So. Assassin's Creed 2.

[Haylie]

So far...

F***ing. Epic.

It no longer feels monotonous. The cutscenes are no longer stand-around-and-listen. They're actually INTERESTING.

There are more ways than ever to kill people.

The notoriety system is realistic, to a point.

Y'know what? Just play.

The first one was a big disappointment for me. I'd been so excited about it since before it even had a name. I really enjoy the hitman and splinter cell games, and the idea of killing a target without anyone even realising you were there, but you couldn't really do that with Assassin's Creed. The cities were fun to climb and run around, but the way you gathered information was forced and un-neccessary, and the assassinations were just so straight forward and generic? Why couldn't I steal someone's clothes, walk in and poison someone's drink?
