A look into the recent internet furore around Destructiod's Assassin's Creed 2 review.
GF365: "Oftentimes, video games have characters who are antagonistic and really not very pleasant. Here are some of the friendliest characters in games where you might not otherwise expect to find them."
This weekend from August 10-14, players can play for free Assassin’s Creed II, Brotherhood, Revelations, Black Flag and Valhalla on Xbox, PlayStation and PC (availability dependent on platform).
GF365: "Most games are not perfect and that may be because of a character or an enemy. Here are 10 mediocre bosses in great games."
The Pursuer from Dark Spuls 2 was great, I think the author just sucks at games.
AC2 is an improvement, sure. but a polished turd is still a turd.
Reviewers can say whatever they want, if you enjoy the game thats all that matters, the number they give doesn't. If it looks intreguing rent it and then pick it up. Reviewers numbers are all over the board, what counts is what you think about the game, wether you are in the majority or minority. And that, is consumer power.
I owned the game and I must say that it was quite enjoyable. I will agree with the reviewer about the graphics. I have owned both games and I agree that the facial animations in the second game are quite disappointing, in my opinion. Surprisingly in the first game I had no problems pulling of counter kills but in this one I found it really difficult. Maybe it's just me.
Experience? is this a game developer or a game reviewer? How many flaim baits the "professionals" have been throwing at us the last 3 years, no wonder gamers lose respect for this reviewers. Gamers seem to be pleased with Assasins Creed 2 and that is all that matter, nip tick is no fun in any game.
@ below
exactly, if they dont behave like professionals, then they cant expect to be treated as such. Years of experience does not make up for low quality performance. Quality >> Quantity
He gave the game 4.5 out of 10
He's a moron, seriously what kind of scores does he give to other games?
AC2 deserves no less than an 8/10
Personally its a 9.5/10 for me
