uncover all the creative ways you can utilize the unique abilities of all the operators.

Immortals: Fenyx Rising is surprisingly good. It's basically Breath of the WIld without weapon breaking and no annoying weather preventing you from climbing things.

None of them

Black Flag

The Splinter Cell series is also fun!

Watch Dogs 2 is one of my all-time favorite games

The multiplayer mini games in it were so fun, though I'm not sure how many people engage in current year

But the whole game is worth playing, even if some of it seems quaint by today's standards

Easy choices honestly. From better to worse: Rayman Legends, Far Cry 3, Prince of Persia Sands of Time, Assassin's Creed 4, Rainbow 6 Siege (only if you have friends to play with you)

Shoutout to Trackmania (2020) as well. Loads of fun if you're a fan of racing, but it's sadly behind a subscription service and isn't a one-time purchase.

• Rayman Origins
• Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
• Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

I actually don't like any other Ubisoft games enough to put on a list next to these three. That's not to say everything else is bad, just that the okayness of other things I like kind of blurs together and makes it impossible to say one is better than another.

Beyond Good and Evil is the only game from Ubi I remember to have played I liked

My top 5:

1. Assassin's Creed 2
2. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood

They are peak Ubisoft and the only games I'd say fall close to 'must-play'.

Rayman Origins and Legends are good picks if you're into 2D platformers. Both pretty old and Rayman isn't exactly a super relevant franchise anymore but these game are good and likely cheap. Not quite Super Mario Wonder but not far off.

Definitely play with a controller rather than KB+M

I had fun with ac Valhalla, but i generally don't like Ubisoft games

Surprised nobody's said The Division yet. The first one is incredible fun IMO, and the second one is good, but not as much fun.

Watch Dogs 2 - They added more hacking gameplay. The characters are good. It's multiplayer is fun. But the story is sub-par. Due to it's pacing.

Far Cry 3 - It's so good. Ubisoft copied it's formula for all Far Cry games after it.

Assassin's Creed - Great stealth, parkour gameplay, and how it used of it's time period. Makes AC1 great. But it's repetitive missions, boring open world outside of the cities, and Desmond part of the story. Really hurts the game.

The Anno series is pretty fun if you like the genre. I put several hours into Anno 1800 and enjoyed it. I'll likely get back to it at some point.

Far Cry 3 and 4 are my favorites, 5 is OK. Those are the only Ubi games I'd care to recommend. 3 is pretty old.

Far cry 5 is one of my favorite far cry games so I definitely recommend it.

Purged by creator

Gonna throw in a shout out to AC's spritual precursor, Prince of Persia. Also can't go wrong with Rayman or Rabbids.

All the main Splinter Cell games. Relics of a time when Ubisoft games were good.
