On the whole a bit disappointing ...

Actually, I write not soo happy recessions. But because of the many, many positive recessions here, I must here also out my view of things represent (and with whom I would certainly stand not alone).

The upshot times ahead: the whole is AC3 bit disappointing.

And this for several reasons:

- My main problem is that Connor is actually zero daruf intent to proceed quietly. What's that for an assassin who storms into the battles and massacres it all down, what presents itself in its way. Just because there are Englishmen? Altair and Ezio had tried most guards to go out of their way to avoid unnecessary death. Not so Connor. The is actually driven only by hatred. Of course, you could also proceed with Altair and Ezio stormy. It really is a good thing - especially for players who do not seek the perfect way to sneak in secret. This choice between stealth and aggressive approach is one taken in AC3 but perfectly. Here you have to proceed aggressively. And for me that is not the way a real assassin would act ... I have tried several times to reach certain goals by stealth. I almost did not get. Sooner or later, flies on you and then it's back to fight. This leads to an enormous frustration. The guards see a, although they actually look in a different direction. If you want to turn off a guard with bows and arrows in secret, some will only hurt and instead of that they only examine where the arrow came easy is equal to an alarm going on and you're busted. All instantly know where you are and again heißts, from the battle. I've loaded and loaded, it tries again and again - and I know God is not a bad Schleicher. I've always liked games played in which one must proceed in secret. But here I am downright forced abzumetzeln everything arises in my way. If you like, the mags, but I can do without it.

- The second problem rießen blends actually on seamlessly. Because our main protagonist is just only driven by hate and always fights rather than innocent (yes, even the English are all not thoroughly evil - that's just their job and their death will change nothing) to spare, it is my right unsymphatisch , Even besides that, he referred to his mentor as "the old man" and brings to him no gratitude. On the contrary, it makes it even more stupid to. Also elsewhere Connor is just an ass. Strangely White he is to the settlement residents again remarkably friendly - almost anschleimend. He has in any case null character. And the worst thing is: He never questioned his actions. The Templars justified - but instead as Altair, pay the doubts about his ways, Connor always assumes that the Templars are stupid and only what he thinks is right. He never listens to advice, he's just a stupid selfish and with whom I have to play. I just can not feel pure in Connor, identify with him as yet with Altair and Ezio. Many here upset about the first sequences with Haythem. Mir is the even likeable than Connor. Anyway, he is not so stupid and do not want to kill too many.

- The third problem: side missions. How unkind it all about? Of the settlement and naval missions except time (which really are very good), a the side missions are simply entered in a log, which you can then meet as necessary. The relevant menus are also very simple and unloving. And for what? Why hunt? What shipping any columns? What privateer missions (even if they are excellent, but the meaning and purpose or reward reveals itself not me). What in any "club" (which you do not even see) be included? Why all the mini games like checkers, mill, etc. - very nice indeed, but somewhere also unnecessary and also unfair difficult. What exploring the Masonic tunnel when I but also may arrive at each port by fast travel.

- Fourth problem: Sinnhaltigkeit the side missions undecided times - what do I do with the money? Remove one city? - Nil. Improve my armor? - Nil. Improve my other equipment? Also only in parts: I bought a single sword and more you do not need. The rest is quite nice, but useless. The only sensible is upgrading the own ship.

- Fifth issue - also very big problem: missing match flow. Constantly you will be interrupted by any loading screen. This sucks mightily. And then constantly (this must be so, but please not that many), these cutscenes. It has been partly the feeling you NEN film looks at instead of playing. The game is limited to running around and fighting.

- Sixth problem: Where the hell's the music? While it has a great music during the missions, but if you are traveling outside of missions in the cities or the borderland, one hears only the typical urban or rural sounds. From my perspective, is here clearly the atmosphere flutes. Why not a nice music in the background?

So, that's enough for now. Although I certainly would think even more, but at least once the main criticisms. Now I should sometimes follow what positives can so as not to appear too daunting.

The graphics are really awesome, certainly with minor bugs, but that does not bother me so bad. The entire environment looks fantastic and believable. Sunrises and sunsets are extremely beautiful to look at. In addition, a weather and even a change of season. Super-duper. But not only that. The whole world is so beautifully done that you like to remain standing times and looks more closely. Even all the animals everywhere. really great. What's also great, is the movement in the trees. That just looks great. Is me personally but something slightly out of hand as possible. The good Connor climbs and jumps as if by itself, without me as a player would be required somewhere. Oh crap, again negative criticism ... What could I write? Story? These times prefer anything because I here want to tuck no spoilers - but the story is certainly very good, if not outstanding.

Well, I'm pretty disappointed with the game and will have me, even if it is difficult for me as a fan of the series, to admit that this was a bad buy, despite the positive points. Outweigh the negative easy. Man has broken here with too many good ideas from the past parts.

Would I recommend buying? When all other parts of your home has to complete probably yes, but only when the game is cheaper. If you do not have the previous parts, I would recommend the game just people who like it anywhere by fighting for without having to think big.
