About Me
Besides pwning n00bs, in my spare time I like to chew bubble gum and think about the best way to cook hot pockets and ramen noodles in the same microwave, at the same time.

I got AC for the PC and just finished it. My views:

1. I loved the story. I ate the sci-fi and the medieval parts up. Not the best story ever and the way it turned was disappointing. By that I mean at the end where you start fighting copies of people it feels like they fired the writers at that point and kept on going off of ideas from other games. Still, Ubisoft does not disappoint when it comes to stories.

2. The fighting system was just like a fighting game. You can pull out your sword and mash buttons until you have killed every guard in the town. I have heard there are 3-button-combos that will kill everything but my way seems to work.

3. WATER This pissed me off a ton. You fall in some itsy bitsy lake and drown. The port at acre, even if you are 2 inches from a boat you drown. There are all kinds of crazy explanations for this, but it is just plain retarded.

4. Speaking of retards, I hate them. They seem to go out of their way to annoy no one else but me. They can be standing in a room full of 50 people and not touch any of them but me. The hidden blade comes in handy for these people, or just punching them. The same applies to drunks.

5. PC only missions. These helped me a lot. Archer Assassination was probably my favorite one.

6. Menu system! It never occurred to ubisoft that people actually need to use PC's for things other then gaming and they probably have to quit the program sometime. They added a quit button in the most inconvenient place.

Pause > Quit > Yes > Exit Animus > Pause > Quit > Yes > Sign in > Quit > Yes

Do you really need 10 menus to exit a game?


That pretty much wraps up my thoughts, I think I might post this again later so more people see it.

Dude.

You save, then ALT + F4.

Are you retarded or something? Just because there isn't a button saying "OMG STOP PLAYIN" doesn't mean you can't stop.

They're fine impressions, but I don't think we really need a repost. The game's six months old now and I suspect pretty much everyone who'll care already knows what you now know.

I liked this game too but the ending totally sucked

when the doctor and that girl just walk out of the room its just like, ok great? Then you go into the bedroom to watch the credits before crying in a corner over another good game with a terrible ending.

I hated this game. I got sick of repeating the same things every time I had to do a mission.
