Storyline
After escaping from Abstergo, Desmond Miles is led to an assassin safe house by Lucy Stillman, and accesses the genetic memories of Ezio Auditore da Firenze, his ancestor from 15th Century Renaissance Italy. After witnessing his father and brothers murdered, Ezio becomes an assassin and vows revenge on those who committed the crime. With the help of family and real historical figures, including Leonardo da Vinci, Ezio uncovers a greater conspiracy which would lead him directly to the religious hub of the world and a Spaniard by the name of Rodrigo Borgia, the man who would become Pope Alexander VI.

While at the hideout, Desmond seems to insinuate that he's never had any experience as an assassin. However, in Assassin's Creed, Desmond retorts Dr. Vidic's statement that "he's an assassin", saying that he "doesn't do that, not anymore." Desmond also lived amongst assassins during his early years, it's only safe to assume that Desmond has some experience as an assassin, unless, as the story states, he ran away from the commune too soon to learn anything valuable.

The assassin's creed series is simply brilliant. Offering almost complete freedom to do as you please. The game would be perfect apart from a couple of slight problems: 1. The game tries to edge you towards killing the character a certain way. For instance, in Assassin's Creed 1 you could either fight your way to your target and kill him before he escapes, or you could try and sneak up on him. While in Assassin's Creed 2 it will only give you one way to your target or tell you to kill them a certain way which I feel spoils the freedom it gave in the previous game. 2. The game is simply too easy. You can fight off most the guards by simply blocking and countering, or dodging behind them to finish them off. Although it may not be as easy as Brotherhood with the execution streaks which allow you to kill 50+ foes without getting touched, it still makes the game a little boring for players. 3. I enjoy puzzle games such as Professor Layton but some of the AC2 puzzles were ridiculous while others just required you to briefly flick over what it asked. Such a wide difficulty range confused me as I often thought I was doing all of them wrong or the game was bugged. 4. The game has no replay value. After finishing the main and side quests there is very little to do apart from running around Italy with your "invincible" Assassin.
Apart from the four points above, Assassin's Creed is perfect. Offering a compelling storyline with real emotions and believable characters. The variety of weapons and quests stops the game from being too repetitive, which was a problem with AC1. Also the different armours allow customisation but really every player who has finished the game only ever uses the best armour since no other armour can compare to it. I strongly recommend this game and more so than the others in the series, I hope Assassin's Creed Revelations can change that though
