Isu is pronounced "E-Sue" Eivore is Odin reincarnated Tyr is sigurd reincarnated The reader is Desmond Basim is loki reincarnated You can really tell who didn't finish the game haha
@@xefirez5697 it's hinted during the final battle with basim making claims about eivore hurting his child and the final secret ending cutscene confirms that they put there DNA in the life tree for later rebirth
The arcs you do through Valka will explain ALOT. Eivor as a boy was attacked by a wolf, who I think is Fenrir or somehow correlates with him. That's why during your fight with him he asks to see your neck and laughs at your scar.
Not sure about the wolf but the Ravens definitely signify Eivor's connection to the Crow-Father himself, and the scar hid a mark that shows you are a reborn Isu, Basim pretty much laughs because he realizes that he should've also been paying attention to you like he did Sigurd
Yeah. It’s kinda clear thanks to the asgard quest. The three women represented the “Future” calculations, before The Reader took over. It calculated that “Odin” would be killed by Loki’s son during the collapse, then the plot of asgard takes place where Isu Odin looks for a way to save his life while the ISu are suffering a war against the humans rebellions. Valka’s potions were just magical animus-
@@andrewmeyer3599 spoiler alert: I think basim is loki. It a odd comment to say to eivor. When eivor don't know who dasim son is. I think eivor was supposed to be Odin or is Odin. I guess he rejected odin in the main game. I think it all connect.
Basim is the genetic reincarnation of the Isu Loki, he appeared 'mad' to Eivor (Odin) and Sigurd (Tyr) because he had come to realise this and attacked Eivor i.e. Odin in rage for his son/family but also frustration because neither Eivor nor Sigurd realised who they once were. In myth, Loki's children are depicted as 'monsters' or 'beasts', I don't think they're going to be Isu. I have a feeling they'll be more like machines or something we haven't yet seen.
@John Mick yeah it’s definitely broken game, was stuck in a few glitches myself. Needed to load old saves or completely skip side quests that didn’t work. It’s a great story but unity had less bugs
"Basim had been hooked to the machine for thousands and thousands of years" Sure he was... because although we spend most of the game fighting Christian's, we somehow predate christ.
I feel like the reader is definitely Desmond. It would be a massive comeback for him, and that the fans love him to much, people won't complain if he does officially come back
I feel like you might’ve missed something in the game? The Asgard/Jottunhein missions maybe. But Basim is literally Loki reincarnated, Eivor is Odin, Sigurd is Tyr, Halfdan is Thor, etc. Basim isn’t trying to reunite his Isu comrades. His family he wants to reunite with is his son Fenrir, who Odin imprisoned, and his lover Alethia. I literally put the Basim/Loki connection as soon as I encountered him in the Asgard arc. They look identical with the same voice actor.
@@rockandrolldude22 and odin in game that evor see is just a reminder that he is odin they trying to wake him up evor never realised that he is odin all along in the game and basim know hes old life as loki
@@ognjendimitrijevic9959 I hope they elaborate more on it. I mean I already know they gave us the story and I understand most of it. but just to give us more context and in-depth to it.
OHHHHH. BASIM WANTED TO KILL EIVOR BECAUSE HE SAW ODIN IN EIVOR. AND ODIN TRAPPED FENRIR. AND BASIM IS LOKI. SO EIVOR IN A PAST LIFE TRAPPED BASIMS SON!!! OMG ITS JUST NOW CLICKING!?!?!?!?
I would say Basim and Loki share the same memories kind of like how Layla was able to know exactly who basim was because she lived through Evior so I think basim is both Loki and him self
In Norse Mythology loki was bound and left to suffer , its possible that Baim is just a pigment of his self like what is to eivor and sigurd, so the one that killed the Isu was a thousands of years ago, so its correct or Basim was trapped in the simulation that it felt thousand of years ago, thus an exagerration most people do it.
The scene for collecting all the anomalies feels so important to the game's story. "Secret" endings and hiding information THAT important behind collectibles is obnoxious.
@@cookiemonster1787 I don't know sadly I have read a blog in which they said the next AC may take place in Syria - Arabia with Basim bringing back some of the old mechanics of the game. Being more stealthy (assassin) and less fight face to face (fighter). But maybe its all bullshit 😛 they make so much money from this franchise and their DLC's that i don't think they really care about how much "Assassin" you are in the story 😂
@@jkx3rd Ok, now who is Lokis wife? That blue lady. Loki and Basim are the same person, therefore his wife is the blue lady. Come on dude, pay more attention.
@@justinlittle4534 Loki and Basim aren't the same entirely. Loki lives inside of basim but he isn't basim. That's the same reason why Eivor sees and speaks with Odin
@@justinlittle4534 all of Valhalla is a simulation to help eivor understand the Isu better, the blue lady is Alethia in a form that would make sense to the Norse and their mythology
At the end of the day, the story development and flow fell short. It may turn out to be a great story, but if one only played the main quest as everyone was saying to do, they would miss out on a huge chunk of the story and the part that ties it all together. I finished only the main quest last night and hopped online today to find out what am I missing because the story was stupid and completely disjointed. Turns out the side quests are part of the main story and little in the game pushes you in their direction. I would have walked away from the game thinking this was one of the dumbest stories I've played through in a long time.
That’s part of why I love Assassins creed. There is more to the story. Try to finish all quests. I liked Odyssey more but Valhalla answered many questions.
I also think it may be possible that Loki was the first assassin. Odin would sometimes use his powers to be selfish and cruel. Because 'he knew best' what was good for humanity. Reminds me of the templars..
You can't blame Basim / Loki. Odin proved during the game AND during the metaphorical visions that he was a giant douchebag who harmed Basim / Loki family and felt no compassions even for his most trusted follower Tyr.
I wanted to take note of something, when Basim (Loki) was making the pledge that he will bring his family back he said children. I just remembered in Norse mythology his children referred to not only Fenrir but Jorganmander (World Serpent) and the goddess giant Hel.
In my opinion Basim is reincarnation of Loki, so are Eivor and Sigurd (Odin and Tyr). So when Basim talks of his Family he means Fenris and Angrboda(Athletheia). Cause during the fight Basim always says Eivor will pay for what he has done to his son....
You’re actually right. That’s exactly what it is. Odin and tyr and the other aesir isu transferred their minds into the tree of life to be reborn again in another time (eivor and all the others) basim is one of the few that remembers his isu life clearly, which is why he refers to it so vividly. Possibly because his life as a hidden one and their extensive knowledge of the isu, he was probably able to remember his past life. I dont think basim is a bad character but a morally grey one.
@@tito2471 Yes. But having said that, Basim etc. are all Isu. So the story of Loki, Odin etc. doesn't matter, it's really the story of the Isu, behind the Gods they take on, that's the important factor. So the question is who is Loki's children really? Other Isu, Hybrids, Humans? The Gods/People they reincarnated into, aren't important, the Isu backstory is.
@@LeonardoDaVinciLulz Yeah, I wonder how Loki is going to find his children.. I can't imagine they were allowed to be put into the life tree... I am really looking forward to see the Isu story becoming bigger and bigger.
@@LeonardoDaVinciLulz yeah im also very interested to see where they go. Im happy that the isu story is back to where it used to be. Full of mystery and intrigue.
Dude. This is just explaining what happened at the end of the game. I have more indepth videos and the reader, the isu, and what it means for the future of AC coming soon. I wanna give the people who get the game at Christmas to play it before going indepth with my breakdowns
@@DaStupidGoose mate... I got the game a week early... I've played through every single arc. Every single side quest and I was the first person to get up an animus anomaly. This video was a basic explan of the ending of the modern day as to not spoil it completely for everyone else.
@@BPRGaming you can see in the we comments alot people feel like there's gaps and missed info in your review I understand this might be your way of tiptoeing around spoilers but it's not coming off that way
If you dont know what Basim meant with his son here is my theory. Basims son is Fenrir, cuz Basim is actually Loki. Fenrir was then almost killed by Odin(Eivor). In the Story of Valhalla Basim (Loki) wants revenge
In the next game, who knows. While reviving the Isu (which we suspect will happen listening to Basim's words), even layla and desmond can be revived. their minds are still intact, they can use the phoenix project.
Loki in the game is shown as a researcher who loves knowledge and his wife shared most of his ideals. He was okay with humans and other beings Isu believed to be inferior but Odin and other Isus hated them and this led to a clash between them. To be honest, Loki and his wife just wanted their family and still want that, he was mad at Eivor because he felt absurd at the fact that the one who did all these bad things to his family forgot about all this. His madness was valid but still, he respected Eivor.
I don't know if Basim(Loki) will be the new modern day protagonist. He's more of the new main antagonist in the modern day, like Juno was. We have to wait for the new Assassin's Creed game to get that confirmed. Unless we get that answered in the upcoming DLCs. And just a small correction Basim was inside "the grey" for over thousand years, not thousands of years. And he just want to bring back his family, not the entire Isu race.
I get where you're coming from mate. I agree he will be the new modern day antagonist, but then we also get to control him at the end fo the game so that's why I was throwing it out there :)
It is obvious that the reader is Desmond, don't be like that... "I think I have a Theory blah blah" whenever it's so obvious that it's right in front of your face lmao 😂
You also have no idea how to say some names correctly like at all lmao can't blame it on your accent either, cause it doesn't force you say Isu wrong or say Sigurd wrong... You literally say Siguard.. there is no "a" in the word so you shouldn't be screwing up his name so badly... Sigurd isn't a damn guard lmao so don't call him Siguard when it's Sigurd.
Good effort but there's so many things wrong with this. In order to understand the Eivor/Sigurd/Basim connections you have to relate it back to when we've seen Sages in the past, aka reincarnations of Aita. The same thing is going on here; there's just a lot more 'Sages' of different Isu than we thought (specifically the eight plus Loki that we see in the hidden truth cutscene). If you played the Asgard/Jotenheim arcs, you would not only understand that Eivor, Sigurd and Basim are reincarnations (Sages) of Odin, Tyr and Loki respectively, you would also understand the motive behind Loki's desired revenge against Odin; Odin killed Loki and Alethia/Angrboda's son; Fenrir (represented in the dream world as a giant wolf. The true Isu nature of Fenrir is unknown). We also know Loki and Alethia had other children. THIS is what he means when he says he wants to bring his family back together in the modern day; not the Isu as a whole (also Juno's dead thanks to the Phoenix Project, that plot was dropped in 2018). You'd also understand Loki and Alethia's relationship if you listened to the dialogue during the anomalies. And in regards to the Reader; I don't understand how you missed that the Reader is obviously Desmond; he has the same voice and references it in the dialogue. This isn't ambiguous; it's all but confirmed. You'll notice that the resemblance to Adam and Eve also resolves the plotline introduced in the Truth segment of AC Brotherhood. Also Basim hasn't been trapped in the gray for 'thousands and thousands of years'; more like just over a thousand. Eivor was around in the late 800s, we're now in 2020.
My theory: is that Eivor might actually be Odin, this will explain a lot of things. First of all Isu don’t have power to communicate through mind (as Odin does to Eivor), second is that when Basim says “Look down to the deepest of your memories” Eivor in the final fight “MY SON” is the reflection of how Odin and Mad one betrayed the son of Loki “The giant wolf” in the quest Bound to fate, Binding to Fate, Cheating fate. And also... in those quests when Eivor drinks potions he can see through aprons memories, but, as we learn later, ( by collecting the pieces of anomalies) that these visions are nothing but a poor reflection of actual memories, it’s that the Odins memories were inside of Eivor head all along. I’m tired of typing but so you know that these are not that half of the points to my theory. If you are interested message me on discord Shesse#7811
Remember I’m in the lady asgaurd mission when the future tellers or whoever they were showed that when eivor altered his fate that it would ripple through midguard for time to come. Well this is that happening when eivor cheated his fate it caused all these ripple affects through mid guard that’s what we are seeing now
It was pretty clear they were reincarnated. Sacrificing something so you can be remembered by the tree, and live on after death. Although I thought Loki was gonna be Sigurd, forgot about basim. And it’s pretty cool how they hinted Loki was basim
OK we all know that the reader is Desmond but remember that subject 16 cut scene, where is subject 16 tells Desmond to find Eve and that the key is in her DNA. And more Importantly when Juno says when cross the other side she will be waiting for you. I feel like I’m forgetting some thing or were missing parts of the puzzle here help me out guys.
Crazy theory, but what if time travel somehow becomes a thing (or a simulation through the Gray) and Desmond and Layla become Adam and Eve from the Isu times
Remember In the last asguard mission when the future tellers or whoever they were showed eivor his future but they said “ this will ripple through midguard for eternity” meaning by cheating fate he opened up all these timelines. That’s what I believe we are now is all these timelines opened because eivor or “ Odin” cheated his fate
Loki is basim he has the same voice and he looked almost exactly the same and sigurd is Tyr they both lost there arms and Odin was the cause the great betrayal just like Eivor was the main cause for Sigurd loosing his arm by not stopping his brother u see all the reincarnates as u go and the more they show them selves the more u see them as the same people from the Asgard gameplay from ur visions and Desmond is the reader of course and I’m thinking the Jótun that Loki loved is the woman in the staff because he calls her love and already knew her sum how but I don’t know for sure cuz I don’t know how she would become one with the staff maybe it’s not her but they had to know each other before they all died and the black marks on the neck explains that secret ending you see that black mark on multiple characters necks when ur going thru the game they are probably Isu blood lines that are like Eivor and others and Eivors might be gone cuz it was bitten off by the wolf at the beginning
Valhalla made me really confused. I really despise Basin, and now what we are to see basin = Loki in Bagdad? Makes zero Sense. Not to mention that there is no guide in the right direction to the story, and now I have basim doing anomalies. I can't like him since he is Loki and my hero is Eivör, that's who we are connected with. Really confused.
i knew this would be her last game. she had a trilogy just like demond (yes i know he got 5 games but brotherhood and revelations were more like side stories and not main entries thus why they weren't numbered 3 and 4). hell her final fate is even the same as desmonds. but this time we didn't have to wait almost 10 years to find out.
Bassim is Loki and wants to re-unite with his children, when he was fighting Eivor in the ISU lap, he said "for my son" the same thing Loki said when he was fighting Odin in the Nilhaim mission
The reader is Desmond He died when he actived the eye and his personality and Self where transferred to the simulation and he started to read possible ends of the world and how to save them
She went to slow it down ( can t shut it down cause there would be no radiation shield ) and found the reader ( probably desmond ) and chose to not slow it down cause the reader told her that another catastrophe would apear and would end world so she chose to die from radiations and stay in the same place as the reader and find another solution (not as you said that by slowing it down there would be no protection )
Basim is Loki reincarnated through the sage program that he snuck into. Eivor is the sage of Odin and thats why Basim/Loki was trying to kill him for revenge of his son (The whole son thing is explained in the Asgaurd missions)
The first thing I thought when meeting the Reader was "That's definitely Desmond!" I only thought that, because of him constantly looking through end of the world scenarios.
Man, you're a genius! How could I never thought about them becoming Adam and Eve before? I think you might be just right brother. If you remember, subject 16 told Desmond to find Eve, why only Eve? Damn, that got me thinking now...
I think the DLC of this game will explain who the isu version and who the viking real-life version of fenrir is, cause in the mythology fenrir was the wolf that was gonna kill odin (and therefor eivor). Now i believe that eivors death and how he came to rest in vinland by being killed by fenrir (maybe a sage or a isu-human hybrid) will happen and thats what basim is searching for, thats why he need eivors memories. He will use eivors memories of his son fenrir to find him in that era, maybe see if he got hooked up to yggdrasil or something else of isu-origin and see what happened to his son. Another dlc might explain how he will get his wife out from the stagf
It’s a long shot but I think they’re going to go back in time to when Desmond died and he won’t save the world, he’ll survive the catastrophe and he’ll enter the Animus during the apocalypse and explore the memories of the next character, whoever it may be, or it could be the end 🤷🏼♂️
Holy crap now I understand everything, with your help my friend, the clip of the gods is ragnarok, odin and everyone where trying to pass their DNA to humans, so thats why they reincarnated as eivor and loki as basim, thats why so many references in the game where explicitly highlighting the idea of reincarnating, so thats why loki as basim complains about their kids to eivor at the end because they are the reincarnated of the gods
I might have missed something, but when layla enters the yggdrasil machine and basim/loki escapes, shouldnt svala/freyja be there too? Did loki manage to kick her out so that her mind went back out to a probably dead body?
It seems that Sigurd didnt knew that Basim being a Isu would make that he would not be in a complete darkness as he says to Eivor, since Valka's mother is a human and do not have a Isu blood, this made her frozen, but Basim not
He also has a daughter, Hel. I’m curious as to why they didn’t mention Jörmungandr and Hel in the game because Jörmungandr plays a role in Ragnarok and Hel is the ruler of Niflheim. I want to know what happened to them. Did Odin killed them as well before Fenrir?
@@mirandagoldstine8548 in mythology Fenrir swallows Odin and is then killed by Odins son Vidarr. Jormungandr the world serpent is killed my Thor. But as the sergeant falls a cloud of poison mist engulfs Thor and after just 9 steps Thor falls dead. Hel as far as I know wasn’t at Ragnarok and she lives.
I have a head canon that Lugh the Ploymath, the leader of the Tuatha Dé Dannan/Celtic Isu was the Architect of the Yggdrassil/Sage project. I'm Irish and Lugh in our mythology was reincarnated as his son Cú Chulainn, it's a weird dynamic as Cú Chulainn is his own person but is also his father/Lugh. It has similar dynamics as to how Eivor is Odin but Eivor is Eivor also same with the other sages.
If you have completed all the Asgard story and missions you would know that eivor is actually a reincarnation of oden and basim is actually a reincarnation of lokie and it gets a lot deeper than that as well but it all starts 2 make sense (idk how 2 spell all the names and shi right but u pick up what I'm putting down)
My theory is that the spirit of eivor actually represents fenrir aswell. I couldnt figure out who who it represents but it makes sense, and I know shes not lokis son. But the wolf kissed was responsible for Odin's death. Just like the seers foretold in asgard.
Eivore 847 : Forging "The Way of freedom" Altair 1165 - 1257 : Set us "Creed" free for everyone Ezio 1459 - 1524 : - Built the "Brotherhood" - Strip all assassin's equipment and leaving them behind and live with own freedom life like Eivore Well, the legendary Assassin's that huge Influence finally found not In Greek but in Barbaric people who known as the Vikings...
Since most of the ancient mythologies are taken as a part of AC Series.....I think the next AC game will less likely be Hindu(Indian) mythology or AC would end with the morden world catastrophe or feudal japan though most likely Ancient Rome would be the choice cuz most of mythologies are from west so it is easy to merge different mythologies.... but as for an Asian mythology it would be more difficult cuz merging mythologies from two different continents is least of the directors concern.... comment if you have any other thoughts....
Good overview. Would be nice to have a deeper breakdown. I’m familiar with the ending but I wanted to see someone else’s take on it considering not a lot of people have finished the game and some haven’t bought it yet. I think Basim (Loki) will attempt to bring his children back into the modern day so I feel like some modern day missions are going to come back. Much like Desmond fighting some Abstergo men. Speaking of Abstergo, I feel like they will make their return into the next game. It’s really hard to see where this will go because Loki will always be tied to Odin story wise, unless Minerva (Gunlodr) takes his place My only worry for the franchise now is setting. The only obvious location is China/Japan but for some reason I really don’t want them to go there. I feel like I’ve seen enough of that setting. They’ve done a lot of good places, and going back into Greece or Italy would be just repeating itself. I think they’ve started the beginning of the end of the franchise. And I hope they have. Another one or two good story games and they can finish the series with justice
Cheers mate! Thanks for your insight! I hope they have something planned for Loki in the future! And as for a deeper breakdown. I'm gonna try and create a series breaking down the isu moments within Valhalla!
My guy its been the beginning of the end since AC3 when they killed Desmond lol, story wise AC has fallen apart, they don't know what they're doing anymore, and to further support this they toss Juno away in a comic book?!?! Lmao like we really played what 6 or 7 games leading up to her as the villain and thats how she ends up? Its a joke now honestly and I hate saying that because this was my favorite game at one point 😔 as for setting who the fuck knows, AC isn't even an AC game anymore, its just a massive RPG that looks pretty on a screen lol
@@patrickmacasaet3493 I know where you’re coming from 🤣 I read the comics too and thought the exact same about Juno. I’ve still got hope for it, but I’m glad they did nothing more with Ezio because now I can play that trilogy in peace knowing it’s a masterpiece. I do, however, think AC did what it had to do to survive. Never in a million years would I think Assassins creed would be on the face of next gen consoles lol. Valhalla does take it back to Assassins in everything but the gameplay but (unpopular opinion here) Valhalla was not that good. Felt far too bloated and some story arcs sent me too sleep
Mirage seems focused on the Persian empire and Ubisoft has left a few other clues to where their going on Layla's computer. China, as a setting, has basically been confirmed in game and through Ubisoft's road map but who knows how long that'll take to get to.
Off norse pagan lore that seemed like a reinterpretation of ragnarok and odin denied loki because he brought on ragnarok with his two sons fenrir and jormangander. It also should be noted that in ragnarok thor killed jormangandor but venom dripped from the serpents mouth killing thor and odin was slayed by fenrir as to which he swallows the sun. Loki kills heimdall which is shown in that secret ending
I Wander If Fenrir and other norse Monsters existed like the Greek ones the Isu made. The Ragnarok I can understand is a reference to the solar destruction. Maybe Fenrir is one alegory to something terrible Loki did.
They put their genes into the thing in the cutscene to be reincarnated Odin as eivore,Sigurd is tyr, basim is Loki the visions is remembering their past life in the asguard story u betray tyr,in the start of the main game u see a vision of you betraying Sigurd(Odin letting fenir bite Tyrs hand off) you tie Loki/basims kid down and betray him so that’s why basim wanted to kill eivore
Basim wasn't hooked up to that ISU machine for thousands and thousands of years. Eivor hooked him up to it in the 9th century. So that's for around 1200 years or so.
You need to play the Asgard Arc of the game and, after that, collect all the memory fragments left scattered around the world by Basim. That will unlock a short video in AC: Valhalla that will give you the answer to that. It's quite similar to AC 2's The Truth.
@@NANA-lt6hd I will not run arouns the map for microtransactions and lose 10hours for 5sec videos. I have seen the videos you are talking about and that doesnt explain how basim is Still loki in mind. How he joined the assassins. Why he manuoulated sigurd and all these
@@ChrisEzio Those are collectibles not micro-transactions. And, as I have said, you need to also play the Asgard Arc of the game as well. And, I mean, to also pay attention to the dialogue in that arc. But for convenience's sake, I would suggest to watch the interaction between Odin and Mimir again. It's explained how it works albeit in a more fantasy-like way since that's the way Eivor's mind could comprehend it all.
if you played the asgard quests you’d know that basim is the reincarnation of loki and eivor=odin and sigurd = tyr , and he wants revenge for what they did to his son Fenrir in the last mission
Ubisoft still has to explain how Eivor ended up being buried in Vinland (North America) after all the events that occurred. Obviously they lived their life before dying in NA for a chunk of time.
@@fear_me_plz.117 yeah I know. I’ve finished the whole game, i wrote that because in this video he didn’t know why basim attacks him and I was like, what? You finished it and you don’t know?! This video was just a bad review.
Eivor is the reincarnation of odin, valkas mum was the reincarnation of Freyja and sigurd is the reincarnation of tyr I havent worked out who thor is but yeh. I can safely assume that the reason basim, the reincarnation of loki will get his children back through the abstergo phoenix project, thats why he wants to go to Abstergo and take over the assasins. This is what I have come up with.

The arcs you do through Valka will explain ALOT. Eivor as a boy was attacked by a wolf, who I think is Fenrir or somehow correlates with him. That's why during your fight with him he asks to see your neck and laughs at your scar.
Not sure about the wolf but the Ravens definitely signify Eivor's connection to the Crow-Father himself, and the scar hid a mark that shows you are a reborn Isu, Basim pretty much laughs because he realizes that he should've also been paying attention to you like he did Sigurd
Yeah. It’s kinda clear thanks to the asgard quest. The three women represented the “Future” calculations, before The Reader took over. It calculated that “Odin” would be killed by Loki’s son during the collapse, then the plot of asgard takes place where Isu Odin looks for a way to save his life while the ISu are suffering a war against the humans rebellions.

I think basim is loki. It a odd comment to say to eivor. When eivor don't know who dasim son is. I think eivor was supposed to be Odin or is Odin. I guess he rejected odin in the main game. I think it all connect.
Maybe Fenir gave eivor the mark, and that is why Eivor gets it too. Fate is a big story plot in this game, ask Sigard's poor arm he keeps losing.
Her potions are chemical reactions that cause the Animus state.
Basim is the genetic reincarnation of the Isu Loki, he appeared 'mad' to Eivor (Odin) and Sigurd (Tyr) because he had come to realise this and attacked Eivor i.e. Odin in rage for his son/family but also frustration because neither Eivor nor Sigurd realised who they once were.
In myth, Loki's children are depicted as 'monsters' or 'beasts', I don't think they're going to be Isu. I have a feeling they'll be more like machines or something we haven't yet seen.

I feel like the reader is definitely Desmond. It would be a massive comeback for him, and that the fans love him to much, people won't complain if he does officially come back
Yeah. And the fact that the reader is voiced by Nolan North and the game dropped some not so subtle hints...
it is and if u go to present day and open your phone and go to media it will show two messages from desmond and shaun
I believe that. Or Adam is an ancestor of Desmond and its Adam and Desmond in the same body
What the fans really want is Ezio Auditore
@@drummasta23 exactly that
I feel like you might’ve missed something in the game? The Asgard/Jottunhein missions maybe. But Basim is literally Loki reincarnated, Eivor is Odin, Sigurd is Tyr, Halfdan is Thor, etc. Basim isn’t trying to reunite his Isu comrades. His family he wants to reunite with is his son Fenrir, who Odin imprisoned, and his lover Alethia.
I literally put the Basim/Loki connection as soon as I encountered him in the Asgard arc. They look identical with the same voice actor.
Is that why Ivor said "I have seen through odiens eye"?
@@rockandrolldude22 yes cuz he is odin himself
@@rockandrolldude22 and odin in game that evor see is just a reminder that he is odin they trying to wake him up evor never realised that he is odin all along in the game and basim know hes old life as loki
@@ognjendimitrijevic9959 I hope they elaborate more on it. I mean I already know they gave us the story and I understand most of it. but just to give us more context and in-depth to it.
The Wolf and moon t shirt loved that shit 😂
OHHHHH. BASIM WANTED TO KILL EIVOR BECAUSE HE SAW ODIN IN EIVOR. AND ODIN TRAPPED FENRIR. AND BASIM IS LOKI. SO EIVOR IN A PAST LIFE TRAPPED BASIMS SON!!! OMG ITS JUST NOW CLICKING!?!?!?!?
YOU ARE LITERALLY A GENIOUS, THANK YOU!!! THATS WHY HES FAMILIAR WITH THE STAFF SINCE THEIR ALL ISU!!!
Correct.
Awesome ! I was wandering why Basim got so mad on Eivor out of nowhere.. this makes a Lot of sense.
I would say Basim and Loki share the same memories kind of like how Layla was able to know exactly who basim was because she lived through Evior so I think basim is both Loki and him self
@@jackkikikikikolol8749 Basim is Loki's sage
“Thousands and thousands of years”
Basim has only been there since 877 till 2020. Shows who’s been paying attention
nerd... :D
In Norse Mythology loki was bound and left to suffer , its possible that Baim is just a pigment of his self like what is to eivor and sigurd, so the one that killed the Isu was a thousands of years ago, so its correct or Basim was trapped in the simulation that it felt thousand of years ago, thus an exagerration most people do it.
Lol I was thinking the same thing. It's only been one thousand years and change.
The scene for collecting all the anomalies feels so important to the game's story. "Secret" endings and hiding information THAT important behind collectibles is obnoxious.
This
factual.
Really want to kill loki after that ending left me on a cliff hanger
This games ending single handedly brought back the franchise for me.
Same with this explanation & how I actually understand it now & now I know what the hell happened. Yeah I can be excited about AC
And if the rumors are real we may play as Basim in the next AC..
@@tolisbou now that would be interesting. But how would that work exactly.
@@cookiemonster1787 I don't know sadly
I have read a blog in which they said the next AC may take place in Syria - Arabia with Basim bringing back some of the old mechanics of the game.
Being more stealthy (assassin) and less fight face to face (fighter). But maybe its all bullshit 😛 they make so much money from this franchise and their DLC's that i don't think they really care about how much "Assassin" you are in the story 😂
@@tolisbou I like the old school stuff. But ok I get it.
He wants his son fengir, he said that several times. His wife in the staff is the blue giant lady he loved in the game.
No his wife is aletheia the isu
@@jkx3rd Ok, now who is Lokis wife? That blue lady. Loki and Basim are the same person, therefore his wife is the blue lady. Come on dude, pay more attention.
@@justinlittle4534 Loki and Basim aren't the same entirely. Loki lives inside of basim but he isn't basim. That's the same reason why Eivor sees and speaks with Odin
@@justinlittle4534 all of Valhalla is a simulation to help eivor understand the Isu better, the blue lady is Alethia in a form that would make sense to the Norse and their mythology
@@eMillion100 Well yea true I should have been more specific.
At the end of the day, the story development and flow fell short. It may turn out to be a great story, but if one only played the main quest as everyone was saying to do, they would miss out on a huge chunk of the story and the part that ties it all together. I finished only the main quest last night and hopped online today to find out what am I missing because the story was stupid and completely disjointed. Turns out the side quests are part of the main story and little in the game pushes you in their direction. I would have walked away from the game thinking this was one of the dumbest stories I've played through in a long time.
meeting the reader isnt a side quest IDIOT.
@@sebastienlafontaine93 Where did I say meeting the reader was a side quest?
That’s part of why I love Assassins creed. There is more to the story. Try to finish all quests. I liked Odyssey more but Valhalla answered many questions.
I really hope they now actually make use of the story they set up in Valhalla and don’t just abandon it like assasins creed 3...
Honestly same.
It's taken so long to get back into the modern day story I wan't it to stay
@@kazekagejichujisoo7838 I fucking hope not
They didn't abandon it Desmond's and ezio's story was coming to an end there isn't anywhere else they could've gone with it
Mirage baby
I also think it may be possible that Loki was the first assassin. Odin would sometimes use his powers to be selfish and cruel. Because 'he knew best' what was good for humanity. Reminds me of the templars..
You can't blame Basim / Loki. Odin proved during the game AND during the metaphorical visions that he was a giant douchebag who harmed Basim / Loki family and felt no compassions even for his most trusted follower Tyr.
I wanted to take note of something, when Basim (Loki) was making the pledge that he will bring his family back he said children. I just remembered in Norse mythology his children referred to not only Fenrir but Jorganmander (World Serpent) and the goddess giant Hel.
Jormungandr should be faravid that try to poison halfdan which is Thor incarnation
As well as Sleipnir, Odin's 8-legged horse.
In my opinion Basim is reincarnation of Loki, so are Eivor and Sigurd (Odin and Tyr).
So when Basim talks of his Family he means Fenris and Angrboda(Athletheia).
Cause during the fight Basim always says Eivor will pay for what he has done to his son....
You’re actually right. That’s exactly what it is. Odin and tyr and the other aesir isu transferred their minds into the tree of life to be reborn again in another time (eivor and all the others) basim is one of the few that remembers his isu life clearly, which is why he refers to it so vividly. Possibly because his life as a hidden one and their extensive knowledge of the isu, he was probably able to remember his past life. I dont think basim is a bad character but a morally grey one.
@@tito2471 Yes. But having said that, Basim etc. are all Isu. So the story of Loki, Odin etc. doesn't matter, it's really the story of the Isu, behind the Gods they take on, that's the important factor. So the question is who is Loki's children really? Other Isu, Hybrids, Humans? The Gods/People they reincarnated into, aren't important, the Isu backstory is.
@@LeonardoDaVinciLulz Yeah, I wonder how Loki is going to find his children.. I can't imagine they were allowed to be put into the life tree... I am really looking forward to see the Isu story becoming bigger and bigger.
@@LeonardoDaVinciLulz yeah im also very interested to see where they go. Im happy that the isu story is back to where it used to be. Full of mystery and intrigue.
@@Asha_Cosplay But that isn't Loki, and those aren't his "children" per se. That's an Isu and his children are other Isu I assume.
"But first I want to show this clip..."
*AFK Arena ad plays*
😂
It really pisses me off how this pronounces Isu. It’s not “eye-sue.” They literally say it in the game and said it multiple times during odyssey.
This game is the best, it makes u think about the origins of mankind since the 1st one and gets better and better
I feel like the entire story blew over your head too much to explain in a comment but there are countless other videos that go over it pretty well
Dude. This is just explaining what happened at the end of the game. I have more indepth videos and the reader, the isu, and what it means for the future of AC coming soon.
I wanna give the people who get the game at Christmas to play it before going indepth with my breakdowns
Yeah you can tell he didn't play through the entire game
@@DaStupidGoose mate... I got the game a week early... I've played through every single arc. Every single side quest and I was the first person to get up an animus anomaly. This video was a basic explan of the ending of the modern day as to not spoil it completely for everyone else.
@@BPRGaming you can see in the we comments alot people feel like there's gaps and missed info in your review I understand this might be your way of tiptoeing around spoilers but it's not coming off that way
@@BPRGaming maybe stop focusing so much time on editing your voice in the video and focus on playing the game.
If you dont know what Basim meant with his son here is my theory. Basims son is Fenrir, cuz Basim is actually Loki. Fenrir was then almost killed by Odin(Eivor). In the Story of Valhalla Basim (Loki) wants revenge
Two things hear me out I’ve just finished the game and I’m going....
1 the reader is Desmond
2 basim is in fact Loki
Ive only played origins and Valhalla and after watching this video And reading the comment section; im so so confused
In the next game, who knows. While reviving the Isu (which we suspect will happen listening to Basim's words), even layla and desmond can be revived. their minds are still intact, they can use the phoenix project.
Loki in the game is shown as a researcher who loves knowledge and his wife shared most of his ideals. He was okay with humans and other beings Isu believed to be inferior but Odin and other Isus hated them and this led to a clash between them. To be honest, Loki and his wife just wanted their family and still want that, he was mad at Eivor because he felt absurd at the fact that the one who did all these bad things to his family forgot about all this. His madness was valid but still, he respected Eivor.
Basim was a thief from AC Mirage.. And became a Master Assassin..
Man the next assassin's Creed is gona be crazy. I hope it's in the modern day
this guy needs to start playing these games.
and he needs to learn how to say ISU
I don't know if Basim(Loki) will be the new modern day protagonist. He's more of the new main antagonist in the modern day, like Juno was. We have to wait for the new Assassin's Creed game to get that confirmed. Unless we get that answered in the upcoming DLCs.
And just a small correction Basim was inside "the grey" for over thousand years, not thousands of years. And he just want to bring back his family, not the entire Isu race.
I get where you're coming from mate. I agree he will be the new modern day antagonist, but then we also get to control him at the end fo the game so that's why I was throwing it out there :)
You spelt modern wrong btw
@@Hatchfree Thanks for pointing that out.
@@ShadowViking95 np lad
Honestly, I hope William Miles is going to be our new protagonist and that Basim is going to be the antagonist
I was so confused after basims betrayal because he sounded so much loki and i knew they were somehow connected but had no idea how.
The fact basim survived is blood boiling like how Micha bell n Dutch betrayed Arthur in Red dead redemption 2
From what I’ve read so far Basim wasn’t the bad guy? Oden was the bad guy.
Basim is Loki. Eivor is Odin. At the end Basim is even wearing a fucking wolf shirt. His son is Fenir.
It is obvious that the reader is Desmond, don't be like that... "I think I have a Theory blah blah" whenever it's so obvious that it's right in front of your face lmao 😂
You also have no idea how to say some names correctly like at all lmao can't blame it on your accent either, cause it doesn't force you say Isu wrong or say Sigurd wrong... You literally say Siguard.. there is no "a" in the word so you shouldn't be screwing up his name so badly... Sigurd isn't a damn guard lmao so don't call him Siguard when it's Sigurd.
Good effort but there's so many things wrong with this.
In order to understand the Eivor/Sigurd/Basim connections you have to relate it back to when we've seen Sages in the past, aka reincarnations of Aita. The same thing is going on here; there's just a lot more 'Sages' of different Isu than we thought (specifically the eight plus Loki that we see in the hidden truth cutscene). If you played the Asgard/Jotenheim arcs, you would not only understand that Eivor, Sigurd and Basim are reincarnations (Sages) of Odin, Tyr and Loki respectively, you would also understand the motive behind Loki's desired revenge against Odin; Odin killed Loki and Alethia/Angrboda's son; Fenrir (represented in the dream world as a giant wolf. The true Isu nature of Fenrir is unknown). We also know Loki and Alethia had other children. THIS is what he means when he says he wants to bring his family back together in the modern day; not the Isu as a whole (also Juno's dead thanks to the Phoenix Project, that plot was dropped in 2018). You'd also understand Loki and Alethia's relationship if you listened to the dialogue during the anomalies.
And in regards to the Reader; I don't understand how you missed that the Reader is obviously Desmond; he has the same voice and references it in the dialogue. This isn't ambiguous; it's all but confirmed. You'll notice that the resemblance to Adam and Eve also resolves the plotline introduced in the Truth segment of AC Brotherhood.
Also Basim hasn't been trapped in the gray for 'thousands and thousands of years'; more like just over a thousand. Eivor was around in the late 800s, we're now in 2020.
I KNOW THAT READER IS DESMOND! I HAVE ANOTHER VIDEO COMING OUT ABOUT THAT WHICH I EXPLAIN AT THE END OF THE VIDEO!!
@@BPRGaming well to be fair dude you said "a possible theory" when it's clear it's Desmond but okay
Fascinating
Thanks man
My theory: is that Eivor might actually be Odin, this will explain a lot of things. First of all Isu don’t have power to communicate through mind (as Odin does to Eivor), second is that when Basim says “Look down to the deepest of your memories” Eivor in the final fight “MY SON” is the reflection of how Odin and Mad one betrayed the son of Loki “The giant wolf” in the quest Bound to fate, Binding to Fate, Cheating fate. And also... in those quests when Eivor drinks potions he can see through aprons memories, but, as we learn later, ( by collecting the pieces of anomalies) that these visions are nothing but a poor reflection of actual memories, it’s that the Odins memories were inside of Eivor head all along. I’m tired of typing but so you know that these are not that half of the points to my theory. If you are interested message me on discord Shesse#7811
Remember I’m in the lady asgaurd mission when the future tellers or whoever they were showed that when eivor altered his fate that it would ripple through midguard for time to come. Well this is that happening when eivor cheated his fate it caused all these ripple affects through mid guard that’s what we are seeing now
*^ I’m the last*^
In. God I hate auto correct Jesus
It was pretty clear they were reincarnated. Sacrificing something so you can be remembered by the tree, and live on after death. Although I thought Loki was gonna be Sigurd, forgot about basim. And it’s pretty cool how they hinted Loki was basim
OK we all know that the reader is Desmond but remember that subject 16 cut scene, where is subject 16 tells Desmond to find Eve and that the key is in her DNA. And more Importantly when Juno says when cross the other side she will be waiting for you. I feel like I’m forgetting some thing or were missing parts of the puzzle here help me out guys.
You're not missing anything. Those are, as of now, just story elements that they discarded.
Crazy theory, but what if time travel somehow becomes a thing (or a simulation through the Gray) and Desmond and Layla become Adam and Eve from the Isu times
Oooh lord. I am hooked back onto AC's story
Remember In the last asguard mission when the future tellers or whoever they were showed eivor his future but they said “ this will ripple through midguard for eternity” meaning by cheating fate he opened up all these timelines. That’s what I believe we are now is all these timelines opened because eivor or “ Odin” cheated his fate
Loki is basim he has the same voice and he looked almost exactly the same and sigurd is Tyr they both lost there arms and Odin was the cause the great betrayal just like Eivor was the main cause for Sigurd loosing his arm by not stopping his brother u see all the reincarnates as u go and the more they show them selves the more u see them as the same people from the Asgard gameplay from ur visions and Desmond is the reader of course and I’m thinking the Jótun that Loki loved is the woman in the staff because he calls her love and already knew her sum how but I don’t know for sure cuz I don’t know how she would become one with the staff maybe it’s not her but they had to know each other before they all died and the black marks on the neck explains that secret ending you see that black mark on multiple characters necks when ur going thru the game they are probably Isu blood lines that are like Eivor and others and Eivors might be gone cuz it was bitten off by the wolf at the beginning
Valhalla made me really confused. I really despise Basin, and now what we are to see basin = Loki in Bagdad? Makes zero Sense. Not to mention that there is no guide in the right direction to the story, and now I have basim doing anomalies. I can't like him since he is Loki and my hero is Eivör, that's who we are connected with. Really confused.
i knew this would be her last game. she had a trilogy just like demond (yes i know he got 5 games but brotherhood and revelations were more like side stories and not main entries thus why they weren't numbered 3 and 4). hell her final fate is even the same as desmonds. but this time we didn't have to wait almost 10 years to find out.
Bassim is Loki and wants to re-unite with his children, when he was fighting Eivor in the ISU lap, he said "for my son"
the same thing Loki said when he was fighting Odin in the Nilhaim mission
It really sucks that Layla's story is over .I liked her.They have simply exchanged a female character for a male one which I don't like.
@Mr. Anonymous I mean we have been following for her many years, 3 in fact.
I am greek and "Aletheia" means "Truth" if that helps
The reader is Desmond He died when he actived the eye and his personality and Self where transferred to the simulation and he started to read possible ends of the world and how to save them
She went to slow it down ( can t shut it down cause there would be no radiation shield ) and found the reader ( probably desmond ) and chose to not slow it down cause the reader told her that another catastrophe would apear and would end world so she chose to die from radiations and stay in the same place as the reader and find another solution (not as you said that by slowing it down there would be no protection )
Basim is Loki reincarnated through the sage program that he snuck into. Eivor is the sage of Odin and thats why Basim/Loki was trying to kill him for revenge of his son (The whole son thing is explained in the Asgaurd missions)
Now you open new idea and I change my understanding of the game lol. It’s complicated and I love AC there is too much possibility
The first thing I thought when meeting the Reader was "That's definitely Desmond!" I only thought that, because of him constantly looking through end of the world scenarios.
Man, you're a genius! How could I never thought about them becoming Adam and Eve before? I think you might be just right brother. If you remember, subject 16 told Desmond to find Eve, why only Eve? Damn, that got me thinking now...
I think basim is the reincarnated loki like how eivor is odin
You can see how loki also reincarnated by the anomalies
And the son he mentioned obviously is fenrir of course
I think the DLC of this game will explain who the isu version and who the viking real-life version of fenrir is, cause in the mythology fenrir was the wolf that was gonna kill odin (and therefor eivor). Now i believe that eivors death and how he came to rest in vinland by being killed by fenrir (maybe a sage or a isu-human hybrid) will happen and thats what basim is searching for, thats why he need eivors memories. He will use eivors memories of his son fenrir to find him in that era, maybe see if he got hooked up to yggdrasil or something else of isu-origin and see what happened to his son. Another dlc might explain how he will get his wife out from the stagf
It’s a long shot but I think they’re going to go back in time to when Desmond died and he won’t save the world, he’ll survive the catastrophe and he’ll enter the Animus during the apocalypse and explore the memories of the next character, whoever it may be, or it could be the end 🤷🏼♂️
I’ll tell you the number one thing I didn’t do in this game was read all those stupid letters.
I read them
Holy crap now I understand everything, with your help my friend, the clip of the gods is ragnarok, odin and everyone where trying to pass their DNA to humans, so thats why they reincarnated as eivor and loki as basim, thats why so many references in the game where explicitly highlighting the idea of reincarnating, so thats why loki as basim complains about their kids to eivor at the end because they are the reincarnated of the gods
I might have missed something, but when layla enters the yggdrasil machine and basim/loki escapes, shouldnt svala/freyja be there too?
Did loki manage to kick her out so that her mind went back out to a probably dead body?
She is there, you can see her in the simulation but frozen
It seems that Sigurd didnt knew that Basim being a Isu would make that he would not be in a complete darkness as he says to Eivor, since Valka's mother is a human and do not have a Isu blood, this made her frozen, but Basim not
I thought that maybe the fenrir survived and is bound somewhere. I also read that Loki in lore had another child and that it was a snake
His other child is Jorgumandr (might have spelt it wrong) which is the world serpent.
He also has a daughter, Hel. I’m curious as to why they didn’t mention Jörmungandr and Hel in the game because Jörmungandr plays a role in Ragnarok and Hel is the ruler of Niflheim. I want to know what happened to them. Did Odin killed them as well before Fenrir?
@@mirandagoldstine8548 in mythology Fenrir swallows Odin and is then killed by Odins son Vidarr. Jormungandr the world serpent is killed my Thor. But as the sergeant falls a cloud of poison mist engulfs Thor and after just 9 steps Thor falls dead. Hel as far as I know wasn’t at Ragnarok and she lives.
You forgot the hidden seen of Basim and Eivor smiling at each other over the campfire in modern day
Huh?
The Adam & Eve parable is on point, definitely food for thought, considering the Pieces of Eden (Apples) have been in the series since the beginning.
I have a head canon that Lugh the Ploymath, the leader of the Tuatha Dé Dannan/Celtic Isu was the Architect of the Yggdrassil/Sage project. I'm Irish and Lugh in our mythology was reincarnated as his son Cú Chulainn, it's a weird dynamic as Cú Chulainn is his own person but is also his father/Lugh. It has similar dynamics as to how Eivor is Odin but Eivor is Eivor also same with the other sages.
I’m excited, I just want all of these stories to actually connect, desmond, the cult of the first instrument, Layla and the reader.
They could’ve done a better job with the story. I was confused the entire time. Fun game though
They need to make the modern day stuff more focal in the new games. We aren’t getting enough info in each single game
Literally we barely get any real world info
If you have completed all the Asgard story and missions you would know that eivor is actually a reincarnation of oden and basim is actually a reincarnation of lokie and it gets a lot deeper than that as well but it all starts 2 make sense (idk how 2 spell all the names and shi right but u pick up what I'm putting down)
My theory is that the spirit of eivor actually represents fenrir aswell. I couldnt figure out who who it represents but it makes sense, and I know shes not lokis son. But the wolf kissed was responsible for Odin's death. Just like the seers foretold in asgard.
Did anyone else realize halfdans best man had that mark on his neck?
Eivore 847 :
Forging "The Way of freedom"
Altair 1165 - 1257 :
Set us "Creed" free for everyone
Ezio 1459 - 1524 :

- Strip all assassin's equipment and leaving them behind and live with own freedom life like Eivore
Well, the legendary Assassin's that huge Influence finally found not In Greek but in Barbaric people who known as the Vikings...
Since most of the ancient mythologies are taken as a part of AC Series.....I think the next AC game will less likely be Hindu(Indian) mythology or AC would end with the morden world catastrophe or feudal japan though most likely Ancient Rome would be the choice cuz most of mythologies are from west so it is easy to merge different mythologies.... but as for an Asian mythology it would be more difficult cuz merging mythologies from two different continents is least of the directors concern.... comment if you have any other thoughts....
Good overview. Would be nice to have a deeper breakdown. I’m familiar with the ending but I wanted to see someone else’s take on it considering not a lot of people have finished the game and some haven’t bought it yet.
I think Basim (Loki) will attempt to bring his children back into the modern day so I feel like some modern day missions are going to come back. Much like Desmond fighting some Abstergo men. Speaking of Abstergo, I feel like they will make their return into the next game. It’s really hard to see where this will go because Loki will always be tied to Odin story wise, unless Minerva (Gunlodr) takes his place
My only worry for the franchise now is setting. The only obvious location is China/Japan but for some reason I really don’t want them to go there. I feel like I’ve seen enough of that setting. They’ve done a lot of good places, and going back into Greece or Italy would be just repeating itself.
I think they’ve started the beginning of the end of the franchise. And I hope they have. Another one or two good story games and they can finish the series with justice
Cheers mate! Thanks for your insight! I hope they have something planned for Loki in the future! And as for a deeper breakdown. I'm gonna try and create a series breaking down the isu moments within Valhalla!
@@BPRGaming Well I’ll have to subscribe for that:)
My guy its been the beginning of the end since AC3 when they killed Desmond lol, story wise AC has fallen apart, they don't know what they're doing anymore, and to further support this they toss Juno away in a comic book?!?! Lmao like we really played what 6 or 7 games leading up to her as the villain and thats how she ends up? Its a joke now honestly and I hate saying that because this was my favorite game at one point 😔 as for setting who the fuck knows, AC isn't even an AC game anymore, its just a massive RPG that looks pretty on a screen lol
@@patrickmacasaet3493 I know where you’re coming from 🤣 I read the comics too and thought the exact same about Juno. I’ve still got hope for it, but I’m glad they did nothing more with Ezio because now I can play that trilogy in peace knowing it’s a masterpiece. I do, however, think AC did what it had to do to survive. Never in a million years would I think Assassins creed would be on the face of next gen consoles lol. Valhalla does take it back to Assassins in everything but the gameplay but (unpopular opinion here) Valhalla was not that good. Felt far too bloated and some story arcs sent me too sleep
Mirage seems focused on the Persian empire and Ubisoft has left a few other clues to where their going on Layla's computer. China, as a setting, has basically been confirmed in game and through Ubisoft's road map but who knows how long that'll take to get to.
Off norse pagan lore that seemed like a reinterpretation of ragnarok and odin denied loki because he brought on ragnarok with his two sons fenrir and jormangander. It also should be noted that in ragnarok thor killed jormangandor but venom dripped from the serpents mouth killing thor and odin was slayed by fenrir as to which he swallows the sun. Loki kills heimdall which is shown in that secret ending
I Wander If Fenrir and other norse Monsters existed like the Greek ones the Isu made. The Ragnarok I can understand is a reference to the solar destruction. Maybe Fenrir is one alegory to something terrible Loki did.
I think the reader is desmond
This is little over half a year old, but I do think that by "family", its clear he means Alethia/Angrboda, Fenrir, Jormungand, and Hel.
They put their genes into the thing in the cutscene to be reincarnated Odin as eivore,Sigurd is tyr, basim is Loki the visions is remembering their past life in the asguard story u betray tyr,in the start of the main game u see a vision of you betraying Sigurd(Odin letting fenir bite Tyrs hand off) you tie Loki/basims kid down and betray him so that’s why basim wanted to kill eivore
The reader is Desmond, basim is loki, he tried to find his children. If not revive the isu
Basim wasn't hooked up to that ISU machine for thousands and thousands of years. Eivor hooked him up to it in the 9th century. So that's for around 1200 years or so.
Basim kinda looks like loki
He's the reincarnation of Loki... Sigurd = tyr
Eivor= Odin
Him: Sig-Ard
Everyone else: Sig-Urd
Um, the Reader is Desmond's mind. He's voiced by Nolan North so.....
Imagine basims son is a secret leader that has been giving orders in the shadows for a long time.
basims son is fenrir and his other son is jormungandr and their sister Hel
5:42 The reader is wearing glasses, he reminds me of Bill Miles or Warren Vidic but neither of them have glasses
The only thing that doesnt fit is, How Basim remember his old life as Loki and knows who he is and Eivor doesn't.
You need to play the Asgard Arc of the game and, after that, collect all the memory fragments left scattered around the world by Basim. That will unlock a short video in AC: Valhalla that will give you the answer to that. It's quite similar to AC 2's The Truth.
@@NANA-lt6hd I will not run arouns the map for microtransactions and lose 10hours for 5sec videos. I have seen the videos you are talking about and that doesnt explain how basim is Still loki in mind. How he joined the assassins. Why he manuoulated sigurd and all these
@@ChrisEzio Those are collectibles not micro-transactions. And, as I have said, you need to also play the Asgard Arc of the game as well. And, I mean, to also pay attention to the dialogue in that arc. But for convenience's sake, I would suggest to watch the interaction between Odin and Mimir again. It's explained how it works albeit in a more fantasy-like way since that's the way Eivor's mind could comprehend it all.
if you played the asgard quests you’d know that basim is the reincarnation of loki and eivor=odin and sigurd = tyr , and he wants revenge for what they did to his son Fenrir in the last mission
From the way he talked when he was fighting Eivor it sounds like he either thinks hes Loki or he is Loki then Eivor would be Odin.
Just like you say :)
Not only is the reader Desmond. But he is literally voiced by the guy who voiced Desmond
If you really want to understand the ending play the asgard arc and finish all anomalies
This is my first Assassin's Creed game and I just finished this story arc this morning. I have to admit, I'm completely lost.
Dont forget that basim likes squirrel watching
Ubisoft still has to explain how Eivor ended up being buried in Vinland (North America) after all the events that occurred. Obviously they lived their life before dying in NA for a chunk of time.
Basim attacks you because you killed his son?
Basim is Loki, you are Odin and the brother is tyr. In the story you see what Odin does to Loki’s kid, won’t spoil it for you.
@@fear_me_plz.117 yeah I know. I’ve finished the whole game, i wrote that because in this video he didn’t know why basim attacks him and I was like, what? You finished it and you don’t know?! This video was just a bad review.
@@rumbletumble94 ahh I see, hard to see sarcasm on text my b
Basim has not been trapped in the grey for ‘thousands and thousands of years’, he’s been in there a little less then 1200 years
Yh its obvious... Loki is Basim and Odin is Eivor. Will be cool to see who his children are
Thanks I couldn’t stomach Valhalla so I’m watching this before the next game
Eivor is the reincarnation of odin, valkas mum was the reincarnation of Freyja and sigurd is the reincarnation of tyr I havent worked out who thor is but yeh. I can safely assume that the reason basim, the reincarnation of loki will get his children back through the abstergo phoenix project, thats why he wants to go to Abstergo and take over the assasins. This is what I have come up with.
"You can also bet it's going to be one hell of a story"... assuming that they won't end it in a crappy comic again *cough*
What comic re you talking about?
@@marlonprando7294 If I remember correctly it was called Assassin's Creed: Uprising. They had started back in AC: Unity the whole Phoenix Project thing which had the secret goal of reviving Juno only for them to end it in that comic. So people that got to play only the games were left extremely confused in what the hell happened with Juno since Origins never bothered to mention anything about it at all.
Didn't know that, thanks
