Although some parts of it were a bit annoying - particularly the informer missions - this has been an excellent game.
I was wrong about there being two more missions in the animus - the last block is full of the additional missions such as collecting flags and killing Templars. There was an obvious twist to the story in the end, though I wasn't expecting that the enemy at the funeral would turn out to not be Robert. That makes it 50% on the twist-is-a-surprise-o-meter.
After spending most of the game trying to be sneaky and quiet and hiding from the guards, the last bit of the game forced me to fight out in the open, which grated somewhat. Luckily, I had had plenty of practice at this since the guards throughout Jerusalem had a knack of seeing me even when I was trying to keep out of their way, and so I had been attacked many times over by the time I got to the final mission. The fights against Robert's men were tricky, and I frequently had to run away to regain some health before returning to the fight. Robert himself was a skilled fighter, blocking most of my attacks and forcing me to constantly parry.
But he went down, as did the super-secret-obvious end boss, and the game is finished.
I may well go back to collect some flags and kill some Templars, but will need to use a map if I don't want to end up wandering the kingdom forever.
