      I remember going hunting with my dad in 2009. I was 15 years old, and the whole time I was in that tree stand, I knew my mother had picked up my AC 2 preorder in it’s beautiful tin case and everything, but it was at home. My dad couldn’t understand why I wanted to go home so badly, so I educated him on assassins creed in the middle of the woods and in turn he wanted to see the game. So we both rushed home to play. That was a great day. ❤

      @FlyingGospel Před 7 měsíci +5

      Revelations was disliked but it's the best AC game in terms of story and narrative by a long shot. It's my favorite AC game ever for this reason. It ended Ezio's trilogy perfectly. Ezio is a stupid, proud, vain teenager when we're introduced to him, and when he leaves us he's grown into a highly wise old man. It's rare we get to see a character grow and change and mature over his entire life like that.

    I know the series gets clowned on a lot these days, but I have a lot of fond memories pre Assassins Creed Origins. I use to always get the new assassins creed for Christmas growing up and would play through each of the games right before Christmas in order to build anticipation and excitement. After playing Syndicate, I gave up on that tradition since I was seriously burnt out at that point, plus there were just too many AC games by then. AC2 was some of the most fun I had playing a new assassin’s creed for the first time. I was very interested in colonial history, so AC3 really drew me in on my first play through. Although looking back, the gameplay was very rough around the edges. AC4 was one where I did not enjoy it the first time, but after my second play through it turned into one of my favorites. I would say Unity was the last Assassins Creed I played where I really felt that new assassins creed game hype. Syndicate was good but I was burnt out from the series by that point.

    • @eternalglow6483
      @eternalglow6483 Před 7 měsíci

      Ive played every AC game and I think Odyssey might be the worst game in the series in my opinion. The main characters are extremely bland, the story is super predictable, being able to climb literally anything in the game makes it way too easy and makes you play on autopilot, the skill tree is a literal instant headache, the open world is insanely empty and uninspiring like I genuinely think the game falls short in every way. Mirage is a perfect example of how an AC game should be. Smaller map, immensely detailed, great AI, great stealth, brought back the traditional hidden ones story, awe inspiring soundtrack that melts your ears, no RPG witcher 3 clone knock off lol

      ​@@eternalglow6483you've played all AC games and you think Odyssey is worse than Valhalla? As for being able to climb almost everywhere and the empty open world, that started with Origins. Yes, Odyssey can be repetitive, but so is Origins. Origins doesn't even have armor customization, while Odyssey has a huge variety of armors. Odyssey also has better conversation animations and camera angles. I'm not saying Origins is bad. But I just don't understand why Odyssey is hated while Origins is loved. I don't accept the "Odyssey is not an AC game" argument. If it's good, it's good.

    I'm glad that you gave props to Syndicate. It gets so much shit, and while it does have its flaws, it's a beautiful game. When it came out, i didn't really watch or follow any gaming channels nor did i watch reviews, so i went into it completely unbiased and without any previously formed opinions, influences and information, and i absolutely loved it.
    The setting, the new additions to the formula, graphics with so many little details placed into the game. Heck, i can still hear the sound of Evie's shoes tapping on the glass as you run across the train station rooftops. One of my favorite moments was also searching for the music boxes by figuring out where the location is, just by viewing a picture that shows tiny bit of landmarks, which ends up with you running all over the city that seemed so lived in and taking in all the sights that it has to offer.
    Syndicate, Black Flag and AC2 will always be my favorites when it comes to the series.

AC revelations will always be one of the greatest AC games. The theme is so nostalgic for me and I loved the story and how it was the final chapter in ezios life and getting to see altair and all that.

I had never experienced something so great, the world was so full then the story took me back as I was only a teenager so there was so much content for the time then I pretty much started my love for AC then.

    Thank you for refreshing my memory with one of the franchise that I used to love. I pretty much agree about AC Syndicate, it's not the best in terms of story and AC lore, but I think it's the most fun. We can ride and steal cart, getting other gang to chase us, etc.. Man I miss those time lol

    I still remember the day AC2 came out , I was maybe 13 browsing the games looking for it and someone’s mom was there too and starting asking me questions about it saying her son was looking for a certain game . I was like oh yeah that AC . I remember thinking I hope whoever she got it for enjoyed it how I did . I might have beating that day or the next day and man that ending of Minerva speaking too Desmond floored me and I was left waiting for more just like AC 1

Odyssey i was really enjoying too until my data got corrupt half way through haha, i have to replay that one some day

      Man the moment they revealed it was going to be during the American revolution. It’s only real downfall was I think how it ended Desmond but still let the ‘story’ proceed and just become crazy and eventually b lined totally. Took awhile to get into it but it was such a nice change from Ezio

  • @TheEngwall

    I played AC2 and Brotherhood back in 2013. Right when I was playing Brotherhood, my gf and I went down to Rome! History buff as I am I had a period when I was studying the history of the Roman Empire. She bought me a tour around the Colosseum, Palatine Hill and the Forum for my birthday, and we spent a lot of days just walking around the city, which I fell in love with. I can say this to everyone that hasn't been there; Yes! Colosseum really is as big as they show it in AC Brotherhood!
    After being there for a few days, we went up to Florence. My God, what a beautiful city!
    And I went "see that building? I've climbed it" everywhere we went😂
    That's 10 years ago now, and no trip has ever beaten that trip to Italy! I'm looking to going back there one of these days.

    This was my favorite game as a kid. I couldn't wait for the next AC to progress through the story. I thought I would be playing this series forever and sharing the AC journey with my future kids. However that didn't happen because Ubisoft got greedy.

    I still remember picking up 1 in 08. Like everyone else i was vlown away but it took me a while to love it. I moved from 3 to Origins but went back to the ones i missed in the last 2 years and it's a lot of fun still.
    I miss Desmond. Will the modern day war ever happen?

  • @LKRTM
    @LKRTM Před 7 měsíci

    I started playing AC3 a few days ago as I only played through it once back when it was released, whereas I've played every other classic style AC game at least twice. Coming from recently playing Odyssey and Valhalla before that, I forget just how much parkour has been pushed aside. It's just a minor thing, but in Assassins Creed 3 I've actually found myself stopping, and looking for the best path to take to avoid guards, move as efficiently as possible, and collect things in-between my destination. Rock faces and cliffs are actually obstacles you need to think about, and while I didn't like it back in the day, the use of trees is really cool.
    100 hours of Odyssey, 250 on Valhalla and 50 hours on Origins made me completely forget there was a time where you had to think about the parkour system, I'm that used to just running in a straight line to the objective marker and nothing stops me besides the open ocean that parkour became sort of a joke, and that's before getting into how towns are designed without parkour in mind now (Valhalla being the worst offender, where I didn't feel like I was doing anything remotely Assassin like until I reached Paris in the DLC.... 200 hours in).
    Only maybe halfway through AC3, but it's shot right up in my list, not quite the Ezio trilogy but it retains that feel better than anything after it, besides maybe Unity.

    To your point about the present day stuff in ac 4 black flag being about Abstergo using the animus to make movies, i think it’s explained that it was really just a front for the Templars secret mission to find old Isu locations and artefacts like the observatory in black flag.

  • @BrotherKnowledge.
    @BrotherKnowledge. Před 7 měsíci +1

    I am *BEYOND surprised* that you enjoyed Assassin's Creed 3. I did *NOT* see that coming.
    Respect.
    The Assassin's Creed franchise is, hands down, my most favorite game franchise of all time. I can wax poetic about it for HOURS!! Never once have I ever experience fatigue with this series before. And I've played them more than most.
    I discovered Assassin's Creed a few months before Assassin's Creed 3 came out. I was in a GameStop when a commercial for Assassin's Creed 3 dropped and I was in awe. "How did I mever hear about this series?!" I thought to myself. I bought the first game, used, at GameStop right then and there. And went hime to play it.
    I thoroughly enjoyed the first one. But I didn't love it. Yet, once I completed it, the ending made me extremely excited to see what happened next.
    Assassin's Creed 2, as it turns out, my wife already owned on her PS3. (I played on the Xbox 360.) I hopped on her PS3 and played Assassin's Creed 2 and was *BLOWN AWAY!!!* So much so that when I finished it, I went and got another copy for the Xbox 360 and played it again!
    Then I got to Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. And, maaaaaaan... look. To me, the quality gap between AC1 and AC2 was the same as the gap between AC2 and AC Brotherhood!! I absolutely *LOVED* that game!!
    Then I immediately hopped into Assassin's Creed Revelations. And loved that one to pieces. I koved it more than AC Brotherhood, but not by much. Of the Ezio trilogy, Revelations is my favorite entry.
    And then, what I had been waiting for this entire time, my coup de grâce, Assassin's Creed 3.
    I fell head-over-heels in love with that game. *Ratonhnhaké:ton INSTANTLY became my favorite Assassin!!* His story was just so thrilling to me. And the COMBAT!! Oh, my god, the co.bat was just *exhilarating!!!* And to top it off, this game had an expansion DLC that was also so gotdamn hood, too!!
    From then on, I would replay ever Assassin's Creed game every year before the next one dropped; typically starting in the summer. So before Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag came out, I replayed 1, 2, Brotherhood, Revelations, and 3. And before AC Rogue and Unity came out, I played 1-4 first. Before Syndicate dropped, I replayed AC1 through Unity first. And did it again with Assassin's Creed Origins. (Stopped there because it the replays of all of those games became too time consuming, and my backlog started building up animosity against me. 😬)
    Never got tired of the franchise. *Never* got burned out.
    I played Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag next. I liked it a lot, but I did not kove it. I didn't like Edward Kenway, and I did not love the pirate story. I just liked it. I saw it as the weakest story of the series thus far. (And still do till this day, actually.) But it was still a fun game. And I did genuinely like it.
    &But AC4's expansion, Freedom Cry, made AC4:BF completely worth it to me!! I absolutely *LOVED that story!!!* So much so that I had to separate Freedom Cry from Black Flag and make that my second-favorite (third-favorite after AC Rogue came out) entry of the series. Had it been longer, it would have been higher up on that list.
    Assassin's Creed Rogue was a surprise hit to me. Without being prepared, it became my second-favorite entry. Hands down. Absolutely loved it.
    Assassin's Creed Unity was... great. I liked it a whole lot, but didn't care for the love story.... the first time I played it. It grew on me in subsequent playthroughs and now I really like it.
    But what *REALLY MADE THE GAME GREAT TO ME* was the Co-Op gameplay!!! I am a HUGE Co-Op fan, so fombining my favorite style of gameplay to my favorite franchise sent me to heaven! Till this DAY, Assassin's Creed Unity has, for me. The highest fun factor of all of the franchise.
    Assassin's Creed Syndicate took me for a ride. By this point, I expected a miss by Ubisoft. But, NOPE!! They delivered to me yet again!! God, I loved thos game so damn much!
    Assassin's Creed Origins stepped in and showed OUT!! It was everything that I wanted minus Co-Op gameplay. 😂 Till this very day, it remains not only my most favorites Assassin's Creed game of all time, but my most favorite game of the 8th Console Generation. (Yep. It even beats out The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, putting that game in wnd place for me.)
    Assassin's Creed Odyssey was really. Really good. I loved it. Not as much as some other entries, but I DID indeed love the game.
    Then there was Assassin's Creed Valhalla. The only Assassin's Creed game I put off for a year plus due to the game being about Vikings. A group I have absolutely zero interest in. But, as a fan, eventually I did get around to it. I liked it. But did not love it. And I likely won't be playing that game ever again.
    Haven't played Assassin's Creed Mirage yet. But as it focuses on Basim, a character I am not interedyed in, that game is going on the backburner for other games that I al looking forward to this month instead. But I will get to it soon. Specifically, after I finish woth Spider-Man 2.
    Alright. That was a bit much. Seriously doubt you will see this. And even if you do, definiteky doubt you will real ALL of this. But just in case you do, thanks for reading all of this.
    Game on!

    Man I had just got into assassins creed when I saw the trailers for AC3 it was the first time for me seeing those robes and the brooding cold ass killing machine of an assassin and me being Native American it was super fucking cool to see and I was obsessed with American colonial history everything just fell into place for me with this game I had no preconceived notions or expectations I had never played a AC game before that and almost everything about it was a hook line sinker for me and even after all these years I think it still has the hardest title drop of them all it’s not the best game overall but it is one of my personal favorites

    I remember as a kid my sister getting AC1 in 2007 when i was 10. I played it a ton, died a ton because I'd just spam the attack button rather than the counter and i never made it to the end. AC1 feels extremely unique of a game compared to the rest of them. I cant put my finger on it. But it just feels different. I did eventually beat it years later. Only once though. And i gotta say whatever city had long lines of people going into and out of the city, i loved pushing them all over by riding my horse through them all. 😂. I still love it.
