Completely historically accurate. I remember when I was studying for my final exam for my art major in college, I saw a rare prototype sketch by Da Vinci that depicted a bastard sword with a V8 Hemi engine attached to it. The cutting force must have been through the roof.
I think there is an actual British car show where they liked having an occasional comedic section where they rigged up high performance sports car motors to devices that shouldn't be run by high performance sports car motors & act like they were selling it in a paid program.
I like how the fact that this took time before AC1 emplies that somewhere in history the universe just decided to stop doing magical things and stick to what's normal EDIT: Okay so by "normal" I meant what was established with the Esu and Eden pieces, I didn't know this comment would blow up with so many likes so I didn't pay much attention to wording.
You know the crazy thing is that this is a completely accurate thing to say. Because apparently before the crusades there were Pieces of Eden and Isu running around everywhere.
That's pretty much the excuse real religions use for why shit is suspiciously normal these days, but somehow all kinds of crazy mythical and magical back in the days before anyone could verify the validity of their claims.
lol, when I played this back in 2020 my first though was "wtf is this Final Fantasy looking scene" not knowing that it was, in fact, a crossover dlc thing with FF. I proceeded to play the rest of the game using the weapons and mount from this. Pretty OP.
I'm on the opposite end. I'm wondering why there's an Assassin's costume in FF15. Now I know, and I'm not sure I even wanted to cause this just opens a whole new can of worms I don't want to think about.
You can feel the Final Fantasy drip off this crossover scene without even looking at the name. A guy with crazy hair and outfit entering through a portal, a giant magical creature that can conjure swords, the weapons left over looking like if they came from a greaser's imagining of medieval times. The FF team just got that personalized style that you can recognize on the spot.

I remember this cross over event. FF15 created this whole unique experience with fun character interactions and activities and tied it in a fun way with FF15’s lore in a way you could believe or dismiss. Assassins creed really just phoned it in by having you solve a puzzle a watch a cutscene to get the dlc weapons. It was a weird time for games. But when is it not I guess.
@@irecordwithaphone1856 I mean when this came out right away people went nuts for this little bit and complained that we didn’t even get a cool boss fight out of it. Others complained that it was in the game at all. There was no winning because it’s Assassins Creed. Every move was the wrong one it seemed.
…. I’m still sitting here thinking “no frickin way that was real, I had to have just watched a really really good fan animation of a crossover between the two series”
This actually implies a crossover with the Watch Dogs games as well. In the first game, one of Aiden’s convoy missions involved Alvaro Gramatica, who was being targeted by “the Brotherhood.” Alvaro is a Templar in Assassin’s Creed, a high-ranking member of the Order and a top executive of Abstergo Industries, the Templar front company. The Brotherhood are the Assassins. Then we have this. A scene from Bayek’s memories of that guy from FFXV doing a thing. Since this is canon, that means Assassin’s Creed, Watch Dogs, and Final Fantasy all exist together.
Or it could just be a fun Easter egg put in by the developers because not everything needs to be connected and can just exist for the sole purpose of fun.
Huh. Never realized this was a Final Fantasy crossover. The whole Precursor thing has just been increasing in presence throughout the games that I thought it was gear related to that.
Ah yes, the ancient Egypt, love that part where a giant mechanical dragon rains energy swords from the sky and a final fantasy character comes out of the pyramids, leaving a mechanical sword and a WoW look a like shield, historical and amazing.
I remember stumbling upon this at random having zero idea that it was Final Fantasy related. I had never been so simultaneously excited and confused. Good times.

FF15 crossover where for some reason the two main antagonists Ardyn & Bahamut (long story short Ardyn hates Bahamut and Bahamut fucks over everyone) are just in Egypt. Like there's nothing to even indicate in either game what's going on. Meanwhile in FF15 there's just like a festival themed after the assassins (iirc it's treated as just a video game fan thing) and you go have fun dressed as Bayek in a carnival. (Though sadly the crossover was limited time on their end so the only remnant is an Altair outfit).
For those who are confused, this scene is an easter egg for the Final Fantasy 15 collab they did. The idea is that this guy traveled from another world.

@@irecordwithaphone1856 It's cannon. Everything that Ubi gives is cannon. When Isu is cannon then everything is cannon. Oh and remember, they killed Juno in comics, wasting whole her development with lazy death.

Ah yes, historically accuracy. The sole reason the fandom plays these games. How could I forget a Final Fantasy event that was taught in 4th grade in history class?
Words cannot describe my confusion upon doing this mission for the first time. I especially love Bayek’s solemn prayer to the Egyptian gods, thinking he was finding a portal to the afterlife or literally meeting the gods, and then him going dead silent for the rest of the mission, having nothing to say in response to the Anime Weaboo Final Fantasy madness that just transpired
I cant believe people actually complain about this. It was a Final Fantasy 15 crossover, same reason you can wear Altair’s outfit in that game. They did a thing guys, get over it.
You see, this is actually explained in one of the comics. Ardyn is actually the reencarnation of the Isu called Nix the ctonic Goddess of night and that dragon was an experiment from project Draconis run by the Isu scientist...
I remember playing this crossover in Final Fantasy XV! The festival with the assassins and all that, i remember after completing it you got the Shield of the Medjay. A decent weapon, and overpowered if you got it at the beginning of your playthrough lol. Never started playing AC Origins till now but uh I completely forgot about this! Glad to finally see the other side lol
That time when Ardyn sent the engine blade thru our dimension & 10,000 years into the past while using the power of the luciai was my favorite lesson in history class
As someone who was playing both this and final fantasy 15 at the same time the fact they did a cross over event for both was both weird and awesome at the same time 😂
Assassin's Creed was never 100% historically accurate as often people and events were changed slightly for the sake of the narrative being told, but such changes were mostly small and you could argue that our real world history simply didn't report certain details correctly within the game's universe. At the least, they tried to remain as accurate or at least believable as possible. Then, they just gave up. Ubisoft, if you want to make a fantasy RPG, make a fantasy RPG, not Assassin's Creed.
I remember when I first played this moment, the thought that mainly crossed my mind (as I had no idea this was FFXV) was just a really intrigued yet really confused..."Well that just happened."
Partway through, I saw what the dude who came out of the explosion was wearing and the angel thing and legitimately thought: "Oh, it's a joke. This is Final Fantasy or something." Then I saw the mission complete and now I'm worried. Did they actually mess up this bad?
@@Sleepnt117 yeah, if you didnt play Origins I'd recommend it. Tho I'd skip this side quest, I'll find the name for ya; "A Gift From The Gods" in Saqqara Nome, by a pyramid. If you record videos, I actually like the sun dial puzzle, but I'd cut footage after that.
@@gregrobinette8620 Thank you! I played it a bit in the past, but don’t think the story made much sense to me. It seemed like I was missing a lot of information, almost like I was playing a sequel game for Bayek’s story. I have wanted to give it a second go for a while, though, and think this may be my call to :)
When will people realize they didn’t remove the crossbow for historical accuracy but because it couldn’t be balanced. After all, pretty sure apples of eden and assassins with hidden wrist blades weren’t jumping into hay bails during the crusades either but idk. I guess people pick and choose when old AC was “historically accurate “
@@the_seer_0421 A game set in Ancient Greece (amazing historical setting: check). You are a descendent from a bloodline with connections to the Isu (sth taht has existed ever since AC4 at least, arguably since AC1: check). You fight a secret order that tries to rule the world (the typical AC struggle: check). Every major "mythological" experience is due to Isu artifacts and technology, inclusing Kassandras "superpowes" and the "monsters" we fight. So again, what exactly doesn´t make sense?
@@MisterK9739like that whole last part of your reply. With other words, we are playing as a full on demigod hundreds of years before even the slightest idea of a creed was in anyone's mind, fighting an enemy that has pretty much no relevance in the big picture and introducing unnecessary retcons that break already established lore and have full disregard towards it. All this accompanied by the writing skills of a 14 year old fan fiction writer. Oh and making it into a shallow, borderline mmo stylized "rpg". Everything about the game just feels wrong.
I'd just fijished FFXV before playing this and my dad got this scene and lost his SHIT because he kinda recognized the characters... I proceeded to lose mg shit because Ultima and Zeidrich came back to me after grinding like hell for them back in 15 and I was TREMENDOUSLY happy! Kweh was the only mount I used as well.

So y'all remember when Ezio made clones of himself in AC2?
@@swiftchancellor159So did Al-Mualim in AC 1
No they removed it because it was OP not for historical accuracy
This is a non canon crossover with Final Fantasy so it doesn't matter
Well well their ideology in developing AC 1 compare to modern AC is quite different
Ya'll realise this is a FF crossover and not actually canon? Was just a fun thing they did
People realize it they'd just rather complain and be sticks in the mod. Obviously it's not canon. But it isn't that serious either
@@irecordwithaphone1856 It's cannon. Everything that Ubi gives is cannon.
When Isu is cannon then everything is cannon.
Oh and remember, they killed Juno in comics, wasting whole her development with lazy death.
@@xXSilentAgent47XxIts confirmed this wasnt canon.
@@xXSilentAgent47Xx If this is you being honest then you're incorrect. If you're employing dishonest sarcasm it's lying. You're either stupid or a liar. Which is it?
Lie from habit (incorrect jokes) and you live a lie. An honest joke can't be faulted. Morbid humor is good for that. Joker in Mass Effect is a good example.
@@xXSilentAgent47XxAs funny as the idea that Bahamut and Ardyn are canon, that is not the case.
Ah yes, historically accuracy. The sole reason the fandom plays these games. How could I forget a Final Fantasy event that was taught in 4th grade in history class?
Don't you miss when assassin's creed tried to be somewhat realistic?
Words cannot describe my confusion upon doing this mission for the first time. I especially love Bayek’s solemn prayer to the Egyptian gods, thinking he was finding a portal to the afterlife or literally meeting the gods, and then him going dead silent for the rest of the mission, having nothing to say in response to the Anime Weaboo Final Fantasy madness that just transpired
I cant believe people actually complain about this. It was a Final Fantasy 15 crossover, same reason you can wear Altair’s outfit in that game. They did a thing guys, get over it.
Ok what exactly happened here, i know its from final fantasy but im lost on the details
I might need to go back and play this again. I do not remember this at all
it's a event u find not a main mission
It's a free dlc. I had it while I playing this game on ps4.
When I experienced this for the first time, I was actually mind blown by this cutscene. Never expected it to be in the game
0:48 - "angelic melody from which the blood in my veins freezes, it feels like I took all the heroin in the world and now time is nothing to me"
So according to Ubisoft both metal gear and final fantasy are part of the AC universe 😂
You see, this is actually explained in one of the comics. Ardyn is actually the reencarnation of the Isu called Nix the ctonic Goddess of night and that dragon was an experiment from project Draconis run by the Isu scientist...
Or...
He's Ardyn Lyn summoned from another universe. 🤷♂️
@@JeremiahEcks777 Makes no sense either way, like the rest of this franchise at this point lol
@@tommyvercetti9434 You're not wrong.
@@tommyvercetti9434 Bro it's just fiction. Quit acting so triggered.
I remember playing this crossover in Final Fantasy XV! The festival with the assassins and all that, i remember after completing it you got the Shield of the Medjay. A decent weapon, and overpowered if you got it at the beginning of your playthrough lol. Never started playing AC Origins till now but uh I completely forgot about this! Glad to finally see the other side lol
I never played finale fantasy before and Origins was my first AC game 😅 got quite confused when I saw this cutscene back then
Arno looks happier
the fact that i’ve never even played ff, & it was the first thing i thought of lmfao
Ubisoft: “hi I like money”
Nothing was safe from ffxv’s promotional crossovers
Bahamut chasing down Ardyn to another universe is the most lore accurate shit I've seen
Remember when Ezio almost touched cardboard box in Brotherhood that's set in 15th century?
That time when Ardyn sent the engine blade thru our dimension & 10,000 years into the past while using the power of the luciai was my favorite lesson in history class
fr this is actually ridiculous
Love how both games did a collab with each other.
I’m by no means an expert on ISU tech, but I don’t think that is ISU weaponry.
Man I miss the old days so much
What do you mean
This game came out 7 years ago
Its not even a decade old
@@YasonYou I'm saying these new games suck and make me miss the old games
As someone who was playing both this and final fantasy 15 at the same time the fact they did a cross over event for both was both weird and awesome at the same time 😂
Assassin's Creed was never 100% historically accurate as often people and events were changed slightly for the sake of the narrative being told, but such changes were mostly small and you could argue that our real world history simply didn't report certain details correctly within the game's universe. At the least, they tried to remain as accurate or at least believable as possible. Then, they just gave up. Ubisoft, if you want to make a fantasy RPG, make a fantasy RPG, not Assassin's Creed.
I remember when I first played this moment, the thought that mainly crossed my mind (as I had no idea this was FFXV) was just a really intrigued yet really confused..."Well that just happened."
I loved this cutscene so much.
Pretty sure there was a scene with an actual alien
Partway through, I saw what the dude who came out of the explosion was wearing and the angel thing and legitimately thought: "Oh, it's a joke. This is Final Fantasy or something." Then I saw the mission complete and now I'm worried. Did they actually mess up this bad?
It is Final Fantasy, its a crossover. They didnt mess up, this was a skipable side mission, it was never canon.
@@gregrobinette8620 Oh, thank God. Thank you, this is actually a huge relief for me :)
@@Sleepnt117 yeah, if you didnt play Origins I'd recommend it. Tho I'd skip this side quest, I'll find the name for ya; "A Gift From The Gods" in Saqqara Nome, by a pyramid. If you record videos, I actually like the sun dial puzzle, but I'd cut footage after that.
@@gregrobinette8620 Thank you! I played it a bit in the past, but don’t think the story made much sense to me. It seemed like I was missing a lot of information, almost like I was playing a sequel game for Bayek’s story. I have wanted to give it a second go for a while, though, and think this may be my call to :)
When will people realize they didn’t remove the crossbow for historical accuracy but because it couldn’t be balanced. After all, pretty sure apples of eden and assassins with hidden wrist blades weren’t jumping into hay bails during the crusades either but idk. I guess people pick and choose when old AC was “historically accurate “
My favourite moment from history is when a fiorentine noble almost killed the pope in an alien bunker
@@bigwheelfromspidamahn1037Or when a Florentine noble drove around in a tank made by Da Vinci.
Love how oblivious these people here are of the sarcasm
made me want to tear my eyes out when I first saw this
I don't mind this stuff because my "immersion" and sense of the "AC universe" died the second I played AC2.
Yyyeeeeah no
That’s why I stopped playing AC when Origins Dropt they said back to the old plan but they make things like that just no
still makes more sense than all of odyssey
What in Odyssey doesn‘t make sense exactly?
@@MisterK9739like, a bunch things... Let's start with the very core concept of the game itself.
@@the_seer_0421 A game set in Ancient Greece (amazing historical setting: check). You are a descendent from a bloodline with connections to the Isu (sth taht has existed ever since AC4 at least, arguably since AC1: check). You fight a secret order that tries to rule the world (the typical AC struggle: check). Every major "mythological" experience is due to Isu artifacts and technology, inclusing Kassandras "superpowes" and the "monsters" we fight.
So again, what exactly doesn´t make sense?
@@MisterK9739like that whole last part of your reply. With other words, we are playing as a full on demigod hundreds of years before even the slightest idea of a creed was in anyone's mind, fighting an enemy that has pretty much no relevance in the big picture and introducing unnecessary retcons that break already established lore and have full disregard towards it. All this accompanied by the writing skills of a 14 year old fan fiction writer. Oh and making it into a shallow, borderline mmo stylized "rpg". Everything about the game just feels wrong.
@@the_seer_0421 well I disagree. But I´m not gonna debate over subjective perception
I'd just fijished FFXV before playing this and my dad got this scene and lost his SHIT because he kinda recognized the characters...
I proceeded to lose mg shit because Ultima and Zeidrich came back to me after grinding like hell for them back in 15 and I was TREMENDOUSLY happy! Kweh was the only mount I used as well.
wth did i just see
how tf did we go from "hidden wristgun and crossbow are removed for historical accuracy" to this Devil may Cry stuff :)
Don't be a fool
They never claimed to have removed a cross bow for historical accuracy for AC origins
Stop making shi up
