Great, but not a quantum leap

After seeing so many trailers and Walkthroughs, I was totally fired up for the game, but also very uncertain whether I would find my way as mediocre talented gamer yet. After less than 1 hour but it is as if you had never played something else and that is what we can now see positive or negative. My review of the various aspects:

Duel (-): The opponent does not have to be marked active, passive focus ranges. Connor has upped the many stylish moves, but I am missing several duel Actions: no kicking, no escape, no longer hold. Well, he can fight with two weapons at a time, Ezio could in principle also. Escaping can you now also by building: saw in the trailer of horny, but I have used virtually no. Submersion looks now but from much more realistic.

AnvilNext (+/-): Now you find all seasons and weather conditions. Looks very, very good, but my feeling is the engine affects the gameplay as good as not, except that you can not run as fast in the snow. As I had expected any more, or at least came into this aspect of the promo promising over.

Map (++): If the final version quite similar with a new feature: you can visit certain place, get rid of this unlocked as fast travel points to which you can jump from anywhere in the map go. There are also as previously an underground system that you can explore even this time, incl. Puzzle solving. There are not even able to see all missions, so no need to operate itself exploration work.

Economic System (++): At the beginning it goes hunting to replace meat and skins can then hires one craftsman for his own settlement at. In various missions must ensure to be that the new settlers have enough resources and tools in order to produce goods can. These goods are shipped via convoy (sometimes you have also come to the rescue a) and only if the cash arrives there. Power total absolute blast and also the interaction of inhabitants and the settlement is 1A.

Side missions (+): As in the Brotherhood card is packed with side missions: hunting, Abenteur-, (Around courier, Templars and supply contracts) Fight Club and civil and naval missions and a treasure hunt. Plus pen and card collection and you can play boules and various board games everywhere. It just lacks the "little job assassination in between" and romance is also not announced.

Brotherhood (+): Is slightly reduced: one must fulfill several small missions to recruit assassins can (6 in total). This one can send as before for training missions. It is good that you can now use his brothers in various ways, for example as a sniper, as bodyguards or as a disguised escort.

Story & General Gameplay (+): This time there are several optional objectives per memory so that you are guaranteed every 2nd Mission plays more than once. Well, I find that playing time 2 characters (first Connors Dad and him) and to play various missions with Desmond in the present.

Graphics & environment (+/-): is very good, but it was previously already. Otherwise, there is still the same funny graphic errors as before. Boston and New York can not quite keep up with Rome or Istanbul, but the surrounding area is hammer.Ich thought at first that is desolate hours land to traipse through the woods, but it is not.
