    My Problem with the RPG Assassin's Creed Era

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 02:42 AM PDT

    For a while I have really struggled with the move into RPG for AC. I love Origins, but it never felt like an assassins creed; and I think the reason is, an RPG makes it feel and look LIKE A GAME; whereas before they went for realistic, cinematic feel with slick combat, slick assassinations and big set pieces that felt like you were training all your life for it.

    But now instead with just hack-and-slash, level up system, points on screen for every hit and 'boss battles' (apparent super humans who can repeatedly sustain steel through their flesh) and dialogue choices that leave long unnatural pauses slow down a scene ...etc etc. All this adds to feeling and looking like a game.

    All this i think is the real reason why I can't get behind it. I fell in love with the old AC i think for the immersion into the world as if i could be there. I've always done things in my playstyle to enhance that (i.e. i would never use eagle vision etc), but now with the RPG, it seems it's impossible to have that action adventure feeling i fell in love with.

    I really hope they find their roots again, because at the end of the day, it's those roots that made it such a successful game.

    My fanart of Ezio! Been in an art block but this helped me break through, hope you like it :)

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 03:57 AM PDT

    Haven't played one since Black Flag but I find my self super excited about this new game so here is a drawing I did of the icon (time lapse on my insta of the same name)

    Here’s why I think a sequel to Origins about Aya in Rome would satisfy almost everyone

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 01:18 PM PDT

    Ubisoft can have their massive open world by modelling all of Italy and Sicily.

    The mainline series would return to Italy for the first time since the Ezio trilogy giving a sense of familiarity, but it would be fresh due to the Roman culture and architecture.

    It would also provide a more believable story in-universe because the setup could be that Aya is an ancestor of Desmond and they used the same tech from Black Flag to access the memories after death.

    Because of that, you could bring back the modern day characters we actually like and ditch the Layla story for good.

    The dialogue options could be explained away by the memories being corrupted. All the important story stuff is as seen in history books, but there's more freedom because no-one really knows about the 90% of her life outside those moments. (Although, let's face it, I'd get rid of those completely if given the choice.)

    It would allow for a lot of easter eggs and setups for future games and could serve to show the evolution to the more well known assassins aesthetic from the earlier games.

    It would also allow us to finally have a female main character and to flesh out someone who was shafted by certain executives.

    And we can have Bayak cameo in a side quest. One given the same love and attention as the main quest.

    Modern day assassins/templars in Assassin's Creed

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 08:30 PM PDT

    I was digging around the Ac fandom one day, and I found out that in the AC universe, the templars helped get George W Bush into office by manipulating the electoral college in Florida. There hasn't been much mention of modern day politics, but in the AC universe, which celebrities, politicans, or business owners do you think would be with the brotherhood, and which would be with the templars?

    The next Assassin's Creed game should be a Shao Jun game

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 05:57 PM PDT

    Next gen AC in China with Shao Jun, proper social stealth, progression more like Ghost rather than The Witcher, complex parkour and a focussed story.

    You can do it Ubisoft, and it will sell.

    Imagine the game starting with Shao in China losing her family and the brotherhood falling and then travelling to Italy to find a legendary mentor, and then we get to see embers from her PoV as the prologue.

    And imagine making it a trilogy where she goes to Japan and some other place. She has so much potential and we don't need to keep introducing new hollow characters while promising old ones are left in transmedia cemetery.

    In my opinion this should have been done instead of AC3 but it's not too late. I would love it.

    One major flaw in AC:ODYSSEY

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 10:07 AM PDT

    I get these quests where i need to travel all over the greek world in order to complete it.

    But the rewards are always so bad, just makes me feel like shit when i complete it.

    The story is nice but i want some kind of good reward for spending hours on a specific quest.

    Whats the fucking point giving me a blue helmet for literally traveling all over the big seas.

    I really hope AC: VALHALLA does get this right, proper rewards for quests that take alot of effort.

    ​

    Rant over.

    Just started origins and I like it better than odyssey

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 10:22 PM PDT

    Was not surprised to find that Odyssey is Ubisoft simply copying themselves once again for massive profits. They've been doing it forever. "Hey, everyone loved black flag, let's re-skin the main character and make the exact same game to sell all over again. Everyone really seemed to love Ezio, let's just do that a couple more times."

    Origins seems to have more integrity than Odyssey, it being the first of its kind...the world is much less repetitive and the quests are WAY less boring. The game feels like an actual adventure and not a grindy, tedious, redundant process. I was impressed by oddysey's size when I first started playing it, but as I progressed I got progressively more and more bored with every town looking the exact same, every viewpoint being the top of a temple that looks exactly like the last 10 temples, etc.

    For Valhalla are you guys going to pick the male or female variant?

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 06:51 PM PDT

    I'm going to pick the male variant, mainly because of Thorfinn from Vinland saga. Also did you pick Alexios it Kassandra (I picked Kassandra).

    Why does everyone defend the helix store?

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 06:35 PM PDT

    Its seems like every time I see someone criticize the helix store, there are loads of people who chime it about how its a good addition. Do people really thinks its a good thing? Like what positives does it add? Everything about either constricts content or harm the balance of the game.

    It locks most of the best gear behind a paywall, and its all better than most of what you can find in the game otherwise there'd be no reason to buy it. This would be like having AC2 without Assassins Tombs and just charging $2.99 for the armour of Altair. Why just lets is earn that gear in game?

    It causes the game to be imbalanced with its resources because if you got enough to keep your gear upgraded there'd be no reason to buy the resource packs or boosters.

    People seem to thing that the helix is all just time savers for people who can't invest alot of time, but all those time savers just fix issues artificially added by the devs to get you to pay. The devs don't let you buy a special locations map to make it accessible for people, they removed locations from the in game map to get you to pay for it. They don't sell an exp booster for people who want to progress faster, they throttled exp so they could charge you to unthrottle it. They dont sell OP/Cool looking equipment to make it easy to get, they took it out of the game so they could sell it.

    Literally everything in the helix store could have been in the base game. Gear could be found, maps could be bough from merchants, boosters could be toggled as options. Its not like they need long term monitzation, nothing core to ACOrigind or Odyssey require servers, just Photo sharing (with is kinda pointless considering how easy it is to screenshots anyway) and Story Creator (which can be fun, but isnt worth it if it means we have to deal with a helix store).

    So does anyone have a valid reason for the helix store existing, that doesn't go back to Ubisoft being greedy?

    What Ever Happened To These Commandments?

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 04:37 PM PDT

    10 Commandments

    Version 1.0 – 1.07

    Creative 10 Commandments

    1. Assassin's Creed will always tell the story of the secret war between Assassins and Templars
    2. Being an assassin doesn't make the main character a ruthless killer. He kills, but he has principles and never murders innocents. He avoids collateral damage as much as possible
    3. The war between Assassins and Templars is the foundation of our Franchise story in the past and present.
    4. The Assassin should always be agile, socially skilled, unbeatable with a blade, and a stylish bad-ass.
    5. Pivotal moments in Human History are the basis of our Franchise. Asssassin's Creed will always take a revisionist approach on real events. We'll use historical gaps to create our story.
    6. History should always be portrayed as relevant to our core audience, with facts that tie in to present day common knowledge and edgy modern Art Direction
    7. Assassin's Creed is based on Technology – Nothing is Magical, Everything has a plausible technological explanation.
    8. Assassin's Creed is about digging in a character's past through their DNA in order to understand what really happened in key historical moments.
    9. Since the player relives the deeds of his kin through his DNA, the I.P. cannot be set in the future. DNA of unborn people does not exist.
    10. Assassin's Creed can bend Historical accuracy but cannot create an Uchronia.

    CAN AND CANNOT

    1.06 – Version 1.0

    WHAT CAN'T CHANGE IN THE IP

    The following are immutable elements of the IP. If they are not present, the IP shifts.

    IN GENERAL

    • Historical places and Events.Give a new explanation for historical facts and events. Brings "historical lessons" to the player in a way that's relevant to a modern person
    • Main character silhouette or posture
    • The "static/glimpse" and "limbo" elements

    • Present conspiracy. What the Templars are planning in 2012 and why they are looking for clues in ancestor lives.

      FOR GAMES ONLY

    • Player Fantasy of being an Assassin

    • Animation quality

    • The living world (big scale, living crowd, sense of freedom). Excludes handheld and Wii because we don't want a lesser experience of the same concept. We want a complementary experience that expands the universe. The game design could be totally different.

    • Free run. Excludes handheld and Wii because we don't want a lesser experience of the same concept. We want a complementary experience that expands the universe. The game design could be totally different.

    WHAT COULD CHANGE IN THE NEW ITERATIONS

    • Any other change pending Brand Creative Team Support
    • Time Period
    • Past Main Character
    • The present day locations and secondary characters -The Animus (could/can be upgraded)

    As long as you are delivering on the promise of being an assassin, gameplay can be adapted to media.

    how much of Kassandra's memories did Layla have access to?

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 05:39 PM PDT

    how much of Kassandra's memories did Layla have access to? I know she definitely didn't have access to Kassandra's death, but Layla still had to of had a point in Kassandra's memories where she couldn't relive them any further, I really don't know honestly.

    Opinions on playing AC Origins after finishing Odyssey

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 05:01 PM PDT

    I just finished Odyssey and I absolutely loved it, I liked everything but the thing I most appreciated was Ancient Greece and its characters/buildings/politics. Now I'm thinking about getting Origins but I wanted to understand if it's worse because is older and if the ancient Egypt setting is cool (is it mostly Greek or looks like something African? Are there cool side characters like in odyssey -Sokrates, Barnabas, Alkibiades, Herodotos-?). Also I would like to know if the romans with Caesar are only in a few quests or they are in the whole game.

    I kinda want an Assassin’s Creed that fully takes place in the present day

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 09:52 PM PDT

    We've had small glimpses into the modern day assassin/Templar conflict but I think it would be really cool if we had a game that takes place fully in the modern day and maybe brings together all the modern day elements, from Desmond to Layla

    Really disappointed with what they did with the camera in AC4, compared to AC3?

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 08:38 PM PDT

    In AC3 you could cycle through the gameplay cameras so it'd focus on the immediate, and in AC4 the camera's quite far from the player character. Other than like a traditional camera in game, still of action, what filters would you like to see in a gameplay camera similar to the previous one from AC3 in AC5?

    The Ezio and Cristina Tragic Love Story

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 12:24 PM PDT

    I know I'm 10 years late of playing AC:Brotherhood & recently finished it, but damn those Cristina Missions hit hard. For once in my life never have I cried from a game until the unprecedented happened. In my own opinion, Cristina was Ezio's first AND true love. They were soulmates yet weren't bound for each other. The way Ezio keeps checking up on her even though his life was on the line anytime was real chivalrous. On the other hand, Cristina's unbreakable love for Ezio was out of this world. That necklace she kept for 22 FUCKING years that was given by Ezio really hit me right in my deepest feels. It is so depressing. In addition, Ezio's cherry-on-top, bittersweet, final words to Cristina had made my eyes run like a waterfall. Disheartened, I close my laptop, turn off the lights, lie in my bed thinking and sobbing about their love story. I just want to express to all of you my emotions on this one. So far, AC: Brotherhood is still the game I recently finished in the franchise and I'm about to go next to Revelations. Also, AC: Brotherhood is a very lit game with a very good story. I hope that if there is a fictional heaven, Ezio and Cristina will get their second chance, make love and be happy for each other through all eternity.
