Gameplay
Gameplay
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is a third person action-adventure video game with main emphasis on sandbox style gameplay in an open world. Like the previous installments, the gameplay's core mechanics are based on parkour & climbing movements, crowd stealth, assassinations and melee fighting system. The combat system features several improvements and for the first time in the series.
The game introduces a brand-new management system: the player can recruit new members by destroying any of twelve "Borgia towers" around Rome where troops are stationed, then rescuing threatened citizens in their districts from harassing guards. The player, as Ezio, can then send them to missions around Europe or call them for support during missions by pressing "T". The assassin recruits are also able to provide arrow support for the player. Tasking the Assassins is necessary to make them gain experience. Assassins can die on missions, from which they will not return. Ezio gets new gadgets, such as Leonardo da Vinci's parachute, which can be used when jumping from tall buildings. The player is also featured by getting poison darts, a faster acting poison, a crossbow, and the ability to hold and throw heavier weapons like axes.
Within the story line of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Ezio needs to destroy Borgia towers which prevent Ezio from renovate all the stores in rome. There are 12 towers to destroy. When you destroy a tower you are able to renovate all the stores that had been in this area to gain money from them in time periods. Later in the game you won't have any money problems because of those stores that give you the needed money.
Moreover there is another new feature in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. You can ride horses now inside Rome. This is really necessary because otherwise you would spend about 20 minutes to run from the one side of Rome to the other. The horses are a really nice idea because additionally you are able to fight from the top of the horses and they even help you to escape from several missions.
You may ask now how Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is motivating you to do all these things. One of the best things of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is the mission design. The most people will think that you are doing the same all the time. Basicaly this is ture but I've never seen the same thing so amesomly suited like in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. You are going to eliminate many people in ACB. For example you need to find a banker of the borgia family. During the mission you are climibing up the pantheon, slip in the role of a roman officer, cover in the crwod and much more.

Story
Story
Using the Animus 2.0, Desmond attempted to relive one of the late memories of his ancestor, Ezio Auditore, hoping that it would reveal the location of the Apple. However, instead of entering the 1507 memory, he was forced into a different one, occurring during a battle in Viana. From there, as Ezio looked upon the besieged Viana Castle, he recalled the similar events of the siege of Monteriggioni, subsequently forcing Desmond back further, into a memory from 1499.
Then the story of Ezio is being told in the next 15 hours. Desmond only appears in the endgame again. Ezio lost the Eden-Apple and now needs to recover it. Because Ezio wants revenge from the attack on Monterggioni by Cesare Borgia, he now founds a brotherhood to destroy the finance system of the Borgia because Ezio wants to make the troops of Cesare Borgia revolt. Cesare, who isnt in Rome because of his Conquests around Italy, comes back after Ezio cut down the borgia influence around rome. Then Ezio tries to confrontate Cesare for the next 5 years.
