Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced lets you turn off the HUD as Ubisoft baked all the information you need into its animations, like enemies who lose their hats when their defense is broken

Cluttered menus and HUDs are an increasingly common source of headache in games. Thankfully, Ubisoft is avoiding the problem entirely by letting players hide every single part of Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced's HUD, and you might not miss it as much as you'd expect since enemies themselves will basically tell you when they're ready for your hidden blades.

Ubisoft recently elaborated on Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced's reworked combat, one that has a more familiar staggering system. Each enemy now has a defense meter that'll crumble after some pressure – weaker enemies are easily broken, bigger brutes need a little coaxing – and at that point you can go in for a final takedown.
