Assassin’s Creed 2 – Part 5-2
Somehow we've been roped into playing Carnival games in order to gain access to our next target, so we had better play to win. https://youtu.be/_6NTYsLvnWE Streamed at https://www.twitch.tv/newdarkcloud It's very amusing that Carnevale is the sequence that the initial E3 trailer was built on, because in retrospect it's...

It was one of the first things unveiled to us...

With the leader of Venice subject to an assassination plot (not ours), it's up to us to stop the Templars from taking control of the city. https://youtu.be/tMYx741fxiY Streamed at https://www.twitch.tv/newdarkcloud If you're going to involve Leonardo da'Vinci in your story set in the Italian Renaissance, you're almost contractually...
Assassin’s Creed 2 – Part 4-3
Although we have word of yet another big Templar conspiracy, we haven't done our court mandated Assassin's Tomb for this session yet. And that means it's Tomb Time! Nothing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nMHvfimrB8 Streamed at https://www.twitch.tv/newdarkcloud Though these tombs are all fun platforming sections, I don't have much more to add...

Assassin’s Creed 2 – Part 4-1
It didn't take us long to identify our next target in scenic Venezia, and acquire allies in our fight against him.

Looks like Desmond's visions are lasting for longer than 30 seconds. If this was a professional outfit, he might want to see a doctor about that. But I guess we'll just have to make it work. https://youtu.be/tE_JT18dO7c Streamed at https://www.twitch.tv/newdarkcloud I must admit, I like the scene where Altair...
Assassin’s Creed 2 – Part 3-3
Turns out the Leonardo Da'Vinci also just happens to be on his way to beautiful Venice.

With our little detour complete, it's time to eliminate the remaining leader of the Pazzi Conspiracy: Jacopo de'Pazzi. https://youtu.be/J-YqD1ZA5-Y Streamed at https://www.twitch.tv/newdarkcloud And nothing puts one in the place of late-2000s era game design like an old-fashioned tailing mission.
