Not as good as brotherhood..

I give this game a 8. Everything they kept from brotherhood was great but there really wasn't much new stuff besides bombs, the hookblade, and the occasional zipline. Everything was accessible shortly after getting to main map. Lack of puzzles and the ever annoying collect 100 fragments thing which could be anywhere. (10 throughout the story is reasonable for a main piece of character development) I didn't feel the den defense was that bad rather easy after the 3rd one. Bombs were mostly useless especially the tripwires. The smoke bomb which wasn't anything new. Stickies were hard to get but probably the most fun. Nothing to great about the weapons unless you do the unlocks. No special armors to get that i saw besides unlocks. The gameplay felt the same throughout its entirety. No new "assassin specialty moves" (like arrow storm which was as high as it went far as i found even though you get like 12 assassins) bummed me out. I did like the den defense 3rd was very challenging.
LOTS of bugs had to redo some missions cause of them sometimes. Few collision detection bugs mostly enemy a.i. bugs where they didn't drop agro. All in all game play was semi stale graphics are gorgeous story line was decent but not very in depth like its predecessors. No "whoa's" in the storyline.
