    Just too good!

    Honestly no words for this great game! The best game in the AC series.

    A True Masterpiece, A True 10/10.

    Assassin's Creed II is a story of a young, charismatic, flamboyant kid without a care in the world...who's family has been framed of treason & sentenced to death. He's forced to grow up overnight, quite literally. He flees the city, hoping to escape the poor hand life has suddenly dealt him. This same kid gets thrown into a never-ending battle between two factions. The Assassins & The Templars.

    The Templars fight to control the masses & create a "New World". In order to so, they search every corner of the Earth to find "artifacts" from ancient civilizations, which have capabilities of enlightening those who use them, but can also bend the minds of the people.

    The Assassins fight for Free Will, they fight for full freedom. They seek to prevent The Templars from synthesizing the minds of civilization.

    That kid finds out his father has been keeping many secrets from him, including his career as an Assassin. The kid still insists on wanting to run away from all of this. He laughs at this crazy talk of "Assassins", "Templars", "mind control" & "new worlds".... Until he avenges his family's honor, killing his first targets.... And get this, they just so happened to be Templars.

    He realizes his father's work is deeper than he thought. This was a conspiracy unraveled before his eyes. This kid who had no goals, no passions, has finally found purpose. He sets on a path to finish his father's work, all of it. As the story progresses, this kid grows into a man, a poet of the kill... Traveling through Florence, Tuscany, Romagna, Venice & Rome, to assassinate those who seek to oppress & corrupt the minds of the free... All in the midst of the Italian Renaissance.

    His name is Ezio Auditore da Firenze, and he...is an Assassin.

    10 years later and still the best Assassin's Creed game

    I have played through almost all of the games in this series and none have matched up to this game. This is the perfect Assassin's Creed game and has aged quite well.

    One of the best and must play games of all time.

    Fantastic storyline and great gameplay. Impressive graphics from game that developed in 2009.

    One of the most defining games ever made

    I'm playing it through right now and I'm still so amazed by how good it is. The storytelling, the plot, the voice acting, intrigue, it's all so good. The different kind of missions tie the story seamlessly together. It's true the gameplay has certainly improved in many ways throughout subsequent games (like fast traveling, hiding in bushes and whistling). But the simplicity is part of the reason why I love this game so much and I absolutely disregard AC Valhalla. The city building in this game is beautiful, filled with people, opportunities and obstacles, so much more than in sequels. Ezio and Desmond are perhaps the first and last characters within the entire the AC universe that I truly effortlessly rooted for.

    • Trivia
      The map symbols for Templar Lairs are actually that of the Knights Hospitallier.
    • Goofs
      Leonardo Da Vinci would have never been called "Mr. Da Vinci"; that would have been the equivalent of someone calling a person "Mr. From New York". He would have been properly addressed as "Leonardo." However, in the first Assassin's Creed Lucy explains to Desmond that the Animus translates the spoken language in the past to current day terms and grammar so that he would better understand the scenes. (In Italian, "da" means "from", as in "from" Vinci; e.g., Leonardo da Vinci. "De" means "of" as in Lorenzo de Medici (of the family of the Medici). "Di" means "of" as in tintura di iodio.)
