June 2025
Due to recent DRM changes, the game is unplayable now. It won't start up the story mode -- Steam itself no longer gives you the CD Key to try and register it on Ubisoft Connect, mind you. If you do buy this game, you'll waste your money, be stuck with the "Game.Startup.AwaitingFirstOsiConnection" bug and be stuck with an unplayable game in your library, since ubisoft itself said there are no plans to update the title and fix it. Ironically, only those who legally acquired the game are forbidden from playing on Steam. If you download a cracked version, it works with no problems whatsoever. What a joke. Update 22/06/2025 - The DRM issue has been resolved, but I'll still keep my original complaint as a reminder if it happens again. It's why Assassin's Creed II took a plunge on recent reviews on june 2025, too. IF there are no problems in the future, this is easily one of the greatest games you can play. As much as there's some lore you would be missing if you didn't start with Assassin's Creed I (which to this day has no subtitles, I believe?), this game is a huge upgrade from the previous title and presents arguably the favorite assassin of the fanbase, Ezio Auditore. Get comfortable with Ezio, because you're going to know his live very well through this game, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Assassin's Creed Revelations, which a lot of old fans (and myself included) argue is the best trillogy in the series to this day.

March 2025
A Masterpiece That Defined a Generation Assassin’s Creed II is a defining moment in gaming history. Words cannot express how much this game means to me. It shaped my identity as a gamer, and to this day, I am endlessly grateful for what it gave me. From the very first moments, AC II grabs you and never lets go. The opening sequence is one of the greatest in gaming history, an introduction so powerful, so emotional, it sends chills down your spine. You climb a church tower with your brother on a beautiful night, and then... the music swells, the title appears on screen, and in that instant, you realize: this is something special. It’s a moment that stays with you forever. Ezio Auditore’s journey is legendary, a tale of vengeance, growth, and destiny that stays with you long after the credits roll. Jesper Kyd’s soundtrack? Pure magic. Every note, every theme seeps into your soul, elevating every moment into something unforgettable. This game didn’t just redefine a franchise—it left its mark on the entire gaming industry. And yet, looking at where the series has gone, it breaks my heart. What once was a deeply personal, emotional, and revolutionary experience has lost its identity over the years. But no matter what came after, Assassin’s Creed II remains untouched—a masterpiece, an unforgettable adventure, and a game that will forever hold a special place in my heart.

I haven't played this game for 30 hours. I have been playing this game since I was 10 years old, I am 20 now. And this is by far my favourite game of all time. No words can explain how good this game is in my eyes. From the atmosphere, the soundtrack, the oil painting-esqe graphics, the architecture of the cities, to the gameplay, the parkour system that fits perfectly the cities that were designed FOR it, the simple yet effective stealth and so on and so on. I will admit - it hasn't aged perfectly. The optimisation of this game is awful, no matter how tough a PC you have you'd still stutter, and have no more than 60fps but it's fine because you can experience an easy-to-pick-up but hard-to-master game. There is so much to find and to love about this game and I would argue to the death about this one being the best in the series. Cannot recommend enough.
