When it comes to story modern games can never close in on desmond's story, and for combat it is supposed to be focused on stealth not the other way around.
Well AC 2 and Black Flag are the two coolest games of the series to play .And are my favourite games of the series .But do like AC 3 ,Rouge and Origins .
Agree to you, After finishing the trilogy of ezio way back before... After that i never play AC's again, i only watch the walk through in the youtube instead.
I love the assassin fantasy vibe of the old ac’s I think I always will but I also love how that formula is still kinda there in the new ones while mixing in other historical vibes as well
Honestly I would even say that the older ones won out for the open world factor as well. Sure there is larger worlds but you even made the point of how bloated with pointless side content that wound up being. And the older ones also had that factor of including so many iconic and memorable locations and landmarks. It felt far more like an open world based on real world locations hundreds of years in the past, not just giant open worlds that mildly resembled those locales. I can't really bring myself to enjoy the new Assassins Creed games. They may have been more entertaining if they chose to title themselves something completely different rather than capitalizing on a franchise name they don't even resemble anymore
That's a weird take, I'd almost say it's wrong, open world in Origins and Odyssey is not bland very far from it. The freedom to roam around Egypt and ancient Greece is something else entirely. as much as i hate ubisoft, they nailed it in world building. (didn't play Valhalla yet so I'll not comment on that). This is where i say its almost wrong because Old titles like say Ezio's Trilogy are very old games by even today's standard and if they were made today with Origin's engine and expanded the map to match the likes of Odyssey, now that would be the ultimate AC title. Man personally I'd do anything to roam around a fully expanded ottoman Turkey with a touch of Byzantine remnant as mature Ezio in the same engine as origins.
There’s no fucking way dude, 98% of the old games open world IS pointless content and activities the cities are lifeless and the graphics and animations are outdated af, Egypt in ac origins is a fucking masterpiece of an open world
@@kaylawardlaw1571 well i just express my opinion , its depend to ourselves how we like the game I agree the new one good to but for me the problem is the game play they mostly abandoned the old core game play, its just my opinion
I'd love sequel to AC 3 and continuation of connors story, maybe also story of his son/daughter would be cool possibly set during the civil war ... that would be so cool
There is no comparison. The original version was way better. The main characters were solid with great personalities rather than being interchangeable and kind of forgettable.
Origins had solid main character and a decent cast so what’s your point?, the new games have better graphics and animations, better combat, better open worlds and activities, ACTUAL side quests
@@AngelxVillianain’t no way bro said the animations are better in the newer games. Better graphics doesn’t make the game better. And “actual side quests” u mean tasks? The combat in new ac games are just a rip off of God of War.
I loved the old style of AC. It made you feel like an assassin, parkouring from rooftop to rooftop. The old ones had philosophical stories. The new ones just are an attempt to cash off the combat of God of war. The new ones lack any Parkour.
The new ones were created because the old ones were “boring and copy and pasted garbage” by fans and critics. Its their attempt to try something new for the series and imo it did pretty well except for Valhalla.
@@ZombieGangster and odyssey, which lacked ANY assassins and opted for gods and mythology. Even the stealth in odyssey is like etching a chip vertically.
@@dannymankkd8167 Odyssey was actually pretty damn good the second time i played it and the stealth was better than Origins, Valhalla, and the classics combined. You could do “ chain assassinations” and kill like 8 enemys in like 10 seconds. I can understand not having any assassins in the story which made the entire game and its title basically…pointless to the series but it was still a great game imo. I think the whole warrior thing was weird but understandable because of how certain players hate stealth and prefer going head on in a enemy base and going full doom slayer on enemys lol.
@@AngelxVillian Outdated doesn't mean bad and I'd hardly call it boring. The earlier games have the best characters and stories anyway. The Kenway collection still has the best combat and naval systems.. What is boring?
The rpg elements really dampen my enjoyment for the new ones. The stealth especially. It doesn't make sense that I stab a guy in the neck, but he doesn't die immediately if he's two levels higher than me
The whole motive of Assassin's Creed(the game) was to relive our ancestors' memory through Animus, find certain artifacts, and the endless war between Templars and assassins. Back then, Ubisoft took advantage of obscure historical events and characters/personnel while maintaining historical accuracy to write great stories..... But now, we have RPGs FFS, original idea of AC was to follow the life of some assassins through the information in our DNA, where your choices don't matter, you have to do what they did, the way they did, just to reach a certain point of their life where the information could be obtained, your choices never matter because you are living a life that has already been lived. That contradicts the whole concept of RPG....remember in AC 2, you cannot go to Roma if you don't have all 30 codex pages written by Altair. This was a challenge, an element of accuracy for Ezio's life because he entered the room with the necessary information hidden in those codexes, provides some crucial information about Altair, and helps the story to move forward. THAT WAS THE AC WE LOVED. THAT IS THE AC WE NEED.
For those of me who don't have time for farming, the old assassins creed is a masterpiece. You just have to sit back and enjoy the story, carry out missions and explore the map without spending time leveling up and thinking about what builds are good
I feel like Unity and Syndicate were very under-appreciated games, especially when people just moved on from Unity when a sequel to it could have had great potential... because what was it that came after the Revolution...? The Napoleonic Wars, and we see Napoleon with some glowing object when Arno finds that hidden vault in that one mission, and we never see what it actually is, so it was a waste of opportunity there. And in my opinion, Syndicate absolutely nailed it with the twin dynamic of Jacob and Evie, as well as the historical figures of the time period, my favorite bring Charles Dickens, who in my opinion had some of the best side missions over the whole franchise And since then, I've never been a fan of Origins, Odyssey, or Valhalla, as they've seemed to take the skill tree & roleplaying parts of the game more seriously, than the actual Assassin part its supposed to have. Not to mention I feel like Origins wasted opportunity without going into the years following Julius Caesar's death, which would be Octavian at war with Mark Antony and Cleopatra VII before founding the Roman Empire, and how many good time periods there actually are when it comes to the Roman or even Byzantine Empire, that definitely was wasted opportunity...
I think that the biggest problem with the new ones is having "Assassin's Creed" on the name. If they were they own thing people would apreciate them more
@@SpeakNoEvil117 True, but imagine that would be like a spin of series. Something new but set in the same universe. They could call it something like "Hiden ones" or "order of the ancients" or wahtever. And keep the classic Assassins creed on pause a while and intact while doing this new ones. Then after this "trilogy", if they lunch Assassins creed 5, people would be waiting for it and curious. I trully believe thit would be a better way for the series
@@JorgeSilva-qc9fg I don't know, I feel as if something like that wouldn't work, like they've already put quite a bit into the trilogy and it makes them quite a bit of money too, and not to mention how unity and syndicate was left off, I think the direction they went and will continue to go is for the best, because you could tell the classic style of AC was getting stale, for us players and for Ubisoft
In terms of the Combat, I really thought the older games would win it alone with Unity, it introduced far more weapons, and affected how Arno fought, and I even tried replaying several missions with different weapons to see how different they'd be for Arno, and in some ways, it was more fun. And Unity was the first game that actually made it a bit more challenging in combat rather than just endless going behind an enemy and countering an attack to trigger a combo, that really kill all 10 or 20 enemies that were surrounding you in just a minute... I just wish Assassin's Creed would pick a far better timeline, than constantly choosing before the 11th century, there's been good ones that they've missed, and it'd be a far better time to choose one now, rather than wait until this series is too far gone.
The franchise that we knew and loved had died the moment origins released (dont get me wrong, bayek's and aya's story (exclusively), the characters, the soundtracks, the atmosphere and the beautiful world of ancient egypt to explore were amazing, but everything else was bad) and from now on the future 'ac' games will keep soiling the 'world' that the old ac's have built. I mean it's pretty clear to everyone that ubisoft has become a greedy company with a shity environment, lazy devs and useless directors. So the questions are,how we as a community (and mainly old fans) will make ubisoft hear our demands? For how long ubisoft intends to persists on this madness? For how long ubisoft is gonna keep ruining the ac lore? And how do we deal with the toxic members and the kids on this community that they insist on something that is wrong?(i mean,don't get me wrong, you can enjoy anything you want but you can't justify something that is terrible just because it makes you feel better.) Now then,for those who feel the same way as me i thought of a plan so that can make ubisoft at least notice us. For every new ac content ubisoft gives us,we just see a full gameplay on yt, analyzing everything and if the game deserves it or if we see some positive and significant chance then we can buy it, and not just buying it without a second thought the moment it hits the market. Thank you. Also some people who would read this comment will find difficult to understand my argument or my attitude towards those current games. So here my complains: After the release of syndicate, for some god damn reason the popularity of this franchise started to decline (because when you give people something that is actually good they will just find ways to complain for nothing, and when the game becomes shity, then you won't see anyone of them complain,because they cant apriciate actual good things (until its too late)), and while i understand what ubisoft wanted to do,and also knowing the fact that they wanted to explore the isu more instead of the assassins vs templars ,the way they did it and keep doing it was wrong!I mean they represent the isu as gods,when they are clearly an advanced civilization that created humans to be their slaves while using artifacts of advanced technology that they made, to control them and make sure they stay obedient or they killed them. And also the fact that they GOT EXTINCT by solar flares! Think about it. GODS DIEING BY SOMETHING NATURAL (in a way). AND HOW TF ARE THEY ALIVE IN THEESE GAMES IF THEY GONE EXTINCT?! (except juno and minerva that are conscious/trapped in inside that devise desmond touched in the end of ac 3 and died. Plus since desmond has isu dna inside of him, both were able to communicate with him directly or through visions ,etc.) I mean ubisoft literaly had told about their origins during the first games(ac1-ac3).So why do they fuck their own lore so badly? And the same goes for the main protagonists and realism/historical accuracy as well! How we went from removing crossbow for historical accuracy to demigods,mythical monsters and fucking magic? People got to realise that ac is not a fantasy game! It's 98% accuracy and 2% fantasy! And also that ubisoft created a shity main character just for the sake of female representation, without putting time and effort in an actually good backstory, the mc's character and her decisions. Layla was a completely useless mc and throughout the three games she did nothing but bitching while shitting on everybody else while looking like a modern feminist saying i am a strong woman and i don't need anyones help. And not to mention the disrespect to william and desmond miles,while trying to manipulate the situation by saying that abstergo did nothing wrong and they were the ones that saved the world, and i am glad that rebecca called her out for her bullshit. She barely offers anything,and she has the audacity to even speak on the matter. You can't imagine how satisfying it was when she died and how she squirmed. And don't get me started on choosing male or female and choosing lines to say... Anyway that was my complaints about the game's lore. Now as far as reference is concerned,the realism in those games, its just doesn't exist,and yes i am talking about the RPG elements. I don't think that i have to explain this because it is self-evident. If they made the gameplay similar to the ghost of tsushima (but with less RPG) then the games would have been perfect and accurate. Now the best move for ubisoft to redeem itself is to remake the last three games and make them just like the older ones (take unity and syndicate) or declare them as a stand alone titles and start making proper games again. A good start would be an ac game taking place in the greek revolution in 1821 against the ottomans. Thank you for taking time to read my comment.
I just now tried my 1st AC game last month which was Origins & i loved it. From the previous I was in love with the environment b/c i really love looking up history on Egypt. Videos like these made me want to go back & try some of the old ones so i currenty am trying Unity. I just broke out & Parris is jist now open. So far I like Origins waaaaay more. I really feel like i have stuff to do with all the side missions that tie into the story, just as me returning to be a protector. I'm goin to give Unity a little bit more, & if it doesn't hook me, im goin back to Origins & doing everything from scratch b/c with it being my 1st AC game, theres alot of stuff i didn't know until I was close to the end of the story, but now that i know what skills to unlock & what certain things do, its goin to be more fun. Especially with me doing all the side quest this time. Im not a fan of the setting in Unity, & i think my patience isn't as good as it was b/c i ised to be a fan of the hitman series but I dont have the same amount of time to deal all the extra stuff u have to do. I have the last hitman but i didn't complete it, but i completed all the earlier ones. Im a great assassin in Origins. Its just how u go about it. I perfer that way of playing. It kinds reminds me of Watch Dogs 1 compared to Watch Dogs 2. I didn't like Watch Dogs 2 b/c u reall have to follow a set blueprint. With Watch Dogs 2 I get to set my own way. Most of the time i tried not to be seen & used the gadgets, but if i had to I could shoot it out, & i like that style of play where i have the option to do it a way that I wanted to do with no set structure. So i didnt really know why people say the stealth is gone when its not. Its just in Origins the game doesn't have to hold ur hand on doing it in a few of the set ways they gave u to pick from. Playing an old ac game was bugging me to see why everyone says they are so different but now I understand. Its like them making Hitman an Rpg type game where u have to do a bunch of stuff to level up & u no longer have to sneak & assassinate & can just run in a building & shoot it up like gta or something.
There is no assassin in assassin's Creed anymore. To me it it feels more focused on head to head. When levels got involved assassinations went out the window.
@@rickware3695 origins I can kind of forgive as being the start of the assassins however odessy I really can't and same with Valhalla, even though Valhalla has assassins in it it's not the same as being one of them. Mirage looks promising however after the laziness of Valhalla I'm not holding my breath
I like when assassins creed was just assassins creed lol it’s so different now and doesn’t even resemble the franchise anymore. I miss when it was about exploring a city with the white stealth suit and sneaking around and assassinating people with a hidden blade. Not saying I hate the new ones because they are really good it’s just it lost it’s identity along time ago
i loved assassins creed the historical setting,the atmosphere with characters you care about,the si fi elements,the modern day,the tailing missions,the social stealth the music,the pacour the combat in ac 34rogueand unity,the story,the lore,the fascination of questioning everything we ever knew and the worlds that felt alive. i hate it to see how this series became with syndicate to a boring repetitive name. yes assassins creed is not a series anymore its a name to make money. money that ubisoft gets from all those 13 years old dudes that buy this crap like origins
Origins was actually pretty damn good. I dont understand all the hate from it tho? The old ones were criticized because they all felt exactly the same and had yearly releases (just like how CoD is now). I think them going the RPG route and stopping with the yearly releases was a absolute genius idea from Ubisoft……however, i also feel like they should just let the series die already and start making a open world For Honor game instead of another Assassins Creed game.
@@ZombieGangster nope they forced me to do boring sidequests and the origins was in the dlc and the main story just another revenge plot and the characters were not interesting or can you name me the guy who lost its daughter from the crocodile?
@@ZombieGangster open world For honor is an idea I want and love, like they already have a map and it looks beautiful, even when playing a match and looking out if the map, so much wasted potential, like this could've actually been a really good world, multiple environments, plenty of gameplay options and mechanics, I imagine it like Fallout 76, people have forts, you can attack, defend, the possibilities are astounding and endless
I don’t necessarily dislike the new games, but I definitely think the old games should have gotten all five points. They are just so much better than the new ones in nearly every aspect.
As someone who's invested into Stealth in Odyssey, I can confirm that it takes patience, but it's well worth it. I've created a perfect stealth build using the Pilgrim's Armor, which provides free invisibility until you do something high-profile or touch an enemy, and the Korfu Update adds a dagger which, at the cost of limiting your health to 25%, lets you one-shot assassinate any enemy that's equal or below your level. Add in the Kronos Abilities and some engravings, and bammo, you get something that's viable in Conquest Battles and even Boss Battles provided you're nimble enough. It provides one hell of a challenge!
See that sounds nothing like old AC at all. As long as you knew surroundings in the old games it didn’t matter what level or damage output you had. You had one job, to assignation as efficiently as possible.
Then... The good old days of Ubisoft. Back when Assassin’s vs Templars, the Brotherhood stealth and history was primarily focused Now... Assassin's Creed isn't about the Assassin’s vs Templars, the Brotherhood or stealth. Assassin's Creed has turned into an RPG fantasy
I honestly could not agree more, as much as I love the new games there is just something not special about them anymore they focused so much on the fantasy side of assassins creed they completely forgot about the main part of the game being an assassin. In the old games like assassins creed 2 it was all about jumping on different buildings and hiding in plain sight. It was a simple concept that pushed the franchise in the right direction. You don't need to fight medusa to make a good game you just need a loved character like Ezio Auditore. Which was the key success of the franchise. Look I hope with the new assassins creed coming out it will go back to its roots create and a game we all will remember and loved like the Ezio trilogy.
you are contradicting yourself, and you know why? movement and open world go hand in hand. in which is more fun to move, therefore classic had to have won that point according to you
no origins is also not good. i always thought it was but after the 3rd playthrough i realized how fucking boring and annoying it is,that you are forced to do shitty sidequests and spent hours listening to uninteresting characters. and the origins was in a fucking dlc. syndicate was btw also boring as hell like mafia 3 or days gone.
In this era, Assassin’s Creed has very little to do with assassins and more to do with mythological monsters and every historically significant figure being a secret conspiracist. It’s way past its prime and has been dying for years now
If it weren't for the dumb story and horrendous launch, Unity would have been the peak of the franchise. Almost every other aspect of the game is at its best in Unity. Parkour, stealth, customization, skills, combat, world design, etc.
Thank you! Ya know who did the combat roll first? UNITY! A perfect return to ac2-ish. Amazing relationship with elise and arno. The ONLY flaw was the grind for the 120k gear
1, 2, brotherhood, revelations, 3, and black flag are the only amazing games in the franchise imho. Unity and origins are good, valhalla has some okay elements, but the new just doesn't compare to the old
Classic is better. I hate how everything is where I'm a level 15 and the enemy is level 56 and I can't beat him or her. Back in old assassin's creed it was always a fair fight and definitely more grounded and up to base.
As Marry Read once said “To put it blunt, we kill people” That’s all you need to be an assassin. In my opinion it’s interesting to see assassins adapting to different environments. Every setting could work if done right.
Origins was a great game, Odyssey was meh and Valhalla was so good it made me to go back and play previous AC games I missed (Rogue, Unity and Syndicate) and replay Ezio Trillogy just to feel like a Assassin Ubisoft should really focus on creating great story with good side missions rather than creating new games with bigger maps with millions and millions of activities
I don't care which way of the Assassin's Creed is better. I love them both! Both Old and New Assassin's Creed games are definitely and totally Super Cool, Awesome and Badass to me in both ways. Doesn't matter which ways are better.
So far, out of all of them, I have played the original, the Ezio trilogy, and Syndicate, and enjoyed all of them. When Valhalla came out, I played it but stopped. Either I lost interest or just focused on other things in life. While I would like to go back to it, I am afraid I'll lose the use of the DLC I got from the ultimate pack (like the wolf skin for the mount) as well as the dragon skin I bought for the bird companion. I have also thought about going to play Unity, as I have wanted to play the game set in one of the cities I dream of and wish to visit someday. Maybe I just have a preference to the "classic" versions of the series and will go back and play Unity. If anyone can confirm if the DLC I have for Valhalla is would still be accessible if I start a new file, as I really don't remember what happened in the story really, please let me know.
Old Assassins creed: Amazing with details both enviromental and clothing of the Assassins, actually used cloth physics but combat was abit iffy New Assassins Creed: Combat and story are going well however the Devs have been lazy and do not implement cloth physics anymore (it's sad when AC1 had better physics), the enviroments are detailed but also feel off at some points as well with lots of random floor clipping leading to a load game (unless you were unlucky and it auto saved as you clipped through like me then had to start over all again)
@@rijulchhabra1725 no I don't need to mention the story at all for the old ones cause they were amazing stories, though I couldn't really think of many pluses for the new ones and story was something that's semi-decent in them that's why I only said "well" instead of good 🤣 Honestly the old ones have ALOT more love and care put into them and the new ones are so lazy they couldn't take 10 minutes to add a skeleton to the main characters model so they could have cloth physics, I studied game design for 6 years and have been working on games since so when I see laziness in games I tend to call it out and the simplest fix for them (the cloth physics) they can't even be bothered doing. Honestly I still play AC1 through to origins because all of them are great games (probably an unpopular opinion but I do enjoy unity and syndicate alot and origins was a decently fresh take on it plus origins had wonderful cloth physics and a pretty good story)
I agree with you here and that was my whole point, old ones are more rich and grounded stories, where new ones are just stretched out (origin had it's moment). Also, I also enjoyed Unity so damn much, it is my top 3 AC game tbh, when it comes to gameplay(if not story, which is still better than last 2 entries)...... and I commented initially because the 'story' as a factor was only mentioned for new games in your original comment.
the saddest reality for me personally is that it took me finishing Valhalla to realize how much i hated the newer AC games...it just isn't the same anymore
as much as original ACs give me nostalgia overloads, they were all so easy, no difficulty settings. I'd love an "original" assassin's creed but with some challenge settings.
I never had problems with climbing in the older games my guy never fell to his death and in AC Valhalla I chasing down a paper and character will jump to something I did not want it to even when I am jumping in the right direction
I think Unisoft might even realize that older AC was way better so that's why in Valhalla, they brought the topic of changing Deamond's fate. So if Unisoft thinks of diversing the path where Desmond didn't save the word and is alive. It may lead to sequel or cross over of AC3,Unity and Rogue where Connor and Arno finally face of against Shay.
you know what, I'm just gonna say it. They only let the original games win because otherwise they were gonna get yelled at by these nostalgic and toxic hardheads who are afraid of change.
I really like the newer games, the older ones we good but playing them now they can be out dated and boring, I know they can’t help when they were released , but I love Odyssey and Origins
What pisses me off is that the new ones exist because everyone was bitching about how they were the same thing. Remember all the hate unity and syndicate got. Then ubi decided to make a change and now the same people are complaining again
The RPG trilogy are pretty good games just not good AC games and when you have not only a great game but a great AC game you get gaming perfection that’s makes some of the best memories you could ask for as a gamer
anyone else had trouble with hearing what was said in the video, I think the audio equipment might be failing on MojoPlays and every other WatchMojo video
They can just rename the new games to be maybe ‘Fighter’s Creed,’ rather than Assassin’s Creed; because these newer entries are very far from an assassin game. They are very good games, just terrible assassin’s creed games. So there’s just no comparison anyway.
@@FlaviusConstantinus306 Oh! I love that game so,so much. Ghost of Tsushima. Is my all time favorite game of 2020. Heck I wish the assassin‘s creed games were like “Ghost”.
"It's still game where you can completely ignore stealth" Sorry to say this, but all of the assassin's creed games ever have been like this, aside from few sections with forced "stealth tailing missions" you could always just go guns blazing vs army of enemies, and hate to admit it but that is how I played old games, I just spammed counter parry with hidden blade :) Probably only game where I actually preferred stealth completely over fighting has been Unity, and maybe Origins (yes Origins had good stealth, sue me - it had those sleep darts that you could throw on fire, berserk darts, good range solution with arrows and similar things like this which enabled for some cool moves)
Really looking at this comparison it seems like Unity was actually a great blend of these two sides of AC, leaning more towards the classic side that we all love. If it could be more polished, Unity's formula should be replicated
I love both styles of AC. The older ones focused more on story and stealth imo and it’s great! But on the other hand, the new ones are giant epics, yeah some of the missions get repetitive to a degree and there is a ton of farming of resources but I personally like that. If I pay $70 for a game, I want that game to take me 100+ hours to beat so these are perfect for that. I feel both types are very good. I feel like if the new ones weren’t labeled AC games they would be MUCH more appreciated IMO
What I really enjoyed about assassins creed one was the different battle mechanics and the connection to the animus. How you knew you were in the animus because of the glitches. The interesting extra mini features like pressing any button after a glitch to get a new camera angle. How if you did something wrong like punch a bystander, there was a glitch because there was technically an error with the memory and the animus as Altair didn’t actually do that action. Although the graphics are better, there is so much extra stuff that everything just looks too unclear and weird. On top of all that. The music was phenomenal. Adding the camera angles with the music. The game was an actual experience. With small details in the original that the new series have forgotten about. The new series just seem lazy. And redundant and boring. The story with the animus and the on going adventure after escaping abstergo. Or the death of Desmond and what really happens after is just kinda. Half assed. Just. Lost and. It’s a shame the developers put no passion. Also the better features of assassins creed 2 was the additional of accessible historical information in a interesting manner delivered by Shawn that just added an ummmph that just made me a nerd for history.
I have played almost all of the creeds, and have found Odyssey to be my favorite due to my liking of Greek mythology. Currently on origins and finding Egypt to be awesome as well!
Unity /Ac 2 and black flag was my best open world experience especially unity , it was small concise well animated , I was so inspired by unity’s and Ac2 world designs , I’m working on a medieval comic with those qualities
last good ac was unity. with syndicate it all went to be just boring and repetitive and with origins it had some good ideas but they forced me to do boring stuff

there’s assassins creed, and then there’s demigod and viking simulator, nothing about them is assassins creed
When it comes to story modern games can never close in on desmond's story, and for combat it is supposed to be focused on stealth not the other way around.
Well AC 2 and Black Flag are the two coolest games of the series to play .And are my favourite games of the series .But do like AC 3 ,Rouge and Origins .
Classics Are Legendary than New.
Assassin's Creed II is one of my favourite games of all time so for me the classic Assassin's Creed (the Ezio Trilogy) will always be the best :)
I agree, I miss Ezio and Desmond
Agree to you, After finishing the trilogy of ezio way back before... After that i never play AC's again, i only watch the walk through in the youtube instead.
yesssss
In my opinion i think Brotherhood is better than ACII
Yup
I like them both styles, but I do miss the old style of how assassins creed was done and they bring it back
All the more better if valhalla is a spin off and assassins creed 7/"sengoku" would both exist
The new generation will never know what it truly was like to be an Assassin.
The real ones know what I mean
I love the assassin fantasy vibe of the old ac’s
I think I always will but I also love how that formula is still kinda there in the new ones while mixing in other historical vibes as well
@@versatilelord8893 it’s not even close to there
You mean the old generation. Those game are supposed to happened before the original saga
here here🍻

No, absolutely not

The freedom to roam around Egypt and ancient Greece is something else entirely. as much as i hate ubisoft, they nailed it in world building. (didn't play Valhalla yet so I'll not comment on that).
This is where i say its almost wrong because Old titles like say Ezio's Trilogy are very old games by even today's standard and if they were made today with Origin's engine and expanded the map to match the likes of Odyssey, now that would be the ultimate AC title.
Man personally I'd do anything to roam around a fully expanded ottoman Turkey with a touch of Byzantine remnant as mature Ezio in the same engine as origins.
There’s no fucking way dude, 98% of the old games open world IS pointless content and activities the cities are lifeless and the graphics and animations are outdated af, Egypt in ac origins is a fucking masterpiece of an open world
@@AngelxVillian well said, the old open world is lifeless
The classic Assassin's creed was way better I liked Syndicate but for me the series lost its feel after Black Flag. Black Flag was the last great one

title should be assassins creed vs whatever the shit it is
I hope that the old combat system stays if we get the dream AC sequel.
An AC game with Connor, Arno and Shay
Exactly
Ac civil war featuring Connor, shay an idk if Arno is alive then
@@davidquellmalz305 SPOILER ALERT
The last target you assassinate in rogue is Arno's Father.
@@thewendigonerd5104 🤣🤣🤣
I'd love sequel to AC 3 and continuation of connors story, maybe also story of his son/daughter would be cool possibly set during the civil war ... that would be so cool
There is no comparison. The original version was way better. The main characters were solid with great personalities rather than being interchangeable and kind of forgettable.
100%. Couldn't tell you a single seige I did in valhalla.
Origins had solid main character and a decent cast so what’s your point?, the new games have better graphics and animations, better combat, better open worlds and activities, ACTUAL side quests
@@AngelxVillianain’t no way bro said the animations are better in the newer games. Better graphics doesn’t make the game better. And “actual side quests” u mean tasks? The combat in new ac games are just a rip off of God of War.
@@AngelxVillian better graphics? are you blind? Look at Unity and look at modern ass.c games
I loved the old style of AC. It made you feel like an assassin, parkouring from rooftop to rooftop. The old ones had philosophical stories. The new ones just are an attempt to cash off the combat of God of war. The new ones lack any Parkour.
Yeah there is less Parkour and more mountain climbing there is nothing fluid about its Parkour
@@MaazKhan-kk3sk probably because their historical settings don’t really make for that much parkour 🤷♂️
You know... just a thought
The new ones were created because the old ones were “boring and copy and pasted garbage” by fans and critics. Its their attempt to try something new for the series and imo it did pretty well except for Valhalla.
@@ZombieGangster and odyssey, which lacked ANY assassins and opted for gods and mythology. Even the stealth in odyssey is like etching a chip vertically.
@@dannymankkd8167 Odyssey was actually pretty damn good the second time i played it and the stealth was better than Origins, Valhalla, and the classics combined. You could do “ chain assassinations” and kill like 8 enemys in like 10 seconds. I can understand not having any assassins in the story which made the entire game and its title basically…pointless to the series but it was still a great game imo. I think the whole warrior thing was weird but understandable because of how certain players hate stealth and prefer going head on in a enemy base and going full doom slayer on enemys lol.
The Ezio and Kenway collections are all you need.
Dorian and Frye too
@@arpnecr true
@@arpnecr you dont really need Frye twins..
You mean the outdated and boring worlds of ac2, brotherhood, and revelations?
@@AngelxVillian Outdated doesn't mean bad and I'd hardly call it boring. The earlier games have the best characters and stories anyway. The Kenway collection still has the best combat and naval systems.. What is boring?
The rpg elements really dampen my enjoyment for the new ones. The stealth especially. It doesn't make sense that I stab a guy in the neck, but he doesn't die immediately if he's two levels higher than me
It shats on Assassin's Creed. Why? For one the concept of rpg breaks a few rules of Assassin's Creed, I'll list them out....EVERYTHING!!!
Glad they removed that shitty level system in valhalla
@@rocktheconqueror6903 Uh…about that
The whole motive of Assassin's Creed(the game) was to relive our ancestors' memory through Animus, find certain artifacts, and the endless war between Templars and assassins. Back then, Ubisoft took advantage of obscure historical events and characters/personnel while maintaining historical accuracy to write great stories..... But now, we have RPGs FFS, original idea of AC was to follow the life of some assassins through the information in our DNA, where your choices don't matter, you have to do what they did, the way they did, just to reach a certain point of their life where the information could be obtained, your choices never matter because you are living a life that has already been lived. That contradicts the whole concept of RPG....remember in AC 2, you cannot go to Roma if you don't have all 30 codex pages written by Altair. This was a challenge, an element of accuracy for Ezio's life because he entered the room with the necessary information hidden in those codexes, provides some crucial information about Altair, and helps the story to move forward. THAT WAS THE AC WE LOVED. THAT IS THE AC WE NEED.
For those of me who don't have time for farming, the old assassins creed is a masterpiece. You just have to sit back and enjoy the story, carry out missions and explore the map without spending time leveling up and thinking about what builds are good
I feel like Unity and Syndicate were very under-appreciated games, especially when people just moved on from Unity when a sequel to it could have had great potential... because what was it that came after the Revolution...? The Napoleonic Wars, and we see Napoleon with some glowing object when Arno finds that hidden vault in that one mission, and we never see what it actually is, so it was a waste of opportunity there.
And in my opinion, Syndicate absolutely nailed it with the twin dynamic of Jacob and Evie, as well as the historical figures of the time period, my favorite bring Charles Dickens, who in my opinion had some of the best side missions over the whole franchise
And since then, I've never been a fan of Origins, Odyssey, or Valhalla, as they've seemed to take the skill tree & roleplaying parts of the game more seriously, than the actual Assassin part its supposed to have.
Not to mention I feel like Origins wasted opportunity without going into the years following Julius Caesar's death, which would be Octavian at war with Mark Antony and Cleopatra VII before founding the Roman Empire, and how many good time periods there actually are when it comes to the Roman or even Byzantine Empire, that definitely was wasted opportunity...
OG classic assassin's creed games had way more meat to the AC bone, even though I do enjoy AC Valhalla
It’s obvious that the Classic Assassin’s Creed is superior, while the new ones didn’t feel like Assassin’s Creed at all.
I think that the biggest problem with the new ones is having "Assassin's Creed" on the name.
If they were they own thing people would apreciate them more
I recently replayed AC2 on Switch.. how the series has fallen, lol.
@@JorgeSilva-qc9fg but it wouldn't make sense would it, considering how much lore and whatnot is actually in the games
@@SpeakNoEvil117 True, but imagine that would be like a spin of series.
Something new but set in the same universe. They could call it something like "Hiden ones" or "order of the ancients" or wahtever. And keep the classic Assassins creed on pause a while and intact while doing this new ones. Then after this "trilogy", if they lunch Assassins creed 5, people would be waiting for it and curious. I trully believe thit would be a better way for the series
@@JorgeSilva-qc9fg I don't know, I feel as if something like that wouldn't work, like they've already put quite a bit into the trilogy and it makes them quite a bit of money too, and not to mention how unity and syndicate was left off, I think the direction they went and will continue to go is for the best, because you could tell the classic style of AC was getting stale, for us players and for Ubisoft
The original AC games up to Unity is where the series was at its best.
I have 1 - Syndicate and I love them.
Old ACs have 2 things the latests don’t.
Parkour and ASSASSINS
and story XD
The second one is the most important thing, is like i play watch dogs without hackers
I love both the classic and new Assassin's Creed games but I prefer to go back to the classic Assassin's Creed and be a assassin
In terms of the Combat, I really thought the older games would win it alone with Unity, it introduced far more weapons, and affected how Arno fought, and I even tried replaying several missions with different weapons to see how different they'd be for Arno, and in some ways, it was more fun.
And Unity was the first game that actually made it a bit more challenging in combat rather than just endless going behind an enemy and countering an attack to trigger a combo, that really kill all 10 or 20 enemies that were surrounding you in just a minute... I just wish Assassin's Creed would pick a far better timeline, than constantly choosing before the 11th century, there's been good ones that they've missed, and it'd be a far better time to choose one now, rather than wait until this series is too far gone.
The franchise that we knew and loved had died the moment origins released (dont get me wrong, bayek's and aya's story (exclusively), the characters, the soundtracks, the atmosphere and the beautiful world of ancient egypt to explore were amazing, but everything else was bad) and from now on the future 'ac' games will keep soiling the 'world' that the old ac's have built. I mean it's pretty clear to everyone that ubisoft has become a greedy company with a shity environment, lazy devs and useless directors. So the questions are,how we as a community (and mainly old fans) will make ubisoft hear our demands? For how long ubisoft intends to persists on this madness? For how long ubisoft is gonna keep ruining the ac lore? And how do we deal with the toxic members and the kids on this community that they insist on something that is wrong?(i mean,don't get me wrong, you can enjoy anything you want but you can't justify something that is terrible just because it makes you feel better.) Now then,for those who feel the same way as me i thought of a plan so that can make ubisoft at least notice us. For every new ac content ubisoft gives us,we just see a full gameplay on yt, analyzing everything and if the game deserves it or if we see some positive and significant chance then we can buy it, and not just buying it without a second thought the moment it hits the market. Thank you.
Also some people who would read this comment will find difficult to understand my argument or my attitude towards those current games. So here my complains: After the release of syndicate, for some god damn reason the popularity of this franchise started to decline (because when you give people something that is actually good they will just find ways to complain for nothing, and when the game becomes shity, then you won't see anyone of them complain,because they cant apriciate actual good things (until its too late)), and while i understand what ubisoft wanted to do,and also knowing the fact that they wanted to explore the isu more instead of the assassins vs templars ,the way they did it and keep doing it was wrong!I mean they represent the isu as gods,when they are clearly an advanced civilization that created humans to be their slaves while using artifacts of advanced technology that they made, to control them and make sure they stay obedient or they killed them. And also the fact that they GOT EXTINCT by solar flares! Think about it. GODS DIEING BY SOMETHING NATURAL (in a way). AND HOW TF ARE THEY ALIVE IN THEESE GAMES IF THEY GONE EXTINCT?! (except juno and minerva that are conscious/trapped in inside that devise desmond touched in the end of ac 3 and died. Plus since desmond has isu dna inside of him, both were able to communicate with him directly or through visions ,etc.)
I mean ubisoft literaly had told about their origins during the first games(ac1-ac3).So why do they fuck their own lore so badly?
And the same goes for the main protagonists and realism/historical accuracy as well! How we went from removing crossbow for historical accuracy to demigods,mythical monsters and fucking magic? People got to realise that ac is not a fantasy game! It's 98% accuracy and 2% fantasy! And also that ubisoft created a shity main character just for the sake of female representation, without putting time and effort in an actually good backstory, the mc's character and her decisions. Layla was a completely useless mc and throughout the three games she did nothing but bitching while shitting on everybody else while looking like a modern feminist saying i am a strong woman and i don't need anyones help. And not to mention the disrespect to william and desmond miles,while trying to manipulate the situation by saying that abstergo did nothing wrong and they were the ones that saved the world, and i am glad that rebecca called her out for her bullshit. She barely offers anything,and she has the audacity to even speak on the matter. You can't imagine how satisfying it was when she died and how she squirmed. And don't get me started on choosing male or female and choosing lines to say...
Anyway that was my complaints about the game's lore. Now as far as reference is concerned,the realism in those games, its just doesn't exist,and yes i am talking about the RPG elements. I don't think that i have to explain this because it is self-evident. If they made the gameplay similar to the ghost of tsushima (but with less RPG) then the games would have been perfect and accurate. Now the best move for ubisoft to redeem itself is to remake the last three games and make them just like the older ones (take unity and syndicate) or declare them as a stand alone titles and start making proper games again. A good start would be an ac game taking place in the greek revolution in 1821 against the ottomans.
Thank you for taking time to read my comment.
Bro I couldn't have said that better
I just now tried my 1st AC game last month which was Origins & i loved it. From the previous I was in love with the environment b/c i really love looking up history on Egypt. Videos like these made me want to go back & try some of the old ones so i currenty am trying Unity. I just broke out & Parris is jist now open. So far I like Origins waaaaay more. I really feel like i have stuff to do with all the side missions that tie into the story, just as me returning to be a protector. I'm goin to give Unity a little bit more, & if it doesn't hook me, im goin back to Origins & doing everything from scratch b/c with it being my 1st AC game, theres alot of stuff i didn't know until I was close to the end of the story, but now that i know what skills to unlock & what certain things do, its goin to be more fun. Especially with me doing all the side quest this time. Im not a fan of the setting in Unity, & i think my patience isn't as good as it was b/c i ised to be a fan of the hitman series but I dont have the same amount of time to deal all the extra stuff u have to do. I have the last hitman but i didn't complete it, but i completed all the earlier ones. Im a great assassin in Origins. Its just how u go about it. I perfer that way of playing. It kinds reminds me of Watch Dogs 1 compared to Watch Dogs 2. I didn't like Watch Dogs 2 b/c u reall have to follow a set blueprint. With Watch Dogs 2 I get to set my own way. Most of the time i tried not to be seen & used the gadgets, but if i had to I could shoot it out, & i like that style of play where i have the option to do it a way that I wanted to do with no set structure. So i didnt really know why people say the stealth is gone when its not. Its just in Origins the game doesn't have to hold ur hand on doing it in a few of the set ways they gave u to pick from. Playing an old ac game was bugging me to see why everyone says they are so different but now I understand. Its like them making Hitman an Rpg type game where u have to do a bunch of stuff to level up & u no longer have to sneak & assassinate & can just run in a building & shoot it up like gta or something.
There is no assassin in assassin's Creed anymore. To me it it feels more focused on head to head. When levels got involved assassinations went out the window.
Ofc, its literally viking age
@@ER0S4GE you realize we are not just talking about Valhalla. They started this style back on origins.
@@rickware3695 origins I can kind of forgive as being the start of the assassins however odessy I really can't and same with Valhalla, even though Valhalla has assassins in it it's not the same as being one of them.
Mirage looks promising however after the laziness of Valhalla I'm not holding my breath
New Assassin's Creed is not Assassin's Creed.
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks that. I told my brother the same thing.
I like when assassins creed was just assassins creed lol it’s so different now and doesn’t even resemble the franchise anymore. I miss when it was about exploring a city with the white stealth suit and sneaking around and assassinating people with a hidden blade. Not saying I hate the new ones because they are really good it’s just it lost it’s identity along time ago
Origins and Valhalla are alright, Odyssey is the worst game ever, breaks old AC lore, and is a grindy mess that overstays its welcome
i loved assassins creed the historical setting,the atmosphere with characters you care about,the si fi elements,the modern day,the tailing missions,the social stealth the music,the pacour the combat in ac 34rogueand unity,the story,the lore,the fascination of questioning everything we ever knew and the worlds that felt alive.
i hate it to see how this series became with syndicate to a boring repetitive name.
yes assassins creed is not a series anymore its a name to make money. money that ubisoft gets from all those 13 years old dudes that buy this crap like origins
Origins was actually pretty damn good. I dont understand all the hate from it tho? The old ones were criticized because they all felt exactly the same and had yearly releases (just like how CoD is now). I think them going the RPG route and stopping with the yearly releases was a absolute genius idea from Ubisoft……however, i also feel like they should just let the series die already and start making a open world For Honor game instead of another Assassins Creed game.
@@ZombieGangster nope they forced me to do boring sidequests and the origins was in the dlc and the main story just another revenge plot and the characters were not interesting or can you name me the guy who lost its daughter from the crocodile?
@@ZombieGangster open world For honor is an idea I want and love, like they already have a map and it looks beautiful, even when playing a match and looking out if the map, so much wasted potential, like this could've actually been a really good world, multiple environments, plenty of gameplay options and mechanics, I imagine it like Fallout 76, people have forts, you can attack, defend, the possibilities are astounding and endless
Rouge will always be my favorite of them all.
I don’t necessarily dislike the new games, but I definitely think the old games should have gotten all five points. They are just so much better than the new ones in nearly every aspect.
As someone who's invested into Stealth in Odyssey, I can confirm that it takes patience, but it's well worth it. I've created a perfect stealth build using the Pilgrim's Armor, which provides free invisibility until you do something high-profile or touch an enemy, and the Korfu Update adds a dagger which, at the cost of limiting your health to 25%, lets you one-shot assassinate any enemy that's equal or below your level. Add in the Kronos Abilities and some engravings, and bammo, you get something that's viable in Conquest Battles and even Boss Battles provided you're nimble enough. It provides one hell of a challenge!
See that sounds nothing like old AC at all. As long as you knew surroundings in the old games it didn’t matter what level or damage output you had. You had one job, to assignation as efficiently as possible.
@@raven241 I know. It's why the health trade-off was totally worth it imo.
The fact that the rpgs games ,especially odyssey) got any praise is ridiculous
@@FlaviusConstantinus306 exactly, and that they completely ruined and contradicted previously established lore
I’m a classic fan of assassin’s creed
The classic games win all of the categories
Then...
The good old days of Ubisoft.
Back when Assassin’s vs Templars, the Brotherhood stealth and history was primarily focused
Now...
Assassin's Creed isn't about the Assassin’s vs Templars, the Brotherhood or stealth.
Assassin's Creed has turned into an RPG fantasy
I honestly could not agree more, as much as I love the new games there is just something not special about them anymore they focused so much on the fantasy side of assassins creed they completely forgot about the main part of the game being an assassin. In the old games like assassins creed 2 it was all about jumping on different buildings and hiding in plain sight. It was a simple concept that pushed the franchise in the right direction. You don't need to fight medusa to make a good game you just need a loved character like Ezio Auditore. Which was the key success of the franchise. Look I hope with the new assassins creed coming out it will go back to its roots create and a game we all will remember and loved like the Ezio trilogy.
The combat looked and felt soooo much better than the newer ones
Valhalla was the first assassins creed game I didn’t finish 🤷♀️ I miss actually playing as an assassin
Unity had the perfect combat in my opinion
you are contradicting yourself, and you know why? movement and open world go hand in hand.
in which is more fun to move, therefore classic had to have won that point according to you
Ac4, Rogue, and Ac 3 hands down
AC Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla are great games just not great AC games, but they are fun to play nonetheless.
no origins is also not good. i always thought it was but after the 3rd playthrough i realized how fucking boring and annoying it is,that you are forced to do shitty sidequests and spent hours listening to uninteresting characters. and the origins was in a fucking dlc. syndicate was btw also boring as hell like mafia 3 or days gone.
In this era, Assassin’s Creed has very little to do with assassins and more to do with mythological monsters and every historically significant figure being a secret conspiracist. It’s way past its prime and has been dying for years now
Both. I love them all equally
You’re a real one bro
Same here
@@versatilelord8893 Good to see a kindred spirit 😁
New ACs cant imagine to hold a candle to the OGs
i like ignoring the stealth because i have no patience
Brotherhood, AC 3, AC 3 Remastered, Liberation Remastered, and Unity are definitely my favorites of the classics.
If it weren't for the dumb story and horrendous launch, Unity would have been the peak of the franchise. Almost every other aspect of the game is at its best in Unity. Parkour, stealth, customization, skills, combat, world design, etc.
Thank you! Ya know who did the combat roll first? UNITY! A perfect return to ac2-ish. Amazing relationship with elise and arno. The ONLY flaw was the grind for the 120k gear
@@stonerjedi1710 Just do the Luxembourg palace mission a bunch of times.
I miss Desmond Miles.
1, 2, brotherhood, revelations, 3, and black flag are the only amazing games in the franchise imho. Unity and origins are good, valhalla has some okay elements, but the new just doesn't compare to the old
except story, Unity was just a pure Assassin experience!!!!..... after they fixed the bugs, I mean.
Classic is better. I hate how everything is where I'm a level 15 and the enemy is level 56 and I can't beat him or her. Back in old assassin's creed it was always a fair fight and definitely more grounded and up to base.
I prefer the old AC games and after the leaks of AC Rift I’m looking forward to it
As Marry Read once said “To put it blunt, we kill people”
That’s all you need to be an assassin. In my opinion it’s interesting to see assassins adapting to different environments. Every setting could work if done right.
Origins was a great game, Odyssey was meh and Valhalla was so good it made me to go back and play previous AC games I missed (Rogue, Unity and Syndicate) and replay Ezio Trillogy just to feel like a Assassin
Ubisoft should really focus on creating great story with good side missions rather than creating new games with bigger maps with millions and millions of activities
I played every single Assassin’s Creed, I got the Platinum trophy for AC2, Black Flag, Unity, and Syndicate. The last AC I touched was Origins.
same like me but syndicate was the beginning of the end. syndicate was so boring

Thats The Truth
@@terencehill5392 Damn Straight! Now you're talking my language! 😁😄😊☺️👍
So far, out of all of them, I have played the original, the Ezio trilogy, and Syndicate, and enjoyed all of them. When Valhalla came out, I played it but stopped. Either I lost interest or just focused on other things in life. While I would like to go back to it, I am afraid I'll lose the use of the DLC I got from the ultimate pack (like the wolf skin for the mount) as well as the dragon skin I bought for the bird companion. I have also thought about going to play Unity, as I have wanted to play the game set in one of the cities I dream of and wish to visit someday. Maybe I just have a preference to the "classic" versions of the series and will go back and play Unity.
If anyone can confirm if the DLC I have for Valhalla is would still be accessible if I start a new file, as I really don't remember what happened in the story really, please let me know.
I totally agree. the classic are better for their story and focus on Assassination....in an Assassins game.
Behold the one of the Best Game Franchises ever ❤️
Classic Assasins Creed has always been the best.
When they switched the formula is when it got too, idk the word but it got too bland.????
Old Assassins creed: Amazing with details both enviromental and clothing of the Assassins, actually used cloth physics but combat was abit iffy
New Assassins Creed: Combat and story are going well however the Devs have been lazy and do not implement cloth physics anymore (it's sad when AC1 had better physics), the enviroments are detailed but also feel off at some points as well with lots of random floor clipping leading to a load game (unless you were unlucky and it auto saved as you clipped through like me then had to start over all again)
No, absolutely not
Did you just say that story is going well in New games but not in old ones? 🤣
Did you just say that story is going well in New games but not in old ones? 🤣
@@rijulchhabra1725 no I don't need to mention the story at all for the old ones cause they were amazing stories, though I couldn't really think of many pluses for the new ones and story was something that's semi-decent in them that's why I only said "well" instead of good 🤣
Honestly the old ones have ALOT more love and care put into them and the new ones are so lazy they couldn't take 10 minutes to add a skeleton to the main characters model so they could have cloth physics, I studied game design for 6 years and have been working on games since so when I see laziness in games I tend to call it out and the simplest fix for them (the cloth physics) they can't even be bothered doing.
Honestly I still play AC1 through to origins because all of them are great games (probably an unpopular opinion but I do enjoy unity and syndicate alot and origins was a decently fresh take on it plus origins had wonderful cloth physics and a pretty good story)
I agree with you here and that was my whole point, old ones are more rich and grounded stories, where new ones are just stretched out (origin had it's moment). Also, I also enjoyed Unity so damn much, it is my top 3 AC game tbh, when it comes to gameplay(if not story, which is still better than last 2 entries)......
and I commented initially because the 'story' as a factor was only mentioned for new games in your original comment.
the saddest reality for me personally is that it took me finishing Valhalla to realize how much i hated the newer AC games...it just isn't the same anymore
Why do we even call the newer games as Assassin's Creed
Ezio Auditore da la la la forever best game. They should have mention exploring renaissance. Florence, Venice and Rome were always fun.

as much as original ACs give me nostalgia overloads, they were all so easy, no difficulty settings.
I'd love an "original" assassin's creed but with some challenge settings.
Boy do i miss the days of AC2 & ACB. Surei freaking loved AC4 & Unity, ever since Origins i dont like how AC moved away from what it was originally.
I never had problems with climbing in the older games my guy never fell to his death and in AC Valhalla I chasing down a paper and character will jump to something I did not want it to even when I am jumping in the right direction
I think Unisoft might even realize that older AC was way better so that's why in Valhalla, they brought the topic of changing Deamond's fate. So if Unisoft thinks of diversing the path where Desmond didn't save the word and is alive. It may lead to sequel or cross over of AC3,Unity and Rogue where Connor and Arno finally face of against Shay.
I still play the Classic Assassin's Creed games. They are Assassin's Creed!
you know what, I'm just gonna say it. They only let the original games win because otherwise they were gonna get yelled at by these nostalgic and toxic hardheads who are afraid of change.
Nice bait.
I really like the newer games, the older ones we good but playing them now they can be out dated and boring, I know they can’t help when they were released , but I love Odyssey and Origins
What pisses me off is that the new ones exist because everyone was bitching about how they were the same thing. Remember all the hate unity and syndicate got. Then ubi decided to make a change and now the same people are complaining again
The RPG trilogy are pretty good games just not good AC games and when you have not only a great game but a great AC game you get gaming perfection that’s makes some of the best memories you could ask for as a gamer
anyone else had trouble with hearing what was said in the video, I think the audio equipment might be failing on MojoPlays and every other WatchMojo video
They can just rename the new games to be maybe ‘Fighter’s Creed,’ rather than Assassin’s Creed; because these newer entries are very far from an assassin game. They are very good games, just terrible assassin’s creed games. So there’s just no comparison anyway.
Assassin‘s Creed needs to go to Asia now! So much beautiful stories over there come on go to Japan go to China Korea so much over there.
@@FlaviusConstantinus306 No! Want to see this franchise take place somewhere else. Europe is getting boring.
@@FlaviusConstantinus306 Oh! I love that game so,so much. Ghost of Tsushima. Is my all time favorite game of 2020. Heck I wish the assassin‘s creed games were like “Ghost”.
The only one of the new AC that deserves a seque is Origins. I feel like Altair is from Bayek's Branch and Ezio from Aya's branch
"It's still game where you can completely ignore stealth"
Sorry to say this, but all of the assassin's creed games ever have been like this, aside from few sections with forced "stealth tailing missions" you could always just go guns blazing vs army of enemies, and hate to admit it but that is how I played old games, I just spammed counter parry with hidden blade :)
Probably only game where I actually preferred stealth completely over fighting has been Unity, and maybe Origins (yes Origins had good stealth, sue me - it had those sleep darts that you could throw on fire, berserk darts, good range solution with arrows and similar things like this which enabled for some cool moves)
Really looking at this comparison it seems like Unity was actually a great blend of these two sides of AC, leaning more towards the classic side that we all love. If it could be more polished, Unity's formula should be replicated
most mojo play's contents are about assassins creed. change my mind.
Of the newer games odyssey is definitely my favorite
I love both styles of AC. The older ones focused more on story and stealth imo and it’s great! But on the other hand, the new ones are giant epics, yeah some of the missions get repetitive to a degree and there is a ton of farming of resources but I personally like that. If I pay $70 for a game, I want that game to take me 100+ hours to beat so these are perfect for that. I feel both types are very good. I feel like if the new ones weren’t labeled AC games they would be MUCH more appreciated IMO
Yes. Fucking Ybisoft!
What I really enjoyed about assassins creed one was the different battle mechanics and the connection to the animus. How you knew you were in the animus because of the glitches. The interesting extra mini features like pressing any button after a glitch to get a new camera angle. How if you did something wrong like punch a bystander, there was a glitch because there was technically an error with the memory and the animus as Altair didn’t actually do that action. Although the graphics are better, there is so much extra stuff that everything just looks too unclear and weird. On top of all that. The music was phenomenal. Adding the camera angles with the music. The game was an actual experience. With small details in the original that the new series have forgotten about. The new series just seem lazy. And redundant and boring. The story with the animus and the on going adventure after escaping abstergo. Or the death of Desmond and what really happens after is just kinda. Half assed. Just. Lost and. It’s a shame the developers put no passion.
Also the better features of assassins creed 2 was the additional of accessible historical information in a interesting manner delivered by Shawn that just added an ummmph that just made me a nerd for history.
I have played almost all of the creeds, and have found Odyssey to be my favorite due to my liking of Greek mythology. Currently on origins and finding Egypt to be awesome as well!
If you replace greece with America would you really like it?

Good on you. People like to buy and complain, rather than have fun.
@@cezarstefanseghjucan I mean the complaining is justified when they have shit on a golden brand and people act like it’s ok. 🥶
@@cezarstefanseghjucan if you buy a game and dont like it tgey cant complain?
It's not assassin's Creed anymore. Just an adventure game
Unity /Ac 2 and black flag was my best open world experience especially unity , it was small concise well animated , I was so inspired by unity’s and Ac2 world designs , I’m working on a medieval comic with those qualities
A fair assessment, unbiased and in favor of the older games.
last good ac was unity. with syndicate it all went to be just boring and repetitive and with origins it had some good ideas but they forced me to do boring stuff
New fans like the new onde but us OG Will say the new ones aren’t true ac games
I want a new prince of persia game
Sands of time remake is in development, not a new game tho
Assassin's creed valhalla I killed 10 saxons with out being detected and got a trophy for it
I think it should be like Classic AC 5 - 0 New AC
If you don’t like the last ac games you aren’t a fan , there ain’t an ac game I dislike
I consider Black Flag/Origins a good middle term beetween old and inovation
Classic AC wins, it has better parkour, stealth, combat, story, characters
Classic ac is sooooo much better. better atmosphere story pacour story lore stealth world building story history story fun and STORY
You never played assassins creed for the combat, you would play this game for the assassin strategy.
