foolm0ron 04/21/12 1:48:00 PM #9:	Play AC1 1/3rd of the way through, then drop it and go to AC2. AC1 does a great job of establishing the core idea of the series, the story, and the gameplay. But execution-wise it is VERY weak. But I think it's important to play the game to see how the series started, and to have something to compare AC2 to. 50% of my enjoyment of AC2 was being floored at how much better it was than AC1. You can't get that without playing AC1. -- _foolmo_ 'I love you so much' - SineNomine <cite>foolm0ron posted [p:1060787] in I've n...

Peace___Frog 04/21/12 3:46:00 PM #26:	I honestly had fun with AC1, I pulled an all-nighter to beat it cause I heard AC2 was so much better. Just don't worry about sidequests or anything and do everything you can to beat it ASAP. Like foolmo said, AC2 is even better after having played AC1. And even though getting to the ending scenes means playing through the game, I do think it's worth it. At the very least, play through the first 3 assassinations of AC1, then watch the endgame stuff on youtube. -- ~Peaf~ "Later that day, I f*ed a panda." - PSO <cite>Peace___Frog posted [p:1060804] in I've n...
