I’m not sure why the developers left out a kill count in Assassin’s Creed. Wouldn’t it have been fun to know exactly how many guards or templars you’ve killed. It could also show your number of assassinations and your weapon of choice. It’s a cool feature that I’d love to see in Assassin’s Creed 2.

It wouldn’t have to be an option you see at all times, but it would definitely add to the fun factor of the game. You could pause the game and check your kill count, then resume play and just run around killing guards when you’re bored. Instead of running from them all the time, you could kill them.
