That ruined the whole series. The whole time I was playing the first 4 games, I assumed we would eventually in the future get a game where you play as the assassin Desmond, doing parkour and climbing skyscrapers.
That's the sad part, we only got that in the game where he dies, like the punchline to a bad joke lol. The huge amount of wasted potential is insane, they had really big plans for Desmond. They did say though that Assassins Creed was only supposed to be I think 4-6 games long not 13 games lol, makes sense that the last majority of the games are nothing more than just filler that really have no other purpose than to prolong and milk Assassins Creed. Thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
It didnt ruin the series desmond and the apple stuff was interesting but trash. It did ruin how they connected everything, but it wasnt going anywhere promising.
@@CyrusIsnt Desmond was a good character he just had bad writing, The Creator of Assassins Creed didn't work on a lot of the games, from what I read the last Assassins Creed game he made was Assassins Creed Brotherhood, so this explains the direction of the franchise because Ubisoft fired him and they fired him in a very disrespectful manner, this is why the basically cleaned house and killed off Lucy as well who was played by a very well know actress Kristen Bell and she was killed off because Ubisoft was lowballing her. Everyone took their frustrations with Assassins Creed out on Desmond and that is not fair to his character or voice actor because Desmond was voiced by Nolan North the same guy who voiced Nathan Drake lol so they had a big person to voice Desmond.
The Apple of Eden can't bring people back to life, the Apple is about controlling the will of people, however there are pieces of eden that could possible bring him back to life like the Staff of Heremes or the shroud of eden, this is what they used to bring juno back to life but that program was scrapped... so we will see how they bring they bring Desmond back if they do, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
If Ubisoft really regrets killing off Desmond, then could just make a new game where new protagonist finds a ISU artifact that can revive then dead. Then just have the artifact used at some point in the game to revive Desmond.
You are right lol, there is an ISU artifact that can actually regenerate or heal the person who wears it. It is called the Shroud of Eden and this is something the ISU would wear like clothes to protect them, there is also a staff called the Staff of Hermes which has more or less the same function as the Shroud the difference is, the Staff of Hermes is way more powerful and grants the user immortality. If they really wanted to, they could bring Desmond back but they would have to do some really good writing to do that like I'm talking award wining level of writing, they would need to get their best writers on the job for the reresection of Desmond, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
@@chillyman7340 idea. Abstergo is using the shroud to keep Desmonds corpse fresh to harvest his DNA. Demonds concious mind is backed up on the black rooms of the Animus 2.0. Rebecca, Shaun, and William, after Rebecca finds a way into the black rooms, and finds Desmonds consciousness. Convince Loki to give up the staff, a bit of "look, this probably won't work but let's try" from Rebecca, maybe get that "dial back all the way" from as the animus bits so the team can learn how to resurrect with ISU tech, maybe make it co-op with whats his name (Im poor, don't have a system that can run the thing so I never played the game.) And have them steal Desmonds body from Abstergo. Then finally, amazingly, Desmond is returned, an actual miracle. And have some actual assassin missions so Desmond hasn't forgotten how be an assassin.
@@timothyswanson8773 You have a point there, there was a program to harness the power of the Shroud to basically clone people, if they preserved his body then they could use the shroud to heal his body and then put his consciousness back into his body, if he still has the bleeding effect then he should still remember just about everything he learnt in the animus, so far what we know is, that Desmond is in the Grey with Layla, this is where Basim was aswell and is where a lot of the isu are said to be, so that might be the plot of the modern day in the next game.
That's the thing though, Desmond coming back would be good for the franchise but Desmond wouldn't need to come back for Assassins Creed games to be as good as they used to be, Desmond was very mishandled sure but there are so many other really good characters who could use the spotlight, like Ezio Desmond had a really good run but the sad part is that he only got one game to really shine and show his hidden potential and that was Assassins Creed 3 and sadly that was the one game where he died. The thing with him is that in AC 3 it was only a small part of his arc, so the Desmond we saw in AC3 was only about maybe 10-20% of his actual power and training at work. It would be insane to see a lore accurate Desmond Miles at his full training and strength thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
@@chillyman7340 Yeah I feel that the storyline from old script writers were amazing that makes classic ac games feel good. if they can handle modern storyline of Desmond then I think it can fit perfectly in any story. just like ac 3 I loved morden day more than even whole storyline of Connor due to the way they twisted story of Desmond. let's hope sweet baby inc. not ruining it again. and it's an honour to have a reply from you.
@@familysquad2521 The honor is mine man, thank you for feeling compelled to comment, to taking the time to reply, It's people like you that I make content for, makes it all worth while, thanks man :)
@@chillyman7340 Could probably find a way to bring him back in some way. How did the whole thing with that precursor race go after 3 and 4? Did it even go anywhere?
@@LordTyph That's the thing... The whole Desmond arc had a lot to do with Juno the Isu being the main antagonist of the games. The precursors were going to make a comeback but after Desmond's death they wrote all that off, Juno was brought back to life but was killed off in a comic book ironically she was killed off by Desmond's supposed son and the lab for the precursor program called the Phoenix Project was scrapped because the lab was destroyed and they were using a piece of Eden to basically clone their dna and that is how they brought Juno back you meet Juno's husband in AC 4 who is a Sage in the modern-day at Abstergo industries, and she basically get's killed after that but she makes an appearance in AC unity so she might still make a comeback who knows but Desmond's son is also a sage so the story could go either way, sorry for all the writing wanted to be as accurate as possible :)
They never wanted to kill Desmond, it was the fans that DEMANDED his death, as before ac3 Desmond was one of the least popular characters (they saying that woke kills every good francise but in reality that has already been done by the fandoms,who are always toxic)
You are spot on, they had a whole story for Desmond, that was supposed to be way longer than the arc we got of Desmond. The same people who wanted Desmond dead are the same people complaining about how bad Assassins Creed is now, the same people who want to boycott Assassins Creed Shadows. I have it in my mind to honestly just let them have it, give them a piece of my mind because I am so frustrated with this. I really liked all the Assassins Creed characters and I feel that the pacing for the first Assassins Creed games was good, Desmond had good character development and was becoming a better character. That is the trap of listening to gamers, it's either you make something in your vision or you try to make something that pleases everyone and offends no body. They need to fix Assassins Creed, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
Nobody can ever replace Desmond but he was dead for 3 games so they had to choose someone, Layla was just a badly written character ,the whole modern day after origins was horrible, so it looks looks like now they want to focus more on the modern day. Thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
i dont hate desmond, and i thought tat Desmond's death would be a great hero's ending after saving the world fron the solar flatre event....but looking back now amd the recent failures from Ubisoft, i feel like revivng desmond, giving his death plot meaningless and a reason for Ubisoft to just abuse and fished on the franchise instead of focusing a new different protagonist...to me, bringing back desmond is just nostalgia bait
@@l4w1nc0l7 Desmond was like subject 16 I guess in Valhalla and even there were believe in whole AC storylines where William miles even believe his son is still alive. It is not that killing him will save the world but the only problem was with Juno from the starting and this should be ending in ac3 making it better story. Even continuous stories with Desmond would make boring. Try to look at it as whole where only one modern protagonist. It will make no creative plots to writers. and bringing him back makes sense after Layla meeting him in animus.
That's the thing though, there really isn't that much that is nostalgic about Desmond, the only game where he is a proper character is Assassins Creed 3 and that's the game he dies in lol, yeah sure you got to hop around like an Assassin in Brotherhood but his true arc only began in Assassins Creed 3, they killed him off before his story could really begin because he was in a coma for Revelations. The problem really lies with Ubisoft because they fired the lead writer and creator of Assassins Creed and they killed off Desmond and Lucy due to internal issues with Ubisoft, they got greedy and now they desperate. The problem is the new protagonists are horrible they brought back an actual assassin who is a sage/isu so they will have to really use Basim, maybe the same way they brought Basim back is the same way they will bring Desmond. Thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
@@familysquad2521 They need to focus more on the modern day, that is the only way the games will make sense. If they can link all the games together in a good way then it will make a lot of the bad games look not as bad, right now we will just have to wait and see what it is that they do now.
@@chillyman7340 i would rather want rebecca and shaun to be the next protags of the franchise since 2. both of them are my fan favorite, specially shaun who has alot of character development, and very close to lucy and desmond.....instead of reviving desmond, ubisoft should focus on the 2 and protect the so called "Desmond's son" since if i remember a decendance of the sage....
That will most likely be the case because that is exactly how they brought Basim back to life. The only problem is that Abstergo might still have Desmond's body, so William Miles might need the Assassins to some how steal it back, so it would be every interesting to see how exactly they write such a story, thank you for watching and commenting 😬👍
i remember taking my copy of ac3 back to gamestop after i found out Desmond died. pretty sure i pre ordered it too. i didnt come back to the series until origins
It makes sense that people would have left the franchise after Desmond's death but not only that, it's the fact that they didn't have a good replacement for Desmond they just killed him off and never really addressed the huge gap in the franchise because of his death, thank you for watching and commenting 😁👍
we know they regret killing him since they released assassin's creed 3 those attempts at abstergo somehow making games out of memories and other dumb shit and they haven't made a single good assassins creed since black flag and black flag is 90% game about pirates
That is true, Black Flag was proof that the games didn't only need Desmond and a good modern day story, people liked Black Flag because IT WAS A GOOD VIDEOGAME Modern Day story or not Desmond Miles or not, they stopped making good videogames, they stopped making good Assassins Creed games, they had a good idea with Unity but it was a badly made game, it was not because of the story or the characters it was just down to bad development, why they chose to reboot the franchise I have nooooo idea but that derailed any chances they had of bringing Assassins Creed back to what it used to be, now they don't know what to do lol, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
I recently got into the assassins creed series and I didn’t know what to think of Desmond’s death until I played AC3. Now that I have, I think the series has no endgame. Without his story, the Assassins and Templars just seem to be moving in circles: nothing you do in any game has an effect on the universe as a whole. It’s like of the MCU didn’t have any Avengers movies and only solo movies with the occasional cameo. Killing him off also took away the face of the franchise in that age of the series history, replacing him with several forgettable and/or faceless replacements.
That's The truth, have said many times Desmond is the key, the whole story is centered around him, he is the modern day Master Assassin he learnt from his ancestors who they themselves lead a lot of important moments in history. You are right when they took him out of the picture, everything just fell apart, the Assassins Creed franchise has struggled with direction ever since they killed him off, they even killed Lucy off for a dumb reason, in the original script Lucy wasn't supposed to betray Desmond. The problem was not even killing of Desmond because Black Flag still went on to be a great game but the place where it fell short was the modern day so it had no meaning or purpose. The thing we need to ask ourselves is. What will they do now? will they find some complicated way to bring Desmond back? or will they just bring a whole new character entirely? We will have to see because by the looks of it many people want Desmond to come back because technically he is alive in the grey and Abstergo has his DNA and there was a cloning project in the works but that got scrapped too so who knows lol, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
You have a good point but maybe reboot is strong word, instead they should go back to their roots, a reboot might make more mistakes than good like with Mirage did. When it comes to Assassins Creed games. I would say the really good period of the franchise was from Assassins Creed 3 to Unity, even though Unity had a horrible launch, the game has really grown on a lot of people for the things it did well. People really seem to LOVE Assassins Creed 4 Black flag. I feel that Assassins Creed Syndicate was a really big downgrade from Unity and then after that they did the reboot with Origins , even though Origins was a pretty well loved game that is where the franchise too a nose dive and the games became horrible, if they do need to reboot the franchise then they need to do it in the Assassins Creed 3 or 4 style then we should be able to get proper Assassins Creed games, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
Yup they are over a decade too late lol, have no idea why on earth they took so long to say this, after everything they have done and all the bad decisions they made, feels more like rubbing sault in the wound but better late then never. We will see if they keep their promise and fix the modern day lol, thanks for watching and commenting 😁👍
That is so true, AC3 had such a good build up, then they went out so bad... there were so many things they could have done besides killing him, the fact it was even an option really shows how much they cared about the franchise. it would have been cool if we had another trilogy for Connor, see his arc evolve, would have been great to see more of Connor and Desmond, if they bring Desmond back they will have to do some really good writing for people to not call them out for lazy writing like how they killed him off.
@chillyman7340 I wanted the game to get more development and for Conner to have multiple games. There was a lot more to tell for character development. All the real development is found in side quests.
@@Trash_Cat21 They never gave Connor the chance, the Kenway's were so bad handled I made a video about that and my disappointment with the Kenway bloodline, such good characters and amazing fighters some of the best fighters in the whole of Assassins Creed. I would say, if they want to reboot the franchise they need start from Assassins Creed 3 again, so much untapped potential
We will have to see what they do with the modern day storyline, Desmond coming back to life would be cool but is it really what the modern day needs right now? That could be left to question, what the franchise just needs right now is consistency, they need a new trilogy, they need to give us characters that we can get connected to, that we can have an emotional connection with. I will be making an important video about Assassins Creed again, have a lot that need to get off my chest about Assassins Creed, thank you for watching and commenting 😁👍
Well its too little too late, isn't it! They are going bankrupt, and thats a good thing. Maybe someone that actually cares can start making assassins creed games again.
That is true, they a getting desperate, for them to delay a game about almost a week before it comes out is insane, they don't want another Starwars Outlaws on their hands lol, it's their own fault they fired the creator of assassins creed and then took a huge dump on his legacy, now they are suffering the consequences of their greed and mistakes, thank you for watching and commenting 😁👍
That is the problem they are facing now, the story start with Desmond and the whole franchise was supposed to be based off of his ancestry, remember this, Absturgo doesn't just take anyone they take people based on who their ancestors were, so this why Desmond was important because Desmond and his family have very important ancestors, you find out that Desmond is actually a distant ancestor to Adam from the garden of Eden. This was supposed to be the direction of Assassins Creed. The Lore of Assassins Creed has MANY really good characters that never got a chance to make it into the games, they could maybe branch off and make videogames about them or they could try bring Desmond back some how, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
That ruined the whole series. The whole time I was playing the first 4 games, I assumed we would eventually in the future get a game where you play as the assassin Desmond, doing parkour and climbing skyscrapers.

@@Trash_Cat21 They never gave Connor the chance, the Kenway's were so bad handled I made a video about that and my disappointment with the Kenway bloodline, such good characters and amazing fighters some of the best fighters in the whole of Assassins Creed. I would say, if they want to reboot the franchise they need start from Assassins Creed 3 again, so much untapped potential
Desmond's alive he will probably come back or something
We will have to see what they do with the modern day storyline, Desmond coming back to life would be cool but is it really what the modern day needs right now? That could be left to question, what the franchise just needs right now is consistency, they need a new trilogy, they need to give us characters that we can get connected to, that we can have an emotional connection with. I will be making an important video about Assassins Creed again, have a lot that need to get off my chest about Assassins Creed, thank you for watching and commenting 😁👍
Well its too little too late, isn't it!
They are going bankrupt, and thats a good thing. Maybe someone that actually cares can start making assassins creed games again.
That is true, they a getting desperate, for them to delay a game about almost a week before it comes out is insane, they don't want another Starwars Outlaws on their hands lol, it's their own fault they fired the creator of assassins creed and then took a huge dump on his legacy, now they are suffering the consequences of their greed and mistakes, thank you for watching and commenting 😁👍
it was ok for me but HE was kinda "assasins creed" ... the others .. no inpact at all but some nice games, some less.
That is the problem they are facing now, the story start with Desmond and the whole franchise was supposed to be based off of his ancestry, remember this, Absturgo doesn't just take anyone they take people based on who their ancestors were, so this why Desmond was important because Desmond and his family have very important ancestors, you find out that Desmond is actually a distant ancestor to Adam from the garden of Eden. This was supposed to be the direction of Assassins Creed. The Lore of Assassins Creed has MANY really good characters that never got a chance to make it into the games, they could maybe branch off and make videogames about them or they could try bring Desmond back some how, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😁👍
