Assassin’s Creed II
The fellowships of assassins return. The anticipated release of Assassin’s Creed 2 is a double edge sword for its Ubisoft developers. The expectations are extremely high for the sequel of the game that sold more than 8 million copies when it first came out.
Contrary to the first Assassin’s Creed, which is about Altair (an all-white dressed killer operating in the Holy land in the 12th century), the sequel is based on his offspring, Ezio Auditore, a young Italian noble who joins the fellowships of assassins more by coincidence than by choice.
Desmond becomes an assassin
The loyal fans of Assassin’s Creed already know that the events unfolding in the historic past of the game are in reality the “genetic memory” of somebody named Desmond Miles, a modern bar tender who’s the descendant of the Altair and Ezio. In the first Assassin’s Creed, pharmaceutical company Abstergo kidnapped him and kept him prisoner in order to decrypt his valuable memories.
In the beginning, he didn’t offer any resistance, but in the first minutes of Assassin’s Creed 2, Desmond escapes with Lucy Stillman, his accomplice (played by Kristen Bell), by killing every security guards standing in their way.
Later, in the new assassins lair, Lucy tells Desmond that the more he relives Ezio Auditore’s past, the more he will gradually gain the aptitudes of his ancestor. “We will train you to become one of ours.”
The variety of missions in Assassin’s Creed 2’s
The structure of the first Assassin’s Creed (often criticized for its rigid and linear tendencies) has been totally revamped in the sequel.
The history of Ezio and of the fellowship of assassins evolves more naturally and the two new types of missions are progressively introduced. Inside Ezio’s skin, we race against our brother by jumping from rooftops to rooftops; we fight against our rivals of the Pazzi clan; beat up the face of a punk who broke our sister’s heart; steel from the pockets of fellow citizens; climb a prison tower to help our incarcerated father and kill a corrupted judge…
Actually, there is so much things to do and objects to use in Assassin’s Creed 2 that some players might be intimidated by the enormous content.
Assassin’s Creed 2’s mysterious Ezio
In spite of the strength of the first Assassin’s Creed, it might be difficult for the fans to identify with Altair, the total opposite of Ezio, a passionate and extroverted man of the renaissance. Early in the game, he’s been interrupted in his lovemaking with a young woman, and has to flee from the furious father by escaping from the last floor’s window. But he is also a very loving son to his mother, a generous brother, and (later on) the one that will carry the burden of his father.
