    I told myself I wasn't gonna make this, but that copystrike had me in a bad mood for two weeks. Jokes aside, this video will compare the Acre location featured in Assassin's Creed I and Assassin's Creed II.
    Now, the main thing to note about this is that AC2 reuses the same map as AC1, with a couple few key differences like the removed stalls and hiding spots, as well as the Sync Tower connecting AC2 to Altair's romantic life. If you have any questions about it, feel free to comment below and I'll try to answer the best I can.

    Great video, thanks. I always found it weird that the protagonists after Altaïr didn't have scabbards. Their thighs should've been in ribbons by now without any scabbards.

    Try locking on to get more consistent air assassinations in AC1. If you're standing on flat ground it also helps to be running towards the edge. Altair also used a unique assassination method when landing on a nearby ledge at a distance from the same height as the target while locked on which was seemingly forgotten and never returned. Vaulting is also unavailable in all his subsequent appearances

      imo ac1 looks more realistic and gritty, whereas ac2 is going after a specific style. the original ac2 port has much worse draw distance compared to ac1 as well, which doesn't help ac2

      @GODZILLAZFRICTION nonsense defence. AC2 is no where near as gritty as AC1. AC1 and AC2 are like the same difference in tone as AC unity, and AC syndicate... 1 and unity are gritty and dark. 2 and syndicate play with dark themes and ideas, but are ultimately lighter in tone.

    I wondered why in AC1 air assassination worked some times and some times it didn't, that explains it. But now that I think about it, it's far more realistic to just be able to fall on a person and kill them from like 5-6 meters, rather than from 30m without any damage

    • @Kaine852
      @Kaine852  Год назад +1

      I believe it's because of balancing. AC1 was more focused on making things realistic and challenging, hence why we see him doing an air assassination in the CG intro from a high point, only for it to be cut in the main game. They later returned the feat to its full glory, probably for the fun of it.

    Well it seems that later on down the line In acre, at least In the history of assassins creed, King Richards guards stopped occupying the rich district of acre, and red-crossed Templar crusaders took their place.

    To the game’s credit. Acre managed to be held by the crusaders for 100 years before the 1291 siege of Acre. It was a a European hotspot for quite some time before the mainland stopped supporting the city

    Could you make a comparision of paris in ac rogue and ac unity? (And valhalla dlc)

    • @Kaine852
      @Kaine852  2 года назад +9

      I may have to check out Valhalla's DLC and see how much of Paris is in it. It would be a waste to make a comparison video if there are no major landmarks to tie both of them over.
      The old video I made about AC Rogue and Unity was tied to the Notre Dame and the Versailles Palace area. For reference, the Siege of Paris in Valhalla took place in 885. The Notre Dame started construction at around 1160 and finished 300 years later. Any landmarks in AC Unity may not have been around during Ragnar's era. Wouldn't make for a compelling video if the other half only had huge tracts of land.
      Another thing is that the Templar Fortress of Paris level in AC Unity (the very beginning of AC Unity) took place around 1307, and would have been a great opportunity for such a video. But to my knowledge, this fortress does not appear in the Siege of Paris DLC.

    • @Kaine852
      @Kaine852  Год назад +5

      Both of them use the same animations, moreso in AC Revelations. The only difference with AC1 and AC2 is Ezio climbs faster and with two hands, whereas Altair climbs slowly and one hand at a time.

    • @Kaine852
      @Kaine852  8 месяцев назад +2

      For Altair, laziness. It was a separate asset from the Altair model and they decided it wasn't worth tracking down since Ezio doesn't use scabbards and therefore, they decided that this piece of canonical accuracy was negligible.

  • @chrismoore5333
    @chrismoore5333 Год назад +10

    AC 1 is so much better looking and more serious, but AC 2 is more fun, and has better characters. I think it's the same difference between AC unity and AC syndicate, only Altier and Jacob are similar in that they are more brutal but reckless, and Arno and Ezio are more similar in that they are more reserved, but less concerned with the creed then they are with revenge/redemption.

    • @godzillazfriction
      @godzillazfriction Год назад +4

      altair is definitely not as reckless as Jacob plus altair is very reserved plus ac 2 has a gritty atmosphere/tone as well as the visuals.... difference is that ac2 uses oil paint art style and that some ppl say that ac 2 graphics looks worse because of the art style compared to the 1st game

    • @chrismoore5333
      @chrismoore5333 Год назад +2

      @GODZILLAZFRICTION sorry but no. AC2 and brotherhood are similar tone to syndicate, and made by the same people. Jacob is no more of a joker and no less serious then Edward or ezio. And Altier is absolutely as reckless as Jacob. He nearly got the entire assassin's brotherhood destroyed and he'd only been playable for 1 level. He was also older then Jacob, and he still messed up. He managed to date a templar, and ended up allowing a useless no one called Abass to take over the assassin's brotherhood. Altier and Jacob are very similar. But people who don't care about Syndicate, always slander Jacob, and prop up the hilariously inferior character Evie... same thing happens with people who don't care about Origins, saying Aya was better then Bayek. Truth is that Jacob amd Bayek are both absolutely fine. And Aya and evie are worse versions. And the truth is, altier and ezio are over rated, and in reality just as reckless as someone like Jacob, or Arno... But you keep spreading your bias views instead of facts, why not.
