Ac Valhalla and odyssey is my top two, and syndicate is my third best ac game. Before u say something I done played unity, rouge and black flag, alone with AC2. Don’t mind either said I enjoy myself more playing odyssey and Valhalla is my favorite.

I constantly come back and play Unity whenever possible. I do love AC2 as well as Origins due to the story.

Honestly, due to my username, I've played and beaten every Assassin's creed game. I've loved every one of them. And on the Ac Shadow's backlash. In Origin's all those years ago, a blackman voiced Bayek. He had problems at first, but everyone liked the game. Also, Odyssey and Valhalla had a female main protagonist. They could romance women or men. So technically, they were Bi. But they sold billions, and no one cared. And once Ac Shadows trailer comes out with a blackman and a Japanese, " Oh no, it's the end of the world." And they can like male or females just like in Odyssey and Valhalla. It's Woke, Dei. Blah blah Even though months before hand they new a black samurai. Yusuke was going to be a protagonist. Not the main, that's Naoe, but they act like she doesn't count. Now they're doing a puttition, because Yusuke is in the game.

@@nthanngames3901 totally valid man. Glad you enjoy them!! 🙌🏻

@@silverback_gaming great choices!!!

Yeah... Parkour has been absolutely destroyed in the recent games. It's so sad to see. Hope the parkour in Shadows is half decent. Thanks for watching btw.

​@@TRENCH-COATUnity was peak after syndicate it went downhill origins parkour is not that bad but there is not a lot of places you can do parkour, but it's definitely a downgrade.

i heard mirage has good parkour

Parkour has been getting worse since the start. With each era Ubi has cut away a little bit more.

@@aleksamilutinovic1463unity parkour looked good but is really ass to play tho even a lot of people who spend a lot of time mastering parkour in ac in general said that unity looks good but is frustrating to play just recently replayed it and I got the same opinion

@@layzalafsal appreciate it 🙌🏻 thanks for watching!!

I agree! I hope Ubisoft nails it. Thanks for watching 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Ah man, I appreciate this comment so much. Thank you and thanks for watching! You got a favourite AC game?

@@TRENCH-COAT honestly I just started to reply the entire series, it used to be three due to nostalgia but due to my marathon probably brotherhood so far I really enjoyed the recruitment system

@@moonfireentertainment4995 Brotherhood was peak!!! The recruitment systems was legit.

​@@moonfireentertainment4995 me too 😁

Origins is the birth of the Brotherhood. Assassins (or hidden ones) have existed long before that game took place

@Chamillitary44 "The last Medjay Bayek and his wife Aya of Alexandria founded the order---then known as the Hidden Ones---at the tumultuous twilight of Ptolemaic rule to defend the common people against the Order of the Ancients." Look, you can lie to yourself all you want but this information is readily available online. Even if you don't want to take the time to go back to the games to find it, it has been documented by other gamers. The Hidden Ones were founded by Bayek. It's not possible for something to exist BEFORE it was founded.

@@demodrakkaen0316 you typed all that out just to say what I said. When I spoke about the hidden ones, I wasn't talking about the order, just the proto-assassins that will eventually come together to make up that order.

@@Chamillitary44 I was never talking about anything but the order of The Hidden Ones

Yeah I have a complicated relationship with AC origins! I love and hate it.

Love exploring in Assassins Creed. Thanks for watching!

I totally agree. I would love just more assassin stuff in my assassins creed game! Thanks for watching!

Thank you. rarely do I see an "actual" reason why one may dislike this game. Everyone else is heavily focused on Yasuke and him only which is weird in my opinion

@@LegendaryVizard93 100% agree. I really don't even give those comments any attention - cause they don't deserve a response. I just focus on the fundamentals of good game design. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I really appreciate it.

@@TRENCH-COAT no problem and thanks for understanding. Let this be a lesson to ALL developers in the future to just add Character Creator to avoid all this and make everyone happy 😂

@@LegendaryVizard93 lol 😂🙌🏻

That is such a cool idea!

Thank you!!!

AC3 is severely underrated! I loved the combat that Connor could do. Thanks for watching!

Yeah I guess it does... it's just difficult to not also blame it for where the franchise is today being the start of the RPG creeds.

@@TRENCH-COAT the game itself isn’t what made AC how it is now, it’s the lessons Ubi took from the game

@@texanarchy666 fair point... Ubi are terrible at taking the right lessons from each instalment.

Origins might be ok for you, as it's the birth of the Brotherhood (the Hidden Ones as they were originally called) but Odyssey always feels like you aren't playing Assassin's Creed. Even as a fan of RPG games, I have a hard time going from the older games to Odyssey or Valhalla.

The historic settings of Assassins Creed is definitely something that still keeps me intrigued in the games! Hope shadows is good entry point for you! Thanks for watching and subbing!

Yeah... why did they forget that parkour is why we liked the games in the first place! Hope they improve on it with shadows. Thanks for watching!

Completely get where you are coming from and I do mostly agree with you. This video is definitely my more positive/hopeful outlook on the situation. Obviously if I had a choice in the decision making I would have stuck with the Old AC formula and have games like Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla be their own thing - not associated to the AC franchise in anyway. Only time will tell if shadows dual protagonists work or not but I don't think we can definitively say it will or won't. Thanks for leaving your comment cause I do think it's a completely valid way of thinking about the situation. One thing we can all agree on is that Ubisoft screwed up with Origins by tieing it to the AC franchise.

Yeah, the very least the new creators could do is honour the legacy of the OG games… is that too much to ask. Thanks for watching!! Appreciate the comment.

That would be so great if they could make parkour more of a technically challenging experience. I remember when Unity came out and they improved on the parkour by giving you a up and down parkour button - I hoped they could keep building on that system instead we got the RPG creed that hardly include parkour. It's so sad!

In the classic games parkour is easy to do but there are levels above holding all the buttons and pushing a stick that are more effective and more fun. The Kenway games 'streamlined' parkour, leaving out a few things, but adding a parkour down. That parkour down was basically a drop from any height button, which I liked. Unity made parkour down the same as parkour up and made it all safe unless we demand suicide. RPGs took away any complexity we had

Unity was peak. Thanks for watching

Thanks for the sub and I appreciate the kind words. Busy cooking up the next batch of content 🙌🏻🔥 Anything in particular you’d be interested in seeing commentary on?

@@TRENCH-COAT Sick can’t wait too see it

Thank you so much for watching and the sub!! New vids coming soon.

we liked to live in those eras. now they are like playable maps

Totally fair! Ubisoft games are often on crazy discounts as well quite soon after a games launch so waiting is never a bad idea!

Shadows seems to throw that idea out the window and just run with a pure fantasy. The issue is, it's not advertised, marketed as such and they claim it is historical in the interviews. This is a common trend with Ubisoft Quebec but this time it has reached a point where it's found to be distasteful and disrespectful.

Thanks for subbing! Do you have a favourite Assassin's Creed game?

Thanks, I appreciate the sub! Black flag was a game I had not hype for but ended up loving. Origins world is so stunning. Thanks for watching.

AC3 was and still is so underrated. Thanks for watching!

@@TRENCH-COAT agreed

Agreed, Agreed and debatable... hehe thanks for watching!

@@TRENCH-COAThonestly I’m hesitant to put origins as best combat. But it’s changed so much over the years it’s just hard to say.

@@patmatt1993yeah I’d also struggle to decide… I really enjoy AC 3’s combat but it is really only flashy without alot of depth.

What's good about origins combat and skill tree is that it has no power bar, you can use any skill as many times you want or you can use any gadget because it has ammunition and you aren't limited to 4 uses like valhalla.​@@patmatt1993

In my opinion I enjoyed the combat of Assassin’s Creed III the most. The counters of two (maybe three enemies, I don’t remember exactly) but it made me feel cool as hell.

Totally agree! Super excited for his story.

Appreciate it. Thank you for watching!

@@TRENCH-COAT Assassin’s Creed Revelations

@@tj2saucy revelations blew my mind with that ending!

Thanks for the sub and thanks for watching!!!

Same but with Origins and Black flag 😂 Followed by Unity and Odyssey hand in hand.

Totally fair and valid opinion 🙌🏻

Me too 🎉

Which type of fan are you? Thanks for watching 🙌🏻

Agreed Been a fan since AC1 released. I pre ordered and played every single one Read all the books and comics, watched the movie at release, even played all the mobile games, DS game, and PSP games. Even have the board game. I love this franchise and all the games. Already pre ordered Shadows. People been hating ever since 2. Most forget how angry people got when it leaked that Altair wasn't the star of 2. I remember all of it. People can hate all they want. I'll just enjoy the franchise like I always have

@@aliquidgaming1068 AC has been such an influential and meaningful part of my life. I don’t think I could ever let it go tbh. I am super excited and hopeful for shadows. Thanks for watching!

People like what they like and all can voice their opinions. If you like every part each game, that's great, but not all of us are that lucky

@@WideOldDan my point is people been complaining about everything about this franchise since day one. Here are some that I remember. People were upset about Altair not being the protagonist of 2 before the reveal trailer. People were not happy with 3 and the lack of cities to parkour in and I specifically remember people hating Conor. That changed as time went on. I remember people complaining that 4 would have pirates and constantly said Edward wasn't a real assassin. That changed over time. People were upset rogue was made for previous gen consoles when unity came out. People also use to hate the unity parkour and Piss Pot himself. That also changed over time. People also use to say syndicate was a return to form and that Jakob was funny and reminded them of ezio. That also all changed as time went on. The AC fanbase is overly reactionary and quick to judge. Can almost guarantee the RPG AC games will be seen as fun and good games, and that Odyssey and Valhalla will be seen as good spin offs to the franchise. They'll eventually become beloved by fans. Also I remember people loving brotherhood but as time went on it became clear(it is still an amazing game) people realized it was essentially a DLC for 2. It's like how "fans" (they aren't fans they're tourists of this franchise) are saying every AC had you play as someone from the country the game is set in. Not true. Revelations you're an Italian in Constantinople. In 3 you're half native American and half European. In 4 you're Welch in the Caribbean. In liberations your Creole or Haitian and the game is in America. In Odyssey you're Spartan and most the game is in Athens. In Valhalla you're Norse and spend like 95% of the game in Europe, France and Ireland. Only in Norway for like 30 minutes. Or how the franchise is closer to being historically accurate....also wrong. In 1 DR Vidic tells Desmond how the Animus isn't glitching and why events play out differently than what he is taught and why certain figures are alive when textbooks state they died. He explains how history was written by templar's to guide humanity. In 2 you literally fist fight the pope. In 3 Connor is literally capable of killing a full grown bear with his hands and in the DLC uses ISU artifacts to fight king Washington...... In syndicate Karl Marx is in England during a time when he wasnt even there. In the ezio games leonardo is way WAY younger than what he was in real life. Machevelli is also an assassin when his real life politics and ethics perfectly align with the templar's. In syndicate DLC, Jack the ripper is a rogue assassin. The list goes on. Most people's complaints against the games typically are over blown and based on nothing. Like I said most these people aren't fans. They're just tourists who maybe played one game if that and think all the games are or should be like that one they played. People been saying AC is dead since 3. Been saying no one buys these games anymore since then. So as a life long fan, most the complaints are meaningless and will change given time. Just like they always do

@@SantanaMiller thanks for subbing! You got a favourite Assassin’s Creed game?

Yeah I see why people aren’t all happy. Ubisoft Quebec always seem to make the most controversial choices. Hope the game ends up being good!

AC 2 was peak… 🔥🔥🔥

One can hope 😂🙌🏻

Great choices! Thanks for watching!

I completely agree with you. Stealth in AC has never been genre defining. I think AC unity might be the game in the series that best nails stealth, adding a crouch button as well as bustling crowds that you can easily blend into and disappear. It's more about the idea of being an assassin and the game allowing me to get immersed into those situations. I also just gravitate more to a stealthy approach than a loud approach. I honestly wish Ubisoft could've built on the foundation set by Unity rather than what we have today.

Oh and thanks for watching!

TBH that’s the only reason I continue to play the RPG Creeds - cause I love the historical settings! Glad you love them too. Its definitely the best aspect of the Creed games.

The nostalgia I have for the ezio trilogy is undeniable! I absolutely adore AC 3 - I think it's super underrated and although Unity had a rocky launch it's the AC game that I think best immerses the player in the fantasy of being an Assassin. Thanks for watching!

Appreciate it! Thanks for watching. You got a favourite AC game ?

brotherhood without a doubt

@@ahmedalafoo4396 definitely in my top 3!

@@Pencyo welcome to the beautiful but complicated AC fandom. Thanks for watching 🙌🏻🙌🏻

I think creative license is applicable and reasonable to the creation of the game's world. Ghost of Tsushima for example is over-stylised for effect. So I think cherry blossoms in spring (if it makes the world better) is worth it.

Cherry blossoms in spring are good and wonderful. But only if you don't even notice the autumn fruits dancing and rolling in front of the cherry blossoms. 春の桜はよい、素晴らしい。 ただしその桜の目の前にいながら秋の果物が舞い転がる様子を気にさえとめないならば。

Brotherhood is definitely in my top 3. I really hope AC shadows brings back the stealth in a way that OG fans can resonate with because I also can't enjoy the recent rpg creeds . Thanks for watching!

​@@TRENCH-COAT Nice video brother. If u keep making such videos u will surely get more Views and Subs. Subbed 👍

@@ToadSageTroller Thanks!!! Working on the next one right now.

Definitely an interesting and valid take! Appreciate you taking the time to voice your opinion. I think you don’t get to where you are as a franchise without making creative choices to continually elevate and refresh the formula - which inadvertently does anger a small subset of fans. I think most outcry has been due to the games having the AC name but then only 10% of the game being about the assassin’s and the creed. Which I firmly believe is not too much to ask. You can have a viking game but have the protagonist also be an assassin or the core narrative be more centred around the assassin’s. I think you can reinvigorate a franchise without stripping it of its identity. You don’t go into a tony hawk game expecting to never use a skateboard and I don’t go into an assassin’s creed game expecting to not use a hidden blade.

I personally like that you have only one choice. It means they can create characters with hopefully more depth than previous entries in the AC series.

I rather take women as a character than that garbage gender selection shit which screwed this franchise lore

Hahaha

And what’s wrong with Shadows?

@@Highonlife24 A terrible premise of union between Yasuke and Naoe, a bad representation of the creed, Ubisoft stealing artwork, Ubisoft getting Japanese culture horribly wrong.... no thanks will pass.

U gotta change your perspective about the series honestly each era is different, this RPG era is more about explorations and immersion into culture and beautiful atmosphere of the massive worlds, older ones was about dense city traversal, and then ac4 ac3 is more about explorations and parkour, u just gotta accept this and not have expectations so high, shadows is odyssey 2.0 but better mechanics and parkour, odyssey is amazing for exploring so shadows will be the same, going back to one city is boring

@@BrokenVeil1020 How is Yasuke and Naoe working together bad? And how is Japanese culture not represented well in trailers that last for barely 10 minutes?

@@Highonlife24 The premise is bad. Yasuke burns her village and kills her people, but she somehow talks him into joining her to fight injustice, leaving the former things unaddressed. Wasn't explained very well and they have very little cause to work side by side. Ubisoft got many other things wrong with the depiction of the seasons, the villages, cultural behavior, what Samurai would and would not do in a duel, etc. It's pretty well documented by Japanese tubers. The last major thing being that Japanese are saying Yasuke was not Samurai, despite Ubisoft's assertions he was. I think in general it is the way this game has been presented. The idea wasn't bad but the execution of the whole production was.

As far as I have it they actually do have a few Japanese historians working on the project.

@@TRENCH-COAT well then Ubisoft wasn’t even listening to them if normal gamers noticed these mistakes lmao.

why do that. two wrongs don't make a right.

I feel like your trying to be offensive with your comment. You do realize that the Development team that "created" this game are majority white right? Black people literally dont have anything to do with this yet i see people trying to be hostile toward black people and black culture like we asked them to do it

@@LegendaryVizard93 yeah some people have no filter... it's ridiculous

Odyssey is a controversial opinion but a completely valid one! I also gotta admit that Odyssey is tons of fun to play, way better than AC Valhalla. Thanks for watching!

Never played Odyssey myself but Ive been told that stealth is a totally viable and fun playstyle there, it might take some grinding to get your character up tho. If I ever pick that game up, Id try it, at least to see if getting to the fun stealth breaking point keeps me enagged

@@TRENCH-COAT I realized that my interest in AC comes from exploring historical locations and not necessarily the game aspects. It doesn't matter then if it's stealth or RPG. I just like being in a historic setting

@@TRENCH-COAT Ac Valhalla was amazing

That is definitely a possibility

It depends how they do.

@@Highonlife24 so far they made everyone fight and stole material and have had to apologize

@@Strictly_Jake What do you mean by that?

@@Highonlife24 everyone is fighting over the game and ubisoft just apologized for stealing the flag or logo of a Japanese reenactment troop, demonstrating lack of care for the people they are using the history of at worst, and lazy design at best. Not only that, mirage did not play like the first game or early sequels, so I don't think the game will satisfy all crowds. I think Ubisoft needs to stop trying too appeal to everyone with each release.

@@54032Zepol you stay mad can’t comprehend playing a game where you gotta have your numbers on enemy’s heads cause you can’t comprehend not feeling like your making progress in an empty open world full of fetch quest and enemy ai as brain dead as you ohh no I need to see numbers and red flashy colours otherwise I don’t understand what I’m doing that your message your giving by defending this shit

I think we can respect both sides and accommodate both.

@TRENCH-COAT it's possible I just don't see Ubi actually putting forth the effort. I would love to be surprised but in the current state as an OG fan I'm not willing to risk $70-200 for what has not been fun for me the last 10 years. To each there own

@@Bojaxxx totally agree with that. I would also not advise to buy on release. Wait a couple of months and get it dirt cheap. Try it then and see if you like it… from an old school fans perspective I’ll definitely try and let people know whether its worth getting or not. Thanks for the comment 🙌🏻
