Assassin's Creed III

So far it's pretty bad ass. I had a lot of people tell me it was a bit of a slow start but I actually like the first two sequences. The only thing that is pissing me off is I keep forgetting about those damn floating pages once I complete a level, remember it, go chasing after it and it disappears.

Is the game always so linear or once you become the main character does it become more free roam/side missions type of game?
