@@jackharlowsbiggestfan3717 Yeah, the bullets suck. You cannot even use the crowds to get away as the bullet will always hit you if there is no wall to stop it.
4:56 that wasn’t even an air assassination, the animations just blended nicely. Also love the precise movements with the side ejects and camera movements.
@@Kona4404Yeah, AC is not meant to be an RPG and the old formula was something unique to the franchise, but Ubisoft cannot stop making witcher clones at this point as they are only profiting in the short run. But they have nailed mythology part in AC Valhalla. And Mythology is not the problem as it is a part of Assassin's creed from early on as juno, Jupiter and minerva are gods from roman mythology and they have equivalents in Greek and Norse mythology and in other forms. The problem is In Odyssey in which they just f*ck up the lore and use pieces of Eden as an excuse to epic boss battles to tire the player out and sell more Micro-transactions which do not benefit the player or the game whatsoever as level scaling is turned on always. Odyssey took out the mystery of the first civ/isu. Myth is what first civ/isu is in the Assassin's creed franchise. They are portrayed in the AC canon as the species that was highly technologicaly advanced and with triple-helix DNA who created humans to rule over and use as slaves. So they were seen as gods as for their technology can only be understood as magic for primitive human beings.
On the one hand, I agree. When Arno moves as he should, his animations are beautiful and smooth. Almost every bit of movement in this video is exhilarating to watch and it makes Unity's parkour look great. On the other hand, I disagree. Jumping from the games before Unity and it really does feel like Arno moves how he wants to, not doing the side jumps you want, catch ledge being more nerfed than ever, and simply being locked in motion. I get it takes time to get used to Unity's parkour system and to master it, but even the players that do make beautifully choreographed videos admit that Unity's parkour has a tendency of having a mind of its own or just having moments where it just crumbles together. At the moment of writing, I have replayed and 100%-ed AC1 to Rogue and have started getting into Unity again. The earlier game's smooth parkour where catch ledge works in 270/360 degrees, side and back eject working whenever without it having to think of the specific animation and movement that has it's own distinct animation so you can anticipate your move, instead of having to know this specific building layout lets you do these kinds of animations, it's stuck to me and lets you move at your own pace. With Unity forcing you to know what the game wants to do parkour well, it will take some time to get me used to it. If I 100% Unity then I'll mention how I feel about it after getting used to it.
All Ubisoft had to do was perfect this system, tweak it here and there, and the franchise would've been a lot different today. A lot better. No need for vampire wings or flying unicorns or space swords.
Considering this: Ubisoft always has another assassin's creed in development behind there next release. They also have always developed 3 games in the same engine before before "revitalizing" the franchise with major changes to the gameplay core. So with Origins being a departure and inspiration from the witcher. I hope the next game goes back to a big city setting with major improvements to parkour.
You were right damn. But I think this is the last ac coming out before they go live service. And all the new games in infinity will me a mix of all the engines
And people bitched and moaned about this game so much before they saw how bad it would get 🙄 yes all the technical issues were unacceptable. And it shouldn’t have shipped like this. But I hate how I took most people in the fan base up to like this year to realize what an amazing game unity is. Definitely one of my favorites
Sorry but you're wrong. AC Unity is a mediocre game with lots of untapped potential. At the end of the day, that's all it'll ever be. I hate this trend of people praising shit games years after they called it shit because they're too blinded by pretty animations and ignore barely functional or responsive controls.
@@spoodurmin9742 lol yeah no I’m not actually. I’m not praising this game because of some trend you think you see, I’m praising it because it was a good fucking game lol. Perfect? Of course not. But in terms of gameplay, like climbing and combat, it felt like a natural progression for what Assassin’s Creed had been for years. It still needed work, but it felt like it was headed in the right direction. Parkour that felt complex and fun when you learned the system, and combat that wasn’t mind numbingly easy. I liked what it brought to the table. I’ve always loved unity, partially because I played it a year after release when patches had fixed most of the bugs. So it’s never been anything but fine in my opinion.
@@PLSE_SND_BY_ I can agree with *some* of that, since I have well over ~80 hours of playtime just fucking around with friends. But that’s besides the point. The game just doesn’t work, narratively and mechanically. Even when you master the parkour, like me, my frieda and many others have, the game still doesn’t care. Does it feel good? Yeah. Does it look good? Sometimes. Does it work? Every now and then. But then you go back to AC1-AC3 and it really opens your eyes. Those games were masterpieces in a mechanical sense. Nothing beats AC1-Rev’s responsiveness, or AC3’s fluid input-to-animation capabilities. The best way I can describe AC Unity is that it feels like you’re playing the game through SharePlay. Moving on to combat. I actually quite liked it but at the same time, it just doesn’t work. A pillar of AC games is the ability to mow through men like nothing, it’s a testament to each assassin’s skill. There’s a reason Connor, Ezio and Altaïr are regarded as arguably the best assassins, because the gameplay reflects that. I guess that was Unity’s way of saying Arno’s a poor fighter. Anyways, I too bought the game a while after launch for dirt cheap, and to this day I still run into glitches. You’d be surprised how many people convinced themselves they were all fixed. And I’ll end off by saying this: if Ubisoft had the balls to actually listen and improve on already established gameplay mechanisms, the future of AC could have been very bright. If they prioritized input over animations, Unity’s parkour would have been the greatest in the series. But no, instead they had to make a game set in Victorian London with a fucking grappling hook-zipline thing that made parkour useless.
@@PLSE_SND_BY_ Combat animations =/= Control responsiveness I’ll agree that Rogue isn’t as good as everyone thinks, since it’s just a big plothole with minor additions to lore and zero improvements on gameplay, but at the very least it works.
Unity’s parkour is the 3rd best in the series. The animations may look cool, but the system is still pretty inconsistent, and does not provide the freedom and manual input of AC1 - Rev, or even the Kenway games for that matter. I will take AC3’s parkour animations over Unity’s any day, because although they may not be as flashy, the blending of the animations is so smooth and seamless. Whenever Arno hops from object to object it’s like he’s teleporting towards it.
For me it just felt like momentum stopped and started whenever it felt like it, and you were never really in control due to how complex the whole process was
Oh sure it looks pretty, but try actually going somewhere with it only to have arno do a spin jump to some other wall the complete opposite way of where you wanted to go & in many cases now you've lost the mission because it's a timed sequence.
I think it’s a best looking parkour, not the best system. AC1-Revalations parkour system is still the best because of freedom of movement allow you to take risks
Unity was my first AC game, then rogue. AC Unity is definitely my favorite as I felt like an assassin. No pulling down the hood when you’re out of a restricted zone (which is one of the reasons why I don’t like the games that do this.) There was a variety of customization options (unlike the other games which included mostly outfits.) Later on I got a gift, Origins, which I’ve got to admit deserves the Assassins Creed title more than the other RPG games when it comes to story at least. I was disappointed when I realized I’d likely have to grind for hours to get any satisfaction out of the game that running around Paris and randomly killing a few criminals got me in Unity. On my second play-through of Unity (I had switched to using google stadia on my Laptop because I preferred keyboard and mouse) I had bought the DLC and had started it without realizing I’d be stuck in it. So I spent about a week figuring out how to get through without getting noticed. I had preferred the stealth approach but was not that good at unity with a keyboard and mouse so I kept getting noticed and killed by the max level infantry with literally no gear or skill whatsoever.
@@hunterbelvis idk may of just been me but i had a really buggy and broken experience with the stealth like enemies seeing me through walls, enemies seeing me from a stupid far distance away etc.
Syndicate has far worse parkour, as not only is the city design worse for parkour, but they removed a lot of the moves from unity and the ability to jump.
Unity parkour was garbage, I lost track of how many times the constant wall sticking made me lose objectives, or how I'd try and climb down from a surface only to be yeeted the opposite direction and fall to my death.
You mean worst right ? Arno NEVER does anything I want him to do. When he's supposed to go somewhere, he prefer jumping further. When I want to go down, he just hangs in there or glitch the hell out.
@@TigreDemon it does, that's why it controls way better on pc than controller. Arno will move in the direction relative to the camera. If you press w he will go to wherever the camera is looking, if you press a he will go to the left of that.
@@titularhero I also noticed at the end, when I was around 95% synchro that there was an input lag on the PC version ... you have to put "normal" as priority to the process for it not to lag ... fucked up

Assassin's Creed has always been the best action adventure game not an Role Playing Garbage based on the Witcher, it has its own identity.
