"Luckily your time playing as Desmond is also brief. Desmond has never been a compelling character, he’s a whiny bitch who just does what he’s told and seems very easily swayed. In fact, without giving away too much, in AC2 he’s reliving Ezio’s life from the point he is in order to make him less useless. Yeah. You kinda suck, Desmond. But like Altair, the real star of the game here is Ezio.

And unlike Altair, we get to learn alot more about Ezio. His personality, his life before he dons the classic assassin robes, we get to see him actually grow and develop as a character, and he even has an accent. We also see Ezio’s face quite a bit and he has robust body language and facial expressions, he feels much more alive and three-dimensional than his predecessor. Though it seems dicking around on rooftops may be a hereditary trait that Altair passed on, because I’m certain the people of Florence are accustomed to seeing Ezio and his brother crawling around on buildings and leaping from roof to roof like assholes."
