Still don't see what draws people to this series. The platforming is basic and frustrating when the shitty automatic commands dont do what you want. The combat is nothing close to other games in the action genre. I cant really comment on the story, since I only played through the first assassin mission in the first one, and quit half way through the second.
That's because it's not an action game, but a puzzle game. Finding the best way to assassinate your target as stealthy has possible and all that jazz. That and the underlying story just completely kicks ass.

However not everyone plays games for the story and I can understand why people quickly get bored of these games when they don't pay attention to the story.
