Sorry about that, the earlier upload had a rendering error which you guys pointed out. I appreciate your help on that, it should all be good now. And huge thanks to Ubisoft for the free and early copy of the game!
This was pretty well done. I've long since forgotten what the original PoP storyline was lol. Some of the fight scenes made me think I'd accidentally switched over to a Street Fighter video 🐧
there are Seven Immortals, right? 2 abstained from fighting you for plot reasons, 1 died in a cutscene, and 2 you fought.... so where is Radjam? and i think you forgot some cutscenes that reveal that the young boy is a young Vahram.
I not sure, cause I’ve finished the game and there were no cutscenes or boss fights in regards of Radjam’s death, or maybe there will be a DLC that will have that, like a mission that happened between certain events in the main story
ok, this is seriously bugging me. What the heck happens to that Radjen chick (the one in the metal mask)? She vanishes after you part at the entrance, and I can't tell if she reappears at any point after that - there doesn't appear to be a mandated boss fight against her, but she doesn't appear in any subsequent cutscenes after Vahran turns the immortals against Sargon, and Sargon claims she's amongst the dead at the ending, but I can't see any cutscenes of her dying? Does she perish in a side quest or something?
Thanks for the (re)upload GLP. Heres my take: Ive been a fan of the prince series right from SOT, while I do get that the trilogy concluded, I guess we all were excited when a new prince game was announced, and we had certain expectations. While this game definitely took risks by deviating from the usual 3rd-person style and moving back to a side-scroller (hearkening back to the ORIGINAL price of persia), the game definitely looks smooth and the fights look interesting. I think a lot of people will have issues with the story as it seems a bit incoherent every now and again. What exactly made Vahram a villain here? He had his inheritance wrongly stolen from him, and as far as I could see his ultimate motivations werent "evil" per se. Yes he did want to kill the prince out of vengeance, but after that he only wanted to save persia from the destruction that he saw. Also the characters werent fleshed out enough...who was the old man? Who was that random girl in the beginning? Also does no-one seem curious that suddenly our MC is headbutting Primordial Gods and taking hits that should blow him to pieces like its nothing? (Even in the cut scenes). The ending part confused me the most...Vahram was being sucked into the void..so he took out the heart and held it up..then he dies..then the heart gets sucked into the void anyway, so he neednt have done that...also what about all the creatures he faces? That creature who was the mount of the forest queen said something about a secret that Sargon held deep within, that wasnt addressed either. And lets not forgot the blue-masked elephant in the room who disappeared in the beginning and was never heard from again, Redjan. And at the end, where did the little Vahram come from??? Did they snatch him from the past and bring him to the future???? The end left me with more questions than answers. I dunno, the games flashy enough with more than a little influence from Anime and God of War (Orod's weapon change, Vahram's samurai fighting style, "power of friendship" final attack by the MC), but I think the storytelling and narrative here kinda let it down. 6.5/10 for me.
Vahram's "Samurai Style" reminded me of Vergil from DMC 3 and 5 - even if Ubisoft went back to the roots, why must facial features switch form side to side during dialogues? Otherwise I agree, too many plot points that were not tied up at the end as if JJ Abrams was part of the writing room... solid gameplay and beautiful scenery, 6/10.
There's a lot of stuff that isn't explained in the cutscenes but is explained in lore or with in-game dialogue between the player and the other character. SPOILERS BELOW Sargon was also a prince of Persia, he was Thomyrisis son. He was always pretty strong as he was an immortal, but he also had the simurghs powers from the feathers. The simurgh was also reviving him and giving him another chance whenever he died, so yeah, kinda explains why he's a badass. Its also a fictional story so if you don't suspend your disbelief a bit you'll get hung up on a lot of stuff lolol, Sargans and the other immortals strength make sense in the PoP universe. If you judge the game and story without playing the game you're missing out on a lot of story, a lot of context, and more importantly a lot of fun. Highly recommend to give it a playthrough if you can
It might have been a good idea to put the scene where you discover that Sargon IS the real prince of persia, that the queen hid at birth xD ... you know.... the main punch of the game ?
I’m glad that Sargon decided to help save Vahram instead the old friend turned evil so gatta kill him troupe. I actually like him quite a bit. I hope we get to fight as the other characters in the next game if made. I really enjoyed playing this. Ended too quickly. 😢 visually pleasing and voice acting is top notch. Challenging and rewarding. And literally all the boss fights were super fun! Of course not without some glitches but overall great game.
I jst dont knw wht to say.... protagonist is not d prince of persia.... antagonist is the rightful prince of Persia...n d the actual Prince of persia is either dead or his only job is to stand.....wht is this
Hidden lore reveals Sargon is actuall the queen's third child that she switched at birth after the first 2 died. So we are actually playing as the prince of persia.
@@novah5575 Given the otherwise lackluster writing I consider "them dropping hints" as loose story beads the writers at some point thought were great ideas - until someone came in and said "f this, why does the hero need to be a prince, let's make him a foot soldier from the streets with anime powers". The Simurgh only blesses kings and by right, Sargon should have become the new ruler (even the queen says so? wtf?!). The serpent hints as there being more to Sargon, which might have been him being the former king's son with a commoner (except for former king being dead since 30 years ago?!). Also, magician-retailer gran says something about Sargon not being the center of the universe when he literally becomes that at the end?
@BigBossBernie If you complete the prophecy jars and the 3 bells platforming puzzle you can piece together the information that Sargon is Queen Tamyra's third child that was switched at birth with Ghassan (the pawn prince) to keep him safe. Sargon was given to Anahita to protect. It also explains why Ghassan said the queen "never really was motherly"
If I understand correctly, there are several reboots of the Prince of Persia franchise, with one of the consistent themes being the ability to rewind time and the stories following figures nicknamed "Princes of Persia" (not actual princes, most of the time). As for this one's connections, the main antagonist is essentially THE Prince of Persia, complete with rewinding time.
This game isn't set in historical Persia, even if it's inspired by it, as the magical super-warriors probably should've hinted at. That said, actual ancient Persia was indeed very diverse! The Persian Empire stretched from Ethiopia to Scythia; from from Macedon to Maka. People in the heartland of Persia could've originated from the Black Sea or the fertile plains of Kush; from what is now southern Russia to northern India. The ancient world was pretty diverse. Empires came into existence to secure trade networks that brought people and goods from foreign lands to increase the wealth of the imperial capital. That wealth didn't just take the form of objects but also artisans, scholars, and slaves.
Curious about the long awaited next installment in the Prince of Persia franchise but wary of the flashy changes made to the formula so you are waiting for the clapping seals' wave of recency bias to pass? Well wait no more. In the new Prince of Persia game the prince is the villain, everybody is magic, you kill the king, you claim nobody should have the power of a god then tell everyone to wait here while you _a random nobody guard who has no reason or context to be the protagonist in the story other than having been designated the protagonist and center of every universe by the writers_ murder most of your friends with your ridiculous anime powers you just sort of always had then you proceed to steal all the remaining god powers for yourself, then at the moment of truth you refuse to give the power you stole back for the greater good, because if you do you won't be special anymore...and that won't do because the world revolves around you and strains to make sure your single minded perspectives are never wrong or challenged in any way meaningful or otherwise.... Hows that mentor of yours doing? who cares. We forgot about her pretty quick, despite having time powers. And where did the voldo woman go? This _is it fair to say game_ was barely a step above a mobile game in visuals, talent, budget, and vibe. The story was enough to make you feel sorry for the people who have this game as their introduction to the franchise. I hope it was at the very least it felt good to play controls wise or I'll start feeling sorry for the person who soldiered though that fanfic first draft for the capture footage. You are the real hero. Sometimes writers need to be told in no uncertain terms "NO!" and sent back to square one. That whole story was awful. These modern writers need to learn to think about what their stories say and consider the potential takeaways instead of just how it looks on the surface. Or better yet just write better. Really makes you wonder the AI taking writers jobs is really that bad a thing, if this is the quality of their work.
@@sammalone7881 Honestly, if the quality of the human writer's work is this poor, then yes, at least an AI is incapable of innovation it is capable of constructing generating cohesive balanced and consistent narrative story structure and character. When crafting a story, regardless of the medium, the author should always keep the idea in mind that people will be voluntarily investing their time into the author's story, an author should not feel their story is entitled to be experienced by anyone. So the author should be motivated to write something they would be willing, if not eager, to spend a hundred hours or more in. If the author is not willing spend time in their story, then how can they expect other people _who do not share the author's favourable view of the story_ to spend time immersed in the story.
I'll give them one thing.. I agree with most of what you say, but Sargon is the 3rd son that was hidden at birth, so you actually play the Prince of Persia, in a prophecie that involves around you and some other princes
Great storyline. Really moving and I like how they gave time powers to someone else. I have complaints about the 2d environment. Prince of persia is meant to be more open and deadly. Miss the time powers that we can use and definitely miss the main character from Sands of time trilogy. He was the face of the series. Love the new characters though and playing as someone else. All in all I would give it a 5/10. People may think that it's unfair but those gamers who played POP sands of time on ps2 will probably agree.
And I thought I might be being a bit too critical toward the game by rating it 7.5. I do miss the trilogy and 3d aspect of the game, but for me, this is far beyond my expectations for a platformer game. The only thing I didn't like were a few boss fights, cause I struggled a lot and had to look for a guide, for a platformer game🤐

PoP STARTED as a 2D game and was far more restrictive than this game. So no, TLC is true PoP and respects Persia more as setting than any PoP game so far.
Good 8/10 for my experience. Boy! The stages can be unforgiving at times especially the sands stage with all the crystal shards to the point I felt crazy. I like 100% completing games so getting every Xerxes coin was really something. But I noticed I played better the more angry I got. There was one I tried to get so much I was cursing and flying through all the the traps like a pro and finally got it. YES!!
A nice game over all but the story is a little bit incoherent and moving a bit fast. Gameplay is ok. I think it's enjoyable but definitely not fully live up to the expectation
Totally agree. 2D..... BS fighting. Nothing to do with POP other than Sargon being the lost prince. They should have rolled with that more but, my curiosity makes me wanna know the story
It’s effed up that they decided to make the famous nomad queen of the great steppe to be Persian queen. She is the one who beheaded the Persian king Kurush. Bullshit story from the get go…
Sorry about that, the earlier upload had a rendering error which you guys pointed out. I appreciate your help on that, it should all be good now. And huge thanks to Ubisoft for the free and early copy of the game!
This beautiful friendship between Sargon and the Prince is well done.
The wise man does not need an enemy to prove his strength. Might be one of the most profound lines of dialogs i have read in fiction.
Poor Vahram, he never asked to be corrupted and evil
There are two sides to every story.
Like us, He have to fight himself and he's able too , it's only a matter of the choice and he fixed what he did at the end.
This was pretty well done. I've long since forgotten what the original PoP storyline was lol. Some of the fight scenes made me think I'd accidentally switched over to a Street Fighter video 🐧
The best fight by far was the forest queen. It was visually spectacular! But that’s just me.
they totally forgot about the blue ninja lady.
They just reveal in the end that she's dead...offscreen😂
Does sargon kill the blue ninja lady as a boss fight in the game ?
what? no way. i wonder how she died @@kadenha2175
@@fokevin35no she’s the only one left out for some reason
Yeah thought so to till it's revealed when he says rajden or something like that all dead now I dont understand why kill her off screen

no issues. anytime bro. thanks for uploading. I don't have time to play games now so It helps a lot. keep it doing
1:53:49 UNITEEEEED STAAAAATES OF SMAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSHHHHHHHHH
I really enjoyed seeing the cultural aspects this game shows within a great storyline. Thanks for the play through!!!!
We got us a Harvard grad here boys. Ps this game is far from culturally correct. Dumb fuq..... Go back to school for another 6 years
I want a Moon Knight game like this
ok, this is seriously bugging me.
What the heck happens to that Radjen chick (the one in the metal mask)? She vanishes after you part at the entrance, and I can't tell if she reappears at any point after that - there doesn't appear to be a mandated boss fight against her, but she doesn't appear in any subsequent cutscenes after Vahran turns the immortals against Sargon, and Sargon claims she's amongst the dead at the ending, but I can't see any cutscenes of her dying? Does she perish in a side quest or something?
That confused me too
Yeah, glad I am not the only one who noticed. I wonder what happened.
Same question here
Spoiler is you need to play Dlc.
Damn. Ekko went to deep with his experiment and got lost into different franchise
This was different…it was cool. But different. Tempted to revisit the old pop games.
Really good story. The main enemy is the legit Prince of Persia. Did not see that coming.
Wait so what happened to the blue chick in the mask?
She actually wasn’t even shown at all. I finished the game and never came across her. I’m thinking I may have missed something.

awsemmmmm
too much gameplay

You kill the Prince of Persia
maybe you should replay the game or the video bro xD cause..... nope xD you don't
Cutscenes saved what was otherwise atrocious platforming sequences and mediocre combat.
Stop 😭
Lol, nice bait.
That mediorce combat is miles better than Ori series
You are insane and need therapy

2D..... BS fighting. Nothing to do with POP other than Sargon being the lost prince. They should have rolled with that more
but, my curiosity makes me wanna know the story
I hate this game compared to the original series
- None exciting fighting
- 2D
yep
It’s effed up that they decided to make the famous nomad queen of the great steppe to be Persian queen. She is the one who beheaded the Persian king Kurush.
Bullshit story from the get go…
According to Herodotus lol, who knows how Cyrus actually died
