Just started playing it yesterday. So far, it's much of what's already been seen in Brotherhood. Some of the good points is how they added something new to recruiting new assassins in that some of the ones you recruit have more developed quests rather than simply saving them from rampaging guards, and they're at a whoopin' level 5 instead of level 1.
I also like the new bomb feature and more ammo for the hidden gun, although I honestly never use bombs in the first place so it doesn't make too much of a difference for me. I have been using the gun a lot more, but I'm still in the early stages of the game and haven't gotten around to buying the crossbow, which I favour greatly. The fact you can defend the assassin's den is also something pretty neat, although I'm really good at keeping notoriety low so again, it's no big difference for me.
Otherwise, what I'm seeing in Revelations, I've already seen in Brotherhood. I'm not much interested in Desmond's Journey either, for one thing, and the fact they made it a first person feature loses even more points. The fact they took out faction quests or got rid of the notion of recruiting factions altogether is even worse. I'm not finding the game difficult at all, even when it comes to getting 100% synch in missions. As -Sho- said, it feels pretty cheap and overall rushed. I guess that's what happens when there's really nothing new to add to the game and you only have one year to work on it. Granted, they only took one year to do Brotherhood but it felt like they already knew what to do to improve the gameplay. And I still feel that Brotherhood's multiplayer was far better than Revelations.
