At the least it isn't 40+ dollars. I'll give them credit for that.

the scale is quite small and it's clear they cut corners, but it has some interesting ideas.
at a low price it's worth trying.
The original game was a worthy Assassin's Creed game, so I can't imagine the HD port being and different.
Would you say it's better than AC3? I tried to get into that game but really didn't like the cities or the pacing of the opening. AC4 is actually the first AC I've played all the way through.
It was my second favorite AC game after AC2 until I played AC4. The protagonist is great and the story presentation is perhaps the best in the series yet. There were some technical hiccups on the Vita that they eventually fixed, but it's an actual AC game that easily measures up to the console releases.
In short, yes it's better than AC3.
I'm a biggest AC fan you can find, and i think Liberation wasn't worthy of the title of Assassin's Creed. It's even worse than the original game.

Agree, love AC and didnt like Liberation at all, it was kind of a mess.
It is not. The resolution on vita is 960x544.

The Vita version was most certainly not HD by any sane person's definition.
Besides running at a respectable resolution, I imagine they will have cleaned up the awful audio from the Vita version, and implemented higher quality assets. I assume it will also have a tolerable frame rate, unlike the Vita version.
And Liberation was most definitely not rendered in the Vita's native resolution.
The Vita versions frame rate was perfectly tolerable with some noticeable dips during some scenes.
Regardless though, I'm sure the HD version will have those dips cleaned up.

The game was sub native on vita and the framerate was fucking garbage.

Different people have different tolerance levels, I suppose, but the game was almost constantly below 30fps. When running around town, it was frequently in the low 20s and high teens.
Just take a look at this Eurogamer analysis:

I couldn't play it.

Downloading now on PS3. Would have loved a PS4 version though. I enjoyed Aveline a lot as a character on the Vita version, but the performance and poorly explained mini games really held this one back from being enjoyable.
I'm hoping this version is solid. I enjoyed 4 way more than expected and it really pulled me back into the series.

The frame rate was not tolerable. 30 is tolerable, but what felt like 15 on the Vita, wasn't. I just wanted to finish Liberation for the story and that was a feat in itself because the reduced frame rate also welcomed higher input lag.
I'm pretty sure it will be a lot better with the HD version, especially the PC version that I'm aiming to get within the year. Game wasn't that bad outside my frame rate issue. Maybe a solid 7.0 and for the length of the game 15-20 dollars is a good release date pice.
So even though it's supposed to unlock tomorrow, I downloaded it now as a "Trial version". Seems to put me in the middle of the game, it will probably let me play everything tomorrow.
It's VERY buggy so far. Enemies appear out of nowhere (and they aren't visible on the mini-map), I couldn't loot a chest, my hidden blades are getting deselected at various intervals. During the first mission the enemies seem to notice me even if I'm hidden from their sight.
Also the city is pretty quiet. By that I mean both the lack of people on the streets and lack of dialogue.
The upgraded graphics are nice, but you can see very low quality assets (like the hay carts).
I do hope they will release a patch tomorrow, because right now playing this sucks :/

I bought it on PS4, but could never figure out how to access that DLC.

That sucks, was really looking forward to this..

So this is a digital only release? Would have loved to have a physical disc release, just to go with the rest of my AC collection.
XBLA on xbox 360 and psn on ps3.
I haven't played Liberation because I don't have a Vita. I definitely want to pick it up, but can anyone tell me what the proper order to play Liberation and the Liberation content in Black Flag would be?
Right from the main menu, should be in the top right tile

There is a disc version for PC in Germany. That's the only one I know.
The Vita version did not have any Uplay integration as far as I know.
There's a Uplay option on the main menu but when I checked, the rewards and goals lists were empty. (PS3.)
Yeah that's why I'm curious. I guess they may just want it to connect to their service maybe. But if there are no rewards/actions there isn't much use for the option on consoles.
Maybe they're just not up yet. *shrug*
