madbuk Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Terrible controls? What? Let me guess, you're holding run and X while climbing. Yeah, dont do that, causes Ezio to jump backwards because thats how its supposed to work. Seen people complain about that before and it is always baffling. The controls are perfect. Flat plot? Ezio's journey from reckless youth to seasoned and wise Assassin is a trilogy, I think it's a little unfair to judge it without seeing his full development over the trilogy. Repetitive gameplay? There's way more variety on offer here than there is in Uncharted 2, which is a horrendously bad game and by far the worst Uncharted. It's ludicrous to suggest AC is repetitive and then to go on and praise Uncharted 2. What the fuck? Dull graphics? Huh? AC2's world is vibrant and colourful and is a great change of pace from the dull gray/brown/black combo that was so present last gen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conker Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Personally i loved AC2, , but your entitled to say what you feel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I need more BIOSHOCK Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Fully agree. I recently picked it up for dirt cheap from CEX with the intention of finishing it and getting all the other remaining trophies after my bro played it years ago on my account. No chance, the controls are that shit its basically unplayable. The furthest I got was just after the first sequence when you have to follow some fat guy without being detected which is impossible to do with the shit controls. Rather than walk the idiot would always run instead. After getting on youtube to see exactly what I had to do I still had no joy after an hour of trying. Gave up on the piece of shit game. Plus the story and everything about it really didn't do anything for me at all. Tried AC3 when I got that on plus which looked boring as fook and that will stay at 1% forever. Everyones tastes are different but I'll never see the appeal with this fuck awful boring game series. I hear the newer ones are better but na. I'd rather shit in my hands and clap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fubuki Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 Well I do like the music. Ezio is kind of cool. I think Dunkey explained why I hated the game really well. How do you make an open world game with Assassins be boring? 2 minutes ago, madbuk said: Terrible controls? What? Let me guess, you're holding run and X while climbing.

Just those old AC game controls where he randomly jumps off buildings, doesnt do what I want and so forth made this game very annoying. Like OP posted Uncharted is also an old game and those controls are much smoother. Who are you, DSP? Stop blaming the game because you couldn't figure out the simple control scheme. Don't hold the jump button while climbing and then he wont jump. He's doing exactly what you tell him to do because you're holding that button for no reason. This is like complaining about not being able to walk normally as Drake because you couldn't figure out you're not supposed to hold down the aim button at all times.

How do you make an open world game with Assassins be boring? Really? Uncharted 2 was my favorite loved it. I think I might platinum it again on ps3 There are so many problems I have with Uncharted 2 I could be sat here ranting for ages. So let's just restrict it to single player and ignore the bullshit in MP that ND decided to pull to make everyone move onto Uncharted 3. The plot is about as generic as it gets, a search for a magical mcguffin while the characters get no development in the process. Drake has no reason to be slaughtering hundreds of men, or to be putting himself - and, more importantly, his friends - in mortal danger for some mythical object that may not even be real. The game's opening is also pretty shitty as when you replay it later, there's more dialogue. Where was that the first time? As for the gameplay, yikes. It has the worst balance between puzzles, exploration and shooting in the entire franchise. It's just shooty bang bangs and explosions from start to finish with one or two pitifully easy puzzles in the entire game. The platforming is as dull as ever with every climbable ledge being unnaturally painted yellow or white. It feels so shallow due to how easy everything is, why even have climbing or puzzles in the first place if you arent going to make them challenging? The shooting was bad and RNG based too. Firing when your reticle is over the opponent isn't a guaranteed hit like it was in Uncharted 1, which is pretty bullshit, and enemy staggering is also RNG based (though the staggering is even worse in 3, admittedly). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deluziion90 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Comparing Origins with the older games isn't really fair. It's like comparing old god of war games with the recent released one. Yes you have a franchise name but that's all. Origins has a huge open world with the current gen formula: Open world+quests+RPG+look goddamn nice Why is everyone so triggered all of a sudden ?.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd call the game very colourful, except that town from Sforza. I don't think enemy variety is important in a game like this, where much focus is on story, stealth and exploration instead. I think the missions are pretty varied (many open world games have side missions be repeated across the map - hell, even Horizon Zero Dawn is guilty of this). And I think the game does a great representation of Firenze, San Gimignano and Venice. Shame you don't like it,but I definitely get why. Looking at your arguments, I'd still say give Origins a try once it's cheap. You might be positively surprised seeing such a game came from this legacy. 10 minutes ago, MIKEY-L-666 said: Pictures or it didn't happen.

You need to get over it lol I don't care that you hate it. You're allowed to hate it, it's called an opinion. What I think is stupid is you claiming you'd rather shit all over your hands than play a game, which is obviously a hyperbole and brings nothing useful to the discussion. Think about games however you want but from your responses in these AC II threads it seems clear that you have zero interest in an actual discussion and just want to hate on the game for the sake of negativity. And if the discussion goes like that, I'm out. I'm all for a normal and mutually respectful conversation but this is obviously not one. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
