Assassin's Creed was stupid?, Err... the first one, not second... Options

[kayden997]

So, I finished playing Assassin's Creed for the second time and talked about it to my friends. They both agreed that the game was stupid in the end

I don't really understand how a game filled with awesome dialogue between Warren and Desmond are so amazing! The parts about society and history fascinates me (the fighting was an upside too)

I don't know, I like how the game works out with it's history, but others think different

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. They may feel that way about the game. =\
At any rate, they are not qualified to call it "stupid". They would need to develop a game that sells better, and is more popular, prior to being given the "authority" to discredit the game in any legitimate fashion. =P

So it's just an opinion, and I think they are incorrect. The game was quite enjoyable, and is a fresh idea by comparison to yet another Call of Duty, or another Halo game. (I liked both series, to a degree, but they weren't better as "series" as Assassin's Creed was - in my most humble opinion.)

I never actually finished number 1, despite absolutely smashing my way almost perfectly through number 2 (and after tommorrow, hopefully Brotherhood ). Reason being I found number 1 way too repetitive and therefore boring. It basically played out like this:
You, go here, find this guy, he will tell you who to kill, go kill, go back to random guy, go back to base. So in that respect, yeah its stupid (Although not all the gameplay was bad. Most of it was pretty good). I might be tempted to give this game another go in the new year though .

A problem I found with Assassins Creed 1 and 2 was that when in the free running mode it felt like you were going where the game wanted you to go, I felt like I had very little control of my actions other than the general direction.
They made it far to easy to free run, all you need to do is hold A. :/

Brotherhood was SHORT. but fun

Never in my life would I call AC stupid. As Ezio once said, "People condemn what they do not understand" and by that, those who call it stupid are ignorant. I would agree that it is somewhat repetitive but what game isn't? The story, characters, and combat all make up for it. I know the story itself is fiction...but it really makes you have second thoughts on our so call "religon" these days.
This may be outside the lines but, I once wrote that "Life is far more cryptic than a 'man' written book explains" I'm sure you guys get what I'm talking about. AC just proves it, I guess you can say.

Back on topic, Brotherhood is by far one of the best. One thing I have with this game is the Brotherhood aspect. With a title like that, you would think the Brotherhood would have more emphasis in the game...but all you do is recruit assassins and send them on missions...thats it...

Overall, it is a great series. I hope this isn't the last AC game...Those cliffhangers are really good >_>

Stupid?

I played them all and I haven't found one thing to call stupid, well, if you dive off a short range toward a little, tiny cliff, his body hangs like he's dead, but that doesn't matter xD

For story, it is very original and sometimes, things feel like they repeated themselves, but I don't think I ever felt like it got boring or anything. The acting was great too, and the graphics were pretty great (beautiful if you own a PS3!), interaction was nice, gameplay was nice and even character development.

Overall, it is a great series. I hope this isn't the last AC game...Those cliffhangers are really good >_>

AC sure is good at those cliffhangers. I wonder what Brotherhood's ending will lead to in the next game.
