When i play AC games when i do an mission i want to really be an assassin. So i be stealthy and i try to sneak up onto my target and hidden blade him at the right moment and get it right. That is challenging and takes some trail and error. Since in the last games there was no restart or check point when i failed to achieve my desired assassination instead of taking down the target in an boring counter attack fight. I just run to some guards and stand there until dead and restart. 

Now with ACB they have the restart but they are too distant so when i screw up and need to go back to an checkpoint i run over to guard and get kiled. But here is my big problem 

You cant die to one guard. Thats right you can not die to one guard attacking you no stop. The health regen keeps reviving your last health point. So i got into an situation where i fell off an building the big dome one onto some hay. I was like F i better restart as i am not doing all that running around and climbing again. but i was alive so i ran and found a guard. like above couldn't kill me so i killed him and found some stairs and an rather big fall.I jump off that height and i am on lowest health so i run back up but by that time my first health bar is full and it doesn't work. So i could either restart, find an higher point to kill my self or quickly run around and find a group of guards. So i found 3 more. Yet they couldn't kill me no matter how much i tried. By then i was on the brink of giving up and restarting when another group with an big guy arrive and killed me. 

 But that is me trying to kill myself.They account for 85% , 10% is falling and 5% is failing an mission. Other than that, i never die in an Fight ever. Really whats the point of being stealthy and sneaking around when its just as easy charging full speed into an huge amount of guards race towards the target and kill him before finishing off the rest in counter attacks. 

Only if there was an very very hard mode.because i would choose that.Because its just too easy. And even if there was difficulty the thick AI wouldn't of made it harder either. 

AC need to be Harder and discourage the fights so your should avoid them and be more like an Assassin and stealth focused. 

Well I expected a different type of thread. I thought you mistyped ABC meaning you thought that the alphabet was to easy for kids or something.

I haven;t played the game. From what I heard though, you sentiments have been echoed in a few reviews and gamers. 

You died in AC2 ? that game is incredibly easy, and what you said here is true, then that means AC B is also even easier =[

now i think i'm going to pass on this game, the reason it gets boring because its far too easy , even though the core gameplay is fun, which there was a hard mode.

Yeah, I liked AC2 but it felt, I don't know, like it would never really start or something.

I'm really enjoying AC:B atm. I think that (so far) anyways that it has the best story in the AC games. However the framerate drops are driving me NUTS. It was never this bad in AC1 or 2.

Cheers for the info man, think i'm definitely going to pass on this game now for awhile. At least untill its really cheap.

i have not played this game, and probably never will. however playing the first game using this method

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/930278-assassins-creed/45635227

makes the game more challenging, and more fun. i know its not Brotherhood, but if you're looking for something more assassiny and stealthy, i would really recommend that.

Exactly the main reason Ass Creed was never that great. Boring, easy combat. Since Brotherhood seems like a an old man telling you the same boring story over and over, I will move on. Thanx.

Well I actually am on the oppossite side of you guys. I think Assassin's Creed is one of the best new IPs of this gen. I'm not going to lie, the game does have repeitive missions, but show me a game that doesn't get repetitive.

Assassin's Creed is starting to become a gem with its story. It is getting better and better every game. So far AC: B is becoming an Uncharted.

So...even easier than 2? 

I thought that was impossible, and I'm a MASSIVE AC fan!
