This game was really, really annoying. That's the only word to describe it. You can't hop from rooftop to rooftop without some silly sod telling you to get down, and if you dare silence the little [bleep] Ezio style, every guard within a mile radius will instantly have a beat on you. Oh, but you better not kill too many of them like you usually do with Altair, or you'll get notoriety level 3 and a metric [bleep]ton of elite units akin to the Janissary from previous installments will instantly spawn and either force you to run and hide or you'll almost assuredly die. Is a small area restricted because bandits are holded up there? Better not let the town guard see you there, or they'll attack you. And those bandits? Better kill all of them silently, because if you don't, every guard within the vicinity will get in on the action. Similar story with british forts and patroit guards. Also, I don't know if this was a bug, but when I was taking a british fort, it somehow upgraded me from the standard level 2 notoriety to level 3. Needless to say, I was instantly screwed by about a dozen elite redcoats. Now excuse me while I go take out all of the pent up frustration with AC3 by mowing down a few dozen Borgia in AC:Brotherhood.
