Assassin's Creed, sorry guys I give up.

Segatron Genesis... call me the wizard.
I did not like this game at all. It was extremely repetitive. I busted my butt collecting flags and saving people in the first city Damascus. I received nothing, I felt like I wasted 4 hours wandering around blindly.

So after I felt good about myself, I go to Jerusalem (sp?) as told after my first assassination job. The town looked and felt like Damascus...even had the exact same quest and missions...what gives?

I like being repetitive in a game of GAUNTLET or D&D Heroes, because it's mindless hack n slash that's fun in multiplayer mode. Yet in a game like this, I would expect something of originality in each world I travel to. If the game wanted to look like Shadow of the Colossus, at least give us something better to do, than hunt down the same ol' same ol' over and over again...such as:

Catching flags in insane amounts of 100 in each town (except 20 in the very first), hearing conversations by eve's dropping, saving citizens, killing templars, assassinating higher power people, and finding towers.

That's all I really experienced in 6 hours of playing this game today.

Now that I think of it, was this really a game or a collection of mini-games? Ubisoft's Rayman Raving Rabbids is for mini-games, not "Capture the 100 flags" in Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed.

Hate to be a downer, but this game needed more time imho. It's a sweet concept by far, but the final product puts me to sleep.
 
Ah, I just stuck with the main story and quests. It's much more fun that way. This is in my top 10 games for this gen of systems for sure.
 
I think it's pretty fun, but I only pick it up every once in a while. I think I'm gonna tackle Blue Dragon next, I'm almost done with the first disc...

Maybe that's it? I love the storyline, but perhaps I'm so worried about what to do and such. I'm gonna give it another shot

What's the sci-fi aspect they keep briniging up in forums, and T.V.

The game doesn't take place in medieval times, it takes place in the future, with the main character hooked up to a machine that visualizes your memories of your ancestors, which happens to be an assassin. It's certainly not stupid and offers a unique take on storytelling
 
So to be nerdy I totally commissioned a company who just bought the rights to produce all the items in Assassin's Creed to create me a costume. It is expensive but will be worth the time and money. All the weapons are fully functional High carbon steel, the leatherworks and clothing will also be functional. Ren-Faire will be awesome this year^^.

As for the game play, I agree. Do not focus on the minigames. That is like playing Final Fantasy 8 just for the card game( which was freaking awesome by the way)
 
Ugh... truth be told I started the second play through just for that as well. I was hooked. and on Ten, I swear I held off beating the game because I liked that watersport soo much.
 
Blitzball was awesome. The team I had, they had more than 200 wins and less than 10 losses. I'm prolly nowhere near that good anymore though...
