I didn’t play the first one and I’ve got not problem working out what’s going on.

The second game has a recap at the start, although you might not understand why there is a wall of gibberish standing before you after it finishes.

@BleakHarvest

If you care about Desmond’s story, then yes you might want to play play Assassin’s Creed as well. But Ezio’s story is what this game is really about, and you won’t have to know what happened in the first for that.

Do I have to suffer through the first one before I give a shit about the second?

Getting a copy tom hopefully, really looking fwd to it as I loved the original even with all the repetitiveness.

Lot of friends playing it say the first 2 hours are absolutely dire and then it blossoms into a great game…

I love choice I just dislike how I thought I made a gimp character but it turns out that dexterity based damage was just broken and waiting to be patched lol.

I hope my rental company sends it to me next, i’ve managed to steer clear of anything that could possibly spoil it (haven’t read any reviews or watched any videos in the last few weeks)

i recently had dragon age, but found there was far to much choice when leveling up, so i made one very simple choice and sent it back. i think i’ll have a lot more fun being led through a story like AC2.

i’m i the only person who doesn’t like too much choice?

it really is a lot better than the first game, granted there is still SOME repetitiveness to it in the optional assassination side missions.. but definitely not the same exact cookie cutter missions/areas of the last game

Is it 1.6 million or 1.7 million? Guess it doesn’t really matter. Pretty much the same as Modern Warfare 2′s UK figure.

Nice! And from what people are saying, it very much deserves its success.
