The game was delayed two weeks, suffered comical and even horrific-looking glitches, and had the chutzpah to offer a purchase of $99 worth of in-game currency.
The product that shipped was famously broken, the response to that had its own failures and, for good measure, the apology it offered arrived with a chunk of lawyerly language that made even that feel cynical and insincere. Other titles may have done more inept things, but Assassin's Creed Unity seemed to do all of them. Assassin's Creed Unity seemed helpless to stay out of trouble in the months leading up to a disastrous launch. All major video games will, during development, brush up against some petty controversy in interacting with a relentlessly unsatisfied public. It means that no one game was more 2014 than this one, for all of the wrong reasons.
Assassin's Creed Unity is the game of 2014, and that's not meant as an honor or a compliment.
