Stolen Pixels #18: Diving Bored

Killing people all day can get, you know, depressing. Good thing Assassin's Creed's Altair has a few hobbies to keep his spirits up.

"Hey! The roof diver! Man, I love your work!" Hahaha. Hilarious!

I love the way everyone waits around until your done having your fun round the city, you'd think after the first few killings as soon as your intended target hears word of the "roof diver" he'd be off

Or maybe they all hold their cities in such regard they think youll never get bored of messing around.

Altair is enthusiastically energetic, yet meandering and distracted. He's like the Calvin & Hobbes of killers.

This sold it for me right there, bravo.

He's really just playing Calvin Ball with European rules.

holy crap shamus this was incredible. well written humerous and insightful. i loved this game just as much as you describe it although to be honest i enjoy the assasinations the most, cux i like planning my path to the target, sneaking up behind him and shoving my knife in betweeen his vertebrae/throat

Best one yet Shamus, excellent work!

Gave me laugh as usual, thanks!

That seemed like a review of the game... a great one at that.

Hurrah!

Great work, as usual.

I agree ^^

Would the Hitman games be considered games about assasination? I mean, sure, you CAN probably kill a dozen people each level and get away with it, but you're not really supposed to kill anyone but your target : /

Making a game about assasination where the greater part of the time is spent assasinating would be... weird...

That game had rules?
