Default Man, if I never hated these 3D tetris levels, I definitely do now.

At first I thought, "eh, more of that single player platformer nonsense? How bad could it be?"

It's bad. Like really, really bad. Plus, it has NOTHING in common with Assassin's Creed Gameplay, which is the reason I buy these games.

I agree 100%

When I bought this DLC I thought it was like Da Vinci Dissapearance from ACB, not this nonsense 3D tetris-like that has nothing to do with AC

If I could just see my ankles, maybe this wouldn't be so bad. Then maybe I could actually tell where I'm stepping.

Agreed,

I can't imagine what the Ubisoft bosses have been thinking when putting something like this out. Considering the price the answer is: making as much money as they can while the word isn't out yet that it's a complete crap of a DLC...

While I was watching the credits roll after breaking the loop I couldn't help but to think: There was needed THIS much people to make this DLC? SERIOUSLY?

OMG, I'm waiting for ACIII. Maybe that can make me forget this abomination.

Well, it's exactly the same as the Desmond levels in the retail game, so you can't say you were surprised, right?

I actually liked these levels slightly better than those from the retail game, because they offered a little more variety in terms of visuals... and because the story about Subject 16 was interesting.

I just watched everything on youtube. I didn't like Desmond's levels, so no reason to buy this, too.
I hated how floaty the gameplay felt. Like you weren't actually walking but just a disembodied floating head. Also, weird physics. Like, how moving platforms could move away underneath you when you jump up.

If you considered it nonsense in the first place, why did you even buy it? You knew what to expect.

The only thing I'm slightly disappointed about is the background information. I expected to get more info about Clay and Lucy, but the story was rather short and vague.

Tbh, I got more interesting information from the abstergo documents and cutscenes that you unlock by ranking up online, at no extra charge.

I didn't buy it because I didn't care for the block stuff.

Does anyone know of a video with just the dialogue? The only one I've found so far is of a guy that really sucks at it and takes his sweet time doing everything.

Same here. I don't want to put the money out for this, but I definitely wanted to see it so that I could fill in the plotholes.

As the majority here, this doesn't interest me at all. But as I really want 100% on this game I've already bought the DLC. I'm definitely in no rush to start it though.
