Perhaps you should do a video on what you think the franchise could have been, sometime.
This makes me feel old, class game
15 years? Damn how time flies. I'm glad that I still continue to play the series to this day. I understand all the criticism though. Personally I just play for the historic setting nowadays.
“Maybe, but I was deranged anyway” is basically a summary of my whole life. Thanks Fizhy.
great video and i 100% agree. even though later games built upon this and improved everything from the storytelling, character development, structure, variety, and general gameplay, i will always have such a profound appreciation and indelible reverence for this game. imperfections and all.
Like and share fizhy for keeping this gem alive
God damn this video is so well fucking made. A classic fizhy talking about a classic game, with a classic style when it comes to the video structure. I know the company sucks D fizhy, but we cannot ignore the fact that they were an essential gem to our childhood, just like kratos, spider man ps1, etc.
Keep it up homie 🔥🔥
I agree for the most part but i do like the narratives of the newer games, just sucks that there is so much filler in between that by the time you get to a new "main" mission, you can't remember what you were doing, but after refreshing my memory afterward, i was like "oh yea i remember that! this makes sense" they just need to make these maybe 35-40hr games tops, and then after beating the game, you unlock the side filler stuff for fun times and typical sandbox fun
35-40hrs is still quite long. That's longer than any AC game except for odyssey and valhalla. Just for comparison: The entire ezio trilogy takes about 45 hours to beat.
AC origins the “bloated RPG” is better than the vast majority of AC games
11:09 i did that too killing guards on top of assassin hideout.. then it opens & they fall down
the divorce part and the brutal slide tackles is scaringly relatable 😂
I bought a 360 at launch just to be ready for Assassin's Creed, which didn't end up releasing until a year later. In the meantime I had downloaded all AC trailers and demos and watched them continuously during that time. I'll never forget my first playthrough, the weight of the character, the narrative's approach to history and philosophy within a sci-fi story. Not a perfect game but a special one whose most interesting aspects never truly lived up to their potential.
So true. That's what hurts the most about Assassins Creed nowadays. Lost potential.
A masterful piece of content sir, a game loved by all who are aware of fundamental values is a game with a valid fan base. Those who love AC 1 will continue to love it, and certainly for me it holds a special place in my heart.
It's always interesting to hear people open up about their personal life, and how games figured into it.
For some, games carried them through a rough patch in their lives. For some, a game struck them like a lightning bolt, and made an indellible impression they'll carry with them for a lifetime (i.e. like AC1 did for Fizhy).
Games absolutely can inspire, uplift, and encourage. They are, in every sense of the word, an art form. Never let anyone say different.
100 % agree.
I played the full series for the first time, from the start from beginning to to Valhalla and it has become one of my favorite franchises ever
Assassin's Creed was one of the first combat games I ever played. Never looked back since those good old days of AC2 on PS3 back in early 2017 before I got my PS4 that summer. Made my childhood and my teens. Gave me some important life lessons about life itself, taught me more about how to show my love for women in a better way (thanks to Ezio), and having a reason to stand up and fight. Just pure nostalgia these days, though I'll still play the new AC games. Still, shocking that it's been 15 years of AC in our lives 🔥🔝
Nice you pointed the gameplay changing focus over the years. People saying Unity's parkour is the best because it looks cool and realistic, it's hard to believe they even played it.
Unity’s gameplay is based in its aesthetics, it’s far from a bad system but it’s not precise enough to challenge the original parkour system. Even 3 & Black Flag whilst not flashy were animation based. The original 4 games’ parkour is the only system that provides player freedom really. Unity’s can be used to do some cool shit but it’s still somewhat imprecise.
I'm quite hopeful about Mirage -- one more game that's true to the identity of the franchise could still be quite good IMO. Regardless, great video!
I’ll wait to gameplay first. Everything I’m hearing sounds good but we need to see it in action before we can judge
Ac Valhalla really damaged the series. I think it is the worst ac game.
i honestly loved how altaïr gained more and more gear on his robes as he climbed the ranks, it gave me a good sense of progression and another motive besides beating the game to finish the story; to drip him the hell out
a Whitelight, founded scarab and fizhy assassin's creed 1 hour long video in the same week, im dead
What is Whitelights AC1 video called? I can't find it.
@@cjware316 its called "the heights of assassins creed", its not really an ac 1 video, but he talks about its parkour system for half of the video
I disagree with letting it die.
If Mirage is truly a return to form and is successful, then I believe they will return to that style.
After Mirage, we need a Remaster or Remake of the first game(since it never got re-released like The Ezio Trilogy, 3, Liberty, Blackflag, and Rouge).
Then, they can hopefully be fully back on track for what the fans of the earlier games actually want.
For me, the last AC game that I liked was Syndicate because it still held onto and respected its roots while being different(it wasn't as good as Blackflag, and the games before it, but it wasn't nearly as bad as Unity, or the newer games).
I know that you don’t make video essays/long form videos on this channel due to them requiring too much work (scripting, recording and obviously editing) but you did great on this one.
I need to play this game again soon
Every Assassin's Creed fan:
Frame on 0:03
Lol
The game's Exposition in the beginning is so bad hahaha "well random assassin, as you already know, we follow three simple rules. we live by these rules, they shape our every action, as you are aware because you are also an assassin and have been living as one for forever, let me explain them to you in great detail!"
*Must use old man voice*
Back in my day my assassins creed was an actual assassination game.
None of this RPG combat focused hoopla. You darn kids don't know what an assassin is.
I was 24 when this came out then....fuuuuck! Didn't realise how fucking old I was!
In a lot of way, it's still my favourite AC game, best setting in the middle ages, in the middle east, and I do think the certain graphics & sound effects haven't been bettered.
Just the odd bit of jankiness with the controls, unable to swim but collect flags from poles in water, it's superb
This guy really thinks there is no narrative in the newest games FML . The story has been the core and glue thats held and meshed the series together xD id even say it has always been the most important factor. But so
Many ac fans couldnt even stand desmond , which says a lot
An amazing video
31:22 I HAVE TO DISAGREE I FOUND EVERY FLAG IN 1 EVERY FEATHER IN 2 and 100% EVERY GAME 1-Syndicate. I ONLY HAVE MINOR DRAIN BRAMAGE
I've been replaying the Assassin's Creed games and it's a very mixed experience.
I love this game. I played it again last year. It was a proper skill countering with the hidden blade in this game. I'm only problem this game it's to repetitive. The story was excellent along with the music. It all starts going wrong after brotherhood for me.
Assassins creed- assassins creed syndicate not bad. Syndicate is the first one in the series i have ywt to play all the way through. What i mean was that it was the beginning of me not finishing assassins creed games. I played origins and HATE it with a passion. I have not played anything after origins yet, however i have oddessy and val halla is on game pass and i have it installed to check out soon.
That's why I always tell people. I'd rather a franchise die off and just continue enjoying the old games than to have it become a shell of it's former glory and end up disliking the series and watching it be used as a money printing press. Goes for pretty much any art.
Hard disagree on gameplay. AC1 has always had crap gameplay. I can manage to play AC2 onwards but AC1 has always been stiff and boring and painful to play.
skill issue
Ac1 is awesome💙💟💙 and sorry about what's happening to the series and mirage could be that game and sad to see upset but if that's opinion not really assassins creed anymore
It’s safe to say that AC1 is what solidified my modern gaming obsession. I remember being in awe of how smooth Altair moved and how awesome the combat was. It definitely had its shortcomings but it’s a masterpiece in my eyes for what it represents.
Thanks for speaking facts and truth. So many ignorant fools these days.
15 years, story has barely progressed in any meaningful way since first 3
Ha yeah...
Id say that AC has pretty much abandoned any over arching story. Even if there is one, its barely recognizable. I cannot tell you how Layla's story connects through each game. She's in a totally different area with different characters each time.
However, this doesn't mean that the individual stories have not been meaningful. AC1-Black Flag are the best imo, but I thought Odyssey had a good story too when it came to the main quest and DLCs. Valhalla's story was ok and a little interesting, but way too bloated
I remember when i was really younge and my dad got assassin's creed 2, i was watching him and i fell in love with it and i didnt play the first one till he got revelations, it came with it and i have loved mostly everyone of those games..... its was allll my dads fault 😂
This game was rushed a little bit rushed because he was meant to make a Prince of time ending became assassin's creed, I think it is great but slightly rushed but I am not bothered
Assassins creed series driver series max Payne series 🤌🤌🤌
The only main Assassin's Creed game I've never finished.
You can play the game start to finish in 6 hours, it's not too bad for rushing through nor is it too bad for taking your time with. I'd recommend getting through it sometime.
Why? It’s really short
You have a bearrrrrrrrr 🐻 a dearrrrrr that doesn't click
Ti ti ti ♥️
_”Now that it’s fifteen years old…”_
The combat here was perfect, you weren’t a god with no challenge (although in the games reality, Altair kind of was) and not a twig who could break from a single hit; the combat can be based around your skill, for if you just counter, eventually the Knights will break your guard and half your health, but if you can take the offense, you can take guards out with ease. it doesn’t demand your mind to be clenched on not dying, and not able to kill guards with little challenge, it can be a genuinely fun time when you get the hang of it, but hey, not gonna tell you to play a certain way or your swine, offense and pure defense can work, as I just counter killed for years because of the satisfaction.
assassin creed truely deserved better...
how the hell did i never watch this before
I first played it on my old pc.. it was so bugged cause of my pc but i loved every moment of this game. Unfortunately the franchise is a mess now.
Same.
My poor Pentium 4 struggled a lot in these titles.
This makes me feel 15 years old XD
Oh, I remember how I got into this franchise. I was talking to a friend which console I should get, the ps3 or xbox 360. He just told me I definitely needed to play Assassin's Creed in any case. Once I finally got it, we only talked about this game. Any time we'd pass an old building, church or so, we'd talk about how we'd climb it. xD
I loved this game so much and was so excited for the second one. Even the third one, but that game was terribly buggy, which made me incredibly mad. Wouldn't be the last time that I'd get mad, though.
I appreciate your perspective on this game. I just finished it a couple days ago and didn’t really enjoy it, but your analysis made me rethink the game. I’d still say it’s my least favorite of the AC originals. But I think it’s much better than Origins, Odyssey, and ESPECIALLY Valhalla.
Depressing
I had the exact same expirience
Cannot wait for this! I know it’s gonna be good ❤
I agree with everything that you've said except for the score being not memorable. It is insanely memorable to imho, I know we all love second game's music and I understand the love for Elio's Family (though I don't like that they cheapened it by making it the theme of the franchise), the first game's soundtrack is sooo well Meade it's insane. Jesper Kid really looked into the Middle Eastern music and produced something so immaculate, I can never get enough of it.
Tbh I think I would have liked assassin's creed a lot more if there were no modern-day parts... lol
Still say 3 and black flag were my favorites... but I think it's cause 3 was my first assassin's creed a d black flag I played the most
I remember being a kid when this beauty came out I was hooked straight away … I’m 24 now and the series stopped being good a long time ago what a shame
Our story with this game is so similar. I had a PS2. But I'd go to my cousin's place where he had a PS3. When Assassin's Creed came out I happened to be at his place after he got it. I was blown away by how advanced it seemed. The graphics, gameplay and story were amazing. I was hooked.
At that age my favourite thing to do was start a rampage at the courtyard in Acre and just kill as many soldiers as I could.
I really miss good AC games. 1, II and it's sequels, and 4 were great. 3 was... less so. The new RPG ACs all suck.
I used to beat the shit out of people on a hockey game and I played Driver 2 on PS2 like crazy. Me and Fizhy had a similar childhood 😂😂😂
I got ac1 when I first got my ps3 every year til ac black flag I used to get the new games for my birthdays I’d open them in the morning and not take a break til I finished the story I honestly haven’t cared to play games like that since
It was my going away gift to college along with an XBox 360. Thanks, Mom!
great video!
I feel the love vor driv3er as well. Was my favorite game as a child (besides nfs nw)
Would you do a follow-up video on ACII (or the entire the Ezio Trilogy) as well?
Assasins creed 1 was the perfect place to save 75% on big name brands
Dude the way you explained how this game made you feel 😭 same
Team Forged Ember 🔥
How dare you make me feel this nostalgic
It’s Duncan from DA Origins
That was a quite a great video
This game is almost as old as me
15:50 lol what was that? 😂
My least favourite part of assassins creed was the immersion breaking animus stuff, I’d be having fun pretending to be some ancient assassin then I’d be in an office somewhere talking about how it was basically all a dream. Also I thought odyssey was the best of the assassin creed games, there’s no other Ancient Greece games that made me feel like I was in Ancient Greece
Hidden byaaaeede!
My love for the Assassin's Creed series began when I was introduced to Assassin's Creed Brotherhood back in 2010 I got it for Christmas of that year along with my first PlayStation 3 Assassin's Creed II and AC1. Ever since then I loved the old games including three and Black flag. I ignored Odyssey like the plague played origin strictly based on its setting because one of my passions is ancient Egypt and its history.
A part of me is hopeful that Mirage lives up to the return to its roots and that it is a good AC game but realistically I doubt it because Assassin's Creed has completely veered off from what it once was. And due to ubisoft's interest in microtransactions among other things I doubt we will ever see a true return to what originally made Assassin's Creed great in the first place
Thank you for this
"The Animus is effectively a simulation" brought physical and emotional pain upon my being.
Would adding the word 'glorified' help?
Mentioning glory's even worse 😭
@@reecenotryhs but it’s our former glory & we must fly into it
@@Fizhy ...Fuck, he's right
W
Fizhy do you play FIFA 23?
This man creates a beautifully articukated video on a masterpiece of a game and you tarnish my good man Eth with this unholy question🤨
Wish they would remaster Assassin's Creed 1
Assassins Creed 1-Blackflag will always shine bright in my memory.
My deepest wish in gaming is the redemption of this series and the restoration of the hard work and dedication that used to go into the development and very soul of the projects,the parts of the industry that makes the difference between just playing a video game and having a genuine experience...
Ac1 is boring and repetive its true
I agree with everthing you said in this video and I too miss the old assassins creed
Assassin's creed has lost it's identity and it's DEAD!
