i get it that you have your opinion but there are 10 more severly bad things about few of these games and you are pointing at something that most players do not care about .
@@miachelsanta7763 When i make videos. I make them based on my thoughts and opinions. I do not cater to an audience. I hope you realise that. You may have entirely different dislikes from each game, but if I have different thoughts. Why would I talk about your dislikes when this channel is purely my thoughts. I hope you understand. Take for example, my favorite AC game is origins. Yours is probably something else. Does that make me wrong? No. Does it make you wrong? No. Everything is all about opinions.
@@miachelsanta7763the only thing I can think of that I didn’t agree with was ACR. Not because he was wrong, it’s just because Constantinople SUCKED. Made it hard to play the game for me
Since I'm an introvert, I did bond with Connor really well and I like him a lot. Perhaps not as much as Ezio, but I would put him in my top 5 characters. I also think the worst thing about brotherhood is that if you fail full synch, you must restart the whole mission. We must also note that Ubisoft Sofia (AC Rogue's developers) didn't make a main AC game before and had only 8 months to create AC Rogue.
Same, I’m also a reserved person so I understood why Connor was the way he was. And connected and liked him more than most. You see more of his personality and openness through the homestead missions also.
I did as well. Plus he's from a warrior society which gave him a different approach than most assassin's in the series. I like to compare him to Bayek who is also more of a warrior than an.assassin, but will protect those close to him. The Homestead missions really show this aspect of his character.
I got bored with Unity. But decided to give it a try in the first place because people were telling me it had a good story and good parkour. But i found the story and france to be boring as hell and depressing honestly. I played Syndicate and honestly my favourite thing about it was in the Jack the ripper dlc, short as it was. But you're on point, that game was repetitive as hell. My problem with Brotherhood however, despite being one of my favourite, is how that is when the series started to get really easy with its combat. You felt like a master Assassin sure, but there was no challenge anymore. Same with revelations, but that one just felt so off. I didn't like Constantinople, and i hated how they just jumped ahead so many years, having Ezio just leave Italy behind all of a sudden. Rogue had an amazing story in my opinion, but gameplay wise it did mostly feel like Black Flag, except that now you kill Assassin's instead and some can ambush you. I loved seeing more of Haytham, but Shay felt like i character i could connect to, as i've been ostracized and treated poorly in the past for pointing out how wrong some peoples behaviors are in places like a martial arts club where there often is an arrogant cult like mentality going on. The last one i've played was Odyssey. It's a fun game if you ignore the historical inaccuracies, and how ridiculous the powers you can get are. But it took me about 20 hours or so to actually enjoy the story and gameplay. A game should never be like that.
I was so frustrated with unity's story. The cinematic trailer made me think it would be about helping out the revolution and assassinating the templar nobles. They could even do a 180 where arno turns against the assassins during the reign of terror.
@@chrismoore5333 very insightful. I heard a while back that desmond had some kind of personality problem after the all the animus time in AC1 and 2. Like how he made the Altair joke when he saw his statue in brotherhood
Of all the game AC4 is the only one where I found myself mostly bored with the story and checking out of it. Besides a few scenes here and there not much is memorable. The trailer made me think it was also going to bring back assassin recruits in some way, like Arno was going to work his way up the ran and maybe recruit allied assassin's to the revolution and more,, but if you're a single player gamer like me you're pretty much screwed. Instead you mostly get a love story and the revolution is primarily in the background. Ac Brotherhood did the love story better with the side missions related to it, being both tragic and compelling enough not to overshadow the overall conflict of the story.
Yeah considering connor was assaulted by Charles lee and choked against a tree for minutes and having to deal with his mother quite literally burning alive all while he was a kid id imagine he wouldn't be the most open. Im curious if you even touched the homestead missions connor shows alot of appreciation and emotion for the people he met its a whole new side. It should be quite mandatory for people to do the homestead missions before judging him
I think Claudia would've been good to have in AC: Revelations. She could've been their at the start of every sequence talking with Ezio about what he intended to do. Instead of writing letters to her. Letters that could've been easily intercepted.
I think One of the thing they Could have done In Syndicate is that they could also rebuilt the Brotherhood in London. Gang members only used by Jacob, Assassins only locked to Evie.
That's what I thought was going to happen because in the beginning I got the sense that Jacob was more of an unorthodox assassin who would utilize gangs like Acheiles did in Rogue and Evie would be the more traditional code following assassins who would take a more stealth and undercover approach. It would have been cool if Jacob used gang members and Evie recruited and used assassin's. Would have added more to the game.
I know this was posted a while ago, but I really wanted to add something. About Assassin's Creed 3 and Connors story, I fully understand your view point on him. And him being nothing like Ezio, but Connor is a character who suffered a terrible experience and most likely had some kind of child hood trauma (But which assassin doesn't have that?) Connor wanted justice and maybe he was dull or maybe even selfish or naive but then again he was still young and never really knew a way to go about things. Connor is entirely a character seen with a introverted and philosophical personally, which he is but is also a person with heart even expressing discomfort after killing William Johnson. He wanted to believe in the Templars and Assassins working together even if it was impossible. We do get to understand Connor more as a person in the homestead mission which really show what Connor is really like outside of battle and away from everything, we can see him be funny,shy,happy,humble,worried and all of the above. It's kinda like when you enter a classroom and your friend isn't there so you become quiet and don't say much,, but when they are there it's a total change up. Connor reminds me of Charles Smith from Red Dead Redemption 2 with their personally. Connor can be dull but it's more of a cover up to how he really is. This probably makes no sense but thats my take anyway Bye!
Dude, i wish I could give you a fat kiss, this is exactly what I love Connor for, silent but strong, kind but just, closed but intelligent, shy but courageous, harsh but fair, the homestead missions always made me feel as if I was doing something for the good of the people and the future. Even though he wasn't as open and charming as Ezio or the other Kenways, he has his own charm.
He also comes from a warrioresque society as well, being trained from a young age on how to survive in rough circumstances on top of wanting to protect his people.
I have to disagree with Eivor despite him not being an assassin I still liked him as a protagonist and plus in ac lore he’s actually quite important being responsible for the founding of the Templar order after making Alfred the great sort of resign
imo unitys story is pretty good i like it, My problem with unity is the muskets and flintlocks, There is no counter other than a weird unpredictable rolling system that doesnt work half the time, Wouldve preferred the system from ac3 where you can use a guard as a bullet shield.
I'm a Connor defender, he's probably got the drippiest default robes in the whole franchise and his fighting style with the tomahawk is iconic. He's not the charismatic ladies man like Ezio was, he's much more introverted and thoughtful. His arguments with Achilles over action vs inaction, and his interactions with Haytham and the other Templars were the deepest we've seen the protagonist or the games themselves actually discuss the ideologies of the two factions.
What was added to AC1 after the kids comment was the collectable flags. The investigations and, to a lesser extent, citizen saving were part of the main story.
Ac3 worst part is that viewpoints dont unlock the whole map, you still have to run around to show the entire map. Only game with this for a good reason
@@waleedfarooqi5998Not at all. The only reason for you to run around the whole map in the games before it is to find collectibles. Viewpoints unlock the view of all the relevant/accessible parts of the map, nothing less.
You’re right. There isn’t a bad Assassins Creed game. Just underwhelming in some areas. They’re all good and each has a different personality and play style for every player. We never want the devs to make it like the original. Copy and paste style. Just make it better with the things we love about them. And the things we want
@@sefugt7078currently nearly finishing the game. Decent but it's riddled with flaws. Only reason i kept playing is actually the DLCs, like in Odyssey the story kicks in high gear in the DLCs. Siege of Paris was good, not amazing but good, the mechanics of plotting assassinations was a good touch i wish they adapted more. Now, my actual gripe, the graphics, oh my days what the hell is wrong with this game's engine, the textures go to shit randomly, details and screwed, audio is ass, and the rustling bush audio bug is insanity, and the stupid fucking climbing system is so bad it costed me several times. Valhalla is a letdown, odyssey was my favorite game for one reason, Kassandra is such a well written character and the story is amazing just like the world, the combat in both games are.. too shallow for my taste. Ubisoft has people who can do well there are moments when the creativity shines but their directions are abysmal and the lack of care for gameplay functions.
The thing about AC Unity is that they wanted to portray Arnos life as a kid to as an adult, making you feel the sadness as your character feels those emotions aswell. That’s why they didn’t focus on the French Revolution
I’ve been playing through all Assassin Creed games since the end of December. I started with Valhalla for whatever reason but then went in order of release. I’m on Origins now and though I’m nearing the end it’s been a blast going through all of them back to back!!
I think Connor got a bad wrap. We had three games with a character from birth to his death. He was a funny playboy to start and we watched him grow. Connor had a much different upbringing with watching almost his entire tribe (including his mother) die. That's quite a bit different from Ezio. So of course Connor would have a totally separate attitude. People seemed to me to want more of the same which they did not get. I found Connor to be a step in the right direction. Change is a good thing. The only thing I didn't like was the first few hours with Hytham. He just bored the hell out of me.
What killed Odyssey for me was being unable to turn off the Enemy Auto Level. I'm not a serious gamer. I play to have fun and lose myself in these worlds. I don't want to spend hours trying to kill some boss and constantly get killed. I usually get about 5 levels above and then have a better chance of killing a boss and getting back to the game.
You can turn it off when was the last time you played? Because i am re playing Odyssey right now and you can change it from high, medium, and low. Low makes it so enemies can be up to 4 levels below yours. And high makes it so enemies are like 4 levels above you.
To be honest I really liked Valhalla...yes the story and the game in general was so big but the grind felt so good with a variety of side missions,the characters were good in my opinion...the only thing that I didn't like was the ending but other than that it was a very good game with good stealth mechanics and good combat
I always loved ACIII, everyone was hating on it for being a "potato selling simulator" but what I liked about it is that Connor could be a focused assassin that rushes through the main story, a sensitive, yet couragous man that cared about the manor and wanted to expand the settlement near it, a naval devil that conquered the waves, or a treasure hunter. I also loved that you could be either a lone wolf, or grow yourself some other Assassins by your side to match the Squad Haytham gathered. I loved that the scen when connor is about to be executed changes depending on how many Assassins connor gathered alongside him. love this game forever!
While I agree with most of these I honestly thought that the keyboard & mouse control scheme of the Ezio games (plus AC1) was really good, so much so that I often rebind the keys of the later games (minus the RPG games) to mimic the older ones
Completely agree, RMB to high profile makes SO much easier to control parkour(since the system depends A LOT on camera angles and directional inputs), the only change i make really is the interact/empty hands/(and later)parkour down from 'e' to a side mouse button.
I started with black flag as my first game, so when I started playing AC1 I was confused, but then it clicked and it made a lot of sense, while I do not prefer one over the other I enjoy playing either form of control settings
I find it funny that people specifically hate those controls on KBM lol, controllers were way worse xD I'd much rather have them put a counterintuitive "LT to jump, RT + LT to free run" than having jumping on A/X and being unable to turn the camera in most situations. Especially now that I'm replaying all the games, finished with Ezio collection on ps a few days ago and that difference in controls in AC3 is practically immeasurable, I just love how easy it feels even with a controller to just run around and look cool and have full camera control on top of that
I don't like enemy levels in the later games. I love Syndicate but the enemies are damage sponges. Plus it's a better power fantasy when Edward and Connor can solo armies when needed
I disagree, the more exaggerated and cool animations in Syndicate give a more power fantasy vibe to me It's like a dialed up version of the arkham combat that the games were mimicking and I love it
I think the reason the story of Unity just suffered (besides the problems that break immersion like bugs) was because in the books, the main character is Elise ( note: her story wasnt gold like Edwards but it helps flesh her out atleast) but since rogue didnt do well perhaps they didnt think people were interested in playing as templars at all, so instead opted to write it from Arnos perspective but hes not given much to do in the books other than what you see in the games.
That can’t be it unity and rogue released the same day. So maybe ACU ´s story failed cuz Elise was the main character but the reason they chose not to center it on her isn’t rogue
Shay's relevance was dropped, the whole conflict of cooperating with templars vs antagonizing them to the bitter end kinda got speedran with the Belec issue, the romance sorta gets no resolution...the whole story of Unity felt like they had to rush it out the door like they had to with the gameplay. And yeah, as the other guy said Unity and Rogue were released together to take advantage of next gen hype (because having a functional game wouldn't be better apparently?) so it ain't that issue.
@@natchu96 im aware of the whole next gen part as well yes as well as the other problems suffered by both Rogue's and Unity's development, i just figured id add some new useful information with it as another reason why the story wasnt good since they had nothing to work with, as thats a point ive never seen anyone make either
I don’t think Elise would have been the most compelling character to be during the time period. The French Revolution was very much a revolution led by men, and access/involvement to various events would have been hindered or forced.
@@chrismoore5333 Spoken like someone who clearly don't know wtf you're talking about and obviously never even read them. lmao Ezio literally mentioned Altair's journal from The Secret Crusade novel that he read before he reached Constantinople. Connor literally read Haytham's journal from Forsaken novel which was how he learned about his grandfather being an assassin. Arno also mentioned to have read Elise's diary from the Unity novel in Dead Kings. Bayek's backstory pretty much established in Desert Oath novel and led into the game's intro.
I not agree with Unity. I think one of the problems with AC3 is that the story centers too much in the american revolution. Is a game about the revolution with an Assassin, not a game about an Assassin in the american revolution. That is one of the reasons Connor failed as a protagonist, he was not the important thing in the story, the revolution was. Unity do that thing perfectly in my opinion, is the story of an assassin in the french revolution, the time period is relevant in the story but the game centers in Arno. Not liking the story is a completely valid opinion, but wanting that the story centered more in the revolution story for me is a mistake.
I really like Connor, his focused and serious personality fits the assassin theme way better, that's why he is one of my favorite characters besides Altair. Ezio is just overrated
Ezio has the advantage of multiple games to develop him more fully as a character. I would’ve liked at least one more game with Connor to see him continue maturing and developing the Assassin order in America further.
Well about conner I don’t think it’s really fair to compare them to Ezio had a trilogy All to himself and about Connor not being as charming Connor lost his village and young age and was betrayed multiple times I don’t think he would be charming like Ezio and The only reason they made heyfrom likable what is the strengthen the message that there is no good guys
My comparison is based on going from one to the other. It's the only character I can compare Connor too because he's the next up in the series. Ubisoft set the bar with Ezio very high and the next one after was underwhelming (IMO)
@@Theagentofchaos-r5q there is a lot about him to like. Very underated. Unfortunately many people don't understand his character and tend to like more generic characters like ezio.
What I hated about Syndicate was how Evie was portrayed as being flawless. It would have been fine if we didn’t have to play missions where Evie has to “fix” the problems that arise from Jacob’s missions. It would be fine if she didn’t have those missions or if Jacob had his own missions where Evie’s focus on the mission caused her to get allies killed or captured and Jacob has to save them.
I just wanted more interaction between the twins that showed greater team work. I felt like their missions and characterizations were unbalanced and could have done so much more. The idea of assassin twins with their own strengths and weaknesses and own approaches to missions could have been cool. Jacob building a gang/assassin empire by taking out the London gangs and Evie missions focusing on stealthier missions where you infiltrate areas or retrieve information that benefit their new empire. Instead Jacob gets more of the missions and screen time and Evie barely gets much to do later in the game besides missions where she has to "fix" something Jacob did wrong.
Well, that's just down to the game's poor writing as a whole. Jacob is an idiot who acts before thinking things through, and Evie is hyperfixated on the piece of eden. With Jacob's actions causing mishaps due to lack of a replacement figure to handle the now vacant job Evie sets things right because she thinks ahead with those types of things and fixes the issues he causes easily because having a backup for the target is pretty normal for the assassin's by this point. Jacob simply wants to kill and "free" London and not care for the repercussions of his actions. Nor does he really accept them as his fault. Just so the twins can have some form of conflict between each other that gets resolved in seconds.
You're describing exactly how the game works though? Evie does get the lion's share of the stealth missions and on top of that they're absolutely not all just following Jacob around cleaning his messes up - a big story beat is quite literally her making him solve a problem he's created@@Pooky1991 She also wasn't portrayed as flawless at all and I don't know how you come away thinking that @OP She's very obviously made out to be tooooo acquiescent to the Creed, too uptight and logic-orientated, too idealistic. All good qualities up to a point, so yeah she comes across as 'perfect', but the game isn't reaaaaally that subtle about being like "and man is she annoying and inflexible because of it". I think the Dickens missions really highlight where the game is critiquing her character.
@@jackknowles5295 what are you talking about she literally gets missions where she has to fix the power vacuum that Jacob created when he killed his targets. That’s a fact, none of his missions are him doing the same is just irritating. And you’re saying her flaw is that she’s too inflexible? Yeah that would matter if they actually cause significant problems like Jacob’s flaws did. All I’m asking for is for her to have missions where she gets to fuck up as well. Only one I can think of is when she decided to save Greene and it’s IMMEDIATELY fixed afterwards
Nah I like that Evie’s missions are about cleaning up the mess Jacob left after doing all the things we would do without thinking about how it affects the greater story
Happy to see players showing love for Origins as there was too much hate on it (in my country specially) but I loved it and would go for Platinum again if there was option
I like Connor Connor lost his mother. He has the right to not trust anyone. And even if Charles Lee did not burn his village Lee treated Connor like trash, innocent child just playing games with his friends. Connor would be a better man if he didn't have Achilles around. To me Achilles was the worst character People dislike Connor because they had 3 games with Ezio so they loved him like he was a real person Odyssey isn't even a assassin or hidden one game it's just spartan So I don't get why it even exists Kenway saga will always be my favorite And I want yo say your making great videos
Hot take: Origins was one of the worst ac games imo cause the combat was shit if u wanted to complete the story u needed to be a certain level the only thing that carried it was its story.
My biggest problem with Odyssey and Valhalla, is that they have "Assassin's Creed" in the name. How do you make a game called "Origins" and a year later release a game that predates "Origins" by 400 years? Or release an "Assassin's Creed" where the not-so-hidden blade is just given away freely to someone who simply refuses to join the Hidden Ones
For me in Origins the level scaling is so bad! Like you have to get to level 10 just to meet Aya in Alexandria and also side missions give a lot less exp so you have to waste hours just to get on a certain level.
I kinda suprise about your take on Syndicate, yeah i see all your point, but for some reason I focus on take over all london first before actually progress in the main story. So maybe I like that system more
I think you couldn't have historical figures like Leonardo da Vinci, Niccolo Machiavelli or Bartolomeo d'Alviano in Revelations because of historical accuracy. That leaves Claudia, La Volpe and Ezio's mom. As for Claudia, she's at least mentioned. And Volpe and Ezio's mom would've been quite old at that point in time, so they're probably dead
Assassin's Creed: I didn't like the parkour mechanics and lack of subtitles. There's not much to nitpick because the story was good. Assassin's Creed Ezio Trilogy: I didn't like how evil the Templars were. The first game made you think and it wasn't so black and white about who the good guys and bad guys are. It's a no brainer that the Assassins were the heroes while the Templars no longer had redeeming qualities. They tried with Ahmed but he was still a piece of shit behind a smile. Assassin's Creed 3: I would say that i didn't like the lack of Assassins in the game. I get that they were wiped out by the Templars earlier but by the end of the game i wish you could've recruited more than just 6 people so they would have more of a presence in the game. I loved the Assassin recruit missions and building them up though. Black Flag: I didn't like the first person in the modern day parts and i didn't like how Edward already has the skills of a Master Assassin with no explanation. It kinda diminishes the training all the previous Assassins had to go through if Edward learned it all through piracy. Rogue: Same thing with the Ezio trilogy. I didn't like how the Assassins were written to be terrorists who went against their own creed to justify Shay joining the Templars. They could've came up with a better reason for him to switch sides rather than demonizing the Assassins and writing Achilles out of character. Also, the Assassins were way too easy to beat. It should've been more of a challenge since we're hunting them for the first time. Unity: Too long, Boring, none of the characters had depth or development, villain was lame and forgettable except Bellec. It was hard to relate to Arno eveb though i tried. Syndicate: You didn't feel like an Assassin playing as Jacob but felt like one with Evie but i guess that's the point because of the characters personalities. It was ok. Could've been better. 🤷 Origins: Didn't like how you couldn't play as Aya even though it's her revenge story too since her and Bayek both lost their son. Her story could've been interesting since she's Amunet. Odyssey: Too much Isu not enough Assassin's Creed. The Isu being a mystery worked for the franchise. Unraveling the mystery ruins it in a way. Valhalla: Same problem as Odyssey. Too much Isu, not enough Assassin's Creed. They threw in the Hidden Ones and Order of Ancients and the Hidden Blade to remind you of the franchise but it wasn't enough. Too much god stuff to where i felt like i was playing either the Witcher or RPG with superpowers. Mirage: I didn't care too much about Basim in Valhalla. Why they decided to give him a game i have no idea. Especially since he's basically Loki and will stab the Assassins in the back in the modern day. I look forward to seeing what they'll do but i have some doubts. Going back to it's roots shouldn't be a selling point.
Ac1: slow climbing Ac2 : kinda long Ac Brotherhood : stuck in 1 city (Didn't play rev) Ac3 : the combat sometimes is just so tedious and slow and you can't do shit to certain enemies Ac4 : The naval combat missions are hard af (Didn't play rouge) Ac Unity : cant dodge bullets Ac Syndicate : slow combat+ not enough side content Ac Origins : the fact that you can't defeat certain enemies if you're in a low level Ac Odyssey : almost everything but mainly the amount of grinding you need to do and how long it is like it took me 3 or 4 hours to get to level 12 in Origins and to get to level 12 in Odessey I grinded for 8 hours through random encounters with enemies 3 levels above me that took me an hour and a half to beat and the side missions that are just plain boring (Didn't play Valhalla)
Wait, what's wrong with AC2 control on pc? The right mouse button for running pretty much the perfect placement because you can both control the camera and run at the same time
Hot take but imo only reason Ezio is as loved and most people’s favourite assassin is cause he has 3 games and we saw him develop throughout his entire life don’t get me wrong I still love him but give any other assassin ( especially Arno or Connor) a trilogy where we can see their development and they’d be just as iconic and popular if not more
more games = more connection, if edward had a trilogy he'd be my favorite because im pretty sure after 3 games we'd know so much more about him and connect more
@@TheHiddenOne690 exactly my point yeah there’s definitely better characters that aren’t as appreciated because we don’t get as much time with them, an Edward trilogy would be amazing same as a connor trilogy to really flesh his character out and watch him rebuild the colonial brotherhood, can only hope maybe one day we’ll get sequels for some very deserving assassins 🤞
For unity my problem with it would be how buggy and uncontrollable the parkour feels at times. It has the best looking parkour but probably not one of the best controls for the parkour.
i'm not asking you to "git gud" but the parkour in the game can actually be really smooth IF you are good at it believe me, i absolutely despised the parkour when i first played the game and i thought it was buggy and unresponsive after a few hours in the game i got used to the controls and liked the parkour very much
@@Sh0ckVthat's nonsense. Even best youtubers who are great at Unity keep pointing out that the parkour in it is broken and they found loopholes to make it work like 30% of time.
AC1 was good, but the Ezio collection was PERFECT. And I felt AC3 was also a lovely game with Connor being a Badass Main Character (not so likeable as Ezio but still my most fav character). I felt the Combat and features leveling up in AC3 from its predecessors. And Black Flag being one of the best AC game out there. It was the last game I felt being a COMPLETE Assassins game. Ig since Unity and Rogue came out together, Ubisoft focused mostly on Unity for the next gen console (PS4 and all) than Rogue and just went and used everything from Black Flag and kind of... rushed it. But still, its a very underrated game imo. Rogue sure feels like a DLC but is a great game too. Unity's Parkour and Graphics were some of the best in the whole series but Arno as a character was ...not so cool. AC Syndicate was a nice, balanced game but had a lot of flaws than strengths and I always have a sour feeling about it. Lack of connection to the main line games and less parkour option than the previous, Unity, gave a little off vibe but is still a very good game. AC Origins was kind of a SOFT REBBOT to the series, and I dont mind at all. It was a great game with stunning gameplay and feel with a immerse story. (Haven't played Odyssey and Valhalla and I think... I am not even going to, but surely will check out Mirage!)
I actually thought that Arno's relationship with Elise was the only believable thing in the story. Everything else was really forgettable with no memorable characters other than maybe Bellec and Napoleon. And both were severely underutilized with barely any screen time.
I have to disagree with unity respectfully, I absolutely loved the story and was a huge reason why I fell in love with the game. I also really liked connor
I disagree with a few of those tales but that’s not to say you’re wrong about the things you said. Like I really loved rogue but that doesn’t mean it isn’t indeed black flag 1.5
I do not understand the AC2 bad controlls. Honestly Ezio trilogy felt the most finished in terms of "I want to go there and character does what i ask him to do". Right mouse button for sprint is weird, but it was like that since AC1 and AC2 did not reinvent the wheel in here. What i hate about it is aiming of the gun or knives. I can understand why ezio stops, but using this weird animus laser and it automatically locking on target is meh.
Assassins creed 3/4. AC3/4 was okay, but to me the cons are not what all the peasants complained about. I love the Mohican Native tribe, I love the British ,I love the fact that you start as Hatham, a freemason (In this game ''templar'' means freemason/illuminati) and I adore when AC shows the '' universal enemy'' that the propaganda of today wants you to see as the ''bad guys '' (British/Crusaders) as not actually so bad and perhaps the ''good guys'' from a different perspective. I loved that I could kill more Yanks in this game than the British ,although I wish your choices would reflect on what side you choose to ally with and not automatically end up working for the yanks. If your actions had a more profound effect and you ended up supporting the British in the end, the game would be 100 times better. But I digress, this is not the worst part of the game for me. I don't care 1 bit about the story outside of history/the animus, I just want the historical content. My favorite ACs are 1,Origins,2,Brotherhood and Unity. Revelations' setting of Constantinople was superb, but the half arsed npc design ( copy and paste potato face) really placed that game on the back burner for me. Medieval, in cities that are policed by soldiers , guards and police forces , shows exactly why stealth and assassins were a reality/necessity. Those settings are superb. But to be in an open world with sprawling fields ,fighting against armies with rifles/muskets is what makes the game/setting dim-witted and non enjoyable to me. There is no need for stealth when you fight mostly in fields and in reality, if you come up against a professional army of line infantry , you will be mowed down by a volley of musket fire within 10 seconds of an engagement. That is why I don't care for this ASSASSINS creed. AC 3 and Black flag doesn't feel one bit like assassins creed games...and that is not a bad thing.
For me Syndicate was the hardest to get through. I liked Evie’s character arc and the grapple system, and the WW1 expansion but that’s about it. It was just very boring to me for some reason. I might give it another go, but ya. Unity, while its parkour was indeed pretty awesome was also a let down. The side missions were overly difficult to get full sync on. Of course that maybe because I had to play them alone. For some reason I also just found myself not liking the story. I can’t pinpoint why. It just wasn’t my cup of tea. I’m totally with you on Origins being the best and wishing that I could play as Aya/Amunet
I feel like them letting you play as Haytham and then Conner is to show you the stark contrast between them, we see why conner goes from a happy kid to a reserved adult, trauma, his village is burned down, mother killed, and all by the group his father is with. Now this is all my speculation as Conner is my 2nd favorite assassin right after my boy Edward
The worst part about Odyssey is that it unfortunately had “Assassins Creed”next to it If the title of that was removed,then we had a rather interesting Greek/Roman setting of a cool game that actually was unique in a way But because it had Assassins creed next to it,it was then compared to the AC games,therefore it was framed as being driven and nothing like AC when I believe it really wasn’t their intention to make an AC styled game
The thing that people need to understand is the reason why Connor kenway is the way that he is because, let's be real, could YOU really still be lively and energetic and happy after seeing your home village being destroyed and seeing your mother died infront of your eyes and being betrayed by your allies like Connor was with the patriot!? Honestly, I would be like Connor. If I had to go through what he went through, I'm going really sick and tired of people complaining that Connor has no life or character to him!
4:50 Min.: Ask of Tasted. In my Eyes in the Pike of this Games Syndicate if its cames to a good AC but also Blackflag and 3 love i. In the moment i played my frist run form AC Odyessey and i must say as a AC Game saw cames the Stealth Game play to short. I try my best to play it stealthy like the games befor but if you try this you see that the game isnt made to be played in stealth. If you just go full rambo its goes much more easy. So if you see Odessey as a RPG and NOT as a AC then its a realy great Game but its a bad AC. If i have to ranket them in the moment and i dont have saw the end of Odyessey i would ranket them in the follow way (Explains follows): 15. Mirage 14. Vahalla 13. AC1 12. Freedom Cry 11. Liberations 10. Rogue 9. AC2 8. Orgins 7. Unity 6. Brotherhood 5. AC3 4. Revalations 3. Black Flag 2. Odyessey 1. Syndicate To the Resoning: 15. I cant Judge because i havent played it yet but i will in future 14. Same goes like it was by 15. ^^ 13. To many issues that arent fixed. And a Story there the Missions are to repetitive. To less invoations. Its Starts all yes but this protect it not form my logical and hard judgement. 12. Machete is a lot of fun. But you feel hard that its a dlc of blackflag. 11. Same goes for here. But the Gameplay as a fine lady and to be seductive and trick the mens to get your way was insane mich fun and that you have a umbrella gun let me feel like a little kid as i play with umbrellas like i have once let me feel good and i want a hole ac main game with this gameplay :D huge fun. Sadly that its last so short. :/ 10. Nice intersting story. Good game but not so good as what cames. ^^ 9. Much better then the Game befor. They learned form there past misstakes and this feel you. 8. Great game but the Stealth cames me to short. If you would saw it as a rpg its higher at the list but so i only can ranket it there. And i dont like how aya and bayak end up. I was hoped for a hearth warming happy ending for them :< 7. Why elise! Why arent you hear to him :< im so sad that arno dont got the happy end. 6. AC2 in insanely better ^^ 5. The Hunting and the Gameplay realy good ^^ 4. Pike Ezio Gameplay ^^ 3. I love Pirates 2. Too good Game to rank it lower. I have play until short befor i saw the Kings of Sparta so i cant final judge. 1. Unity in much better and perfect plot. And you feel like kim possible ^^
Currently playing Odyssey, I like it but I hate how boring the repetitive the side quests are and how MANY there are. Oh my god can I please have something different to do other than "Give me money" or "Go to a small camp and kill some bandits" They're all the same! I never liked the naval battles in the RPG games either, Black Flag perfected it and it made more logical sense since they had cannons, In the RPG thing it just looks so stupid seeing your crew aim arrows in perfect sync and take down another ship, sorry but that's just retarded lol People may hate Valhalla but at least the side missions were all actually unique. If My Playstation didn't take a shit and die during my playthrough of Valhalla I would have definitely ranked it as one of my top 5 ass creed games. I never played through the whole story but I spent over 200 hours on the game just exploring the amazing and huge world. I also never liked in Syndicate (A personal favourite of mine) how forced and contrived the relationship between Henry and Evie was. Henry just seemed like a creep. It's worse in the Oliver Bowden book where Evie wets her knickers and acts like a giggly schoolgirl every time Henry is mentioned.
I feel the absence of familiar faces in Revelations works in the plot's favor. His sister and Machiavelli are the only ones within the Brotherhood that we know for a fact are still around, and even Leonardo was historically living in France at this point. It really underlines how solitary Ezio feels, having been walking the path of an Assassin for so long that there's not really anyone left but him. It makes his ultimate decision to retire even more understandable.
the main stuff i hate about odyssey is the non linear story, i completed the odyssey quests , but didnt even complete the kosmos cult and the atlantis key, its way too long, half the map is unexplored even after completing kassandra/alexios storyline, i stopped there and watched youtube endings of the main story to find out kassandra becomes immortal and lived till the present and she sets out to explore the world, to be honest the kassandras storyline was actually great, the freedom to choose the ending was innovative, and theres too many suspenses and twist as well, but being non linear and this long makes me hate it , i ve put in 45 hours just to reach the lvl 43 and end the game at family reunion
actually, you only get into open combat in Syndicate if you're inexperienced at the game. I went into it, and at hour 10 and I was already shadow killing enemies like a pro, and that's actually the way the game should be played. Open combat is only for rookie.
I never understand this common opinion about connor being boring just because is not an identical copy of ezio; for me it was perfect that he was so different, and the fact that he's nor "charming" doesn't mean autonatically that he's boring; he's young, he's angry, he's unexperienced but he has an iron will, which makes it perfect to face villains that, for the first time in the series, are not all evil assholes but complex political figures that each time put his ideals in doubt
One thing i hate about ac3 is the pacing you star as a haytham in sequence 1-4 wich i dont minde but them in sequence 5 you play hide and seek as child connor then hunt as a teen ,leave you village to go to ackilles, then trained .you get it! You get to assassin connor in sequence 8! And they are 12 sequence! We get to the assassin vs templar conflict so late . Ubisoft should of make a game for haytham and a game for connor because we get never ending tutorial in ac3!
I have played AC, AC2, Syndicate and Origins and I really enjoyed how the franchise evolved. About syndicate, I partly understand your comment about repetitive gang missions, however seeing your gameplay, I get why. As for me, taking over the boroughs was quite brilliant as I would enjoy stalking the target from roof tops and use the hallucinogen darts and thin the herd. IT was fun for me. On origins, its surprising many like Aya, but to me she was responsible for the change that Bayek had to go through and I dislike her for that. The VA who delivered the last dialogue for bayek during the last vanilla mission, the pain for the loss of his son, and the dissolution of his family, it was so heart breaking. But Aya was just meh.
I highly disagree that Assassin's Creed 1 needs different Sidemissions since you are 100% an Assassin sincenearly birth and not like Ezio, a child of a italian banker family, or like Ezio a pirate. That's why AC1 is a true AC game. all other are less and less in each new game. would be the same if you add unnecessary sidecontent to Splinter Cell, Hitman or Ghost Recon or such...
1 is still my favorite so far. (Only played 1, 2, Black Flag and Origins) Yeah its repetitive, but at least its short (Unless you go for the flags) and the combat felt the best out of those i played.
My list: 1. Odyssey (I know people will hate it for not being the traditional AC game, but I enjoyed the setting, the story and the combat) 2. AC 2 (Ezio, that’s all I have to say) 3. AC Origins (Great setting, lackluster beginning of the brotherhood, and wrong protagonist, yet Bayek is an ok protagonist and the combat was good) 4. AC brotherhood (AC 2 on steroids, but a little short) 5. AC Black Flag (didn’t connect much with it, but at the time naval combat was very cool) 6. AC Unity (Amazing setting, beautiful graphics and movement, but boring plot? 7. AC 3 (I love the game, but I can see the pacing problems it has and as much a I like American history, the game butchers it and Connor is just too dull) 8. AC Syndicate (boring, more of the same) 9. AC 1 (Ok, I started with AC 2 and don’t care much for the story of AC 1 or it’s characters, maybe a remake can change my mind, we can all say that the game that basically introduced us to AC deserves merit, but the game isn’t particularly fun to play). 10. AC revelations (I was super interested in this game, but the story was dull, feels like more of the same, the only positive is Ezio) 11. AC rogue (never peaked my interest) 12. AC Valhalla (boring, too long, uninteresting characters, nonsense with Norse myth, horrible pacing, just a game to suffer on and on, the game has some moments of brilliance, but not much)
Heres is my list. AC 1: The repeatabillity of the main story. AC 2: The random difficulty spike at the end AC Broterhood: The apple sequence in chapter 8 AC Revalation: The really unfocussed storylines and the bad merging of them AC 3 The main story AC 4 Black flag: Tailing mission AC Rouge Lack of memorable characters AC unity: Awful phasing AC syndicate: Content to repeated AC Origins: Bad sidequest AC Oddysey: Lack of narative impacts Did not play AC valhalla
I give Connor's personality a pass. I don't claim to know how social interactions worked with his particular culture but we have to remember he was a Native who (like all of them) got caught up in a white man's war. He's half-white but wasn't raised that way. Then there's the fact his mother died in front of him when his village was burned. That's enough to shut down any jovialness he had growing up. He seemed more world-weary than anything. Throw him into the Assassin-Templar conflict and it doesn't make it any easier. AC3 was truly an outsider story and I commend Ubisoft for choosing a Native as the core Assassin. It helps paint a more complete picture of the Revolution and serves to remind us that it was a terrible war for everyone, despite the reasons why it was fought. I'm fond of saying that if American history buffs were made uncomfortable by AC3, that's a good thing. We shouldn't forget how the First Nations suffered in that time.
1. Boring Abstergo segments. 2. No mission replay. B. Full sync trash. Rev. Bombs are superfluous. 3. No more passive income 4. Epic ship fights R. Animus fragments U. Streaming software hates it S. Too cheery male lead Origins - No amount of overleveling can make you feel overpowered
I like AC Origins, but it’s pretty easy to find flaws. The beginning was really jarring and poorly executed, and several Order of the Ancients members were bland (I basically only remember the Scarab and Crocodile missions).The main antagonist was also really forgettable, making the ending feel muddled and unsatisfying. And they did Cleopatra dirty. To be honest, Bayek and the setting itself carried the game for me pretty hard.
I disliked the entire AC Odyssey... The boss fights were great, but shit story and shit characters... But I actually loved Ac Valhalla, the brought back the Sage concept and also the modern day and isu story finally progressed,it was really a great game with a good story, the Viking experience was good too, my only complaint is that at the end Eivor didn't become an Hidden one, still it's my 3rd favourite AC game.... My ranking goes like this - 1. AC Ezio trilogy 😅 2. AC Origins 3. AC Valhalla
My personal list: AC 1: Combat and repetitiveness AC2: Combat Brotherhood: Slower parkour, Rome was a downgrade from previous cities and a mediocre ending with conveniences in the plot throughout the game and Cesare was terrible as a villain. Revelations: No Assassin Contracts and basically Brotherhood but with better story but less content. AC3: Parkour has more realistic animations but it's very automatic. Black Flag: Even worse parkour than 3 and tailing Rogue: Idk worse maps. Unity: Combat is buggy, the story is mid, some side content is ridiculous and parkour is inconsistent (still my favorite). Origins: It's a fucking rpg, they took out the parkour and basically isn't an AC game besides the story
My List Assassin's Creed - Repetitive Side Content Assassin's Creed II - Combat Is Slow Even 1's combat was better Assassin's Creed Brotherhood - Ending Too Rushed Assassin's Creed Revelations - Wanted Level Keeps Increasing When Renovating Assassin's Creed 3 - Starting Is Toooooooo Long Assassin's Creed Liberation - Boring Assassin's Creed IV Blackflag - No Land Wanted System For A Pirate Assassin's Creed Rogue - Assassins were too easy to kill Assassin's Creed Unity - Items are too expensive to purchase using in game currency Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Cartoony finishers especially the multi combat finishers Assassin's Creed Origins: Forced to level up by playing side quests to continue main story. Assassin's Creed Odyssey - It's existence Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Combat/Stealth sucks balls. Damn Origins and Odyssey's parkour is better than Valhalla
What I hate on Odyssey is thing that is in most of RPGs of this type, yet developers, not just Ubisoft, are STILL doing it. And that is: Do you know the situation when you find some LEGENDARY weapon, with great stats, and usefulness and even *special* ability... ONLY to throw it away in like 5 minutes, because those stats don't matter, some random shit common weapon is better because it has bigger level.
Honestly there is no assassins creed game that is perfect. Generally the franchise is a total travesty and it has an incredibly repetitive gameplay. And yet we learned how to fall for this year by year. I think its time for some new devs to come to ubisoft. Either young motivated talents or ones that worked for years in bigger studios, studios that put passion in their games. Its crazy to think that this games have so much potential to get recognised by more people but I admit it is challenging with such a closed concept. Its also really hard to back up the hype with the trailers they make. Ubisoft might be a cruel company recently but their trailers are the highest quality my eyes have ever seen when it come to cinematography.
Valhalla was by far too long with too many needless “missions” Barely 1/4 of the way through I found myself button jamming to skip the long drawn out conversations. Halfway through I started skipping the story cinematics that didn’t involve Sigurd or Basim.
Assassin's Creed 1 issue: no subtitles Assassin's Creed 2 issue: those damn feathers Assassin's Creed BH issue: Lucys fate Assassin's Creed R issue: Them first person bridge building and stutters. Assassin's Creed 3 issue: Connor was unnecessary and they ruines Desmond story killing him off in a game that should have been focusing on the present.
What?! I love Syndicate. I didn't realize Syndicate was overhated. And I cannot agree more about Vahalla. It was so goddamn boring and the story was a drag. Vahalla felt so foreign to me and felt like an actual Vikings game that I don't care about. If Vahalla didn't have the Assasin's Creed name, I wouldn't have bought it.
The things I didn't like about each game Ac1: losing all your skills even though it makes no sense Ac2:mission replay not existing Brotherhood: the bank system Rev: mini games Ac3: hunting animals or not harvesting them causes desync Ac4: legendary ships were annoying Rogue:felt to similar OG:spongy enemies and level gating OD:spongey enemies level gating Val: far too long and boring

th-cam.com/video/nkfOhbR8Pt8/w-d-xo.html
i get it that you have your opinion but there are 10 more severly bad things about few of these games and you are pointing at something that most players do not care about .
@@miachelsanta7763 When i make videos. I make them based on my thoughts and opinions. I do not cater to an audience. I hope you realise that. You may have entirely different dislikes from each game, but if I have different thoughts. Why would I talk about your dislikes when this channel is purely my thoughts. I hope you understand.
Take for example, my favorite AC game is origins. Yours is probably something else. Does that make me wrong? No. Does it make you wrong? No. Everything is all about opinions.
@@miachelsanta7763the only thing I can think of that I didn’t agree with was ACR. Not because he was wrong, it’s just because Constantinople SUCKED. Made it hard to play the game for me
Since I'm an introvert, I did bond with Connor really well and I like him a lot. Perhaps not as much as Ezio, but I would put him in my top 5 characters. I also think the worst thing about brotherhood is that if you fail full synch, you must restart the whole mission. We must also note that Ubisoft Sofia (AC Rogue's developers) didn't make a main AC game before and had only 8 months to create AC Rogue.
Same, I’m also a reserved person so I understood why Connor was the way he was. And connected and liked him more than most. You see more of his personality and openness through the homestead missions also.
@@DeadmansCreed Glad to find another person with the same opinion as me
For Brotherhood, if you desync, the thing will reset. You probably confused it with Revelations, since in that game you do have to restart.
@@user-jr8cz3if6n I meant full synch, not basic synch. If you fail the optional objective you have to restart, and god this bloody tank mission...
I did as well. Plus he's from a warrior society which gave him a different approach than most assassin's in the series. I like to compare him to Bayek who is also more of a warrior than an.assassin, but will protect those close to him. The Homestead missions really show this aspect of his character.
I got bored with Unity. But decided to give it a try in the first place because people were telling me it had a good story and good parkour. But i found the story and france to be boring as hell and depressing honestly. I played Syndicate and honestly my favourite thing about it was in the Jack the ripper dlc, short as it was. But you're on point, that game was repetitive as hell.
My problem with Brotherhood however, despite being one of my favourite, is how that is when the series started to get really easy with its combat.
You felt like a master Assassin sure, but there was no challenge anymore.
Same with revelations, but that one just felt so off. I didn't like Constantinople, and i hated how they just jumped ahead so many years, having Ezio just leave Italy behind all of a sudden.
Rogue had an amazing story in my opinion, but gameplay wise it did mostly feel like Black Flag, except that now you kill Assassin's instead and some can ambush you. I loved seeing more of Haytham, but Shay felt like i character i could connect to, as i've been ostracized and treated poorly in the past for pointing out how wrong some peoples behaviors are in places like a martial arts club where there often is an arrogant cult like mentality going on.
The last one i've played was Odyssey. It's a fun game if you ignore the historical inaccuracies, and how ridiculous the powers you can get are.
But it took me about 20 hours or so to actually enjoy the story and gameplay. A game should never be like that.
ac odyssey was so long that by the time I found out who the leader of the cult was i had forgotten who Aspasia was
Agreed, I absolutely loved the setting but the grinding made it unbearable to play
@@vernonparker5154I loved exploring it, got mildly annoyed because I forgot the story during the missions
@@vernonparker5154I dunno took me a single evening to google all the cultist locations and knock ‘em off. Was decently engaging
@@vernonparker5154 it was fun.. ur just forgetful
I was so frustrated with unity's story. The cinematic trailer made me think it would be about helping out the revolution and assassinating the templar nobles. They could even do a 180 where arno turns against the assassins during the reign of terror.
@@chrismoore5333 agreed but that has nothing to do with my comment
@@chrismoore5333how do people misunderstand Desmond? Genuinely curious
@@chrismoore5333 very insightful. I heard a while back that desmond had some kind of personality problem after the all the animus time in AC1 and 2. Like how he made the Altair joke when he saw his statue in brotherhood
Of all the game AC4 is the only one where I found myself mostly bored with the story and checking out of it. Besides a few scenes here and there not much is memorable. The trailer made me think it was also going to bring back assassin recruits in some way, like Arno was going to work his way up the ran and maybe recruit allied assassin's to the revolution and more,, but if you're a single player gamer like me you're pretty much screwed. Instead you mostly get a love story and the revolution is primarily in the background. Ac Brotherhood did the love story better with the side missions related to it, being both tragic and compelling enough not to overshadow the overall conflict of the story.
@@Pooky1991 I skipped those side missions lol. Disagree with ac4 but your opinion.
Yeah considering connor was assaulted by Charles lee and choked against a tree for minutes and having to deal with his mother quite literally burning alive all while he was a kid id imagine he wouldn't be the most open. Im curious if you even touched the homestead missions connor shows alot of appreciation and emotion for the people he met its a whole new side. It should be quite mandatory for people to do the homestead missions before judging him
I think Claudia would've been good to have in AC: Revelations. She could've been their at the start of every sequence talking with Ezio about what he intended to do. Instead of writing letters to her. Letters that could've been easily intercepted.
I think One of the thing they Could have done In Syndicate is that they could also rebuilt the Brotherhood in London.
Gang members only used by Jacob,
Assassins only locked to Evie.
That's what I thought was going to happen because in the beginning I got the sense that Jacob was more of an unorthodox assassin who would utilize gangs like Acheiles did in Rogue and Evie would be the more traditional code following assassins who would take a more stealth and undercover approach. It would have been cool if Jacob used gang members and Evie recruited and used assassin's. Would have added more to the game.
I know this was posted a while ago, but I really wanted to add something. About Assassin's Creed 3 and Connors story, I fully understand your view point on him. And him being nothing like Ezio, but Connor is a character who suffered a terrible experience and most likely had some kind of child hood trauma (But which assassin doesn't have that?) Connor wanted justice and maybe he was dull or maybe even selfish or naive but then again he was still young and never really knew a way to go about things. Connor is entirely a character seen with a introverted and philosophical personally, which he is but is also a person with heart even expressing discomfort after killing William Johnson. He wanted to believe in the Templars and Assassins working together even if it was impossible. We do get to understand Connor more as a person in the homestead mission which really show what Connor is really like outside of battle and away from everything, we can see him be funny,shy,happy,humble,worried and all of the above. It's kinda like when you enter a classroom and your friend isn't there so you become quiet and don't say much,, but when they are there it's a total change up. Connor reminds me of Charles Smith from Red Dead Redemption 2 with their personally. Connor can be dull but it's more of a cover up to how he really is. This probably makes no sense but thats my take anyway Bye!
Dude, i wish I could give you a fat kiss, this is exactly what I love Connor for, silent but strong, kind but just, closed but intelligent, shy but courageous, harsh but fair, the homestead missions always made me feel as if I was doing something for the good of the people and the future. Even though he wasn't as open and charming as Ezio or the other Kenways, he has his own charm.
100% agreed
He also comes from a warrioresque society as well, being trained from a young age on how to survive in rough circumstances on top of wanting to protect his people.
I agree. With what you just said. To me Connor was just an introverted person doing his best to save the world. That’s why I liked him as a character
Connor would be classified under stoicism
I have to disagree with Eivor despite him not being an assassin I still liked him as a protagonist and plus in ac lore he’s actually quite important being responsible for the founding of the Templar order after making Alfred the great sort of resign
Truly Valhalla was the Templar: Origins game
imo unitys story is pretty good i like it, My problem with unity is the muskets and flintlocks, There is no counter other than a weird unpredictable rolling system that doesnt work half the time, Wouldve preferred the system from ac3 where you can use a guard as a bullet shield.
I'm a Connor defender, he's probably got the drippiest default robes in the whole franchise and his fighting style with the tomahawk is iconic. He's not the charismatic ladies man like Ezio was, he's much more introverted and thoughtful.
His arguments with Achilles over action vs inaction, and his interactions with Haytham and the other Templars were the deepest we've seen the protagonist or the games themselves actually discuss the ideologies of the two factions.
What was added to AC1 after the kids comment was the collectable flags. The investigations and, to a lesser extent, citizen saving were part of the main story.
Ac3 worst part is that viewpoints dont unlock the whole map, you still have to run around to show the entire map. Only game with this for a good reason
I think you have to do the same in every game before it
@@waleedfarooqi5998Not at all. The only reason for you to run around the whole map in the games before it is to find collectibles. Viewpoints unlock the view of all the relevant/accessible parts of the map, nothing less.
You’re right. There isn’t a bad Assassins Creed game. Just underwhelming in some areas. They’re all good and each has a different personality and play style for every player.
We never want the devs to make it like the original. Copy and paste style. Just make it better with the things we love about them. And the things we want
*Cough Cough* (AC Valhalla which half the people who played it never bothered to finish)
@@sefugt7078 I don’t disagree I never finished but others loved it who did. My point again there are those who love each one
@@sefugt7078worst one, easily. At least Odyssey had the fantasy and, “this is Sparta!” Element to the game
@@sefugt7078currently nearly finishing the game.
Decent but it's riddled with flaws.
Only reason i kept playing is actually the DLCs, like in Odyssey the story kicks in high gear in the DLCs.
Siege of Paris was good, not amazing but good, the mechanics of plotting assassinations was a good touch i wish they adapted more.
Now, my actual gripe, the graphics, oh my days what the hell is wrong with this game's engine, the textures go to shit randomly, details and screwed, audio is ass, and the rustling bush audio bug is insanity, and the stupid fucking climbing system is so bad it costed me several times.
Valhalla is a letdown, odyssey was my favorite game for one reason, Kassandra is such a well written character and the story is amazing just like the world, the combat in both games are.. too shallow for my taste.
Ubisoft has people who can do well there are moments when the creativity shines but their directions are abysmal and the lack of care for gameplay functions.
@@MohnJarstonWasThere1907havent played valhalla but it looks better then odyssey
The thing about AC Unity is that they wanted to portray Arnos life as a kid to as an adult, making you feel the sadness as your character feels those emotions aswell. That’s why they didn’t focus on the French Revolution
They didn’t focus on the French Revolution until near the end lol
I’ve been playing through all Assassin Creed games since the end of December. I started with Valhalla for whatever reason but then went in order of release. I’m on Origins now and though I’m nearing the end it’s been a blast going through all of them back to back!!
I'm currently at sequence 6 and I can't see at the moment where the hate for Connor comes from, not every protag should be a charming guy.
Hate? I don't hate anything. I dislike.
@@TheHiddenOne690 I'm talking about the community
Ohh fair enough
I think Connor got a bad wrap. We had three games with a character from birth to his death. He was a funny playboy to start and we watched him grow. Connor had a much different upbringing with watching almost his entire tribe (including his mother) die. That's quite a bit different from Ezio. So of course Connor would have a totally separate attitude. People seemed to me to want more of the same which they did not get. I found Connor to be a step in the right direction. Change is a good thing.
The only thing I didn't like was the first few hours with Hytham. He just bored the hell out of me.
What killed Odyssey for me was being unable to turn off the Enemy Auto Level. I'm not a serious gamer. I play to have fun and lose myself in these worlds. I don't want to spend hours trying to kill some boss and constantly get killed. I usually get about 5 levels above and then have a better chance of killing a boss and getting back to the game.
You can turn it off when was the last time you played? Because i am re playing Odyssey right now and you can change it from high, medium, and low. Low makes it so enemies can be up to 4 levels below yours. And high makes it so enemies are like 4 levels above you.
@@brandonpick1486 Thanks. I learned that a while ago. I want it completely off. I want to be way above some enemies. Thank you for helping me.
To be honest I really liked Valhalla...yes the story and the game in general was so big but the grind felt so good with a variety of side missions,the characters were good in my opinion...the only thing that I didn't like was the ending but other than that it was a very good game with good stealth mechanics and good combat
💀
The gang territories didn't bother me in Syndicate simply because i stealthed everything, so i didn't have to deal with the spongey combat.
I honestly saying syndicate is my first assassins creed game and I like it ngl the stealth is very nice and chill
I always loved ACIII, everyone was hating on it for being a "potato selling simulator" but what I liked about it is that Connor could be a focused assassin that rushes through the main story, a sensitive, yet couragous man that cared about the manor and wanted to expand the settlement near it, a naval devil that conquered the waves, or a treasure hunter. I also loved that you could be either a lone wolf, or grow yourself some other Assassins by your side to match the Squad Haytham gathered. I loved that the scen when connor is about to be executed changes depending on how many Assassins connor gathered alongside him. love this game forever!
I never understood how a game about pirates, had more stealty involved than most of the other games.
Aspasia goes from wearing blue to purple(showing control over Athens to control over the entire conflict). I always thought it was a nice touch
While I agree with most of these I honestly thought that the keyboard & mouse control scheme of the Ezio games (plus AC1) was really good, so much so that I often rebind the keys of the later games (minus the RPG games) to mimic the older ones
Completely agree, RMB to high profile makes SO much easier to control parkour(since the system depends A LOT on camera angles and directional inputs), the only change i make really is the interact/empty hands/(and later)parkour down from 'e' to a side mouse button.
I started with black flag as my first game, so when I started playing AC1 I was confused, but then it clicked and it made a lot of sense, while I do not prefer one over the other I enjoy playing either form of control settings
I find it funny that people specifically hate those controls on KBM lol, controllers were way worse xD I'd much rather have them put a counterintuitive "LT to jump, RT + LT to free run" than having jumping on A/X and being unable to turn the camera in most situations. Especially now that I'm replaying all the games, finished with Ezio collection on ps a few days ago and that difference in controls in AC3 is practically immeasurable, I just love how easy it feels even with a controller to just run around and look cool and have full camera control on top of that
I really liked connor and was really immersed in his story personally, cutting people down with his tomohawk always felt cool af
I don't like enemy levels in the later games. I love Syndicate but the enemies are damage sponges. Plus it's a better power fantasy when Edward and Connor can solo armies when needed
My only issue is no jump and only one save leaving no replay ability.
I disagree, the more exaggerated and cool animations in Syndicate give a more power fantasy vibe to me
It's like a dialed up version of the arkham combat that the games were mimicking and I love it
I think the reason the story of Unity just suffered (besides the problems that break immersion like bugs) was because in the books, the main character is Elise ( note: her story wasnt gold like Edwards but it helps flesh her out atleast) but since rogue didnt do well perhaps they didnt think people were interested in playing as templars at all, so instead opted to write it from Arnos perspective but hes not given much to do in the books other than what you see in the games.
That can’t be it unity and rogue released the same day. So maybe ACU ´s story failed cuz Elise was the main character but the reason they chose not to center it on her isn’t rogue
Shay's relevance was dropped, the whole conflict of cooperating with templars vs antagonizing them to the bitter end kinda got speedran with the Belec issue, the romance sorta gets no resolution...the whole story of Unity felt like they had to rush it out the door like they had to with the gameplay.
And yeah, as the other guy said Unity and Rogue were released together to take advantage of next gen hype (because having a functional game wouldn't be better apparently?) so it ain't that issue.
@@natchu96 im aware of the whole next gen part as well yes as well as the other problems suffered by both Rogue's and Unity's development, i just figured id add some new useful information with it as another reason why the story wasnt good since they had nothing to work with, as thats a point ive never seen anyone make either
I don’t think Elise would have been the most compelling character to be during the time period. The French Revolution was very much a revolution led by men, and access/involvement to various events would have been hindered or forced.
@@chrismoore5333 Spoken like someone who clearly don't know wtf you're talking about and obviously never even read them. lmao
Ezio literally mentioned Altair's journal from The Secret Crusade novel that he read before he reached Constantinople.
Connor literally read Haytham's journal from Forsaken novel which was how he learned about his grandfather being an assassin.
Arno also mentioned to have read Elise's diary from the Unity novel in Dead Kings.
Bayek's backstory pretty much established in Desert Oath novel and led into the game's intro.
i don’t mind him liking or disliking my favorite assassins creed game im here to see what’s his opinions on them
I not agree with Unity. I think one of the problems with AC3 is that the story centers too much in the american revolution. Is a game about the revolution with an Assassin, not a game about an Assassin in the american revolution. That is one of the reasons Connor failed as a protagonist, he was not the important thing in the story, the revolution was.
Unity do that thing perfectly in my opinion, is the story of an assassin in the french revolution, the time period is relevant in the story but the game centers in Arno. Not liking the story is a completely valid opinion, but wanting that the story centered more in the revolution story for me is a mistake.
I really like Connor, his focused and serious personality fits the assassin theme way better, that's why he is one of my favorite characters besides Altair. Ezio is just overrated
Fair opinion😁
Ezio has the advantage of multiple games to develop him more fully as a character. I would’ve liked at least one more game with Connor to see him continue maturing and developing the Assassin order in America further.
Well about conner I don’t think it’s really fair to compare them to Ezio had a trilogy All to himself and about Connor not being as charming Connor lost his village and young age and was betrayed multiple times I don’t think he would be charming like Ezio and The only reason they made heyfrom likable what is the strengthen the message that there is no good guys
My comparison is based on going from one to the other. It's the only character I can compare Connor too because he's the next up in the series. Ubisoft set the bar with Ezio very high and the next one after was underwhelming (IMO)
@@TheHiddenOne690 yes I can see why are you think that way but at same time it’s still a bit unfair
Connor is a far better character compared to ezio.
@@alexandruacatrinei1032 I mainly like him because he’s a unique compared to the other protagonists and for his character arc and many other reasons
@@Theagentofchaos-r5q there is a lot about him to like. Very underated. Unfortunately many people don't understand his character and tend to like more generic characters like ezio.
What I hated about Syndicate was how Evie was portrayed as being flawless. It would have been fine if we didn’t have to play missions where Evie has to “fix” the problems that arise from Jacob’s missions. It would be fine if she didn’t have those missions or if Jacob had his own missions where Evie’s focus on the mission caused her to get allies killed or captured and Jacob has to save them.
I just wanted more interaction between the twins that showed greater team work. I felt like their missions and characterizations were unbalanced and could have done so much more. The idea of assassin twins with their own strengths and weaknesses and own approaches to missions could have been cool. Jacob building a gang/assassin empire by taking out the London gangs and Evie missions focusing on stealthier missions where you infiltrate areas or retrieve information that benefit their new empire. Instead Jacob gets more of the missions and screen time and Evie barely gets much to do later in the game besides missions where she has to "fix" something Jacob did wrong.
Well, that's just down to the game's poor writing as a whole. Jacob is an idiot who acts before thinking things through, and Evie is hyperfixated on the piece of eden. With Jacob's actions causing mishaps due to lack of a replacement figure to handle the now vacant job Evie sets things right because she thinks ahead with those types of things and fixes the issues he causes easily because having a backup for the target is pretty normal for the assassin's by this point. Jacob simply wants to kill and "free" London and not care for the repercussions of his actions. Nor does he really accept them as his fault. Just so the twins can have some form of conflict between each other that gets resolved in seconds.
You're describing exactly how the game works though? Evie does get the lion's share of the stealth missions and on top of that they're absolutely not all just following Jacob around cleaning his messes up - a big story beat is quite literally her making him solve a problem he's created@@Pooky1991
She also wasn't portrayed as flawless at all and I don't know how you come away thinking that @OP
She's very obviously made out to be tooooo acquiescent to the Creed, too uptight and logic-orientated, too idealistic. All good qualities up to a point, so yeah she comes across as 'perfect', but the game isn't reaaaaally that subtle about being like "and man is she annoying and inflexible because of it".
I think the Dickens missions really highlight where the game is critiquing her character.
@@jackknowles5295 what are you talking about she literally gets missions where she has to fix the power vacuum that Jacob created when he killed his targets. That’s a fact, none of his missions are him doing the same is just irritating.
And you’re saying her flaw is that she’s too inflexible? Yeah that would matter if they actually cause significant problems like Jacob’s flaws did.
All I’m asking for is for her to have missions where she gets to fuck up as well. Only one I can think of is when she decided to save Greene and it’s IMMEDIATELY fixed afterwards
Nah I like that Evie’s missions are about cleaning up the mess Jacob left after doing all the things we would do without thinking about how it affects the greater story
I love revelations, I originally played it when bingeing all the games and I never thought it was too similar to the other games.
Happy to see players showing love for Origins as there was too much hate on it (in my country specially) but I loved it and would go for Platinum again if there was option
Where are you from?
I like Connor
Connor lost his mother. He has the right to not trust anyone.
And even if Charles Lee did not burn his village Lee treated Connor like trash, innocent child just playing games with his friends. Connor would be a better man if he didn't have Achilles around.
To me Achilles was the worst character
People dislike Connor because they had 3 games with Ezio so they loved him like he was a real person
Odyssey isn't even a assassin or hidden one game it's just spartan
So I don't get why it even exists
Kenway saga will always be my favorite
And I want yo say your making great videos
Hot take: Origins was one of the worst ac games imo cause the combat was shit if u wanted to complete the story u needed to be a certain level the only thing that carried it was its story.
😢
I still think the gang territories in AC: Syndicate are fun to play. I still do them whenever I play the game.
My biggest problem with Odyssey and Valhalla, is that they have "Assassin's Creed" in the name.
How do you make a game called "Origins" and a year later release a game that predates "Origins" by 400 years?
Or release an "Assassin's Creed" where the not-so-hidden blade is just given away freely to someone who simply refuses to join the Hidden Ones
For me in Origins the level scaling is so bad! Like you have to get to level 10 just to meet Aya in Alexandria and also side missions give a lot less exp so you have to waste hours just to get on a certain level.
I kinda suprise about your take on Syndicate, yeah i see all your point, but for some reason I focus on take over all london first before actually progress in the main story. So maybe I like that system more
I really liked odyssey. It was the fourth AC game I ever played.
tbh i didnt have difficulties playing ac2 on pc, you just had to play with the camera a bit to jump where you wanted
I think you couldn't have historical figures like Leonardo da Vinci, Niccolo Machiavelli or Bartolomeo d'Alviano in Revelations because of historical accuracy. That leaves Claudia, La Volpe and Ezio's mom. As for Claudia, she's at least mentioned. And Volpe and Ezio's mom would've been quite old at that point in time, so they're probably dead
Ezio’s mom did die I think either the year or before Cesare’s Death
ac odecy is my fav ac game and you can not change my mine call me a greek myth nerd or what, it's the best of the rpg trio.
At some point, it would be dope to see a list ranking Assassins from the books and comics!
Haytham may not have his own game but he has his own book and it is splendid.
I mean rogue was developed right as Assassin Creed Unity date release came out so it was made in like a week
I felt the same way. Youd chase cesare one mission then all the sudden itll be 5 years later. Like wtf?!
The only problem with ac 1 is u can't swim but this game was ahead of its time
The swordplay wasn't to bad and had some great assassination animations for its time.
Unity. Best stealth. Best game imo
Assassin's Creed: I didn't like the parkour mechanics and lack of subtitles. There's not much to nitpick because the story was good.
Assassin's Creed Ezio Trilogy: I didn't like how evil the Templars were. The first game made you think and it wasn't so black and white about who the good guys and bad guys are. It's a no brainer that the Assassins were the heroes while the Templars no longer had redeeming qualities. They tried with Ahmed but he was still a piece of shit behind a smile.
Assassin's Creed 3: I would say that i didn't like the lack of Assassins in the game. I get that they were wiped out by the Templars earlier but by the end of the game i wish you could've recruited more than just 6 people so they would have more of a presence in the game. I loved the Assassin recruit missions and building them up though.
Black Flag: I didn't like the first person in the modern day parts and i didn't like how Edward already has the skills of a Master Assassin with no explanation. It kinda diminishes the training all the previous Assassins had to go through if Edward learned it all through piracy.
Rogue: Same thing with the Ezio trilogy. I didn't like how the Assassins were written to be terrorists who went against their own creed to justify Shay joining the Templars. They could've came up with a better reason for him to switch sides rather than demonizing the Assassins and writing Achilles out of character. Also, the Assassins were way too easy to beat. It should've been more of a challenge since we're hunting them for the first time.
Unity: Too long, Boring, none of the characters had depth or development, villain was lame and forgettable except Bellec. It was hard to relate to Arno eveb though i tried.
Syndicate: You didn't feel like an Assassin playing as Jacob but felt like one with Evie but i guess that's the point because of the characters personalities. It was ok. Could've been better. 🤷
Origins: Didn't like how you couldn't play as Aya even though it's her revenge story too since her and Bayek both lost their son. Her story could've been interesting since she's Amunet.
Odyssey: Too much Isu not enough Assassin's Creed. The Isu being a mystery worked for the franchise. Unraveling the mystery ruins it in a way.
Valhalla: Same problem as Odyssey. Too much Isu, not enough Assassin's Creed. They threw in the Hidden Ones and Order of Ancients and the Hidden Blade to remind you of the franchise but it wasn't enough. Too much god stuff to where i felt like i was playing either the Witcher or RPG with superpowers.
Mirage: I didn't care too much about Basim in Valhalla. Why they decided to give him a game i have no idea. Especially since he's basically Loki and will stab the Assassins in the back in the modern day. I look forward to seeing what they'll do but i have some doubts. Going back to it's roots shouldn't be a selling point.
Damn some some good points you make
@@hakangokhan9434 I didn't. I said I didn't care too much about Basim in Valhalla and that I look forward to seeing what they do.
I honestly dont care about going back to the roots if i get to move like basim did in valhalla they got my money
Ac1: slow climbing
Ac2 : kinda long
Ac Brotherhood : stuck in 1 city
(Didn't play rev)
Ac3 : the combat sometimes is just so tedious and slow and you can't do shit to certain enemies
Ac4 : The naval combat missions are hard af
(Didn't play rouge)
Ac Unity : cant dodge bullets
Ac Syndicate : slow combat+ not enough side content
Ac Origins : the fact that you can't defeat certain enemies if you're in a low level
Ac Odyssey : almost everything but mainly the amount of grinding you need to do and how long it is like it took me 3 or 4 hours to get to level 12 in Origins and to get to level 12 in Odessey I grinded for 8 hours through random encounters with enemies 3 levels above me that took me an hour and a half to beat and the side missions that are just plain boring
(Didn't play Valhalla)
Syndicate has a lot of content the only issue is all of it is in the dlcs😔
@@DiademAce bruh so true
1) Ubisoft
2) ...wait, what, you thought there was going to be a second entry to this list?
I was looking for the "Read More" part but there wasn't one 😭
Wait, what's wrong with AC2 control on pc? The right mouse button for running pretty much the perfect placement because you can both control the camera and run at the same time
jacob is the best because he is autistic like me
Hot take but imo only reason Ezio is as loved and most people’s favourite assassin is cause he has 3 games and we saw him develop throughout his entire life don’t get me wrong I still love him but give any other assassin ( especially Arno or Connor) a trilogy where we can see their development and they’d be just as iconic and popular if not more
more games = more connection, if edward had a trilogy he'd be my favorite because im pretty sure after 3 games we'd know so much more about him and connect more
@@TheHiddenOne690 exactly my point yeah there’s definitely better characters that aren’t as appreciated because we don’t get as much time with them, an Edward trilogy would be amazing same as a connor trilogy to really flesh his character out and watch him rebuild the colonial brotherhood, can only hope maybe one day we’ll get sequels for some very deserving assassins 🤞
For unity my problem with it would be how buggy and uncontrollable the parkour feels at times. It has the best looking parkour but probably not one of the best controls for the parkour.
i'm not asking you to "git gud" but the parkour in the game can actually be really smooth IF you are good at it
believe me, i absolutely despised the parkour when i first played the game and i thought it was buggy and unresponsive
after a few hours in the game i got used to the controls and liked the parkour very much
@@Sh0ckVthat's nonsense. Even best youtubers who are great at Unity keep pointing out that the parkour in it is broken and they found loopholes to make it work like 30% of time.
@@brucesnow7125 nah
AC1 was good, but the Ezio collection was PERFECT. And I felt AC3 was also a lovely game with Connor being a Badass Main Character (not so likeable as Ezio but still my most fav character). I felt the Combat and features leveling up in AC3 from its predecessors. And Black Flag being one of the best AC game out there. It was the last game I felt being a COMPLETE Assassins game. Ig since Unity and Rogue came out together, Ubisoft focused mostly on Unity for the next gen console (PS4 and all) than Rogue and just went and used everything from Black Flag and kind of... rushed it. But still, its a very underrated game imo. Rogue sure feels like a DLC but is a great game too. Unity's Parkour and Graphics were some of the best in the whole series but Arno as a character was ...not so cool. AC Syndicate was a nice, balanced game but had a lot of flaws than strengths and I always have a sour feeling about it. Lack of connection to the main line games and less parkour option than the previous, Unity, gave a little off vibe but is still a very good game. AC Origins was kind of a SOFT REBBOT to the series, and I dont mind at all. It was a great game with stunning gameplay and feel with a immerse story. (Haven't played Odyssey and Valhalla and I think... I am not even going to, but surely will check out Mirage!)
In Syndicate I didnt really mind the Gang territiries mission, only the Damn Kidnapping Missions.
I actually thought that Arno's relationship with Elise was the only believable thing in the story. Everything else was really forgettable with no memorable characters other than maybe Bellec and Napoleon. And both were severely underutilized with barely any screen time.
Idc what anyone says, unity was a top 3 ac game especially for the time it came out
I have to disagree with unity respectfully, I absolutely loved the story and was a huge reason why I fell in love with the game. I also really liked connor
hope ubisoft watching this video .
don't bet on it man
I disagree with a few of those tales but that’s not to say you’re wrong about the things you said. Like I really loved rogue but that doesn’t mean it isn’t indeed black flag 1.5
I do not understand the AC2 bad controlls. Honestly Ezio trilogy felt the most finished in terms of "I want to go there and character does what i ask him to do". Right mouse button for sprint is weird, but it was like that since AC1 and AC2 did not reinvent the wheel in here. What i hate about it is aiming of the gun or knives. I can understand why ezio stops, but using this weird animus laser and it automatically locking on target is meh.
I feel like I’m the only person alive who loved syndicate, it’s in my top three favourites (I’ve played basically all of the games)
Assassins creed 3/4.
AC3/4 was okay, but to me the cons are not what all the peasants complained about. I love the Mohican Native tribe, I love the British ,I love the fact that you start as Hatham, a freemason (In this game ''templar'' means freemason/illuminati) and I adore when AC shows the '' universal enemy'' that the propaganda of today wants you to see as the ''bad guys '' (British/Crusaders) as not actually so bad and perhaps the ''good guys'' from a different perspective. I loved that I could kill more Yanks in this game than the British ,although I wish your choices would reflect on what side you choose to ally with and not automatically end up working for the yanks.
If your actions had a more profound effect and you ended up supporting the British in the end, the game would be 100 times better. But I digress, this is not the worst part of the game for me.
I don't care 1 bit about the story outside of history/the animus, I just want the historical content. My favorite ACs are 1,Origins,2,Brotherhood and Unity. Revelations' setting of Constantinople was superb, but the half arsed npc design ( copy and paste potato face) really placed that game on the back burner for me.
Medieval, in cities that are policed by soldiers , guards and police forces , shows exactly why stealth and assassins were a reality/necessity. Those settings are superb. But to be in an open world with sprawling fields ,fighting against armies with rifles/muskets is what makes the game/setting dim-witted and non enjoyable to me.
There is no need for stealth when you fight mostly in fields and in reality, if you come up against a professional army of line infantry , you will be mowed down by a volley of musket fire within 10 seconds of an engagement.
That is why I don't care for this ASSASSINS creed.
AC 3 and Black flag doesn't feel one bit like assassins creed games...and that is not a bad thing.
connor always had a special place to me, he's the first native protagonist I'd ever seen(can't really think of very many others tbh)
For me Syndicate was the hardest to get through. I liked Evie’s character arc and the grapple system, and the WW1 expansion but that’s about it. It was just very boring to me for some reason. I might give it another go, but ya. Unity, while its parkour was indeed pretty awesome was also a let down. The side missions were overly difficult to get full sync on. Of course that maybe because I had to play them alone. For some reason I also just found myself not liking the story. I can’t pinpoint why. It just wasn’t my cup of tea. I’m totally with you on Origins being the best and wishing that I could play as Aya/Amunet
I’m a massive Viking fan so Valhalla was an amazing game for me it did feel more dull compared to the others but I loved the game
I feel like them letting you play as Haytham and then Conner is to show you the stark contrast between them, we see why conner goes from a happy kid to a reserved adult, trauma, his village is burned down, mother killed, and all by the group his father is with. Now this is all my speculation as Conner is my 2nd favorite assassin right after my boy Edward
The worst part about Odyssey is that it unfortunately had “Assassins Creed”next to it
If the title of that was removed,then we had a rather interesting Greek/Roman setting of a cool game that actually was unique in a way
But because it had Assassins creed next to it,it was then compared to the AC games,therefore it was framed as being driven and nothing like AC when I believe it really wasn’t their intention to make an AC styled game
The thing that people need to understand is the reason why Connor kenway is the way that he is because, let's be real, could YOU really still be lively and energetic and happy after seeing your home village being destroyed and seeing your mother died infront of your eyes and being betrayed by your allies like Connor was with the patriot!? Honestly, I would be like Connor. If I had to go through what he went through, I'm going really sick and tired of people complaining that Connor has no life or character to him!
4:50 Min.: Ask of Tasted. In my Eyes in the Pike of this Games Syndicate if its cames to a good AC but also Blackflag and 3 love i.
In the moment i played my frist run form AC Odyessey and i must say as a AC Game saw cames the Stealth Game play to short.
I try my best to play it stealthy like the games befor but if you try this you see that the game isnt made to be played in stealth.
If you just go full rambo its goes much more easy.
So if you see Odessey as a RPG and NOT as a AC then its a realy great Game but its a bad AC.
If i have to ranket them in the moment and i dont have saw the end of Odyessey i would ranket them in the follow way (Explains follows):
15. Mirage
14. Vahalla
13. AC1
12. Freedom Cry
11. Liberations
10. Rogue
9. AC2
8. Orgins
7. Unity
6. Brotherhood
5. AC3
4. Revalations
3. Black Flag
2. Odyessey
1. Syndicate
To the Resoning:
15. I cant Judge because i havent played it yet but i will in future
14. Same goes like it was by 15. ^^
13. To many issues that arent fixed. And a Story there the Missions are to repetitive. To less invoations.
Its Starts all yes but this protect it not form my logical and hard judgement.
12. Machete is a lot of fun. But you feel hard that its a dlc of blackflag.
11. Same goes for here. But the Gameplay as a fine lady and to be seductive and trick the mens to get your way was insane mich fun and that you have a umbrella gun let me feel like a little kid as i play with umbrellas like i have once let me feel good and i want a hole ac main game with this gameplay :D huge fun. Sadly that its last so short. :/
10. Nice intersting story. Good game but not so good as what cames. ^^
9. Much better then the Game befor. They learned form there past misstakes and this feel you.
8. Great game but the Stealth cames me to short. If you would saw it as a rpg its higher at the list but so i only can ranket it there. And i dont like how aya and bayak end up. I was hoped for a hearth warming happy ending for them :<
7. Why elise! Why arent you hear to him :< im so sad that arno dont got the happy end.
6. AC2 in insanely better ^^
5. The Hunting and the Gameplay realy good ^^
4. Pike Ezio Gameplay ^^
3. I love Pirates
2. Too good Game to rank it lower. I have play until short befor i saw the Kings of Sparta so i cant final judge.
1. Unity in much better and perfect plot. And you feel like kim possible ^^
Currently playing Odyssey, I like it but I hate how boring the repetitive the side quests are and how MANY there are. Oh my god can I please have something different to do other than "Give me money" or "Go to a small camp and kill some bandits" They're all the same! I never liked the naval battles in the RPG games either, Black Flag perfected it and it made more logical sense since they had cannons, In the RPG thing it just looks so stupid seeing your crew aim arrows in perfect sync and take down another ship, sorry but that's just retarded lol
People may hate Valhalla but at least the side missions were all actually unique. If My Playstation didn't take a shit and die during my playthrough of Valhalla I would have definitely ranked it as one of my top 5 ass creed games. I never played through the whole story but I spent over 200 hours on the game just exploring the amazing and huge world.
I also never liked in Syndicate (A personal favourite of mine) how forced and contrived the relationship between Henry and Evie was. Henry just seemed like a creep. It's worse in the Oliver Bowden book where Evie wets her knickers and acts like a giggly schoolgirl every time Henry is mentioned.
I feel the absence of familiar faces in Revelations works in the plot's favor. His sister and Machiavelli are the only ones within the Brotherhood that we know for a fact are still around, and even Leonardo was historically living in France at this point. It really underlines how solitary Ezio feels, having been walking the path of an Assassin for so long that there's not really anyone left but him. It makes his ultimate decision to retire even more understandable.
the main stuff i hate about odyssey is the non linear story, i completed the odyssey quests , but didnt even complete the kosmos cult and the atlantis key, its way too long, half the map is unexplored even after completing kassandra/alexios storyline, i stopped there and watched youtube endings of the main story to find out kassandra becomes immortal and lived till the present and she sets out to explore the world, to be honest the kassandras storyline was actually great, the freedom to choose the ending was innovative, and theres too many suspenses and twist as well, but being non linear and this long makes me hate it , i ve put in 45 hours just to reach the lvl 43 and end the game at family reunion
actually, you only get into open combat in Syndicate if you're inexperienced at the game. I went into it, and at hour 10 and I was already shadow killing enemies like a pro, and that's actually the way the game should be played. Open combat is only for rookie.
I never understand this common opinion about connor being boring just because is not an identical copy of ezio; for me it was perfect that he was so different, and the fact that he's nor "charming" doesn't mean autonatically that he's boring; he's young, he's angry, he's unexperienced but he has an iron will, which makes it perfect to face villains that, for the first time in the series, are not all evil assholes but complex political figures that each time put his ideals in doubt
One thing i hate about ac3 is the pacing you star as a haytham in sequence 1-4 wich i dont minde but them in sequence 5 you play hide and seek as child connor then hunt as a teen ,leave you village to go to ackilles, then trained .you get it! You get to assassin connor in sequence 8! And they are 12 sequence! We get to the assassin vs templar conflict so late . Ubisoft should of make a game for haytham and a game for connor because we get never ending tutorial in ac3!
I have played AC, AC2, Syndicate and Origins and I really enjoyed how the franchise evolved. About syndicate, I partly understand your comment about repetitive gang missions, however seeing your gameplay, I get why. As for me, taking over the boroughs was quite brilliant as I would enjoy stalking the target from roof tops and use the hallucinogen darts and thin the herd. IT was fun for me.
On origins, its surprising many like Aya, but to me she was responsible for the change that Bayek had to go through and I dislike her for that. The VA who delivered the last dialogue for bayek during the last vanilla mission, the pain for the loss of his son, and the dissolution of his family, it was so heart breaking. But Aya was just meh.
I highly disagree that Assassin's Creed 1 needs different Sidemissions since you are 100% an Assassin sincenearly birth and not like Ezio, a child of a italian banker family, or like Ezio a pirate.
That's why AC1 is a true AC game. all other are less and less in each new game.
would be the same if you add unnecessary sidecontent to Splinter Cell, Hitman or Ghost Recon or such...
1 is still my favorite so far. (Only played 1, 2, Black Flag and Origins)
Yeah its repetitive, but at least its short (Unless you go for the flags) and the combat felt the best out of those i played.
My list:
1. Odyssey (I know people will hate it for not being the traditional AC game, but I enjoyed the setting, the story and the combat)
2. AC 2 (Ezio, that’s all I have to say)
3. AC Origins (Great setting, lackluster beginning of the brotherhood, and wrong protagonist, yet Bayek is an ok protagonist and the combat was good)
4. AC brotherhood (AC 2 on steroids, but a little short)
5. AC Black Flag (didn’t connect much with it, but at the time naval combat was very cool)
6. AC Unity (Amazing setting, beautiful graphics and movement, but boring plot?
7. AC 3 (I love the game, but I can see the pacing problems it has and as much a I like American history, the game butchers it and Connor is just too dull)
8. AC Syndicate (boring, more of the same)
9. AC 1 (Ok, I started with AC 2 and don’t care much for the story of AC 1 or it’s characters, maybe a remake can change my mind, we can all say that the game that basically introduced us to AC deserves merit, but the game isn’t particularly fun to play).
10. AC revelations (I was super interested in this game, but the story was dull, feels like more of the same, the only positive is Ezio)
11. AC rogue (never peaked my interest)
12. AC Valhalla (boring, too long, uninteresting characters, nonsense with Norse myth, horrible pacing, just a game to suffer on and on, the game has some moments of brilliance, but not much)
Heres is my list.
AC 1: The repeatabillity of the main story.
AC 2: The random difficulty spike at the end
AC Broterhood: The apple sequence in chapter 8
AC Revalation: The really unfocussed storylines and the bad merging of them
AC 3 The main story
AC 4 Black flag: Tailing mission
AC Rouge Lack of memorable characters
AC unity: Awful phasing
AC syndicate: Content to repeated
AC Origins: Bad sidequest
AC Oddysey: Lack of narative impacts
Did not play AC valhalla
I give Connor's personality a pass. I don't claim to know how social interactions worked with his particular culture but we have to remember he was a Native who (like all of them) got caught up in a white man's war. He's half-white but wasn't raised that way. Then there's the fact his mother died in front of him when his village was burned. That's enough to shut down any jovialness he had growing up. He seemed more world-weary than anything. Throw him into the Assassin-Templar conflict and it doesn't make it any easier.
AC3 was truly an outsider story and I commend Ubisoft for choosing a Native as the core Assassin. It helps paint a more complete picture of the Revolution and serves to remind us that it was a terrible war for everyone, despite the reasons why it was fought. I'm fond of saying that if American history buffs were made uncomfortable by AC3, that's a good thing. We shouldn't forget how the First Nations suffered in that time.
1. Boring Abstergo segments.
2. No mission replay.
B. Full sync trash.
Rev. Bombs are superfluous.
3. No more passive income
4. Epic ship fights
R. Animus fragments
U. Streaming software hates it
S. Too cheery male lead
Origins - No amount of overleveling can make you feel overpowered
I like AC Origins, but it’s pretty easy to find flaws. The beginning was really jarring and poorly executed, and several Order of the Ancients members were bland (I basically only remember the Scarab and Crocodile missions).The main antagonist was also really forgettable, making the ending feel muddled and unsatisfying. And they did Cleopatra dirty. To be honest, Bayek and the setting itself carried the game for me pretty hard.
I disliked the entire AC Odyssey... The boss fights were great, but shit story and shit characters...
But I actually loved Ac Valhalla, the brought back the Sage concept and also the modern day and isu story finally progressed,it was really a great game with a good story, the Viking experience was good too, my only complaint is that at the end Eivor didn't become an Hidden one, still it's my 3rd favourite AC game....
My ranking goes like this -
1. AC Ezio trilogy 😅
2. AC Origins
3. AC Valhalla
Man... i thought i'm the only one thinking right mouse for running is stupid in AC 2
My personal list: AC 1: Combat and repetitiveness
AC2: Combat
Brotherhood: Slower parkour, Rome was a downgrade from previous cities and a mediocre ending with conveniences in the plot throughout the game and Cesare was terrible as a villain.
Revelations: No Assassin Contracts and basically Brotherhood but with better story but less content.
AC3: Parkour has more realistic animations but it's very automatic.
Black Flag: Even worse parkour than 3 and tailing
Rogue: Idk worse maps.
Unity: Combat is buggy, the story is mid, some side content is ridiculous and parkour is inconsistent (still my favorite).
Origins: It's a fucking rpg, they took out the parkour and basically isn't an AC game besides the story
My List
Assassin's Creed - Repetitive Side Content
Assassin's Creed II - Combat Is Slow Even 1's combat was better
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood - Ending Too Rushed
Assassin's Creed Revelations - Wanted Level Keeps Increasing When Renovating
Assassin's Creed 3 - Starting Is Toooooooo Long
Assassin's Creed Liberation - Boring
Assassin's Creed IV Blackflag - No Land Wanted System For A Pirate
Assassin's Creed Rogue - Assassins were too easy to kill
Assassin's Creed Unity - Items are too expensive to purchase using in game currency
Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Cartoony finishers especially the multi combat finishers
Assassin's Creed Origins: Forced to level up by playing side quests to continue main story.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey - It's existence
Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Combat/Stealth sucks balls. Damn Origins and Odyssey's parkour is better than Valhalla
What I hate on Odyssey is thing that is in most of RPGs of this type, yet developers, not just Ubisoft, are STILL doing it.
And that is:
Do you know the situation when you find some LEGENDARY weapon, with great stats, and usefulness and even *special* ability...
ONLY to throw it away in like 5 minutes, because those stats don't matter, some random shit common weapon is better because it has bigger level.
Honestly there is no assassins creed game that is perfect. Generally the franchise is a total travesty and it has an incredibly repetitive gameplay. And yet we learned how to fall for this year by year.
I think its time for some new devs to come to ubisoft. Either young motivated talents or ones that worked for years in bigger studios, studios that put passion in their games.
Its crazy to think that this games have so much potential to get recognised by more people but I admit it is challenging with such a closed concept.
Its also really hard to back up the hype with the trailers they make. Ubisoft might be a cruel company recently but their trailers are the highest quality my eyes have ever seen when it come to cinematography.
Valhalla was by far too long with too many needless “missions”
Barely 1/4 of the way through I found myself button jamming to skip the long drawn out conversations.
Halfway through I started skipping the story cinematics that didn’t involve Sigurd or Basim.
Assassin's Creed 1 issue: no subtitles
Assassin's Creed 2 issue: those damn feathers
Assassin's Creed BH issue: Lucys fate
Assassin's Creed R issue: Them first person bridge building and stutters.
Assassin's Creed 3 issue: Connor was unnecessary and they ruines Desmond story killing him off in a game that should have been focusing on the present.
What?! I love Syndicate. I didn't realize Syndicate was overhated. And I cannot agree more about Vahalla. It was so goddamn boring and the story was a drag. Vahalla felt so foreign to me and felt like an actual Vikings game that I don't care about. If Vahalla didn't have the Assasin's Creed name, I wouldn't have bought it.
The things I didn't like about each game
Ac1: losing all your skills even though it makes no sense
Ac2:mission replay not existing
Brotherhood: the bank system
Rev: mini games
Ac3: hunting animals or not harvesting them causes desync
Ac4: legendary ships were annoying
Rogue:felt to similar
OG:spongy enemies and level gating
OD:spongey enemies level gating
Val: far too long and boring
