haha i knew it would be taken that way, but I'm serious. as long as you don't let yourself get surrounded by 100 people, even tough enemies are pretty easy.


i think all but one enemy so far i have just been able to spam the circle button and do the combo slashy thing over and over

Once I leveled up a bit I was fine. The only problems I have is if someone sounds the alarm in the garrisons.

Snitches get stitches.

Or an arrow to the back of the skull

I was gonna say arrow to the knee, but you really have to hit their foot to pin them in place

Plus I usually go for the kill shot anyways

How much story is left after you unlock branding?

There are 20 main story missions. I think you get the branding abiility about halfway through, but I'm not sure.

Theres a way to look at your progress through the various objectives (weapons legends, artifacts, outcast missions, etc) in the menu somewhere

I'm 13 out of 20. I just wasn't sure how long the last missions are.

Pace yourself and do side missions in between. You'll blow right through them.

I've actually done a lot of side missions. I would probably be done if I hadn't. I'm trying to push through he main story now though since I've pretty much ignored it.

I found all the collectibles, and you don't unlock shite for doing it except some achievements/trophies

At least you get some xp for it. I hate games that put that shite in there for no reason at all like AC does.

AC gives a cutscenes, cosmetic upgrade, weapon upgrade, etc for completing collectibles. You don't get squat in this game, an elvish poem as a reward for collecting the signs

Those animus fragments in the last game gave nothing. Like I said at least this gives you xp for finding stuff.

Just finished and was a bit underwhelmed. Could have at least gave one epic battle instead of a couple skirmishes and button mashing.

I haven't finished the game, but overall I find the story to be extremely weak so far

Story could use some help, yes. I think they hit a home run with the game play though. Running around killing didn't get old like AC did. They have a jumping off point for a much deeper one. The nemesis system is nice touch that has potential.
