Hey guys I'm back with part 2 of our review on Assassin's creed 3! So I am terribly sorry about this hiatus but I had some problems, holidays man. So Unity and Rogue, the next in the AC franchise has been out for almost a month, haven't played them but they look great so I'll be super hyped when I get 'em. Anyways back to the review.

So, we left off Ratonhnhakéton as he told Achilles, an old man who refused to train him, that he wont leave until he trains him. Damn that is one stubborn dude. That night however, two men who want Achilles dead, went over there plan in front of the stables. Sadly for them, Ratonhnhakéton was sleeping there. Ratonhnhakéton fought and killed all but 2, who Achilles later finished off. Achilles decides to train the young boy for his bravery. Even if we already had a tutorial on everything as Desmond and Haytham.

During his training, Ratonhnhakéton learned about the underground, harbor masters which can be used for fast travel, and the ever awful pain in the ass known as notoriety. And after completing sequence 5 and being close to half way through the game you FINALLY get that badass Assassin outfit. While sequence 5 is ending you think to yourself: "Finally I can kick ass in the Assassin outf-WTF?! A Desmond part?!" Yep you take control of Desmond for the first mission where he moves like an assassin since brotherhood. Basically this is where all of the players who started with 3, can learn that Desmond moves like an Assassin. And the final thing they do in this mission is open up Desmond's parachute. Since he jumped off a building.

So after climbing a freaking sky scraper, and parachuting off the building, you get to be Ratonhnhakéton again. Also I forgot to mention, his name is now Connor. So now I don't have to copy and paste his name over and over and over.

Connor is approached by an old friend, yes the same friend he taught to hunt. He explains that William Johnson plans on buying Connor's land. This made Connor pissed, so as a signal of war, he threw a tomahawk into a post in the homestead, before setting off to find Sam Adams in Boston. This is also the time where you get a tutorial on recruiting OP assassin recruits.

Connor makes it so William Johnson cant buy his peoples land, including participating in the Boston tea party. But he didn't kill him. And after returning he finds out Johnson can buy the land again. He used stealth to make his way up to Johnson in the frontier, and killed him, via stealthy air assassination.

With Johnson dead, Connor escaped and returned to the homestead. And focused on his next target, John Pitcairn. Connor made his way to Lexington, joining Paul revere in his ride to warn of the British.

(Froakie's in the back round shouted in unision) The British are coming! The British are coming!

? You know what I wont even ask. Connor also assists in fighting off the British, then travels to Philadelphia to assist General Putnam.

Putnam told Connor that Pitcairn was not in the fight yet. That they were being destroyed on both ends. Connor had an idea. He would destroy the guns on the ships that were attacking them. Thus flushing Pitcairn out of hiding. And he did just that, before riding back to bunker hill. The British were weaker than before. But there soldiers were a plenty. Connor decided to make his way to Pitcairn. Doing so by avoiding the British lines of fire. And he stealthily made his way to Pitcairn, and assassinated him.

Connor snatched a letter from Pitcairn and made his way back to Putnam. Putnam was surprised to see the Assassin alive. But the letter Connor had given him provided bad news.

(A Froakie appeared. Holding a Mic before saying in a British accent) I'm afraid I got some Bad News!

What's with the references? Anyways the letter revealed a plot. And the plot was to murder...GEORGE WASHINGTON. Well, talk about awkward. Connor returned home again. And during the next scene, Connor is visited by Benjamin Tallmadge. His father was an assassin. Benjamin and Connor ride for New York in an attempt to find and kill Thomas Hickey. So with a pain in the ass tailing mission, you are now to chase after hickey, who realizes you are an assassin. After catching him, Connor and Hickey are arrested for counterfeit.

Connor is held in a cell next to hickey until Charles lee and Haytham move Hickey to better accomidations. He would not be freed since he is in the plot for Washingtons assassination. Connor gets himself locked into the pit, which was a part of a plot devised by Mason Weems. Connor stole the wardens key and placed a fake on him, snuck up to hickeys cell, and attempted to choke him. Only problem here is...it was the warden. Charles realizes Connor is the same boy from the woods, and knocks him out. Connor is then brought to a hanging, as he is conspired in the plot for Washingtons murder, Connor however escapes at the last second with some help from the old man. He takes a tomahawk and murders Hickey.

Now don't get excited, because Mr. Miles is back again! This time instead of parkour, your main focus is stealth. The Second thing an assassin must be able to do. Desmond has to make his way across a MMA arena, to the next power source that keeps the temple running. Doing so while being a wanted man, someone else steals the power source. Was it Daniel Cross who did that? I don't know. So after Chasing the guy, Desmond knocks out him and the guards, then makes his escape.

Connor time! Connor is halfway complete with his quest to kill the Templars. His next target, Benjamin Church. Is it me or was Benjamin a common name during colonial times?

My stupid questions aside Connor meets with Washington to discuss there course of action. Good ol' Georgey discovers missing supplies for his troops. Believing church to be involved, Connor leaves to investigate. He followed a trail to (ironically) a church. Finding nothing inside other than his father-oh yeah he found Haythem. Haythem explains that Church betrayed the Templar order, and he wishes to find him. The two tail a carriage wagon to a camp. Connor and haytham fight off Church's men and then set off for New York. Haytham and Connor (now disguised as a mercenary) enter Church's facility to apprehend him. Only to be ambushed and left to burn in the building. They make there escape and now they must chase the scallywag Church via Aquila.

(Froakie's look at him confusingly)

What? I didn't mention Connor's ship? So...yeah the native assassin is also a captain. His ship is called the Aquilla. So Connor sinks Church's little fleet and board his ship. As to where Haytham beats the sh*t out of Benjamin and Connor ends it. They then return the supplies and Connor returns to the manor.

The man now talks to his mentor about a truce of sorts with the Templars-or what remains of them. Achilles tells him that the Templars must die, including Haytham. Now, here is where sh*t get's interesting. Connor and Haytham return to Washington's camp, where Haytham discovers a letter ordering an attack...on Connor's village?!

Washington tells how some natives are rumored to be allying with redcoats. And Haytham reveals that Washington was the man who led the attack on Connor's village 14 years ago. Man who couldn't tell a lie hmmmm? *Cough cough* Bullsh*t *Cough cough* BUT! By revealing this, Haytham reveals that he with-held this information for his own benefit. Wow, Haytham really threw his sh*t into the fan. Any who. Connor, enraged at both men rides to stop the attack. He killed the blue-coats and arrived at his village. The clan mother tells Connor that villagers and Kanen'tó:kon, his friend from before, had joined Charles Lee and the red coats to an attack on the blue coats. Connor knew this was wrong, he incapacitated the villagers and found Kanen'tó:kon. Kanen'tó:kon believed that Connor was brain washed, and that he would see the village burned. He attacked Connor in instantly and the Assassin had no choice but to kill him.

Connor was now more pissed than me boarding ships in AC4. So glitchy. Anyways Connor is asked yet again for assistance by George Washington. Ballsy move George. Connor now must fend off the lobsters while the troops escape. After they escape Connor tells Washington of Lee's traitorous actions, and that if George doesn't kill Lee, Connor will take things into his own hands.

Skip ahead some time later. Achilles now an old man on his death bed, tells Connor that both remaining Templars must die. The native now enlists the help of the French to assault fort George. But to do this, he must first help them in the battle of Yorktown. Connor assists in sinking several ships, before a man of war destroys the Aquillas cannons. Thus forcing Connor to ram the ship, and board it himself. He took down the Captains and then shot the powder kegs. With the ship about to sink, Connor runs through and leaps back to the deck of his ship.

He returns to the homestead for his final homestead missions. But I won't tell you guys cause spoilers.

Now with the assistance of the French fleet, Connor navigates his way through fort George and lights the signal fire for the attack. Wait hold up.

(Greninja frowns.)

Why would you need to attack fort George if you could sneak your way through it? I-I don't get it...someone explain it to me?

(A Froakie whispers to Greninja before running off Camera.)

Ohhhhh. It's just for history? Better hope that is in the history books or I'm going to look stupid.

So um where were we? Oh yeah, so the attack has started. Connor leaps off the tower before being damaged by a cannonball. He's forced to find his way to Lee without attracting the attention of the guards.

After the hard trials Connor finds his father instead of Lee, he is forced to take action and fight his father. They fought and fought. Boy vs Man, Son vs Father, Connor vs Haytham, Assassin vs Templar. The battle was a great one...before a Cannonball comes into the picture. Haytham then begins to Choke the assassin. Connor had no choice then, he killed his father.

Desmond awoke from the animus, a third power source located. William however, offered to get it. The artifact would mean nothing without the key to the temple.

Back again to Connor, who has gone through so much. He realized now that they may continue to struggle. The assassins and Templars may war for another thousand years. This is a road he may not always want to travel down. He may not even live to see it's end. But he will travel down it nonetheless, he will kill Charles Lee.

Haytham Kenways funeral, Charles Lee performed the ceremony. Connor saw this his chance, he attempted to end this. But he was caught and Lee escaped. Connor found his way to the ship were Lee should have been. But where his men would be, that worked too. He traveled to Boston, found Lee at the harbor and chased him through a burning ship. I hated this memory cause I never knew where to go...I failed so hard. Charles and Connor fall through the deck, the assassin now injured, shot the Templar as he made his escape.

Now for time sake I'll wrap this up for you guys. Connor finds lee at an inn at the frontier. Kills him, takes the key, and buries it where only Desmond will find it. Desmond himself is forced to break into the place he was once held captive, and rescue his father. Vidic, the lead psycho scientist, demanded for the Apple Desmond held. Careful what you wish for Doc, this son of a b*tch killed Cross and will kill you. SPOILERS, Desmond uses the Apple to make security kill vidic then made them commit suicide. Father and Son escaped and said son digs up the key. He unlocks the temple and...Ok guys that's it for the story. I won't tell you what happens cause that is a total d*ck move.

Final Verdict:

Ac3 is a very nice installment in the franchise. Many people say that this is one of the worst games however because of its glitches and story. Me however. I think that it has a great story. And they say Connor is dull. Would you be after your mother burns alive, you are obligated to help save his village, you are forced to kill your father. And best friend. And other sad things happen that I won't spoil? I would. And the glitches, I didn't come across most of them. The only thing I hated was that none of the died clothes appeared in cut scenes because of anvil problems. Besides its not as bad as a certain pirate assassin's creed game. And considering the gameplay and story. With naval combat and a supposedly great multiplayer which I can't play because of no xbox live gold, I rate this game a solid: 8.5/10. I highly recommend it to all AC fans and even new fans to the series. Until next time guys when I review...Skate 3.
