The gameplay or story aren't guilty of missteps or shortcuts, with beats in both the historic and modern sides of the campaign sure to please the most devoted fans of Assassin's Creed lore. But whether it's a case of Black Flag's novelty wearing off, or simply a less ambitious goal from the outset, Rogue feels like an attempt to offer more, not a standalone experience. But given how well-received Black Flag was, in the end, that may be enough for many players.
Awesomenauts is a game that walks a very difficult tightrope, and for the most part, does so with a good deal of success. Cracking the code and delivering a game that entices both the casual and hardcore crowd is no small feat, and Ronimo has done a (mostly) solid job. Anyone who doesn’t need the acronym MOBA explained to them will almost definitely enjoy what this game serves up. The other crowd however will either be completely turned off by the beating they will take for the first few hours of play, or be driven to persevere because of the solid gameplay. Awesomenauts has plenty more to give than its ten dollar asking price would suggest, but the night and day experiences one might have from match to match make it difficult to suggest to everyone. To MOBA or not to MOBA is indeed the question.
