Jan. 2nd, 2012 11:32 pmSo I'm back in the ATL. Got back early enough to hit Gamestop to get a PSN card so I'd have enough funds for the Davinci Disappearance DLC for AC:B (I'm still annoyed they stopped selling codes on Amazon, its like PSN had that big hack last year, do they expect me to actually put my card on there?!), then grabbed some groceries and dinner at Five Guys.
But yeah, since I'd done everything in AC:B, but wanted more to do than just try for 100% sync. For some reason, it took forever to download, even though it was only ~1650 MB. One good thing about the download is it comes with the "drachen armor" oufit. Its not actually armor, just a skin like the Raiden outfit or Desmond. I don't think the Armor of Brutus is that bad, I just hate how the fur and cape clip into each other, it seems amateurish, you'd think with how great the rest of the game is they could code it to not do that. But you can select this outfit and its appearance overrides the Armor of Brutus, so you still have the armor's stats, but the Drachen armor's look. The Drachen Armor outfit is quite sleek though. Though since it is an outfit, you can't use the auditore or borgia capes, which means I can gain notoriety again, and I can't be killing with impunity, at least not without having to remember to lower my notoriety. (Oh wait, NM, it also apparently causes you to not gain notoriety!)
But, I would have had to allow myself to gain notoriety anyways- there were several trophies that were listed, but were actually only available once you downloaded the DLC. One of which is to bribe a herald to lower your notoriety, then pickpocket him to get your money back. It is annoying that I didn't realize those trophies were only available after you got the DLC, because I did that! And I knew I did an arrow storm that killed at least 10 guards, I was wondering why I didn't get the air strike trophy! Same for tossing a smoke bomb at a guard as well as a spear and axe from at least 10m.
TV commentary:
Pretty Little Liars- So this started back up. ( spoiler cut )
