An important thing to look for in an AC parkour system is whether or not you can actually be good or bad at it, room for improvement and skill expression is what I want out of Mirage parkour most of all
No one can make the last 3 games, especially Odyssey, look good. They fucked up the games for no reason other than "we got bored, wanted to try new things". The fucked up the game to its core (parkour, stealth, ac atmosphere). U have beautiful looking maps like Ancient greece and a fcking disgusting movement/parkour mechanic to fuck everything up and make you legit delete the game after 10 minutes of gameplay. SO sad
It is so sad to see that some people that have no skill doing this vids and getting millions of clicks, meanwhile content creators like you and many others that have actually knowledge about the game get overlooked
Can you really blame them? The games themselves don't really encourage you doing parkour fast or doing the ejects for the vast majority of the game. You can also finish the games just fine doing very basic parkour
The older games do, that was the point of the tomb missions, they taught you how and when was best to use ejects and catch ledge. The games being playable completely without advanced input is just the games being accessible for newcomers, low skill floor high skill ceiling
@@Wbubbles3998 but unlike game with advanced movement systems like sunset overdrive, even the older games are still beatable with the skill floor mechanics. Sure the tomb missions do occasionally tell you to back eject, but that's like a few times. So how I played the games (being the skill floor) the parkour can be pretty boring since all you do is hold R2, X and point the stick to a direction. But that's me
@@teneesh3376 But that’s because you never bothered to learn. The game gave you everything you needed to play better and you chose to ignore it. That’s not a bad thing on your part (it’s just how you enjoyed playing) but the game hasn’t done anything wrong by allowing you to play it comfortably at a basic level, the advanced moves aren’t for people like you, they’re for people who enjoyed the core gameplay enough to want to delve deeper You certainly can play it without being too skilled but the process becomes noticeably more fun, engaging, fast and rewarding when you take the time to learn the mechanics properly and experiment with them
@@Wbubbles3998 you're right. But I just think there needed to be more missions or time trials that required the advanced mechanics. Cause only needing to do it a couple of times throughout the first 4 game is kinda underused. Causs without that, you honest do it just cause you can do it. I know I'm not in the minority cause of the many people saying each game has better parkour. That means that most people used the basic mechanics
Yeah, wasn’t worth my time recording a new clip for a game I don’t like and is identical to its predecessor. Same reason Rogue doesn’t get a proper demonstration
@@Wbubbles3998I actually disagree with the rouge one Shay gets his own animations honestly if you were gonna skip one of the colonial games I’d skip 4 because it literally didnt add anything onto 3s at least Shay has unique animations
@@Fallen-gryphon 4 has different animations to 3 too though, your point doesn’t really make sense. I didn’t properly include rogue because it’s shit and I didn’t want to go on it to get a long clip
@@Wbubbles3998 How dare you! It certainly isn't that bad. It mostly follows the model of the last two games, with sprinklings of Unity animations for transitions and such.
Every eject in this video is for the sake of speed or style, these are planned out routes to get the most out of the mechanics. If I were just holding a button and moving forward it wouldn’t be very interesting to watch Ac is about style
@@Wbubbles3998 you back ejected on the same platform you were already standing on and then ran up the exact same wall pressing x or a every time you run up a wall don't make it more advanced you're are literally just holding a button and clicking x or a everytime you go to climb a wall matter of fact it stops it from being stylish
Yeah, it would be ideal to have the control and precision of the first 4 with the flashiness of Unity, although idk how feasible that would be for them to make
@@Wbubbles3998wow, you answered me quickly, I didn't even expect you to answer me in less than 3 minutes. But i think the first clip of AC 1 was really good, But as the video went on it started to get weird, like sometimes you need slow down and think to make an better jump, but like in AC 4 clip you looks like a little lost, just jumping everywhere with no reason, or AC Revelations where you almost don't use the Hookblade, but that is the best part of the parkour in the game, and looks like you forget her existense and other thinks that make some clips a bit boring, just side/back ejecting with no reason and missing somethings, this video is just is a normal video, nothing so different than others.
1 - Masterful use of Parkour 2 - Masterful use of Ezio's Family B - Masterful use of Rome's geometry Re - Masterful use of the hookblade 3 - Masterful use of Connor's new moves 4 - *And that's why he's the goat!!* L - Masterful navigation of Louisiana Ro - Masterful use of a Templar U - Masterful use of the Parkour up and down Ori - Masterful Ody - Yes V - "i mean it's allright" You have the right to boast, Brother
nah valhalla was a much better improvement and people have to start acknowledging that , i agree the game is long asf with no major involvement with assassins but it did many things right compared to its modern predecessors
That’s very true, but I feel so much of the incredible character work and fun levels are buried under mounds of boring, grindy Viking bs that I didn’t enjoy too much. You’re definitely right but it doesn’t mean much because the game hides its good qualities under hundreds of hours of padding
Even though I absolutely love the old parkour system, Unity still had the most satisfying parkour to me. It hit just the right spot of style and smoothness that an Assassin should have. I hope Mirage's parkour is like a mix of both, with Unity's style and flow and the old games' accuracy and skill level.
Don't get me wrong, Unity has the best graphics, the best fighting system and the best parkour. But it's anything but smooth. It feels really clunky, and it's something that I never got used to, despite being a good game after being patched.
AC1 parkour "feels" the best when u actually PLAY it, it is gritty and Altair is an input sl^ve ac unity looks best, it has fluid af animations. but often these animations dont really interact with the geometry/environment/ingame object quite well. not to mention arno will become sentient and often do weird skips/leaps/jumps into obstacles, floats around defying gravity, some animations lacks any weight and grabs into walls like magic magnet. and what not ac1 never has that. it is simple, yet altair's movement animation looks more graceful and even better than AC2 ACbrotherhood where ezio feels like plastic
Be careful with Syndicate on the ps5 guys. I’m no technician or expert, but I’ve heard that prolonged usage can damage the console due to those graphic bugs. Great vid anyway! So smooth, especially from 1 to Revelations, where the game actually allows you to show how good you are.
The fact that you included Liberation along with great parkour is legendary 🎉 people over look Aveline but her parkour and skillset is absolutely wonderful
@@Wbubbles3998what did you play AC1 on? PlayStation? I noticed you played Syndicate on the PS5 so if you played AC1 on the PS3 I’d love to know how said buttsliding (pole vaulting) works as I can’t seem to figure it out 😅
AC3 parkour isn’t really the greatest imo. it’s hard to make it look good due to the terrain not being built around it, and the auto climbing and lack of ability to snake due to the loss of holding X for a full sprint which would normally prevent you from climbing things you don’t want to is really frustrating. like at least in the ezio games and AC1 you had a standard run and then a full sprint by holding X, but AC3 doesn’t have that, which makes the parkour extremely frustrating sometimes
Using evie for the syndicate section is like using Aya for origins. They aren't the protagonists but playable support characters. Jacob and Bayek deserve more love. And people should understand that origins and syndicate aren't choice games like odyssey and valhalla.
@@Wbubbles3998 not really, tho. Evie is always making me cringe with Henry, and she can't even kill any templars. She is a bad assassin. Evie has no character progression and very weak depth of character when compared to Jacob. Jacob is the main protagonist over evie for good reason. Not only was Jacob the only protagonist when the game was originally conceptualised as Victory, but Jacob has the gang, Jacob has the better character depth and progression, Jacob has a better story, and Jacob has the best personality as well. Evie is weak. She is only popular with people who don't understand the game, and she is popular with people who always favour women.
Weirdly enough, Odyssey’s parkour design in its cities isn’t actually that bad. You can often comfortably get from one end of the city to the other on rooftops and jumping across trees and beams. Doesn’t make it fun but the design isn’t terrible to be fair
can't quite put my finger on it, but ever since 3 it feels like the parkour has been losing flow and becoming more weightless. the only inconsistency i can think of in the old system is vaults teleporting you in ac1. but in ac3 and on, especially unity, each jump feels different. like some are faster and some are slower etc. it's not as bad in 3 and 4 as it is in unity and onwards but it just doesn't feel as right as the old system
yeah, sometimes Arno does jumps that fling him across France and other times refuses to make smaller jumps. And some times while climbing a wall he jumps up heights twice his size but other times refuses to just stretch his arm up a bit to grab a nearby ledge. It's very inconsistent and weightless. People say Unity has the best parkour but IMHO it's the worse one. Sure some animations are awesome and it looks great when it works properly, but mechanically and the gravity defying jumps and the inconsistency make it the worst parkour in the franchise (except for the one in the RPG games obviously)
@@numbron803 calling it the worst is harsh, but you're right unfortunately. when you compare it to all games before, it's definitely a downgrade in many cases. but it had many great things going for it. it just lacked consistency, polish, and control. it's sad cause it had great potential to be one of the best systems, but the rushed development made it the opposite.
Still would have some legitimate fundamental flaws like how automated the targeting system is and lack of animation cancelling, it could have been quite good but I don’t think it would have ever compared to the original games because of how much agency you have in them and the freedom to do whatever you want whenever you want, Unity is very rigid despite the animations showing you otherwise
@@gummypusswatterson1322 exactly, Unity's gameplay had potential to be the best in the series but because of the rushed and unfinished state of everything in that game, it instead is very mediocre. They focused to much on the graphics and not enough on the gameplay and stability. Here's hoping Mirage will be a perfected version of Unity, but I won't hold my breath for it..
@@Wbubbles3998 Yeah, I've recently been replaying the games. I'm currently playing Brotherhood on PC and Unity on PS4 Pro and I've noticed that Unity's parkour isn't as good and smooth as it looks on RUclips and as I remembered it being. Coupled with the atrocious performance it has on ps4 and I realized how much better and "free" the OG parkour used to be and feel.
Unity has hands down the best parkour, but can be extremely clunky. Origins has boring parkour, but is very reactive and easy to use. A mixture between these two would be amazing. I'm slightly optimistic about Mirage.
Dude they need to show this video on Parkour experts react channel. The one that they showed there wasn't even the proper demonstration of parkour from these games.
Syndicate parkour is terrible too tbf, it ended at Unity if we’re being real I can’t express how much of a nightmare it was to put together this fairly mediocre Syndicate clip
Is there a specific method you employ when learning the mechanics of an AC game? I noticed that you mention it occasionally in your comments that you know how the games work very well.
It’s not that I have any specific methods, it’s just that I’ve been playing this franchise for over a decade and I’ve replayed most of these games countless times and looked into their development and the way they’re designed, to the point where their moments of jank and inconsistencies are second nature to me and I know how to consistently avoid them It becomes very obvious that these games aren’t the most mechanically complex and the complexity comes from your knowledge of when and where to use the limited mechanics in new ways, either to move faster or just to show off and be flashy. Most of the skills are transferable from one game to the next Even in Unity you can use your knowledge from the previous games to improve your gameplay like knowing to use poles to climb faster or knowing to release the climb button when cornering to not accidentally climb up something. Very basic things in reality that none of the games properly taught you (None of this applies to Odyssey and Valhalla because I find very little of value in those games and I don’t want to take the time to get good at them)
@@Wbubbles3998 Thanks for the response. I got interested in this because I've recently started replaying AC Unity and I forgot how frustratingly inconsistent this game is. Especially when I solo Coop Missions or Heists. There are times when Arno simply refuses to Air Assassinate a Smoke Bombed target or guard. I've yet to rage quit an AC game...
Great work. 👏🏽 I would've liked to have seen Adéwalé... but IV, FC and Rogue are all essentially the same. My favorite to watch in this video was Aveline de Grandpré from Liberation to be honest though. Keep the content coming my guy. "We are Assassin's." Cheers! 🤙🏽
It used to be all fucked up when playing it on Ps5, it was patched thankfully though so it’s no longer an issue I do plan to remake this video at one point with Mirage so I’ll be sure to get a new Syndicate clip too
It’s fine. Depends why you play Ac to begin with, its story is fairly mediocre imo but if you’re a big gameplay guy, it’s almost identical to Black Flag so you’d probably enjoy it
@@Wbubbles3998honestly it’s kinda hard to make AC3 parkour look good. the main issue is that the maps aren’t really designed that well around parkour unlike AC1 and the ezio trilogy. honestly liberation’s level design is much better than AC3 for parkour
Even if Valhalla has better parkour than Origins and Odyssey, it still is an involution from what we had since AC 1 and I mean it, it all feels pretty automated now and movement feels like I'm playing Ghost Of Tsushima or any other game which developers aren't very keen on, or don't know much about real parkour physics
Parkour and climbing in Valhalla is 10000% better than Ghost of Tsushima. Both great games otherwise, but Valhalla is just hands down better for parkour and climbing.
ruclips.net/video/m2c6tuu8JOE/видео.html Great video by Leo K to help you understand the basics, there’s some more advanced stuff you can do but it will likely come naturally as it did for me
Hot take: All games aside Origins, valhalla, odyssey have good or decent parkour you just have to have skill (yes even mirage is solid). AC isn't really hard to play but it's challenging to master and make look really good.
@@Wbubbles3998 syndicate was so mid I didn't even finish it I just assumed it has the same enging as Unity so it can't be THAT bad. But yes from the clips I've seen it did seem pretty shallow even for good ac players.
It has the same basic framework and some animations from Unity but it feels very different to actually play They gutted most of the advanced moves from Unity
Um, I’m not 100% sure tbh. Just kinda hold climb and push the direction and they’ll usually do it within reason. You’ve usually got to be a little above the object you want to jump to though
Though I love to explore and exploit every aspects of the gameplay mechanics like parkour, assassinations and so on. I mainly focus on the story to actually critic if an AC game is good or bad. Am I weird?😅
Not at all, the story of the first 4 games is what I love about them most. The brilliant blend of history and sci-fi, the interwoven stories across centuries, the boldness and willingness to be something unique and interesting. There truly was nothing like Assassin’s Creed back in the day, and tbh there isn’t anything like it now either
This video, with someone who is great at AC parkour in it, shows how much of a downgrade origins/odyssey/Valhalla parkour is They improved a lot from odyssey to Valhalla but that’s onto because they built in actual parkour things like signs and poles sticking out of walls
i hate valhalla with a passion but the music is some of the best from the entire franchise its too bad the games audio is compressed to the point where you cant hear how it truly sounds
I would actually play Unity in 2023 as you got too much parkour opportunity plus you dont have a ride like Bayek xD so you I will go everywhere jumping
It’s not something you can do at will, Bayek will do it at certain points if you line up a jump properly but it’s not very consistent because you can’t manually jump like in Unity

Unity has hands down the best parkour, but can be extremely clunky. Origins has boring parkour, but is very reactive and easy to use. A mixture between these two would be amazing.
I'm slightly optimistic about Mirage.
Ac1 has the best and most responsive parkour. Unity has the flashiest animations
yea it always bugged me that the one thing no one had any complaints about with unity was the parkour and thats what they decided to take out.
I have plenty of complaints about Unity’s parkour
I wish they would take inspiration from Unity for the making of Mirage. Honestly it has the best combat and parkour from the franchise
*devolution 😅
Dude they need to show this video on Parkour experts react channel. The one that they showed there wasn't even the proper demonstration of parkour from these games.
I actually can’t believe this 6 minute compilation I made on my phone in iMovie kinda took off
The evolution part of the video ended at syndicate
Syndicate parkour is terrible too tbf, it ended at Unity if we’re being real
I can’t express how much of a nightmare it was to put together this fairly mediocre Syndicate clip
@@Wbubbles3998@Wbubbles3998 yea like the removal of manual jumps sucked.but animations wise it was aight. Great clips btw
I think the animations often look pretty bad tbh, but thanks for the kind words
Is there a specific method you employ when learning the mechanics of an AC game? I noticed that you mention it occasionally in your comments that you know how the games work very well.
It’s not that I have any specific methods, it’s just that I’ve been playing this franchise for over a decade and I’ve replayed most of these games countless times and looked into their development and the way they’re designed, to the point where their moments of jank and inconsistencies are second nature to me and I know how to consistently avoid them
It becomes very obvious that these games aren’t the most mechanically complex and the complexity comes from your knowledge of when and where to use the limited mechanics in new ways, either to move faster or just to show off and be flashy. Most of the skills are transferable from one game to the next
Even in Unity you can use your knowledge from the previous games to improve your gameplay like knowing to use poles to climb faster or knowing to release the climb button when cornering to not accidentally climb up something. Very basic things in reality that none of the games properly taught you
(None of this applies to Odyssey and Valhalla because I find very little of value in those games and I don’t want to take the time to get good at them)
@@Wbubbles3998 Thanks for the response.
I got interested in this because I've recently started replaying AC Unity and I forgot how frustratingly inconsistent this game is. Especially when I solo Coop Missions or Heists. There are times when Arno simply refuses to Air Assassinate a Smoke Bombed target or guard. I've yet to rage quit an AC game...
@@matys6760 Ooh yeah lol trying to solo a Unity co op mission or heist is absolute hell
Great work. 👏🏽 I would've liked to have seen Adéwalé... but IV, FC and Rogue are all essentially the same. My favorite to watch in this video was Aveline de Grandpré from Liberation to be honest though. Keep the content coming my guy. "We are Assassin's." Cheers! 🤙🏽
I don’t actually own Freedom Cry
Damn you're so good at parkour 😮
Buttery smooth parkour
LEGEND
jesus, wtf was happening to syndicate’s lighting in that clip?
It used to be all fucked up when playing it on Ps5, it was patched thankfully though so it’s no longer an issue
I do plan to remake this video at one point with Mirage so I’ll be sure to get a new Syndicate clip too
@@Wbubbles3998make sure when you remake it to show even less footage for rogue and odyssey
@@ninjafrog6966 Will do fuck those games
@@Wbubbles3998based rogue and odyssey hater
Bro showed 1 second of rogue 💀
Rogue isn’t worth my time lol, I didn’t have a long clip and didn’t care enough to record one. It’s the same as 4
@@Wbubbles3998 is rogue good? I purchased it and quite looking forward to it
It’s fine. Depends why you play Ac to begin with, its story is fairly mediocre imo but if you’re a big gameplay guy, it’s almost identical to Black Flag so you’d probably enjoy it
@@Wbubbles3998I don’t agree with your opinion on the story, It’s a good story that connects black flag and III and gives more meaning to ac III
Simply connecting two prior games and having recognisable characters and locations doesn’t mean the story is good
just thank u.
Hope you enjoyed
What’s up with syndicates rendering?
It used to be broken on Ps5, it’s fixed now
I love the tittle, it sounds like a confession after saw a lot of bad videos and you want to make a better one
Why did Liberation look smoother to play than 3 did lol?
Because it is
@@Wbubbles3998honestly it’s kinda hard to make AC3 parkour look good. the main issue is that the maps aren’t really designed that well around parkour unlike AC1 and the ezio trilogy. honestly liberation’s level design is much better than AC3 for parkour
Big facts, big up Ubi Sofia
What the fuck happened to syndicate, it's like jacob/evie is going thru a mess of shadows
Syndicate was broken on the PlayStation 5 until recently, the lighting would flicker like crazy. It’s fixed now though
Awesome! At last.
Evolution but backwards?
And as always, Unity takes the cake
Lol no Unity is trash
@@Wbubbles3998 The parkour is the best in the series. Everytying else about it is fair game and subjective.
Disagree
@@Wbubbles3998 so whats the best parkour
@@anikan4856 ac1
Bro was teleporting left and ritht on sindycate wtf did I watch lmao Evie couldn't not do something incredible strange for 2 seconds during that clip
Even if Valhalla has better parkour than Origins and Odyssey, it still is an involution from what we had since AC 1 and I mean it, it all feels pretty automated now and movement feels like I'm playing Ghost Of Tsushima or any other game which developers aren't very keen on, or don't know much about real parkour physics
Parkour and climbing in Valhalla is 10000% better than Ghost of Tsushima. Both great games otherwise, but Valhalla is just hands down better for parkour and climbing.
Can anyone tell me how to do this slide on the beams in AC 1, it's my favourite part but this is the first time I've seen this animation
ruclips.net/video/m2c6tuu8JOE/видео.html
Great video by Leo K to help you understand the basics, there’s some more advanced stuff you can do but it will likely come naturally as it did for me
@@Wbubbles3998 Thank you very much, I will try to do
Brotherhood is missing its main theme and Syndicate looks bugged. Other than that nice vid.
I would love to have the possibility to create own maps to create better parkour world design
Devolution
Hot take: All games aside Origins, valhalla, odyssey have good or decent parkour you just have to have skill (yes even mirage is solid). AC isn't really hard to play but it's challenging to master and make look really good.
I think Syndicate’s parkour is pretty bad but I agree other than that game
@@Wbubbles3998 syndicate was so mid I didn't even finish it I just assumed it has the same enging as Unity so it can't be THAT bad. But yes from the clips I've seen it did seem pretty shallow even for good ac players.
It has the same basic framework and some animations from Unity but it feels very different to actually play
They gutted most of the advanced moves from Unity
how do you side eject in the rpg games
Um, I’m not 100% sure tbh. Just kinda hold climb and push the direction and they’ll usually do it within reason. You’ve usually got to be a little above the object you want to jump to though
Though I love to explore and exploit every aspects of the gameplay mechanics like parkour, assassinations and so on. I mainly focus on the story to actually critic if an AC game is good or bad. Am I weird?😅
Not at all, the story of the first 4 games is what I love about them most. The brilliant blend of history and sci-fi, the interwoven stories across centuries, the boldness and willingness to be something unique and interesting.
There truly was nothing like Assassin’s Creed back in the day, and tbh there isn’t anything like it now either
finally
sheesh
If mirage fails to execute it well, I will be very disappointed again on Ubisoft.
You have to give us tutorials Fr man
Just watch Leo K and Jcers, they have already done far better jobs with that than I could ever hope to
This video, with someone who is great at AC parkour in it, shows how much of a downgrade origins/odyssey/Valhalla parkour is
They improved a lot from odyssey to Valhalla but that’s onto because they built in actual parkour things like signs and poles sticking out of walls
Maybe because their videos have good video quality
Playing AC Syndicate on PS5?
"Actually good"=vaulting every 5 seconds
I fail to see any point in which I vaulted without a purpose, I think you’re just looking for a reason to complain because you’re bored
Syndicate on the PS5👍
I like syndicate one but should be better with being less cluncky And with more animations
"someone who's actually good at the games" but doesn't show the diagonal wall run in Origins? Hmmm...
Check some of my origins shorts
i hate valhalla with a passion but the music is some of the best from the entire franchise its too bad the games audio is compressed to the point where you cant hear how it truly sounds
I would actually play Unity in 2023 as you got too much parkour opportunity plus you dont have a ride like Bayek xD so you I will go everywhere jumping
Playing syndicate on a ps5 if I had to guess 😂
Being good at the first few AC games means side and back ejecting constantly? lmao
Quite literally yes, and the fact that you said that like a joke proves that you’re not very good
yes, quite literally. they speed up parkour significantly. skill issue
Bro Ac syndicate and odessy are masterpiece don't compare with other ac games
If they’re truly as good as you claim, you wouldn’t be so insecure about them being compared with other games in the same franchise
@@Wbubbles3998syndicate and odyssey are good? i think i’d rather play rogue
Could someone make a video explaining how to free fall to swing in origins? I couldn't time it right :c ( 4:35 - 5:11 )
It’s not something you can do at will, Bayek will do it at certain points if you line up a jump properly but it’s not very consistent because you can’t manually jump like in Unity
@@Wbubbles3998 no manual jump? oh my god these last 3 games suck bruh
@@edykrb1533 You couldn’t manually jump in Syndicate either tbf
@@Wbubbles3998 yeah im glad i got unity when notre dame got on fire
Lack of vault over objecte animations in ac2 And origins dont want me to play them
AC1’s vault is very limited in utility and is an unfinished mechanic
Bro thinks doing side ejcts is good parkour.
it actually is but ok
Ok
Ok
@@Wbubbles3998 Ok
Okay
