Truly. No one saw the potential of this game's parkour and stealth at release because it was buried under layers of bugs. Even an experienced player with thousands of hours under their belt still doesnt have this games parkour entirely under control, simply because its far too inconsistent, the parkour is buggy and messy.
It could have been improved in AC: Mirage if they took this game's finished parkour system and tried building upon it, making it more consistent with player intent and adding more tricks and maneuvers, i havent played mirage but from public opinion it seems they built another similar parkour system from the ground up again
@@dogo523 wait till it’s free in psn, do not waist a dime. They did good tricking us to believing this was going back to the roots. It’s completely sloppy, the combat is trash. The parkour is trash. And graphically not equivalent to unity in it’s time. Not even as good as origins
@@dogo523 by now they should have mastered the parkour from unity. With the power of next gen, we should have unity on steroids. We don’t even have double assassination animation , it’s so disappointing and trash
I saw some gameplay of Mirage today and I fully admit that Unity looks smoother and has more animation variation than Mirage. Game aged like fine wine.
Unity had different types of swords, rifles with bayonets, big swords, axes, maces. A wide variety to choose from. Mirage has a sword, that's about it, and it somehow has less takedown animations than the amount there was for single weapon type in Unity. Mirage took the "back to roots" and executes it in an EXTREMELY disappointing way.
@@gibleyman That's why its so funny that Ubi fanboys still delude themselves into thinking that Mirage wasn't originally a Valhalla DLC. LMAO! Ubi knew they could make more money by releasing it as a full game with the false allure that it has gone back to its original AC formula. LOL Yeah. Automated teleportation assassinations really does scream original AC roots.
this is so satisfying and soothing to watch. the sound and sequence of assassinations, the serene soundtrack and amazing smooth parkour. It's people like you who truly define how assassin's creed is meant to be played. you truly are a master assassin, Jadon_AC
I wish too, but why make something with heart and soul you could be proud of when you can keep pumping out awful schlock that some people are dumb enough to buy. They said they learned after the last ghost recon…. They have not.
Well, people just had to parrot the copied opinion that it was so dreadful back when it first released. They just had to cry about something for no good reason. The higher ups just took note.
That was magical, I used to want to be this good when I first started playing AC. Just amazing your planning, fluency and execution is the best their is.
This is the most perfect AC Unity video I've seen, it has everything that I could've wished for; ACU Fixes, Amazing background soundtrack, smooth parkour and clever assassinations. Wonderful job!
@@Jadon_ACHow is the game, now? I was thinking of rebuying it again (digitally) in the PS Store on PS5. Add it to my Wishlist, til’ it goes on Sale. I absolutely loved the multiplayer aspect of the game, honestly. I’m currently going back through Black Flag. These old Assassin’s Creed games really were (and still are) the better games, over what came after. They destroyed the franchise when they turned them into Witcher wannabes. They had an identity (ba-dum-chh 🥁), a uniqueness to them and they sacrificed all that, just so they could try and compete with something that feels out of place in the AC universe.
@@DamianHowardTV go for it for sure, maybe wait for a good sale tho but if you don't mind its worth whaterver price it is now, i think the multiplayer servers are down tho.
I find it so interesting how this game's perception among the community switched almost 180 over the course of a decade, I vividly remember liking it when I was much younger and being a little disheartened by seeing online reviewers give it more shit than I thought it deserved. I'm just glad to see it get the credit it deserves now
Arno was honestly the most dangerous Assassin ever. He's just so smooth and creative with his assassinations. Look at that high profile environmental assassination where he pushed the big guy against the cart and stabbed him. Whereas in rpg trash the enemy's head would have clipped through wall from that running assassination
It's a mod called ACU+ or ACU Fixes, which basically fixes some issues regarding parkour, has slow mo and the ability to shoot phantom blades and pistols at mid air. Its pretty useful
just started playing unity for the first time and this gameplay is beyond amazing, absolutely insane how you perfected pressing the right buttons when it comes to parkour and absolutely stunning assassinations. great work!
I have first hand experience with Unitiy's finicky parkour system, but when persistent people like you manage to make it work, it looks absolutely stunning. You're insane in the best way possible, thanks for the content! (the sequence at 1:02 looks sooo good!)
Goddamn, beautiful movement. Wish my gameplay was that smooth, it still looks janky for me even after the ACU fix but I know it's just skill issue when seeing clips like these
skill issue, yes, developer skills. the animation team and level designers worked hard, but the people who were supposed to code the movement failed. there is clearly a way to make everything look smooth but the player has to manually do it, rather than code restricting bs moves, or it looks straight out of a cartoon.
You just made me buy AC Unity on PC so i can play with these mods lol. I really enjoyed the game all the way back when it was released, even being a bug filled mess. And after watching this years later, i REALLY want to play this game more like we all wished it would have been. (And this looks much closer with these mods)
Glad I came across this AC channel … first video I watched, and man you made that look real assassin like. I have to sub now 🤝 that was some excellent parkour
I struggle with parkour controls very much in this game. I guess after all it's just me, because you are pulling out those stunts without any problems. Maybe i should try those mods too, great vid mate!
very nice video bro! especially that slowmotion when you slide over those barrels 👍 i dunno why i have skipped this game... parkour looks so cool! im atm playing every single old AC's again from start to end and unity is going to be next what i havent played yet only tested for like half an hour many years ago. Rogue is what i play now and i like that alot :P but i think im going to love unity. Keep up the good work! 👊
These are the kind of videos I watch whenever I end up getting more and more gaslit by everyone else into thinking that I'm supposed to like what happened to Assassin's Creed when it jumped the shark and turned into a bloated, grindfest RPG with little to no actual assassin-esque things being in focus. I've had to argue with RPG AC apologists multiple times why I, as a long-time Assassin's Creed fan, think that, in spite of its issues (at launch especially), Unity was where AC peaked when it comes to delivering what I've always wanted to see in the AC franchise. If only Ubisoft decided to set this as the foundation moving forward to build upon and polish. Nope. That's not what we got. For me, Assassin's Creed should focus on what it takes to be an assassin. It's in the fricking title in the first place. It's why I have so much respect for the HITMAN franchise even tho I didn't agree with all of the changes done to the World of Assassination titles. It took into account the very name and core audience. What do true HITMAN fans want? And that's the same kind of question that Ubisoft refuses to truly answer. Sure, Mirage is a step back somehow, but it's definitely missing so much from what used to be one of my favorite gaming franchises to ever exist. I've said it in many comments I've done before, and I'll say it, again... it's sad how a game like Ghost of Tsushima can be a better AC game in literally one outing... while the formula for AC was always there if only those in the positions of authority and power actually decided to dedicate time and effort into pushing that essence forward instead of dropping it for the sake of pushing the Witcher-at-home version we ended up getting more and more.
Its a sad reality that we can't escape unfortunately, and whats more sad is that the RPG games made them so much money its gonna motivate them to stray even more from the core of this series
This game is literally flawless. I don't understand why they don't keep this game's parkour in other AC games and all the different assassination animations are incredbile compared to Mirage which only has ONE running assassination. This game is bouta be a decade old too.
@@lcduvient5224Unity was the same at release. Same gameplay, same story, same mechanics. No one’s talking about the fucking bugs. We’re talking about the GAMEPLAY. How it WAS. None of the AC games that came after it even touches its greatness.

aww noooooooo, really?!?!!@@Dimethyltripping
This game is really special. If Ubisoft remakes it and makes a proper online version I would pre-order.
Fr they should have remastered it For next gen it bet they could have fixed the bugs
Literally yeah

Why the heck did I read the title in Batman’s voice like “I AM BATMAN”
That's the only way to read it 😅.

great control

amazing music and moves 🔥
Hes not killing them, just putting them to sleep. A very deep sleep.

Wow i diddn't even notice that, thanks for pointing it out it looks so sick .

You can only using a mod

Its all in the details !❤️
how do yalll not get bored of playing this games over and over again amazes me

@@ReikiMaulanathey did it because everyone was complaining about stagnation in AC
The next ACE game needs to have THIS level of parkour byt the combat of AC 4 and Brotherhood. THAT is the true return to form
Nothing says "I'm Batman" like a huge double handed sword strapped to your back
😂😂😂
When this game works, it really works
should've done it at night
The parkour, kills and planning. This video develops into a fine art. I really wonder how much time you spend for.
took me 3 buisness days for a 5 minute video, thank you for watching it
Wow, THIS is Assassins Creed at its best. I wish they had adopted the parkour and combat aesthetic in Mirage. Hopefully they do in the future games
Tottaly Agree.
unity parkour was not as good as it looks in this video. the animations and level design are good, but the people who were supposed to code the movement failed. there is clearly a way to make everything look smooth but the player has to manually do it, rather than code restricting bull moves, or it looks janky
such a beauty.
I knew I wasn't the only person that saw myself as the Batman of Revolutionary France.
A master at work 🤌
thank you
Didn't know Batman killed people.
Missed Chance to have "if looks could kill" In the background
haha thanks man
Honestly hope this game picks up Ubisoft developers and see what they made before and what they can improve with.
Never thought of using the phantom blade mid parkour that’s a game changer and very stylish
Everyone: Nice choreography
Me: Assassin robes look so cool
Haha 😂
acu dev really understand that assassin's creed was all about style and not substance, amazing gameplay dude!
i appreciate it !
This is how experienced Arkham players handle Assassin's Creed and it's beautiful
true its giving batman with prep time
Best AC stealth montage I've ever seen.
That was really cool, good job 👍
Thanks 👍
How is this so much better than current AC games
Goated I like the swing phantom blade kills that’s so sick wtf
My first Assassin’s Creed that I’ve played and bought in 2023, together with Syndicate, and I was sold cuz of this one. And it still lingers in my mind cuz I haven’t finished it yet
still to this day this is the best parkour of all assassins creed games
