What are these CONTROLS? – Assassin’s Creed II

After my experience with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, I decided to return even further into the past with Assassin’s Creed II, but I immediately noticed something was amiss…

The control scheme is so outrageous, just icons, for both controller and keyboard, like what on Earth?

“Yeahhh… That’s kinda why I stopped playing, the controls were really weird. Glad to know they were also weird for controller lol.” – Dust (2025)

This isn’t the first game I’ve run into that did something like this, like please, just stop…

I originally played the game back in High School on the PlayStation 3, so why didn’t they just port the control scheme over for PC and why go through so much trouble to make an icon mess? Why destroy a legendary legacy for PC players? It makes no sense.

I’m not going to lie either, when I first saw the controls, I was immediately like no way I’m playing this, I do not have the time…
