Michael Haney Thing is though all 3 of those guys are waaaaay out of Bellec's league and they rebuilt the Brotherhood out of necessity due to circumstances, not after they destroyed it with their own two hands. Bellec was a crazy fanatic using the work of actual legends to justify his craziness for a cause only he thought was noble. When he first mentioned their accomplishments my instant reaction was "Don't you compare yourself to those heroes, you bitch." lol
thomas brady The point of the Assassins hasn't ever been to govern people, just to maintain freedom. The Paris Brotherhood was enjoying a period of peace and prosperity with the Paris Templars as they were both on good terms and the people were deciding their own fate with the revolution. The problem came when both sides' peaceful leaders were murdered, Bellec was no different than Germaine who hijacked their factions to fulfill their own agenda. In the end Bellec was just a fanatic stuck in the past that couldn't let the fighting go meanwhile while Germaine was a loose cannon and wild card dedicated to Juno. Both had a part in destroying a good thing and reigniting a needless conflict.
@@silviogrijalva8801 Elise's father is a Templar but he want to make peace with the Assassin and so he got betrayed by his friend because they disagree with this whole thing too, same thing with Bellec here.
When Bellec mentions about the mutinies within the Brotherhood, there are some examples from the games throughout the series. For Masyaf, Altair killing Al mualim after discovering his Templar identity and then Abbas driving away Altair from their home only to come back decades later to take it back. For Monterregioni, La Volpe wanted to murder Niccolo believing that he's the traitor that allowed the seige of Monteriggioni only for Ezio to intervene about the real traitor. For the American colonies, it would most likely be Aveline being forced into killing her mentor because he believes that she turned against him all because of her Templar stepmother. Despite what really happened, Bellec twists the stories around thinking that these acts were about power when it was really about fighting the corruption. Bellec is trying to use that history to help the brotherhood gain power by spilling Templar blood to achieve peace because to him it's considered corrupt to have a truce with Templars when really his actions and ideals are corrupt themselves.
Rickiebobby1st Wrong. La Volpe was not in Monterregioni he was in Rome when he accused Machiavelli of treason. What Bellec was alluding to wasn't Assassins betraying each other. He was saying that in those instances- the corruption and fall of Masyaf, the fall of Monterregioni when Cesare's army attacked it (killing the then Mentor, Mario) and when the Templars purged the Assassin Brotherhood in the American colonies- each time the Brotherhood was all but destroyed and each time a Legendary Master Assassin rebuilt it stronger than it was before. He was trying to compare himself to Altair, Ezio and Ratonhnhaké:ton.
@Rickiebobby1st, actually it was Shay from Rogue who purged the American Assassins, though he doesn't kill the mentor (achilles) he wipes out the colonial assassins
8:36 what did Bellec mean when he said last piece of this god fucked lunacy Was it about this potential peace treaty with the Templars that he has been attempting to prevent happening
@thomas brady fax, you could tell from the higher up lineups, that Karen, mirabeu and the other guys, just pretentious assholes who sat on their high thrones and never did anything but put down Arno when he was getting closer to unconvering the coup
"Yes, killing everyone who doesn't agree with you is a great way to start your rise from the ashes." Isn't that how every assassin game works? Kill everyone up to the Templar lord, and happy endings all around?
Actually, that's one of the three paradoxes enounced by Altaïr himself! "We pretend to fight for freedom, but we kill those who disagree with us." In my opinion, this is the "tolerance paradox". Basically, can tolerance, tolerate intolerance? No, because, if you do, the intolerant will eventually destroy you because they're intolerant! This is the same problem here. If you fight for freedom, can you accept the freedom of fighting for dictature? Well, the Assassin order consider that the answer is "no". That's an interesting topic though.
Personally, I wish that The French Revolution felt more integral to Arno's storyline, as well as tension between the Templars & Assassin's; instead, it felt background noise. Arno and The Assassin's could have served/represented The Moderates, with Bellec and The Templars serving/representing The Radicals. It could have been really interesting to explore the complexity of the Revolution's "downfall." Arno and Bellec could have started off with similar visions for France's future, but later drift apart due to the increasing influence of Robespierre and the changing attitudes of both parties. Arno vs. Bellec would have made an awesome final boss, with Robespierre's execution igniting the confrontation. He and Arno had an interesting dynamic that, unfortunately, did not really feel fleshed out. In the end, Arno was a solid protagonist in an overall decent game. However, it felt like a lot of interesting concepts were tossed aside or not fully fleshed out to become truly spectacular.
Unity had so much potential too. It’s for sure one of the most interesting takes on the Assassin and Templar conflict. I miss the old Assassins Creed games.
Their should be an Arno vs Shay Cormack (protagonist of Rogue that killed Arno's father)battle with a lot of skill involved , i would like to see this as a dlc
yes that would be great, and i wish Shay would've cut Arno's throat. Arno is such a boring lame ass assassin. Shay is skillfull, master H2H, deadlier assassin, he is the real deal.
People, People ! easy, there is no need in insult each other, just keep It to the arguments why Shay or Arno would win + in my opinion Shay is a better soldier, but Arno could win because of Shay's older age in Unity, Shay was born in 1731 so he would be 57, despite Haytham was also a very capable swordsman when he was 55
The Templars are like ISIS, they don´t care what you think, but that you obey to the will of their God, in the Templars case being the father of Understanding and the power of the PoE.
Bellec wasn’t right at all. The real goal of Assassins isn’t directly to fight Templars but to protect freedom. Bellec was just a fanatic who wanted to fight the Templars even ignorance he had to destroy Earth for it.
Rodrigo Borgia's and Cesare's take top spot, if only for climactic value and greatness alone. Though I prefer AC:II overall, both bosses were well done in their execution. Though my second pick goes to Al Mualim.
Two things I'm considering. I love the visual symbolism of Bellec's countenance, he (almost certainly on purpose) wears his beard similar to Ezio's with the bald patch above the lip, because he idolizes the man. The simplicity of Ezio's war with the Templars, and the brutality of the millennia-long A vs T war is what he has come to expect for all time, and this fanaticism led him to purposefully begin the internal purging he saw was necessary. Also, I feel that in the AC games after AC3 I had a hard time realizing that unlike Altair, Ezio, and Connor, the protagonists of BF and Unity are not at the center of the action, and it was weird for me to be playing in the shoes of a man with his own life and desires aside from the assassins. It was a jarring change that I have only begun to respect and enjoy. Because the ups and downs and confusions of reality are so rarely like the typical videogame plot, I enjoy the "occupational realism"
It doesn't matter if Bellec was right or not, as a matter of fact there is no right or wrong here, it's just a difference in philosophy between Bellec as an extremist and Arno as more of a free-thinker. In the past games we have been told that the assassins are the typical good guys and the templars are the typical bad guys, but nothing is true remember and this game (and Rogue especially) have been showing us that it's NOT all so black and white as we used to think. Some templars are legit good guys who just don't want to see an orderless world resolve into anarchy and some assassins are bad guys who put personal vendetta's and power interests above the true needs of the people. A world with too much order is an unhealthy one, but a world without it is just as dangerous. I think the good guys, Templar or Assasin, are just the ones who realise that you need a bit of both.
FaireFire Bellec is a fanatic who's stuck in the past, he reignited a pointless fight. Sure both higher ups in both orders were corrupt, and he was desperately trying to clean up their mess. That doesn't excuse his actions. He would have made himself a hero where arno would have him take responsibility for what he did, even if he had the best intentions at heart. Bellec represents everything that is wrong with the assassins as did Abbas in AC 1
And too think~ All along l foolishly thought this was only a game and not factual history Time to blow the dust off the history books once again , my fellow and learned colleagues
Past? The Templars tried to turn the country into thier own backyard, there is no way taht anyone should negotiate, Bellev was easily the most Intelligent Character in the game. Making peace for the sake os peace is beyond stupid and is as an idea as unnanced as it gets.
@@basilofgoodwishes4138 Elise and her father want to make peace with the assassin and got betrayed, Elise just ask the brotherhood to help deal with those Templar killed her father, not to make peace with those Templar want to take over. Bellec just can't stand an idea of working with any templar and willing to kill any one who disagree with him.
Personally I loved this boss fight actually had multiple parts and kept tension high and just fighting on top of the rooftop while it started to rain and then the storm comes. Just epic! Well done ubisoft finally a well planned boss fight do this more often!
when Pierre mentions altair ezio and Connor the fight got real then when he asks Arno what he saw Arno mentions haytham those moments gave me the chills so suspenseful
Bellec was such a great character And his relation with Arno was just pure gold it's so tragic to have to kill your mentor RIP Bellec, top tier assassin !
in my opinion, this is where ACU shouldve ended. it just made plot-structural sense to me. Also, what happened to the death sequences that happen in all AC games? How are we, the player, seeing the flashbacks. It doesnt make any sense...
Arnos first civilization blood line is so strong it apparently allows him to see specific memories of the people he killed(he must've saw a lot of shit considering he's an assassin) that is useful to his goals because of plot.
Vizzy Zilla It did. When Arno killed Lafrienere he specifically said "In his memories I saw blah blah blah." And when he was imprisoned Bellec said "You have the sense" the infamous eagle sense, Apparently all the assassins we've played as are actually aware of their eagle sense. Haytham, Altair, Edward, and Ezio commented on theirs. I think Connor did too, not too sure. But yeah. Apparently that means whatever function the eagle sense is in the game, that is actually canon to the main characters first civilization blood(meaning he has more). Just like how Desmonds eagle sense gave him the bleeding effect ability. I think depending on your ancestry within the first civilization(Since they all have first civilization blood in them) you get different abilities from the eagle sense power thing.
"To save the brotherhood, I'd see Paris burn." That kinda defeats the purpose of not killing innocents. I think Bellec is an example of the fact that not all assassin's are good, just as Shay is an example of a templar who's good.
"I've seen Templars put entire villages to the sword just to get the chance to kill one assassin" Bellec was a Zealot and he was in too deep to realize he was no better than the enemy.
This would've made more sense if they made this in a combo with rogue, because here Arno is defending the Templars despite the fact that Bellec is correct in that right now the Assassins have power but the Templars are going to achieve power again if they aren't stopped, just like they always do. So Arno should've been the rogue assassin if they held back and then revealed that his step dad was a Templar
i haven't seen no one mentioned this but you can assassinate Bellec from behind and there's a different cutscene for the assassination tho... good touch from Ubisuck
I have to replay this with a weaker weapon and gears to know that Bellec can use smoke bomb, stun grenade, heavy strike, staggering strike and dodge. It was way more fun than whatever the final boss fight is.
He made a good point. Many times The Brotherhood built themselves up from nothing to power, and many times that power made them let their guard down, giving the Templars the upper hand.
Bellec: "I've seen templars put entire villages to the sword just to find one assassin!" Also Bellec: "To save the brotherhood, I'd see Paris burn." Anyone who says Bellec wasn't a fanatic is lying to themselves.
Am I the only one that got serious feels when Belle said these 2 lines if you wait to assassinate him”Make it a clean kill” and”Don’t hesitate I thought I taught you better than this pisspot”
Bellec was so right. If there was a choice i would’ve stuck with bellec. In the fight bellec was stating all the bad about Templar’s and Arno was stating the good of Templar’s. The cool thing about this series is that both sides have both been good and bad at times so it’s always situational. And I doubt that making peace with the Templar’s was just a front for the Templar’s to take out the assassins or it wouldn’t have lasted one of the two would definitely happen
This dude is an extremist and he wants to see Paris on flames for the Brotherhood and he said that he will kill anyone who disagree with him because he doesn't know that his actions may cause major consequences
AC Unity's story was alright, and the combat was pretty good too. But everything else was just amazing, i absolutely love how you can customize your own Arno, and i wish more AC Games had COOP. Also i love the weapon variations and just everything, the parkour is honestly the best. I love the parkour so much, and France it perfect for it imo
bro i felt so bad because i had just unlocked the gold plated pistol which as you know you can shoot 8 bullets before reloading and instead of having a tough boss fight i defeated him with only a few shots each encounter so i had to change my pistol since it was ruining the moment
Many people hated this game, maybe for the story, maybe for caracter development (or for graphics, that sure was hell), but for the XVIIIth century French Revolution, the feeling of loss, change, passing from an era to another (Elise and nobility), this was quite a game. It felt bitter, but because that period was bitter (just read Sade, and later on Chateaubriand). It could never be a happy ending because of the brutality that occurred these years. And for that the game was point on.
Bellec took the accomplishments of Altair, Ezio, and Connor and twisted them to a darker purpose. Altair had to kill Abbas, Ezio would have NEVER slain a member of the assassins for trying to find peace between the two orders, and Connor for all his rage and faults could think further than the immediate future of simply killing templars.
There should,ve been a boos fight of arno and shay that would be epic and they should've add the name of rivalry editon of 2 games called ac rogue and ac unity
The assassin's and templars both have the same end goal peace problem is they have different methods of doing it and both are too stubborn to sit down and comprises
"Only a mind free of impediments is capable of grasping the chaotic beauty of the world." -Altaïr Ibn-LaʼAad Altair altered the brotherhood to fight for free will they rather choose freedom instead of peace.
T and A are the opposite ideals they can never have peace between them except just quit the brotherhood don't call yourself an assassin if you don't believe in the CREED.
Yeah and look at the trailer at what Arno can do. Arno and Edward duel would be a close call since they are both extremely dangerous. Both are well known for having assassins' skills even before becoming one. Arno relies on agility while Edward relies on marksmanship more.
Bellec: "We've lost our purpose, Arno. We mired ourselves in politics and revolution." Bellec was basically describing how the new games ruined the series.
I'm not enjoying this game as much as I'd hoped, but I really liked this scene, something about it felt quite badass and dramatic, definitely my favourite one on one in the franchise, in fact I'd hoped this is what the final fight against Haytham in three would be like.
It's funny, because I'm enjoying the game a lot more than I'd expected. I was excited for Black Flag, and I enjoyed it too but, I don't know...it just didn't seem like there was a lot of substance outside the Jackdaw itself. I wasn't even planning on buying Unity, but now that I have, I'm glad I did. I'm not sure why, but Paris is reminding me of Florence in AC2 a lot, and I liked Florence, maybe it's the farmland around the outskirts of the city and the fact that you can "liberate" the districts. And I think having civilians that do more than just mill around aimlessly makes the city feel not only accurate, but alive. I love seeing all the crowds of protestors burning effigies of the King, waving the flag, I've even seen a few carrying noblemens' corpses around. I love it. There's very little in the game so far that I haven't enjoyed.
That Guy Glad you're liking the game, there was something about Unity that stopped me from enjoying it, and I'm not quite sure what, but then I really disliked ACII when that came out, and when I replayed it, it became my favorite entry in the series, so hopefully I'll enjoy this more when I replay it :)
Hello comment from almost a decade ago :D I just got Unity, I enjoy it but dang the combat is kinda hard. Currently stuck on the 2nd part where you have to spam against Bellec
i got a different dialogue before killing bellec. if you dont receive any damage from him he will say "well fought pisspot, atleast have the balls to finish it(somewhere between those lines)"
Man Bellec is a batshit crazy fanatical isn't he? He talks about how the templars destroyed everything in their way just to kill a single assassin, but that's exactly what he would do.
Havent gotten to this part yet. Im taking my time with this game too.. I think the game is shorter than before however the enemies are stronger. The french solider police are certainly harder than before..The guys in red..who were never really explained..The AI for them is pretty well done but what is awesome is that they cant follow you. I did the dome mission with all the ammo in it and picked them off with a small amount of help from the berzerker dart. I can see the game is very money driven as well. I kinda like that because it slows thr game down..
If an assassin like altair or any other main assassin became the boss fight this would’ve been a perfect boss fight Example:Your a new assassin and the main assassins got corrupted by the Eden you have to fight them till the evil gets out of them
Just imagine what if instead Bellec was Shay,but these whole story are dramatic,Bellec helped Arno get out from prison for nothing,bring him into brotherhood and then,this
Danny Bonneville Mine also doesn't work. Did you succeed in getting through this stage? Can you please help me? What should I do just to get past this?
Hi Danny. Yes, I succeeded. I have put the controller down on a table and then hit the circle button really fast (not hard) with my finger. As fast as I could... That worked... Good luck, hope you succeed.
When Bellec mentioned the accomplishments of Altair, Ezio, and Connor, Shit got real.

this's gotta be one of the best boss fights from ac, next to Cesare Borgia.
Agreed!!
GI Jack and Rodrigo too
The newer games had some great boss fights. Bayek vs Flavius, Aya vs Septimius, Kassandra vs Alexios
Rodrigo Borgia's and Cesare's take top spot, if only for climactic value and greatness alone. Though I prefer AC:II overall, both bosses were well done in their execution. Though my second pick goes to Al Mualim.
I think the haytham boss fight has the first spot for the long moral speech between connor and haytham alone.

I think he disabled coz when I played there was a background music
Bellec: What ya gonna do about it?
Arno: I started this game kicking your ass, and I'll end it kicking your ass
when Pierre mentions altair ezio and Connor the fight got real then when he asks Arno what he saw Arno mentions haytham those moments gave me the chills so suspenseful
By what Arno said he meant De la serre raising him as his own son. Not haytham
He says, and I quote...”I have seen”, he has never met Haytham, he’s talking about himself, his adoptive father was a templar.
"We can...Together" as soon as I heard that I was like "IGHT BET! I'M IN" But nooo! There was no choice or anything! I had to kill big homie😭😂😂
Bellic has a point actually.
No exactly
I could already tell that Bellec was going to die/leave because his jacket is unlocked in S:7, memory 3.
same
Bellec was such a great character
And his relation with Arno was just pure gold
it's so tragic to have to kill your mentor
RIP Bellec, top tier assassin !
in my opinion, this is where ACU shouldve ended. it just made plot-structural sense to me. Also, what happened to the death sequences that happen in all AC games? How are we, the player, seeing the flashbacks. It doesnt make any sense...
Arnos first civilization blood line is so strong it apparently allows him to see specific memories of the people he killed(he must've saw a lot of shit considering he's an assassin) that is useful to his goals because of plot.
that doesn't make any sense. even so, i may've accepted it if the game told me about it.
Vizzy Zilla It did. When Arno killed Lafrienere he specifically said "In his memories I saw blah blah blah." And when he was imprisoned Bellec said "You have the sense" the infamous eagle sense, Apparently all the assassins we've played as are actually aware of their eagle sense. Haytham, Altair, Edward, and Ezio commented on theirs. I think Connor did too, not too sure. But yeah. Apparently that means whatever function the eagle sense is in the game, that is actually canon to the main characters first civilization blood(meaning he has more). Just like how Desmonds eagle sense gave him the bleeding effect ability. I think depending on your ancestry within the first civilization(Since they all have first civilization blood in them) you get different abilities from the eagle sense power thing.
i do not remember that at all
a good headcanon explanation friend, one that satisfies me...for now.
Man I just wished you and Bellec got along with each other.
Beloec was such a good charecter
obiwan vs anakin
If Obi-Wan was the one to fall to the dark side
Exactly what I was thinking
"To save the brotherhood, I'd see Paris burn." That kinda defeats the purpose of not killing innocents. I think Bellec is an example of the fact that not all assassin's are good, just as Shay is an example of a templar who's good.
"I've seen Templars put entire villages to the sword just to get the chance to kill one assassin" Bellec was a Zealot and he was in too deep to realize he was no better than the enemy.
it's cool how the game gives you a sword for the important parts of the fight even though you dont have one
This is much more epic than the final boss.
This would've made more sense if they made this in a combo with rogue, because here Arno is defending the Templars despite the fact that Bellec is correct in that right now the Assassins have power but the Templars are going to achieve power again if they aren't stopped, just like they always do. So Arno should've been the rogue assassin if they held back and then revealed that his step dad was a Templar
You're so right, this is a very good reason to go rogue and, probably, people would stop complain about the game
The fact you can fight with a rifle is just amazing
Arno built different.
i haven't seen no one mentioned this but you can assassinate Bellec from behind and there's a different cutscene for the assassination tho... good touch from Ubisuck
I have to replay this with a weaker weapon and gears to know that Bellec can use smoke bomb, stun grenade, heavy strike, staggering strike and dodge. It was way more fun than whatever the final boss fight is.
This felt way more special than valhalla bosses
Ugh, it was so obvious the murderer was Bellec. I wasn't the least bit surprised when it was revealed to be him.
I was surprised that Ubisoft tried to surprise us with a predictable twist like this.
IMRAN FARID Not to mention they revelead us Bellec's costume as a possible outfit. We all know what shit will hit the fan...
He made a good point. Many times The Brotherhood built themselves up from nothing to power, and many times that power made them let their guard down, giving the Templars the upper hand.
Bellec: "I've seen templars put entire villages to the sword just to find one assassin!"
Also Bellec: "To save the brotherhood, I'd see Paris burn."
Anyone who says Bellec wasn't a fanatic is lying to themselves.
Just realized that bellec loos exactly like Blackbeard, just with shorter hair
Ah Arno how I wish I could climb like you
stagaring strike makes it a whole lot easier
Am I the only one that got serious feels when Belle said these 2 lines if you wait to assassinate him”Make it a clean kill” and”Don’t hesitate I thought I taught you better than this pisspot”
Bellec was so right. If there was a choice i would’ve stuck with bellec. In the fight bellec was stating all the bad about Templar’s and Arno was stating the good of Templar’s. The cool thing about this series is that both sides have both been good and bad at times so it’s always situational. And I doubt that making peace with the Templar’s was just a front for the Templar’s to take out the assassins or it wouldn’t have lasted one of the two would definitely happen
This dude is an extremist and he wants to see Paris on flames for the Brotherhood and he said that he will kill anyone who disagree with him because he doesn't know that his actions may cause major consequences
Killing your father's best friend is something I would never do
Elise is such a useless character everything she did to help Arno could of done single handily
I loved this buggy, glitchy, mess of a game. Definitely makes top 3 AC games for me
Imagine if they make a prequel to unity and you get to play as Bellec
Arno really brought a gun to a sword fight
5:29 swings and misses "fuck" I felt that😂😂
LMAOOOO
If there was a choice I would've joined him.
I figured out how to get past this on xbox, you need to go onto options, turn off blood, then turn brightness down to 1
AC Unity's story was alright, and the combat was pretty good too. But everything else was just amazing, i absolutely love how you can customize your own Arno, and i wish more AC Games had COOP. Also i love the weapon variations and just everything, the parkour is honestly the best. I love the parkour so much, and France it perfect for it imo
So far I’m at the start of sequence 8 and finding the story to be incredible. I truly love it.
Goddammit even wen the Templars are in a civil war the brotherhood can't stay the fuck out of other people's fight
+Punch Down King wrong war
Punch Down King he meant the Templars had a civil war within the Templar Order
I like how Arno sounds sooooo calm xD
That line about killing anyone who disagrees with you, that is as much a great criticism of the French Revolutionaries as it is of Bellec.
bro i felt so bad because i had just unlocked the gold plated pistol which as you know you can shoot 8 bullets before reloading and instead of having a tough boss fight i defeated him with only a few shots each encounter so i had to change my pistol since it was ruining the moment
Many people hated this game, maybe for the story, maybe for caracter development (or for graphics, that sure was hell), but for the XVIIIth century French Revolution, the feeling of loss, change, passing from an era to another (Elise and nobility), this was quite a game.
It felt bitter, but because that period was bitter (just read Sade, and later on Chateaubriand). It could never be a happy ending because of the brutality that occurred these years.
And for that the game was point on.
Bellec took the accomplishments of Altair, Ezio, and Connor and twisted them to a darker purpose. Altair had to kill Abbas, Ezio would have NEVER slain a member of the assassins for trying to find peace between the two orders, and Connor for all his rage and faults could think further than the immediate future of simply killing templars.
I honestly can’t see arno using anything but a sword
I’ve been sitting here half an hour spamming B and it keeps saying you failed on the last one
Ik this is from 2 years ago, but did you manage to get it done? I'm stuck on that part rn
Glad to see that I’m not the only one who likes fighting with rifles.
There should,ve been a boos fight of arno and shay that would be epic and they should've add the name of rivalry editon of 2 games called ac rogue and ac unity
Ngl Arno would be dead in seconds
He was my favorite, he only acted in good intentions sorta
The assassin's and templars both have the same end goal peace problem is they have different methods of doing it and both are too stubborn to sit down and comprises
That’s what the Paris brotherhood were in the talks of doing..
"Only a mind free of impediments is capable of grasping the chaotic beauty of the world." -Altaïr Ibn-LaʼAad
Altair altered the brotherhood to fight for free will they rather choose freedom instead of peace.
T and A are the opposite ideals they can never have peace between them except just quit the brotherhood don't call yourself an assassin if you don't believe in the CREED.
This would have been WAY more impactful if we got to play with Bellec for more than one whole mission.
oh edward kenway would kick his ass. He actually knows how to fight.
Game mechanic doesn't count as the character ability.
+Wrestling Fan look at the trailers
Yeah and look at the trailer at what Arno can do. Arno and Edward duel would be a close call since they are both extremely dangerous. Both are well known for having assassins' skills even before becoming one. Arno relies on agility while Edward relies on marksmanship more.
+Wrestling Fan I am wearing Edwards clothing when I was doing this
conor altair and enzio too ac4 fanboy!
For the second "O" smashing part it keeps saying I'm not doing it right and he got me but I'm hitting "O".
I kinda want a boss fight with bellec vs arno but with "it has to be this way" from mgrr in the backround, idk why it kinda just fits so well
Bellec: "We've lost our purpose, Arno. We mired ourselves in politics and revolution."
Bellec was basically describing how the new games ruined the series.
yup
Anyone else find the fighting in AC to be clumsy, unbalanced and with unresponsive controls?
I'm not enjoying this game as much as I'd hoped, but I really liked this scene, something about it felt quite badass and dramatic, definitely my favourite one on one in the franchise, in fact I'd hoped this is what the final fight against Haytham in three would be like.
It's funny, because I'm enjoying the game a lot more than I'd expected. I was excited for Black Flag, and I enjoyed it too but, I don't know...it just didn't seem like there was a lot of substance outside the Jackdaw itself.
I wasn't even planning on buying Unity, but now that I have, I'm glad I did. I'm not sure why, but Paris is reminding me of Florence in AC2 a lot, and I liked Florence, maybe it's the farmland around the outskirts of the city and the fact that you can "liberate" the districts.
And I think having civilians that do more than just mill around aimlessly makes the city feel not only accurate, but alive. I love seeing all the crowds of protestors burning effigies of the King, waving the flag, I've even seen a few carrying noblemens' corpses around. I love it. There's very little in the game so far that I haven't enjoyed.
That Guy Glad you're liking the game, there was something about Unity that stopped me from enjoying it, and I'm not quite sure what, but then I really disliked ACII when that came out, and when I replayed it, it became my favorite entry in the series, so hopefully I'll enjoy this more when I replay it :)
Hello comment from almost a decade ago :D I just got Unity, I enjoy it but dang the combat is kinda hard. Currently stuck on the 2nd part where you have to spam against Bellec
This is like a reverse anakin vs obi wan. Or is that just me?
That's exactly how it is
This is awkward but ...... was i the only one who got a emotional at this scene
1:26 The way men conquer the stubborn women
i got a different dialogue before killing bellec. if you dont receive any damage from him he will say "well fought pisspot, atleast have the balls to finish it(somewhere between those lines)"
As soon as i used eagle vision at the tip I noticed the clothes and I was like I knew it was bellec!
Man Bellec is a batshit crazy fanatical isn't he? He talks about how the templars destroyed everything in their way just to kill a single assassin, but that's exactly what he would do.
Havent gotten to this part yet. Im taking my time with this game too.. I think the game is shorter than before however the enemies are stronger. The french solider police are certainly harder than before..The guys in red..who were never really explained..The AI for them is pretty well done but what is awesome is that they cant follow you. I did the dome mission with all the ammo in it and picked them off with a small amount of help from the berzerker dart.
I can see the game is very money driven as well. I kinda like that because it slows thr game down..
The guys in red are the extremists.
DAVID ALBERGO that's what I'm like when I see them too!
If an assassin like altair or any other main assassin became the boss fight this would’ve been a perfect boss fight
Example:Your a new assassin and the main assassins got corrupted by the Eden you have to fight them till the evil gets out of them
I hear Arno's English voice for the first time and I must say:
His English voice is more masculine than the German voice of him...
Me I’m fighting with this guy but I’m keeping pressing O for 2 hours what is going on guys
This was heart breaking
I couldn’t even beat the bellec boss fight how do you do that
I just stuck in this mission forever....
thank u man that helped a lot I like ur vids
For Xbox or PS4 put the controller on a hard table or something and mash the button and it will work
Just imagine what if instead Bellec was Shay,but these whole story are dramatic,Bellec helped Arno get out from prison for nothing,bring him into brotherhood and then,this
I did everything like you did but when i knocked him down the first time the second mash sequence it didn't work
I got the same problem bro😭😭
I kinda wish Bellec was the main character instead of Pisspot
They did not know what to do with bellecs character they never even fully explained the Mark's in the prison walls and why he was looking for them.
Help I'm having trouble fighting belled in the O part I keep spamming the button but it won't work on the last part!
That is happening with me to
Just press faster the second time
You just have to have a seizure and spam really fast.
if u are using a controller hold your left analog stick in and keep pressing the button it works every time
Mark Hajdinjak that isn't working
i keep slaming o and its not working
Danny Bonneville Mine also doesn't work. Did you succeed in getting through this stage? Can you please help me? What should I do just to get past this?
Hi Danny. Yes, I succeeded. I have put the controller down on a table and then hit the circle button really fast (not hard) with my finger. As fast as I could... That worked... Good luck, hope you succeed.
M2
If you guys are on Pc, put aspect ratio to 4:3 and Play the mission, you can change after the mission.
