Just finished the game, and I can’t quite figure out if Basim actually has an understanding with Loki, or if there was an element of trickery (with Loki being after all The Trickster).
Him posing as Nehal, a supposed friend, trying to shield Basim from loneliness, seems a bit like he was coercing Basim into accepting him, and then almost completely taking over. Also, the jinni, which supposedly represents Loki’s past memories of pain, also seems like it could be a trick.
Because in Valhalla, especially during the modern day era, the Basim we see seems to be 100% Loki, with no personality traits of Basim left.
Thank you! Finally someone is making sense. Mirage is misdirected and it’s half of a game.
I am literally you lol!
I had the exact same theory but I think the game writers didnt intend it as such. Missed opportunity IMO. Making Loki torture Basim passiveagressivly would be an amazing fit with his character
14:34 Milad is also the name of a persian prince in the earliest days of the Iranian Empire. Milad was considered as a persian hero in the “Book of Kings.” It also means Son of the sun. Theres also another relation of the word Milad in norse mythology leading to Sol and Mani. Sol being the sun and Mani being the moon. The isu knife is also almost shaped as a Crescent of a moon (like Moon knight’s throwing knives). Milad’s armor in game is also a black version of the Initiate of Alamut suit, so it could be a signature of “night.”
Dang yeah, I realized this too once the script and audio was already locked - but yeah, nice find!
Interestingly enough there was a Sol and Mani Isu Temple in Dawn of Ragnarok, I guess some writer did have fun with the small connections… (or maybe this wasn’t intentional at all 😌)
Milad's story in Persian myth is similar to Baldr. It would be fitting for Baldr to be his tormentor, considering their relationship in real mythos.
I hope Basim becomes the new protagonist in the modern day and they don’t write him off in a comic like Juno. He could make a great anti hero.
About that
@@carternelson7929 ....they already did?
not going to happen. In Infinity, we will play as ourselves.
@@DeviniteHD I thought infinity was just a HUB for the new games. My understanding was it isn’t a standalone game.
@@DeviniteHDwhy...
I really hope Basim & Alethia continue to be a presence in the series going forward, as I really want to see what exactly they are planning. Yes, we already know that Basim wants to reunite himself with his family and bring the Brotherhood's to the Templars, and we know Alethia has made herself the embodiment of liberating Truth for the human race, but its becoming more and more implied that there are ulterior motives at play. Ever since Valhalla, where we see how manipulative both can really be: Basim being the trickster god of mischief himself, Loki, and Alethia making both Kassandra & Layla sacrifice their lives as glorified delivery girls just to get herself back into Loki's possession, combined with the vengeful nature of their children, it all really paints a picture of something potentially more concerning for the heroes down the line.
It's almost like a parallel to how Juno & Aita were using the Templars to regain full control of humanity as instruments, Loki & Alethia are now using the Assassins to directly affect humanity to another extreme (possibly through a dangerous level of freedom/chaos).
And also when Loki's consciousness blended with Basim's consciousness, Basim's voice changed to the one which we used to hear in Valhalla. Because through all the events in Mirage his voice was a bit different one.
It was because of being a different actor as well. In Mirage he sounds not only younger, but kinder too.
@@cidiose But I guess it was intentional, because at the end of the game, after Bassim accepted Loki's memories, he sounds the way he sounded in Valhalla.
@@yd9811unfortunately wasn't the same voice
I noticed this too. If they had the same actor play the younger Basim this wouldn't have worked perfectly.
@@enenrax So what? They could as well not bother asking previous actor to voice Bassim after Loki was awakend. And we don't talk about some big time skip between these scene where Bassim's and Loky's personalities blended and we still hear the usual voice of young Bassim and the scene where Bassim speaks in a voice from Valhalla, between these scenes only an hour or so passed. So that's not about him being older or something. So they did it intentionally to show that that's a different person already.
ok hear me out....
is it possible that Milad was actually Loki
The Isu sword we get in the game is named after a sword in Persian mythology that was used to kill an entity known as Fulad-zereh that was made invulnerable by its witch mother. Pretty similar to Baldr.
plus the location for the armor is provided by Nehal aka Loki after she saw it in a dream apparently. The weapons could have been confiscated from Loki when he was imprisoned.
The actual story of how Baldr died was due to mistletoe but the humans living in that region might have thought that Loki killed him using his sword. like how in AC 2 they say cleopatra was killed by Aya when in actuality it was suicide
that's a great theory! nehal نهال is also a persian word meaning sapling, young tree. yggdrasil? mistletoe used to kill baldr? mistilteinn ("mistletoe") as a legendary sword?
I think, like how Aletheia hacked the messages that came out in AC Origins; Loki, somehow, modified the disks. And giving Basim the idea that he was tortured, in order to give him control more easily. And whoever they are really torturing is Baldr, who although in Down of Ragnarok, they say that Loki is locked up, in the animus anomalies, we hear Loki happy that he took revenge on Odin with his son. And the jinnin would also be another of Loki's plays, to generate danger and thus also give security to Basim and have easier control. It even makes me think that the assassination ability that Basim has is Loki having control for a short period of time, his presence being so strong that the animus makes the jump to a more controlled synchronization better.
I would simply like to point out that if you are right about the time period of loki's imprisonment it woukd make sense if this is in reference to the time in the norse myth after baldurs death and they capture loki and tie him to a rock and let a snake drip it's venom on his face
Considering that in the story loki is put in a cave on midgard and tortured with snake venom dripping on his face since the prison is in a cave under alamut and the shape of the dagger looking like a snakes fang maybe taking from the story having loki be bound by the entrails of one of his sons Narvi maybe through the lense of reality hecwas jailed bybone of his own sons (or the jailer is ment to represent the snake from thst story)
And on milad's outfit sone people have mentioned it could be loki's outfit it could also make sense in that stories events with loki builds a house in a remote area underground in midgard and he also turns into a salmon in the story to try and escape capture by thor and the other gods
The story is called the binding of loki
A retelling of a norse myth story but told through the eyes of early Arabian myth
I suggest anybody to read Assassin's Creed the Golden City, it's a great read. It's set after Mirage and before Valhalla. I also cannot wait for the book AC Mirage Dautghter of No One.
I loved the change in Basim as he acted more like the trickster Loki.
Like the scene in the beginning
Spoilers….
Hytham: “How did our enemies manage to follow us.”
Basim: “Probably because I told them we are here to undermine the emperor.”
Hytham: 😧
6:20 I would love it if it was Carlos Rota's voice, it would show that Loki and Basim would have different voices, just like Eivor and Odin.
and I doubt that the jailer was Odin, Havi was in distant places (stuck in that labyrinth for days or months) after Baldr and not to mention that he wouldn't mind letting someone else torture Loki.
and it was in this game that we saw the difference between Basim and Eivor, Loki took advantage of Basim's fear of loneliness to deceive and accept him, Odin tried to take Eivor for himself and also tried to deceive her, but she didn't accept it because she wasn't alone
Basim is such a great character. Those small details make him so damn good. I hope they'll realese a DLC, because Mirage needs this DLF !!
And this is why I love Assassin's Creed... thank you for all of this. Haha, sometimes I don't always get it, or if I do, I am not sure if I'm correct in my assumptions.
I wish Lore was written better, but I mean, it's been going for 15 years 🙃
thanks very much for the analysis, in a quick search i could find tha Milad is an midle eastern hero, mentioned in a book called shahnameh, book of the kings, but i couldnt find more about him, even searched on a english version of the shahnameh, but at least at version tha i manged to obtain, nothing is written about him, maybe a more deep analysis on Milad character may bee intersting, can even bee possible to make a paralel to Norse or Greek Mithologies
I loved Mirage, and the traumatic experiences held by Loki/Basim only reminds us that the mythical veneer covering the binding of Fenrir is all the more terrifying because a) Odin and Tyr struggled together to bring Fenrir to heel, b) that Fenrir was at most a child/teenager by the time that occurred, and c) Torture was commonplace in the Isu realms, and made institutional by Odin, which means that Odin having a vendetta against Loki or Fenrir became irrelevant because the Isu prison system would by default be oppressive. This lets us in to understand why Loki was so terrified of Odin imprisioning his son, and the huge extent Loki enacted to both get his son into Asgard secretly, but also to wring him from prison.
Additionally, this brings me back to the ending of Valhalla *spoilers*, where Basim spoke upon Eivor's grave in the modern day that he can now look to free his children. I would imagine that even if Basim found some sort of peace, and Aletheia seemingly being reunited with Basim... waking Jormungandr and Fenrir up somehow, with their memories (of improsonment and torture no less), would spell some sort of catastrophe for modern day Assasins and Templars both to deal with.
Loki's binding andt that of his children were different. Loki suffered as much as he did because he was responsible for the death of Baldur, something that completely broke Odin and sent shivers even through Evior as she remembered losing her son. That is the reason why Odin personally was there to torture Loki, otherwise he would've just been locked away or left to the guards. Not only that but Fenrir was being looked after by Tyr, whom was reffered to as "always kind to them" by Basim. I don't think Fenrir was necessarily set up for torture, just incarceration.
I'm not sure Fenrir was a teenager at most, I think the mythological veil might have conceiled how much time passed in reality. The Builder building the tower so fast and Fenrir's sudden growth may be clues to show it all happened in many years, but Eivor saw them as really fast events since in myths the Builder had only a week to complete the barrier.
I am not sure the jailer was Odin based on the location Odin led the Isu located in northern Europe but the prison Loki was in is located in the Middle East
If George W. Bush could have prisons in Guantanamo and Baghdad, why couldn't Odin?
I thought Basim was inprisoned here after he killed Odins son, Baldur. He poisoned him with the ingredient mistletoe, his only weakness, as revealed in an animus anomaly for imprisoning his son Fenrir
That could also be a very interesting possibility honestly!
@AccessAnimus in Norse mythology, after Loki murders Baldur, as punishment, Loki now lies in a cave, bound to a rock by Odin. A snake drips venom onto his face over and over, but Loki's faithful wife catches the venom in a bowl, protecting Loki from most of the harm, and this will continue all the way until Ragnaröck begins and only then will Loki finally escape, and then one of the first things Loki will do is fight Heimdall.
What we saw in the animus anomoly cutscene from Valhalla was after Loki had escaped his prison and all his torment from Odin once Ragnaröck had begun, and then Loki murders Heimdall.
Ubisoft writings team took one of the Norse mythology stories and put in their own adaptions, I believe this is exactly what it is and that this is the reason why Loki was in the torture chamber, and why Odin tortured him so much, because it was on a very personal matter to him. Very interesting lore
I really enjoyed Mirage, but I have a few issues:
1. The length obviously, I finished the game in just 12h.
2. While Basim’s story is very interesting, the game still fails to answer some of the most important questions we had (what are Basim’s intentions, does any of his old personality remain or does Loki take over etc.)
3. Most importantly, I hoped the game would advance the modern day plot, which was basically almost abandoned after AC4, and picked up again in Valhalla, but in Mirage all we get is one opening line from William Miles. There isn’t even a modern day protagonist (I think for the first time in any AC game). And what worries me most is that, with the series moving in a new direction now, Basim’s plotline will be abandoned or relegated to a comic, just like how it happened with Juno.
The one on the ground has clearly Lokis nose, but the jailer does not look like to have that of Ivor/Odin. Btw. why would the Nordic Isu build a prison in a region thats that far south east.
That could be the faction Loki belonged to, after all Loki is a trouble maker for everyone. So Milad could be Sutr and Loki was perhaps imprissioned because he caused trouble there too.
Maybe that was the reason why he ended up in the north.
This was so much better done than it was done in Valhalla
Im happy Ubisoft finally come out with an interesting protagonist. Layla was good but I already love Baesim much more
I knew street away Nehal is Loki (remaining essence) inside Basim. When they bith reunited (through memories) its like Loki was reborn (as Basim of course, as soon as he got the memories) it made him realize what his purpose was.
Love the twist, I just wish Nehal was real 😢
Again a wonderful Video!
I hope we get a Short DLC for Mirage, where we are in Constantinople with the Valhalla Basim. Relive the memory where Rig Reiderasson attacks The House of Shadows and fast forward to the present and play as Basim until Sigurd arrives
Would love to see Basim and Kassandra crossoverr
The Nehal thing was interesting but also really obvious
Shout out to ATA great video bro explains a lot
Thanks for the analysis, I still want to play this game. Do you plan to feature content from other games on your channel? Your content is really good
Thank you so much! We are currently focused on Assassin's Creed, but it wouldn't be half bad to open up to other games too :D
If only we had the time...
Since the prison guard asked Loki for his name, as shown in the winter palace scene, he's probably not Odin himself. How could Odin not know Loki's name right?
by the way, data miner has dug out the Isu dialogue within the game files with translations provided officially:
dű duàs hnomná arhzmrmnàæ gnsàsi [State your name for the record.]
hm més hr r n marhmid [Please, no-- No more...]
srræsnos! dű hm làygw r zàrhàsi![Enough, please! Let me out of here!]
Seylos![Silence!]
And to me personally, I like the ending of Mirage and the narrative trick about Nehal, but much to my regret I think the process of how Basim change and begin to think about himself is not very detailed and convincing. It looks like he just immediately got madly obessed with his true nature after being incited by Qabiha. Should the story be better polished and the game be more narritive-focused, at least it wouldn't get a Gamespot 6/10...
Your mistake was using Gamespot as some kind of gold standard; That aside, no, Basim was starting to question his true nature much earlier on: Qabiha just gave him more fuel.
Well, it could still be Odin who wanted Loki to "state his name for the record". Odin obviously knows who the prisoner is but maybe he wanted Loki to say his name himself to confirm his identity (for anyone who would later watch that recording)
16:48 in fact in Alamut he did see the Djinn. In the first scene of Alamut, when Basim is diving into the lake, he sees the Djinn again. Could it be that that memory was put to rest because he was short of breath? Just like Loki was also in prison? (Google translator)
Access the animus did u see we’re ac mirage menu updated and it said stayed tuned for more adventures so I guess we’re getting more content
First and I love your story analysis bro keep it up
And it would be awesome to get a story dlc with basim in Constantinople leading up to him meeting Sigurd
part 3 coming soon guys?
I remember in Valhalla odin said he imprisoned Loki for 1000 years. that’s a lot of suffering to endure
Consider Nehal not as an imaginary friend that Basim actually sees and hears, but as a dramatization of his thoughts and internal debates: a "voice of reason" generated by Loki's memories. So Basim isn't actually talking to anyone, he's just standing there thinking as Eivor does, which would explain why no one wonders who he's talking to.
In the final memory corridor, the room lights up as soon as Basim conquers the Jinni, showing that he's now aware that his voice of reason is a separate entity. In this theory, this scene dramatizes Basim's understanding of - and submission to - Loki's memories. There is no actual conversation, as is the case in Valhalla; even the Odin fight is just a dramatization. However, Roshan notices Basim look at Nehal at the end, which challenges this theory.
Also, why would Valhalla and Mirage dramatize their Sage's Isu memories so differently? Because the Animus is showing the user how the Sage is reacting to their Isu's memories. Eivor is steadfast and firmly opposes Odin's memories, while Basim finds solace in and identifies with Loki's.
Yep and some do question Basim like Roshan did at the end but with Eivor they didn't show anyone reacting to her talking which I blame the Valhalla team for not going the extra mile of interactions
@@David-nq8cv Eivor's are definitely dramatizations of her internal debates as Darby clarified. Even in the Valhalla scene, when she "passes out" and goes to fight Odin, she is really just standing in that field pulling her hair out until she decides to leave the Ygrdasil.
In Mirage, notice how Nehal only appears in Basim's corridors when he realizes who she is. That is, he realizes that his voice of reason is another being. But why would he visualize Loki as Nehal who the Animus created simply as an illustrative tool for the user? He isn't actually seeing anyone. He's passed out near the prison cell having an epiphany, while the Animus coverts his new found awareness of Loki to Nehal appearing in the corridor for the first time, so that it makes sense to the user. Meaning the jinni are dramatizations too, in this theory at least.
Though Basim clearly tells Roshan that the jinni torment him in his dreams until he wakes up "panicked and soaked with sweat". Roshan is definitely a real person, so this scene isn't dramatized, so the dramatization theory isn't perfect.
I would have liked to see Animus-y glitches when Nehal appears, like with the chain assassinations, to show it's just an Animus creation like Eivor's corridors.
@@jeremyw.5729 do you seriously only respond with paragraphs
@@David-nq8cvdo you seriously not have the attention span to be able to read more than 2 sentences without agitation
The dramatization of Eivor and Basim certainly are different, as to their acceptance of their Isu's memories as well. This might have come with the environment that they're growing up as well. With proper social support and individual personality, they might've reject their Isu's memories (like Eivor) but with Basim, sadly the doubt and his passion to know the truth are far more important.
they should make a movie or series about the isu
Considering how different Isu lived on different continents etc, isn't it weird that Norse Isu imprisoned Loki in Persia? 🤔 I wonder why would other Isu want them to imprison him in their region 🤔🤔
Odin was a man of many talents, I guess! He owned many prisons in England too!
It is proven that the "9 realms" were different regions of the world.
North America
Africa
The middle East
Asia
Europe
He wasn't the "Ruler" of all nine realms like in traditional Norse mythology.. but he was one of the most feared and respected leaders of the isu world leadership. Like America, he would have tactical military bases and also prisons in different regions of the world. Like we have prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.. or bases in Iraq, Korean, Japan, Germany, ect ect.
Also remember Loki was adapted from that region of the world. He wasn't a blue giant from Africa, but he might have been from the middle East, and found by Odin in Egypt. And was just assumed to be a half giant. Because he never matched the Norse looks of everyone else in Evors visions. Hinting to his foreign bloodline compared to the Norse. So Odin probably sent him far away where he couldn't cause more mischief.. and to the lands he was originally from.
Honestly, Loki kinda of deserved it and he feels even more of a villain now. Basim didn't feel much with the memory of having his children locked away but Eivor woke up desperate when she remembered the death of her son. People say that he's changed and he believes the Creed but I don't think that's true. His actions towards the defense of the Hidden Ones after the ending of Mirage might've been simply a means to an end since he was aware of the heir of memories and of her role reuniting him with his wife Aletheia. I hope there is a struggle with his good side in the next games given his experiences training with Roshan and being raised by Basim's father. Maybe this struggle gets represented to the players as a vision of Young Basim talking directly to him like Odin did to Eivor. I think that'd be great.
Anyone else notice his eyes turned yellow after his fusion with Loki? Clear indication of his transformation
Milad was definitely the jailer.. and his armor and seals stored in the same region.
They have the potential to make a dlc that takes place after the game where we hunt down the people that wronged basim/loki
I wanted to like the game. I really did. But it just fell so flat for me. However, I love your analysis and retelling. It made the game story so much better for me. I am disappointed with how unnecessarily subtle the story was, and how little we know of what’s going on in modern times. Thank you for bringing some much needed clarity.
What is funny is I thought the jailer looked like loki,because he has the facial shape of the loki in assassin's creed valhalla
What role do you think that Basim could have in the future if the rumors about Infinity's modern day being set in the future are true?
I really hope it's not.
Setting the "present day" in a far future would permanently kill the saga.
They have a lot to work with: desmond and layla, basim, william miles, the new catastrophe.
I guess we can only hope 🤞🏻🤞🏻
@@Manuel-21 how is that killing the modern day you saying it’s going to is it really telling me how it’s going to considering the fact that we all know Layla and Desmond Are stuck in the gray as readers basically making them immortal also Basim has the staff of Hermes making him immortal. Sure how do you say far in the future isn’t really my ideal choice because there’s still Desmond son running around and I think he should play important role in possibly putting the series to rest but that doesn’t mean I’d be mad if it happened
Come on man. The hidden one base was built over Isu Guantanamo Bay. Sad stuff.
There's no telling what will happen now, especially with Basim. And there's also the rumors about the upcoming Hexe being set in the far future, so fingers crossed the next ones will be understandable and good
The next one is Code Red so unlikely if we want Basim tie-ins to be understandable if he is in that game
Watch the trailer for Hexe. It will not be in the future
@@m.r4841 Modern Day in Hexe most definitely will be set in the future, not Animus Sessions itself
@@miljko99 Obviously; From all the clues, the Animus Sessions are seemingly taking us to the 17th Century Witch Trials in the Holy Roman Empire.
@@miljko99 Prove it
Soooooo, is Roshan Altair's great-grand mawmaw?
No, their last name means "child of no one"
the jailor really should be Odin
As a fan in love with this saga, I would like to express a feeling that I have had for too many years:
I'm a little bit tired.
The problem is, Ubisoft has got to get to the point, for Christ’s sake. I’ve been playing and loving every single piece of lore for 16 years. Games, comics, books, shorts, project legacy, branches in every possible direction. But after pulling the cord for almost two decades, interest has waned even to the hardened like me. Either you get to the point or this saga will be forgotten (paraphrase Valhalla)
For the rest, excellent analysis as always, che ve lo dico a fare. But I think I’m sure you feel that too. It would be interesting to me if you made a video about it (no I’m not a fanboy of any specific strand of the saga). Continuate così.
Is Roshan related with Altair? They have the same last name
I thought so too at first, but no, the name literally means "a child of no one". Son or daughter. I don't think Roshan had any children anyway.
@@The_1_Assassin ah, I thought they related. Shame thou, that would make a good connection with AC1. Answering or supporting the theory how Altair would get the memory disc
@@refianowallad6825 The connection could still be there, but we'll have to wait for more info besides the name.
I love, LOVE the ending, but... I'm a pessimist (or realistic due to precedents). Something tells me that Ubisoft isn't going to fallow up Basim story, or they aren't going to do it properly. And that will be the last straw for me; if they ditch Basim or do him dirty, I'm quitting this franchise for good. After 14 year of being a fan.
Not completely on board with the “Nehal is Loki’s memories exactly like Odin was for Eivor in Valhalla”. Yes, Loki’s memories are the trigger for Nehal’s existence, but I think she is more Basim’s subconscious instead of the memories themselves. Otherwise Basim’s comment in “The Last Chapter”, how unfamiliar is the way Eivor interacts with Odin, would not make sense.
Nehal is Loki himself
As far as I remembered of this video, he said "... in a different way". So, they are not exactly the same "relationship".
@@alial-hakeem9465 His "different way" is based on where they interact with their counterpart, the memory corridor for Eivor and in the real world for Basim. But in the last chapter Eivor speak to Odin in the real world, and Basim's comment comes when they talk sit next to each other (more a monologue than a dialogue), so the difference described in the video is no more and Basim should not be aware of how it was before.
How could it be Odin the jailor? Because Odin lives in scandinavia? Irak should be a another isu territory
Well, the Isu were wayyyy more advanced than we are know, and considering the state of globalisation and digitalisation we have already reached so far I'm sure Odin having access to a prison in the middle east wouldn't be too far fetched
Till in the 9 realms.. in Eviors' visions, Odin didn't rule all the terrories as in the normal lore of Norse Gods.
why does basim see loki as a female?
Loki is, in myth, genderfluid, and changes form multiple times. As the past two games had reasons for both masc/fem protags being in the game, I'm assuming it's both a reference to Loki changing gender, and to keep those masc/fem dynamics. Also it's a video game it doesn't matter
I hope that Basim's motives and intentions are genuinely aligned with helping the Assassins. My wish is for him to guide and teach them on effectively using the Lost Isu technology against Abstergo, prioritizing the Assassins' cause over personal gain.
I'm genuinely invested in Basim's character and doesn't take a villainous turn, which would force the Assassins to confront him. His character development, especially as seen in Mirage and Valhalla, reflects his deep value for family and his unwavering commitment to their safety. I hoped Basim can eventually find the peace, a sense of family, and reconciliation he deserves, particularly with Shaun, Rebecca, and William, given all that he has endured.
I also wonder about the fate of Odin. While Eivor, Odin's human vessel, has passed away, I can't help but ponder whether Odin's consciousness might persist, potentially taking hold of another person and aiding the Templars in their quest to prevent Ragnarok. Just my thoughts.
Not quite how Sages work, especially in the case of the Norse Isu; Their consciousness isn't transferable between bodies because, unlike with Aita, their DNA isn't integrated into the human genome, so it's basically a one way trip. As for Basim, it's clear he doesn't like the Templars, but he, with Loki's memories, obviously has his own goals and motives.
@@dragonbornexpress5650 Still I want him to be a good guy. He maybe Loki but I'm sure Basim's kind nature still resides inside him. I don't want Ubisoft to ruin such a good developed character. I already grew attached to Basim.
Been waiting on part 2 did u enjoy mirage feel like this is what assassin’s Creed Valhalla should’ve been
Fuck that.
I didn't think that the story is this deep.
However, it would be much better for everyone to make the story clearer and not like mysteries.
There are many points you have mentioned that I didn't notice while playing the story, and that made me a little upset. Many people who finished the story DO not know what the story truly is and how deep it is because of the fact that it is not clear enough.
Also, I would say that this is the same exactly situation with Valhalla which has a very deep story. A missing opportunity..
To the developers of the upcoming AC games, please... YOU CAN make stories so deep and Clear! as well.
Also, for the creator of this video, you have done a great analysis indeed!
Really well done man.
Thank you so much man!
The mirage I read into Mirage, the more of a let down it is. The ending was forced. There wasn’t enough ISU lore within the game. It wasn’t a complete game in terms of gameplay. It really is a filler game that adds nothing to the overall story. Also, enough with these misunderstood antagonist stories.
I think Bassim is destroyed and Loki is finally reborn
Nah
Actually Basim literally said that they “Came to a mutual understanding” and although furthering his own goals for next decade he also still tries to do good like he always wanted.
@@deltafive_o-first2417 "Mutual understanding" doesn’t mean becoming someone else! Basim remains himself, he just inherited the memories of the Isu Loki but he did not become Loki.. However, it is simple to understand! -_-
So are the Isu’s called Norse Isus, Egyptian Isus, Greek Isus, African Isus etc? Or is it just different Isus in different parts of the world during the time?
they are no greek, african, or norse back in their era. It's just Isu, but with different part of groups. Like Human nowadays that had different country, region, etc.
