    I paid for this game through Steam. When I tried to start it the first time, Steam downloaded UPlay, which demanded me to provide my email to Ubisoft before it let me launch the game I paid for.

    So I torrented a crack for a game that I paid for, because I don't pay to get in Ubisoft's spamlist. Just putting that out there. Thank you, guys that row on skids.

    In any case, AC2 Brotherhood is quite literally AC2: the Cut part.

    The game starts less than 3 mins after the ending of AC2. The plot barely changes an inch, and everything is the same.

    Brotherhood could just be an uninventive extension to a game that was really good but sadly outstayed its welcome. However, it's actually a worse game than AC2 in my taste, simply because AC is not about the gameplay, or the plot: it's about the interactive postcard, about being part of History and enjoying the feeling of traversing a proper medieval city or great time of the past.

    And the thing is, AC2 relied on Venice and Florence. Brotherhood is about Rome.

    Rome is, as Tywin Lannister would put it, a blasted ruin. The city is plainly UGLY. Kudos for the effort of making a really credible half destroyed wreck of a city, but bluntly put, I didn't like anything about Rome. The whole game is in Rome.

    The gameplay? Same problems, the crossbow makes things even easier, the run/jump controls still are unpleasant. The fights are the same. Some infuriating moments when some guards in heavy armor somehow manage to catch up to me and beat me when I'm forced to run away.

    The Apple of Eden segments are all terrible.

    On a good note though, I really loved the mechanic of the Towers and the captain you have to kill. Infiltration, planning, failing, running, killing guards, it was all very fun. Slightly abhorrent when sometimes the captain you must target can run into an untouchable place in 8s, but overall very fun.

    Still, if you play Brotherhood, it's more AC2, with a far uglier city, a plot that is less personal and involving as in AC2, less developed, with more money and property minigames, more of the same ideas, more of the same gameplay, more of the same.    … Expand

    -Some (though not many at all) levels seem to be designed to just be unfairly difficult, just because of "Artistic" e.g. bad camera angles which drove me crazy at times.
    -Multiplayer is dead, but.. Oh well, it's been 8 years.

    Brotherhood is a terrific game. No arguing there.
    Only reason, for me at least, that it gets 9 and not 10 is the somewhat lack of originality.
    What I mean by that is the Brotherhood looks pretty much like AC2 Revamped - in both good and bad ways - It takes everything that AC2 did well, keeps it, and makes better the tiny rough edges that were there. Graphics feel slightly upgraded, combat is more fluid (though simple), and there are plenty of stuff to do and engage yourself in besides the main story.
    Still, it really all feels like been there-done that, in almost every aspect. The story is essentially the same as in AC2, in my opinion, and for me it was the weakest point of the game. While the "Big" story is to my likings (the whole Abstergo stuff and intertwining the the past etc), the execution is extremely mundane, as you can easily lose grip on what's actually happening between one killing and the other, and the whole bit that actually matters only comes in the very end of the game...
    Speaking of story, while it is cool that Desmond can parkour too now, the out-of-the-animus moments became redundant and more like a chore, as you go running around doing the same thing over and over for quite some time each time there was such sequence and or optionally getting out of the animus deliberately to "read emails" which turned out to be mostly boring and not too exciting or informative. (I still believe that the FIRST AC did very well the out-of-the-animus phases and that the entire series probably ditched completely the concept of making those phases actually relevant, storywise, besides the very ending or beginning of each game).
    The ending, by the way, was very much to my liking as well although it was somehow banned by many from the little I've seen, but I really think it what keeps me still motivated to go on to Revelations and find out what's next.

    That's a lot of digging around the probably most least cared for point in the game, but really, I think that matters and this only shows that story is slowly ditched in order to make a mainstream game.
    Brotherhood, like its predecessor, becomes quite repetitive towards the end and just makes you want to get it over with.
    What was done way better than AC2, is that there's much more diversity this time. There are many different kinds of missions or memories, and they're usually quite versatile - for example, the "tomb-raider" like levels from AC2 which felt pretty much all the same now feel a bit more unique and stand for themselves, each level has a somewhat different way of playing, etc.. So better job with diversifying gameplay.

    In short - this could've been a great AC 2 remagination.    … Expand

    I played this game late, after having read all the positive reaction. This confuses me, since I found it to be worse than all of its predecessors. The introduction of assisting assassin recruits is a very positive change, but, in every other aspect, AC:B is slipping away.

    Fighting, more than ever, is now all about button mashing. The original title had some interesting combo dynamics, which I didn't even get to check whether they were still there. There was no place for them. Luckily, you can call for help and end the battles quicker.

    The controls in AC games have always had a bad rep. For some reason, in AC:B their suckiness is more in your face than ever before. Probably because AC:B is so poor in things to help you feel better about it. Few things can bring you faster to rage than Ezio spontaneously changing direction and jumping sideways towards a wall, causing you to fail your time-sensitive goal.

    The writing is the thinnest it has every been. Master-blahblah is building up, kill his characterless helpers, then kill him. Seriously, was there a single character in this game, besides Ezio himself? And don't get me started about how they've jumped the shark with the alien AI whatever-it-is thing.

    And the title's trademark, freerunning, became less free and more of a mechanic to solve puzzles, Tomb Raider style. Running on rooftops makes no practical sense anymore. Speaking of which, I always liked the environment's realistic and lived feel. Well, not anymore. Unless someone can explain why medieval architects would place uniform door switches high on walls and odd beams to help people with superhuman climbing skills get there.

    Tying the whole degression together is the city of Rome, the worst depiction of a city in any AC game. Rome is repetitive, hard to navigate (especially from the rooftops) and visually depressing.

    AC has a lot to capital to burn before becoming a bad game. But it didn't make to good this time either.    … Expand

Well in my opinion they are all broken and disconnected in this game. Fighting is stupid. Where in a decent game you have to carefully think what attack type to apply to every enemy and in what order, here it is enough that you stand in block and counter-kill any opponent and kick in balls every 5-th opponent. That is all. Of course you can diversify it if you want. Use bullets, arrows, smoke etc. But there's no need. There is always maximum of 2 enemies attacking you simultaneously. You can easily kill a crown of hundreds soldiers given the time of 10 minutes. Which leads to a sad conclusion that you do not actually need new equipment, I didn't even buy a crossbow for 8th chapter(and I bought it because I wanted to see how it works). You can complete the whole game without new armor, gloves, daggers, swords. And you won't feel any difficulty without them. So you do not need to invest money into stables, tailors, workshops, because you don't need equipment, you do not need invest in anything, because you do not need money. Assassins' help is also a tool of differentiating of a game process if you wish. A huge part of a game can be easily cut out without anyone noticing. In the Witcher 2 when I play on high difficulty, I use sharpening stones, craft new equipment, collect herbs, make potions, bombs, oils to survive. I use boosts, magic anything to survive. I feel acomplishment when I get through the area filled with enemies, boss battle etc. Here I never feel difficult. During the game I never died for Christ Sake! The acrobatics alwasy rotate me during the jump. Often you hang down from the balcony even when you clearly push jumping combination. In a whole lot of missions you need precision to meet 100-sync requirements. But the game does not grant it to you. Most of side missions are dull. Yes, I can differentiate them, but I want to be engaged, I don't want to track and kill a person in every mission. I want to see the story. What kind of a story can be told in few phrases? When it comes down to the main plot it is also a garbage bin. You are never told of the functioning mechanism of eagle vision. You still do not know anything about the main powers taking part in the story, but you are induced to follow their actions and foggy explanations. It all looks like a bad amateurish science fiction. You know what, I'd prefer straight and simple "Dishonored" story to this one. It is the same thing as "LOST" movie series. You try to prolong the story and don't explain anything up until the end simply because you don't know how to explain what you have already implemented in the story. You have nothing to say. I never understood what was the point of creating big games combining gameplay from multiple genres, if any part of it is made worse than in the game you took it from. It is like Renaissance Call of Duty: don't ask, just play! Well I do not agree to that.… Expand

    Impressive game. Great combat, story, graphics and overall gameplay. Almost unplayable with mouse and keyboard, the controls just feel weird if you use them. Better to enjoy it with a console controller. Other than that, it is worth every dollar you pay for it.

    I love AC and Brotherhood is my favorite in the series so far.The voice acting,story,character personalities and Rome itself are amazing.The game runs well even on my PC( its not the best for gaming D: ). Anybody who enjoys AC needs to play this one. What better than an epic history based action-adventure game? :D

    Brotherhood is worth playing. Missions have optional criteria to meet for increased difficulty. You are now vulnerable to be attacked during execution animation, and able to use heavy weapon are good points.

    This installment of the Assassin's Creed series is a fun game but trips fatally over a few key issues.

If you're willing to overlook some plot issues and can turn a blind eye to the game mis-interpreting what you want to do on a regular basis, this game is right up your alley. However, these trips have landed this game a low score.

    The city is well designed and getting around is fun. Jumping from rooftops to rooftops and climbing around has always been a fun feature of the Assassin's Creed series. This game doesn't drop the ball in this departement. However, occasionally, you will find yourself frustrated that you can't reach something or grab something that you really should. Or in an attempt to jump up to a ledge that you can't grab on to, you'll frequently find yourself plummeting straight for the hard floor below. That being said, it doesn't happen often enough to really make this a huge issue.

    The combat is fun, however I found myself only ever using a couple of your huge arsenal of weapons. Once you get the crossbow, the game looses a lot of its challenge as well. The city development part of the game is neat and a good way to encourage the player to explore the city and liberate it.

    Managing your recruits was a key addition to Brotherhood and while innovative and neat, it did make the game a little easy. It seems like if you want a challenge in this game, you have to shoot yourself in the foot right out of the door to give the enemies that advantage they need. The game was fun. I enjoyed almost ever hour i spent running around the ancient city. However, i didn't enjoy one second running around in the present. While the concept of genetic memory is interesting, the game makes almost no effort to make you care at all about the real actual characters. Then when the huge thing happens at the end (which should have blown everyone's mind), i found myself wondering why I should care. Plus, this 'event' didn't make me feel like anything had been resolved. The ending had a nice build up, the pacing was near flawless then it just ends. Brotherhood left me with no satisfaction what so ever after finishing the game. This is the primary reason i give the game as low a rating as i did. The ending of any game is a crucial component. It is the last impression, the thing that determines whether you want to play it again or whether you want to throw it in the garbage and light it on fire for leading you along such a wonderful journey then abandoning you with no closure. Overall, fun game, bad ending. A great game if you're not the kind of person who gets hung up story stuff (like i clearly am).    … Expand

    It's a great game by itself, although improvements over AC2 are relatively small. Combat is a lot smoother but also easier at the same time thanks to the ability to chain kills. Training your little army of assassins is pretty fun too. The main story is relatively short but there is plenty of extra side content to keep busy those who want to see it all.

    These "glitches & bugs" aren't really small ones, but are actually ones prevents your progression in a few missions/sequences. If you play over 60hz and have vsync off, you are going to run into them. Unfortunately for this, and the frustration caused for me, deserves an even lower score than AC or AC2.

    Other than that, i need not mention the pros and cons as they were similarly mentioned in my AC2 review.

    Note: Assassin's Creed Brotherhood also features the free Da Vinci Disappearance (DLC), obtainable via UPlay for 0 credits. It's a well worth and fun DLC with a few extra hours to put into the game. As it is going to take place after the main story, i recommend playing this DLC only after you've completed it.

    Now take nothing away from it, the gameplay is marvelous. Fighting has never gotten easier than in this game. The story is decent and in this one I did want to kill Cezare Borgia (mainly for the same reason why Star Wars fan boys want to kill Jar Jar Binks). However like all Assassin's Creed games the ending really sinks what could have been a great game.

    It's only been a year since Assassin's Creed 2, so you would be forgiven if you thought Assassin's Creed Brotherhood would feel more like a stopgap than a full follow-up. This game continues where Assassin's Creed 2 left off, with the same main protagonist, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, in the 15-16th Century. The game is not as good as the prequel but it comes very close. Assassin's CreedIt's only been a year since Assassin's Creed 2, so you would be forgiven if you thought Assassin's Creed Brotherhood would feel more like a stopgap than a full follow-up. This game continues where Assassin's Creed 2 left off, with the same main protagonist, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, in the 15-16th Century. The game is not as good as the prequel but it comes very close. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood has plenty of things for you to do, the graphics improved, and there are new mechanics that will surprise you. Many of the mechanics are forced but somehow fit in throughout the game. The events in Brotherhood have many meaningful memories since the prequel. If you played Assassin's Creed 2, you would know Ezio Auditore da Firenze, the young ladies man, turned deadly assassin. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood starts exactly where the previous game left off. Ezio's nemesis, Cesare Borgia obtained the powerful Apple of Eden. Lucrezia Borgia is the only new character and she is an important one. She is charismatic and a beautiful women and has a very odd relationship with her brother Cesare. The highlight of Ezio's tales are in the small touches and side missions. A series of flashbacks are sentimental and are a good reminder of Ezio's younger days. Claudia Auditore also takes on a leading position in this game. Overall it's good to see some female characters with presence. The main plot falls flat, since it does not reveal much we did not already know. On the other hand, there is the parallel story of Desmond Miles, a bartender whose ancestor’s memories you are visiting. The player gets to spend plenty of time with Desmond. If you thought Assassin's Creed 2's ending was a shocker just wait until this one. You spend most of your times as Ezio and you might miss having multiple cities to explore, but do not worry that Rome will feel confined. Rome is a huge place, it's gorgeous and there is a ton of stuff for you to do. A standard gameplay should easily take as much time as Assassin's Creed 2 did. The basics remain the same. You run across the city on rooftops, get some swordplay with some guards, you climb towers so you can get bearing on your surroundings and then leap off of them. You blend with citizens to tail your target and all of these things are as fun as ever. Almost everything received some kind of enhancement. On the combat side, you can kick your foes so you can catch them off guard before you sink your sword into them. It's a useful feature as well since enemies don't always wait around to attack you now. It isn't as much more challenging though, since you can now put together one stab kills which sheds plenty of blood. Some of those towers you climb must be set on fire. In order to do that, you need to assassinate an officer in advance. Prowling is easier now since you can find a horse almost anywhere. The economy means even more now too, since you must purchase buildings like tailors and blacksmith shops before you gain access to vendors. You even buy famous landmarks. There are a lot of improvements and changes for the better of the series. The biggest improvement is now you can recruit Assassin's. Remember the citizens being harassed in Assassin's Creed 1? They are back but now when you save them, they will join your cause. From there you send them off to missions on a menu interface. They level up, and eventually they become full-fledged assassins. You can call them in battle and then jump out of nearby haystacks or riding on a horse and do some of your dirty work for you. In the end though, this addition feels more than a bit contrived. The game leads you to believe that recruiting these assassins has some kind of overall purpose, but the whole thing feels pointless. The combat is so easy enough that you might even forget you can call on your brothers, and once you reach the end of the game, you discover that all that time you spent on training and recruiting doesn't really culminate really anything important. Luckily there are plenty of other features that help pick up the slack. Leonardo da Vinci is back, and some quests related to his role are beyond what you may have expected. Tombs have been replaced by lairs owned the Followers of Romulus. They provide some plat forming sequences. Not all missions are awesome. Ones that require stealth can sometimes fall flat. Overall there is a ton of variety and enough gameplay surprises to keep you guessing, so the cons of the game are just blimps on the radar. Finally Assassin's Creed Brotherhood added a multiplayer and it is quite interesting. You're assigned to a target to assassinate while someone else wants to attempt to assassinate you. You are surrounded by A.I.'s going about their own business. You need to blend with the crowd preferably people who look exactly just like you so you can prep up your pursuer. At the same time, you need to follow your radar to get the general vicinity and keep your eyes open to suspicious activity. It's not action-packed but it can get really tense. You might jump onto your target and kill him or her only to have your own pursuer plunge a dagger in your throat or you might get chased along rooftops only to lose your assassination contract because your target escapes. More silent kill’s means more points so just because you got the best kill ratio doesn't mean you are going to win. As you play, you earn handsome skills like being able to temporarily disguise yourself or using eagle vision to find your victim. It's wonderful improvement for Assassin's Creed Brotherhood for players who want something a little different. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood is gorgeous to look at. It oozes details everywhere, from the interior of palaces, to the famous coliseum. I did run into several occasions in which you fell through the geometry and were swimming in water many stories below the city. These and a few other features make Assassin's Creed Brotherhood seem a tiny bit sloppier than the first two games but overall it's still a visual stunner. It's not that better than Assassin's Creed 2 was. However it is shocking just how big Assassin's Creed Brotherhood is and somehow all manages to add vital and polishing new mechanics and a lot of great missions. A new multiplayer mode and you have a game that does anything but rest on its morals. Not every new addition it does is a step into the right direction but Assassin's Creed Brotherhood doesn't coast. Instead it's yet another reason to take that leap of faith. Remember, "Nothing is true... Everything is permitted". "La shai wak'ion motlaq bal kollon momken". I would give this game a rating of 96 out of 100.… Expand

The twin stories of Ezio and Desmond are some of the most effective in the Ezio trilogy. Marred by some poor keyboard platforming controls and bad implementation of v-sync, but there is full controller support. If you’ve enjoyed other Assassin’s Creed games, this is a must-own.
    Uplay is required.
    Total size on my hard drive: 11GB

    Note: If you are new to Assassin’s Creed games and wondering where to start, I’d recommend Assassin’s Creed II, not Brotherhood.

    Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood picks up right where Assassin’s Creed II left off: Ezio is in Rome, having just fought the previous game’s final boss, and Desmond et. al. are on the run after having their hideout crashed by Abstergo. Having completed the battle in Rome, Ezio returns to Monteriggioni to have sexy times with Catarina Sforza, only to have the idyll interrupted by Cesare Borgia laying siege to the fortress. After it falls, Ezio and his family flee to Rome, determined to destroy the Borgia’s near-complete control of the city’s districts, and rebuild the Assassins (and Rome) in the process. Several popular characters return; Catarina as previously mentioned, Leonardo, Claudia and Maria Auditore, and Machiavelli. Rodrigo Borgia has a few brief scenes as well, but the primary antagonist is Rodrigo’s son, Cesare.

    Now, instead of only upgrading your headquarters, Ezio is buying and refurbishing shops (and landmarks) all over Rome. Completing all the “Sons of Romulus” lairs unlocks a special dagger and armor. Completing memories with full synchronization unlocks hidden (“repressed”) Ezio memories of Cristina Vespucci’s fate. Leonardo is a minor character in the main game, but gets an entire DLC to himself (which is included). The Copernicus DLC is also included in the game files, but isn’t accessible to PC players without a mod (search the Steam forums). Add in the huge amount of loot found throughout the game which is used to unlock unique items at shops, the Animus “training mode” which is an arcade for honing your combat skills, and there is a wealth of content in Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood.

    The combat is the largest improvement to Brotherhood over the previous games. The addition of the chain-kill mechanic allows for the rapid dispatch of hordes of enemies. Combat in general flows quicker and smoother in the hands of a skilled player. A strange step backward, though, is the inability to use secondary weapons (like the pistol or crossbow) without selecting them in the weapon wheel first. Also, if you have a secondary weapon selected, doing a hand-focused act – like tearing down wanted posters – switches the weapon selection to unarmed. And the platforming was clearly designed for a controller. It’s doable with a keyboard and mouse, but not always intuitive. Expect Ezio to occasionally leap to his death without explanation.

    The graphics are among the best of the earlier Assassin’s Creed games (Revelations’ are better, but are also much more demanding). Maxing Brotherhood’s graphics settings and hitting 120fps at 1080p proved an easy task (I have an R7 260X graphics card). Texture quality, detail, light, and reflections are the biggest advances over Assassin’s Creed II. Brotherhood is marred, however, by the poor implementation of vertical-sync: turning it on results in horrific frame-rate micro-stutter. There doesn’t seem to be a fix, other than not turning v-sync on. Setting v-sync on in the Radeon Crimson settings didn’t help, either.

    These are small drawbacks, though. With swift and deadly combat, tons of things to do, and great stories, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood is a fantastic second part of the “Ezio trilogy” of games. A superb sequel and a great game in its own right. It discounts quite low, too, so if you’re a fan of Ezio or Assassin’s Creed in general, there is no reason not to get it.    … Expand

    Если кратко, игра мне не понравилась, почти совсем. Ниже будут бессистемные заметки почему именно.

    Главная претензия к активной части игры всё та же - ну слишком легко ошибиться и устроить вместо "текущего как вода паркура и стремительной и жестокой боёвки" какой то цирк дебилов. Я очень люблю в играх погружение и мне всегда кажется, что ассасины задумывались как очень иммерсивная игра,    Если кратко, игра мне не понравилась, почти совсем. Ниже будут бессистемные заметки почему именно.

    Главная претензия к активной части игры всё та же - ну слишком легко ошибиться и устроить вместо "текущего как вода паркура и стремительной и жестокой боёвки" какой то цирк дебилов. Я очень люблю в играх погружение и мне всегда кажется, что ассасины задумывались как очень иммерсивная игра, это так и есть, но только пока не начинается экшен. Готов всё списать на свои кривые руки, но имею то что имею - почти постоянно мой экшен скатывался в "full retard mode". А в этом режиме игра уже мало что интересного представляет.

    Главный виновник в вышесказанном это управление - играл на клаве (скорее всего это было ошибкой) и большую часть игры боролся не сколько с врагами, сколько с деревянным управлением.

    Несколько душераздирающих примеров:

    Эцио - липкий как жевачка, в процессе бега главная проблема для меня была избежать спонтанного прилипания и залезания на разнообразные объекты, встречающиеся на пути. Часто мне это не удавалось и возникали просто потрясающие по дебилизму ситуации, когда вместо погони Эцио забирался на пару ящиков стоящих по центу площади (мимо которых я хотел вообще то просто пробежать но видимо радиус оббега был слишком мал) и оттуда взирал отвесно вниз на 9000 стражников, которые его наконец догнали и радостно стали окружать. :D Кучи с сеном также требуют особого подхода если мы не хотим устроить цирковое представление с нырянием в них прямо перед носом догоняющего нас десятка солдат :)

    Как то раз Эцио вылез из люка, закрыл его, и почему то встал на край крышки люка и стал отвесно смотреть вниз, на закрытый люк. :D

    Погони преследования и поимки были моим самым "любимым" развлечением, вроде делаешь всё по подсказкам, жмешь лкм+шифт для того чтобы повалить на землю преследуемого, но работало это у меня через задницу и чаще всего Эцио или ничего не делал с целью или врезался в посторонних прохожих, или стаскивал проезжающего мимо всадника :blink: (там используется тот же шифт).

    В боёвке мне так и не удалось понять как быстро подбегать к цели будучи уже с оружием в руках, часто бывали ситуации когда подсвеченная цель находится в трех метров, но Эцио к ней приближается как черепаха. В паре ситуаций Эцио просто отказывался атаковать стоящего в полуметре врага и в ответ на мой яростный ПКМ просто втягивал и вытягивал хидден блэйд, как будто выпендриваясь перед обалдевшим от такого представления стражником.

    Попытки захвата в бою часто приводили не к захвату, а к подниманию оружия с земли или .... к подъему тела убитого стражника :blink: или... к стаскиванию проезжающего мимо всадника :D За всё это отвечает всё тот же шифт.

    Когда же враги захватывают Эцио игра подсказывает, что надо мол жать лкм+шифт для освобождения, однако не пишет, что на самом деле надо сначала нажать лкм и удерживая его жать шифт, и что очень важен тайминг. У меня были ситуации, когда из захвата вообще не удавалось освободится. И в одном из таких случаев, меня так удачно схватил стражник, что я оказался лицом к стенке и его товарищи не могли меня атаковать. Это был натуральный софтлок, отпускать меня он не собирался, мне освободиться не получалось. После пары минут наблюдения этой сцены, немного округленными от удивления глазами, пришлось выходить в меню.

    О всадниках - я не знаю почему, но при появлении на поле боя конного воина игра решает, что это настолько эпическое событие, что просто необходимо сделать автоматический лок на нем. Т.е. камера начинает просто сходить с ума.

    О фиксировании цели - реализован этот механизм на редкость странно, казалось бы что такое лок он? Это значит, что по нажатию кнопочки подсвеченная цель фиксируется и несмотря на положением камеры именно эта цель остается подсвеченной, так?... А вот фиг! Игра считает иначе, и залоченная цель вовсе не остается таковой и может также меняться в зависимости от того куда ты смотришь. Охрененно неудобно, особенно в стелсовых миссиях. В чем смысл такого лока я так и не понял.

There is a lot of running around, repetition, and predictability, but the story and large map is good enough to keep you engaged and interested, and doesn't feel particularly boring to play through. Fast travel and horse travel significantly helps reduce the amount of time you have to spend moving around.

    The game as a whole feels somewhat easy and you can ignore a lot of the optional mechanics in the game like buying upgrades, investing, assassin contracts, and so on since they don't particularly affect the main story. Unfortunately, the requirements to fully synchronize certain missions is incredibly unbalanced, meaning that certain missions will be too long or too tedious to fully synchronize and are just not worth the trouble to bother with.

    Overall, I'm giving the game an 8/10 mainly because of the story and how the game isn't a chore to play. In some instances I do quit to stop for the night because I get bored of errand running, but you're not supposed to speed run this game anyway. The game might realistically sport a 7/10, but keeping in mind that it was released in 2011, since games were more primitive back then, I loosened up my expectations a bit.

    I think my only real disappointment with the game is probably with The Truth. It was amazing in AC2 because you could actually watch an interesting cutscene, but that wasn't in this game. There was no point whatsoever with the ending. It was a genuine waste of my time and was completely underwhelming.    … Expand

    Пару лет назад появилось желание пройти заново все части Assassin's Creed. Настало время для Brotherhood, в который я раннее не играла. AC2 является для меня одной из самых памятных и любимых частей серии, и было приятно обнаружить, что ACB является геймплейно улучшенной ее версией.

Настало время для Brotherhood, в который я раннее не играла. AC2 является для меня одной из самых памятных и любимых частей серии, и было приятно обнаружить, что ACB является геймплейно улучшенной ее версией.

    Что понравилось из нового:
    + Набор в гильдию рекрутов. Очень удобно, когда на тебя устроили облаву, за тобой бежит пол Рима, ты вызываешь братков и они быстро помогают тебе в битве. Также они не раз помогали в стелс-миссиях или в миссиях, где нужно было убивать на скорость. Такого нововведения действительно не хватало. Не скажу, что это делает игру легче, скорее становится меньше рутины. Где-то на форуме читала, что новобранцев тяжело прокачать до ассасинов, с чем не могу согласиться, все мои ребята быстро достигли 10 лвла, особенно те, кто ходили на сложные задания с прокаченными. К концу ты даже привязываешься к ним и помнишь каждого по имени.
    + Расширился ассортимент оружия. Арбалет - лучшая вещь на земле.
    + Быстрые переходы и езда на конях по городу.

    Минусы заключаются в сюжете и подаче.
    - Действия, не считая пролога с эпилогом, не выходят за пределы Рима и, по сути, всю игру мы бегаем только за Чезаре (а во время финальной битвы, где чтобы победить, нужно было раздевать его, пробило на смех, серьезно). Дезмонд, как всегда, унылая скотина, и не было вообще никакого желания выходить из анимуса и слушать по одной-две несмешные шутки от его товарищей. В игре не было ни одного интересного персонажа, ни врага, ни союзника.
    - Сейчас будет немного вкусовщины, но лично меня никак не вставило бегать на перегонки с бомжами и ломать поделки Леонардо. Пулемет был еще ничего, но вот после бомбардировщика я сказала этим миссиям "до свидания", нервы и время дороже. Спасибо хотя бы то, что это побочные квесты и можно их с чистой совестью пропустить.
    - Также я не вижу особого смысла в покупке всяких лавок, достопримечательностей, выполнении заданий торговцев, т.к. денег на оружие и костюмы хватает с миссий и рекрутов, а получать деньги за то, что ты их тратишь, кажется здесь бессмысленным.
    - Если так подумать, то пропуская все побочки, не собирая сокровища, забивая на костюм Ромула, забыв про архивы, то игра проходиться катастрофически быстро. Наверное, за парочку часов. Сложно понять, а когда конец игры, ведь каждая миссия проходит в одном городе. В AC2 локации менялись, из-за чего ты хотя бы понимал, что скоро покинешь то или иное место. А здесь лично я не ожидала, что миссия во дворце будет конечной и не успела пробежать все в городе, что хотела.

    Вердикт такой: играть приятно и удобно, игра проходится относительно быстро есть не выполнять все на 100%, сюжета нет. Лучше ли эта часть игры AC2? Наверное, нет. Это, я бы сказала, не отельная часть, а аддон.    … Expand

    Ezio's character. his charm, his smack talk immediately drew me into the game. The amazing Roma Atmosphere and architecture was so breathtaking when i climbed my very first viewpoint sync that I cannot help but be a little biased in my review.
    I became crazy repairing the architecture around the entire map, it made me set aside hours dedicated to just stealing money from the local populace and guards so that i could rebuild the city for them, It had an amazing Robin Hood feel.
    As for the technical. The free run/climbing mechanic which is now a staple may have put others who played previous games off, but for me it was such a novelty I immediately fell in love with everything this game had to offer.
    The story was satisfyingly well executed, Though abruptly starting a continued story line from ACBrotherhood was a bit jarring for me personally when the climax rolled around, but never the less made me more than interested to know what the Lore was behind The Apple, Ezio/Desomnd, Templar's/Assassin's, It was compellingly written.

I always liked the split story, One second you are in ancient Rome, the other you are doing parkour around modern day Italy. The only problem I sort of have with this game is that the dialouge during battles repeats itself quite often, but that doesn't get in the way of how great this game is, also I have yet to see a game which offers this level of fluidity in combat.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра, которая по факту является (дополнением) ко второй части, но ничем не уступает ей, а в каких то моментах даже превосходит ее, хотя у нее тоже есть свои так сказать грехи.
    Ничего особо не поменялось, все так же продолжение истории Эцио, только уже в возрасте.
    В игре сохранилось все что было во второй части и даже улучшилось, но есть моменты по типу как передача чего то, кроме яблока из рук в руки и тут у меня появляется грусть, потому что во второй части, когда ты подкупал Глашатаев, что бы они ничего плохого о тебе не говорили, там была анимация, как вы передаете, мешок с деньгами, что бы он перестал о вас говорить, а здесь, он просто пустую руку в пустую руку кладет и -500 на экране появляться.
    Игра позволяет создать свой клан грубо говоря Ассасинов, качать их, прекольная механика я бы даже сказал, но в плане сюжета, уже не так ярко, как было со второй частью, да и начало меня в ступор ввело, очень причем сильно, как то не продуманно все там вышло, слишком быстро.

    The new added brotherhood system is very good addition and the multiplayer was so good and addictive. Still a little worse then the second game.

    Polished conversion of the console version cannot be labeled as an add-on. This is an excellent full-featured game with interesting multiplayer mode. Period. [Issue#203]

    Built on the shoulders of Assassin's Creed II, Brotherhood is the most polished and robust execution of the Assassin's Creed formula yet.

    Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood isn't as much a sequel as a completion to the second game, and while this is certainly the best game of the three so far, you probably don't want to jump into the story without having played at least the second game first.
