To take a page from Doctor Who: there are fixed points in time and there are those that are in flux. The Nodes and the Paths respectively. Desmond broke the 12-12-2012 Node, but now Time is trying to correct that. To place back Humanity's expiration date. Humans have to gain to sense of Time that was not even installed in them. Many have a bit of it thanks to interbreeding with Isu generations ago. The Eagle Vision. And humans are chaotic enough to be able to fight the Code. Also, did not know that Bayek could not hear the messages.
Fun fact: There is a Dr. Who reference under a lake. A sunken phone booth with legs sticking out. Search for it on here, I'm sure there's videos of it. :)
most ppl have no idea how much the big concepts from AC draw from real life: time, ancient advanced civilizations, worldwide disasters, secret societies, these concepts in a general sense are all real
Tyler why do you always fuck with my mind ??? I mean seriously, you are a genius for being able to think of this & it all makes sense & is most likely the story we are going to be following in the coming games, great Video buddy & welcome back :D
*Spoiler: I'm here after the modern day ending of Ac Valhalla, and I'm just amazed by how spot on Tynamite's analysis is. In the ending of valhalla, we see Layla join desmond as they both are finally able to read time and read calculations in the world tree. We also see Layla suggest to Desmond to look at not just future timelines, but alternate ones as well, so maybe Layla and Desmond may choose an alternate timeline and become the 'authors' of the new time, and write the code for that new timeline where a catastrophe never happens. I struggled to understand the significance of the ending of AC Valhalla, but after looking back at origins and revisiting the ending, things are starting to line up now.
What I took from the Isu messages, is there is another solar flare coming, or at least a world destroy event. Layla will have to find some way to stop it.
but that makes no sense...animus just creates simulation of memories. Its not time travel... It's like saying "if we change this historical movie it will change the pass as well". In Odyssey the explanation is "DNA is incomplete so you can improvise"
If that is so... then, the end of Oddysey.... Assuming that there is a Canon explanation of which, Kassandra Or Alexios, you control. At the beginning of the game you can choose the DNA sequence you want too see. Alexios or Kassandra. Isn't that a Change with the RPG decisions?
I think Assassin's Creed Odyssey is more important than some of us think. "The reader has no power. He is but an observer." There will be an Assassin's Creed Odyssey novel that is considered canon with Kassandra as the main character, the story being told not from within the animus but from the actual time period like the novel Assassin's Creed Secret Crusade tells Altair's story from the first AC game to Bloodlines to Revelations. As the reader, we cannot change what happens in the "canon" story of the novelization no matter how ugly certain events get. "But the author... the author invents the future. The author owns the future." But in the game, thanks to the open world RPG elements, we are the author. We decide in Layla's animus if Kassandra is the hero like in the novel or her twin brother Alexios, and we have the freedom to deviate from the "canon" Assassin's Creed Odyssey story, possibly to break the code and node Kassandra "canonically" failed to break.
I love this! The problem now is if Ubisoft care enough to pursue it properly, thus is something that could bring AC to the next level fuck trying to appeal to the masses, you have the fanbase now run with it!
Although I was already aware of everything you talked about in this video,I watched it til the end.Your presentation is phenomenal,great work!You really put a lot of effort into trying to explain with all the available information this specific(and very important) topic.You've earned my subscription.
Layla hearing these messages from the Isu explains (at least for me) why Odyssey is the way it is in terms of character select and dialogue options. I'm guessing Layla can change the past with her animus? Or she might attempt to do it, in any case. Going to be interesting to see once the game releases.
So.. strange afterthought, but the interaction between time, the Code as explained, and the Animus as it currently operates makes me wonder if they're trying to push Layla into building an Animus interface that can allow her to view the code - Or remove the 'cage' the Isu left on humanity. She's shown she's damn good at tinkering with the Animus, and it's pretty evident that we're no longer just re-experiencing a memory, like with the original Animus, but actively in control of that memory. Oh well, derp theory ahoy.
I have a bold prediction that in the sequel Layla will be aware of Bayeks forthcoming death from the hands of a person (could be a templar or even one of the hidden ones) but she manages to control bayek saving his life and altering time itself
S Allen The clearest interpretation was that the key for the Grand Temple was Eve. The key Haytham found must have been used by Eve to lock Juno during the human uprising. And it was probably coded by her DNA, so nobody else would be able to find a way to open the seal. ("Find Eve. The key. Her DNA. In Eden.") Notice how we do not have any more details about the temple key on any media or wiki. Juno wanted Eves key to be found so Desmond could save the world... and free her. Another support for my theory is that it doesnt seem normal for the Isu to lock the device that would create a protective shield around the world. The device was locked because of the new dangerous functionality. Freeing Juno. That would imply that the early humans like Adam and Eve were able to use the items of the Isu.
@@Aristocratic13 hm... Ironic isn't it? We worship god and can do very different sords of wicked and fanatical things because of that worship. Same as Templars. Really ironic.
I love your explanation, or even theory behind these messages in Origins. I think this is probably the best way to put all of them together. I just finished the game, and am looking forward to playing Odyssey. I don't want or need any spoilers, but I have a feeling there will be some pretty cool moments of us/Layla in the animus 'breaking the code/node". Hope that means making out own decisions and choices.
MagicalMelon567 they need to go back to originality of this game series. Having a protagonist and also making it clear about this Apple of Eden, First civilization and what catastrophic event is about to occur or in the future.
Emblazzee Origination at the latest GDC the brand director said that a third person MD protagonist is better story telling vessel.. so.. I'd say that's good news
nice video man! Ive always loved the cryptic side of AC games it really makes you think and i think in origins they've really delved into it now and those Isu messages blew my mind when i 1st heard them but i after hearing each one (reversed audio too) i thought exactly the same as you and it seems that Layla is the key to it all or at least the key to understanding the code and like they said her animus is different as is the mind that created it, seriously looking forward to the next game hoping it has more modern day game play with Layla that would be cool ive also wondered if Desmond's son will have a role to play at some point i guess all we can do is wait and see!
i love how ubishoft adds all these cryptic messages and mysteries on their AC games and yeet that shit out of the window on the next game. on AC1, 2, BH, Reve, 3, 4 there where always this connection with each game but lately the games feels like they are not connected in anyway. they need to add more of the modern day in, like in the Ezio saga. i like how they try to dive in more of the ISU side of thing and story but i also want to see more of the Assassin stuff. i would love to see AC game based on the modern day outside of Animus from a field assassins point of view
Great video man! I just finished reading through all the messages a couple times while completing the game for the first time and you got every bit right! And presented it in a mysterious awesome way!
Just came across this video and it blew my f**king mind!!!!! A lot of your analysis made a whole lot of sense. I was often confused about those hidden messages and their true meaning but now thanks to you i got a better idea of the truth behind them. Thanks!!!
What if breaking the code is done by the bleeding effect?? That would explain why Desmond was able to be a bridge between ISU and human world's. The bleeding effect could be the gateway into living the words of the creed, it could be the key point in which the 6th sense is unlocked, the transformation point from observer to author??
In AC Revelations. Jupiter refers to the "Nexus of Time" I believe he was speaking of a Super Computing Devise. That was able to predict to a T. Possible futures of out comes the Isu (Juno,Minerva,Jupiter) were looking for in order to prevent the same cycle from occurring again. And if there were future individuals using those outcomes they could "guide" or manipulate (Desmond) with prerecorded messages in a bottle to help along the way???
Fuck dude, This video was just f*cking great!! (Just like your others btw!) I just love how you even think of these things. These things, which no-one ever bothers to crack their mind about. But you, my man, you just come up with the craziest things & the best part of it is that it all makes sense! I really hope you nailed it 'cause that would be a great way for assassin's creed to continue the story. Please keep up these kind of videos man, I just love them!
Momos Dab Game nah he's not lol I want a FUTURE AC like the concept art that came with Brotherhood showing the earliest concept art for origins i can find ( i called an egypt AC WAAAY back when i got that art in the collectors edition) On that art card there was a far future looking assassin covered in future tech
A spin-off at least wouldn’t hurt, if it works out Ubisoft could definitely use it in future works. If it weren’t for modern day I honestly wouldn’t give much a damn about the series, since the franchise’s importance is the implications it has in the now, that these secret orders from the past could still affect the present. If there were no modern time, then what would even be the point? What would it matter?
and without the modern elements the historic ones would have no context. we'd just be running around in a 'period piece hack n slash game' instead of a franchise with an overall storyline.
Tyler this video was incredible! Well, well done. Some the pieces I got from playing Origins but you laid it all here for us to see better and understand better. But just at the end of the video I remembered something, that is the ending of Revelations. Ezio talks to Desmond directly, is it possible that he... do you think?
Bout a week late to the party, but damn good vid man. I found all of these messages and I knew there was some serious shit at work, but I did not put it all together like this. I just really hope they actually follow up on what they've done here
The fourth message for me is the best, cause I already understood this princicple of nodes that cannot be changed. They are not fixed in time and yet they are, at the same time.
I wonder if the messages, because they were meant for Layla were recorded in modern English. I just really want to know what Bayek thought when he perceived them. "Like well there was a miracle from a god, probably cause of how I'm entering tombs all the time. Let's hope their was nothing important in them."
If I’m thinking about this right, any time the Isu converse with Desmond, Layla, or their ancestors (or in Bayek’s case, possibly not an ancestor), then a node could be the pivotal moments in the lives of the characters we play. So maybe the goal is for Ubisoft to let us have different endings once, so we can “break the node.” Makes sense, but I prefer a set story with no choices like the old Assassins Creed games. But that’s a theory I have for what an example of a node could be.
Also, given this knowledge, I can see a path to two future entries that would shake up the AC formula. One in which we travel all the way back to the time of the Isu using an upgraded version of Layla's animus. Then, a second one in which she cracks the code, allowing us to jump around in time through the past, present, and future--perhaps even manipulating time as a gameplay, story, and combat mechanic.
Layla is the key. It says the mind that made it is different. Meaning something about her mind is different than everyone else's. She already broke part of the code by being able to see memories of anybody she wants (none relatives)
I could totally see the Assassins Creed franchise being crossed over with the Wheel of Time franchise. The philosophy of "Break the Code, Break the Node" come very close to the principles of using the One Power, also that time and reality is a simulation and tat there are many possible futures that can occur, but there are set points that MUST happen, spokes on a wheel if you must.
I’m still waiting for a Assassin’s Creed crossover. All, if not, the important assassins being in one game and meeting one another is the one game I would love seeing.
Yes, this is what I was looking for! My train of thought nicely put together in a comprehensible way :) Btw, the messages reminded me of the movie Arrival.
A little late... but I don't think it came from the Isu. I think the Messenger just referenced it in this monologue to Layla to help her understand Time. For her to understand the Creed literally, not just figuratively.
I think in the next couple of assassin‘s creed games, this is my prediction, but I think the Isu are trying rewrite their own history so that their catastrophe won’t happen again. I don’t mean the 2012 potential catastrophe but to somehow manipulate time to a point where they can prevent their own ancient civilization from dying out when the solar flare hits first at 75,000 years ago. I think dealing with the humans and a semi pacifistic way is just a way to get them to somehow work together only for the ISU‘s favor. It’s like the Terminator movies where they keep trying to prevent Skynet from going online every single time but never works, judgment day still happens. Just imagine after Layla became a being of light alongside Desmond allegedly, we are trying to explore possible futures after hypothetically seeing the 2012 Event takes place, what she could imagine how the world would be had the first catastrophe never happened, what will become of the humans then or the ISU? How evolve further could they possibly be after all that time in our present day? Somehow I think throughout this entire comment I made I think one or two of those points will be addressed in the next couple games
Hey Tyler good too see you back at it man. Really like the video man, but I thought I might offer some constructive criticism. Firstly, it sounds like you're reading of a script, nothing with having a script but if you can try to make the delivery a bit more 'genuine' and more 'passionate', if you get what I mean. Secondly, I reckon transition slides soul be nice because you go onto different points seamlessly, that's good but if maybe having like a screen saying what you're gonna about next or some kind of image showing that would be nice. For example at around 3:55 when you said "let's ask the question...", you could've added like a pop up on the screen or some slide or something indicating the question, it'd just draw the viewers attention. Maybe some music in the background would do good. Sorry if this sounds like I'm telling you what to do, I'm really not trying to do that, just looking to help. But in any case nice video, really looking forward to what comes next. Good luck bro
You should do an update to this video after the events of Valhalla. In the video you asked why Layla. Now we know that she joined Desmond in figuring out all the possible futures to prevent the next catastrophe. And other important information is that the reader is actually Desmond and the autor, could be Basin?
The Inaudible Audio is the Ubisoft's move to change it's traditional Assassin's Creed Games to a more complex and more flexible gameplay... In the first Reverse "Time", refers to the limitations of Ubisoft to use the Timeline of history, since history is written and done, it only needs to be relived not to be altered with. The second reversed audio "Break the Code, Break the Node", refers to the near end of the franchise since it reached the latest possible history of Victorian Era, London. "Stories" that is being said 3 times refers to the different stories we might made or create if we didn't bound ourselves to this limitation of historical accuracy of events The 3rd reversed audio "Collapse the Wave", Refers to the 1 year break of the yearly release of Assassins Creed, this break gave way to new ideas and polished Assassins Creed Origins gameplay with compelling Story. The 4th reverse audio "Overload your mind's capacity", refers to the imagination and creativity that can be done in the franchise if it is not limited to the historical accuracy. The 5th and last reverse audio "Reality is a Simulation, Break the Code" refers to the Ubisoft's movement to break the realism and historical accuracy of Assassins Creed to provide and give more gameplay and story that is not limited but creative and imaginative to the fans. Assassins's Creed Odyssey is the Full Fruit of this Movement.
Oh my god, after playing Valhalla this makes so much sense. If they control time and break the code they can stop Desmond from saving the world and break the node
My family laughs at me because I’m in my 40’s and still love games 😂. If they only knew how awesome and deep Assassin’s Creed games are! Amazing video! I wish Ubisoft and SARAH J. MAAS would create a game together from her series of books (Throne of Glass).
They're about to start turning the Animus into a time machine and start having future Assassin's Creed game stories where the Animus can change events in history instead of just living out memories of it. That's EXACTLY what it sounds like this story with Layla is headed. This would also explain the lore-change in AC: Odyssey where you can choose alternate endings; alternate endings which in future games could be alternate versions of reality made through the animus.
To change time.. Abstergo can make a time machine for evil purposes but then the assassins can use it to go to the esu period and stop the making of the Pieces of Eden
To team of people working on the Assassin's Creed series are absolutely genius people. To understand all of this you must have an open and bright vision and a big consciousness to understand all of this. Great video man holy shit! The subjects that are discussed here are such interesting life topics, absolutely beautiful!
Considering the assassins creed games (at least all the new ones) are hinting at the entire ac universe even present time is all a simulation, which would be super neat.

Fucking great video! This was spot on, hit all the right points, looking forward to the bright return of Tynamite
But if this is true what Tynamite said, than Odyssey is more in canon than you gave it credit for, isnt it?
I liked Odyssey
@@Marquis-Sade stale
@@dylanrinker6831 What now?
You are speaking of the Princes of Persia and the dagger of time.
Damn... Assassin's creed getting deep again with these cryptic messages. They have been missed :)
This brings a new meaning to “Nothing is true, everything is permitted.”
You have the eyes
Of a hidden one
Esu
Come!!!! give yourself to time
That is from the Thelema of Aleistar Crowley and the O.T.O Ordo Templi Orientis, not the Assassin's. Someone got their history wrong.
TYLER'S BACK BOYS!
To take a page from Doctor Who: there are fixed points in time and there are those that are in flux. The Nodes and the Paths respectively.
Desmond broke the 12-12-2012 Node, but now Time is trying to correct that. To place back Humanity's expiration date. Humans have to gain to sense of Time that was not even installed in them.

Tyler why do you always fuck with my mind ??? I mean seriously, you are a genius for being able to think of this & it all makes sense & is most likely the story we are going to be following in the coming games, great Video buddy & welcome back :D
You having an orgasm?
so is this the reason we have dialogue options and multiple endings in odyssey? Layla is learning how to read and change time?
Which is exactly what Layla does when she enters Yggdrassil in Valhalla…
You *were* onto something. :)
*Spoiler:
I'm here after the modern day ending of Ac Valhalla, and I'm just amazed by how spot on Tynamite's analysis is.
In the ending of valhalla, we see Layla join desmond as they both are finally able to read time and read calculations in the world tree. We also see Layla suggest to Desmond to look at not just future timelines, but alternate ones as well, so maybe Layla and Desmond may choose an alternate timeline and become the 'authors' of the new time, and write the code for that new timeline where a catastrophe never happens.
I struggled to understand the significance of the ending of AC Valhalla, but after looking back at origins and revisiting the ending, things are starting to line up now.
That ending definitely does sound like "Break the code, break the node" the nexus point that they can't seem to break to prevent the 2nd Ragnarok
The comeback is done. Amazing video my man. It is truly indeed your best video. Keep up the good work.
You broke the code, the node........ and my mind! This was amazing!
Now i know why Bayek dont seem to freak out with all those voices talking about time, simulation, desmond, 2012 etc; Bayek dont hear a thing...
One of the isu temples says “the code is time, and time is code”
What I took from the Isu messages, is there is another solar flare coming, or at least a world destroy event. Layla will have to find some way to stop it.
So is it possible that Layla figures out how to break the code and that's why AC:Odyssey has more RPG elements and choices in it?
Pretty much, yeah.
Tynamite At least they're giving it a canon explanation
but that makes no sense...animus just creates simulation of memories. Its not time travel... It's like saying "if we change this historical movie it will change the pass as well". In Odyssey the explanation is "DNA is incomplete so you can improvise"
If that is so... then, the end of Oddysey....
Assuming that there is a Canon explanation of which, Kassandra Or Alexios, you control.
At the beginning of the game you can choose the DNA sequence you want too see. Alexios or Kassandra.
Isn't that a Change with the RPG decisions?
As they say in this video “how much of your free will is actually your own”
Tynamite---Wow man this video was super deep. My compliments to you. You answered a few questions I had about AC: Origins.
Thanks for the love Tynamite.
Wow Tyler, a very well executed video explaining the Isu messages! Really enjoyed it and helped me understand those message a lot more.
What a great video to comeback with.
Recently finished my playthrough of AC Valhalla, and this video with what happens with "The Reader" excites me
Came here just to say WELCOME BACK
I hope you're here to stay for a longer period of time
I think Assassin's Creed Odyssey is more important than some of us think.
"The reader has no power. He is but an observer."
There will be an Assassin's Creed Odyssey novel that is considered canon with Kassandra as the main character, the story being told not from within the animus but from the actual time period like the novel Assassin's Creed Secret Crusade tells Altair's story from the first AC game to Bloodlines to Revelations. As the reader, we cannot change what happens in the "canon" story of the novelization no matter how ugly certain events get.
"But the author... the author invents the future. The author owns the future."
But in the game, thanks to the open world RPG elements, we are the author. We decide in Layla's animus if Kassandra is the hero like in the novel or her twin brother Alexios, and we have the freedom to deviate from the "canon" Assassin's Creed Odyssey story, possibly to break the code and node Kassandra "canonically" failed to break.
I love this! The problem now is if Ubisoft care enough to pursue it properly, thus is something that could bring AC to the next level fuck trying to appeal to the masses, you have the fanbase now run with it!

Oh well, derp theory ahoy.
Could it be telling us that we need to go back and change something that happened? Like change Desmonds decision or some other Decision?
Racing Souz To be honest that would be pretty great. Those scenes we saw of the potential future where Desmond lived looked bloody interesting.
This would be nice!!!
If a node is a fixed point,then it can't be stoped,it can only be postponed
I have a bold prediction that in the sequel Layla will be aware of Bayeks forthcoming death from the hands of a person (could be a templar or even one of the hidden ones) but she manages to control bayek saving his life and altering time itself
SparkZ 1564 remember everything is permitted
Supposedly there are talks about a piece of Eden that could change time, but it was locked up or something so that no one would used it . . .
Not gonna happen...
Fuck I've been waiting for this
In AC Brotherhood Juno refers to a she-person. Only SHE remains to be found. Does this refer to Layla?
This reffered to eve, its a possibility that layla is a modern day descendant of eve explaining her different way of thinking.
Maybe to break through they need both direct descendants of Adam and Eve (being Desmond and Layla, respectively)
+T S (AssassinOverkill) And maybe the "Father of Understanding" is needed too in order to understand the code?

Am i the only person who wants a modern day only game?
i sexually identify as a nut button yes, yes you are. Without the historical elements the won’t be assassins creed.

If there were no modern time, then what would even be the point? What would it matter?
and without the modern elements the historic ones would have no context. we'd just be running around in a 'period piece hack n slash game' instead of a franchise with an overall storyline.
Would be nice for a final game
Layla; *hearing the messages from the Isu*
Bayek; 👁️👄👁️
Tyler this video was incredible! Well, well done. Some the pieces I got from playing Origins but you laid it all here for us to see better and understand better. But just at the end of the video I remembered something, that is the ending of Revelations. Ezio talks to Desmond directly, is it possible that he... do you think?
that he is a sage?
Tyler's back! Brilliant man, please keep the ac content coming...
We better get a sequel to Origins or another game with Layla they better not just forget about her
Bout a week late to the party, but damn good vid man. I found all of these messages and I knew there was some serious shit at work, but I did not put it all together like this. I just really hope they actually follow up on what they've done here
The fourth message for me is the best, cause I already understood this princicple of nodes that cannot be changed. They are not fixed in time and yet they are, at the same time.
I wonder if the messages, because they were meant for Layla were recorded in modern English. I just really want to know what Bayek thought when he perceived them. "Like well there was a miracle from a god, probably cause of how I'm entering tombs all the time. Let's hope their was nothing important in them."
Now we know who the reader actually is in Valhalla!! You were right!!
Great video Tyler! Superb to have you back, all the best to you.
It's funny to me how recording number 6 announces the possibility of choosing dialogues, and number 4 explains why there are similar effects anyway.
Great job Tyler, cant wait to see what u create next. This was a masterpiece
If I’m thinking about this right, any time the Isu converse with Desmond, Layla, or their ancestors (or in Bayek’s case, possibly not an ancestor), then a node could be the pivotal moments in the lives of the characters we play. So maybe the goal is for Ubisoft to let us have different endings once, so we can “break the node.” Makes sense, but I prefer a set story with no choices like the old Assassins Creed games. But that’s a theory I have for what an example of a node could be.
Amazing video. I've been waiting for someone to put to words my thoughts on this, and you've nailed it.
Also, given this knowledge, I can see a path to two future entries that would shake up the AC formula. One in which we travel all the way back to the time of the Isu using an upgraded version of Layla's animus. Then, a second one in which she cracks the code, allowing us to jump around in time through the past, present, and future--perhaps even manipulating time as a gameplay, story, and combat mechanic.
No Desmond stopped the new catastrophie but Layla is going to finish it
Layla is the key. It says the mind that made it is different. Meaning something about her mind is different than everyone else's. She already broke part of the code by being able to see memories of anybody she wants (none relatives)
Amazing video I love the philosophical quandaries this franchise gives players and how great this game was
I could totally see the Assassins Creed franchise being crossed over with the Wheel of Time franchise. The philosophy of "Break the Code, Break the Node" come very close to the principles of using the One Power, also that time and reality is a simulation and tat there are many possible futures that can occur, but there are set points that MUST happen, spokes on a wheel if you must.
I’m still waiting for a Assassin’s Creed crossover. All, if not, the important assassins being in one game and meeting one another is the one game I would love seeing.
Nice work im impressed, cant say I let my mind get that deep into the meanings but its definitely got me wondering about the franchise direction now
We need a full modern day assassins creed game, and crossing it with watch dogs, aiden pearce especially. Just like old times
Hell no lmao
this was truly a great video, i cannot express how on the nail you are.
Yes, this is what I was looking for! My train of thought nicely put together in a comprehensible way :) Btw, the messages reminded me of the movie Arrival.
I'd like to hear your thoughts now that Leyla possess the staff of hermes from Odyssey, and can now alter time for herself
The creed came from the Isu? Damn
Hello captain obvious. I've known that since AC1, thank you very much.
Riiight...Sure you did Daniel the all knowing
A little late... but I don't think it came from the Isu.
I think the Messenger just referenced it in this monologue to Layla to help her understand Time. For her to understand the Creed literally, not just figuratively.
Daniel Antony fuck off with the bullshit, kid
It was obvious that the assassins had a connection with the isu.
Well now we no that the reader is Desmond
It seems this interpretation is accurate after Valhalla and what's happening to the Earth now
Great fucking video man, excited to see what else you've got in store for us soon
Have been looking to this kind of explanation video for almost a week! Thank youu you fckn geniuss
What a complicated way to say "hi subspecies, if you don't think outside the box you will be fucked up"
I think in the next couple of assassin‘s creed games, this is my prediction, but I think the Isu are trying rewrite their own history so that their catastrophe won’t happen again. I don’t mean the 2012 potential catastrophe but to somehow manipulate time to a point where they can prevent their own ancient civilization from dying out when the solar flare hits first at 75,000 years ago. I think dealing with the humans and a semi pacifistic way is just a way to get them to somehow work together only for the ISU‘s favor.
It’s like the Terminator movies where they keep trying to prevent Skynet from going online every single time but never works, judgment day still happens.
Just imagine after Layla became a being of light alongside Desmond allegedly, we are trying to explore possible futures after hypothetically seeing the 2012 Event takes place, what she could imagine how the world would be had the first catastrophe never happened, what will become of the humans then or the ISU? How evolve further could they possibly be after all that time in our present day? Somehow I think throughout this entire comment I made I think one or two of those points will be addressed in the next couple games
Hey Tyler good too see you back at it man. Really like the video man, but I thought I might offer some constructive criticism. Firstly, it sounds like you're reading of a script, nothing with having a script but if you can try to make the delivery a bit more 'genuine' and more 'passionate', if you get what I mean. Secondly, I reckon transition slides soul be nice because you go onto different points seamlessly, that's good but if maybe having like a screen saying what you're gonna about next or some kind of image showing that would be nice. For example at around 3:55 when you said "let's ask the question...", you could've added like a pop up on the screen or some slide or something indicating the question, it'd just draw the viewers attention. Maybe some music in the background would do good. Sorry if this sounds like I'm telling you what to do, I'm really not trying to do that, just looking to help. But in any case nice video, really looking forward to what comes next. Good luck bro
*more transition slides
Like the one you did around 2:59
I think he sounds pretty passionate myself. Well thought out definitely, but not boring or passionless like he’s just reading off a script.
This video, the translations, freaked my mind.
Fantastic video! Congrats on the return!
Considering what we know about ac Valhalla, this video is prophetic
You should do an update to this video after the events of Valhalla. In the video you asked why Layla. Now we know that she joined Desmond in figuring out all the possible futures to prevent the next catastrophe. And other important information is that the reader is actually Desmond and the autor, could be Basin?
Why am i not subscribed to this channel. Great vid, thank you for putting the time and effort into it. 👌👍
There is one being still “alive” with the capacity to understand and break the code. And that is Juno.
Lord Vespasian not anymore
She ded lol
I’m not skipping this 35 second ad daddy ❤️
The Inaudible Audio is the Ubisoft's move to change it's traditional Assassin's Creed Games to a more complex and more flexible gameplay...
In the first Reverse "Time", refers to the limitations of Ubisoft to use the Timeline of history, since history is written and done, it only needs to be relived not to be altered with.
The second reversed audio "Break the Code, Break the Node", refers to the near end of the franchise since it reached the latest possible history of Victorian Era, London.
"Stories" that is being said 3 times refers to the different stories we might made or create if we didn't bound ourselves to this limitation of historical accuracy of events
The 3rd reversed audio "Collapse the Wave", Refers to the 1 year break of the yearly release of Assassins Creed, this break gave way to new ideas and polished Assassins Creed Origins gameplay with compelling Story.
The 4th reverse audio "Overload your mind's capacity", refers to the imagination and creativity that can be done in the franchise if it is not limited to the historical accuracy.
The 5th and last reverse audio "Reality is a Simulation, Break the Code" refers to the Ubisoft's movement to break the realism and historical accuracy of Assassins Creed to provide and give more gameplay and story that is not limited but creative and imaginative to the fans.
Assassins's Creed Odyssey is the Full Fruit of this Movement.
WTF TYLER!!! What a comeback, amazing video!!!
I am so happy your back
9:50 I see it now. On the righ side are branching dialogs and choices. Teasing nonlinear story and branching dialogs in Odyssey.
Oh my god, after playing Valhalla this makes so much sense. If they control time and break the code they can stop Desmond from saving the world and break the node
My family laughs at me because I’m in my 40’s and still love games 😂. If they only knew how awesome and deep Assassin’s Creed games are! Amazing video!
I wish Ubisoft and SARAH J. MAAS would create a game together from her series of books (Throne of Glass).
They're about to start turning the Animus into a time machine and start having future Assassin's Creed game stories where the Animus can change events in history instead of just living out memories of it. That's EXACTLY what it sounds like this story with Layla is headed. This would also explain the lore-change in AC: Odyssey where you can choose alternate endings; alternate endings which in future games could be alternate versions of reality made through the animus.
Man is forth wall brake is ... cool
To change time.. Abstergo can make a time machine for evil purposes but then the assassins can use it to go to the esu period and stop the making of the Pieces of Eden
To team of people working on the Assassin's Creed series are absolutely genius people. To understand all of this you must have an open and bright vision and a big consciousness to understand all of this. Great video man holy shit! The subjects that are discussed here are such interesting life topics, absolutely beautiful!
Considering the assassins creed games (at least all the new ones) are hinting at the entire ac universe even present time is all a simulation, which would be super neat.
