I caved into the words of Pike and Psy and bought it. It's downloading right now, but I'm so spoiled by modernity that the 2 1/2 hour wait for the download is killing me.
Edit: It downloaded and I just spent a couple hours playing it and I am a pirate and why is this game so great, all I am doing is dicking around Havana wooing the lovely Spanish ladies, killing soldiers, and repeatedly breaking into the Castillo because I can. This is a AC I > II situation all over again, and having gone through Altair, Ezio, Connor, and now Edward, I'm really starting to feel that the main character is a vitally important part of making a great AC. Ezio is basically Casanova with lots of daggers broing up with Leonardo da Vinci and Edward Kenway is a pirate who is possibly the greatest conman since Lyle Lanley.

I like the con because the name Duncan Walpole sounds like it should be innuendo or a double entendre.
I had no interest in this game and now I have a bucketload of interest in this game but no outlet in which to channel that interest.
Gott verdammt.![]()
Yeah now that I have a boat and the world has opened up this is actually the best game ever
In a world where Grand Theft Auto exists this might still be the manliest game of all time.
I mean, Edward Kenway just ripped off his shirt, jumped down into a flimsy rowboat, and killed a shark by chucking spears at it.
Just saw in Kingston what appeared to be a man surrounded by a crowd shouting "EVERYTHING MUST GO! IT'S ALL FOR SALE" and then he was waving one of the crowd's arm in the air and I realised all of the crowd were black and had manacles. What the smurf, Ubisoft xD I mean look, I know slavery existed and there's slave characters and plenty of references to slaving but I dunno man, having a random NPC spawn of this is a bit close to the knuckle, isn't it? Regardless, I shot the man in the head and ignored the warning about killing "innocents".
