I am not so well alone because: Somewhere cross entered in the AC range and then freed himself no longer. So also again the first-downloaded. Finally, you want to know indeed how it all began? If you have already played the newer parts, fit appearance and handling of Assassin's Creed quite well to the presentation via Animus even deeper into the memories and the past of Desmond Miles dive. Graphics and game control act compared rudimentary, to say, you notice immediately that you are in the very beginning of the series and a 1: 1 has Playstation / Xbox conversion on the hard disk. Also the game is limited to the execution of the basic missions: explore environment / capture target, off & Flags collect without major peculiarities in the course of the mission. Even without annoying part Kraxeleien in some catacombs to lift treasures. Thus, the missions though seem a bit more realistic in the end, especially since both Altair and the AI's are more sensitive or more aggressive - that due to the stereotypical action but also already become a rather drab-tense "downplaying", especially when the the jeweillige task smallest misstep has to start all over again. The graphic and playful splendor of AC 2, the original can not measure it. To In retrospect, however, gratifying to see that the makers of the series have been very hard the successors to miss more depth and corresponding gameplay in virtually all points, made a rather average beginners at an above-average successful "Interactive Adventure" have (with Assassin's Creed 2 and successor) without "verschlimmbessern" ...
Honestly, I had at that time been waiting to Assassin's Creed, I was slightly disappointed and a further purchase of the series against been skeptical (because of: you could have done more of it). One gets so to speak basic training with the basic moves and a base game action missed. No more and no less.
For fans of completeness ok. Otherwise rather enter with AC2!
And again the Notice: Similar to his time with the hated StarForce you need the latest DAY copy drivers that you can download easily. Otherwise the game does not start and you sit in front of 'ner error message. So stay calm and read before getting hysterical "rip-off"! begins to roar ..;)
