There’s something beautiful about the scene where Apollo says, “so began a millennia of conflict” and the camera kinda spins and you see the soldiers fighting, and the tree growing. It’s just beautiful.
@@imranhamarat they are fighting but for no reason. They all fought for water, for survival. Over time all the trees, grass and more grew. Which means there is plenty of water. Cuz plants need water lol. At the end they look around an see a bunch of dead people. And at 3:03 the scene is focused on a dude in water. It shows how they all died for water, even tho there was enough for everyone in the first place. Long story short, at the end they realized they were fighting for no reason.
This trailer has some damn powerful meaning. Civilizations start by people fighting over something meaningful. But then that meaning is lost behind the want to kill the others just trying to survive. There is always that want of peace. But one side cannot trust the other. This shit goes deep.
Pretty much most of medieval warfare summed up right there. Why were the French and English at war for 100 YEARS STRAIGHT? By the end of it, they didn't know either.
TheBigHurt They did know, they fought for the vacant throne of France. But I will agree that it is strangely poetic, how after the bloodlust has passed, after the rage has subsided, the warriors now realise that all their friends are dead. Furthermore, they realise that the dozens men they just killed were also someone's friend, brother, husband or father. They are taken aback, and they ask themselves; Why do I fight? Why do *we* have to fight? Wouldn't it be simpler if we just made peace?
I was trying to poetic here. Whatever their original reason (Royal family succession crisis), by the end of The Hundred Years War, to the average person they were pretty much just fighting because "They're French. Why WOULDN'T we?"
Viking was a normal everyday man like most Vikings. knights and samurai were rich and lived by their principles, that dude was thinking from a poor man’s perspective.
This is probably the most impressive time transition I've ever seen, the way the world around them changes is absolutely beautiful. Don't let us down Ubisoft Edit: They let us down lmao
Griffin Long Same, im really excited for this game. and i think the end of the story that all 3 factions will realise who was behind all this and unite to take her down.
Griffin Long I'm really excited & looking forward to this game since the announcement at E3 2015 & i'm still excited to this day , but the talk from many about this game being a mediocre left me in confuse , what do u think ?
NGinCortex After playing the closed alpha and beta I can safely say that the gameplay is great, nothing to worry about there. I think that most people are worried about either the campaign or how Ubisoft could abuse its use of dlc. From what I understand the dlc maps and characters will be given to players for free a while after launch, this way the playerbase is not divided by those who buy dlc and those who don't. The campaign might end up being a bit underwhelming but I can't say for sure.
Josh :I I’m a bit late to this comment, but that guy could hardly walk. Adrenaline would do very little if you’re that weak. It might be a possibility, but I hardly doubt that the guy would be able to fight as well as he did.
@@nutgamestrong6223 Nah, its the ubisoft waters, they'll get all the gamer girl vikings who only play Valk or Berserker and light spam, to pee into a stream so the Viking can drink it and create the most broken character.
Its funny how everyone is laughing at the concept of them fighting over water while people right now are fighting over toilet paper xD Sweet sweet irony .-.
Year 1: we kill each other for water Year 50: our parents killed each other for water Year 100: our grandparents fought each other for survival Year 200: what are we fighting for again? Year 1000: idk what were fighting for but I know our ancestors killed each other so we shall carry this tradition.
This isnt that far off, actually. WWI started because one man got assassinated. Most of the people fighting didnt understand what they were fighting for. Nations fighting for almost no reason whatsoever, and whatever reason there was, wasn't really much to be worth all that happened
@@gin4gingers244 that's an oversimplification of it. the assassination of archduke Franz Ferdinand was the spark that lit the fuse, but the bomb that was the great war is really attributed to multiple factors such as the decline of the monarchy system, the arms race between the Europeans nation, and the arrogance and pride of men too unqualified to lead their nation. there is a lot of moving parts to the whole thing. I recommend watching Extra credit's WWI: the Seminal Tragedy. it's really good and learning history can really give you a new perspective on how the world is operating today.
Even rewatching this in 2023 it still gives me chills. Such a great game with a very under-rated story. For Honors story is honestly one of my favorites that Ubisoft has done. It really digs deep into humanities true nature which is violence. Ppl can say they want peace but truthfully most jump to fighting without a 2nd thought
knights: 0/10 for not purging the Saracens from the Holy Land samurai: 0/10 for not committing seppuku after failing to kill the enemy in a single blow Viking: 0/10 for no hinga danga dergen
Peace is impossible the only way peace can be achieved is if a truly devastating event occurred like a extraterrestrial invasion everything falls down to competition each country wants to get a leg up on the other
He said it all started. He's not talking about Apollyon but the Viking in the first Age, since all agreed on putting away the weapons but he said "you know what? fuck it." :'D
I think this trailer was meant to be a metaphor like samurais maybe not 1 but a band of them claimed areas with water but Viking bands understandably wanted that water.
1:33 She's gonna do the superhero landing! Wait for it! 1:37 Whoo! Superhero landing! You know, that's really hard on your knees. Totally impractical, they all do it.
For Honour really does seem bombastic. I mean, she threw her sword down onto the ground and jumped. There's a viking chick straight out of a Wagnerian Opera in the Viking campaign footage. I like "realistic style with fantastical tone" stuff.
Yeah, at first the history buff within me was super excited for this game (I just ignored the fact that three factions were having a very unlikely war,) but then the fantasy kind of ruined it a bit. I've come to terms with it though, and am eager yet again. Just please no magic or curses or I'll cry a puddle for me to drown myself in.
It seems like there is magic and curses. I mean, an evil sorceress stole the three civilizations away. It's definitely a more Conan or Game of Thrones style thing, though. Strength of arm and steel being much more prevalent than magic, but mysticism being common enough. I doubt there will be magic spells or anything, but that recharge move certainly seems like "weeaboo fightan magic"
This trailer and all campaign cinematics always makes me sad for what for what could've been. For honor is a good game and I still found nothing quite like it but this trailer and the apollyon cutscenes had a different... vision.
Melonenstrauch it’s cause the lead writer comes into work with an idea that they dreamed of the previous night and then they make a confusing story making it more and more fantasy.
It's truly disappointing what the game lore has become over time, but I hope it will return to its image one day. In the meantime there's always the combat, I suppose.
@@somehistorynerd same, now they ignore power rock and I follow it again. Although it does bother me that there was apparently dragons before the cataclysm.
To be fair Apollyon would probably encourage toxicity since honor and respect are just lies made by the weak to restrict the strong and our true nature is being little angry shits
Why they couldn't share the water: Samurai-Too Honourable to do it Knights-Too Chivalrous to do it Vikings-Well,I guess no good Viking let's a nice battle go away that easily
Yeah, what the first guy said. But even if this WAS about the water, your points are wrong. You clearly don't know the basis behind the Chivalric Code and Bushido. I can't argue with your point about the Viking, though...
You guys are so stupid "uhhh itz a metaphor" wow you figured out the secret to the water you must get really high grades in your elementary school class. It's clear a joke on the stereotypes of those factions you numbnuts
People: "WHo would win, Knight or Samurai?" Scholar: "Not a true acedemic question, as neither would have faced the other in combat historically.." People: "What about a viking verses a Knight in plate?" Scholar: "Also not a true acedemic question, as vikings and plate as we know it, didn't coexist Historically." Ubisoft: "Not historically.... but.. Fictionally..... *announces For Honor*"
Someone who knows how plate armor works: The Knight would beat them all if he was in full plate armor, the Knight has the best weapons for dealing with armor and the best armor out of all three. The Viking has the least effective armor of the three, and doesn't have a weapon capable of dealing effectively with plate. The Knight's weapons are all capable of dealing with plate, whether the sword (using half swording techniques to go through the gaps.) the Pole Axe (just yes any part of that mother fucker.) or the Flail. the Knight would win in reality. The samuria taking second place. (This is someone who has alligned himself in the game with the Vikings.)
A Voice Crying Out One knight would be enough to slaughter and masacre at least a dozen Vikings and several Samurai. That how hard they outclass them in real life.
Fun fact: Out of all the 3400 years of civilization, we've only spent between 250-290 years living in peace. The sad fact is how long until we maintain that peace...
@@imaddjilali7610 yeah and when the U.S. stops Russia and china will take it's place. As in they will become America they will become britian they will colonise and war with everyone for there recorcess untill they bleed them dry.
If only. Sadly the gamebreaking and frankly world destroying capabilities of pommel throwing would ruin this game. Hell, that's probably how this whole thing started.
This entire thing is basically a metaphor for nations fighting over resources. Each one represents their nation, while the battle represents the war between them.
2:39 I always loved this snippet and Apollyon’s line. Because it feels like a line that takes the conflict out of the game for a second and more of just what the knights, vikings, and samurai are to us now. Legends of the past, “the greatest warriors the world has ever known”. And really adds to the retrospective and somber view this whole segment of the trailer has. Along with giving its respect and badassery to each of the 3 warriors.
I liked this game. This trailer got my attention in the first place, it showed the desperation in their circumstances, this explaining why they fought for so long. It was an interesting game concept
wait.. 1000 years of war and battle.. everyone's looking for a reason for peace... you're gonna show them... by bringing war... thats some fine logic there maam.
No, she doesn't want peace so whenever they consider giving up the fighting she fucks them over so they start again. She'd probably get fucked if people stopped fighting and got along or something...
Jimmy Ramos and it's in multiplayer I think and it's really nice to finally see splitscreen again so many games are taking away one of the best features in the gaming industry hands down
Diarmuid Whelan Wisloff Yeah, I know! It's such a shame that many games opted to be online multiplayer only in recent years. I've been playing Resident Evil 5 campaign in split screen with a friend of mine and it's so much fun. And let's not forget the GoldenEye "golden" era hehe.
The strong die hard, the weak die alone, but the courageous die defiant...after taking enough enemies with them, even in the end. That is how I define "a beautiful death." What say all of you?
Apparently there were already tensions between the nations and the apocalypse didnt help. The people arent fighting over the water for 1000 years, they just hold a massive grudge.
What should have happened when the Raider was shot. Raider: *sees Apollyon* “HEY! THAT’S A KNIGHT” Kensei: *to Raider* “Hey, want to team up against the knights?” Raider: “HELL YES” The end.
...so if you let them fight it out they eventually call a truce. But if you provoke them they eventually find a common goal and fight you...how does this work out either way Apollyon?
And if you understand this: "Deus Vult!" you belong to the Crusaders. And if you understand this: "Ore wa o'chinchin ga daisuke nandayo" you belong to the Samurai.
I’m not ashamed to admit this, but this trailer makes me get teary eyed. After following and playing this game all the way from the open beta, through all the hardship and turmoil until now at Year 5, looking back on the start of this game and the memories it makes flood back. It will always hold a special place in my heart.
Good God I love coming back to this trailer every once in awhile. Seeing only the three factions’ vanguards and just knowing how much the game has evolved from that. It’s been two years since the games release so here’s to another two and another and until these servers get shut down, then I won’t play but until then remember brothers we fight... FOR HONOR
I want a gamemode like this. Not like breach or anything like that but an actual faction war where the three factions fight it off in a giant battle and insted of 4v4 it would be like 10v10 or something abit smaller (just to keep it interesting), sure they would have to implement that if you choose a faction you can only play from that faction (to keep it all knights vs all Vikings vs all samurai) but it would still be cool as mabye an event or a full on gamemode
Yeah, tbh I don't like seeing just two teams, it'd be cool if when you chose a character you only fought alongside people of the same faction, because seeing a team with knights and samurai with viking minions seiging a castle makes no damn sense
I love this trailer but I love the action sequences for each warrior. Its fluid and nicely shows why they are a major badass. The end though was a tearjerker since after all the bloodshed they really contemplated whats even the point to this war.
The message isn't that they're just fighting for food and water. Yeah that's what it was at the beginning, because everyone was desperate to survive,by any means nessecary. But over who know how long, hundreds, maybe even thousands of years, they all forgot. They don't need to fight anymore, the disaster is long over, but nobody remembers that the desperate struggle to live was the reason for fighting, they fight, because they simply don't know how to do anything else. Every single time they all started to grow tired, try and find some way to end the conflict, something would always come along and rekindle their unexplainable, millennia old hatred for each other
They began fighting because they felt like it was the easiest way to live, raiding and pillaging meant you could have more territory and more resources
1:37 They realized that the sword in the recent year 8 season 1 trailer looks exactly like the one in this one. They've been planning this a long time.
It was good. It was great. Then they just did what they always do. Overbalance and update everything too much. The game was perfect They should've just focused on adding new executions and cosmetics and gamemodes. Not all this
afrer long yrs of studying IR, I find this trailer rly worth of some important lesson. Sometimes ppl, wars are gone through forgotten reason as the time passes.

Wish they’d make a second game that continues the story
And the transformation of their armor and weapons was magnificent too, we saw the three turn into the Kenshi, Raider, and Warden.

Finally ! :)

I like how the one more seen as barbaric was the first one to think of peace both times
"The one who fights the hardest is often the one who seeks peace the most."
The same can’t be said about Danica Patrick
And then they decided fuck it, and went rage mode
Viking was a normal everyday man like most Vikings. knights and samurai were rich and lived by their principles, that dude was thinking from a poor man’s perspective.
Uhh the Viking and the knight thought of peace at the same moment and what you're saying is kinda corny ngl

Fun fact: Out of all the 3400 years of civilization, we've only spent between 250-290 years living in peace.
The sad fact is how long until we maintain that peace...
You had your answer not too long ago with Russia.
@@Waggendaily and earlier than that with U.S and what it did nad is still doing to iraq , syria and many more
@@imaddjilali7610 yeah and when the U.S. stops Russia and china will take it's place. As in they will become America they will become britian they will colonise and war with everyone for there recorcess untill they bleed them dry.
@@Demicleas yep no world power is innocent
It is all worth it in the end
Even though the game has changed so much this trailer will always remain one of my favorites
Can the knights unscrew their pommels and end the enemy rightly?
hehehe
lets hope they can
They would if skall was the game designer
If only. Sadly the gamebreaking and frankly world destroying capabilities of pommel throwing would ruin this game. Hell, that's probably how this whole thing started.
hahahah yeah i mean they need to have an execution for that
Anyone coming back here after the announcement of the Unsung Warden?
Yup🙇🏿♂️
Yes
I really hate how people think this is whole war is about water
Jack Robinson Nobody actually thinks that. They are making stupid jokes to be funny
😂 Exactly
You must really be fun at parties
It’s actually about bud lite
This entire thing is basically a metaphor for nations fighting over resources. Each one represents their nation, while the battle represents the war between them.
2017!? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!! I"VE ALREADY BEEN WAITING OVER A YEAR!!
rip
average game development is 3-4 years
Same. Fucking losing sleep replying to damn youtube comments.
+WarlordBaconhammer then they shouldn't have announced it so early.
Now they have a campaign
2:39 I always loved this snippet and Apollyon’s line. Because it feels like a line that takes the conflict out of the game for a second and more of just what the knights, vikings, and samurai are to us now. Legends of the past, “the greatest warriors the world has ever known”. And really adds to the retrospective and somber view this whole segment of the trailer has. Along with giving its respect and badassery to each of the 3 warriors.
2ho else thought that arrow was about to go in his knee
and used to be an adeventurer like you.
+Miss Yumi haha I get it.
a skyrim reference! :D
internet is filled with so Much sarcasm. I don't what's real
Мне нравится ваш юмор!
I missed that
BAZONGA :DDDDDD
Watching this in 2018, this trailer still is beautiful and gets me hyped
I liked this game. This trailer got my attention in the first place, it showed the desperation in their circumstances, this explaining why they fought for so long. It was an interesting game concept
Love how all the knights were just wandering around doing their shopping in full armour when the doom hit.
2:45 raider sounds like a giant ,i love it
The power of Joutnar is with him!
@@RealSkutti yes😎
This trailer brings back memories when I used to play this game
game trailers now are much better than any movie u see!
1:34 Oh watch this, she's gonna do a superhero landing. SUPERHERO LANDING!!!
Did the developers just watch dead pool before making this trailer?
Broken knees
I Like The music
They most likely have broken legs or broken knees now
Random Guy: This game is stupid the history is all wrong
Me: IT'S A VIDEO GAME!
Tyler Butler yea its just a video game ok
Tyler Butler it's only a game, y u heff 3 be mad?
@@amandag.6186 Overwatch reference???
@@smack6357 no just a random dead meem
That doesn't excuse historical inaccuracies in a game trying to be accurate, which this one clearly isn't.
When sharing wasnt put in the dictionary
At 2:08 the Warden has to fight the other 2 at the same time, yet still holds her own. I'm impressed.
When you parry 2 attacks when your in a 2v1
wait.. 1000 years of war and battle.. everyone's looking for a reason for peace... you're gonna show them... by bringing war...
thats some fine logic there maam.
lol she is saying that she won’t let them find peace
Maybe the only way they can defeat her is uniting?
+Jorge Quiroz yes it is, finally the viking, knight, and samurai will join their force to defeat apollyon.
Yeah just like US policy
No, she doesn't want peace so whenever they consider giving up the fighting she fucks them over so they start again.
She'd probably get fucked if people stopped fighting and got along or something...
So... Single player campaign confirmed?
plus split screen co op :)
Diarmuid Whelan Wisloff Really? Awesome!
Jimmy Ramos and it's in multiplayer I think and it's really nice to finally see splitscreen again so many games are taking away one of the best features in the gaming industry hands down
Diarmuid Whelan Wisloff Yeah, I know! It's such a shame that many games opted to be online multiplayer only in recent years. I've been playing Resident Evil 5 campaign in split screen with a friend of mine and it's so much fun. And let's not forget the GoldenEye "golden" era hehe.
Humankind in a nutshell.
Man this trailer today gives me the chills the quote "the greatest warriors the world has ever known" alone give me the most chills
ps4: samurais
xbox: knights
pc: vikings
a true thousand years of war lol
I think XBox would actually Be Apollyon, fucking XBox always brings war
PC gamers should be appollyon they hate all of the console gamers :I
Pic need to be Apollyon considering they think they're better than everyone and starts up crap so
Actually here's how it goes Wii: Samurai, Xbox: Vikings, Ps4: Knights and Pc: Appollyon.
Nick Brannan No, Wii doesn't get to be anything, it's not worthy of any warrior legacy
The strong die hard, the weak die alone, but the courageous die defiant...after taking enough enemies with them, even in the end. That is how I define "a beautiful death." What say all of you?
Whoah... I just... wow...
Liam Konkle
Deep shit, ain't it?
DW_Nox balls deep
I say we all die. All that matters is how, and what we leave behind.
But Standing upon thousands of dead allies and foes I ask you to ask your God "Does Honor really matter?" I did and the Silence of wind was my Answer
Just share the dang water..
maybe they were scouts for a small village(more soldier joint the fight later) and tough there wasn`t enough water for 3 small villages.
Aye, it's a damned spring, there's enough for everyone.
Aagerds Exactly!
Apparently there were already tensions between the nations and the apocalypse didnt help. The people arent fighting over the water for 1000 years, they just hold a massive grudge.
I feel like you're not smart
I still love this game to this day it holds a special place in my memory
They don't fight just for water... They fight for Fiji water 💦 FOR HONORRR!!!
PizzaWarrior2013 Underrated comment
@@CraziChris agreed
Hahaha i'm dying so funny
3:19 the way that samurai bow his head was making me sad, he seems dont want to kill an enemy out of his need.
What should have happened when the Raider was shot.
Raider: *sees Apollyon* “HEY! THAT’S A KNIGHT”
Kensei: *to Raider* “Hey, want to team up against the knights?”
Raider: “HELL YES”
The end.
Lol
*Knight gets revenge*
Mateo Felip Brown *Knight gets ledged*
@@TmanTheTdog *Your team is breaking*
Vortiger: *you just aproed your last fundes*
2024 players rep 800: and here we still stand, searching for toxicity
The music and the cinematic work are just amazing
All these years later and the For Honor trailers are still amazing.
this gives me shivers everytime, well put together
Me to me to
This trailer planted on my head. I dont play this game but i always remember how epic it is first time watching it
It would really completely satisfied me if they have spartans on it ...
its called FOR HONOR not FOR SPARTA
***** they have a knight,a samurai and a viking at the same time fighting for a millenium .. none of this make sense
jimmy pooler so spartans doesnt have honor ? huh .. that's new ..
Well we can all dream dammit!
the chose 3 great warrior but notice the tech is relatively similar iron steel not bronze and some iron
...so if you let them fight it out they eventually call a truce. But if you provoke them they eventually find a common goal and fight you...how does this work out either way Apollyon?
White shadow...
I bring war... Not plans....
She Wants War. That's it, War has no plans.
The fuck are you blabbing on about kid?
A DAMN WOMAN THAT WAS BORN A MAN, OR A MAN BORN A WOMAN.
the last mission definitely would be the union of the samurais, crusaders and vikings versus Apollyion
if I have a horror of calligraphy, sorry, I'm from Argentina
No it wont, they say afterwards is when multiplayer battle begins so well... the war never ends.
+Imperial Knight
thanks?
Why the question mark?.
Still one of the greatest Video Game trailers in Gaming Industry
You know when a Viking gets more shirtless and skin, you're screwed in combat
why?
okedoke1234 True
Because We Viking are manly!
TheReal Craig toxic 10 year old
@Paveen cringe
The glory days of For Honor are like it says in this trailer "lost to the ages."
Amazing trailer, almost felt like I was fighting for my life as well
If you understand what this means
"Hei, jeg er en viking"
you belong to the vikings
Nope
Kamen Dimitri Hi, I'm a viking
- Norwegian
And yes, I choose the vikings
Kamen Dimitri PERKELE FOR THE NORTHERNLANDS
Dont even speak norwegian and i understood that... Damn it's close to swedish.
And if you understand this: "Deus Vult!" you belong to the Crusaders.
And if you understand this: "Ore wa o'chinchin ga daisuke nandayo" you belong to the Samurai.
I’m not ashamed to admit this, but this trailer makes me get teary eyed. After following and playing this game all the way from the open beta, through all the hardship and turmoil until now at Year 5, looking back on the start of this game and the memories it makes flood back. It will always hold a special place in my heart.
Viking started it.
I blame the Japanese
+M28tan i blame the english
I blame the water
+Lalhmingmawia Hmar lol
+Lalhmingmawia Hmar I blame Trump.
The music sounded kinda like the Gandalf Helms Deep charge
Glad to say this aged incredibly well
Absolutely, being able to do this in game is so badass I cannot
Good God I love coming back to this trailer every once in awhile. Seeing only the three factions’ vanguards and just knowing how much the game has evolved from that. It’s been two years since the games release so here’s to another two and another and until these servers get shut down, then I won’t play but until then remember brothers we fight... FOR HONOR
I want a gamemode like this.
Not like breach or anything like that but an actual faction war where the three factions fight it off in a giant battle and insted of 4v4 it would be like 10v10 or something abit smaller (just to keep it interesting), sure they would have to implement that if you choose a faction you can only play from that faction (to keep it all knights vs all Vikings vs all samurai) but it would still be cool as mabye an event or a full on gamemode
A 4v4v4 dominion mode with 4 points would be pretty cool, although queue times would be insane after the hype dies off
Yeah, tbh I don't like seeing just two teams, it'd be cool if when you chose a character you only fought alongside people of the same faction, because seeing a team with knights and samurai with viking minions seiging a castle makes no damn sense
New world war.
I love this trailer but I love the action sequences for each warrior. Its fluid and nicely shows why they are a major badass. The end though was a tearjerker since after all the bloodshed they really contemplated whats even the point to this war.
New update bringing it back around
“The Greatest Warriors the wolrd has Ever know “ I've seen guys who fight too well and this phrase reminds me of them with much respect.
The message isn't that they're just fighting for food and water.
Yeah that's what it was at the beginning, because everyone was desperate to survive,by any means nessecary.
But over who know how long, hundreds, maybe even thousands of years, they all forgot. They don't need to fight anymore, the disaster is long over, but nobody remembers that the desperate struggle to live was the reason for fighting, they fight, because they simply don't know how to do anything else.
Every single time they all started to grow tired, try and find some way to end the conflict, something would always come along and rekindle their unexplainable, millennia old hatred for each other
They began fighting because they felt like it was the easiest way to live, raiding and pillaging meant you could have more territory and more resources
1:37 They realized that the sword in the recent year 8 season 1 trailer looks exactly like the one in this one.
They've been planning this a long time.
2:07 to 3:07 is the hardest part of this trailer
I wish the game was as good as they hyped it up to be back then
I've watched it over and over thru the years and that part just hits. Ubisoft, if anything, really makes some damn good trailer
It was good. It was great. Then they just did what they always do. Overbalance and update everything too much. The game was perfect
They should've just focused on adding new executions and cosmetics and gamemodes. Not all this
This game is probably one of Ubisofts best
I miss how simple this game used to be
Easily one of the hardest game trailers I've ever seen tbh
10/10
wait this game is going to have a campaign or what ?! even better :D
Yeah there's a video on it too
fr tho im so excited 😜
I wonder if there are multiple campaigns, one for each civilization.
+Shadow Marine itd be dope as a Samurai if you got to kill Ninjas lol
excited for downgrade
This trailer goes from 0:11 peaceful wheat to everyone getting their ass kicked in about 50 seconds.
it's like skyrim with swords
Hell no skyrim is no skill you just bash the RT button
haha true it's not even fun to the point where u use mods/graphic mods just to explore
Skyrim didn't have swords??
what decent person would use swords in skyrim? Heavy as fuck, and always need upgrades. Magic for life bro.
Marsupilami In the difficulty I play (master), you usually can't use magic (as a main) because your mana would just be too low
"Wow!
Wow!
Wow!" - raider after the arrow hit him
afrer long yrs of studying IR, I find this trailer rly worth of some important lesson. Sometimes ppl, wars are gone through forgotten reason as the time passes.
"A thousand years of war " MAN that felt good
Still probably my favorite ubisoft trailer. This and assassins creed 3.
