Again with taking my response!Outright Villainy said:
Though I sometimes wish that someone would put Assassins Creed and Hitman Blood Money in a teleporter together at the same time. That would be the best game ever, since it's usually the Benny Hill style chase sequences before you assassinate some fleeing fat guy who can somehow run as fast as you where the game falls apart, atmosphere-wise. If you had poisoned his wine, impersonated his guard, etc etc etc...
Man. Going to have pleasant dreams tonight.
Man, that would be fucking awesome. I actually thought the stealth was a little weak in Ass creed actually. Ezio is quite clumsy to move stealthily, and your options are limited to "stab this guy and run away", or "wait until he's over here, then stab him and run away"Serenegoose said:
The inventive deaths of hitman with the setting of Ass creed would make me trip all the balls!
NO BALL LEFT UNTRIPPED.
To be fair, the Crusades and Renaissance Italy are both fresh new settings with a perfect urban environment.
Of course, putting on my cynical hat, you just know AC3 is going to be set in Next-Gen City. The rain pours down and police sirens wail in the distance as you pull yourself up rusty fire escapes and run along power lines. You thought smoke bombs were cheap? Try EMPs, sniper rifles and dual hidden pistols.

Not really. just shoot the space king with the crossbow from Brotherhood and watch him depressurize and explode in his own suit. (give me a moment to relish that sadistic thought will ya!)ForgottenPr0digy said:
OT: Brotherhood is 'basically' an Expansion to AC2; only, NO one can complain about it being full price, since it adds so much (unlike a certain 'other' recent vegas;i mean game). but AC3 'should' be based entirely in the present/near future/2012 to round off the main trilogy. i have a good feeling that they'll release it at around this time in two years since the plot has so much to do with 2012 anyway, they shouldn't release it any sooner or later.
However, once they ARE done with the main trilogy.....well, lets just say that this is one Dead Horse i'll be happy to see getting beaten to a bloody pulpy mess....... a bloody, pulpy mess with top hats and dinosaurs!
I'd wanna do space assasinations as Lobo! This is an awesome idea and even if it never happens I'm happy that AC: Brotherhood is a good game.
This I cannot understand. For me Assassin's Creed 2 was nearly the perfect game. The one thing that keeps the series from achieving true perfection is the STUPID STUPID present day storyline.Onyx Oblivion said:
[SPOILERS}
The second game had a brilliant story of growing up, betrayal, revenge and knowledge. It could so so easily have stood alone (as could the first in terms of gameplay), yet they felt the need to chuck a stupid magical conspiracy behind it. I was truly disappointed that after a game which has a brilliant personal story, as well as a beutifully crafted hugely historically accurate game world, the ending basically says "yeah Ezio is not important. Also say hi to a god, turns out theres a magical conspiracy going on"
Both games have pulled off this marvelous personal story and immersive world, then let an awful connecting story undermine everything you achieve in order to obtain it.
just sayin'
Victorian Era England would be prime real estate for a new Creed game...speaking of, my version arrived last night, so I'll be playing it later. Nice to know that it's Oh so very good.
Me too, I would love to have a game set more close to home, and being a fan of silly hats the period costumes would be funny tooMissing SHODAN said:

OMFG how cool would it be to go toe to toe with some of Victorian Europe's finest? Like Sherlock Holmes(yes, fictional, but come on...) or even Moriarty. Maybe hopefully Jack the Ripper.
Maybe even you play as Jack the Ripper?
He was actually an assassin, and the reason for the assassinations were known only to him and, well, Desmond.

I agree completely, especially about AC2's story. Everything after the fist fight with the Pope (greatest boss fight ever, by the way) was just awful. The magic rock's powers are vaguely established, it's origin is nonsensical, and it's little more than a glowing deus ex machina.Darkstrike_11 said:
In the words of Yahtzee, no one likes Future Desmond!
As bullshit as I found their use of good ol' destiny I found the part in which Ezio finds out he's essentially inconsequential was brilliantly done. Having the hologram scold him as he stammers and demands answers was a harsh, but well written, moment.Darkstrike_11 said:
I quite like the future segments too. Mostly because they give you a tiny glimpse of the world Desmond lives in. The fact you could just not quite make out of the buildings outside the window in AC1 was tantalising in the extreme.
I still think that the original plan for AC2 taking place in the Mayan empire in pre-columbian america would have been cooler.
