is anyone who disliked Assassin's Creed excited for AC2?

The original AC was one of the most boring gaming experiences I've ever had, but I can't help but feel excited for the next one. The trailers have all really impressed me. Am I just hoping against hope that it will be a significant improvement?

im excited about AC2.... the original had a great story even though the gameplay were so repetitive

Well, the main problem with the first installment of the Assassin's Creed series was its lack of gameplay variety. The gameplay mechanics were there, but there just really wasn't a broad range of missions to take part in. From what I have seen and heard about AC II, they have focused much attention to variety. So I am betting that it will be a great improvement over the first game.

What I found very promising about the gameplay videos was the fact that you can play in night-time environments. I never understood why an assassin would work during the day in plain sight. I also like the fact that you are unarmed, and you get your weapons by disarming enemy guards. In addition, I think the Renaissance time period will lend a much better atmosphere to the game than the bland, desert environments of the first game.

So yes, I do plan on purchasing AC 2, despite the fact that I didn't really enjoy the first one.

I own AC and enjoyed playing it when I bought it. I would like to play AC2 however there are other games coming out around the same time that I'd rather play so I will probably never get to playing AC2.

AC was amazing.

ACII will be no different.

I'm not actually excited... maybe a bit... i'm more on hoping it gets better... the first one was really good... maintaining that status is a step backwards.

At first i was like:

But now it's like:

since it's gonna probably like AC 1:Boring and repetetive.

I'm not hyped, but it's something to look into once it comes out.. I also really disliked the first.

The first one was alright but the sequel doesn't look like as big of an improvement as i hoped it would be.

I liked the first one, but it was very short lived. I don't even care about the second one now.

Not particularly, the first one bored me to tears, but i'll remain open minded and porbably rent it first Which is what i should have done with the first

I thought AC was super boring put I just beat it for the story. I don't know if I will get AC2 though.

I actually loved AC until it got to the point where it was boring. I never got the chance to even come close to finishing it because it got boring real quick. The trailer for part 2 looks great though and I am thinking about picking it up when it is released.

Assassin's Creed 1 was great, very reptitive though. I heard there will be more things to do in Assassin's Creed II so it'll less reptitive as the first one.

Still not sure what to think about this one. I played the 1st one and it was ok in my opinion. I will at least rent the 2nd one and give it a try.

Perjury

The only thing what was truly great about the first game, was the story. I`m looking forward how it is going to turn out.

just began AC and already angry at the false freedom, you can "save villagers" and "go to next viewpoint" to "see new missions" but it's only 100% repetitive and not real freedom. I blame the X360 with the small DVDs that won't allow each setting to have their own different mission styles.

if you didnt played assassin creed so why you buy ps3!!!!

its a great game like MGS4 iam just waiting AC2;)

i have taken a look at his post history, i think its a joke account...

anyway, yah the game was repetitive, but when you turned the map off, everything got more intense, and it was a better game imo.

if there is variety for weapons/upgrades/missions then this game will be my most anticipated this year...

Hopefully. the onlookers have learned how to shut up. They could be so annoying at times.

I feel the same way basically. I gave up on AC at some point out of frustration/boredom , but I'm strangely pulled back into the hype with the sequel.

i hated AC but ACII iwll be better

I wouldn't say I disliked AC, but I did get bored of it much quicker than most games. AC2 has got my attention as it does look like a vast improvement so far, as long as they fix the controls and add more mission variety I will gladly add it to my collection.

I'll just have to wait and see..

I laugh at all the people who bought into the hype, played Assassin's Creed, didn't like it and are doing it again.

I hope Assassin's Creed II disappoints you.

Assassin's Creed was a great game - 8.5. But the missions were too repetitive and boring. In AC2 though, there are more mission types and combat is much better. I say it looks a lot better already :)

Assassin's Creed 1 had so much potential, and it looks like AC2 is what AC1 should've been like, so yes I disliked the first and I am excited for the second.

The funny thing is, I was never hyped for the game in the first place. My girlfriend wanted to play it because of the trailer so we went and bought a pre-owned copy...

She still hasn't played it yet :roll:

AC2 actually looks like it might be good, the first was fun for the first few levels, but with all the repetition I quickly tired. The cliffhanger at the end did leave me wanting though.
