gigapixels Veteran Posted November 29, 2007 Veteran Share Posted November 29, 2007 It never got boring for me. I'm going through the earlier memories to get investigations I missed at the beginning because I had no clue what I was doing. I might even play through the whole thing again (looks like I missed a convo with Lucy to get the Conversationalist achievement). Combo kills become easier once you just spend a few fights practicing them only. You need to get used to the timing of your hits (short sword hits are quicker than the regular sword), so you can hit X right when you hear the sound (there seems to be some leniency before the sound) of your sword hitting the enemy's. Short sword combo kills generally take 4 or 5 consecutive hits before they actually get the kill, while the regular sword takes 2 or 3 consecutive hits. It gets really easy after a while; I got to the point where most of my kills were combo kills, and not counter kills, and I could take down a group of baddies in half the time that I could before.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted November 30, 2007 Veteran Share Posted November 30, 2007 my new policy of not knowing anything about them first time around That's odd. In AC, the achievements are keeping me from blowing through the game without doing any of the side jobs. I screwed up and did only about 25% of the stuff in Damascus before realizing my mistake.

neoadorable Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 well, it stands to reason there's achievements for saving all citizens, climbing all viewpoints etc, by this juncture most games have rather obvious unlocks, but still, i don't read the lists first time through a game.

.KICK Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Can;t enjoy this game due to no subtitles so therefore I won't play it. No point playing if i don't know what is going on with the story or what I have to do. Shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(seriously asking, no sarcasm) Yeah, I prefer to use subtitles, too, since it tends to be easier to follow along, even for those of us who are fortunate enough to have our hearing.

neoadorable Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 the lack of subtitles is a major oversight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you got that right, it really annoys me when games don't even have subtitles or they are not right. Its not a hard thing to do. So unless subtitles are released for the game which I doubt will happen then this game just won't get me playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
