    As much as I loved the whole massive crowd aspect, the one thing that annoyed me was that the beggars only seemed to hound you down. I hope they change that and make them more random so you feel more like just another face in the crowd.

    In the first city you weren't bombarded by beggars (you can certainly hear them) until later on for some reason. Pissed me off.

    Yeah...I started doing that too and my wife would yell at me.

    Those beggars, and the drunk bastards that try to shove me when I walk by.

    The first one was great. The repetitiveness definitely did hinder it for me, and stopped it from being a 10...With that said, I'm definitely picking up part 2 as it seems they fixed a lot of the complaints people had with the game...And I'm pretty interested to see where this story is headed

    I got bored of the game 2 or so targets before the end

    How does the first 1 end?

    They should add a mode after you beat it that lets you just skip all the information collecting parts and go straight to where you have to start the main target assassination. Like a Boss only mode or something, that'd be sweet.

    IT'S ALL A CONSPIRACY, MAN

    But for real:

    Spoiler: show
    Altair discovers that his master is really from the Knights Templar and he planned the assassinations so he could get the artifact for himself and take over the world...Abstergo is a modern day version of the Knights, and the secretary is a member of the real assassin's guild. Altair confronts Al Mualim after convincing Richard to stand down (who has mustered a force to come after Altair at the behest of Robert de Sable), Al Mualim uses the relic recovered early in the game against Altair, gogo boss fight, after Al Mualim dies the memory fully synchronizes and the locations of the rest of the relics is discovered...Abstergo makes off with the information with the intention of using them in their new satellite communications tech to do the whole global brainwashing thing again...you're stuck inside the facility while its being raided (supposedly by the assassins) but now have Altair's "sense" and can see glyphs all over the chamber implicating the Knights in various world events going back through centuries of history...and a large mural on the wall in your "bedroom" with several mysterious mixed religious references. Fin.

    tl;dr- Shit's fucked, Abstergo is evil and wants world domination, still no earthly idea about Desmond's past

    Abstergo was the company Desmond was locked up by right? I'm in the same situation basically, I got to the part where I was on my way to kill Richard and then I had to return it to blockbuster so I missed the end.

    No need to get excited, the 'trailer' sucks. Just posting it, in case anyone is curious.

    Very much looking forward to this. Loved the story of the first game and the ending sequence. Despite the repetitive nature of the game, I was still very engrossed by it. If they do improve as the article says they will, I will surely be hooked once again.

    I cant wait for this. Alot of my friends didnt like the first one that much, but I was enthralled. Jumping from the rooftops to shank a guard down below never got old for me. This is one of those games I got 1000/1000 on and very proud of doing so.
