This one did not live up to my high expectations.
First of all the graphics.
Graphics : 9.5 / 10.0
The graphics were jaw dropping and since they were the first thing i saw my high hopes went even higher.
The graphics are probably the only thing that really stood out and are probably the only thing that makes this game get some tens (from the graphic loving gamers).
Story : 7.0 / 10.0
Well if you have completed the game you will probably know the reason for me rating the story section the way i did.
The story reveals a twist right in the beginning that kinda turns this game into another direction then i thought it would, the story manages to build up great suspense when nearing the end and then the end comes.... a big middle finger to anyone who spend their time in vein trying to figure out the ending.
If there is anything i hate it's games/movies which are so money greedy they don't end with a possible sequel they are already pre-planned as a prequel.
Since they could have left the player with some clarity in the end but decided not to, then i must believe that the minute they finished this one they started the next one.
Of course i could be wrong and this is the way they are truly going to end this, and if that is the case the story deserves nothing more than a 6.
Gameplay : 8.3 / 10.0
So the gameplay starts of amazingly well and you run around climbing these buildings and getting into fights with the templars and the guards and you in the beginning exploring all the possibilities is extremely fun.
But then you reach a certain point where you realize that this is all your going to be doing for the rest of the game, that point is a little sad.
With the Investigating, pickpocketing, intimidating and helping your brothers do their job for them you would think the staff had enough to work with to make a handful of original quests, but no, they all end up the same and by the second half of the game you have pretty much played them all.
Well all except the main assassinations which are pretty fun to do ill give them that.
Overall : 8.5 / 10.0
This game had true potential but with the blurry ending, the repetative gameplay and the easiest fights you could ever imagine this game does not come close to what i expected it to be.
This game is still a pretty good play but maybe it is best to wait for a price drop.
