If you decide to play any of them, Black Flag and AC2 are essential. I found Black Flag particularly enjoyable. The visuals and the tropical atmosphere enhance its appeal, even on a basic setup, and the ship movement significantly improves the experience. I highly recommend giving it a try if you enjoy any of these titles.
The timeline seems to be: Brotherhood Revelations IV, Rogue III, Unity Syndicate, and Freedom Cry. The end of Rogue marks the beginning of Unity. I haven't played Liberations or Freedom Cry, but they likely fall within the same periods as III and IV. I'm hoping developers address the performance problems for the upcoming titles. Unity has been disappointing me, though—it looks great but is hard to play.
