Assassin's Creed: Revelations
The teaser trailer came out in Italy so I felt it was now appropriate to make a new thread for it:
Judging by the last bit of text, I'm guessing that we're gonna find out everything about what went on with the first civilization, how Minerva's and Juno's people came to be on Earth and how they died out after recreating mankind. Judging by the trailer, we'll definitely get to see more of Altair, although the strange thing is that he appears among the soldiers that Ezio is fighting, so there's a lot more going on than we're thinking. Another strange thing is how the animus interface turns black, so I'm wondering if that has something to do with Desmond and his mental stability. And to import something I wrote about the game from the Brotherhood thread: Spoiler for Altair's end of the story:
Spoiler for Ezio's side of the story according to the wiki:

The game wasn't christened "Assassin's Creed III" (even before the arrival of AC:B, the game producers were very clear that they would systematically increment the version number once they jump to a different descendant of Desmond's bloodline), indicating this isn't the final installment of the saga - assuming they'll stop at three arcs.
Revelations, as the trailer suggested, is just the conclusion of Ezio and Altair's tales.

If Ezio's timeline already reached this period of history, one can only wonder which timeline Assassin's Creed 3 will be, if there will ever be one. Also, as far as I see, this upcoming title could be the finale of all the lore the game presented to us so far. But, it's Ubisoft we're talking about, they could figure out a way to extend the story further
Anyway, can't wait for this one. I just hope it will still come out in PC.

Loving how they made Ezio age through AC2, Brotherhood and Revelations. He looks utterly badass with that greyish beard of his right now.
Brotherhood was an impressive improvement over AC2, so I'm looking forward to what they have in store for us.

Brotherhood, like the first AC, felt rather unpolished, so I'm really hoping that Revelations can do what AC2 did to its predecessor. |

Furthermore, rebuilding also helps unlock at least ONE of the Romulus Lairs, since you need to reactivate the aqueducts fueling the nearby area; that requires going through a certain sequence, as some regions of Rome cannot be unlocked all at once and you need to reach a certain level before you can take on that Lair...the ultimate goal of which is gaining the unbreakable armor of Brutus and the Dagger of Brutus (which has both over-lethal and deterrent qualities). Hey, even the thief side-missions (which most people wouldn't care about) provide you with at least ONE big benefit: the termination of the Cento Occhi ambushes. Quote:
- Allows you to meet Leonardo and gain the leap glove AND the poisoned dart thing...plus a third tool (can't remember which one). - Ultimately allows you to gain the parachute, which can be useful for certain missions (like the Coliseum race), traveling long distances or making your escape from higher grounds.

I cannot wait for Revelations! So many good games coming out this year, Deus Ex, Mass Effect 3, Battlefield 3, MW3 and now Revelations, my mind might just explode from a giant nerdgasm
Also the tower thing sounds interesting, having all out war with Templars to keep your towers, it would be good if you could co-ordinate your assassins more than just point and kill this. I hope the whole sending assassins on missions do more for the actual story/gameplay (such as unlocking new missions if your assassins succeed).

I don't really feel as though I accomplished much if all I get is a cape which has the same effects as a cape I could have gotten from collecting all the Borgia Flags, you know? Quote:

Anyways, I would do away with the synch conditions entirely because it would give the player much more freedom to do the mission as he pleases, and would have less missions where getting seen by guards causes the mission to restart (unless you get seen by the target, which would make sense). You had that in AC2 but Brotherhood really got anal about no detection imo and synch requirements (tho I do appreciate that it made the missions more challenging in a sense). |

I'm really looking forward to Revelations even though it's only been around a week since I started playing Brotherhood! I quite like Ezio's new look in the promo art I've seen and the trailer made me drool.... I can't wait to see some gameplay!

On that note, I'm going to continue on my quest to get ahold of AC II, cause if it has no synch requirements that would make me very happy.

I'm not saying that they should get rid of the synch requirements, but I think they should all be more specific than things like 'don't take damage'.
Some of them I actually enjoyed a lot, mind. They really did make some of the easier missions more of a challenge. |

I agree about the tank mission being ridiculous. It's the only mission left that I still haven't completely synchronized yet, and I was too bored playing it to actually try it again. At least if they have the checkpoint at the beginning of the tank run, it would be a lot easier.

This game needs to turn up the difficulty in the combat, maybe enemies being able to counter as well or letting the enemies break counters and make better combos and still attack you while you are countering enemies so you have to watch your timing.

I just saw the trailer and spazzed! That was so EPIC! Ezio, you badass, and whoa, Altair! I've only played 15% of Brotherhood and I think that trailer's convinced me that I really need to buy Revelations as soon as it's released. Can't wait for it!
