Assassin's Creed
We plunge into the heart of Ubisoft's crusader
For another equally quick but marginally safer way down, there is the “leap of faith.” This near-suicidal plunge allows you to get from the top of a high building, losing pursuers on the way down but hopefully saving your bones in a pile of fortuitous hay at the bottom. And while this move seems immensely risky at first, you’ll always land safely so long as there’s plenty of horse-chow below, as it’s all part of the contextual nature of Creed. Because, unlike other games, your movements and skills aren’t attached to precise button pushes - although slick timing does play a part. Instead it’s more about picking the right idea and letting the context take care of the rest.
