I just finished AC Revelations, and holy shit was that a slog to go through: Why the fuck am I killing Byzantines FOR the Turks?? I'm playing as a 15th Century Italian Catholic, and I'm assasinating FOR the invading, controlling, slaving empire?? What the absolute fuck.

Basically the title. Old game but I finally got it on sale, I don't care about fighting for the invading brown people, especially when I'm roleplaying as a Rennaisance-era Christian European. What were they thinking.

AC1: I'm an Arab ninja taking out Crusaders currently invading my homeland. Great.

AC2: I'm a rennaisance Italian ninja in a blood feud against another family of rennaisance Italians. Perfect.

AC2B: I'm the same Italian ninja liberating Rome from the the invading corrupt Italians. This makes sense.

AC2R: I'm the same Italian and I'm siding with the Turks in crushing the remenants of Constantinople. What. The OBVIOUS choice was liberating Constantinople from invading corrupt Ottomans. Byzantines who, wait for it, would have called themselves ROMANS at the time. This was so obvious, what were they smoking.

EDIT: Everything else was great though. I enjoyed the cutscenes and the Altair-Ezio-Desmond finale. But the gameplay story (ie most of the fucking game) was ass.
