It's not trash but I agree with your friend. It's a bit too repetetive to buy.
Also, if you do play it, I hope you are a fan of men saying "Altair, it seems my students do not fully understand what it is to wield a blade. Perhaps you could show them what you know". You'll understand when it happens.
Psychotic is a gert benderrrrr.
I like it. Worth what I paid for it. I can understand that it can get a bit repetitive, but I never really got bored *cough Final Fantasy power-levelling cough*.
It's well worth it for the story. Great story. Shame about the "hey! let's make the ending a bit 'wtf?' so we can make a sequel!" ending though. Still worth it. I'd just buy it, if I were you. It's cheap enough nowadays.
Psychotic is still a gert benderrrrrr.
It's alright. Some parts are stupid though, such as the infinite supply of soldiers that attack you whenever you complete an assassination, as well as the way that soldiers immediately chase you when you're on horseback going any faster than a crawl. That was just retarded.
Yeah I didn't like the "He doesn't look remotely shifty. Get him!" or the "Goodness, He accidentally knocked into someone, and made them drop a crate or vase. Kill him!" parts, but oh well.
I found the lack of guards after assassinations annoying when trying to get the 25 kills in one fight achievement. I'd kill all the guards and they'd just stop coming. :(
I got my 25-kill achievement at a military encampment arranged around a Sparta pit. Took a while, though, I ran into the same problem you had a couple times while I was at it.Quote:

Is pretty.
But yeah, repetitive. I was totally enraptured with the game through the first two cities. And then I noticed that all of the normal citizens have the same script and voice track in every city, at which point killing random people lost all it's novelty. As such, I lost interest in the game and never finished it.
Rent it, play the first two or three chapters. Then return it to the store, because you've played the whole thing.
It's also worth noting that your own creativity factors into how much you enjoy the game. If you just want to kill your targets as fast as you can, you can get close to them pretty easily and then fight them and their guards. But the real fun comes in being creative and using the environment to your advantage.
I had an absolute blast infiltrating a huge castle, avoiding dozens of guards and silently killing others. It was something like a 30 minute ordeal for me to reach the top of the castle, then descend down towards my target and get a silent kill on him. Very rewarding.
If only the citizens were more random, like in GTA... Their clothes are randomly assembled, they have a nice variety of voices and different lines to choose from...Quote:

Anyways, which castle did you storm, Azar? I want to see how I can last =)

I played it for five minutes and then shelved it. I think it rules out Mario is Missing as the most depressing thing I've ever played.
So your favourite thing about the game is something you havent played? :pQuote:
