Finished the game, its only con is simultaniousness on some parts and the changed camera mode in some situations that cant be turned off which is very annoying because it changes the direction of controlls without any actual necessity for it, in other categories it scores all points, the story is grander than the holy bible, the concepts of religion are mindblowing, plot is intriguing, characters have strong personalities, and the end is just epic, atmosphere in this game reminds me of mass effect 1&2. The graphics of the game are good yet the game plays very smoothly even on weaker computers. The physics are ok but the way how game works twists the laws of nature (jumping into a haystack from 80 meters of height and such). Sounds and voice acting are pristine, although some sequences, where your assassination targets have speaches are too repetative. The characters and story fit well enough into history that you dont know where the truth lies. Some religious people might find the ideas offensive, but then again it gives us to think; the theory of relativness - nothing is true, everything is permitted. The codex entries that you gather throughout the game are quite inspiring too. I found part of 20th entry very interesting. It talks about comparisons between many and single god based religions:
"I have studied the ancient pagan faiths that came before this more recent
obsession with a single, divine creator. They seem to have focused more on
the fundamental forces at play in the world around us and less on arbitrary
moral rules . . .
The sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening. The tides ebb and
flow. Grass grows, withers, dies and then in time, emerges from the ground
once more. The air turns warm then cools and back again. Some hidden energy
keeps us fitted to the ground and pulls us back when we attempt to leave it.
Each of these movements was represented before by a god or goddess. Each
force given face, but recognized as something distinct and powerful. Which
is not to say there were not connections between these forces - a pantheon
of individual spirits - of rules. Invisible hands guiding to progress of
the world around us.
And so here there was an attempt to categorize, study, explain, and understand
the way things work - even if it was flawed. But no more. Now we are asked to
succumb to a far more simplified explanation. How naive to believe there might
be a single answer to every question. Every mystery. That there exists a lone
divine light which rules over all. They say it is a light that brings truth
and love. I say it is a light that blinds us - and forces us to stumble about
in ignorance.
I long for the day when men will turn away from invisible monsters and once
more embrace a more rational view of the world. But these new religions are so
convenient - and promise such terrible punishment should one reject them - I
worry that fear shall keep us stuck to what is surely the greatest lie ever
told."
