Not that having one hidden blade would bother me too much it's just that having two was much more easier to assassinate two guards stationed together than assassinting one and then the other after a pause. So long as the animation for stealth assassinations don't go back to the *close up* I honestly didn't like that. Preferred the animations in AC:B and AC:R where the animation didn't have a close up.
