Default Re: assassin\'s Creed

Ace,

The review simply reads as

"MY OPINION IS RIGHT, AND IF YOU DISAGREE IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE PLAYING THE GAME WRONG AND HAVE INCORRECT EXPECTATIONS"

The problem is that most of the dissenting reviews approach the game from the far less fanboyish perspective. Even the 7/10s are "it looks and plays great, but it's very repetative" He attempts to argue that their perception is incorrect because of how and when they're playing the game.

I haven't played the game, I probably won't, because there's nothing that makes me feel like I've wasted my money more than stupid repitition. All I really need to know is that there's 9 missions and they all follow the same path and it doesn't matter to me how good the game looks.

The reason I mentioned you is because your rebuttal wrt Oblivion was basically the same. "You're playing it wrong".

A well designed game should be fun for people no matter how they choose to play it. Suggesting otherwise is just making a fanboyish excuse.
