      You adding the Smosh song was the perfect moment dude. That song is honestly a f**cking banger and if you play it side by side with the original trailer (the one where Conner runs into a f**cking army), I believe it lines up perfectly. Truely, a unique peak for both AC and Smosh... two things we will never see in their entirety ever again.

    Call him boring, I call him badass and driven. Connor has been a role-model in my life ever since I played the game when I was 10 years old. He may lack a sense of humour and complain a lot, but I always thought that was down to his traumatic upbringing. For most of his life, he's been responsible for an entire community. He has no time for jokes or fooling around. He expects nothing but high standards from others, but especially from himself, which is why he argues with people when they don’t meet his expectations. Anytime he receives a compliment, he always responds by saying something like, "I was just doing my part". He expects the most from himself, but always puts others first.

    I love the side content of this game. From building up the Homestead, to creating and managing trade routes for said homestead. It just feels so real and the side characters are so believable. From the goofy loggers who are always arguing. To the miner who falls in love with the hunter who saves his life. To the couple who used to be slaves trying desperately to have a child. Just love it so much. Sure it's not always the best but you get to see Conner interact with people who aren't a means to an end or his enemies. Which goes a long way to making him a better character.

    This game inadvertently saved my life. I had just gotten it on the 360, back when it released. Weekend finally hit, got out of school, played it the rest of the day. I was running around the homestead, doing some upgrades, ones I could at the early stages. I was going through some trees when I noticed black smoke pouring in through the top of my bedroom door in a trailer. Turns out my grandpa (who wasnt in the best shape at that time) had fell asleep cooking potato fries, and it caught half the kitchen on fire. I'm still convinced that if I wouldn't have been screwing around with the new parkour mechanics, I wouldve burned up in my sleep.

    Connors acting is a great example of how some fans have their complaints because they only look at it to the extent of face value. They then react that it is not what they wanted there for it is bad.
    To them it does not matter that those desires are not realistic for the character in question. Ironically many times the complaints would have been resolved if they had simply looked deeper and analyzed why the character is the way that he is or decided to make a particular decision.

      Unlike Altaïr and Ezio, Connor is facing the fact his culture, his heritage as a Mohawk, is dying due to overseas cultural invaders. The British coming and the mixing of cultures creating something new. This lends fire to his rage since his motivation to find Charles Lee is that he believes Lee responsible for the fire in his village and the death of his mother, seeing Washington as less of an ally after learning the truth. Connor can stop a sale of native land, but history tells us his battle is one he cannot win, which makes his cause all the more tragic for how right he is in it. Connor has to grow out of the black and white view he has at the start of his story, seeing the world and people in shades of grey which in turn make him more strategic in how he operates. There’s so much more to Connor than not being Ezio.
      Connor’s relationship with his father is also the first time the series used a father/son relationship to drive character interactions this much. Altaïr’s father was absent, and Giovanni was fridged to motivate Ezio’s initial bloodlust, but Haytham and his more nuanced view of the conflict are behind a couple of really interesting philosophical points made, and how they influence Connor. This echoed in the Modern Day, where a big part of Desmond’s story is reconciling with his estranged father and working out their rough history in between Animus sessions and power source heists.

  • @davidbeer5015
    @davidbeer5015 2 ปีที่แล้ว +50

    Bonus win on Connor's character, imo: Connor is often characterized by only wanting revenge for the burning of his mother and village. When learning that Washington may have been responsible (the years are.. a bit off for that as he waa supposedly retired by then), Connor chooses to act on the immediate threat, but also makes no move against Washington. He already knows the Templars want Washington gone, and he comes across as aware enough that attacking Washington would just play into their plans. Instead he just cuts ties and in the Benedict missions, stil shows some disdain, telling Washington he "reaps what he sows."

    I'm so glad to see a video of this game because it was always one of my favorite AC games growing up. I've always felt like I've been artificially moving it down my list of AC games because people around me kept saying they didn't like it, but I always liked Connor's character a lot. I always felt Connor's resolute stoicism at such a young age was a good contrast to the fiery bravado of the younger Ezio and it made Connor a character that was easier for me to understand earlier than I understood Ezio, though that may have something to do with the relentless march of time. The Homestead missions are, to this day, some of my favorite side quests in any game, as the stories they tell are satisfying, but the way the Homestead itself fills out as you complete the missions is an even more satisfying version of the Auditore mansion in AC2. The entire area becomes a home to you, and a community to everyone who moves there, and if you complete them as they come become available, even Achilles gets to appreciate some of the beautiful development of his land before his untimely death. I loved this game, and I'm glad to have some of the thoughts I've always had on it put in the forefront of some who so quickly write this game off.

    The fight between the Assassins and the Templars is, Yin and Yang. Its all about a universal cosmic balance so its never ending. AC3 is the first real time the player actually gets to understand the Templar viewpoint. Rather than just Assassins (good) Templar (bad). It explores the murky gray area as nothing is ever black and white, despite how much we want it to to. The modern day elements of AC3 are also great at expanding upon this as we see Desmond struggle to find his place. In the end we only only do what we believe to be right based off what we believe to be true.

    This is my favorite AC game and a few little fun side notes: Connor was conceived somewhat close to when Achilles' son died, the kid when see in the beginning that Haytham shushes actually ends up being one of Connor's assassins (Duncan Little), and lastly it's well shown that Lee was actually decently racist toward non white folk with him showing disdain towards the natives throughout the game making him actually the perfect antagonist for Connor to go against

    Ik I’m 3 months late but this game holds a special place in my heart because it actually helped me pass a history test I had to take in school. Literally played the game and knowing so many things while I was supposed to study helped me pass it.

    The ost (especially the theme) will always give me goosebumps. It floods me with inspiration and determination! It even gives me a sense of freedom, to appreciate what I have no matter how little it may seem. AC3 can be tedious, but I would give up so much to go back to play it when it was new and I was young. I may have to replay it sometime.

    @JohnPeacekeeper 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    One thing I do like is that this game goes back to showing that there's good guys and bad guys on both sides. This isn't at all a war of Good and Evil but rather about Chaos and Order.
    So glad they eventually touch on that more with Unity and Rogue too

    I gotta tell y'all how much I love your videos.
    There's so much overpowering criticism and cynicism on this site that it's nice to see someone making a channel entirely to celebrate the work and thought that goes into games. Even some games with more controversial receptions.
    This medium deserves more accolade and respect for how well thought out and artistically valuable some of these games can be.
    So thanks for doing what you do. It's appreciated and I hope to see your channel gains the attention it deserves.

    @castleoffiction96 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Best part of Connor is that if you just play the story and are desperate to get things done, he's an asshole in all those missions. But if you play side quests like Homestead, in those he's kind and charitable. In other words, whether Connor is a single-minded prick hinges entirely on whether you are. So, those of you who hated Connor really did that to yourself. HAH!

    Spent, too, much time just being off, in the woods, hunting and stalking shit. The running through the trees was probably my favorite bit of it. I did the homestead missions alongside the main story but cannot remember the details of every action or when/what I did first. I enjoyed having missions to do but when I realized I was creating a community of people who generally added to everyone elses overall experience Im sure I pushed for that as much as I could. It's a good game. I enjoy watching/listening to you fan boy over it.

    Had to replay this; ended up finding itself in my top 3 AC afterwards. So lowkey good.
    Also, i was always so confused by the epilogue missions in the game, but on a replay they illustrated something pretty important to Connor’s journey. It went on to describe the upcoming problems america would face, showing evidence that Haytham’s thinking was true to some extent. This topped off with Connor’s soliloquy that is cut from the game, really just perfectly wrapped the game with a bow for me.

  • @tobyk.8928

    Ac3 was actually my entry into the franchise. My parents surprised me with it for my birthday, and the opening explanation for the previous 4 games had me hooked instantly. I stayed up playing it all night and played through about half the game before I finally fell asleep. I still remember how my jaw dropped when they revealed that haytham was actually a Templar.

    Watching these is a great way for me to catch up on the story since to be honest I've never been interested in playing any of the games even back when 2 blew up but.. I just finished my very first ac today (valhalla) that I really enjoyed because I'm Norwegian and wanted a viking game, and most of the complaints I've seen have been about the AC aspects of the game that I don't really care about im looking forward to you talking about the good parts...
    But I agree with fans that is WAAAAAY to long and allot of the story repeats to many times.. I did have many laugh out loud moments with the smaller missons and world events.. Anyways can't wait for you to get to it..

    Im not sure if this was pointed out already but there was a time where Achilles said to Connor "in your haste to save the world, don't destroy it" or something between those lines which shows that Achilles learned from his experience with Shay and the precursor site. Where he rushed to a site at all costs and didn't heed Shay's warning.
