14 hours. Only have 49% of Rome rebuilt
2 of those were bringing up my Recruits to Assassin level.
Didn't do any sidequests. Bought properties but didn't go out of my way to do so.
Overall, very good game.
Combat is still wait to be killed but I'm not complaining.
Story is top notch and 2012 plot progression was welcome.

Anyone else had a spin of the multiplayer? Its not half bad. Although, i spawned right in front of someone who was hunting for me at one stage. I could see it being a real tough and fun battle if you developed your skills in it.
There's alot of little things in the game i wish they'ed touch up. Like using both hidden blades, I don't know how many times i've walked up between two guards to try and kill them both, but Ezio only attacks on, and then other times Ezio attacks two guards, by teleporting between them.

Excuse then double post, but shit just got crazy before the credits rolled. I've got no idea what's happening now. I haven't collected all of 'the truth' this time around, to be honest, i had a hard time finding all the 'glitches' to locate them.
I was waiting most of the game to find out if there was a traitor/double agent among Lucy's team. I kept going out on the animus and spotted the red trail. And since red normally means enemy... And then Lucy seemed to vanish for half the game. Now i feel kinda bad.
I didn't realize that wasn't Minerva at the end initially. I must not have been listening intently enough. Did pick up on her sounding rather hostile though
Oh well, back into the Animus to find subject 16's shit.

I'm liking the scenarios and new features quite a bit, the plot is getting a bit overboard IMO though (still very much enjoyable if you shrug the exaggerations), I read somewhere around here that it would be nicer if it was all about Ezio and shiz, taking away the Animus thingie, and I agree 50 - 50.
Really cool to be able to explore more from Rome this time, but it made me wonder...
Has anyone had a frozen game in brotherhood?. It happened to me twice while playing AC2, a while back, during an assassination contract. Ezio walks to the target and as you're trying to escape... it freezes. after those two times it never happened again (then again, I made a habit of not escaping and killing the flock of guards everytime), but it sure makes me wonder.

I've had the game 'freeze' on loading screens, not during gameplay.

interesting article about a survey that had some relationship to the next AC game.. Last 5 questions are all Multiplayer related (though some mention of Co-Op). Defiantly want 6. Ezio is done with, i'd think it lazy if they just kept with his story. It wasn't interesting to begin with, and its been dragged out into a second game. I'd love to see better use of the bombs in the game. Smoke bomb's were my favorite feature in AC2, and between AC2 and Brotherhood, its basically the only item you can't get a bigger bag for. So what do people want in a new AC?

Not too fond of the next reveal this fast. The three games have been great and all but there's only so much rehashed stuff one can chew through. Awesomness on the DLC though, I'll have to look a let's play of it up when it's out.

I've replayed AC:B and I picked up some things the second time around Spoilers? But we've all finished the game There HAS to be a traitor in Lucy's group. As Redemption said, there is a red footprints leading to Sanctuary. My theory in ACII was that Lucy's groups were actually Templars pretending to be Assassin's in order for Desmond to be cooperative and get the information Abstergo wants If I had to pick a single traitor I'd say Lucy, just.....I dunno. It wouldn't surprise me In the Temple Shaun mentions the Phrygian Cap and the Masonic Eye both only occurring at one point in history but then Desmond picks up the Apple and time freezes. A quick Google search reveals two possible answers One: The French Revolution as the Phrygian Cap was first worn there and the Masonic Eye appeared on the Rights of Man and of The Citizen document. Two: The American Revolution. The Phrygian Cap was used on early American coins and the Masonic Eye is used on current money (But they have to appear at the same time so that could possibly rule out this option) MTV (I know, bear with me) has an interesting image regarding the Freemasons I find the Freemasons fascinating and would fit very well into AC mythos It'd be a neat time to explore from the Assassin's POV but my money is on the French Revolution for ACIII Now the ending During the credits we hear two new voices and Desmond. Desmond is thrown back into the Animus and we don't know if the people are Assassins or Templars but lets pull scope of the ending back a little further with Subject 15 and 16 Subject 15 was a pregnant woman and she was declared a lost cause by Abstergo because she was reliving her ancestors memories but the memories of the fetus' father was interfering. The machine was reading both sets of memories at the same time Subject 16 we're all familiar with but after completing the Truth Clusters he leaves you with cryptic warnings Subject 16: She is not who you think she is. Everything you hope to become, everything you hold dear, it’s already gone. Desmond: Explain. Please. Subject 16: Eden. She... in Eden. Find Eve. The Key. Her DNA Desmond: Tell me! Subject 16: I cannot... The sun... Your son... Too weak... Must replenish energy... Desmond: Don’t go! Subject 16: I am with you 'til the end. Find me, in the darkness. So to tie the oddities of Subject 15's Animus sessions and Subject 16's parting words, are we looking at an Inception scenario? Does Abstergo have Desmonds son? Did the events of ACII and Brotherhood happen, Desmond escapes to look for Eve (in Africa? Eden was in Africa as revealed in the ACII Truth Video), Abstergo looking for a lead uses Desmonds son? If this an Animus session within an Animus session with Desmonds kid then that means whatever happens in 2012 has came and passed so is the world in chaos as two shadow factions fight over a ruined world? Are they trying to find the temples to use the sealed away technology to rebuild the world? Assassins want the tech for good and the Templars want it for dominance? I dunno, just a theory Still a great game

Alright, so we've got word on the next AC project coming out slowly. What kind of project it is remains to be seen though. Assassins Creed : Revelations. Could be another entry in the series ala Brotherhood, where its not a numerical entry in the series, but still continues the main story of the series. From whats been shown so far, some people are suggesting it could see a return of Altair.

I really hope not. Altair was dull as dirt. I want a new Assassin, personally

I'd rather Altair to Ezio. But a new assassin would be preferred.

Mentor huh... interesting. Wonder if Ezio will use the apple to somehow relive Altair's memories. Then you'll have Desmond reliving an Ancestor reliving an Ancestors memories.
