I saw through it in the first one: the retarded game within a game thing, and then the ludicrous number of steps required to quit the game. Well played, AC. You fooled me once. Never again.


To me it reeked of trying to be edgy with McHoody Knifeforafinger slaughtering Christian fundamentalists, but it kept giving off the impression that the makers were giant pussies who would pull back. The trailers presenting it as a crowd blending and parkour simulator, then the gameplay videos showed your stealthy assassin taking on half a dozen guards at once with a giant broadsword, dispatching them all with ease using rote counterattacks.
