IIMualim, Don't you see that is exactly what I was talking about. In the games after AC 1 the combat was made too easy. In AC 1 it was very realistic cause fighting was intense and you had a VERY high chance of dying in battle, that makes it more challenging and that's what serius gamers want, plus it teaches you to be more stealthy and ignore your urge to kill someone cause one mistake and you will have to restart at checkpoint. This experience of killing and being stealthy for your OWN sake and not only for your mission was why AC 1 was one of my favourite games until AC II was released. They ruined the fighting in the later installments so it is nice to see that we will see a return of the old AC 1 mechanisms and all new methods as well in AC III. Can't wait for AC III. I hope Ubisoft doesn't ruin it but for once I don't care if they do cause the new features that were leaked are just too awesome to critisize.

End of rant.
