Taking in account that the original Assassin's Creed was still awsome even with all it's flaws, this game might actually be the mesias?
 
lol@CAN swim and "ease" dropping, phail@doctors

See, from what I understand about the way the game is supposed to work, if something happens inside the Animus that didn't actually happen during the ancestor's memory, it damaged your syncronization. Now with the implementation of health, it makes it all seem so much more fake.

Le sigh.
 
Yeah, I'm a little wary of the health system this time - I liked the old one where you could just parry attacks until your health went up.
 
I hope the health system works out. The old one was fine, but made the game way too easy.

Why try to hide when I could kill anything that attacked me?
 
I read that list of things in the sequel before and all I can say is..




There is NO WAY that I am not getting this. First day buy if they deliver. Let's just hope the voice actor won't have an American accent that sticks out like they did with Altair, really killed the immersion for me.

Everyone complained about that, but it didn't bother me. I figured, since your hearing it as if Desmond was saying it, since it's all pretty much in his mind anyway, you would hear it as if he was speaking.

you're*

Wasn't it supposed to be one of his ancestors? Which means they should speak as they speak then? What you said crossed my mind too, but it still sucked regardless.
 
It was one of his ancestors...But it was still all taking place in Desmond's head, since the Animus is just playing it in his head only...

I don't know I didn't find his voice to be a problem either
 
If you're going to have mental hurdles with the accent then you should also have them with the fact that he was speaking American, but no, that was mostly gladly accepted as reasonable because the mind the events were recurring in didn't know Arabic. Probably shouldn't nitpick the extremities while ignoring the more internal workings, but since it was just a natural response, can't blame you.
So, really, if the character has a horrible Italian accent and still has the diction and word choice of my neighbor, then I'll be pissed about that even if other people might be happy. Still sounds like a possibly great and entertaining game, so I give it four anticipatory high fives out of a possible five.
 
Wow, looks like a much better game. They've really gone in and fixed all the big flaws in the first one... ESPECIALLY doing the same missions over and over and over. Jeez, that was annoying.

is it new?

i only hear it now what kind of game is that?
 
I don't have a problem with some games being easy. Not everything needs to be a serious challenge. If it delivers a solid experience, and being godly is part of that, then I see no problem.
