For players who are not very familiar with Assassin's Creed, the mythological trilogy "Assassin's Creed: Origin", "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" and "Assassin's Creed: Valhalla", but for countless Assassin, "Assassin's Creed 2" is the eternal masterpiece in their hearts. It is "Assassin's Creed 2" that pushes Assassin's Creed to the altar, showing players what "everything is empty and everything is allowed".
1. A must-read work for getting started with Assassin's Creed
If a new player wants to get into the Assassin's Creed series, I will definitely recommend him to play Assassin's Creed 2, because Assassin's Creed 2 can be said to be a milestone in the entire Assassin's Creed series. Assassin's Creed began to reach its peak from the second generation, and this work was also the first part of the Echio trilogy (the other two are the Brotherhood of Assassin's Creed and the Revelation of Assassin's Creed). This trilogy describes the life of an assassin master in full.
Assassin's Creed 2 should be the first time that Chinese players can experience the plot. The experience of the first generation is extremely poor due to its long-term age, PC optimization and no subtitles. But the second generation is different. This time, Ubisoft's optimization is even better, and the PC side has been specially optimized, making its overall experience better than the first generation. At the same time, the configuration required for Assassin's Creed 2 is not high, and computers can run easily now.
2. Carry the banner of Renaissance
The background of this "Assassin's Creed 2" is set in the Italian Renaissance in 1486, in Venice, Florence and Tuscany. The player is still the ancestor of Daisymond, whose ancestor is named Egio. Egio was born into a noble family, but soon he was involved in other people's conspiracy against his family, so he decided to seek revenge on the plotter.
In the 15th century Italy was not so much a country as a collection of city-states, when Italy, families with political and economic strength began to rule cities like Florence and Venice. This game journey takes place in the historical context of the emergence of culture and art accompanied by some of the most exciting stories of corruption, greed and murder, and it will go through some of the most beautiful cities in the world.
In the game, players can encounter some historical figures, including alliances or enemies. As the player's mentor, Leonardo da Vinci will play a very important role in the game. He will make some gadgets to help players. As someone who has been born and dies, players must use various means to protect themselves.
The protagonist's clothes represent the Renaissance Italian aristocratic family clothing style. Unlike "Assassin's Creed", players are not just as simple as mixing into the sacrificial team here. Leonardo da Vinci's large aircraft can help players get into places that are usually inaccessible. You will use it in some tasks.
Mission in EgioIn the middle, he will face the powerful Grimaldi family, which is equivalent to the predecessor of today's mafia. In addition to fighting against members of the Grimaldi family, we know that the Templars will be back. Carno Grimaldi, an important role in the enemy, is powerful in Venice. Obviously, this guy is protected by a lot, and his overconfidence in himself is also the reason for his failure.
3. The gameplay that is still impressive today
Climb, assassinate, fight. The three characteristics of Assassin's Creed have been improved to varying degrees. Let’s talk about climbing first. The eaves and wall walking similar to parkour account for a huge proportion in the game. If you want to start Hawkeye, you must climb to some high-rise buildings, which is also one of the fun of the game. Standing on the high ground and looking down at the town, I felt a sudden enlightenment. With climbing and various skills, approaching the enemy and assassinating them becomes one of the essences of the game. Incorporating the congregation of the previous work, the setting of the congregation protecting oneself can be integrated into the crowd or hired the crowd at will.
Because of the addition of various weapons in this work, there are many ways to kill enemies (it is possible to assassinate multiple enemies at the same time). The grasp of blocking and counterattacking timing in frontal combat is very important to save combat time, and the launch conditions are not too harsh, which doubles the fun of combat, but also makes frontal combat full of counterattacks.
Assassin's Creed 2 strives to bring players a richer gaming experience than the previous work. The new money system, bribery system, economic system and special Hawkeye perspective will allow you to take more interesting adventures in Assassin's Creed 2. Players can use money to distract enemies, purchase props, and hire people. The bribery system can allow some people in the city to do things for themselves obediently.
