Assassins Creed II review


Assassins Creed II Review
Summary
Assassin’s creed II is the second game in the assassin’s creed franchise. You play as master Assassin Ezio auditore, at the beginning of the game you start off as a young Ezio and you do lots of jobs for your Father and sister until you eventually get your assassins suit and weapons.
Gameplay
At the beginning of the game I found it a little bit boring because you couldn’t really do a lot but when you get your assassins suit and weapons it gets a lot better because the storyline revolves around you getting your revenge on the templar’s for killing your family, some of the missions are kind of pointless and I didn’t really like the use of side missions because it takes you away from the main storyline and kind of ruins the moment.
Graphics
The graphics in this game are astonishing! The characters in the game are so lifelike and the buildings look really authentic and realistic, you can definitely tell that Ubisoft put a lot of time and effort into this particular game and had their researchers go over every last detail of every game location.
Storyline
The storyline of Assassins creed is really compelling because every moment you are playing the game you are fighting someone or getting some new weapons from Leonardo De Vinci! However, at the very beginning of the game it is kind of confusing because you are playing as Desmond miles who is training to be an Assassin. The only thing I can criticise is the camera which can be really annoying sometimes because it go all over the place.
Final opinion
I rate this game 9/10.
