Your instincts were right, Black Flag is great. Funny you were asking about accuracy on the bit where they showed Notre Dame, the 3d model created by the team was so detailed it was sent to the people reconstructing it after the roof caught fire a few years back.
@@damianwayne8229 oh yeah I remember that now. When Notre dame caught on fire, they have to ask Ubisoft to give them the designs from ac unity cuz the real blueprints for the cathedral was lost or got really old and couldn't read well anymore
ACIII has honestly really grown on me, when you do the side missions and actually get to know the characters at the homestead and the brotherhood recruits it’s way more enjoyable than if you just did the main missions. Also Connor’s darker story fits the time period with his background
It's like Unity. It really could have used another 6 months of development. But what's there is good. It's just we were so close to legitimate greatness.
Ubisoft did it right with the ac series best game series i've ever played since childhood I remember coming from school and continuing the games every day at 3pm i played four of the games then but have played all of them i hope she enjoys it as much I did 😊
It has hands down the worst opening/prologue out of any of them. Takes far too long to actually become Connor the Assassin. Pretty sure the Creative Director or something said his one big regret was making that section too long.
The start of AC: Revelations is still to me one of the strongest starts to a game I've ever played. It's basically the trailer you watched but with Ezio talking in the background instead. So badass.
It's honestly been so long since I've played an Assassin's Creed game and these trailers bring back so many memories. I'm so happy you reacted to these and I can't wait for you to eventually play through these games. They are so good!!
AC1 has a protagonist named Altair. The next 3 games (AC2, Brotherhood and Revelations) all follow Ezio, with Revelations tying Ezio and Altair's stories together. So that older assassin was an older Ezio, and the ghostly vision he was seeing was Altair!
the cool thing about origins (egypt) is that ever since that installment, the following games have had their own discovery tours, allowing players to just learn history about the settings and cultures they are set in (new kingdom egypt, classical greece, and viking period england/norway). ubisoft has been collaborating with universities since i believe.
@@izmirs. the discovery tours are made by a different team using assets from the main game hence why it comes out afterwards, its funny when people thing a single team makes EVERYTHING for one game
It’s nice seeing people react to Assassin’s creed for the first time because 99.9% of what they think they know from the trailers is wrong. Until they play the games and find that Assassin’s creed has one of the deepest lore in games.
Oh man if you love ancient Egypt you're gonna fall in love with origins, it's the best representation of ancient Egypt in any form of entertainment, it actually transports you to Egypt
@@sam17ado87 Odyssey is like Origins but just more polished with a better story, nicer world and more enjoyable characters. Origins is good, don't get me wrong but Odyssey blows it away easily.
This is gonna be epic once you start this journey into the assassin's creed universe. All the games are great but I especially can't wait to see you tackle assassin's creed 2.
47:40 That man is indeed Odin, well sort of. A raven in Norse mythology usually indicates Odin is watching so it encourages them to know they battle in the eyes of their god.
So pumped to see you play this series Meg! This is one of my favourite game series of all time and partly why I got really into history and studying it. By the way for the Revelations and the second Unity trailer, the music was by Woodkid who did Guns for Hire in Arcane. Also when people talk about the trilogy, they typically mean 2, Brotherhood and Revelations which are unofficially known as the Ezio Trilogy by fans. Looking forward to this journey!
yes and according to me, AC2, brotherhood and revelation have the best story, but according to me the first assassin (Altair) is the most loved by those who bought the game since it appeared, that's why in my opinion Ubisoft prefers to bring into play even for a picture
God, that palpable hype for Black Flag. I resonate with that so much. Such a fun game, despite some of its problems. And I'd still say that the trailer where Blackbeard is singing Edward Kenway's praises is my favorite. I remember wanting to get my hands on Black Flag as soon as I saw that. The prospect of playing a badass pirate assassin that a legend like Blackbeard himself respects was so cool. And the game lives up to it.
your comment for Valhalla, "where is the hooded assasin?" is pretty much how the entire fandom felt as that game took a huge step away from the assassin and creed theme
Thats the problem most people ive talked with have The apeal of each assasins creed was the assasination factor With the main characters being hooded in their iconic assasins clothes
@Always Blue it could have, all the pieces where there, all the abandoned hideouts, gear and lore. Had they just done the story in a different way that focused more on the creed it totally could have worked imo. lets say Eivors village in england got destroyed and he finds the creed and uses them to take revenge and eventually embracess the creed as family. I would have played that
Guys have to understand that AC, from origin to Valhalla is talkng more about beginnings of the assassins and templars, and the Isos. But almost everyone is shitting to the real lore and only wants the same ol' and NOTHING more. Thats sad
I am so excited to watch you play through the AC franchise! I have always loved the games and have looked for some lets plays from people going in completely blind. This series has some great stories and incredibly deep lore and I'm excited to watch you discover it!
Feeling a little jealous that you get to experience this series for the first time. There are ups and downs to the series, but I remember playing the games from 1 to Origins (not counting syndicate) with warmth. If you do tackle the series, I'll be watching you go for sure.. all the stories.. and the secrets 😉
These trailers are still so good all these years later, the company that made most of these cinematics has also made a bunch for CDPR and Bioware too, extremely talented people, looking forward to you're first AC game! :D
That explains why I like them so much. I'm not a huge gamer and only play a couple of games a year, but the Killing Monsters trailer and A Night To Remember for the Witcher always struck a chord with me. It's why I played that game in the first place, and why it's now unquestionably my favorite game of all time.
honestly all the games have something i like about them, even if i have my faves idk if there’s anything that i HATE. maybe it’s just bc i’ve never been super critical of games, but i can’t wait to watch you play all these !!
"BLACK BEARD said that?!" Well, Edward "Black Beard" Thatch/Teach may have been one of the most infamous (through theatrics) pirate of the time, and across about 9 years he robbed about 40 ships, which is quite impressive. However, debuting a couple years after Beard's death, John/Bartholomew "Black Bart" Roberts put him and every pirate before and after to shame, robbing over 300 ships in only 3 years!
Happy to see you reacted to these and looking forward to your play throughs. This series will always hold a special place in my heart since I love history and mythology and seeing events and people through these lens is fascinating. Hope you enjoy them!
Watching all these again revived my hype for this series, I'm looking forward to the AC Mirage reveal. Glad to see you diving into these as well; I think the continuing theme of resisting the cruel and power-hungry is right up your alley. Honestly they're all worth checking out, it's just a matter of how much time you have.
I have the whole saga of assassin's Creed playing it since I was in middle school I believed my brother introduced the first one and I was hook on it. They are WORTH IT!!!
Here's the general timeline the games take place in: AC1 = crusades AC2 = renaissance Italy AC Brotherhood = renaissance Italy during the Borgias AC Revelations = Renaissance shortly after the capture of Istanbul by the Turks (From AC2 to AC Revelations is the life of Ezio Auditore) AC3 = American Revolution AC black flag = pirates (freedom cry is a dlc) AC Rogue = more pirates with a twist (I haven't kept upto date with Assassin's creed since then)
AC Origins: birth of assassins and is same period of time with Julius Caesar and Cleopatra AC Odyssey: full of mythology with Greek gods and is happening few years after Leonidas death
@@georgeprchal3924 it's only privateering if you serve a country and only attack ships and ports belonging to a nation your sponsor is at war with, the moment you cross that line it's piracy
AC 3 was the first game I was able to play and connor still holds my heart. his story, the way he struggled living in seemingly two worlds. the trailer gave me chills still
I have only recently found your channel and am enjoying watching the playthroughs of Assassins Creed. Love how you knew who Ezio was before playing these games, one of the best characters of any game in history and he is still very much the icon of this series
Assassin's creed is just different Vibe from your typical average game . it's absolutely insane to watch these awesome cinematic trailer, in your case for the first time and get the same amount of goosebumps and chills other who might have followed the series for a while . Personally for me this is how history should be taught in schools etc, such cool animations, story line and character arc and esp THE PARKOUR,.......oh my god. Subscribing to you right now so that I will get to relieve those moments of my childhood through your upcoming gameplays
22:41 Freedom Cry has one of the greatest most epic trailers of any medium, period. It was a really fun to play expansion too and Adewale is one of my fav Assassins in the franchise. My personal fav of all time is AC Origins, however.
My favorite franchise, a blend of historical fiction and sci-fi. A story that spans time and the world. It’s a story about humanity and ideologies. It’s about the Assassin fantasy, being a faceless blade in the crowd. I hope you enjoy the experience.
AC3 holds a special special place in my heart. I’m a big history buff with the revolutionary war and this has been by far my favorite of the franchise. My hope is that they one day add the mechanics from origins and odyssey to a remake of it. It would be phenomenal. That being said it is one of the best trailers ever.
Hopefully this will help: Assassin's Creed 1- Third Crusade during 1191, playable character Altair Assassin's Creed II and Brotherhood Italian Renaissance 1476-1507, playable character Ezio Assassin's Creed Revelations - Ottoman civil war 1511. Playable character Ezio. Altair playable during flashbacks. Assassin's Creed III - American Revolution 1760-1783, playable character Connor. Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag- Golden Age of Piracy 1715, Edward. Assassin's Creed Rogue - French and Indian war 1752-1760, Shay Cormac . Assassin's Creed Unity - French Revolution 1789-1794, Arno. Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Second Industrial Revolution 1868, Jacob and Evie Frye. Assassin's Creed Origins- Ptolemaic period 49-44 BC, Bayek. Assassin's Creed Odyssey - Peloponnesian War 431-422 BC, Alexios or Kassandra. Assassin's Creed Valhalla -Viking invasion of England 872-878, Eivor.
Actually the trailer where Ezio reads the letter he sent to claudia gave me chills. Dunno why they added the musical of AC Revelations Trailer. Couldve also add the road to masyaf version.
The eagle is so cool. It is the assassin motto thus their sixth sense is called eagle's vision. In fact the ac symbol is basically an eagle's skull when looked upside down(shown in the end of ac origins)
Yeeah, Im glad that you're going into this franchise.. :D Belive that you gonna enjoy it every moment! Just for the last three games, prepare more than 100 hours to complete that :D
The computer glitches you are seeing are part of the story. In this series scientists use a persons dna and using computer wizardry let the person in the machine relive their ancestors memories. In the games you go in and out of the memory simulation to find out stuff your ancestors did (both groups in this game are looking for artefacts) and theres a whole underlying story of templars vs the assassins throughout the series. Its really good. The last three are quite different from the rest. They started to steer away from the assassins for some reason. The one after egypt is set in greece but there wasnt a trailer for it. The newest one coming out has gone back to the assassins roots by the look of it.
For me it would be or 2 or brotherhood, 2 because of the giant leap from the original or Brotherhood because it refines and perfects everything good from 2. Unity has the best graphics and animations period. And Origins is the best RPG Assassin's creed game, but still dont consider them AC games just because of the levels, and cant instakill back stab with hidden blade.
so the first Assassin’s Creed takes place during the 1100’s the holy lands and his name is Altaïr, and Assassin’s Creed 2 is the Italian Renaissance and his name is Ezio they made 3 games about Ezio cause he was such a damn good character
The series is mostly historically accurate, though they changed some things to fit their narrative. Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla went to a more mythological direction, there are more fantastical elements in them than in the other entries.
@@rivenoak Further explained the process of Sages and Hybrids Showed the lives of the Norse pantheon of Isu Shows the ending of Basim’s journey for Mirage Showed the great catastrophe from another perspective Shows how the native Americans managed to acquire the apple of eden for AC3 Showed us how the Templar order was created
I admit, it’s because he had the most time to be developed through 3 games instead of one, but Ezio will always be my favorite Assassin’s Creed character.
Lol in the Valhalla trailer you said "He needs a nap" that's the English King Alfred the Great. Historically he was very ill with a rare auto -immune condition known as Crohns disease. He was a very sick man, but to us English he is one of our greatest rulers. Mainly because he was sick, but he still had the strength and courage to kick Pagan Ass. 😁
How the fuck was Odyssey left out of this compilation?! There are SOME trailers for it out there! Also YES!!!, definitely play as Kassandra whenever you get to it ;)
People would prolly tell you skip odyssey and Valhalla cause they don’t specifically have assassin but more like warriors but trust me play them anyway you would t regret it , the stories are amazing and you would regret specifically not playing odyssey very touching game
You reaction was very enjoyable. The older games may seem a bit dated but you still have a great experience since it will be your first time. You’ll love the Ezio trilogy.
WOOOOO! Was wondering if you were ever going to do this a few weeks ago! If you see this, hope you don't ever feel pressured to play these franchises(franchi?) Or react a certain way at times.
Oh wow, what a journey will be. My approach when i played all the games in order like you'll do is that i didn t do too much side content in the older games only what i felt like was worth doing so i don't get burned out. In the newer games the side content is enjoyable and i pretty much completed everything
In my opinion, there's no real "must skip" in the main line games. Fans get grumpy about one game or another in the later games, but nothing is so bad that it should be avoided all-together (main line games anyway not counting side ones).
You know, as someone who doesn't like the last two games, I have to agree. I feel like newcomers will like it. It's the earlier ones that I'm not too sure newcomers will like, AC1 especially.
@@roguescorner9042 yeah I can see that about AC1. At least when it comes to stuff like the controls. They are a little "stiff" by comparison guess compared to AC2 afterwards. With each game the physical movements evolved until they figured out what their thing was. Story is good in AC1 tho, in my opinion.
@@keny1555 Story is what elevates that game, because unfortunately it suffers a little from being aged. Stiff controls, like you said, and extremely (albeit fun for me) repetitive gameplay.
@@roguescorner9042 Yeah. its a little aged so I could understand someone only playing it only once in the modern day, if they are first familiarizing themselves with the series.
@@roguescorner9042 even if Assassin's Creed 1 is rough around the edges - especially in how it controls - it is still an essential game to play because it serves as the basis for things that will be paid off much later.
the guy at revelation is actually ezio who is also in AC 2 and brotherhood and the guy who appeared as a ghost with withe robe is actually altair who is in AC 1 the first game ,,,,, and ezio's task in revelations was to go back to masyaf ''altair homeland'' to uncover altair tomb and learn about him before he dies
If you're planning to play them all, good luck, it's a big journey. Lots of game and story content, real historical references - Best to dig in and play the games in release order so as to better understand the underlying long story. The combat is generally not hack'n' slash, go-noisy fighting - Mostly in these games, you survey an area, plan your entry/route, and move about stealthily. Do allow the earlier games (AC1 and such), a bit of leeway, cus they are older so may feel kind of restrictive after the freedom of say, arkham or witcher3.
Because it's the only AC game that has no assassins, no templars, no hidden blade, you know the basics that makes it an AC game? it had none. which makes it not an AC game, and the worst one in the series at that cuz it completely abandons the title "assassin's creed".
Hi Meghan it's so nice to see when someone comes into Contact with AC for the first Time. If there's one thing Ubisoft can do, it's Trailers for their Games and the Music. It would be really awesome if you played the AC series because overall these Games have such a fantastic Story. Since I've been an AC fan from the very Beginning, "My" Hero is of course the only true Altair (which means something like Eagle, and that's why he's always associated with AC). Of course, most of them love Ezio and he's also really cool, but "I" think they should have only made one Game with Ezio (if only with Altair) because I think it's kind of cool that you slip into a different Role in every Game the motto: One Century = One Assassin. But hat's just "my" Opinion. Well, of course it would take too long if you explained everything, especially without Spoilers, so my Advice would be to you either inform yourself about all the Games (there are so many sources) but then alone without any Information from others, or you just play off you go because at some Point you will understand the Story about AC all by yourself because you will get more and more Information from Game to Game and at some Point it will give you a perfect overall Picture, also the things with all the mysteries. But whatever you decide, I'd love to relive the AC journey with you. Until then, have a nice Weekend, have fun playing and see you soon at AC or one of your other AWESOME Videos. Lovely Greetings (also to sweet Yuna and Caleb) from Austria 🥰🥰🥰
I hadn't seen a lot of these trailers, and they are pretty awesome! The only things that annoy me are that for Syndicate, Jacob Frye is one of the main characters, yes, but the woman next to him in the trailer is the other main playable character, and the fact that that are no trailers for her is pretty weird. Especially when you consider that the main characters of both Odyssey and Valhalla were going to be women, but the studio made the developers change it so that you could choose the gender of the main character so that they didn't lose male players or something. And knowing this, and the fact that the main character of Valhalla I think IS supposed to be female, the fact that the trailer depicts a male character is kind of annoying to me. That doesn't change the quality of the games itself, of course. They're great! The studio is just shitty, and the trailers are dismissive of female main characters.
Yeah that was an odd decision for the Syndicate trailers, as it’s not even a choice at the beginning of the game, like in Odyssey and Valhalla. You literally play as them both. Also Valhalla clearly wants you to be the female Eivor, pretty sure it says that’s the default when you pick, and if you choose male, there are a few instances where people refer to you as though you are a woman.
you are a total embarrassment if even in the games you end up complaining that women are discriminated against , that they didn't make a clip with them, you suffer too much with feminism
Tha main character for Origins was also supposed to be Aya with Bayek dying quarter through the game. Also ubisoft execs believe female main characters dont sell so we wont see one until they get replaced
The first game gives a back story and each game builds on that as it progresses threw time. Love the ship combat in Black Flag. Have fun in your new adventure down this great franchise 😁
it would be a lie to say that the stories are historically accurate because they change so much of history to intertwine it with their own mythology to create this insanely creative storyline. however, the games always insert your assassin into the heart of each historical time period, so you always get to see a ton of real people and actual events unfold.
To breakdown the games: Assassin’s Creed Ezio Trilogy: Assassin’s Creed II, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, Assassin’s Creed: Revelation’s Assassin’s Creed III Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag Assassin’s Creed: Rogue Assassin’s Creed: Unity Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate New Games: Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla Unity, Rogue, and Syndicate are not seen as good as the other games, but I think if you want to try them, you can. Unity is mostly multiplayer/co-op based however, Ubisoft is shutting down the multiplayer servers so I have no idea how Unity will be affected. This also includes some of the DLC content even those that are single player, but they’d still be available in the remasters. Unfortunately Ubisoft is not a great company and seems to be doing some weird things with the AC franchise, but hopefully that won’t taint your experience. Technically everything prior to Origins is considered the “Legacy” series now. Still, they’re great games and are definitely worth playing.
Definitely don’t skip a game even if it wasn’t received well! I know lots of the community didn’t like Unity and 3 but they’re some of my absolute favorites. And I personally didn’t care for black flag but again the majority of AC fans liked it! You’ll just have to make your own decision. Good luck!
yesss meg is gonna play my favorite videogame series!! its a pretty good way to fall in love with history. I think youll like odyssey pretty much, its an rpg with a great protagonist (kassandra) some times it can get pretty emotional, and theres a lot side missions that are so funny i think youll like the humor
45:59 think it’s pretty funny you mentioned Alfred needed a nap, cause he definitely did. Idk if they mentioned it in game, but the guy had Crohn’s disease in a time where they had no real understanding or treatment for it, all while he was trying to hold on to a kingdom in Englands most turbulent time Homie definitely needed some sleep lol
24:36 they are definitely historically accurate, a lot of the side characters in the games are actual people, and the notre dame (where the bird flew over) actually close to burnt down a couple years ago, and the architects are using assassins creed unity to get references on the exterior and interior id also definitely react to the gameplay trailers!
You wanted to know how accurate the games are to real history. They are accurate enough that because of ac2 I got A in world history . I could not remember anything when I learned about Italy and their banks and politics in school because of how boring it was.
This is exciting. Also, I hope you don't skip Assassin's Creed 1. Not only does it lay the groundwork to give context to the rest of the series, but also it is one of the earliest and very few games that represented Arabs and Arabic culture in a positive light and I find that culturally very important. It's really sad that so many people skip it. Even Ubisoft themselves skipped it when they made the remastered collection (I hope the rumors about them remaking it next year is true).
This was so awesome to watch. Thank you for making this video. Really loved your reaction ♥ I wish odyssey was included in the video which is my most favorite ac game but its fine.
Very suspicious that Assassin's Creed Liberation and Assassin's Creed Odyssey both of which have female protagonist doesn't have cinematic trailer. I am watching you, Ubisoft.
I remember when ME Legendary Edition launched, Jennifer Hale recorded herself crying because Fem Shep appeared in the new trailer. Blows my mind it took that long. Also, if they had a cinematic trailer of Kassandra I would've 100% bought it by now. They only playing themselves
@@MegMage it's crazy especially because Kassandra is the "canon" character not Alexios, Ubisoft said that themselves. They repaired their mistakes with valhalla tho. If you search on youtube you will find a trailer for both the female and the male character( you saw the male one)
And we haven`t seen a cinematic trailer of AC Syndicate with the female protagonist, too. I don`t know if there doesn`t exist any trailer or if they only miss in this video.
It's weird how in Assassin's creed they always make any side the British take to be the bad side, I know it's a Hollywood stereotype, but c'mon it's old and boring, plus in Valhalla the Vikings are literally invaders and the English are defending their home and lands, the real history is very much a big part of my local area so that trailer was very insulting, the Vikings are very romanticised in that trailer
The assassin in the first trailer you saw was Altair, then in assassins creed 2, brotherhood and Revelations was Ezio. In Revelations that’s Ezio as a old man looking back at the memory of Altair ( the original assassin before him in white outfit) even though Bayak in Origins
AC black flag was my first introduction to the AC franchise and having finishing out the whole game I wasn't expecting to be blown away by a "historical assassin game" I thought the game would have been boring and a waste of time but it made me eat my words. Definitely going to be 2nd place in my list of top 5 best games I have ever played.

Had they just done the story in a different way that focused more on the creed it totally could have worked imo. lets say Eivors village in england got destroyed and he finds the creed and uses them to take revenge and eventually embracess the creed as family. I would have played that
Guys have to understand that AC, from origin to Valhalla is talkng more about beginnings of the assassins and templars, and the Isos. But almost everyone is shitting to the real lore and only wants the same ol' and NOTHING more. Thats sad
The sheer amount of charisma you get from Ezio's trailer is ABSURD. You have no reason to feel weird about it because man is SELLING IT
I am so excited to watch you play through the AC franchise! I have always loved the games and have looked for some lets plays from people going in completely blind. This series has some great stories and incredibly deep lore and I'm excited to watch you discover it!
Feeling a little jealous that you get to experience this series for the first time. There are ups and downs to the series, but I remember playing the games from 1 to Origins (not counting syndicate) with warmth. If you do tackle the series, I'll be watching you go for sure.. all the stories.. and the secrets 😉
Can’t wait for you to get into this franchise. Brotherhood is still the best but Black Flag is a close second. There are so many great games :)
Definitely agree with you on Brotherhood. Used to spend hours playing that game. Same with Revelations but I mostly played multiplayer
Ac3 is number 1
@@rezponze-g6e for each, their own.
Black flag and origins are my favorites
Everybody knows that AC2 is the best(by far)
These trailers are still so good all these years later, the company that made most of these cinematics has also made a bunch for CDPR and Bioware too, extremely talented people, looking forward to you're first AC game! :D
That explains why I like them so much. I'm not a huge gamer and only play a couple of games a year, but the Killing Monsters trailer and A Night To Remember for the Witcher always struck a chord with me. It's why I played that game in the first place, and why it's now unquestionably my favorite game of all time.
honestly all the games have something i like about them, even if i have my faves idk if there’s anything that i HATE. maybe it’s just bc i’ve never been super critical of games, but i can’t wait to watch you play all these !!
"BLACK BEARD said that?!" Well, Edward "Black Beard" Thatch/Teach may have been one of the most infamous (through theatrics) pirate of the time, and across about 9 years he robbed about 40 ships, which is quite impressive. However, debuting a couple years after Beard's death, John/Bartholomew "Black Bart" Roberts put him and every pirate before and after to shame, robbing over 300 ships in only 3 years!
The fact that you immediately swooned over Ezio and Edward with like zero context is a mood
God what a nostalgia trip. Assassins Creed has had a few missteps but damn, genuinely one of the greatest series ever created.
Happy to see you reacted to these and looking forward to your play throughs. This series will always hold a special place in my heart since I love history and mythology and seeing events and people through these lens is fascinating. Hope you enjoy them!
Watching all these again revived my hype for this series, I'm looking forward to the AC Mirage reveal. Glad to see you diving into these as well; I think the continuing theme of resisting the cruel and power-hungry is right up your alley. Honestly they're all worth checking out, it's just a matter of how much time you have.
I have the whole saga of assassin's Creed playing it since I was in middle school I believed my brother introduced the first one and I was hook on it. They are WORTH IT!!!
The AC: Odessey was missing from this trailer compilation but other then that yeah that's all the main line AC games you should play
Here's the general timeline the games take place in:
AC1 = crusades
AC2 = renaissance Italy
AC Brotherhood = renaissance Italy during the Borgias
AC Revelations = Renaissance shortly after the capture of Istanbul by the Turks
(From AC2 to AC Revelations is the life of Ezio Auditore)
AC3 = American Revolution
AC black flag = pirates (freedom cry is a dlc)
AC Rogue = more pirates with a twist
(I haven't kept upto date with Assassin's creed since then)
AC Origins: birth of assassins and is same period of time with Julius Caesar and Cleopatra
AC Odyssey: full of mythology with Greek gods and is happening few years after Leonidas death
Since when did Rogue became a pirate game? 😂
@@Sadra_vi you raid and steal from French, British and Spanish ships.
That's called piracy
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33 privateering would be the correct term.
@@georgeprchal3924 it's only privateering if you serve a country and only attack ships and ports belonging to a nation your sponsor is at war with, the moment you cross that line it's piracy
2:49 you can see Altair sneaking from the left side😏
Yes! I can't wait to see you play the Assassin's Creed series, it's one of my favorite franchises of all time.
"Where's the hooded assassin?" EXACTLY
Man havent watched these trailers in so long, still sends shivers down my spine to this day
24:14
It's not just a bird
It's an ✨Eagle✨
AC 3 was the first game I was able to play and connor still holds my heart. his story, the way he struggled living in seemingly two worlds. the trailer gave me chills still
I have only recently found your channel and am enjoying watching the playthroughs of Assassins Creed. Love how you knew who Ezio was before playing these games, one of the best characters of any game in history and he is still very much the icon of this series
Assassin's creed is just different Vibe from your typical average game . it's absolutely insane to watch these awesome cinematic trailer, in your case for the first time and get the same amount of goosebumps and chills other who might have followed the series for a while . Personally for me this is how history should be taught in schools etc, such cool animations, story line and character arc and esp THE PARKOUR,.......oh my god. Subscribing to you right now so that I will get to relieve those moments of my childhood through your upcoming gameplays
22:41 Freedom Cry has one of the greatest most epic trailers of any medium, period. It was a really fun to play expansion too and Adewale is one of my fav Assassins in the franchise. My personal fav of all time is AC Origins, however.
My favorite franchise, a blend of historical fiction and sci-fi. A story that spans time and the world. It’s a story about humanity and ideologies. It’s about the Assassin fantasy, being a faceless blade in the crowd. I hope you enjoy the experience.
AC3 holds a special special place in my heart. I’m a big history buff with the revolutionary war and this has been by far my favorite of the franchise. My hope is that they one day add the mechanics from origins and odyssey to a remake of it. It would be phenomenal. That being said it is one of the best trailers ever.
AC trailers were always amazing BUT trust me the games are even more amazing 🤩
U will feel in a different world
Hopefully this will help:
Assassin's Creed 1- Third Crusade during 1191, playable character Altair
Assassin's Creed II and Brotherhood Italian Renaissance 1476-1507, playable character Ezio
Assassin's Creed Revelations - Ottoman civil war 1511. Playable character Ezio. Altair playable during flashbacks.
Assassin's Creed III - American Revolution 1760-1783, playable character Connor.
Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag- Golden Age of Piracy 1715, Edward.
Assassin's Creed Rogue - French and Indian war 1752-1760, Shay Cormac .
Assassin's Creed Unity - French Revolution 1789-1794, Arno.
Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Second Industrial Revolution 1868, Jacob and Evie Frye.
Assassin's Creed Origins- Ptolemaic period 49-44 BC, Bayek.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey - Peloponnesian War 431-422 BC, Alexios or Kassandra.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla -Viking invasion of England 872-878, Eivor.
You missed AC liberation..
Actually the trailer where Ezio reads the letter he sent to claudia gave me chills. Dunno why they added the musical of AC Revelations Trailer. Couldve also add the road to masyaf version.
Man this video brought back my whole childhood. Assassin's Creed use to be sooo good
AC revelations and AC 3 are life ❤ ❤
The eagle is so cool. It is the assassin motto thus their sixth sense is called eagle's vision. In fact the ac symbol is basically an eagle's skull when looked upside down(shown in the end of ac origins)
Yeeah, Im glad that you're going into this franchise.. :D Belive that you gonna enjoy it every moment! Just for the last three games, prepare more than 100 hours to complete that :D
The computer glitches you are seeing are part of the story. In this series scientists use a persons dna and using computer wizardry let the person in the machine relive their ancestors memories. In the games you go in and out of the memory simulation to find out stuff your ancestors did (both groups in this game are looking for artefacts) and theres a whole underlying story of templars vs the assassins throughout the series. Its really good.
The last three are quite different from the rest. They started to steer away from the assassins for some reason. The one after egypt is set in greece but there wasnt a trailer for it. The newest one coming out has gone back to the assassins roots by the look of it.
Assassin's Creed Origins is by far the best game, in my opinion! Loved the setting and the main character story.
For me it would be or 2 or brotherhood, 2 because of the giant leap from the original or Brotherhood because it refines and perfects everything good from 2. Unity has the best graphics and animations period. And Origins is the best RPG Assassin's creed game, but still dont consider them AC games just because of the levels, and cant instakill back stab with hidden blade.
Origins and black flag my two favorites and odyssey is my second favorite.
It’s brotherhood and origins for me
@@youtubehero1764 yeah brotherhood is good too.
MALAKA!!
so the first Assassin’s Creed takes place during the 1100’s the holy lands and his name is Altaïr, and Assassin’s Creed 2 is the Italian Renaissance and his name is Ezio they made 3 games about Ezio cause he was such a damn good character
The series is mostly historically accurate, though they changed some things to fit their narrative. Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla went to a more mythological direction, there are more fantastical elements in them than in the other entries.
Honestly surprised that Odyssey never got a single cinematic trailer. I always forget that.
Don’t skip any of them, to really enjoy the series, you have to play them all
you may skip valhalla though. it is the most un-AC game of the franchise ?
@@rivenoak not really, it actually adds a shit ton to the lore
@@carwynwilliams7398 what lore was added ?
@@rivenoak Further explained the process of Sages and Hybrids
Showed the lives of the Norse pantheon of Isu
Shows the ending of Basim’s journey for Mirage
Showed the great catastrophe from another perspective
Shows how the native Americans managed to acquire the apple of eden for AC3
Showed us how the Templar order was created
@@rivenoak I'd skip Odyssey over Valhalla tbh.
I LOVE Assassin's Creed. I look back on the trailers and remember them fondly. I can't even decide which I liked best.
I admit, it’s because he had the most time to be developed through 3 games instead of one, but Ezio will always be my favorite Assassin’s Creed character.
Altair still remains the best
Personaly my favorites are Altair Arno and Ezio
Lol in the Valhalla trailer you said "He needs a nap" that's the English King Alfred the Great. Historically he was very ill with a rare auto -immune condition known as Crohns disease. He was a very sick man, but to us English he is one of our greatest rulers.
Mainly because he was sick, but he still had the strength and courage to kick Pagan Ass. 😁
Can't wait to see how you like these games, especially Black Flag, Unity and Origins are amazing in my opinion
Unity is a severely underrated game, same as AC III.
How the fuck was Odyssey left out of this compilation?! There are SOME trailers for it out there! Also YES!!!, definitely play as Kassandra whenever you get to it ;)
The Ezio trilogy is great but tbh I'm super excited for you to play Odyssey! Kassandra is everythiiiing.
nah ive played as guy, kassandra as vilain was so epic
People would prolly tell you skip odyssey and Valhalla cause they don’t specifically have assassin but more like warriors but trust me play them anyway you would t regret it , the stories are amazing and you would regret specifically not playing odyssey very touching game
You reaction was very enjoyable. The older games may seem a bit dated but you still have a great experience since it will be your first time. You’ll love the Ezio trilogy.
Subscribed. The chance to see someone go through the AC series would be very nostalgic.
WOOOOO! Was wondering if you were ever going to do this a few weeks ago! If you see this, hope you don't ever feel pressured to play these franchises(franchi?) Or react a certain way at times.
Oh wow, what a journey will be. My approach when i played all the games in order like you'll do is that i didn t do too much side content in the older games only what i felt like was worth doing so i don't get burned out. In the newer games the side content is enjoyable and i pretty much completed everything
In my opinion, there's no real "must skip" in the main line games. Fans get grumpy about one game or another in the later games, but nothing is so bad that it should be avoided all-together (main line games anyway not counting side ones).
You know, as someone who doesn't like the last two games, I have to agree. I feel like newcomers will like it. It's the earlier ones that I'm not too sure newcomers will like, AC1 especially.
@@roguescorner9042 yeah I can see that about AC1. At least when it comes to stuff like the controls. They are a little "stiff" by comparison guess compared to AC2 afterwards. With each game the physical movements evolved until they figured out what their thing was. Story is good in AC1 tho, in my opinion.
@@keny1555 Story is what elevates that game, because unfortunately it suffers a little from being aged. Stiff controls, like you said, and extremely (albeit fun for me) repetitive gameplay.
@@roguescorner9042 Yeah. its a little aged so I could understand someone only playing it only once in the modern day, if they are first familiarizing themselves with the series.
@@roguescorner9042 even if Assassin's Creed 1 is rough around the edges - especially in how it controls - it is still an essential game to play because it serves as the basis for things that will be paid off much later.
the guy at revelation is actually ezio who is also in AC 2 and brotherhood and the guy who appeared as a ghost with withe robe is actually altair who is in AC 1 the first game ,,,,, and ezio's task in revelations was to go back to masyaf ''altair homeland'' to uncover altair tomb and learn about him before he dies
ac odyssey had such a good story they didn't even bother showing its trailer xD
Girl, I ENVY you, being able to experience Assassin's Creed for the very first time!
If you're planning to play them all, good luck, it's a big journey. Lots of game and story content, real historical references - Best to dig in and play the games in release order so as to better understand the underlying long story. The combat is generally not hack'n' slash, go-noisy fighting - Mostly in these games, you survey an area, plan your entry/route, and move about stealthily. Do allow the earlier games (AC1 and such), a bit of leeway, cus they are older so may feel kind of restrictive after the freedom of say, arkham or witcher3.
Muahaha the "so where is the assassin ?" during the AC Valhalla trailer was perfect. That's what a lot of fans thought too.
How did this compilation miss AC: Odyssey, its a great game, between Origins and Valhalla
Perhaps it did not make it to this list due to not having a cinematic trailer of it's own, but I agree that it's a good game.
Came here so say exactly this! How the hell did the video skip Odyssey?
Because it's the only AC game that has no assassins, no templars, no hidden blade, you know the basics that makes it an AC game? it had none. which makes it not an AC game, and the worst one in the series at that cuz it completely abandons the title "assassin's creed".
It's not gonna be in the CINEMATIC trailer compilation if it doesn't have a cinematic trailer
@@Amir_shadyy Top 5 for me personally
8:58 Tobuscus thought the same 😂😂
Hi Meghan it's so nice to see when someone comes into Contact with AC for the first Time. If there's one thing Ubisoft can do, it's Trailers for their Games and the Music. It would be really awesome if you played the AC series because overall these Games have such a fantastic Story.
Since I've been an AC fan from the very Beginning, "My" Hero is of course the only true Altair (which means something like Eagle, and that's why he's always associated with AC). Of course, most of them love Ezio and he's also really cool, but "I" think they should have only made one Game with Ezio (if only with Altair) because I think it's kind of cool that you slip into a different Role in every Game the motto: One Century = One Assassin. But hat's just "my" Opinion.
Well, of course it would take too long if you explained everything, especially without Spoilers, so my Advice would be to you either inform yourself about all the Games (there are so many sources) but then alone without any Information from others, or you just play off you go because at some Point you will understand the Story about AC all by yourself because you will get more and more Information from Game to Game and at some Point it will give you a perfect overall Picture, also the things with all the mysteries. But whatever you decide, I'd love to relive the AC journey with you. Until then, have a nice Weekend, have fun playing and see you soon at AC or one of your other AWESOME Videos. Lovely Greetings (also to sweet Yuna and Caleb) from Austria 🥰🥰🥰
The “I just met him” was funny to me during revelation trailer.
Ezio, Shay and Bayek the three best written characters in the work
when she called altair ezio i started dying
I hadn't seen a lot of these trailers, and they are pretty awesome! The only things that annoy me are that for Syndicate, Jacob Frye is one of the main characters, yes, but the woman next to him in the trailer is the other main playable character, and the fact that that are no trailers for her is pretty weird. Especially when you consider that the main characters of both Odyssey and Valhalla were going to be women, but the studio made the developers change it so that you could choose the gender of the main character so that they didn't lose male players or something. And knowing this, and the fact that the main character of Valhalla I think IS supposed to be female, the fact that the trailer depicts a male character is kind of annoying to me. That doesn't change the quality of the games itself, of course. They're great! The studio is just shitty, and the trailers are dismissive of female main characters.
Yeah that was an odd decision for the Syndicate trailers, as it’s not even a choice at the beginning of the game, like in Odyssey and Valhalla. You literally play as them both. Also Valhalla clearly wants you to be the female Eivor, pretty sure it says that’s the default when you pick, and if you choose male, there are a few instances where people refer to you as though you are a woman.
Gonna cry?
you are a total embarrassment if even in the games you end up complaining that women are discriminated against , that they didn't make a clip with them, you suffer too much with feminism
Tha main character for Origins was also supposed to be Aya with Bayek dying quarter through the game. Also ubisoft execs believe female main characters dont sell so we wont see one until they get replaced
The first game gives a back story and each game builds on that as it progresses threw time. Love the ship combat in Black Flag. Have fun in your new adventure down this great franchise 😁
it would be a lie to say that the stories are historically accurate because they change so much of history to intertwine it with their own mythology to create this insanely creative storyline. however, the games always insert your assassin into the heart of each historical time period, so you always get to see a ton of real people and actual events unfold.
Connor Kenway, the Forrest Gump Of American Revolution.
@@araisikewai this is actually a great way of putting it. every AC protaganist is a Forrest Gump.
To breakdown the games:
Assassin’s Creed
Ezio Trilogy: Assassin’s Creed II, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, Assassin’s Creed: Revelation’s
Assassin’s Creed III
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag
Assassin’s Creed: Rogue
Assassin’s Creed: Unity
Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate
New Games: Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla
Unity, Rogue, and Syndicate are not seen as good as the other games, but I think if you want to try them, you can. Unity is mostly multiplayer/co-op based however, Ubisoft is shutting down the multiplayer servers so I have no idea how Unity will be affected. This also includes some of the DLC content even those that are single player, but they’d still be available in the remasters.
Unfortunately Ubisoft is not a great company and seems to be doing some weird things with the AC franchise, but hopefully that won’t taint your experience. Technically everything prior to Origins is considered the “Legacy” series now. Still, they’re great games and are definitely worth playing.
did you know that the world accuracy of AC unity was so good they used it for the remodeling of the Notre Dame after it caught fire
Definitely don’t skip a game even if it wasn’t received well! I know lots of the community didn’t like Unity and 3 but they’re some of my absolute favorites. And I personally didn’t care for black flag but again the majority of AC fans liked it! You’ll just have to make your own decision. Good luck!
Unity is amazing im playing it right non for the first time and i love it
yesss meg is gonna play my favorite videogame series!! its a pretty good way to fall in love with history. I think youll like odyssey pretty much, its an rpg with a great protagonist (kassandra) some times it can get pretty emotional, and theres a lot side missions that are so funny i think youll like the humor
That was old Ezio in the Revelations trailer. Finding out about his connection with Altair and Desmond.
45:59 think it’s pretty funny you mentioned Alfred needed a nap, cause he definitely did.
Idk if they mentioned it in game, but the guy had Crohn’s disease in a time where they had no real understanding or treatment for it, all while he was trying to hold on to a kingdom in Englands most turbulent time
Homie definitely needed some sleep lol
But there is a new trailer now
24:36 they are definitely historically accurate, a lot of the side characters in the games are actual people, and the notre dame (where the bird flew over) actually close to burnt down a couple years ago, and the architects are using assassins creed unity to get references on the exterior and interior
id also definitely react to the gameplay trailers!
You wanted to know how accurate the games are to real history. They are accurate enough that because of ac2 I got A in world history . I could not remember anything when I learned about Italy and their banks and politics in school because of how boring it was.
The head tilt in the AC 2 trailer lives rent free in my head
This is exciting. Also, I hope you don't skip Assassin's Creed 1. Not only does it lay the groundwork to give context to the rest of the series, but also it is one of the earliest and very few games that represented Arabs and Arabic culture in a positive light and I find that culturally very important. It's really sad that so many people skip it. Even Ubisoft themselves skipped it when they made the remastered collection (I hope the rumors about them remaking it next year is true).
She plans on playing the 1st assassin's creed no worries.
"Umm daddy, sorry daddy" 🤣 killing me. Subscribed and definitely will be watching your reactions to these games
This was so awesome to watch. Thank you for making this video. Really loved your reaction ♥
I wish odyssey was included in the video which is my most favorite ac game but its fine.
Yesssss!!!! I'm so happy you got to see the greatest view song from Flume combined with unity is fire 🔥
Very suspicious that Assassin's Creed Liberation and Assassin's Creed Odyssey both of which have female protagonist doesn't have cinematic trailer. I am watching you, Ubisoft.
I remember when ME Legendary Edition launched, Jennifer Hale recorded herself crying because Fem Shep appeared in the new trailer. Blows my mind it took that long. Also, if they had a cinematic trailer of Kassandra I would've 100% bought it by now. They only playing themselves
@@MegMage it's crazy especially because Kassandra is the "canon" character not Alexios, Ubisoft said that themselves.
They repaired their mistakes with valhalla tho. If you search on youtube you will find a trailer for both the female and the male character( you saw the male one)
And we haven`t seen a cinematic trailer of AC Syndicate with the female protagonist, too. I don`t know if there doesn`t exist any trailer or if they only miss in this video.
It's weird how in Assassin's creed they always make any side the British take to be the bad side, I know it's a Hollywood stereotype, but c'mon it's old and boring, plus in Valhalla the Vikings are literally invaders and the English are defending their home and lands, the real history is very much a big part of my local area so that trailer was very insulting, the Vikings are very romanticised in that trailer
yall mfs always gotta make shit about gender 💀
I cannot WAIT for you to start this series!! It's truly wonderful
They skipped odyssey
The assassin in the first trailer you saw was Altair, then in assassins creed 2, brotherhood and Revelations was Ezio. In Revelations that’s Ezio as a old man looking back at the memory of Altair ( the original assassin before him in white outfit) even though Bayak in Origins
AC black flag was my first introduction to the AC franchise and having finishing out the whole game I wasn't expecting to be blown away by a "historical assassin game" I thought the game would have been boring and a waste of time but it made me eat my words. Definitely going to be 2nd place in my list of top 5 best games I have ever played.
Al-Tair appears
she: who's that???? (literally saw the 1st trailer)
also she: oooooo eagle!........that's a disgrace
