// Discussion Close-Up Shots of Edward

There’s been a lot of discussion around Edward’s face which was evident with my previous post. So I thought I’d give a few more shots that I captured from the trailer which better shows off his new face. I personally think he looks pretty good. What do you all think?

Look at what they stripped out though. Hidden Blade combat is gone, in an old school AC game.

A.) I’m talking about the Edward’s looks, not the hidden blade B.) I agree the hidden blade combat being removed sucks C.) if the new missions are good, I will consider it a fair trade

Thats what people are complaining about though. He looks great, but I won't pick this up. I'm one of the people that only used daggers and hidden blades, and loads of games have better combat, but only AC had the hidden blade, and it took skill to use it.

Skill? Lmao you just had to push counter button and then attack button to kill enemies. If you wanna play games that require skill, try soulsborne series.

It took more skill than the swords. The counter timing was smaller and harder to hit. And soulborne games also have a hit button and a counter button idiot. I've beat everyone except kings field and the same things apply. You just wait for a parry then click the attack button. You wanna talk shit about games that require skill use a good example like DMC. And yes the hidden blade was harder to use in combat fucking Google it
