Ha that is perfect
I think yes. I know you can upgrade and get more powers as you progress.

I hope Giantbomb do a QL
I'm not sure if you get abilities through XP or you just purchase them. I haven't seen anything regarding XP in the videos but you do get things to sell at the pub (your "base" in the game). Since you do upgrade abilities I have to assume it's through money and not XP.
Modern warfare has nothing to do with Assassin's Creed. Huh? I'm seriously confused now.

Really hope this is good. Hate to do this but I am going to wait and see how it pans out once it is in players hands before I buy.

You never played Brotherhood?
No, guess I should catch up.

Does anyone have any idea how long this game is supposed to be? It looks great, but I'm imagining a 30+ hour adventure every time I see it, and I have no idea what I've seen or heard that would lead to believe it is that long.
It could be Dark Messiah where it just dispenses you points at the end of each mission based on what you do.
dont expect that long. However, if this sort of game is your sort of game, you have hours of replayability ahead of yourself. Harvey Smith is all about choice and player freedom.

PS3 and 360.
I'm having such a hard time deciding between comfy couch and pc on this one.
gah, my bad, I can see how you'd think that from the OT but a quick google search should leave you at ease

Yes! I can't wait to play this game.
Ah the other game coming out on the 9th I am looking forward to. I will be playing XCOM first, but I am thinking I might just switch between the two now. Since I assume I will need stress breaks from XCOM and its probably not going to be that story heavy. Either way the 9th will be a very good day for me.

Nice OT. Beside AC III, this is my most anticipated game that will launch this year.

To buy or not to buy. I still have a few games I'm playing right now and Halo will be coming out next month.
If I don't get it on release day, I'll definitely get it before the end of the year.

I'm waiting until Black Friday...my problem is similar: I will most likely build a pc next may...should I wait or just get it for the 360 on Black Friday?
So how are you guys planning to do your first playthrough. I think my first time through will focus on with SOME violence. Primarily non-lethal but if I see a guard near a ledge I don't think I'll be able to help myself. I think that playthrough will allow me to get to know the layout of the levels for my second no kill run.
Planning on going stealth as much as possible. I am certain scenarios will arise and spoil those plans, though. Which should be pretty fun all by itself.

Well I hope it doesn't. The exp system was the means by which Human Revolution skewered itself. If this game is another Human Revolution, then it will be interesting (at least for awhile), but largely disappointing.
I actually think there is no way this game is going to present any sort of real challenge, but I hope the level design keeps up enough to make the powers matter enough to be fun. Otherwise it is just a toy box.
Stealth and using the most out of my abilities (including killing). Basically playing according to how I feel in the moment, without trying to achieve anything in particular.
Then we'll get to no-kills playthrough and the FUCK SHIT UP/BE CREATIVE one
Time bend, windblast, double jump (agility). No real plan, lol.

No kill first time.
That's pretty much my plan as well. Maybe swap the places of the no-kill and fuck shit up. I like to save the no kills run for last. That way I can get a feel for the game and have some idea how to do it.

I have been on pretty much media blackout ever since I learned the game's genre, its setting, and its positive impressions. If the impressions people give in here continue to be good then this will be the first game I buy at full price in a loooong time.
