To think that this is only the reveal trailer and not the no doubt three minute or so long CG trailer that will probably come out a month or two before the game's release!
I agree. The bomb mechanic felt really unneeded, not to mention the tower defense element. I just thought they really had a B team working on the plot, the story itself was cool, but it handled so unbelievably poorly. You go to a beach and subject 16 is just sitting there, no intrigue, no grand explanation, hes just like "hi, im a little crazy". Though my largest complaint from what they did to desmond's face and to a smaller extent, ezio's.
Agree with both points, the story had the groundwork for more intrigue but they didn't expand enough on any of the points. 16, Sofia, and the Prince had great framework but just didn't pan out to be grand enough. Not sure what you mean about there faces though, what did they do to them? I've played all the ACs it just must be slipping my mind.
[link] thats a pretty good image showing the new face. suddenly desmond looks much older. They also changed ezio's eye color in revelations, and his eyes almost seem to glow to boot.
Ah I see what you mean, also as for the eye color I did notice that because if I recall so did Altair's eyes. I think it was linked to the use of the golden apple, causing there eyes to change color. This was never stated but how else does someone get piercing golden eyes, its just unnatural.
Wait... now my people are the bad guys. Again. fuck.
