Like this game or not, we all gotta admit Kassandra's voice acting was amazing. Be it Kassandra or Deimos, she really captured the essence of the character.
Kassandra Deimos sounds like she can easily burst into crazy evil laughter, with the way she drew breath, but she's also the most emotionless compared to Alexios Deimos, such a composed villain
I gotta say, I love them both in the role of Deimos, for opposite reasons. Despite having identical lines and such, Alexios is raw and angry, where Kassandra is cold and unsettling. Both do it brilliantly, but because the portrayals of the same role are so different, I can't say I prefer one to the other.
Alexios is a fearsome Deimos, but there's something about Kassandra that makes me like her more as Deimos. She's cold, unsettling, and seems unpredictable. It's like you'll always get into an anxious emotional state whenever she's around because you can't read her demeanor. You won't know whether she'll kill you or praise you, and that's what makes her truly menacing. Plus, her tall and imposing stature makes her all the more intimidating.
Frankly, I played the game as Alexios. Because the figure of a brother who saved his sister from the hands of the sect drew me more into the game. I think Kassandra suits Deimos better. The figure of a strong woman, whose mind was manipulated by the sect, thrown down the mountain at a young age, and who fights all this in her mind, was more attractive to me. There is also a warrior older brother figure in Alexios who wants to save his mother and younger sister and destroy the cultists. She is also compassionate. Kassandra is a strong, wild woman who questions her past.
Wow... I played as Kassandra, and every time Deimos came on screen, I thought of him as a annoying brainless idiot. But watching Kassandra as Deimos feels so much more menacing and evil. I now understand when actors say the way you deliver your line can make or your break your character.
OG version is cassandra as main protagonist and alexios is the bad guy, and you can see & feel it. kassandra VA does not sound evil or menacing at all. Poor people who played as alexios. SHe should have watched Eva Green in sequel of 300.. thats how she Kassandra should have acted.
@@Tobythefirst1 No, Ubisoft said it themselves Kassandra is canon main character, playable Alexios was added later. All mocap was done by Kassandra's actress, thats why some cutscenes feel weird (femine like) if you play as Alexios, also voice over was done later, also voice over feels kinda off from time to time
@@Tobythefirst1 Well, Kassandra sounds sort of like cheesy Xena. Athios (demios) like a braindead fish lol. I don't know if it was on purpose but I could not take him seriously at all.
It's a great death though. Impaled by his own spear, hanging like that. I loved brasidas man, but i went HA! At that cutscene, but then I got sad. I also went HA when the tree fell on deimos.
@@princessdestiny8647 i know you made this comment three years ago but seriously what does this say in the nicest way possible because it does not make sense to me lol
I considered playing as Alexios for once so I could see sexy villain Kassandra. And then I realized this video existed, so I can have the best of both worlds
@@yasmincampos7831 - Same here. I started replaying as Alexios from the beginning after finally completing the entire game (all DLCs included) as Kassandra...taking nothing away from him here, but her talent range is, IMO, vastly superior. She has a much deeper range of emotion and subtlety which makes the Misthios' story far more compelling.
17:41 is the best line in kassandras part as deimos... the animation lines up perfectly by the maniacal tone by the VA... this is the best part of her as Deimos just because the flow of emotion is just perfect
Like the other dude said alexios just comes off as more of a brutish asshole and almost completely devoid of any empathy. Kass is more emotionally driven and almost out for vengeance after she knows who you are. They both were great villains and cultists in their own ways
The guy actor does Deimos passably, but fell flat as a protagonist. Got through maybe 2 missions on NG+ as Alexios and decided that the acting sucks compared to Melisanthi Mahut, really flat and not nearly as charismatic as Mel, switched back to Kassandra.
@@anonymousgamer3509 I ended up killing her and stentor the mother died as well at least I didn't kill the father also think that was better than watching spoilers prior
@@lol-wg3su I have to watch again but I remember seeing random cult members around Phoibe. Not to say that Deimos didn't orchestrate it but he/she didn't kill Phoibe directly...IIRC. But this debate is exactly what Sokrates and the MC have in trying to sway the crowd, so Deimos is guilty of it regardless.
@Elijah Hunter How? She was behind the MC and Sokrates and...that other guy(forget his name) when they made the climb. There's just no way unless gaming logic. But not realism.
The weird thing is, I played as Kassandra, got to know her, feel close to her, live many things with her. Because of that I can't take her seriously as Deimos. To me, Alexios looks more like the kind of person who would throw a tantrum, get mad, kill someone out of rage... plus he's scarier as Deimos. I love that we had that option though, and I really hope that AC will keep giving us the choice and create badass female characters.
I absolutely love Kassandra as Deimos, although I prefer to play as her. "And what under Helios would you do with yourself if there was peace? Milk the goats." Is my favourite line of hers as the villain, I just laugh at Alexios, with her. Lol.
I played 130 hours as Kassandra and I still think she is the best Deimos. I even considered playing as Alexios once just to get the feeling of seeing her as the hot villain, but thankfully this video exists.
They both play the villain quite differently. Because of the way Kassandra does it, I felt she couldn't be saved. She's sounds too far gone. Whereas Alexios sounds like he wants to be saved, but he's ruled by anger and denial.
Kassandra is my favorite AC character after this game (120 hours) and man I just can’t see myself playing as Alexios for even 3 hours. Kassandras VA just gives so much life to her that I just don’t see myself getting as invested into the game if she’s the villain and not the MC
It's really interesting, how the two characters are so different in the same role with the same writing. One angry and unstable, the other scheming and unsettling. I love them both quite equally, both do brilliant jobs in the role. Though, I have to admit, in every scene but the first, for me, Kassandra takes the cake.
23:20 Here is the lyrics to this song, But first Just read this and close your eyes after. Relax and listen. Dream yourself far far away. So harmonic, so alive and peacefully, so beautiful: Look for the stars Beyond the mountains and the wild sea follow your dreams The bravest hearts The gods will favor those who dare courageously to see their destiny Beautiful island Bathed by the rising sun Destiny and will guide you Travel in unknown parts back to the warmth of the house Through the storms we will ride And battles fought under the furious sky Through watchful eyes Without fear we breathe With silent whispers through the ancient trees where legends grow we live at home Beautiful island Bathed by the rising sun Destiny and will guide you Travel in unknown parts, back to the warmth of the house
kassandras va is... so good. hearing her as deimos is like.... i would never play this game as alexios but damn kassandras va does deimos better. alexios deimos just sounds pitched down and edgy for no reason
I came back to this after the AC Valhalla crossover and I just had to remember how much more interesting of a dynamic Alexios and Kassandra had when Kassandra was Deimos. She was a phenomenal villain in every sense of the word and I loved playing against her and eventually having her as my really mean sister that's on my Spartan ship
Its pretty obvious that people who played x character and had y character as deimos is going to say thats the best way for it. I played as alexios and think deimos is much better as kassandra since ive got over 100 hours into thinking that way around, anyone who played the other way would prefer it like that. obvs there are going to be a couple of people who think that it should be the other way round to how they played but it wont be common
after seeing both versions of Deimos, i think Alexios portrays the better madman. his anger is more brutal and he feels more intimidating in the combat scenes.
Alexios as Deimos is funny for some reason, he looks emo. Kassandra is actually terrifying as Deimos and it makes more sense to be wearing a male cultist mask at the kosmos hideout with Alexios. Plus, I prefer Kassandra as Deimos because even though the cult tortures her, she gets to live the life of a wealthy champion of war instead of an orphan on the streets. Markos seems like he would do perverted things if he was raising Kassandra, that guy has sleazy and creepy written all over him.
I really love the banter at the end when you place the family as Lieutenants in the ship 😂 like true siblings. One thing bothered me though is that with the whole family alive- that should be considered “the perfect ending”. But the first DLC indicated that Kass/Alexios either had the “Tragic ending” since they subtly implied that they didn’t have a “home” and also that one choice dialogue “I don’t have a family” when they were talking to Neema/Natakas. So it is either the Tragic ending with all family members dead that is “canon” in this story OR the DLC is an optional ending to our protagonists. But then, we all know that Aya is a descendant to either of them. So wtf Ubi....having the family hinted dead in that DLC doesn’t sit well with me honestly.
I think the good ending is canon. I think, and call me crazy, that Ubisoft wanted to give us one Assassin's Creed protagonist whose entire family wasn't dead XD
@@walker5192 Oh yeah, you're definitely crazy. Ubisoft doesn't care about its fanbase. At best they wanted to market the option for fans to make their own ending, but what is canon is whatever they decide it is.
I like that Kassandra has a more subtle delivery as Deimos, but Alexios was made for the villain role. This part is definitely more effective with a loose canon. That and I also played as Kassandra for more than a hundred hours and she is one of the few female assassins we get to play as so I kind of have a bias.
Honestly I just came here to see if Alexios still has that really gruff evil voice if he's the hero. He does. I feel like the story just doesn't work as well this way around.
I play as Kassandra, and Alexios as Deimos was a wild, violent, but immature man, who was always angry and waiting to punch everything in front of him. Now I'm seeing Kassandra as Deimos.... And she is quite cool, dry, composed, and cold-blooded. She is the most scary when she is laughing or being sarcastic.
I definately feel like Kassandra is the better main character and Alexios is the better Deimos. Kassandra is though but compassionate, like when Phoibe dies I cried with her. And I felt what she was feeling when she saw her mom again for the first time. Alexios really has the big villain thing on his face, a bit like Gaston in Beauty & The Beast. I'm all for Alexios as Deimos and Kassandra as Hero. Love Kassandra to much go be evil, it just looks wrong 😅
Well I hope your sister is a badass! Sister of my friend is a true coward and she says that she wants better world! She even can't stop her sister from killing an animal.
Playing as Kassandra and this is just so weird seeing her as Deimos but at the same time she's much scarier than Alexios Deimos, she seems cold and calculating. Kudos to the actress for her wonderful voice over
Lol, this just hits so wrong! 😂 I’ve played through this game three times and never could do Alexios as the Eagle Bearer. I gotta admit though, she makes a hellva Deimos as well! Melissanthi Mahut is just reaaaalllly good!
I played as Alexios and somehow Kassandra fit so much better to be the deimos for me (and especially when Alexios tried to persuade her to went back into family)
12:40 Lmao I don't know what they were thinking here. It cracked me up and completely took me out of the moment the first time I saw this, and it still makes me laugh now. The trees sure won this fight.
I played through the story with Kassandra but I still think that both characters are pretty good as Deimos. also I love the acting at 17:43 really creepy ^^
The scene where you upgrade your spear for the first time and Deimos appears before you: any thoughts on who delivered the emotional lines better? Such as ‘c’mon little brother/sister’ or ‘we still found each other’ and then the slap afterwards 😂
This game is honestly so great. It shows how you can tweak simple parts of a game and creat at least 2 time the content for probably 1/10 of the work. I just finished my play through as Kassandra and have yet to touch Alexios. So interested in what this will be. I LOVE everything about Kassandra's character so not sure how I'll feel playing against her. Seriously shout out to the writers and voice actors for making such great characters.
The only reason i'd ever consider playing as Alexios is to experience Kassandra as Deimos myself. I don't think I could for a whole game so thankfully there are cutscenes online.
3:16 Nice tension in the scene ruined by the protag's knee clipping through the fabric. Graphic fidelity keeps getting better... but polygon's still clipping through each other like it's the PS1 era lol.
@@glaptoper There's probably a mod for that somewhere. Sadly I got it on xbox one. At the same time, I'd love to see a cut-up of EB Kassandra chatting with Deimos-Kassandra. So it'd be like talking to different versions of herself.
This is so contrived. If you find your long lost sibling you hug them and join them to find your family. This is just conflict for the sake of conflict.
Finished the main story tonight and came here to see how it could have been. It's straaaaange. Think I picked right though. Also, weird we picked all the same choices :D
After putting about 140 hours into this game as Kassandra seeing Kassandra as Deimos is reeeaaly weird.

I definately feel like Kassandra is the better main character and Alexios is the better Deimos. Kassandra is though but compassionate, like when Phoibe dies I cried with her. And I felt what she was feeling when she saw her mom again for the first time. Alexios really has the big villain thing on his face, a bit like Gaston in Beauty & The Beast. I'm all for Alexios as Deimos and Kassandra as Hero. Love Kassandra to much go be evil, it just looks wrong 😅
Ahhhhhh Damn You Spoiled Phoibes Death For Me😭
Shaun Myers lol shouldn't be watching AC Odyssey videos then mate :(
@@shaunmyers2211 same, I was still hella emotional when it happend though
better as a villain better as heroine
To me the scary thing about her is that she looks like my sister...
Is your sister single? 👀
Well I hope your sister is a badass! Sister of my friend is a true coward and she says that she wants better world! She even can't stop her sister from killing an animal.
And Alexios looks just like my brother
I hated playing as Alexios his face reminds me of my brother when I am Cassandra and he's Demios
Dibs mate
@@jowylongpeen6627 They're talking about a person, not a landmark you can call dibs on. You online creeps have no class.
i'm playing as kassandra and 9:24 is the scariest fucking thing i've ever heard, holy shit.
aah the bronze armor stretching with arm movement @7:02 .. classical era armors were more sophisticated than i thought :D
Playing as Kassandra and this is just so weird seeing her as Deimos but at the same time she's much scarier than Alexios Deimos, she seems cold and calculating. Kudos to the actress for her wonderful voice over
Lol, this just hits so wrong! 😂 I’ve played through this game three times and never could do Alexios as the Eagle Bearer. I gotta admit though, she makes a hellva Deimos as well! Melissanthi Mahut is just reaaaalllly good!
I played as Alexios and somehow Kassandra fit so much better to be the deimos for me (and especially when Alexios tried to persuade her to went back into family)
The most beautiful ending when we save her from her evil self 22:07
19:26
“Why didn’t you tell her the truth”
Idk why she sounds cute when saying that
19:10
That laugh though 😂
3:00 I’m not sus. There’s no way they’re going to vote me.
im glad i picked Kassandra to play with, Alexios is a wayyyyy better Deimos

12:40 Lmao I don't know what they were thinking here. It cracked me up and completely took me out of the moment the first time I saw this, and it still makes me laugh now. The trees sure won this fight.
Deimos is one of the best fighters I have ever seen
I played through the story with Kassandra but I still think that both characters are pretty good as Deimos. also I love the acting at 17:43 really creepy ^^
GOD, KASSANDRA IS SO HOT
bruh chill it’s just pixels lol
Tasty pixels 🥴
Well there's a novelization of this game where Kassandra is the hero and Alexios was Deimos.
So the arrangement in this video is likely non-canon. :/
Are u stupid?
PurgeExclusive it’s true. Kassandra being the eagle bearer is canon.
@Tacitus Killgore
Think whatever you want, sunshine. ;)
I'm watching this on my Xbox one and the notification at 12:53 surprised me
SPOILERS
just watched Perikles being killed in my campaign, but watching it again with Kassandra's as Deimos is just .... Wow
The scene where you upgrade your spear for the first time and Deimos appears before you: any thoughts on who delivered the emotional lines better? Such as ‘c’mon little brother/sister’ or ‘we still found each other’ and then the slap afterwards 😂
Glad to see I'm not the only one regretting playing as Kassandra because we missed the chance to see Evil Kassandra...
Kassandra is the better main character and Alexios is the better Deimos
Evil Kassandra makes Alexios a much better protagonist. Evil Alexios makes Kassandra a more tragic protagonist
Yea I agree too
Yass
I'm not playing as a female when I'm not a female wtf
@@brendanchwascinski2310 Why not? This reasoning makes no sense.
Alexios is my favorite main character period
Deimos!Kassandra has some serious Azula in Avatar energy. She seems both perfectly controlled and absolutely insane.
This game is honestly so great. It shows how you can tweak simple parts of a game and creat at least 2 time the content for probably 1/10 of the work.
I just finished my play through as Kassandra and have yet to touch Alexios.
So interested in what this will be. I LOVE everything about Kassandra's character so not sure how I'll feel playing against her.
Seriously shout out to the writers and voice actors for making such great characters.
The only reason i'd ever consider playing as Alexios is to experience Kassandra as Deimos myself. I don't think I could for a whole game so thankfully there are cutscenes online.
Kassandra needs another game...
If we ain't gettin' a Bayek sequel, we ain't gettin' a Kassandra sequel.
Alexios is the superior Deimos, Kassandra's just too cute.
'You will burn in fucking tartarus you shit' -kasandra whilst beating the shit out of a cultist
@@kiamaria331 have you even heard the term tsundere?
@@blaze-uo5pm but she's not anime tho
The song that plays is ‘A happy family’ but without the intervals. Where can i access this smooth version of ‘A happy family’??
After playing the he as Kassandra and seeing, Alexios is a better Diemos because it's in his voice. He sound piss off everytime he talks
Yeah that's all he gives, a child throwing a pissed off tantrum. He sucked as Deimos.
3:16 Nice tension in the scene ruined by the protag's knee clipping through the fabric.
Graphic fidelity keeps getting better... but polygon's still clipping through each other like it's the PS1 era lol.
Wonder if there's a fanfic where Eagle-Bearer Kassandra finds herself face to face with Deimos-Kassandra.
THAT would be interesting to see/mod.
@@glaptoper There's probably a mod for that somewhere. Sadly I got it on xbox one.
At the same time, I'd love to see a cut-up of EB Kassandra chatting with Deimos-Kassandra. So it'd be like talking to different versions of herself.
I wonder about Kassandra being the Deimos, it led me here because of curiosity.
Now, I ain't complaining.
Even tho I like kassandra as a protagonist more(my opinion) she seriously makes a scarier deimos than alexios
Did you notice? That villain Kassandra wears yellow plaid skirt while villain Alexios wears leather.
You threw me off a *fucking* mountain gets me every time
This is so contrived. If you find your long lost sibling you hug them and join them to find your family. This is just conflict for the sake of conflict.
Kassandra as Deimos is so unsettling
Finished the main story tonight and came here to see how it could have been. It's straaaaange. Think I picked right though. Also, weird we picked all the same choices :D
i realise now that playing this on pc is way better as there is no loading between conversation transitions
Villain: Oh you think friendship is the matter?
Friendship is a true magic and power.
Would be good if there was dlc involved both of them after all the main story is finished
