[quote name='Trakan']I loved 1, though it did get repetitive. I couldn't get into 2. I don't like the Ezio character, there were a lot of fetch quest missions in the first few hours, the guards seem to spot you immediately, and there's too much of that present time Desmond shit.[/QUOTE]
I didn't think the Desmond sections were really that much longer than the first -- they do a large chunk of memory sequences before they take you out... but they added the three longer sections with more control/action over Desmond. My main issue with the game, not that it was a real negative, but the game felt more like GTA:Renaissance than the first game... it's hard to explain, something about the mission structures and the like... also that a lot of the missions, even if they "lead" up to a major one didn't actually feel like parts of the larger mission.
