Also your views on cults and what constitute a cult is something that christinainty itself is. as it is an off shute of judaism. Again i hope for any future AC reviews you take into consideration the facts available and the use this instead of ideas ( such aas advanced civilizations before the flood) that can not be proven by either archaeological or other means.
on the whole your reviews include this one are fairly well done, But in the future mayby steer away from induling points that have been shown to be wrong such as the satan worship which in fact was only found out about under torture. Also you points are based off a belief that the church can do not wrong when in actuallity the templars were christian folk that eventually gained to much power that the church didnt like and so made up the false alligations to justify there actions
I said my beef with the game, but I score games based on all the stuff it has to offer bad & good. In the long run AC2 had more good things then bad, so I scored it based on that. Also it improved upon the combat & gameplay of the original as well.
I don't care how good the controls, graphics, and music is I can't put my religious views aside this game is Antichrist and I can't except that. Kwing you are a good man for announcing this now I can convince my brother not to get this. I know you probably don't care about what I'm saying by honestly I'm a Christian and any Christian shouldn't put his religious views aside just because a game has good sound or graphics.
Dont hate but i dont really follow a religon but i believe that parts of the religon type ac goes at can be true. i dont think one religon is the real religon where all others are a lie. So I can believe their religion can be mostly true
But still im fine if you dont like it i acually enjoyed you "rageing" at it a few times.
Speaking of opinions what do you think of Brotherhood? I loved it too but better than AC2? I dunno i love them both even though they are both diffrent in many ways.
PS: what do Kwife think of the Assassins Creed series?
Like i said i dont mind Ubisoft making their own verison of religion i acually like it since i think it makes an intresting story.
And all the other things you mentioned in the bad part i didnt really mind them ether.
But still your discussion everything was intresting but i think you went a bit to far for criticiing it like that. I dont think they were criticizing religion like i said its a game.
Criticizing religion would be if someone did it on brought it up on other Media.
I dont mind the whole making their own verison of religion thingy cause it a game and everyone knows that it isnt reality and it isnt supposed to be. Its not an insults its kind of like a parody or fan something. I havent played the first one yet but im fine if the story, plot and stuff changed that much cause werent there more than about 400 years between the two games. Lots of things could happen in just a few years you know. Like i said i dont mind Ubi . (ARGH how i hate the comment limit!)
no I don't do PS3 anymore. I tried for 2 yrs, its just to time consuming. I focus on 3DS,Retro and Wii at this point. I talked with Ubisoft devs during development of Brother Hood, I was planning on doing it, but I didn't pick this game up. I will be doing something on AC for Wii U.
great review but i think you went a bit overkill on the religion side of things. I was a little annoyed at the prostitute nun but apart from that it was fine. The adam and eve alien civilisation thing was just something the creators came up with for their game and that's all this is, a game. It doesn't mean they believe that it was true and it is the same with minerva saying religion is false. This is an alternate world and Ubisoft can do whatever they like with it. Great review though.
But even though I am Catholic, I didn't find this game to nearly as anti-christian as you. The whole nun/prostitute thing really ticked me off, but the corrupt nature of Rodrigo Borgia is actually historically accurate!! He is known to be the most corrupt pope EVER. When Minerva warns Ezio of the 'men bearing the cross," couldn't she be referring to Templars as they bore the Iron Cross? I didn't think she meant Christians.
i respect anyone who can make a 40 minute review....but this guy needs to chill out on part 3. this game is science fiction. its not supposed to cater to christians, catholics, or anyone else. THIS IS NOT SCHOOL OR REAL LIFE, this is a damn video game. i respect ubisoft for having a story that actually takes an ounce of intelligence to appreciate. they could have just made this series like gta ancient times, but they did more than that.
@SpecterM91 That was just a really stupid response. It was simply his views on the issues and fiction the game was pushing on player through its story. You're ok with a game telling you that a specific religion is wrong and horrible but you're not ok with one specific person speaking their mind. ....right. only 8 months late!
Kwing I agree with the whole Christianity thing speak your piece bruh oh and since you wanna talk you Catholic mess look up your history, and know what religion came first to be honest this game has alot of what the masons believe so knock that crap off.
Great review.. i would like to see the scen when mario says "You dont recognize me? Its a me, Mario!" and i would like you to say something about the fact that you almost always fall down the buildings when you run and kill a soldier on the roof with the "wrist knife"..
@robloxace what the hell are you talking about? it's fiction what because ubisoft had a different take on this for their story is satanic? do you see any reference to satan here? it's just a game and because it says that the godess minerva and the others created the world makes this game satanic? it's just a well thought out fiction story that who knows why you think it's satanic is another stupid thing
Kwing... I like this game, but my respect for you has dwindled. You criticize a game of pure fantasy for not agreeing with your religious beliefs, and go on for 10 minutes about it! You claim many Christians were offended by it? WHO?!? Being Catholic myself, I feel that attempting to boycott a game or ranting against it that much just because you don't agree simply demonstrates a lack of tolerance. Its like boycotting Yu-Gi-Oh! because it states the Egyptian Gods are real. Its fiction, ok?
Its not a lack of tolerance, I spoke my mind. Because people didn't like what I had to say it offended them. Ubisoft had no issues with my Review. Parent's emailed me over the concern for this games ending and I spoke on their behalf. Shocker I am a role model! You speak of Tolerance what about other folks attacking Christianity using this game as a spring board? Still If I was on the wagon making fun Christianity you wouldn't have a problem with the review, that's your view of Tolerance. Sad..
@kNIGHTWING01 Kwing, listen, I'm Catholic myself. I share many of your beliefs, but I feel that this was an overreaction on your part. I believe that all are free to hold true what they believe is the truth, and acceptance of this is essential. As for your comment of people attacking Christianity using this game as a springboard, I understand your concern and unjustly attacking others is absurd, but its just a game, not a cold lashing out against all beliefs.
What I find amusing from people criticizing Christians is when we show emotion. The review was his own take as was the game developers had their version. It's no different. Even if you remove the emotion which didn't seem like much (NOT truly serious as in condemning since he liked the game) one can see his argument is sound in itself; NOT some rant.
This "open-minded" is often said by closed minded people and please restrain your emotion when you respond or then your not "open minded". ^^
Just for a kick. People not recognizing when their being Preached to. Your being preached to all the time about evolution in school, tv, etc. : There's no absolutes, then is evolution an absolute? Equal rights, but what of survival of the fittest? There is no God, but then man decides your life by their interpretation. If your gonna live with no god then live it for yourself or your still following someone. lol
Think about it, your restraining yourself if you limit yourself to man.
@jamiedw21 I've long since talked this out with Kwing and we're cool. You, though, I can argue with just fine.
Are you honestly sitting here and saying that a key part of the Assassin's Creed mythos wasn't needed? The entire Apple of Eden plot is more or less the focus of the series. You're telling me that they shouldn't have written it that way because you didn't want them to? Because a handful of people would forget that they're telling a FICTIONAL story and get offended? Brilliant.
@jamiedw21 that you put it that way iguess you have a really good point there.Personally I havent played the game so I wouldnt know anything about the story,and i guess that comment i posted earlier was alittle unneeded..thanks for clearing it up for me
In the last episode (about the physics), in addition to it, when you jump off of the viewpoints into hay, thats off. If you jump from a two story window into something like that you can hurt yourself. so i dont think he could do it from 10
If they made all the physics realistic, the game would be incredibly slow. Not to mention we wouldn't be able to climb building, which this series is best known for.
it easy to kill those big guys u just disarm them and use their weapon against them and then use tha big sword or axe and beat shit out of everybody! thats my style only hands here !
excellent I tend to play it at birthdays with my uncles they are incredibly good at it. I downloaded it perfectly free for my ps3 here 115 games (.) com they have thousands and the best thing is they are all free too by the way 0:30 to 2:40 was awesome
I haven't played this one yet but I played the first and loved all aspects of the gameplay except for the storyline which I too found extremely offensive, if they stopped ripping on Christianity so much then id have to call it the perfect game
An epic review for an epic game. It's really encouraging to see a reviewer still willing to defend Christianity, especially since I write movie reviews. Can't wait for the next Ninja Turtles review! TURTLE POWER!!!
This may be one of your best reviews yet, Kwing. Well, in my opinion anyways. My favorite of the other reviews. Even though you didn't like giving the history lesson, I loved it. I didn't even know it was what you talked me through it hahahah.
i'm kinda suprised about the score you gave this game, cause the 'bad' part of your review, you were kinda very mad about the anti-religion... and i gotta love your theme music =D
I have to say, out of all the reviews you've made, KWing, it's not your best review, but probably your strongest review. That's why you're a huge inspiration to me.
Your right, they shouldn't have made the plot anti-christian. Actually if you really start to look at it everything is becoming more and more anti religion in general.
What they should have done was never bring up the topic, thus making the game more neutral to players that have different beliefs. Other than that the game looks and plays great.
@nintendoforumuser Tthey had every right to bring it into the story. This is their story, not yours, not KWing's, not anyone else's. The story is actually beautifully done and told much better than the first game. The characters were more fleshed out and interesting, Ezio is a more three dimensional character than Altair and the game even expanded upon Altair's story, it's just much better in general, thanks in part to these themes. KWing is simply saying it's worse because he disagrees with it.
My friend and I played this game and finished it after 3 days in his basement with the blinds down on the couch with potato chips on the ground we were really disappointed with the anti-christian stuff. We feel the same way you do.
Great review! I do have to say, I really dont know what to think of the ending, and if it is meant to have an anti-christ saying or just a poor sci-fi explanation to keep the story going.
Prehaps being jewish and living in Israel gives me a different view of things.
anyway, I loved the review,I appriciate the fact that you stick to your ideals, and i'll start keeping an eye on your projects from now on.
Kwing, games are an art form. They don't exist just to please everyone and be fun (well, the more revolutionary ones at least). They also exist to make the player ask moral questions and experience alternate realities. Those are the games that I remember the most.
Ive got to give props KWing. You are and Still my Number 1 Review on the net. 4 videos, 36 minutes I think, and just the detail work and amazing intro and sections (gameplay, sound, etc) Its amazing how well you played it. I haven't finished AC1 yet but personally the story just is bleh. I only like the whole assassin stuff but not the story. From that Bad section, I can say you've done your research and that is the best thing I ever seen people do. 5 stars, and Keep it up Kwing. Number 1.
Kwing, I really agree with you not reviewing the next AC if the script goes against your believes because it's hard to be impartial in that cases and, as you well know, that the number 1 rule as a videogame review
Thanks man, Im hoping that isn't the case. I will be taking with the developers to see what I can expect from the next game. Hope you enjoyed the latest Episode. Arkham Asyulm won't be that long of a review though 25 mins top I think.
Arkham Asylum? That's great! I didn't know you were going to review it. By the way, since I caught you here, have you given any though about that issue of Lucasarts?
About removing the Nazi's from the Indiana Jones games? Yeah I wrote them but I my Wife needs to water it down. Other wise Gottgame and Game Knights wouldn't be happy with them since they are affiliated with me...
I don't know why but the graphics besides cutscenes dont look as good as the first one, but most of the time AC2 looks better since AC1 mostly looks like everything was made of detailed clay...Maybe its the lighting
My only real complaint about the ending wasnt the story really i kinda figured they would go that route....my complaint is the difficulty...it WAS WAY TOO EASY! The end fight in the first game took me hours to beat - In AC2 It was just way too underwhelming...
Yeah you should have seen the script for this Episode some stuff was left out, like how easy the final boss is unlike Creed. Still over all this game is way better then the 1st, but no game is perfect and it has only a few issues that this Episode high lighted.
Agreed...for sure...I am a filmmaker myself...so I totally understand....I actually did an AC2 film--check my vids ---- Oh and I just wanted to say your reviews are Incredible the Chrono_Trigger one is really a Gem...I mean ...seriously a Gem...
I am not surprised that this game had a bad ending. I didn't like how it started. You have to run around in current times instead of Italy. I hated that. I also didn't like the matrix thing they had going on. It probaly was in AC1 I don' t own it. I would rather the events took place as you being an assassin in that time period. Not a guy hooked up to a machine seeing images. I am probably the only one who felf that way. It just bugged me for some reason. Other than that great,great game.
Ok man, the ending was probably anti-religious. I have to admit that I dont remember it fully. To be honest it was pretty crappy anyway, it was like the new indiana jones film. Aliens? What the fuck? Hopefully they will justify it but I have to admit that your rant really wasn't helpful. If I want a lesson in theology i'll go to another channel. But hey, it's your vid, and after all it was pretty good as a whole. Take it easy, I'm really glad you take the time to answer some comments.
I wish I could answer everybody's comments I just get to many a day. In the beginning I got maybe 10 a day. Now I get 200 a day. Nice chatting with ya, in the future though its easier for me to answer pm's if you have some concerns and stuff.
bringing your own religious views into the review and complaining about what others say really made you sound very unprofessional and brought down the quality of this review a lot
Bringing my view point into the video didn't make it any less professional many bloggers like the Amazing Atheist and others bash Christians and Religion all the time. The developers decided to put this in and I called them on it. Simple as that,. I have a responsibility to everyone in my audience Atheistic and Christains too. Besides I talked over with people at Ubisoft and discussed what I would bring up and it seemed ok.
I don't really think that this game is particularly anti-religious. I think its against organised religion which can become corrupt and power-hungry. This is shown as the enemies are the Knites Templar, who as you mentioned are not strictly religious and Ezio effectively says prayers to his assasination victims. Also, while this game is clearly sci-fi it still shows a version of reality which is still heavily based on Christian themes, with adam and eve and an all powerful god-like creator.
Oh I know Templar's didn't believe in God and I even said at the end, that even though this stuff seems anti religious, the game has lots of Judeo Christian themes. Like Good Vs Evil and Ezio does believe in God or atleast did until the end of the game.
Ok, well then there isn't a problem, unless you beleive that the existence of aliens disproves your version of religion, in which case half the games ever made would be anti-religious.
No man, what Minerva and the pope said was considered anti religious by Catholics and Christians. Alien's doesn't dis prove anything. Your right, Adam and Eve are in it, but Minerva states she and the other Roman Gods created Humanity in there own image. Then laughs when Ezio call's her a god and say's there is NO God or gods, people were just confused by them. Thats what I said it has nothing to do with Aliens. Listen I respect your opinion just pm if you want to discuss this more ok?
@ xldicelx Cool, good for you man, then you really shouldn't have a problem with the storline as they never attempt to disprove the existence of god and even hint that the story of adam and eve is basically correct.
I respect your beliefs. However; even though its a game, they shouldn't have thrown that stuff in. So I was hoping another game critic would examine this no one did. So have a big following with most Christians on the net. So I had to say something.
I had to remove stuff the truth about the Zeitgeist cult and other Intellectualism occult ideology. Due to one sided arguments where people like you view religion as the evil of the world. Need I remind you that Hitler, Stalin and Moa where all Atheists who mass murdered hundreds of Millions! Most of you intellectual types believe Morals are relative and thats Anarchy. Religion is a good thing it teaches people hope. Human beings can't function with out right and wrong, History as proven this.
Please don't start lying about Hitler here. Hitler was Catholic. Stalin and Mao on the other hand organised their countries as personal cults, placing themselves as gods for the people to worship.
Also, just because morals are relative doesn't mean that we can't find a sense of right and wrong that works for society (see the golden rule for instense).
You're furthermore sadly misinformed if you think religion only teaches hope (see the doctrine of hell and original sin for example).
I understand that its anti religious but christianity is not the only religion, plus its all fiction, well... most of the thing is, and you forgot to tell people about those red things on the monumental buildings or wte, you did show the video, but you didnt show the actual red marks
Ya I forgot the Glyphs. Although I pretty much explained everything else. Which wasn't an easy task. But as Gottgame keeps telling me, its impossible to please everyone and some things may be left out.
Yeah, you got almost everything, althought i didnt like how they say "keep away from the cross" or something, that wasnt smart of them, >.> Nice review tho, :P
Sweet thanks, I just hope you were entertained. Its hard to put these long Episodes together.
But I think it came out. I just wish I could have left the Occult stuff in. But got to many death threats from Zeitgeist cult members. Its funny they can make up lies about Religion and when somebody reveals the truth. They threaten you and YT rallies with them, I hate one sided cults like that.
Apparently since Im not left wing politically correct NUT job like your self, Im not allowed to have my own opinion or views. Spoken like a true atheist fascist.
atheist=fascist?That's news to me.Kwing,I respect you,your religion,your views and your right to say what you want but when I'm watching a review for a videogame I don't need or want to hear the reviewer's religious or political views.I just need to hear about the quality of the game.Gameplay,design,story and presentation,that's all.If you want to rant about religion then make it a separate video,not apart of your review.
No that person was a fascist I replied too. One of those bigot hating Anti religious types. Not all atheists were fascist...except Mo,Hitler,Lenin,Stalin etc. Yeah looking back, it wasn't the best Idea to do that, should have made a separate video. Sometimes I get to passionate about things and go a bit more indepth. The story end for 2 it seemed to echo alot of new age cult beliefs like the Zietgiest cult about the Aliens etc. After Brotherhood story seems to go all over the place
In Hollywood,Schools and some games too. However; most of us aren't getting executed or thrown in Jail like during the Cold War in Russia and China. For witnessing,owning a Bible and going to Church. But looking back at Communist Russia and China that is the dangers of an Atheist run society. They weren't very tolerant toward Religion. Stalin and Moa where very bad to Christians. So where the Romans. Still the US gives us the freedoms we take for granted in this country.

@jamiedw21 I've long since talked this out with Kwing and we're cool. You, though, I can argue with just fine.
Are you honestly sitting here and saying that a key part of the Assassin's Creed mythos wasn't needed? The entire Apple of Eden plot is more or less the focus of the series. You're telling me that they shouldn't have written it that way because you didn't want them to? Because a handful of people would forget that they're telling a FICTIONAL story and get offended? Brilliant.

@jamiedw21 that you put it that way iguess you have a really good point there.Personally I havent played the game so I wouldnt know anything about the story,and i guess that comment i posted earlier was alittle unneeded..thanks for clearing it up for me

good for you for pointing that stuff out in ep 3- something i noticed while playing this as well

In the last episode (about the physics), in addition to it, when you jump off of the viewpoints into hay, thats off. If you jump from a two story window into something like that you can hurt yourself. so i dont think he could do it from 10

Fun =/= Realism
If they made all the physics realistic, the game would be incredibly slow. Not to mention we wouldn't be able to climb building, which this series is best known for.

OZITOMAE 2 years ago
Your right, they shouldn't have made the plot anti-christian. Actually if you really start to look at it everything is becoming more and more anti religion in general.
What they should have done was never bring up the topic, thus making the game more neutral to players that have different beliefs. Other than that the game looks and plays great.
nintendoforumuser 2 years ago
@nintendoforumuser Tthey had every right to bring it into the story. This is their story, not yours, not KWing's, not anyone else's. The story is actually beautifully done and told much better than the first game. The characters were more fleshed out and interesting, Ezio is a more three dimensional character than Altair and the game even expanded upon Altair's story, it's just much better in general, thanks in part to these themes. KWing is simply saying it's worse because he disagrees with it.

My friend and I played this game and finished it after 3 days in his basement with the blinds down on the couch with potato chips on the ground we were really disappointed with the anti-christian stuff. We feel the same way you do.

Great review! I do have to say, I really dont know what to think of the ending, and if it is meant to have an anti-christ saying or just a poor sci-fi explanation to keep the story going.
Prehaps being jewish and living in Israel gives me a different view of things.
anyway, I loved the review,I appriciate the fact that you stick to your ideals, and i'll start keeping an eye on your projects from now on.
God bless and happy gaming

Kwing, games are an art form. They don't exist just to please everyone and be fun (well, the more revolutionary ones at least). They also exist to make the player ask moral questions and experience alternate realities. Those are the games that I remember the most.

Ive got to give props KWing. You are and Still my Number 1 Review on the net. 4 videos, 36 minutes I think, and just the detail work and amazing intro and sections (gameplay, sound, etc) Its amazing how well you played it. I haven't finished AC1 yet but personally the story just is bleh. I only like the whole assassin stuff but not the story. From that Bad section, I can say you've done your research and that is the best thing I ever seen people do. 5 stars, and Keep it up Kwing. Number 1.

I am not surprised that this game had a bad ending. I didn't like how it started. You have to run around in current times instead of Italy. I hated that. I also didn't like the matrix thing they had going on. It probaly was in AC1 I don' t own it. I would rather the events took place as you being an assassin in that time period. Not a guy hooked up to a machine seeing images. I am probably the only one who felf that way. It just bugged me for some reason. Other than that great,great game.

Ok man, the ending was probably anti-religious. I have to admit that I dont remember it fully. To be honest it was pretty crappy anyway, it was like the new indiana jones film. Aliens? What the fuck? Hopefully they will justify it but I have to admit that your rant really wasn't helpful. If I want a lesson in theology i'll go to another channel. But hey, it's your vid, and after all it was pretty good as a whole. Take it easy, I'm really glad you take the time to answer some comments.

@Fanthrose
Bringing my view point into the video didn't make it any less professional many bloggers like the Amazing Atheist and others bash Christians and Religion all the time. The developers decided to put this in and I called them on it. Simple as that,. I have a responsibility to everyone in my audience Atheistic and Christains too. Besides I talked over with people at Ubisoft and discussed what I would bring up and it seemed ok.
kNIGHTWING01 2 years ago
I don't really think that this game is particularly anti-religious. I think its against organised religion which can become corrupt and power-hungry. This is shown as the enemies are the Knites Templar, who as you mentioned are not strictly religious and Ezio effectively says prayers to his assasination victims. Also, while this game is clearly sci-fi it still shows a version of reality which is still heavily based on Christian themes, with adam and eve and an all powerful god-like creator.

Oh I know Templar's didn't believe in God and I even said at the end, that even though this stuff seems anti religious, the game has lots of Judeo Christian themes. Like Good Vs Evil and Ezio does believe in God or atleast did until the end of the game.
kNIGHTWING01 2 years ago
Ok, well then there isn't a problem, unless you beleive that the existence of aliens disproves your version of religion, in which case half the games ever made would be anti-religious.
fretewe 2 years ago
No man, what Minerva and the pope said was considered anti religious by Catholics and Christians. Alien's doesn't dis prove anything. Your right, Adam and Eve are in it, but Minerva states she and the other Roman Gods created Humanity in there own image. Then laughs when Ezio call's her a god and say's there is NO God or gods, people were just confused by them. Thats what I said it has nothing to do with Aliens. Listen I respect your opinion just pm if you want to discuss this more ok?

and we know a lot more now than ever before like the human genome astrophysics atomic structures and so on
my point is that science has given us so much to help humanity while religion have given us stuff like the irak war 911 and mass murder
superplayer009 2 years ago
I had to remove stuff the truth about the Zeitgeist cult and other Intellectualism occult ideology. Due to one sided arguments where people like you view religion as the evil of the world. Need I remind you that Hitler, Stalin and Moa where all Atheists who mass murdered hundreds of Millions! Most of you intellectual types believe Morals are relative and thats Anarchy. Religion is a good thing it teaches people hope. Human beings can't function with out right and wrong, History as proven this.
kNIGHTWING01 2 years ago
Please don't start lying about Hitler here. Hitler was Catholic. Stalin and Mao on the other hand organised their countries as personal cults, placing themselves as gods for the people to worship.
Also, just because morals are relative doesn't mean that we can't find a sense of right and wrong that works for society (see the golden rule for instense).
You're furthermore sadly misinformed if you think religion only teaches hope (see the doctrine of hell and original sin for example).

Sometimes I get to passionate about things and go a bit more indepth.

In Hollywood,Schools and some games too. However; most of us aren't getting executed or thrown in Jail like during the Cold War in Russia and China. For witnessing,owning a Bible and going to Church. But looking back at Communist Russia and China that is the dangers of an Atheist run society. They weren't very tolerant toward Religion. Stalin and Moa where very bad to Christians. So where the Romans. Still the US gives us the freedoms we take for granted in this country.
