Assassin’s Creed 2’s opening chapter hailed one of the best in gaming
Assassin’s Creed 2’s first chapter is acclaimed as the best in gaming by series fans.
Originally released for Windows PC, PlayStation 3, and Microsoft Xbox360 in 2009, Assassin’s Creed 2 corrected many gameplay kinks from the 2007 original game but was a nearly perfect sequel in every aspect.
You could also level up the Villa Auditore, your own homestead. It also had a brand new character in Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who was oozing charisma and charm. Fans consider Ezio’s trilogy as the pinnacle of the Ubisoft franchise.
Assassin’s Creed Assassin’s Creed II certainly was a gift for fans, and what could be a better gift than Ezio’s mother delivering him during the first moments of the sequel? Fans may think this is because Ezio was popped by his mother, but that could be incorrect.
We were quickly taken to the modern-day protagonist Desmond Miles who wakes up from the Animus and flees those annoying Templars in the Abstergo HQ.
Desmond returns to his normal self at the first opportunity and soon we find ourselves in ancient Italy, more specifically, Repubblica Florentina, 1476. Here, we meet Ezio and Federico, Ezio’s brother. We begin an unforgettable journey as we meet the upcoming most famous Brotherhood of Assassins member, Federico.
Reddit users have discussed what Assassin’s Creed 2 represents to them. What a great game. Ezio’s story is one of the best I’ve seen, Revelations still hold a special place in my heart,” said OrganizationLast4313. National-Exam-8224 replied: “Might just be my favorite gaming trilogy.”
DMS_David agreed that it was “definitely one of the most impressive openings for any game. I felt like AC2 gets a lot of goodwill from its beautifully-crafted world and story opening beats, and really captured how bittersweet the game will be.” Now that I think about it, a lot of AC titles have good openings or at least dramatic moments before the title. But AC2 really set the bar.”
Corby_Tender23, a nostalgic Corby_Tender, said: “Started the game again just the other day. That whole opening sequence made me (as always) say that it is one of the greatest games ever. It’s still the best AC.
A compelling storyline and a cast of interesting characters are only two of many components that go into making a video game. The soundtrack is also a vital component. Assassin’s Creed 2 is arguably one of the series’ best-sounding games.
The 2ap_guy said: “Don’t forget the music of Jesper Kyd that elevated this scene!” National-Exam-842 replied: “The music in AC2 was incredible.”
You can play the Ezio Trilogy on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. This collection of remasters looks and performs even better on the Xbox Series, and PlayStation 5.
While fans claim that Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey was a fantastic RPG it is reportedly the worst AC title.
