MattOmniHeart But that would make the interview far more boring, don't you think? Besides, they're gonna do make more vids about Odyssey before the game is released, so I don't think your questions are gonna be left unanswered.
@@dukemakaveli Though there were other fun games. I personally liked 3 and Edward was a good character. Thought they turned the corner with Bayek. But yes what really made assassins creed what it was ended with ezio.
@@NerevarOfficialReal I actually enjoyed that. The way I see it as that you are a guy in a hood who has been going around all of Italy killing important figures for twenty years. Guards should be constantly after you. Made it more realistic and made me try to be more stealthy. Plus it looked awesome.
Yes which most certainly means that it's a templar origin story, cuz if you don't have the brotherhood then what else do you got? The Templars thats what.
Fans for one whole decade: “hey since this is a historical series based on stealth, combat, and assassinations we’d love to see feudal Japan.” Ubisoft: “nah.”
The Rune King of Asgard with how they changred the gameplay of ac, scandinavia would be a better setting than japan. They shouldve not name origins and this assassins creed.
I really like the new direction they're taking with Assassin's Creed. The past games didn't keep me playing at all, but Origins? Duuuude, that's like crack to me. Totally addicted.
O Caçador well font hold your breathe, a lot has changed even from origins to this. It wasn't the same people who made the games and this was already in development. So aaaall the good stuff we liked in Origins they didn't get before hand so its most likely changed.
Well he confirmed that the combat system is exactly the same, they just added some tweaks like special combo moves and stuff like that, so I'm fine with it so far. Also, there were times in Origins where I wish there were multiple dialogue options, so I'm glad they're going full RPG with this.
I do, having a cohesive narrative, having no grinding, having meaningful choices, have likable characters, having an open world filled with good content, not being overly long, being a Bayek sequel, having something to do with Assassins Creed, and not having any micro transactions.
@@k1w1_yeswhat is bro saying, 😂 they aren’t assassins they are mercenaries, odyssey has none of the assassin ideology and shits on the lore, having mid open world gameplay and copy and paste rpg elements you’ve seen done better 1000 times in other games, does not make it Assassins-creed
Ronin are masterless samurai that doesn’t make sense for an assassins creed game because the samurai despised what ninjas did it was considered dishonorable.
@@kingjamestres wrong. Ninjas were the secret service of the era. They were mostly spies. Rarely took up assassinations. After the Sengoku Jidai period ended they just turned into night police. Real ninja have nearly nothing to do with the stuff we all watch on TV and other media.
Jerry Jerri No the Spartans didn’t have an honor code on that level. What mattered was what you did to bring glory to your family and country. It didn’t matter how your enemy died as long as he died.
Agreed, then they should finish off with a Roman Empire set game. I know they’ve already been to Rome, but it would be much different than 16th century Rome
I wanna thank him for making this great game.. my life changed for the positive since i started gaming 2 years ago , and without games like that i wouldnt be gaming
Funny how people are insulted by the fact that the game's fundamentals are changing. I personally am pleased by the modernization they are going for. RPG’s are cool and so is assassins creed :)
Ghost of Tsushima will beat them to it im afraid then everyone will be comparing AC Japan to Ghost and I think it will hurt Ubi I could be wrong though
Cat People documentarys In Assassin's Creed 1, there were roughly 500 flags as collectibles. You gained nothing except achievements. In AC2, there were only 100 feathers but they were still well hidden
Back before origins I tried to get into Assassins creed, I wasn’t a huge fan of the other games but origins made me love the series. So excited for this game.
I know this sounds like a dumb question, but will the choice to side with either the Spartans or Athenians affect the outcome of the war? I mean, it’s pretty set in stone that Sparta won, Athens lost, but learning that there are multiple endings, and that you can side with a faction destined to lose, makes me curious about how they’re going to deal with that in the game.
No it will not. No historically documented event will be altered. The war was very long (10 years), and the game happens close to the start of it - We'll probably not see the end of the war during the events of the game.
They should do, Feudal Japan - Ancient Rome - Dynasty China - Medieval Vikings - Medieval India - Genghis Kahn’s Monggol Empire - Dynasty Korea - Xerxes’ Persia where each era has their own mythological quirks and creatures
@@gravynavy516 No, hire some kpop singers and/or kdrama actors to be the actors and voice actors of new Assassin's Creed game based in Medieval/Classical Korea and tons and tons of Kpop and Kdrama fanatics will buy the game just to support their idols

gee gee Because the only reason people want a game set in Japan is that fact that they had ninjas. It takes two brain cells to make that comparison. That’s why I called it a low hanging fruit. AC Japan is a game you make when you’ve run out of ideas and go “ fuck it let’s do ninja assassins”.
You never played Saints Row 2. They took so much out of the third like they're going to take out of Odyssey as well. Saints Row 2 is for the more mature fans
Personally, i’m not a big fan of level gates the way they were handled in Origins & now this game w/ them being applicable to specific regions. There’s definitely pros & cons but i would prefer just exploring from the start & not be in for a near unplayable time without spending time getting to the required level It also made the campaign feel disjointed imo, as i had to do side missions occasionally to get to a certain level before proceeding
quan thai true, i just feel like it limits some of the exploration early on as opposed to other more open ended games...instead of just hopping in the ship & exploring islands, i have to grind levels or it will be not fun at all
It could work if they make level more felxible this time, like you can be 2-3 level below your enemy and can still fight them(with more but not impossible difficulty). The level gates also help in exploration game that it limite you to just go anywhere right out of the gate, and making you have to work your way there to feel like you earn it.
+Dan B When asked the guy answered that each area has a level. They display this to the player so they are aware of the recommended level. Unless they've changed this system from Black Flag, Rogue, Unity, Syndicate and Origins it's almost certain you'll be able to enter those areas and start those quests even if your level is too low. The consequence for that is you'll get your ass kicked.
I actually really like that each region had it's own level cap, I feel like a lot of players try to rush too fast and explore all the regions without considering the fact that they might be killed in one hit from an enemy in that particular area. So the level cap tells the player beforehand what level they need to be evenly matched against an opponent
The only thing I didn't like about Origins was forcing you to do side quests in order to have a high enough level to progress with the story. Let side quests be side quests. Even in The Witcher 3 you didn't have to complete them and you could totally focus on the main story.
I guess its more, do the side quests becuase they are easier and "at your characters level" or go for the main story all the way through and have to be a boss and fight super hard stuff
_How politically correct the game will be?_ Probably the most important question because Ancient Greece was pretty controversial by today's standards. Also _Can we climb Mount Olympus and go through idk portal to see greek gods? Or visit tartar?_
As a huge Ancient Greece nerd, the point you made is exactly why I’m not interested in this game. I’m not boycotting it, i wish them all the best, but without the gritty violence, sexual promiscuity, and politically incorrect ideologies, Ancient Greece just isn’t the same. The OG God of War trilogy did a pretty good job capturing that vibe
Randy Marsh If you all want dumb and mindless nudity and violence you can go and watch Game of Thrones but not buying a game because it *maybe* won't have any of those things in it and isn't actually known to feature it heavily is stupid.
+Spencer RIcker It seems at least to me clear that in this game they want you to feel like a demigod. You can leap dozens of metres through the air and other inhuman physical feats, kick people into next week, have magical powers and canonically take down entire armies by yourself. Seems clear they wanted the story and the combat to feel this way because this is their first entry into the RPG genre and being a demigod is a trope of the genre.
+Clueless I don't think engine limitations and hardware of 2007-2010 had any negative impact on how 'powerful' they were able to make Ezio feel. just look At Prince of Persia Two thrones from ubisoft, when they want a character to feel superhuman they could absolutely represent that at the time.
Well this video made me feel like multiplayer is never returning. Which sucks. I had hope it would return for so long but given how he shut it down it just doesn't seem likely anymore. I'm still excited for Odyssey and think it'll be a great game but I really miss multiplayer.
this is a brilliant format for interviews to get players a lot of information. but you guys do WAY too many throw away joke questions when there are still plenty of good questions you coulda asked: in new game+ can you switch protagonists? will the animus control panel be returning? can you become high enough level to max out every skill? is either character confirmed as canonical in the overall AC story line? will there be an explanation for why you can make choices even though your'e supposed to be viewing history? will we be spending much time in the present day outside of the animus? etc etc lots of opportunity to get a bunch of answers to a bunch of little questions but instead you have to go for "when was the last time you climbed something in real life?" come on now. fantastic idea it just could be better executed. every time i watch these im both impressed and disappointed.
Saif Ahmed this interview seemed to try and be 50% for info and 50% for laughs, and in that regard - they succeeded. However most of your questions a really good and i wish they thought about them as well. P.s. cassandra is cannonical, afaik.
+Saif Ahmed I have a simple answer to your animus question. It's a video game, if the playing experience can benefit from either the player's story not being totally canon or plot holes it's worth it. They believe and I believe with them that adding RPG elements should improve the archetype that was Origins. Hopefully this will enhance the quality of the side quests, increase investment in dialogue for those who might not have been as interested in a lot of the dialogue last time, add some actual stakes to the often monotonous tasks present in Ubisoft games and give everyone the joy of building their own story where they can look back at the end and say 'wow look how everything's changed because I did this and I did that'. I'm biased as hell though because I love RPGs and while I did have fun with origins I found a lot of the crafted activities were not substantially improved enough in quality when compared to the side content back in AC2 and very similar to the side content in Unity. Really including rpg elements like branching narratives and character reputation systems should be incentive for Ubisoft to actually really think about the actual quest and objective design or 'gameplay'...now unfortunately I don't imagine this happening, I think we're going to see a repeat of Origins but with dialogue sequences at the start and end of quests and actual consequences hopefully that's enough to make playing them more interesting.
7dayspking i wholeheartedly agree that gameplay should come first. Screw the lore. And if any franchise can mess with the lore yet still find some awquard way of claiming its kinda canon its AC. Besides the hidieous voice acting - im all for what theyre trying to do.
9:52-10:02 Of course it needs to be tied to the assassin's order to be an assassins creed game! The order and the characters within it are what made the series!.
Miles is an Assassin, and it's likely Layla will join their ranks as well; Templars and Isu are also a huge part of the lore and will probably have a bigger focus in this game then in any previous game.
I'm start to thinking that we will play as a templar the whole game. The way he answered the questions about being a templars origin history really gives it out, it will be like Rogue
I love those rapid fire interviews. Brian Itahar's interview (Spider-Man) was the best so far. Unfortunately I couldn't care less about Assassins Creed.
I hear we can kill sharks... which means there are sharks. I’m hyped!!!! Edit: YOU CANT PET EVERY DOG??? Wtf?? Also bummed at the lack of character customization a bit
Why does he look like he's forced to be there? lol i remember when Ashraf was doing marketing for Origins you could tell from the way he spoke during interviews and how he interacted with other's in social media that he actually cares for the game, while this dude is like idc im just doing my job doesn't necessarily mean that i love it tho, or something of the sorts you could tell that this game wasn't made with a ton of love from the developers which surely will reflect on the quality of the game.
0:10 "Dolphins and whales no because you're not a maniac" Except you allowed us to do it before in Black Flag not because you were a maniac but because that was part of culture back then. Because it was historically accurate. Remember when we paid attention to that, guys? I'm allowed to be salty, we're talking about the sea.
Finally I have the answer to everything! "No comment", for if this games gonna be a Templar origin story. It's a Templar origin story, now I must get the game to receive all of the information.
This was one of the greatest interviews ive ever seen. I cant wait to sail to feudal Japan and pet their dogs. To the question of what the best AC game is though, you both pronounced Black Flag wrong.
O don't know how i feel about this being set before AC Origins plus i don't this about many games but this looks shockingly similar to origins and Origins was my GOTY last year, I hope Odyssey delivers.
Bayek should've got his own trilogy. But, this sounds amazing. I've always wanted AC to become full open-world RPG and i'm hyped for this. I'm just wondering if this could be the origins od Templar order. The begining of their story.
Big choices in AC? It was supposed to be a linear story, something that already happened and now it's like a movie like old ACs. And they should return good old eagle vision and a bunch of other mechanics that you threw out in Origins in the next game. AND MAKE IT IN FEUDAL JAPAN FFS! Ok they don't have to make next one in feudal Japan but it would be awesome if they did
Toe Nail What the fuck are you talking about? Not only I didn't want the huge changes in Origins but I was disapointed at Ubisoft for other type of Eagle vision in Unity... When I played Origins I was like this is a good game but it isn't AC, I didn't want even minor changes in AC, I wanted everything to stay same
Jovan Kovacevic nothing is the same anymore i wouldn't even call this in ac game it just isnt we can debate mechanics & or gameplay all we want but old genuine assasins creed games are dead now what people want are 'ooh can we go here, lets keep going back in time' etc etc. Nothing is connected anymore we will never get what ezio got & that was an understandabe stable story that connected into MORE then one single story game.
"you can't hunt whales or dolphins because you aren't a maniac"
Did he just call kenway a maniac?
Mohib Ali Who?
Alan Garcia Edward kenway from AC4
Mohib Ali Oh yeah. I don't think that character is interesting enough to be considered a maniac. Maniacs aren't boring.
Alan Garcia Edward is one of the best AC characters. Far from boring. Connor is boring. Arno is boring. Evie is boring. Eddie is not.
Shisha CEO I agree he's one of the best AC characters. I also don't think that's saying much. Whatevs, to each their own.

You're a mercenary who can work for both sides so I think it will affect a sub plotline but not the historical event.

The only thing that's missing are subtitles. 9,99/10 video.
Saints Row the Third was my favorite in the franchise. Yeah, i said it!!
a Washington Mine too.
You never played Saints Row 2. They took so much out of the third like they're going to take out of Odyssey as well. Saints Row 2 is for the more mature fans
Good job Jeff. These interviews are always worth watching.
Personally, i’m not a big fan of level gates the way they were handled in Origins & now this game w/ them being applicable to specific regions. There’s definitely pros & cons but i would prefer just exploring from the start & not be in for a near unplayable time without spending time getting to the required level
It also made the campaign feel disjointed imo, as i had to do side missions occasionally to get to a certain level before proceeding
if u did play AC origin i dont think you really care much about the level gate because its designed tie to your progression in the story already
quan thai true, i just feel like it limits some of the exploration early on as opposed to other more open ended games...instead of just hopping in the ship & exploring islands, i have to grind levels or it will be not fun at all
It could work if they make level more felxible this time, like you can be 2-3 level below your enemy and can still fight them(with more but not impossible difficulty). The level gates also help in exploration game that it limite you to just go anywhere right out of the gate, and making you have to work your way there to feel like you earn it.
+Dan B When asked the guy answered that each area has a level. They display this to the player so they are aware of the recommended level. Unless they've changed this system from Black Flag, Rogue, Unity, Syndicate and Origins it's almost certain you'll be able to enter those areas and start those quests even if your level is too low. The consequence for that is you'll get your ass kicked.
I actually really like that each region had it's own level cap, I feel like a lot of players try to rush too fast and explore all the regions without considering the fact that they might be killed in one hit from an enemy in that particular area. So the level cap tells the player beforehand what level they need to be evenly matched against an opponent
This has become my favorite video series on Gameinformer's TH-cam channel
Boy, can't wait to see that trophy list. 😂
“What’s at the edge of the world?”
Zooms in
“Imagination”
U copied me but thats cool
Assassins Creed -Fish confirmed.
Jolly interview. Really dug Origins, but honestly am looking forward to this setting a bit more. Such a packed fall!
let's hope that stupid Yellow-Golden Effect when you Fight could be Turned OFF..
I freaking love these videos! Please keep them going. They are so informative and funny as hell!
The only thing I didn't like about Origins was forcing you to do side quests in order to have a high enough level to progress with the story. Let side quests be side quests. Even in The Witcher 3 you didn't have to complete them and you could totally focus on the main story.
You pretty much missed the entire Witcher 3 game if you did that though.
Yeah, you miss a lot. But when I replay a game, I skip all the sidequests.
I guess its more, do the side quests becuase they are easier and "at your characters level" or go for the main story all the way through and have to be a boss and fight super hard stuff
There was and option in Origins to get XP and level up,you just had to run around and kill like a zillion Romans with head shots.
This has to be the most awesome interview I have ever watched.
_How politically correct the game will be?_ Probably the most important question because Ancient Greece was pretty controversial by today's standards.
Also _Can we climb Mount Olympus and go through idk portal to see greek gods? Or visit tartar?_
쯔위-ah Holy moly that's a nice idea
And you also can play government simulator at the end of the game how fun
As a huge Ancient Greece nerd, the point you made is exactly why I’m not interested in this game. I’m not boycotting it, i wish them all the best, but without the gritty violence, sexual promiscuity, and politically incorrect ideologies, Ancient Greece just isn’t the same. The OG God of War trilogy did a pretty good job capturing that vibe
Nonchalant1996
A pretty stupid reason not to buy a game tbh.
Randy Marsh
If you all want dumb and mindless nudity and violence you can go and watch Game of Thrones but not buying a game because it *maybe* won't have any of those things in it and isn't actually known to feature it heavily is stupid.
when he said "we'll see" about kassandra and alexios being in the same world at the same time got me hyped for no reason
skipping out on multiplayer to focus on single player! thank u
Hey, I did a spartan race last weekend! Weird coincidence.
Also, these are my favorite types of interviews you guys do, thanks
Bayek would destroy every other protagonist except maaaybe Connor. Maybe. Kassandra would be destroyed
That would not be HER. In pure hand-to-hand Bayek would easily decimate everybody but Connor and Edward, who would still lose.
+Spencer RIcker It seems at least to me clear that in this game they want you to feel like a demigod. You can leap dozens of metres through the air and other inhuman physical feats, kick people into next week, have magical powers and canonically take down entire armies by yourself. Seems clear they wanted the story and the combat to feel this way because this is their first entry into the RPG genre and being a demigod is a trope of the genre.
+Clueless I don't think engine limitations and hardware of 2007-2010 had any negative impact on how 'powerful' they were able to make Ezio feel. just look At Prince of Persia Two thrones from ubisoft, when they want a character to feel superhuman they could absolutely represent that at the time.
bayek would give kassandra a good bbc
Sam Bladed I doubt it. Dude would be dead already.
I loved Origins and I'm just as excited for Odyssey.
Well this video made me feel like multiplayer is never returning. Which sucks. I had hope it would return for so long but given how he shut it down it just doesn't seem likely anymore. I'm still excited for Odyssey and think it'll be a great game but I really miss multiplayer.
Agent Z46 ikr, WE NEEED MULTIPLAYER!!!
Can’t wait for assassins creed japan and odessy
this is a brilliant format for interviews to get players a lot of information. but you guys do WAY too many throw away joke questions when there are still plenty of good questions you coulda asked:
in new game+ can you switch protagonists?
will the animus control panel be returning?
can you become high enough level to max out every skill?
is either character confirmed as canonical in the overall AC story line?
will there be an explanation for why you can make choices even though your'e supposed to be viewing history?
will we be spending much time in the present day outside of the animus?
etc etc
lots of opportunity to get a bunch of answers to a bunch of little questions but instead you have to go for "when was the last time you climbed something in real life?"
come on now. fantastic idea it just could be better executed. every time i watch these im both impressed and disappointed.
Saif Ahmed you cant learn every skill but you can reset your skill Points to start over again if you want
they do a deeper dive in the reader q&a video toward the end of each month, these are always a little more general
Saif Ahmed this interview seemed to try and be 50% for info and 50% for laughs, and in that regard - they succeeded. However most of your questions a really good and i wish they thought about them as well.
P.s. cassandra is cannonical, afaik.
+Saif Ahmed I have a simple answer to your animus question. It's a video game, if the playing experience can benefit from either the player's story not being totally canon or plot holes it's worth it. They believe and I believe with them that adding RPG elements should improve the archetype that was Origins. Hopefully this will enhance the quality of the side quests, increase investment in dialogue for those who might not have been as interested in a lot of the dialogue last time, add some actual stakes to the often monotonous tasks present in Ubisoft games and give everyone the joy of building their own story where they can look back at the end and say 'wow look how everything's changed because I did this and I did that'.
I'm biased as hell though because I love RPGs and while I did have fun with origins I found a lot of the crafted activities were not substantially improved enough in quality when compared to the side content back in AC2 and very similar to the side content in Unity. Really including rpg elements like branching narratives and character reputation systems should be incentive for Ubisoft to actually really think about the actual quest and objective design or 'gameplay'...now unfortunately I don't imagine this happening, I think we're going to see a repeat of Origins but with dialogue sequences at the start and end of quests and actual consequences hopefully that's enough to make playing them more interesting.
7dayspking i wholeheartedly agree that gameplay should come first.
Screw the lore.
And if any franchise can mess with the lore yet still find some awquard way of claiming its kinda canon its AC.
Besides the hidieous voice acting - im all for what theyre trying to do.
I love this way series is edited. It always cracks me up.
No hidden blade 1/10
p.s. its a joke i think Spear of leonidas is a good option than the massive known hidden blade
I really like how these videos balance humor with good information.
9:52-10:02 Of course it needs to be tied to the assassin's order to be an assassins creed game! The order and the characters within it are what made the series!.
Miles is an Assassin, and it's likely Layla will join their ranks as well; Templars and Isu are also a huge part of the lore and will probably have a bigger focus in this game then in any previous game.
I'm start to thinking that we will play as a templar the whole game. The way he answered the questions about being a templars origin history really gives it out, it will be like Rogue
I hope you dudes are right. Origins would be pointless otherwise.
This was way more entertaining than I expected. Awesome. Keep ‘em coming.
My fav is ac 2 also it’s lit
'Did you see the AC movie?'
'Yes, I paid for it in more ways than one.'
Daaaaaamn
I love those rapid fire interviews. Brian Itahar's interview (Spider-Man) was the best so far. Unfortunately I couldn't care less about Assassins Creed.
then why did you watch it?
My favorite Q/A was: "How long is the game compared to Origins" "It's much longer than Origins". Made my day.
I hear we can kill sharks... which means there are sharks. I’m hyped!!!!
Edit: YOU CANT PET EVERY DOG??? Wtf??
Also bummed at the lack of character customization a bit
i actually like these types of interviews
Why does he look like he's forced to be there? lol i remember when Ashraf was doing marketing for Origins you could tell from the way he spoke during interviews and how he interacted with other's in social media that he actually cares for the game, while this dude is like idc im just doing my job doesn't necessarily mean that i love it tho, or something of the sorts you could tell that this game wasn't made with a ton of love from the developers which surely will reflect on the quality of the game.
This is hands down the greatest interview ever
"Can you play this game in Greek with English subtitles?"
"No, but you could play it in Italian and think it's Greek"
Dis sht made me laugh hard wtf
"What's at the end of the world?"
"Imagination."
Epic
0:10 "Dolphins and whales no because you're not a maniac"
Except you allowed us to do it before in Black Flag not because you were a maniac but because that was part of culture back then. Because it was historically accurate. Remember when we paid attention to that, guys?
I'm allowed to be salty, we're talking about the sea.
This was brilliant! I can't wait to get my hands on Odyssey..
Finally I have the answer to everything! "No comment", for if this games gonna be a Templar origin story. It's a Templar origin story, now I must get the game to receive all of the information.
C.K.AWESOME!!! No comment = yes
This was one of the greatest interviews ive ever seen. I cant wait to sail to feudal Japan and pet their dogs. To the question of what the best AC game is though, you both pronounced Black Flag wrong.
O don't know how i feel about this being set before AC Origins plus i don't this about many games but this looks shockingly similar to origins and Origins was my GOTY last year, I hope Odyssey delivers.
Baytuh AC GOTY LUL what games did you play?
Soulreaver majority of the the AAA games on Xbox one and ps4. I don't have a switch because most Nintendo games don't speak to me.
Bayek should've got his own trilogy. But, this sounds amazing. I've always wanted AC to become full open-world RPG and i'm hyped for this.
I'm just wondering if this could be the origins od Templar order. The begining of their story.
Big choices in AC? It was supposed to be a linear story, something that already happened and now it's like a movie like old ACs. And they should return good old eagle vision and a bunch of other mechanics that you threw out in Origins in the next game. AND MAKE IT IN FEUDAL JAPAN FFS! Ok they don't have to make next one in feudal Japan but it would be awesome if they did
Jovan Kovacevic You want them to return to old AC yet you were probably also one of the whiners who wanted change and got tired of old AC.
Toe Nail What the fuck are you talking about? Not only I didn't want the huge changes in Origins but I was disapointed at Ubisoft for other type of Eagle vision in Unity... When I played Origins I was like this is a good game but it isn't AC, I didn't want even minor changes in AC, I wanted everything to stay same
Jovan Kovacevic nothing is the same anymore i wouldn't even call this in ac game it just isnt we can debate mechanics & or gameplay all we want but old genuine assasins creed games are dead now what people want are 'ooh can we go here, lets keep going back in time' etc etc. Nothing is connected anymore we will never get what ezio got & that was an understandabe stable story that connected into MORE then one single story game.
People bitched for years saying they needed to change. Then they changed and people bitch about how it's not the same. They can't win
Why everyone want japan?
I haven’t been this excited for an Assassins creed game since AC2
But, really, when are we going to feudal Japan, Ubisoft?
Boyzby next year
Ghost of Tsushima is your friend. Sekiro shadows die twice too.
Boyzby you already can but in your imagination XD
Prima Ghost looks awesome. Sekiro not so much
@@TheSpartan012 Sekiro looks very good imo. But each to their own.
So it's official, they're working on AC Fish.
