Remember those iconic games before 2014? The OG, while dated was really unique for its time, the Ezio Auditore Trilogy that became the standard for the franchise, 3, that was very ambitious (probably too much) with it’s setting and story telling. Even 4, although it was the first time AC escaped from the base of what an assassin’s creed game is supposed to be.
Unity was the very first big misstep and since then the franchise has become unrecognisable, taking gameplay and mechanics from batman games and now went into unnecessarily long, repetitive and bloated RPGs than the real fans of the series couldn’t care less, especially since the core legacy mechanics of parkour and missions were gone. Not only that but they completely threw the modern day story on the trash since Desmond’s death…
AC was one of the last original franchises a triple A company gave us and now is just a Witcher wannabe.
“Oh wth are you talking about, it sells well” sales doesn’t equal quality. The last games are such a step backwards for the series.
They did dude. You’re just straight lying and the videos on YouTube and comparisons are all out there to see. Is either removed or stream lined so much… Shit, even Unity, which wasn’t a great game got those right.
Wtf asked for real mythology in AC? The Ezio trilogy and even 3 had it’s own mythology and pathos plus the way the Templar conspiracy was going behind all of that actually felt relevant. The hidden glyphs and clusters in the games gave it a X files feel unmatched to this day.
While I might or might not be one, no need to assume that someone is a dude.
I have played every single game and still have access to them. I cannot say that of many people.
If you wish to argue in good faith, never straight up assume someone is directly lying. Be an example for the internet and show good faith!
That said, that you think later games don’t have their own mythology, may be signs that you never played those games, because they also draw forth on those in-game mythologies. 'Course, I cannot say so, but if you haven’t, I suggest you to do so; and if you reject, then you have no right to complain, honestly. Complain once you’ve played through it.
In short: nuff.
