Would you want kids and animals (dogs, cats) in AC2? | Forums

I think that it would be a good improvement.

I presume you mean in AC2?

You might want to amend your thread title

yeah... but i think it's not going to hapen this time around, but maybe if there were kids, the game would turn very sadic... you know... being able to kill kids...

at leats it turn out like Fable in which you can't kill the kids neither the chickens...

anyway it would help to gave more life to the world

It would be nice if you could pay kids to do errands for you, but on no circumstances you should be able to assassinate kids. Not even as an option. That's just sick. Really sick.

*Selects the "no" option* Burn them all!

Trust me, this game would never see the light of day if you were able to kill kids. Governments and soccer moms across the globe would revive Jack Thompson so that he could challenge Ubisoft to Mortal Kombat.

... *ahem*

Aside from that, though, yes, I think kids would be a nice touch, as long as they aren't thrown into the annoying character role like beggars.

But as far as dogs and cats go, no, I think that's a bit too much. There are other, better ways to make Assassin's Creed feel more polished than the occasional animal encounter.

I think having them would be good because it would make the enviroment more real, but if they can't do it having just the sounds of kids playing or dogs barking would be cool.

You heard the occasional dog bark in AC1 as far as I can remember, so the same sort of sound effects will probably be included in AC2, as for children are concerned... No thanks!

Considering Ezio's popularity with the ladies, it is most likely that if they include kids in the game, many times random children will run to you and yell "PAPA".

Maybe just dogs to add a tactical action, the guards would use them to try and hunt the assassin. You walk into a street and the guard dog starts barking, now the guards in that area will be more alert for a while.

That would be quite disturbing
