Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood


Recommended Posts

don't know guys, i just don't like this, no matter how hard i try i can't warm to it, there's just something not there. i mean there's been some cool moments for sure, like the one with the Borgia ships and the cannon, but still, it just doesn't feel right after the sheer joy and excitement of AC2. maybe i'm just being prejudiced, i don't know. i think a lot of it has to do with the fact they crammed so much into it - which of course i should appreciate rather than criticize...it just doesn't flow as well as AC2.

Can you play this game without playing ACII? I've only played Assassin's Creed and didn't like the representativeness of it. But would like to give this game a try. :unsure:

Ac1 was fantastic and is on my list of favorite games I have ever played. I'm just about done AC2 now and in general it has taken what is great about the first and made it even better. There's times the movement doesn't flow quite as smoothly, but I know this will also make my list of favorites.

you can play AC:B with no prior knowledge of the other entries in the series, but it won't be as interesting because there's significant lore behind it. like you won't know Desmond used to be a bartender...i kid, it's much deeper than that. i'd recommend playing them in sequence, it's not like there's an expiration date on games. plus AC2 is by far superior to both AC1 and AC:B, don't miss it.

So, last night, fired this back up to do some trophy cleanup (feathers, flags, Romulus shrines). Played the first Romulus shrine, good times. Finish, no trophy pop. Oh crap. I remembered there had been an issue with a trophy glitch. Jumped onto the Ubi forums, and saw that the update that I had downloaded last night (1.04) was supposed to fix that.

/facepalm.

    • That's (at least partially) on 7-zip; Nanazip (7-zip fork) adds itself properly to Context menus.
    • We have disabled advertising in the forums for now for an undetermined period. If you feel like you get a lot of value out of the site please do whitelist ads on the news articles, and/or consider getting a subscription, we offer two tiers, one at: $14 per year (support the site for just over a dollar a month) or the $28/year tier (just over $2/month) that disables advertising and affiliate link tracking throughout the site (so also on the news side). We also have a 'Buy us a coffee' page if you just want to make a one-time donation. I am not mincing words when I say it is becoming harder and harder to monetize publications like Neowin, it's a fact of life that when we can no longer afford to pay for everything we'll go like many other sites already have. It doesn't have to cost you anything There are other ways to support Neowin too, like posting on topic content in the forums (technical support/questions/helping others) and sharing our news articles.. this costs nothing but your time and is just as important as subscribing or making a monetary donation! Anyway thanks for your time and continued support of Neowin. Now in our 26th year, and hopefully many more! For all the lurkers out there that whitelist us, make a free member account, and see fewer (only inline) ads on the news side
