    Started playing through the Assassin’s Creed series again but completely disabling the hud, even the minimap. I did have to open the big map frequently at the beginning but you get used to it and it just feels cool having to scope out/explore an area to find and get to your target and deal with guards as they come

    I will say the first game feels like it was made to be played this way, but the second game (which I’m on now) and later unfortunately don’t feel like that. Still gonna try to get through the whole series like this though

      Iirc (and the story was not complete bogus) the first game was designed for it but some exec didnt like it and forced hud and minimap late in development and is why it feels easy and repetitive if you play with minimap. Wouldnt be surpirsed if ac2 then was not developed with that in mind and would explain why it doesnt work as well
