This is a fairly fun game, although you definitely feel that it's rough around the edges, AC2 is a lot more polished. On the technical side this game is very rough - the controls are the console ones, just mapped to the keyboard and mouse (LMB is also called "Button 0"), you can't enable anti-aliasing on high resolutions, and it has frequent stutters, which you have to fix in a hex editor (look for gconnect.ubi.com, and replace the first letter with a null byte). EaglePatch fixes a bunch of issues on more modern systems, including the anti-aliasing thing and improved controller support, so I suggest it if you want to play on Windows 10 or later. As of this review, GOG hasn't really made any changes to the game either, so it still works on XP, despite what the system requirements say on here.
