Assasins Creed 2 - Opinion after playing for 10 minutes
Assasins creed after 10 minutes doesn't get you that far into the game. Aside from a couple of errands to run, and a fight or two, the story itself doesn't progress past the tutorial stages.
The beginning starts off at the ending of the previous game, getting you to follow your "friend" in the laboratories and sending you through a couple unskippable cut scenes that give you a starting point for your story. The main decisions and triggers that happen through this scene are set up in a basic point A to point B system, with some avoiding to be done (much like Pacman...but without the dots)
After going through the present you are left inside a room, with almost no direction that you are pulled to, other than a large chair and the 3 people you have encountered in the cut scenes. If you chose any one of the characters, the game triggers a short cut scene to add a bit of a back story to the characters you speak to. In the end though, the only option to progress the story further is to sit in the chair.
Once in the chair you end up as another character, with a small cut scene again (this happens a lot) and you are presented with your first real situation where you have to fight a bunch of enemies. of course it gave you the instructions of how to fight and get through the situation, but you are left on your own until you finish the scene. After this was done there was one last thing to be done and that was a escape situation where you are running from your enemies. This situation presented many options and choices of where to go and how to get to your ultimate destination, by giving you the freedom to choose.
After this the 10 minutes was up, and I thoroughly enjoyed them.
