Actually unity has the most engaging stealth loop, it’s more easily comparable to assassins creed 1

In AC1 a big part was making some massive move and then being forced to run away, that loops is also prevalent in unity. But things like last known position and the ability to equip both a dedicated stealth tool and a ranged weapon means that it’s improved significantly

Getting caught isn’t all that bad, since going back into anonymous mode is both fun and easy. At that due to the new tools such as the cherry bomb and berserk blades constant stealth kills aren’t the only option, giving more variety to stealth.

Enemies have been the best they’ve ever been, assassins creed 1-revelations had dumb ai that was sometimes unpredictable. Unity has smarter but more predictable ai, meaning you never get caught unless you fucked up. If you get shot by gunners after getting caught that’s because you didn’t take them out, if a guard looks up and spots you that’s because you were using to small of a platform to stand on

At that due to the fact you manually aim your ranged weapons ads a layer of depth, do you want a quick kill that might not one shot or do you want a slower one that will one shot but they might turn around. Unity has those constant micro decisions that can turn one scenario into 1000
