Not really boring but pretty easy the easiest game of the series.

@Pullus,

I only have 25 respects left to give. Here, you take these...

*gives 25 respects to Pullus*

Now, D21Lewis, Give me 25 respects...

*Takes 25 respects from D21Lewis*

Now, you both have 25 respects each. And I have 25 respects. Here, I'll give each of you 12 respects.

*Gives 12 respects to both of you*

Now, I have one respect left. For this one, you're going to have to prove you're worthy. I guess I'll give it to Pullus since he actually played every Hitman game...unless D21 can sway my stance. Can you?

I watched the Hitman movie.....not all of it, though.  I saw the ending.

I'll leave now.  :(

Brotherhood is the best one. You have to remember to be creative. Climb stuff, jump on stuff, enjoy yourself!

According to me brotherhood is the exact copy of AC II, with the story being absolutely worse and there are some minor gameplay improvements, something I would have expected from an expansion pack. Worse voice acting too.

I was pretty disappointed with it.

 

To OP: What I did like about AC II was it's story, and using my hidden blade to kill my targets. Also trying not to get into conflicts and such. Hiring groups to distract your enemies and stuff.

I don't know what you're talking about! Brotherhood's story was more interesting to me, plus it had more sci-fi :O

Weird. I can point out a million stuff wrong with brotherhood's story, but I don't want to spoil it. One eg is that ezio basically loses someone early on, and the entire game is basically a revenge quest, it worked well for AC II, but got boring in brotherhood.

And brotherhood's ending dragged on for no reason.

Platforming in AC II was actually good in some ways, like climbing some view points required you to use the uber jump , nothing like that in brotherhood.

Brotherhood felt like filler material, none of the epic assassinations like in AC II, the dead don't talk much, except for the final boss.

AC II feather collection : It had a very good reason, and after you collect you were awarded with something really cool.

The feather collection in brotherhood was just dumb downed and felt unnecessary.

Not a single new interesting character in brotherhood. Except for the antagonist.

Not all the points are story-related of course.
