It's clear from this listicle that the length of Assassin's Creed games has extended. The following completion estimates are based on the main story lengths from. RELATED: Assassin's Creed: The Highest Viewpoints In The Series Assassin's Creed is indeed a phenomenal franchise, and we are eagerly waiting for the next installment. Assassin's Creed is not one of those, despite being a series consisting of over ten games. In that respect, Bloodlines feels like it%26rsquo s lost in a limbo between the original Assassin%26rsquo s Creed and God of War %26ndash a good thing if you%26rsquo re into those titles, but it executes expertly in neither regard.Often, video game franchises outlive their expiry and span for several games longer than they should. The battles are competent, if a little simplistic in setup, but it felt good clobbering fatties with chain whips and countering the lofty sword-swing of an armored brute. Brain-dead baddies won%26rsquo t do much in the way of slicing and dicing, but the boss battles, which take the place of set-piece assassination objectives, are decently difficult %26ndash our fight against a speedy, grab-happy boss called The Witch took a couple tries, which we didn%26rsquo t expect. The combat is full of brilliantly-animated flourishes and violent counterattacks that are easy and satisfying to execute. That means the horrendously repetitive structure that everyone justifiably criticized is back, and you%26rsquo re going to follow dudes around a lot before getting to the good stuff, and even then, the stealth assassinations have been gutted in favor of full-blown boss battles.ĭon%26rsquo t get us wrong %26ndash the action in Assassin%26rsquo s Creed: Bloodlines, as well as the straightforward and fast-paced platforming, is as slick and enjoyable as it was in 2007, though the loading screens sprinkled throughout the cities kick the game%26rsquo s flow in the %26lsquo nads. A portable excursion across Cyprus, an unexplored area where the last of those douchebag Templars are hiding, Bloodlines sticks to the series%26rsquo roots and adopts more from the first game. The big thing to realize is that this game ignores most of the advances made in the stellar full-sized sequel, Assassin%26rsquo s Creed II.
