My thoughts on Assassins Creed Brotherhood
Sorry for letting all followers wait so long, but it took me 2 days for the first playthrough (not 48h) and I had some work to do.
So first of all, my expectations were somehow extremely low. I actually thought it's mainly focused on some crappy Multiplayer-mode and wouldn't take part in the actuall story in single-player. Well I'm glad it's the absolute opposite.
It really only is Assassins Creed 2.5 but the story (which for me is the best part of the game) actually is important and worth playing. The story is also incredibly detailed and almost correct - DaVinci was really working in Rome at that time - the whole story around the Borgia is correct (even though the incest is only old gossip). The probably biggest flaw (of course after the whole Assassin stuff) is, that Macchiavelli actually was an admirer of Cesare Borgia and not an enemy.
WARNING - little Spoiler - The game isn't really that long - it's brutally lengthened with Achievements and billion tons of crap to gather and search. The whole game you'll only be around in Rome NO where else!!! The only thing worth gathering is the Brutus Armor - it looks cool and is (I think) the best you can get - also the quests you have to do, to get the Armor are really nice. All in all AC-B has lots of Indiana Jones parts in it somehow, which I really liked. Of course I don't have to add anything to the gameplay, there's really nothing else (or not much)
So guys... if you liked the first two parts, you'll really like this part, the story isn't bad, the quests are nicely thought through (even the small ones); so it's up to you, if 2-3 days of fun are worth the money.
Also thanks to everyone for the suggestion on games I should review - I'll come back to them late, but I allready found 1-2 new games I'd like to review, but first I have to get them somehow (Fatal Frame 4 for Wii - I'll need a working iso + english Patch)
Might pick this up.
