I like it, its familiar, it doesnt add anything new, but it doesnt take anything away from the series either. Just aggresive stealth ac game, thats what they said they would make and thats what they delivered. The most honest AC has been in a while
I feel like it is much needed and a great step in the right direction to get back to what made it great and legendary in the first place. Never thought we would feel the real nostalgia outside of legacy outfits.
It's great want great game play and great story we don't need hours and hours off filler have kids and job and wanting to game we don't need all these crap side quest and lvl that do nothing make a good game we don't need hundred hour game
@@moistcloud2679 exactly and unlike AC3, it’s intro is more bearable. Allowing for replays. I also love how they handled the gear system. It’s a good idea going forward imo.
What mechanics? This game doesn't even have basic systems in it. I mean hell the Eagle is totally useless in this. If you were supposed to be able to do things in this game, UBISOFT didn't get the memo to include them.
@@TLgamer_TLhow is the eagle useless? how does this game not have “basic systems” in it? are you a game dev lmao what are the basic systems that you require oh wise one 😂😂😂
Also, guards don't detect your focus kills except for the one you're finishing at, I used mine whilst blended in with the crowd to take out a target, then hit one behind all the other enemies and get back into the crowd quickly. Which honestly felt badass
I really liked the original 3 With Altair, Ezio. AC1, AC 2 Brotherhood, and AC revelation…. i liked recruiting recruits and then being able to send them on missions, I also liked how when you would conquer an area of the map, you would have to defend it from attacks trying to come back and retake it…. and meeting actual people in history like leonardo davinci, and be franklin i didn’t love when it started becoming magical like fighting mythical gods…. but i really like Mirage so far, i love pickpocketing, i love scouting an area and trying to find a way to get to the objective, i love the focus kills, don’t love the combat that much, it’s kind of challenging, but more because it’s janky and less because it’s designed that way…. but sneaking around a castle taking down enemies and hiding the bodies is fun
Not at all! I think the main problem is the loud minority in the fandom that are unable to remove their rose-colored glasses and get their heads out of their asses
Sick use of the mechanics. Might have bumped this up from an 8 to an 9 just realizing how much they've actually added/changed to make players more immersed.
Another interesting mechanic, if you aim the throwing knife while facing the corner of a wall, Basim puts his back against the wall, allowing you to peer around the corner while aiming the knife.
This guy proved all the big gamer youtuber/critics Ive seen playing this are just casuals with big platforms,,, this is high level gaming , you know its legit coz the game just came out and he has the sauce already
Man the Blowdart/Sleep Darts are ALWAYS SO OP!! I've been having a lot of fun with AC Mirage so far...I've used the Blowdart to get out of a lot of sticky situations. Also thanks for the Assassin Focus warp trick!! I will be using that for the remainder of my playthrough!
Another tip. Enkidu has an upgrade that highlights points of interests when you are using him to look around. This helped me to find things from the Wilderness like the Dervish artifacts and gear chests.
@@hasusiifair and thanks anyways to op for sharing. These Broomstick tips videos are very focused on sharing things that the game doesn't make obvious. Which is why op have replies saying, it's so.
Love the game so far, now that I'm getting used to it. In saying that, I still love the gameplay and immense map of Odyssey as well. As a long-time Assassin's Creed player, I like them all pretty much, each one has its ups and downs.
Great video. I don't usually find these types of videos useful but this one truly showed me some incredible things I didn't think of myself so I felt I had to comment and like
This is actually my first AC game and I’m enjoying this sneaky gameplay. Makes you sit down and think about your tactics a little bit - and Enkidu is so helpful to mark out enemies too!
For pickpocketing there’s an option in the settings to turn on guaranteed pickpocketing so it bypasses the mini game. And yes it works for mysterious shards. I turned it off but it’s good to know
@schalkraw7583 not sure what you're trying to say, but the pickpocket mini-game is far from fun. It's a waste of time. After doing it plenty of times successfully, including for Dervis's trinkets, I turned it off and never looked back.
The game was awesome, although i literally did everything like collectables and beat the story within 2 days of playing. This time they made the game very very short. Which is sad because after you’re done with everything theres no point of playing anymore, unlike Valhalla, they had so many things to do and so many extra dlc’s they would add. Im a big fan of AC but I wish they didn’t cut so short with this new one. Smh.
Awesome video man!! I just started playing this game recently and I love it a lot, thank you for all these tricks!! Also you’re really funny. 😂😂😂😄😄😎😎💯💯💯✨✨✨
Very helpful video, I struggle a lot in mirage combat, always had to rely on my focus kills and tools bar, so wasn't able to enjoy the combat. After this I'll try to implement them and I'll also change the combat keyboard and mouse settings, as I am used to old ACS, I really founs the old AC settings more comfortable.
Been a while since I found a New TH-camr with great humor and well executed Content. Earned a new sub. Excellent choice on how the pacing and structure of this video is. Bout to dive into this, so this was very helpful to know. Love to know more about that blue outfit and dagger. Thanks.
instant sub earned, no questions asked, if that‘s you in every clip in this vid, you are dope👌🏽 i was avoiding fights all the time and was for assassinations as much as i can because i hate the wanted feauture and these elites but thanks to these new tips you can be damn sure imma go fight on the street again😂
The only hidden secrets in this game is the entire tutorial for the systems and mechanics. As of now, AC Mirage is totally unplayable. Even the eagle is 100% useless because you cannot even mark or track anything with it. I've been in this for 9 hours and I'm still wondering why the only thing there is to do is, pickpocket, sell what you pickpocket, run around, and do some assassinations. The update added that added the wall dismount backwards and sideways, has now completely screwed up the parkour you can no longer drop down from a place you're hanging onto. I have an in depth video here on my youtube channel that goes over just how unplayable AC Mirage really is!
I thought I’d hate Mirage like I hated the last several entries in the series, but I love it. It feels like the OG games with better movement and climbing mechanics
3:45 for that instant pickpocket on during this section you can always turn off the pick pocket time event and Basim will do it automaticly without the quick time even
Fairly certain you can just turn off the pickpocket mini game in the settings section. Personally won't be doing that whenever I get around to picking up this game. Yes, I prefer actual Assassin's Creeds over the AC skinned RPGs we've been getting.
i like the fact that they brought the game back to its origins considering the stealth and whatnot but It's really irritating me that while I'm collecting items to bribe munadi and musician to roam freely, you have to encounter enemies!!!! so it is time consuming...I hope they fix that in the next game.....great video by you btw
While I am enjoying Mirage, I really liked the larger games better. I love completely immersing myself in a game an just being in their world for a long while. I literally played Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla for months. Playing completely off mission isn't really possible in Mirage without getting bored quickly, unlike the larger, open world games.
I had no idea if you strike the bags of spices that it essentially drops a smoke bomb. Great tip! I think Mirage utilized the tools in my favorite way. I hope they carry over the customization you could do with the tools to future game. I would prefer that to the 1000s of weapons/armor you have in Odyssey.
big open world action all the way. love AC and beat em all in order, but Oddessy and Valhalla are my favorites along with Ghost of Tsushima Mirage was way too short! it shouldve been a 20USD DLC for Valhalla
So sad that they didn't just put the OG fighting mechanics in this game. I would've bought it then. Its a step in the right direction but I ain't buying unless they switch from the unsatisfying arcady block and attack mechanic to the OG mechanic
Don't know if you're aware, Jean-Luc Sala shared your video. 😉 Love your torch use, I'll definitely give it a go. I only used torches to burn snakes before. And set NPCs on fire - then they don't count as a kill. Have a great weekend!❤️
To be completely honest this game is the best it blows the last three out the water the story alone was good but gameplay was amazing I never played a game for so long in one sitting for a while so ggs to Ubisoft
just finished Mirage yesterday (with every collectible); I enjoy the return to stealth and a smaller map... I loved Origins and even Valhalla (was not a big fan of Odyssey) but the maps were starting to just get too big... partly because who wants to wait 8 hours for the game to install before you even fire it up. I'd give Mirage a solid 8/10 overall.
Thanks for this video! It helped me a lot! I knew already some things, but the fighting style was new for me. By the way - is it possible to turn off Chromatic abberation on PC?
I came late to the party at AC Origins, I tried to go back and play the older games and there was too much waiting around, AC Mirage has hit that sweet spot
Your explanation was nice but about the game im really sad about the blood effects in the combat and need counter attack like old times atleast at a combo type
Finally someone who I agree with I miss real sword play leading g up to a skillful finish a master assassin should obviously be a master of his weapon not mindlessly swinging it , I loved how ac3 set up counter kills and dual executions
I played Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla as stealthy. I don’t understand people complaining that they weren’t stealth games. Everyone had a choice to play them that way and if they chose not to that was their decision. One tip I would give everyone is not to ignore the quest whose clue is the northern oasis. I watched Rad Brad’s play through and he mentioned it several times but never read the very first clue so he never went there. Really don’t think that should have been optional.
*What do you think of Mirage being less of an "Action RPG" and more of a classic Assassin's Creed game?* -BoomstickAlex

Am I the only one who likes both Old Assassins Creed and New Assassins Creed??????
So far yes
Definitely not. Love the new ones. The negative ones are the loudest. Most people I know even prefer the new ones while still loving the old ones.

You can also disable the pickpocket mini game in the options, this way you don't have to use sleep darts as well
Where's the fun in that tho lol

Didn't think I'd ever wanna play an AC game again. I'll check this out. Looks like fun
Thanks for the heads up on the air attacks without dying or teleporting kills in high places. I've learned alot of the basics from u so far thanks.
I love this game tbh and I hope they continue to use the "be stealthy" kind of gameplay but improve the combat more
Yea combat is ass
I really prefer this back to the roots style Assassins creed.
0:03 ...assassining? that's a great new word
Love the game so far, now that I'm getting used to it. In saying that, I still love the gameplay and immense map of Odyssey as well. As a long-time Assassin's Creed player, I like them all pretty much, each one has its ups and downs.
Aint gonna lie at first at hated it but then is something about that i just wanna keep playing it lol
*Inmerse map* Dude please go to the Dr. & check your eyes. Is a stupid tiny map that feels so lineal
@@AxelPLUSYotsu also you clearly can’t read LMAO because the OP said it’s not the immense map of odyssey, smh

this was actually very helpful, Ubisoft is not well known for showing how good a game actually is.

would really encourage you to try AC’s 1-unity then! they are all pretty similar to this one
The using focus to penetrate fortresses was a fantastic find! Thanks for this cool, informative video!

There's actually a setting to turn off the pick pocketing mini game in the options menu.

This is incredibly helpful. Thank you
Not got Acm yet but this is just the vid i needed, to the point info with no bs👍👍👍
Thanks for this. I'm still on the fence. Hope we can turn the flashy crap off on weapons and hit effects..
I miss from the ezio games how you could just hold the button for pickpocketing and just walk into people and keep going especially through crowds
I haven't had a chance to get stuck into Mirage yet, the jous of being married and having kids, but these extra tips are very useful, thank you 😄
Guess u shoulda waited
Just leave to get milk
To hell with them kids!!! Play video games bro! Fkn YOLO LOL
Just get your kids to hunt the collectibles for you.
honestly I like complex parkour with manual side ejects, back ejects and all those things
This is the most informative video about this game that I've seen so far. U earned a sub my friend. 🙂👍🏽

Not sure if its been mentioned, but the pickpocketing minigame can be completely turned off in the settings.
The Focus in mid air trick I gotta use next time. 😎
Nice video Alex. Very helpful 😊
