Amazing engine and scenery

Let me start by saying that Assassin's Creed II is one of the best games I have ever played. It has absolutely amazing graphics, a beautiful world, lots to do, a FANTASTIC story, wonderful and deep characters, and the game was entertaining from start to finish. Now, how I feel about the original Assassin's Creed... This game has a fantastic engine, and the gameplay is extremely fun. Running around from rooftop to rooftop, assassinating random guards is fantastically fun. Unfortunately, when it comes down to doing missions, the game becomes extremely repetitive and boring. You might spend 30 minutes running around the city, performing different tasks to gain information on your target. You get everything set up, and all you need to do is sneak into the crowd, blend in, and make the kill. But then, a crazy old old beggar man in the crowd gets angry, and pushes you for no reason at all. No big deal, right? Only now, all the guards have drawn their weapons and are coming towards you. So what do you do? You kill them all, one by one, and then assassinate the target. And it wasn't even hard. This is how every single assassination goes. It becomes so impossible to stealth kill that it ends up being a massive battle against tons of guards, and you kill them all one by one with a few well timed strikes. There is a problem with a game when it is more fun to make up your own story line and run around and kill people than it is to do the assassinations you're supposed to. On top of that, it takes forever to quit, as you have to quit from the Middle Ages into modern times, then walk around and quit modern times, then quit the game file, and menu, and other menu... something like that. All in all, its a wonderful world to explore, but it seems like they put all the time into the engine and the mechanics. Considering they really hit the nail on the head with Assassin's Creed II, there really is no point playing this one.

It's just okay.

The first Assassin's Creed game hasn't aged quite as well as the Ezio trilogy but despite it's flaws I think there's enough here to enjoy IF you're a fan of the series. To sum up the positives the main story is solid and the nine assassination missions alone are worth experiencing if you're invested in the series. With that said there's quite a few reasons to be careful when deciding whether or not to pick this game up. For one a controller is basically required to fully enjoy this game, kb&m controls jsut don't feel unatural. Keep in mind that if you're using an Xbox 360/One controller the game doesn't register the triggers as buttons so controls that would be mapped there are now mapped to the bumpers and it can feel awkward. Another thing to keep in mind is that the core gameplay loop is very repetitive. Before you can start each assassination there's a variety of side missions you have to do around town to obtain information about your target and you're required to do at least three before you can proceed. The PC version adds a few new mission types into the mix but it still gets old after the third or fouth assassination. Lastly, while the story picks up towards the end of the game the gameplay takes a step back. Without spoiling anything I'll say that for the majority of the game you're encouraged to take a stealthy aproach and avoid combat when possible. This approach is the way that Assassin's Creed is meant to be playing and it can be really rewarding to complete missions and assassinations without ever being spotted. However the last hour or so of the game throws this away and sends you into a gauntlet of combat and it can be really difficult if you've never practiced it before hand. Overall I'd say definitely check this game out if you're a fan of the series and are willing to put up with it's cons but if you're brand new I'd say be cautious, you might be better off just watching a story summary and starting with Assassin's Creed 2.

A rough gem

Keep in mind that I haven't played any of the other games in the series (mostly due to them not being on GOG), so I'm not going to compare any of the other games to this one. The premise is that your an assassin from 1189–1192 during the Third Crusade, in which you are tasked to seek out info about targets on what they've done, and kill them. There is a bit more to the game than this, but this is what your mostly doing. So, here's what I like: 1. I like the setting. Seriously, how many games do you know of that take place in the Middle East in 1000 A.D. that aren't strategy games? We need more exploration in this timeline. 2. I like the movement. I'm not meaning about wall climbing or sword play, but I mean walking and talking, punching or grabbing, it all looks so natural. Though the horse could use a bit of work. 3. I like the cities. They look like places people would live in, not to forget that there are people there going about their day to day lives. 4: I like the exposition. Not really of the story or the writing, more of what everyone has to say, each one having their own ideologies that really give a feel for everyone there. 5: Sword-fights. Yeah I know he's not like a Rambo killing machine, but he's not trained to be one. He's an assassin, he's trained to hide in the crowd and escape, and I'm glad that's a main core part of the game. What I don't like: 1. They did the whole give-you-every-ability/weapon-from-the-start-then-take-it-from-you-in-the-start, I don't know why they do this. Why not just give weapons off as progression at the start? 2. I'll admit, Altiar (protagonist) is a bit annoying, but I tolerate it a bit for understanding that he's young and immature. You, however, may not. 3. Racing side-mission. Ok, dealing with guard picking on town fold, understandable. Moving to the top of a building to get a better view of your surroundings, makes sense. But what does racing have to do with anything in the middle east?

Still solid

Honestly, it's still a pretty solid game. While the graphics and gameplay don't compare to other AC titles, it's still fun and stands tall as a good game. My only problems are that stealth isn't quite as fleshed out as it could be (something that is remedied in other AC games), and there was this weird bug where I had to disconnect my computer from my wifi in order to stop stuttering. Other than that, it's worth a playthrough.

Good opener to a great series

I played these games on Playstation, and I can say the first one is the hardest to get through. The overall story is fantastic, but like everyone else says, the actions are too repetitive. There are only so many things you can do in this game, even with it's open world design, I remember the first time I played it I loved the story, but it took so long for the plot to move because of all the repetitive actions you had to do, so it was hard to get through. With that said, if you look at the whole series (ACII, ACIIB, ACIIR, and the upcoming ACIII) the overriding story is fantastic, and if you want to play those you just HAVE to see how it all began by playing this before going to any of the others, which greatly improved on the mechanics and story with each subsequent title. See how it all started by playing this game. It'll be hard to get through the first one, but the beauty and the graphics will hopefully keep you going until you finish this first one and move onto the next games.
