needs some explanation imo. that or im not following the story that well
In a recent trailer ezio says "An assassin takes orders from no one!"
WTF!?
An assassins is not a frolicking army general!? they don't have army's
they work alone and every time they call Ezio an assassin in this game I
just facepalm
Ezio you are not an assassin, your just a plain killer with a hoodie.
Waiting for the REAL assassins game
/rant
No, that is your preconception of an assassin. By definition an assassin is just someone who murders an important person for religious, or political reason. EL GASP.
A murderer is someone who does a premeditated killing of another individual. So in that case, Altair was a murderer just as much as ezio.
Seriously man get with the program.

I just... Cmon, I just bought Dungeon Defenders, do I really need any more toweractiondefense games?
Ubisoft really just needs to stop milking it. Sales are falling, interest is waning... let it REST.
did you even played the game and understand the history???
you do know Altair was the first Assassin to break the tradition of just following orders without question. he also opposes cutting one of your fingers to insert the hidden blade to become an assassin.
amazing stuff :P
though i wish the series should have done like this.
2 main games per assassin. while the final game in the series will put all of the assassins in one game(like this one)
imagine AC1 and AC2 using Altair(discovering the new weapons, new moves, ability swim, rebuilding the brotherhood etc)
while AC3 and AC4 is about Ezio preserving that brotherhood and finding the hidden artifacts left by Altair. while meeting some of Altair's henchmen in their old years.
then AC5 could be a new assassin or this game itself.
oh well i just feel that we didn't get enough Altair action.
and yes i know the PSP game and other DS game featured him. but it was too limited from what i can tell though Bloodlines seems to be the only handheld game closer to the original series premise.
the Den Defense tower looks cool :)
still need to buy Brotherhood though :\
The name Assassins refers to a historical group of 11th to 13th century Shiah Muslims, who preformed politically and religiously motivated killings, and who are actually the namesake of the modern word "assassin". Altair in the first game was a member of this order, and in the fictional timeline, the name was simply kept by the group through Ezio's time and even into the present. I know it's not true to history... but then, neither is the portrayal of the Knight's Templar, so I think we'll leave historical realism at the door.

More proof: Altair's lifetime was during the Third Crusade, which was contemporary with the Assassins.
I'm really wishing Ubisoft would license this engine out to other devs so they can use it differently; I'd love to see a Forgotten Realms game set among the Sword Coast's major cities, and that allows you to play D&D classes. Rogues/Monks climb buildings, Mages levitate to the roofs, and Warriors/Barbarians can just smash the doors down to get to their objectives.
As for the tower defense, I'm glad they're continuing to add to what you can do in the game, and I like multi-wave defense.
