A revisit after being underwhelmed by this at release.

With fresh eyes, and lowered expectations, it’s such a good one of these. There are a lot of systems but they link together nicely and do satisfy.

Ezio the landlord buying up Rome is still weird but the curated content is very good. The city is excellent and it encourages you to really invest in it.

I think it lacks the soul of 2, it certainly lacks the narrative. It is more proficient but it is less loveable.
