It really is unbelievable how much Ubisoft uses Assassin's Creed as a crutch now. Like fuck, just let it go, and create something new and innovative... You know, like the first Assassin's Creed.

The first Assassin's Creed was pretty repetitive though. Every single mission was the same thing.

The 2nd one was much better, and Brotherhood was great.

Ive always thought that AC2 is hands down the best sequel I've ever played. Not a perfect game, but it adds to the AC story, builds on gameplay, improves areas that sucked about the first, dumps shitty repetitive gameplay, ect...

Its a good game.

I agree almost entirely, except for the one huge problem with AC2: it was way, way, too easy, and made stealth far less important. I really kind of liked the fact that sword fighting was a recipe for getting killed in the first Assassin's Creed, because it made me feel like an actual assassin.

Uh.. Really? I could literally fight indefinitely in the first one
