Ubisoft's "Assassin's Creed II Remastered" has garnered some bad feedback with regards to some graphics and gameplay issues as players claim the original is still better.
Remastered games these days are becoming more common as original content also decreases. Now, Ubisoft has recently released the "Assassin's Creed The Ezio Collection" which sees the original "Assassin's Creed" trilogy remastered. However, the feedback does not seem to great considering that there are already memes generated from the mishap.
Ubisoft released the said remastered trilogy on November 15 for the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. "Assassin's Creed II Remastered" turned out to be a joke because of some graphical glitches and absurd gameplay changes, Polygon has learned.
One part in the first chapters of the game sees Ezio Auditore da Firenze dealing with an enemy. The interesting part is one bystander which looks entirely different and funny compared to the original version.
Fans have also noticed that the skin tones in the remastered "Assassin's Creed II" has become whiter with Ezio, who was supposed to be a little tan, turned out to be as white as the others. There are also some outfit changes and the guy beside Ezio's enemy also looks completely out of place in the scene with popping eyes and thick lips.
Ezio's climbing in the "Assassin's Creed II Remastered" edition has also changed in terms of speed as he climbs faster but more disturbing compared to the original, Dorkly reported. The flow is too fast and looks unnatural even for those who are not avid "AC" players.
Ubisoft has not yet given any comment regarding some of the glitches found in the "Assassin's Creed II Remastered" version. In true Ubisoft fashion, the glitches could be fixed in a later update.
"Assassin's Creed II" has been considered as one of the strongest games in Ubisoft's "AC" franchise. The first game was considered to be unique but boring in the long run because of the repetitiveness in the gameplay with regards to the missions. Players hope that Ubisoft will still fix the said glitches and bugs in the "Assassin's Creed The Ezio Collection."
