I just got Assassin's creed, so I'm a little behind, but I want to get my opinion out there.
Assassin's creed is an overall good game. It has excellent mechanics that are fun to execute (pun intended). If it has any slip anywhere it's that it's as repetitive as a power rangers show. Sneak into the city, climb up some churches, interrogate people by punching or pick-pocketing them, plan your attack, kill target, run for you life. This is the step by step plan you will follow for every mission.
I'm not saying the repetitiveness is bad, it's still fun, it's just that the game hardly throws you a curve ball. So what if your character is a master assassin, if every mission went perfectly, (and they do) it would get boring.
Combat is not the game's strong suit. Thankfully, you can almost always avoid it. you get four weapons, but I found myself only using the assassin blade, and only the sword when I absolutely needed to fight. Most of the combat time is spent waiting for your enemy to attack so you can counter and insta-kill him. This gets old fast, so I tried to run from every fight, and you can. It's good to see a game give you options on how you want to handle things.
However, when you do choose to run away, it's fairly easy to lose guards, you have the ability to turn invisible whenever you sit on a bench, or jump in a pile of hay.
this review was rushed, so I'm sorry if it was terrible, at the end of the day, you should by Assassin's creed because it has fabulous mechanics, and you will sincerely enjoy stabbing beggars.
