    Just got this today, and just got up to the point where you become Batman, I mean, an assassin. So far I'm likin' it a lot more than the first game. The bigger variety of missions is great, the blend mechanic is way better, and Ezio seems like a much more rounded character than Altair.

    Though I do hope that you eventually get to find out what happened to Altair after the end of the first game.

    Forgot to mention from last night, this is the first current gen game that i have got all achievements on, only to then go and start playing it again. Its actually kinda nice to play it while not worrying about getting those fuckers. It makes me realize just how much i dislike achievements, yet i am addicted to them.

    I don't really worry about them at all. I don't see the point in doing something that I don't have fun doing without reward. Or much reward. Or one I care about.

    the only achievements left that i realistically expect i'll get just dicking around are the ones for buying whores and tripping people

    This game is so good it's mindblowing.

    I don't think I've ever played a sequel that was so much better than the first.

    so many flaws with the original got fixed

    every assassination different, no more dumb overworld, combat deepened, more shit to do, that whole villa thing, weapons/armour/dyeing clothes, far better designed cities, better characters, playing after completion of the main story made far less of a hassle

    captaink is the not-mod. Captain K is the mod.

    Also I do like the city thing. Unfortunately I am spending basically all of my money on it instead of buying me stuff so I figure I will run out of stuff to do there soon.

    Also I felt really bad because after going on a guard murder-spree, I decided to test my poison dagger on a civilian and holy crap I just felt bad. I mean sure I guess I could have done it to a dickish guard or one of those fucking bards, but I just felt bad for this guy. He probably had a family and everything. I ended up stabbing him in the neck to end his suffering.

    Spoiler when you have to hunt down four assassination targets about mid-game
    I poisoned the two archers on the tower and they swung wildly and killed my assassination target. 8-)

    It makes more sense to me that you can play the random stuff rather than the missions. If you want to play the missions you can start a new game?

    But what if I want to play one of the earlier missions with some of the later items? Or just want to do one bit of one mission over again.

    I mean If I want to play the random stuff I could make a new game as well.

    So, basically. Maaaan whaaaaaat? No.

    I've never really been all that big on New Game +. I personally don't have fun playing through old areas with weapons that are overpowered for the area.

    I only do that if there are collectibles that I missed earlier in the game and the overpowered weapons will make it easier to get them

    AC doesn't really have that problem though

    I beat this last night! Solid game, and the story was pretty cool. Can't wait for the DLC, I'd love to run around a bit more. Didn't get all the feathers, though - I figure I'll do that when the DLC comes out so as not to burn myself out on the game.
