If Desmond had let the world burn in AC3 a post apocalyptic AC would have been awesome but I've just finished Valhalla and it seems to have made the modern day interesting again so I'm a bit less bitter about AC3
You're wrong about Valhalla's modern day I believe. To my knowledge there was never a second solar flare. The main plot was that Desmond's sacrifice worked by the pillars shown by Juno in AC III being complete and strengthening the Earth's electro magnetic shield, aswell as absorbing the energy to dissipate it. But from 2012-2020, the machines have been working too well and making the sphere too strong, causing a global aurora borealis and causing major problems around the world, and even theorized by scientists in game to completely change how life evolves on Earth. So Layla had to find a way to decrease the overcompensation of the Isu machines while also keeping it on so that the Earth is protecting from future flares without killing itself in the process.
I kinda liked the modern day in Valhalla so I think that they should do that , maybe with basim trying to reunite with his family by using the animus and stuff
The modern day was always a part of the franchise I neglected and didn't look into too deeply so this is so weird to see there's actually a progressing story😂 incredible video much love
I'm at a point with Assassin's Creed, where I believe it needs to end. 3 games. All modern Day. Finish the Assassin/Templar conflict. Make a new IP. I've been playing the series since the first game came out. I remember the fan reactions of AC3's ending. I remember unity being so broken they refunded pc gamers. I remember fan trust being so broken that when syndicate released, the fanbase was so divided on whether it was worth the price. I remember fans cheering when origins was delayed for a year. And then the division of old players and new players with odyssey. This series has developed so much over the years that it has lost its identity. Fans debate said identity because it's changed so much. The series is dying (see recent controversy with shadows). Let it die, Ubisoft, but do it gracefully. A breakup doesn't have to be hard, we can remain friends and acknowledge that we've changed. So the question I pose is this: What is Assassin's Creed about? Some would say revisiting a loosely based historical setting. Others, a tale of the Isu involvement of the modern day. Me? Much simpler. Assassin's vs Templars. The past has shaped the setting thus far, absolutely. But especially now, what the series needs (especially should it continue to trek down this RPG path) is not the past but the present. And it works for everyone. Ubi wants to make RPG games? Great, do it in a NEW IP. Fans of the Assassin's Creed games finally get closure. People want a 3rd person stealthy, 3rd person, action adventure? Again, another new IP. Brand recognition is great and all, but at a certain point, it gets tiring.
I think the modern day story is going to continue in shadows they did say that mirage wasn't going to have the modern day story because it was connected to vahalla
AC was bever meant to be 100% accurate historically, science fiction was there from the start But people chose to shit themselves anyway when in RPG trilogy you could buy pegasus skin for your horse and wear armor from Final Fantasy, because people in general are fucking stupid Modern day was good from the start until Rogue, then got good again in Odyssey, so I think they should continue it further, because now we have an actual Isu living in modern times and Adam & Eve thing with Desmond and Layla, so it would be a waste if they would cut it now Also, sun is not blowing up again in Valhalla, you got that wrong - they are just undoing what Desmond did, and what he did is a permanent shield around Earth that started to get dangerous for the planet and that's why they need to deactivate it
@@domiiinik4320 they had to not deactivate but turn it down. Desmond and Layla are trying to permanently stop the solar flare thing Skins and such are fine. The animus is basically a big gaming device so why can't the modern day characters have some daft fun? What would be cool is if the Rebecca and Shaun threw in a comment when a player equipped one of these things Rebecca "oh wow, [Final Fantasy character] armour!" Shaun: "what. an. idiot."
There is one strange TV channel in Russia. When I was young, when we still loved Ubisoft and played as Ezio, this channel often showed conspiracy theories. No one took them seriously, but they were terribly interesting. Like a stoned guy who claims to have seen a UFO. And that is exactly the feeling that the Assassins Creed series gave me. Modernity for me was such a big conspiracy theory. Maybe it is the duckling syndrome in me talking, but it really was more pleasant before. Now there is no such feeling of mystery. Or maybe i grew up

A parallel between AC2 Ezio and Desmond is they're both held up by those around them and would be pretty much useless without them
Imagine if it was Desmond reliving Edward Kenway's memories instead of what we actually got.

@@northamerica5142 thank you. Someone else said it
@@northamerica5142 I'm going to have to that bit again and listen better

You know what would've been better than a solar flare, a never ending winter, aka fimbulwinter for laylas era
Basim's return is a golden opportunity to revive the modern day story so expect it to be wasted.
Right now I’m replaying the ezio trilogy an boy the modern day had so much passion and killing lucky was so sad but poetic
The modern day was always a part of the franchise I neglected and didn't look into too deeply so this is so weird to see there's actually a progressing story😂 incredible video much love
I’m really hoping Basim is the main modern day character in Shadows and that they don’t forget him

Let’s go classic doctor who mentioned
I think the modern story needs to play at least in some part, it's what separates the ac series from just a historical game
I think the modern day story is going to continue in shadows they did say that mirage wasn't going to have the modern day story because it was connected to vahalla
I Like your take on the modern day, a nice change of pace from the constant hating. Looking forward to your vid
They fucked it up. Simple as that. After AC3 it went to shit. There was a brief moment of hope with AC Origins and that shortly went to shit too.
AC was bever meant to be 100% accurate historically, science fiction was there from the start
But people chose to shit themselves anyway when in RPG trilogy you could buy pegasus skin for your horse and wear armor from Final Fantasy, because people in general are fucking stupid
Modern day was good from the start until Rogue, then got good again in Odyssey, so I think they should continue it further, because now we have an actual Isu living in modern times and Adam & Eve thing with Desmond and Layla, so it would be a waste if they would cut it now

tl;dr they blew it
No, they didn't, Valhalla made it good again
@@otho69AD both true. They broke then fixed it(hopefully)
