I... feel like I just played this game.
Ugh. Here we go again. Yeah yeah, recap the last game. Ahuh, I'm desmond.... yeah yeah, Templars.
Here's the long and short of Assassins' Creed as a game
But now take that..... and give it a year to grow and mature, and become GORGEOUS. They didn't mess with the core elements of what the Assassin's Creed games are known for, they simply added to it.
What have they added?
Larger maps
More backstory
More weapons
Different types of attacks/kills
Different types of enemies (never seen before)
Collectibles
3 Side-quest storylines
Tons of money to be made
More buildings/ cities to renovate
oh, and Multiplay.
Supe up the graphics, add multiplay, and about 5000 different customizable elements/ places, and you have Brotherhood.
Oh, probably the biggest part for all you non-online people. You hire other assassins and can send them out to do your dirtywork. Or have an organized strike on a building.
Here's the coolest part of the whole game. An entire building covered by your own assassins. You're standing on a corner of the building. Each assassin is assigned a guard on the roof to target. You drop your hand and the strike commences. It's a nice and interesting element that works. It doesn't require RTS-esque planning, just a few commands and you're on your way. I love seeing games try new things to modify what we already enjoy, and Brotherhood does it up nicely.
Rent or own? I'd honestly say own. It's the most complete Assassin's Creed so far, tons and tons of reasons to replay, and a good 50+ hours to do everything.
Go get your assassinate on.
