Your cynicism is showing, The.Outsider :P

I wouldn't mind so much, I'm hoping they'll have new combat animations then - the grappling hook isn't really thrown but shot, so I don't think it'd make a whole lot of sense. I'm wondering if swinging from it is still an option, as seen in that leaked screenshot. Might just be contextual though, like that one time Connor used his tomahawk to use a zipline in a cutscene.
