In Defence of the DLC Sequences from Assassin's Creed 2

Yeah, I like sequences 12 and 13 from AC2.

[@mrhunter2154]

I liked the dlcs personally and without them the game felt too short so I’m not complaining

[@kono_dioda87]

7:42 Never noticed the second *”the”* and now I can’t unsee it…

[@nokiiio]

I recently played AC2 (Ezio collection ) for the first time and honestly I didn’t mind it. Especially returning to Florence and that speech Ezio gives at the end…chills. It’s good to see someone else feel the same way I did when I played after watching soo many videos that absolutely trash it and say it’s unnecessary

[@arturoggt6074]

I just finished playing AC 2 for the first time and i thought these were just part of the main game, didnt know they were the DLCs. I liked them, they might just make the game a bit longer than expected, but i found them fun to play.

[@danilostanco1709]

I think that in reality the Florence sequence has some of the best lines in the game, the dialogues with the victims are more intense than the one during the main plot, it reminds me more of Ac1, or I was impressed by a dialogue between two women, they were saying something like "I would like the Assassin to return" "They are all tales!!" "No. My father saw it once, at San Gimignano, long time ago" and it's just crazy that you realize that someone in the crowd see you while killing some target in the First Sequences of the game, put you in terms with the time passing by.

[@vicecityrocks1]

I never knew the AC1 connection that’s really cool

[@RaulitoTheAssassin]

I love sequences 13 because i really feel like and assassin true and true . Only killing targets and thats its . It interesting what you said about the 9 targets being an homage to ac1 9 target because wend i kill thoes 9 ppl in ac2 i wear the altair outfit😂

[@LionofDawn]

I haven't heard anyoen talk about how it breaks pacing or anything like that. And at least this DLC was planned in the first place but they didn't have enough time to finish it. It was always planned to be part of the main game.

[@tentayeprimo6674]

Wait people thought the dlc was bad? It's more story related gameplay before you finish the game, why is more AC2 bad?

[@chillyman7340]

Ezio is one of the best video game characters ever, he is the only complete Character that you actually get to see grow, even with Altair, so much of his life was skipped over and his story could have been more fleshed out which would have been cool because Altair himself is still quite a mystery, Ezio's story was Fleshed out across 5 games and this is why Ezio pretty much is the standard of Assassins Creed now.

[@mapmoop451]

i know its technically heresy but eivor also feels very complete as a character, maybe its because of how long the game is, or maybe its the (even people who dislike this game say this) admittedly really good writing

[@chillyman7340]

@@mapmoop451 I would say that, one game is not enough to create an iconic character, a cool character sure, but on the same level as Ezio, it's not going to happen in just one videogame. The Assassins Creed community like Altair but they LOVE Ezio, does AC still have cool protagonists? yes they do but not iconic unfortunately. The AC community seems to only be warming up to Conner Kenway now after all these years because of the different direction that AC went in.

[@hb-robo]

@@chillyman7340this doesn’t make any sense, Valhalla is longer than all of 2, Brotherhood and Revelations combined and it’s not even close.

[@trueredpanda1538]

I played through AC2 so many times throughout the years. When I did play ezio collection and did these missions. I thought it was wierd I had 0 recolection of these missions. Didn't care, had fun with them, learned later they were DLC's so I don't really mind. I thought they were fun. Except the mission on the boat, that one anoyed me. 😅

[@MasonPayneJericho]

I love AC2, but Ezio's thirties were definitely rushed and almost none-existent. If Ubi ever remake AC2, they definitely need to make Reneissance Italy fully explorable without loading screens (like the RPG Games) and make more story chapters/sequences, including Ezio's Spain years.

[@jameswolf3302]

The only dlc mission i didn't like was the forced stealth on the boat.

[@emblbret]

Played them that many times now,they're quite easy. But I hated them the first few times.

[@loukianosproto]

It's pretty annoying but at at least forces you to git good

[@emblbret]

Still wish they weren't included. It really slows down the pace,the only redeeming feature is the speech. Like I say it doesn't take to long now but I'd still rather skip them. ​@@loukianosproto

Did you just use red background for red texts on your thumbnail...?

[@8bitnation419]

AC2 has DLC?

[@irishwolfoflinkuei]

i never knew A.C. 2 had dlc.... is it included in the ezzio collection?

[@marcoshabitzreuterjunior8019]

Yes, it is.

[@irishwolfoflinkuei]

@@marcoshabitzreuterjunior8019 WOOHOO

[@7hgogx448]

nice video

[@aCatSiki]

Nice but fix the thumbnail for a better CTR

[@astronot1578]

Really enjoyed the video. The thumbnail is awful due to the red of the background washing out "Creed"

[@chillyman7340]

That's such an easy fix all it just needs is a simple drop shadow and it will make his thumbnails pop.

[@MataNui.]

My problem with the DLC that it's pointless, you legit gain nothing from playing them.
