2. Killer Counters/Takedowns
Ever used your enemies' own weapons against them? Of course you have. You've already seen plenty of brutal and bloody take-outs from past Assassin's. What makes this game s different? Firstly, with all-new weapons and revamped old ones, we have an immense amount of ways to dispatch our enemies. The counters and takedowns are so bloody and extreme that I actually feel bad for the helpless NPCs that I'm killing. And I've never felt bad for an NPC in my life before! Except maybe those poor zombies in Dead Island. The human shield feature (mentioned above) will come into play when countering soldiers in a large group. So will the rope dart and all of the guns. Actually, every weapon has it's own set of deadly counters, except maybe the bow and arrow.
