Razorwing Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Guard " Hey you get down from there " Me (Ezio) " NO I will climb up to where you are and defeat you without any weapons" Ezio climbs up to the guard . He changes to fists. Guard is alerted Guard: AssAssin! he is here! Guard takes out sword and attempts to swipe Ezio. Ezio counters and takes the Guard's sword and kills him with it. Ezio drops the sword as he watches the Guard's corpse slide down onto the street. Ezio " it was self defense, I swear. " lol.

Remysaus Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Who got all of "the truth" yet? I saw it, its pretty weird... Yeah, It was pretty interesting, seems to me like subject 16 was a descendant to Adam or Eve and this was recorded from the animus, though they weren't the first humans on earth in this 'truth' and it all looked very hightech back then :p anyway, unraveling it was a lot more fun than the actual video imo.

Sethos Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 So I just bought the full metal armour set ...

Sethos Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Aye, they do but I just see them as training dummies to perform spectacular kills on :laugh: The brutes however, man they annoy me to no end - Can't counter-kill them, can't do anything except dodge hit dodge hit ... A brute did however knock the sword out of my hand yesterday, so I did a disarm on him, Ezio took that massive battle-axe and bashed his head in with the first swing and did a massive kill-blow in the second, a spectacular sight :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/843506-official-assassins-creed-2/page/11/#findComment-591897720 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted November 26, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted November 26, 2009 Sethos you should really give Batman a go if you like AC. I know you slated the hell out of it after the demo, but to me it gives a very similar vibe to AC in the sense that you start playing it and get hooked. Lots of side quests/things to pickup and what not whilst doing the main quest. Of course if it's the free running you're dry humping that's not really in Batman, but there obviously is still scale/climbing.

Sethos Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 It is the free running that is the glue of this game, it brings the game together very nicely - Couldn't imagine being hooked for very long without it. Plus, the mere though of playing as "Batman" is just a joke in my mind, I'm not a big fan of super heroes and all this crap. Being an Assassin is just a bad-ass feeling :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/843506-official-assassins-creed-2/page/11/#findComment-591897746 Share on other sites More sharing options...

danisflying527 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Well playing the first one ties in with the story at some parts so its a good idea before playing the second just bought it today lol I'm lovin it!! can't believe how fun it is compared to the first Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/843506-official-assassins-creed-2/page/11/#findComment-591907628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Proof Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Btw, has anyone seen the Assassins creed lineage movie ? is it any good ? does it have any spoilers or is it completely different from what we experience in the game ?

Remysaus Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 the movie is about Ezio's father and it shows what happens before the events in AC2, so no spoilers. just a prequel.
