AC Unity: I have never been so positively surprised by a game Posted: 28 May 2020 05:56 AM PDT Ok, so as a long time fan of this franchise I steered clear of unity for years, heeding the warnings of all the haters from here to Timbuktu who insist that it's the worst assassins creed title ever. I used to only own an xbox 360 anyway. During those years I played AC1, AC2, AC3, brotherhood, revelations, black flag and Rogue many times. All of those games tend to rank higher on people's lists than unity. Finally I got a new gen console and the first game I bought was Odyssey. I got enjoyment out of it for the first 30 hours or so but eventually got bored and disenchanted. It doesn't feel like assassins creed at all. It's fine as it's own game, but I don't understand how you can call it assassins creed. Despite all the warnings about unity I was always curious about it. Odyssey led me to yearn for a more classic AC experience. I wanted rooftops, historical buildings to climb, my hidden blade back...man I got what I was asking for! When I bought unity I had a feeling I would appreciate it. And I was blown away to find that it looks better than Odyssey (better lighting and clothing textures etc). The parkour blew me away. First thing I did was find the Ezio outfit and it nearly brought a tear to my eye, hopping around feeling as if I were playing a new gen remake of AC2. What I really can't believe about this game is the world. I was prepared to be severely underwhelmed by the map size after playing Odyssey (which is honestly so big it adds an element of monotony). But my god, Unity has a much denser, more intricate world. It has more authenticity to it, as if someone involved actually cared. The game does a great job at staying true to its roots, leading to a new gen AC experience with an exceptionally classic feel. Done raving but I guess my main point is don't always listen to people. Sometimes great games catch tons of hate, and sometimes it warps franchises into completely abandoning their roots. Origins I'm assuming is alot more like Odyssey, and syndicate I've never played either although I'm developing curiosity about it. [link] [comments] | ||
What do you think abou AC Syndicate Posted: 28 May 2020 08:50 AM PDT I just bought Syndicate and Im loving it. I dont know why people hate it so much. London is beautiful, the gamepley is good, the combat is fun, the soundtrack is a pure masterpiece and the best thing are the twins. They have so much chemistry together. Jacob is fun with his jokes and Evie is more serious and competent. I just think its underappreciated. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 May 2020 04:03 PM PDT Just thought it may be a great way to handle it, anyone else got any interesting suggestions? [link] [comments] | ||
Theory about King Alfred in Valhalla after Darby MCdevitts interview Posted: 28 May 2020 01:59 PM PDT After reading his interview, more and more do I think that King Alfred will go through what Eivor goes through, just from the opposite side of things. We know that Eivor meets the Assassins/Hidden ones early on in the game. What if King Alfred meets the Templars, and has his own conflicting thoughts and ideals wether he should join/help them or maybe even use them. I dont think he will simply be a puppet fot the Templars. I truly think he will have his own well written story arc about what to do with/about them throughout the game. And he wont just be a villain we assassinate and thats it. I cannot wait for this game. [link] [comments] | ||
Hope we can pet animals in Valhalla Posted: 28 May 2020 11:57 PM PDT We should be able to pet our tamed animals and other non-hostile animals such as cats, dogs! (or even goats lol) It's just so satisfying when we were able to do this in Black Flag. It is a minor feature so you misters and missus' developers can still add it if you haven't already haha If you add it, Valhalla will be rightfully nominated as Game of the Year lol [link] [comments] | ||
Assassin’s creed unity’s team when adding artifacts: Posted: 28 May 2020 04:56 AM PDT AC unity be like Ubisoft: okay so in this game we have a new collectible which you need to collect to get the Altair outfit... they're called artifacts. Me: okay sounds easy enough. Ubisoft: yeah but half of them can only be found in a type of mission, helix rifts. Me: sure, a little challenge, no problem. Ubisoft: you need to get a certain amount of points in these missions. Me: okay, sounds pretty good Ubisoft: within a certain time Me: okay... Ubisoft: the bonuses are sometimes double the amount you need to collect. Me: Uhu... Ubisoft: ow and there can be a tornado, boulders falling, an enemy plane,... Me: great.. Ubisoft: ow yeah and only ONE Artifact spawns per run Me: why? Ubisoft: AND most of the time, the one you already collected spawns!! Me: WHY Ubisoft: 🤷♂️ Bonus: I understand it used to be worse? With the companion app and so on? Thank god I wasn't a trophy hunter yet when this game came out [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 May 2020 07:03 AM PDT Mine was in Ac4 where you go to meet James Kidd in Tulum. You're telling me that highly trained Assassins can be easily knocked out by one pirate with no repercussions after that? [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 28 May 2020 09:50 PM PDT Note: I haven't played Origins in quite a long time, so I'm unfamiliar with just how involved the side quests got. Seriously. Odyssey and Origins are riddled with nothing but fetch quests. "Help me with ABC and I'll give you XYZ". I want to actually do something meaningful that impacts the world around me in some way! I want to feel like I made a difference in some regard! Not waste 15 minutes rescuing someone or investigating a love triangle or whatever. So pointless. I need something different for Valhalla. Otherwise, I might just walk away from the series for good. [link] [comments] | ||
So which Assassin was the best melee fighter? Posted: 28 May 2020 02:44 PM PDT Skill-wise, I mean. Because if we just drop all all of them into a fighting pit with their full kit, then obviously Jacob and Evie take it due to having revolvers and grenades. I'm not the biggest AC scholar, but I feel Edward should at least make it near the top, what with using two swords, which apparently is almost impossible to do effectively in real life, and all the pirate boarding action he canonically took part in. What do you think? [link] [comments] | ||
Historical Characters in AC: Valhalla Posted: 28 May 2020 03:34 PM PDT So, I compiled a list of historical characters that I believe we will meet in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. I strongly believe that one of the surprise areas will be Dublin, which is why some of the last Vikings I mentioned are on the list. I think that their inclusion would make for some interesting stories. Note: I know that many sources state that Halfdan, Ivar and Ubba are sons of the legendary Ragnar Lothbrok. However, I don't think that these three characters will actually be brothers by blood in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Instead, I believe that they will be three people from very different places. I think that they will call themselves the Sons of Ragnar Lothbrok as a way of inducing fear into their Anglo-Saxon enemies, because they know that the Anglo-Saxons fear the name Ragnar Lothbrok. However, throughout the course of their campaign in England they develop a strong bond and basically see themselves as brothers. By doing it this way rather than having them be actual brothers, it becomes much easier to explain the whole "Is Ímar and Ivar the Boneless the same person?", which I have seen other posts discuss. --- English Characters Alfred the Great, King of Wessex Odda, Ealdorman of Devon Wulfhere, Ealdorman of Wiltshire Ecgberht I, King of Northumbria Wulfhere, Archbishop of York Ricsige, King of Northumbria Ecgberht II, King of Northumbria Burgred, King of Mercia Ceolwulf II, King of Mercia Oswald, King of East Anglia Æthelred, King of East Anglia Donyarth, King of Cornwell --- Scandinavian and Irish Viking Characters Halfdan Ragnarsson Ivar the Boneless AKA Ímar Guthrum the Old Ubba Ragnarsson Oistin mac Amlaíb Bárid mac Ímair Harald Fairhair, King of Norway Let me know if you have some ideas for other historical characters that we might meet in Valhalla!

Proof that Barbaras is the most overpowered character in the game Posted: 28 May 2020 11:07 AM PDT While i was busy fighting 2 bounty hunters, Barnabas soloed Exekias the Legend and killed the most powerful hunter in the game. All shall bow to Lord Barnabas [link] [comments] | ||
Are tailing and eavesdropping part of Assassin's Creed Posted: 28 May 2020 01:54 PM PDT I hated these missions, they were tedious and annoying but do they still have place in assassin's creed? I think AC has lost a little identity and is focusing on being a warrior in the assassin's creed world rather than being an assassin in the world. Part of an assassin is being able to sneak around, use the shadows, hide in plain sight etc to get information and achieve kills. So could and should they return? I think they should. Not the amount they used to have and maybe reworked a little but I'd still like to see it back. Hopefully it'll add to being an Assassin. To those who don't like being an assassin go play a different game. Assassin's creed is about being an assassin and working in the shadows to protect people from templar/order of ancients, not some overpowered public warrior who announces themselves to the world.

Really glad I started with origins Posted: 28 May 2020 08:48 PM PDT Starting out with origins and odyssey first really allowed me to just enjoy the gane instead of comparing it to the past ones. I'm playing unity rn and its a huge difference between the old ac and new ac [link] [comments] | ||
History Timelines and Memory Sequences Posted: 29 May 2020 12:12 AM PDT So this is something that just needed to get off my chest. Considering Darby has stated that Valhalla will be more grounded and take a more historical approach, I hope the time periods and memory sequence system from the older games make a return. In that system, each set of plot and historical events took place within each 'sequence' made up of multiple memories (Origins had this to some extent with its 'Acts') and these sequences actually made sense lore wise as you had to synchronize with the ancestor/PoI's memories from the last stable one in proper order in order to be able to access their later memories. Speaking of time periods, this is another one of those sins of Odyssey... the time period is all over the place. We only get one timeline tag, that is 431 BCE, and are forced to piece together the game's timeline through in game events which if I recall correctly, there are only 4.
Odyssey story is all over the place and even feels contradictory at times when you factor in the DLC and other stuff. I sincerely hope Valhalla will have a proper cohesive plot structure with proper time and historical even representation. [link] [comments] | ||
Settlement location in AC Valhalla, hypothesis Posted: 28 May 2020 10:14 PM PDT I've been pouring over various maps of England, keeping in mind which Kingdoms existed at the time (Wessex, Mercia, East Anglia, and Northumbria), was well as what Darby said about the settlement being a hub. With the idea that a hub is usually centralized to its "spokes" I'm guessing our settlement will be in NE Mercia, somewhere between present day Nottingham and Leicester. This region has access to riverways that basically run every direction, and connect both to the North Sea, and the Atlantic. Additionally, we know that the Nottingham area was conquered by Vikings in 867 (game starts in 873). Here is the map of rivers in England. It's kind of mind boggling that they ever managed to fight off the invasions with how many rivers there are. https://www.wwf.org.uk/uk-rivers-map [link] [comments] | ||
How would you feel about an ac game where you start as a Templar then become an assassin? Posted: 28 May 2020 05:03 PM PDT I know it's like rouge but it would be nice to see a former Templar higher up and watch them flip sides and join the assassins. [link] [comments] | ||
Valhalla and Eivor's link to the brotherhood Posted: 28 May 2020 07:15 PM PDT I have this crazy idea that Eivor's link and narrative to the future brotherhood is two-fold, first the way they talk about him and his philosophies with the hidden blade, being conspicuous but at the same time we will see some form of social stealth return, I think Eivor will set the foundation for unseen but feared and will reveal the hidden ones to the order of ancients officially, anyway that's the idea.

Leonardo Da Vinci's flying machine in AC iii Posted: 28 May 2020 08:06 PM PDT Was doing a Homestead mission with Leonardo's flying machine, ended up in the lake, and couldn't figure out what went wrong. Then I remembered one mission from Assassin's Creed II and realized it had bonfires and that there were no bonfires to support Connor's flight on the frontier. [link] [comments] | ||
What are your thoughts on Assassins Creed 2? Posted: 28 May 2020 09:48 AM PDT For some context, I've just just finished AC2 for the first time through the Ezio collection. I've come back to the series after only playing through the first game not long after release and the opening of AC3 which I lost interest in quite quick. I was a fan of AC1 and enjoyed getting back into the series. Florence was stunning and Ezio was an appealing protagonist. I like the new features added and the early story was intriguing. However, even with so many positives the gameplay became really repetitive and I was disappointed with the mission design. This became apparent especially in Venice even though again it was a stunning place to visit. I just wanted to finish the story and it became a bit of a drag. Then came to the homecoming to Florence... Assassinate 9 lieutenants!? Are you kidding me! To be fair, at least some of these made you sneak around a little before assassinating the target. Anyway, I mostly enjoyed this game and I'm looking forward to find out what the Hell is going on with that ending in the Vatican. What are your guys thoughts on this game? [link] [comments] | ||
My thoughts on Syndicate after beating the main story. Posted: 28 May 2020 07:48 PM PDT Haven't done the WW1 missions or the Last Maharaja or Jack the Ripper dlc yet but will get to it. Personally I loved the game though my main problem with it is the story mostly how the Twins are handled. I like that Evie having to clean up Jacob's mess after his missions but what bugged me is that there never was one for Evie. If her whole character was to stop being so ridged with her father's teachings and denying all personal attachments then there should have been quests where Evie's actions cause Templars to crack down on allies forcing Jacob to save them. They could have done this when Henry gets captured but instead we get her being pissy while she drives Singh around. Another work around would be the ability to switch between them during missions and giving them more diverse skill trees. Maybe Playing as Jacob decreases Templar presence in a zone but increases their level or amount of snipers in another while Evie would decrease the presence less than Jacob but enemies in other zones would be more lax or something. I'm also a fan of Starrick but he should have been in the game more I mean we only see one clip of him at the beginning then we don't see him till after we kill Elliotson. At least his boss fight was interesting. I actually like the modern plot in this one but what annoys me is that I found out after this game the Juno plot is resolved in the comics and Shaun and Rebecca are just gone. Is the new protagonist for the modern day plots any good or is she like a blander Desmond? Overall since I'm a huge fan of the Victorian era my bias towards this game might be showing but still I feel this game is good. I plan on playing Origins next and might get Odyssey if it's on sale but I may skip it like I did Unity. [link] [comments] | ||
Just starting the first game...some questions? Posted: 28 May 2020 10:49 PM PDT Just started the first game. I'm at the mission where you need to get to Damascus to talk to someone... Am I supposed to go to each viewpoint to complete it and then go? Also, why do the guards care who I am if I ride by peacefully in this section? Isnt this like right near where I live with the assasin's order or is that all top secret even among people who live there? I just killed 2 guards at a viewpoint because they saw me and I couldn't get away. Does it matter? [link] [comments] | ||

Assassin's Creed Syndicate is the worst game of the whole Franchise. Posted: 29 May 2020 01:00 AM PDT I have played all the games in the franchise, from the first to Odyssey and looking forward to Valhalla. I still think that Syndicate is the absolute worse game of the Series. - Boring and forgettable story - Really bad protagonists - Forgettable secondary characters - The whole map is so bland. It's filled with roads and concrete. It has no colors, no flavor, it's always dark, rainy, cloudy... this feels nothing like a great Assassin's Creed setting with beautiful cities, tiled rooftops to parkour on, and memorable places - Grappling hook... Seriously ? - Lack of side activities or side missions - Lack of Swords... I mean, AC without swords. Ok. - Combat is bad - Parkour is a downgrade from Unity, it doesn't feel the same - Too modern for an Assassin's Creed game I guess stealth is the only good thing in this game... [link] [comments] |
