The idea and design of the hidden blade is to reward players skillful enough to get close enough to their target undetected with a swift equally stealthy kill.
Sure it did damage to him, but he would always survive, calling for more help and soon the entire fortress knew of my presence.Īll feeling of stealth gone. On the very first assassination mission directly following the aquisition of the hidden blade, I found it impossible to kill the main assassination target with the hidden blade. I recently found myself receiving the series renound hidden blade, however my excitment was very swiftly taken from me when I realized one fatal flaw. So I've been playing this game, and very early on I'm noticing an issue which entirely breaks the format of Assassin's Creed, and in my view, relinquishes all enjoyment of stealth gameplay, which is the premise of the entire series.
