They also do anything to achieve that, from murder to I guess genocide in the context of the crusades. Reaching modern day, the Templars are Abstergo. Same goal, different name. So no not the good guys.
His posturing and mannerisms really do feel unique, disciplined and calculated somehow. All the other assassin's carry themselves in a more aloof manner. Altair is very stiff and he keeps his head down.

@@-MuthuSelvanS Gonna be honest, it's been soo long now dude... it might be a little weird since the game kinda had a janky button configution at the time.
I always liked how this game's Animus had a bit of a dreamlike feel to it. One criticism this game had was the NPCs didn't interact with each other, the beggars only bothering the player, and others having a very minimal presence. From a lore perspective, I think it makes perfect sense: ~This Animus is said to be relatively basic and runs only what is necessary compared to the future Animus models. ~Altair was so focused on his missions that he didn't bother paying attention to the people around him unless they were related to mission (cutscenes) or directly interacted with him (soldiers, beggars, side missions, etc); the one exception could be the criers who shouted loud enough that he simply couldn't ignore their speeches.
I was 24 when this first came out & I just bought it on a whim. Was hooked immediately. I used to switch between AC, Fable, Gears of War & Call of Duty. I wish I could go back to simpler times. Games are going the ways movies & tv shows have gone. We can only reminisce on past amazing content.
I just played ghost of Tsushima and it was the most fun I've had playing a game in ages. There are still some gems. I recommend playing that if you haven't.
It’s really cool hearing some of the other characters voices that are in other games. Some of the novice assassins that you help around each city are voiced by the same guy who did Liam from rogue and the man who’s in the Demascus bureau is the same guy who voices Leonardo Da Vinci
I have such nostalgia for this game. The mood, the atmosphere, the mystery of the story all made me love this game. Personally, I'd love to see AC go back to its roots in those aspects.
ive never had an obsession with any other game as i had with AC. Story, cutscenes, interactive loading screens, graphics, setting ,presentation, free-run, physics, combat, open world.... My teenage mind was blown away when i played it for the first time in 07-08.
1:50:37 was pretty funny when you had to stealthily track down a target, and wait til they were secluded, but then that beggar chick kept getting in the way, so you just ran straight at the guy, and started punching him, and his guards are just standing in the background and slowly walk around you guys, in the middle of the conversation cut scene lol
Altaïr was indeed an Atheist.. he didn't care about the ark of the covenant in Solomon's Temple. Also the crusader era is my favorite That's why this game will always be underrated in my opinion. It's actually so cool that you get to meet, all the great Historical figures like Richard the Lionheart etc... You will fall in love if you like History. Plus, him and Maria were a great duo. I hope they make a remake.
For me, it's the best Assassin, not because of gameplay or anything. Just because there were a lot of memories from childhood with this strong atmosphere of the game :))
Why I loved about this game was that the mecanics weren't that fluid, making it harder to climb or fight, highlighting the primary need of the assassin which is stealth.
The stealth was clunky as well though, absolutely love the game but the guards have 360° vision so you can't sneak up behind them, and half the time there'll be a random drunkard in the way of the assassination (like at the execution in Jerusalem, you need to get to the scholar but if the drunkard flails at you you're done)
@@ethanbotterill2743 Exactly, that's what I meant, the stealth being that hard to achieve is what made it so important. It was clunky indeed but not impossible. In other words, you were the one who had to be stealthy and not the game for you.
Its sad that assassins creed isnt like this anymore. The story of the ancestors, genetic memory, and even desmond got wiped away in favor of first person and then micro transactions and rpg gameplay. I want it to return to this. It gave a far more important feel.
This was quality. This is what gave the AC franchise its name. This game was way way ahead of its time. The maps in this were just unbelievable. Getting lost in the streets of Jerusalem and Damascus was a street. And not mention the gothic vibe in acre ! They truly don’t make games like this anymore.
Assassin’s creed is arguably the best example ever that better graphics does not equal a better game. This will always be an awesome game no matter how many sequels they make just to squeeze out cash.
Right, cause this one wasn't made for cash at all. They made this hoping they would break even and make no profits at all. Ubisoft had no intention of this being a success, their mission was solely to cater to angsty dorks with no friends. 🙄
@@HEagle72 Too bad it was rushed for deadlines also. They were going to do more with it. For example in the opening cinema Altair has a crossbow but its not in the final game. The Templar knights were going to have lootable chest items and money was completely removed form the game even though they beg for money. I wish they just made a new Altair game about some other point in his life. Or a Remaster of the first one with added content. Maybe with all the stuff they originally were gonna do. But the companies changed so much I don't see that happening anytime soon.
@preternatural Care to back that claim up with details? Instead of claiming everything I said is wrong? What part of it is wrong? I also have a claim for you. I don't think you have any idea what your talking about.
@preternatural Wrong they had a deadline and left out features they originally intended to use. They talked about having money since you can pickpocket. Then reduced it to the mission feature because of time restraints. If they removed the crossbow and there was no deadline why not make a new cinema scene at the beginning with no crossbow? I will tell you why... Because it saved time they didn't have. The fact a crossbow exists in the opening is proof of what I am saying is true that ideas were Changed and features were left out. Where's your proof of what I am saying is not true? They removed a crossbow for historical accuracy you say? The crossbow has been around for over thousand years before this game took place haha. If you think crossbows didn't existed back then you need to check up on your history buddy. You don't have any idea what your talking about with your baseless claims.
Always thought it was cool how the Assassin Bureaus in this game are only accessible through the roof. So only trained Assassins should be able to get to them. Also makes me wonder if the shopkeeper has to climb in and out of there every day. 😂
I would imagine they spend most of their time in the HQs. They surely sleep in there. I doubt that this much thought went into the design, but given how important their role is as officiators, they might not even leave to get their own supplies; that errand could be delegated to an initiate.
Fantastic game, I love it so much. Great story, graphics, music, character development and so many more. I truly miss the Desmond era. Altaïr and Ezio are the best. Connor is cool, but AC3 felt buggy at times.
This was when ac was cool, unique, dark and mysterious but ever since they got rid of the original creator it ain’t been the same especially now with the newer games it seems they’ve lost the identity of what made it special
@@ethanrodrigues2868 Unity is decent but it's story is just another version of AC2's which I personally dislike. It's a good build. But takes a lot of factors and cliches from past titles, and doesn't elaborate too much on them. It feels like a watered down AC2 at times. The game itself is amazing however.
Altair made his presence known to us quickly just standing in the crowd watching the gallows in that opening scene. He was going to lay waste. That alone made him the most fierce Assassin in the series.
i remember playing this game when it came out. i instantly fell in love with all that you can do. i was and still am an avid RPG gamer so i was a bit thrown off with the inability to venture into some areas and being stuck until i completed a certain mission, though most RPGs function this way in the beginning. i was not surprised to see how the game then developed into the monstrosity that it became. through its expansion in character development, scenery, and of course the history included i was reeled into every game. watching this play-through takes me back to the basics. how AC should be. yes all the abilities, and gadgets you gain through the series is incredible and quite fun if im being honest here but we cant escape the simplicity you feel when you just climb a building like you see here AC 1 without the fancy gadgets. this is probably why zelda works for fans every time. they hardly change the characters - only how they interact with the objects around them and how they speak with sub characters. in ac, we see too much change i think, with what you can do, how you can do it, how you can look, to how you can experience the game in its entirety. not everyones experience will be the same. thats actually a good thing. a really good thing but when it happens too often, too frequently and for too many divided titles it becomes a race, to the fan, which AC is their favorite. Shouldn't all of them be their favorite if they just didnt change the game so much? i feel thats great in its core but changed too many times, too frequently like we saw, in the fast transitions of bringing us assassins creed games after the ezio series; it seemed as if we were getting a new ac game every year, i hadn't even finished one before being advertised another installment! Though this is a great way to just make money and keep people happy but guess what kingdom hearts fans to zelda fans, how long did we have to wait for a new game? kh3? botw2? Quite some time! yet, every time we weren't disappointed because, leeme tell ya, the wait is worth it! ;]
This was actually one of the first games I ever saw lol, I remember being either 6 or 7 and being over at this kid's house (Yeah, he was around 2 years older than me and was already playing this game), he was with his friends and they were trying to guess what he needed to do next, and one said "The shield on his cape looks like a pizza hahaha". I remember being blown away at how good it looked at the time and being hypnotized by the gameplay. A long time went on before I knew what the game was called until I finally figured it out lol.
I miss the beginning of Gen 7 gaming. The jump between PS2 was PS3 to me feels larger than the jump between PS3 and PS5. It seems like around 2007 to 2009, games were more gritty and immersive. Maybe that is because publishers wanted to capitalize on the abilities of the new consoles. Games today are better-looking graphically but I think they've reached a point where they are too realistic and there is no room to establish a gritty tone.
Yup. I think the jumps between PS1 & PS2 along with the jump between PS2 & PS3 were the biggest ones in terms of visual quality. Everything after that seems pretty incremental. I agree that we are soon reaching a point where game engines will look more real than the best of Hollywood CGI. Give it another decade and VR games would be impossible to distinguish from real worlds.
this game was waaaaaaaay ahead of it's time back then. i remember a colleague gave it to me on a CD and man, was I impressed by the freedom it gave you, and the ideas it had. aaaaaaand now i'm playing Odyssey, where a crowd of 50 greeks at the olympics have all exactly the same face, copypasted xddd
Has anyone ever noticed the same theme music from this game is used in Brotherhood during the Romulus tomb missions. In particular, The sixth day where u obtain a shrunken head.
Since I can't play this game anymore, I'm watching this because I plan on playing the entire main games to get caught up. Thanks for this! I'm excited for this journey ☺️

@@-MuthuSelvanS Gonna be honest, it's been soo long now dude... it might be a little weird since the game kinda had a janky button configution at the time.
Man I really miss Altair
Me too man
Same
Favorite assassin
You mean Altaïr ;)
I love Ezio more
I always liked how this game's Animus had a bit of a dreamlike feel to it.
One criticism this game had was the NPCs didn't interact with each other, the beggars only bothering the player, and others having a very minimal presence. From a lore perspective, I think it makes perfect sense:
~This Animus is said to be relatively basic and runs only what is necessary compared to the future Animus models.
~Altair was so focused on his missions that he didn't bother paying attention to the people around him unless they were related to mission (cutscenes) or directly interacted with him (soldiers, beggars, side missions, etc); the one exception could be the criers who shouted loud enough that he simply couldn't ignore their speeches.
I was 24 when this first came out & I just bought it on a whim. Was hooked immediately. I used to switch between AC, Fable, Gears of War & Call of Duty. I wish I could go back to simpler times. Games are going the ways movies & tv shows have gone. We can only reminisce on past amazing content.
I just played ghost of Tsushima and it was the most fun I've had playing a game in ages. There are still some gems. I recommend playing that if you haven't.
Shit I was 2 😂😂
Eh treyarch call of duty's are still good and I love ghost of Tsushima, spider man and tlou but I think there are less good games now
AC 1 has the best cultural atmosphere.
It’s really cool hearing some of the other characters voices that are in other games. Some of the novice assassins that you help around each city are voiced by the same guy who did Liam from rogue and the man who’s in the Demascus bureau is the same guy who voices Leonardo Da Vinci
i am just now watching this again. last played it 2007. 34 years old now. wow.
hahah yeah its a trip to go back to it
hm
I have such nostalgia for this game. The mood, the atmosphere, the mystery of the story all made me love this game. Personally, I'd love to see AC go back to its roots in those aspects.
We work in the dark to serve the light, we are Assassin’s
Nothing is true, everything is permitted
I did a food review infront of a homeless shelter
Everyone has to admit that the assassins creed trilogy is one of the best action game trilogies ever
Never realized how much of a brat altair was. I like the progression of his character
ive never had an obsession with any other game as i had with AC. Story, cutscenes, interactive loading screens, graphics, setting ,presentation, free-run, physics, combat, open world.... My teenage mind was blown away when i played it for the first time in 07-08.
It’s impressive how good this looks for its time
1:50:37 was pretty funny when you had to stealthily track down a target, and wait til they were secluded, but then that beggar chick kept getting in the way, so you just ran straight at the guy, and started punching him, and his guards are just standing in the background and slowly walk around you guys, in the middle of the conversation cut scene lol
Altaïr was indeed an Atheist.. he didn't care about the ark of the covenant in Solomon's Temple. Also the crusader era is my favorite That's why this game will always be underrated in my opinion. It's actually so cool that you get to meet, all the great Historical figures like Richard the Lionheart etc...
You will fall in love if you like History. Plus, him and Maria were a great duo. I hope they make a remake.
I thought he was Sunni
Most of these assassin's in AC1 are Muslim
There’s rumors that they’ll make a remake, hope it’s true
If we go historically he would be muslim
@preternatural the Assassins were literally a nizari Muslim sect
Damn, I remember playing this when I was 9. Time flies by huh.
same
The sounds bruh
I was 6 turning 7 lmao but my older brother was 9 and he got me into it
how old are you now
You can actually see Altair leaving in the game intro. Off to the left, through the crowd.
Thanks!
Thank you very much.
“Now why would he be in such a rush” - literally everybody
Because they Are Nosey
The only reason I’m watching this is just to understand the story so I can play the Ezio collection
If only Ubi would remaster this...
Wait me too
Oh my god me too
I just got assassin's Creed 3,4and 5 for Nintendo switch and I wish they would add assassin's Creed 1 and 2 to it.
Just... Buy this game and play it. IMO its the best assassins creed game ever
Love this game so much!
16 years ago, a classmate said that this game is so powerful that no computer can run it, time has really flown by...
lul i didnt think abt highend games back then and just started after i bought my first gpu, ati x1650pro from his
actually i kept buying unimportant parts such as ups and psu lmao
prob bcs i only play cm and fm back then, ups not important but was very necessary, i once lost a savegame bcs of it
For me, it's the best Assassin, not because of gameplay or anything. Just because there were a lot of memories from childhood with this strong atmosphere of the game :))
Why I loved about this game was that the mecanics weren't that fluid, making it harder to climb or fight, highlighting the primary need of the assassin which is stealth.
The stealth was clunky as well though, absolutely love the game but the guards have 360° vision so you can't sneak up behind them, and half the time there'll be a random drunkard in the way of the assassination (like at the execution in Jerusalem, you need to get to the scholar but if the drunkard flails at you you're done)
@@ethanbotterill2743 Exactly, that's what I meant, the stealth being that hard to achieve is what made it so important. It was clunky indeed but not impossible. In other words, you were the one who had to be stealthy and not the game for you.

WHO IS HERE IN 2024 WHO IS STILL WACTHING😀💝
Me 🤚assassins creed 1 was so astronomically peak 🔥
I wish I could play it again
Me…
Me
I playing assassin's creed 1 in 2025
Its sad that assassins creed isnt like this anymore. The story of the ancestors, genetic memory, and even desmond got wiped away in favor of first person and then micro transactions and rpg gameplay. I want it to return to this. It gave a far more important feel.
What do you mean by first person?
This was quality. This is what gave the AC franchise its name.
This game was way way ahead of its time.
The maps in this were just unbelievable.
Getting lost in the streets of Jerusalem and Damascus was a street.
And not mention the gothic vibe in acre !
They truly don’t make games like this anymore.
"You have a name, give it to me so we can be done"
"But that's not as fun"
He went from "your presence here deprives me of both" to "your presence here will deliver us both"
Garnier's conversation with Altair is the best
Yes and the ship captain. Forgot his name. He was having an existential crisis and you could see the damage it did to his mental state
Eventhough, I dont play the game I just enjoy the lore /playthrough of assassin creed.
Assassin’s creed is arguably the best example ever that better graphics does not equal a better game.
This will always be an awesome game no matter how many sequels they make just to squeeze out cash.
Right, cause this one wasn't made for cash at all. They made this hoping they would break even and make no profits at all. Ubisoft had no intention of this being a success, their mission was solely to cater to angsty dorks with no friends. 🙄
@@HEagle72 This game was a revolution of open world mechanics.
@@HEagle72 Too bad it was rushed for deadlines also. They were going to do more with it. For example in the opening cinema Altair has a crossbow but its not in the final game. The Templar knights were going to have lootable chest items and money was completely removed form the game even though they beg for money. I wish they just made a new Altair game about some other point in his life. Or a Remaster of the first one with added content. Maybe with all the stuff they originally were gonna do. But the companies changed so much I don't see that happening anytime soon.
@preternatural Care to back that claim up with details? Instead of claiming everything I said is wrong? What part of it is wrong? I also have a claim for you. I don't think you have any idea what your talking about.
@preternatural Wrong they had a deadline and left out features they originally intended to use. They talked about having money since you can pickpocket. Then reduced it to the mission feature because of time restraints. If they removed the crossbow and there was no deadline why not make a new cinema scene at the beginning with no crossbow? I will tell you why... Because it saved time they didn't have. The fact a crossbow exists in the opening is proof of what I am saying is true that ideas were Changed and features were left out. Where's your proof of what I am saying is not true? They removed a crossbow for historical accuracy you say? The crossbow has been around for over thousand years before this game took place haha. If you think crossbows didn't existed back then you need to check up on your history buddy. You don't have any idea what your talking about with your baseless claims.
I always laughed whenever I was running in Masyaf and someone would randomly say, “Is he running from something?”
Because They Was Nosey
I was ten years old when I played this game. I didn't realize how many forgotten memories I had
just played the whole game through (bought them all on steam winter sale) and man
what a game
Always thought it was cool how the Assassin Bureaus in this game are only accessible through the roof. So only trained Assassins should be able to get to them. Also makes me wonder if the shopkeeper has to climb in and out of there every day. 😂
I would imagine they spend most of their time in the HQs. They surely sleep in there. I doubt that this much thought went into the design, but given how important their role is as officiators, they might not even leave to get their own supplies; that errand could be delegated to an initiate.
the one who disliked this masterpiece of a video is a Templar
Sub to my channel as well name damsacus adventures
There are no dislikes tho
Altair is starting his lesson in humility.
Fantastic game, I love it so much. Great story, graphics, music, character development and so many more.
I truly miss the Desmond era. Altaïr and Ezio are the best. Connor is cool, but AC3 felt buggy at times.
This is do true this was when Assasin‘s creed was Assasin‘s creed
U should try unity
This was when ac was cool, unique, dark and mysterious but ever since they got rid of the original creator it ain’t been the same especially now with the newer games it seems they’ve lost the identity of what made it special
@@ethanrodrigues2868 Unity is decent but it's story is just another version of AC2's which I personally dislike. It's a good build. But takes a lot of factors and cliches from past titles, and doesn't elaborate too much on them. It feels like a watered down AC2 at times. The game itself is amazing however.
the only other AC i played apart from the Desmond-Altair-Ezio stories was Odyssey
Haven’t felt like this while playing a game ever since
I know exactly what you mean
Wait so Ubisoft never thought to add Al Mualim’s robes as a legacy?that thing look sick.
The Pilar of what Ubisoft made an Amazing series of games
Never will I forget hearing “SALADIN, AND HIS ARMY OF INFIDELS” every plaza I ran through in this game
Imagine playing all this and realizing it wasn't recording
Welp. Time to play again!
Time To Restart
Altair made his presence known to us quickly just standing in the crowd watching the gallows in that opening scene. He was going to lay waste. That alone made him the most fierce Assassin in the series.
i remember playing this game when it came out. i instantly fell in love with all that you can do. i was and still am an avid RPG gamer so i was a bit thrown off with the inability to venture into some areas and being stuck until i completed a certain mission, though most RPGs function this way in the beginning.
i was not surprised to see how the game then developed into the monstrosity that it became.
through its expansion in character development, scenery, and of course the history included i was reeled into every game.
watching this play-through takes me back to the basics.
how AC should be. yes all the abilities, and gadgets you gain through the series is incredible and quite fun if im being honest here but we cant escape the simplicity you feel when you just climb a building like you see here AC 1 without the fancy gadgets.
this is probably why zelda works for fans every time. they hardly change the characters - only how they interact with the objects around them and how they speak with sub characters.
in ac, we see too much change i think, with what you can do, how you can do it, how you can look, to how you can experience the game in its entirety. not everyones experience will be the same. thats actually a good thing. a really good thing but when it happens too often, too frequently and for too many divided titles it becomes a race, to the fan, which AC is their favorite. Shouldn't all of them be their favorite if they just didnt change the game so much?
i feel thats great in its core but changed too many times, too frequently like we saw, in the fast transitions of bringing us assassins creed games after the ezio series; it seemed as if we were getting a new ac game every year, i hadn't even finished one before being advertised another installment!
Though this is a great way to just make money and keep people happy but guess what kingdom hearts fans to zelda fans, how long did we have to wait for a new game? kh3? botw2?
Quite some time! yet, every time we weren't disappointed because, leeme tell ya, the wait is worth it! ;]
Seeing this takes me back to when the game was first released in 2007. Man time flies.
Everything always felt more important and moments gave the impression that they would have a lot of impact in some way in the older ac games
Your skill on Assassin Creed games are crazy!
This was actually one of the first games I ever saw lol, I remember being either 6 or 7 and being over at this kid's house (Yeah, he was around 2 years older than me and was already playing this game), he was with his friends and they were trying to guess what he needed to do next, and one said "The shield on his cape looks like a pizza hahaha". I remember being blown away at how good it looked at the time and being hypnotized by the gameplay. A long time went on before I knew what the game was called until I finally figured it out lol.
This is the best childhood game ive ever played
I miss the beginning of Gen 7 gaming. The jump between PS2 was PS3 to me feels larger than the jump between PS3 and PS5. It seems like around 2007 to 2009, games were more gritty and immersive. Maybe that is because publishers wanted to capitalize on the abilities of the new consoles. Games today are better-looking graphically but I think they've reached a point where they are too realistic and there is no room to establish a gritty tone.
Yup. I think the jumps between PS1 & PS2 along with the jump between PS2 & PS3 were the biggest ones in terms of visual quality. Everything after that seems pretty incremental. I agree that we are soon reaching a point where game engines will look more real than the best of Hollywood CGI. Give it another decade and VR games would be impossible to distinguish from real worlds.
Just completed the game! Thank you the end part I couldn’t figure out what do to.
4weeks spent on this epic game!! The best game.
What system you played it on?
Just ended it. The fact that it was released in 2007 surprises me enough. The graphics, gameplay and story was way ahead of its time.
Just finish the game right now and i follow this walkthrough
“Never got hit”
Altair at the beginning of his game: *gets flung through some construction*
this game was waaaaaaaay ahead of it's time back then. i remember a colleague gave it to me on a CD and man, was I impressed by the freedom it gave you, and the ideas it had.
aaaaaaand now i'm playing Odyssey, where a crowd of 50 greeks at the olympics have all exactly the same face, copypasted xddd
Here from playing my very first AC game, Odyssey. I want to watch all gameplays of every AC. I want a better understanding of the games 🖤
Has anyone ever noticed the same theme music from this game is used in Brotherhood during the Romulus tomb missions. In particular, The sixth day where u obtain a shrunken head.
I played this when I was 20. I had a ps3 late but this game first three trilogy’s hit home with me
Since I can't play this game anymore, I'm watching this because I plan on playing the entire main games to get caught up. Thanks for this! I'm excited for this journey ☺️
Damn this game was out in 2007, good times flies
The writing of this game is much better than I remember. I remember being fascinated as a 10 year old kid back in 2007, and now I understand why.
Is there a story behind Lucy’s horrible trauma based backstory or was that just a canon event they wanted to
Quite an experience this game was the first time playing it.
As a history buff, this series hits the spot
