Assassin’s Creed® 2 is the follow-up to the title that became the fastest-selling new IP in video game history. The highly anticipated title features a new hero, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, a young Italian noble, and a new era, the Renaissance. Assassin’s Creed 2 retains the core gameplay experience that made the first opus a resounding success and features new experiences that will surprise and challenge players. Assassin’s Creed 2 is an epic story of family, vengeance and conspiracy set in the pristine, yet brutal, backdrop of a Renaissance Italy. Ezio befriends Leonardo da Vinci, takes on Florence’s most powerful families and ventures throughout the canals of Venice where he learns to become a master assassin. EZIO, A NEW ASSASSIN FOR A NEW ERA Ezio Auditore da Firenze is a young Italian noble who will learn the ways of the assassins after his family was betrayed and he looks to seek vengeance. He is a lady’s man, a free soul with panache yet has a very human side to his personality. Through him, you become a master assassin. RENAISSANCE ITALY Italy in the 15th century was less a country and more a collection of city-states where families with political and economic strength began to take leadership roles in cities like Florence and Venice. This journey through some of the most beautiful cities in the world takes place in a time in history where culture and art were born alongside some of the most chilling stories of corruption, greed and murder.

Deutsch:
AC 2 ist ein sehr gutes Spiel und verbessert eigentlich alle Aspekte seines Vorgängers. Es gibt mehr Städte und diese unterscheiden sich wirklich stark voneinander.
Die Story ist um einiges besser als die von AC 1, Ezio als Protagonist eine Figur in die man sich gut hineinversetzen kann und auch die Handlung in der Gegenwart viel besser.
Meiner Meinung nach sind aber vor allem die Verbesserungen der Spielmechaniken sehr gut gelungen. Es gibt zum Beispiel viel mehr verschiedene Waffen und Werkzeuge die einem helfen, auch sind die "Nebenbeschäftigungen" weitaus interessanter gestaltet.
Natürlich ist das Spiel grafisch nicht mit den aktuellen Titeln zu vergleichen, aber es sieht trotzdem für sein Alter sehr gut aus. Besonders die dichte Atmosphäre in den Städten lässt einen dies schnell vergessen.
Abschließend lässt sich nur sagen: dieses Spiel ist auch heute noch ein Muss für alle Fans von Assassins Creed, Schleich- und Actionspielen.

AC 2 is a very good game and actually improves on all aspects of its predecessor. There are more cities and they are very different from each other.
The story is much better than that of AC 1, Ezio as the protagonist is a character you can easily empathize with and the action in the modern day is also much better.
In my opinion, however, the improvements to the game mechanics are particularly well done. For example, there are many more different weapons and tools to help you, and the "side quests" are much more interesting.
Of course, the game cannot be compared graphically with the current titles, but it still looks very good for its age. The dense atmosphere in the cities in particular makes you quickly forget this.
In conclusion, all I can say is: this game is still a must for all fans of Assassin's Creed, stealth or action games.

Assassins Weed II was everything i wanted the sequel to be. It was more of everything, more in depth both in terms of gameplay mechanics and world design.
And much like Ubisoft itself, you can´t have nice things without some flaws.
Gameplay:
It´s parcour time again and this time, combat actually works much, MUCH better than in the first game. Aside from enemies having an HP bar, you now have some other skills that could make your day toto bene.
First of all, you can now grab enemies and throw them around. Like, off a roof or into another dude. You can also throw them to the ground and either stab them or give them a good hug of the beardwalk. With their teeth. Honestly, this game reminds me more and more of Yakuza the longer i play. Maybe the Omi Alliance was a branch of Abstergo industries after all...
However, since we´re still pretty early mechanics wise, there are some issues that needed attention. Counters and dodges work more reliably than in AC1, but only 75% of the time instead of 50%. Combat can be smooth if the game feels like it, but one frame off and you get combo-ed back into stone age.
Also, the enemies, especially in the late game can get rather frustrating. You cannot counter them, you cannot grab them, if you attack, they counter you and dodging also doesn´t help. What am i supposed to do? It feels like i´m fighting enemies from a future AC game where there are more mechanics to work around those issues.
Since i already compared the combat to Yakuza, some fights feel like Yakuza 3.
This isn´t good.
Parcour has been improved greatly. Everything works smoother and faster than before, but i still found Ezio often succumbing to his depression and rather jumping on the street rather than the platform 5 nanometers next to it. But since this series only got better in this aspect, i won´t complain.
Gameplay structure lacks severely. This game is long, and that would be okay if the developers wouldn´t try to squeeze game time out of the last act as if they were trying to squish water out of a brick of coal. One example: The game has some massive endgame vibes but then hits you with a roadblock saying you need to kill 9 dudes all over the city. Yeah... i almost skipped the game at this point. But damn, the last bossfight was so damn worth it.
Story:
See for yourself. It´s great but no summary i can come up with can do this game justice.
However, the final boss is the actual goddamn pope. And his last phase is basically a bar fight.

The MASTERPIECE and definetly the best part of the series.
my favourite game of all time. the interaction of the music and the game itself is amazing.
no other game creates an atmosphere like this.
GET IT!

Its pretty okay for an old game. Tho the only downside is that you might get very frustrated when trying to do parkour and running while trying to catch someone, kill someone thats running away, ram a thief, etc. Because ezio likes to not follow your inputs and likes to for example hang off a ledge when you're trying to jump to the next one (this auto-ledge-hang shouldnt be a feature as you could do this with intent with a different button). Some people might call it skill issue, but i want to propose that we find a middle ground between skillful player and very frustrated casual gamer. Because i only see people who loves this complex and percise parkour experience and very frustrated players that dont work under pressure and sometimes make small mistakes, but get punished so much for that mistake. No middle ground and i want a middle ground, bc it quite frankly is ruining my experience. (especially at the end of the story where you have to assasinate alot of people, but when you try, you get seen, even though you havent touched ground. Then the target proceeds to flee and 20 soldiers hack down on you and you just staggle, fall and be fucking pathetic as you withness the target run away). This is a rant and also me venting because it started off really fun, became a slight inconvenience, then an annoyance and now its straight up frustrating, especially if i have to go through it 9 times, because there are 9 fkin targets.
Still this game is worth a try and the ezio saga is something one has to experience as an ac fan. Story is for example better than that of odyssey.
