Assasin's Creed III

What's wrong with the counter system? It's no longer a one-button-press kill so I actually like it. You have to use different moves on different enemies and can't just counter-kill everyone on the screen and actually adds some challenge.

Oh and if anyone is having trouble with the guys who block your attacks, just press the "break guard" button twice and it will put them on the ground. For the guys who block even that button you just have to block their attacks with the counter button and then press counter again to throw them off balance before the others will work.

Combat actually feels challenging in this game. In all the other AC's it was piss easy, infact my largest cause of dying in the oter AC's are falling to my death because of wrong inputs. In AC3 though, combat actually seems worthwile and at the same time, something you may want to sometime avoid rather than being a breeze because HERP MEDICINE.

Yeah but just like the older games counter still does not do much against skilled enemies. And I get bored in the fights just holding down b. Absolutely no reaction time needed anymore because it slows down everything. I think it is the opposite now. Now it is not a challenge for me. Half the time I can just run up a wall and reverse jump to air assassinate the guards.

It took me 9 hours to beat main story. Not all extras.

Oh and no more sprint? Now it is just normal run fast. Then again there is no point in sprinting anymore because running from enemies to escape is dumb now haha.

I love AC to death but gameplay wise this is my least favorite. As I said earlier though, the story is fantastic.
