I genuinely feel like assassin's creed fans have really low standards, we really should be expecting more from a triple A studio instead of them rebranding the same game since 2016
Ubi of 2023 is very different from ubi of 2010
That's just Ubisoft. Breakpoint was game with such an identity crisis it not only let's you select how it's played, it also has two different campaigns and multiplayer modes. Like, who is it for? Anyone willing to figure out which set of mechanics makes for a fun game? What is even Assassin's Creed at this point? So yeah, they been turning the crank for decades now but all it really meant was "make the next game bigger." It's the flaw of AAA, any franchise is doomed to die this way.
Not all AC fans. Just the post-Origins ones. Modern AC fans will tell you that stealth and being an assassin isn't important to Assassin's Creed.
Since 2017, with Origins. Assassin's Creed has become a second class game franchise under modern Ubisoft
Yes very low: learn about history, play a gem set in landmarks that don't exist anymore. What's your? COD?
It's got that "shareholder creativity" to it.
love the term "shareholder creativity', needs to be used more often given the state of the gaming industry.
That's all ubisoft games to be honest.
this does need to be used more often lol, it might get them to change some things in the way they make their games, because this is an insult to how they make the games and if enough people hate this stuff openly, they might just change for the better.
That term is gold and couldn't be more accurate. I love it. Well done, internet man! 🤝
"Shareholder creativity" is a new term in my dictionary now.
The most frustrating thing about Ubisoft is that conceptually their games have a lot of potential they just always completely fumble the execution.
Most agreed statement.
It’s true we know they have smart people working for them but the higher ups won’t let them do anything
i cant speak since i haven’t played mirage yet but for far cry 6. yeah
Yeah I have the feeling they just don’t understand their games in general anymore best example of all times is splinter cell and hitman from IO. Both are pure stealth games both studios at one point have that up to have more of a blockbuster game which fired back. While Ubisoft wasn’t able to understand it and basically put that game on freeze IO understood it doubled down on the sandbox stealth game loop and ever since have a good game people play religiously.
That´s the natue of their short development cycles.
A little help for anyone that feels parkour is weird. I personally switched controller configs around to be closer to AC4 / UNITY. In the config menu you can also determine if a button has to be held or tapped for an input. I now hold circle to decent, hold x to parkour and my R2 to sprint while doing it just like the classics. It feels like butter now 🥂
Hmm need try this 🤔
thanks for the heads up
I'm pretty sure that's literally the default though, minus R2 being sprint lol at least on PS5 it is.
@@Kazoowiii yeah it is but its true, i also set my control scheme to hold R2 to sprint and its better then always having to press down L3 after everything, since you'd never really know, when Basim stops sprinting (same goes for Eivor)
Going back and watching the facial animations for Assassin's Creed II is astonishing. They had that shit nailed back in 2009. Where did it all go wrong?
Didn't they use mocap for facial animations back then which they then stopped?
That's atleast what I kinda remember being the case, but my brain is made out of cheese so it's completely possible that I'm wrong about that 😅
unity has really good facial animations
Ikr? When I saw the first piece of gameplay footage when it came out, my first thought was that the facial animations in those cutscenes were stiff beyond belief. Felt like they got botoxed 4 times and could barely move their muscles.
Bruh yes I thought I was absolutely trippin but I guess others feel the same
@@MrQwertysystem Yes, they did facial capture with help from Image Metric for AC2. Image Metrics worked with Rockstar games as well.
Wish AC adopted the gimmick from MGSV where enemies would get new equipment to deal with players overusing one tactic too much, simple as a humble cloth mask to deal with smoke bombs or some shit
That would require Ubisoft not to be lazy.
Adaptive enemies? What do you think this is, a stealth game?
@@mortemtyrannus8813ha
How dare you expect such an effort from Ubisoft.
MGSV didnt even have non enemy npcs on its barren reused maps
In an age of remakes, reboots, rehashes and remasters, this is truly one of those of all time.
So basically you don't like everything
@@assassin8636 correct, everything is shit nowadays and the markets keep getting away with it because of how naive the new generations are
@@edgarava1bing bong, correcto
@@edgarava1 ok boomer
Ubishite don’t even remaster there best games :(
Love the new mechanics of having a bird fly and highlight enemy's. Also love how you can climb anything and do a back summersault into a pile of hay. Love the x ray vision that lets you look through walls to highlight enemy's.
Ps I just got out a comma after 12 years.
Coma?
@@ziploc2000 coma !!
Just disable those HUD functions, God you people whine endlessly. "Ubisoft gives us too many HUD features, waaaah waaaah" then just disable them and play it the way you want.
New mechanics? dude that's in every game....
@@Scarrgh Dude it's sarcasm.
Truly a game of all time. The Assassin's were Creeding, and there was definitely a Mirage.
Man, this joke is getting so old
@@MrDwightSchruteMan, I don't remember asking what you think.
@@MrDwightSchruteVery fitting when talking about the "land before time" of the gaming industry 😂
@@KitePerson Lol. I just watched the ‘Just the Two of Us’ video on your channel. Massive cringe my man
@@MrDwightSchrute uh, thanks for the view ig? Lmao tf you wanted me to say to this you cringelord?
I love it when the assassin teleports truly back to its roots
Wtf were they thinking...
When you want to replicate Arkham Knight stealth combo mechanic but too lazy to actually animate the moves
Reminds me of Splinter Cell Conviction when they first introduced the 'marking several enemies to execute them fast mechanic'...
Everything else looks decent, but again, Ubi seems to forget their games have halted inovation for over a decade now. Lots of wasted potential.
@@hannibalburgers477 Isn't this also basically just Shadow of mordor with the whole focus bit lmao
@@SimpleArt93 Ubisoft development process
Take engine > add minimum number of new mechanics (one, hopefully zero) > Chang the IP a bit > add a story > release > don't break even.
_"No male or female character option, no dialogue options, no romance, smaller map"_
Honestly that's a good thing
People are going to complain no matter what. They make a game smaller in scale that doesn't cost as much as a new AAA title and people are going to complain that it isn't as big and grand as the previous titles.
@@Gatorade69just because they make a game smaller in scale doesn’t mean they’ve improved or went back to their “roots” as an AC game. It’s just typical Ubisoft garbage, that people still fall for French developers being terrible at making Triple-A priced games. Ubisoft is known for setting the standard low each time, and no matter what they change, it's always gonna be lazy, uninspired and will make more quanity than quality.
They added RPG elements to their games, yet they don't set the standard and you could make it your typical Bethesda game too.
yea, but also is the very bare minimun
@@NewHollowEarth Thabk you for proving my point. Gman said it was an OK game. I'm glad we're in the age where a good 7/10 game is "garbage" and games have to be the best of the best. People are spoiled, the bar has been raised so damn high that anything that doesn't achieve that is "garbage."
Modern gamers are just giant crybabies, whining about a title they won't ever play.
@@Gatorade69People are going to complain, yes. But that doesn’t make their complaints invalid. I do agree the bar has been set high, but that’s to be expected for a franchise people love. People are going to want it out of the ballpark for every title unreasonable as it may be at times
that's why catch ledge was so important in the older games. it let players move in any direction they wanted to and then choose whether or not they wanted to grab a hold of something. You could fly off in random directions (either on purpose or accident) and then save yourself. It was the best of both worlds, offering freedom of movement without being too punishing. Without it I think the games are kinda forced to be more magnet-y or they risk being too frustrating when the players or the game inevitably screws something up.
And your point is?
@@assassin8636 my point is that I liked the old catch ledge mechanic better than what they have now
It's fun not needing to repeatedly click descend and instead to press it once and then rewatch where you want, when ya want.@@assassin8636
This game really live up to the name.
It's a mirage, looks beautiful from a distance but get closer you realize how it was never there.
i actually hope those devs are paying attention to videos like this, because they fucked themselves with this one.
haha thats funny
Feel free to play anything else.
Ok that's actually a good metaphor
@@cezarstefanseghjucan "Go play something else" won't change how they fucked up the franchise...
This is probably the most I've seen of this game. The ad budget must be tiny compared to the older games
I didn't even know this game existed until now lol
It began as dlc for Valhalla so that may be why
they're working on 7 AC games, they probably dont care about the 1 game that's supposed to appeal to the older AC fans (but then doesn't because it has magic power bullshit)
They had "meme" ads on instagram that I kept getting (they were not funny)
They're counting on the content creator shills to promote the game.
The annoyance of getting down is made even worse when you remember that AC Unity had a feature that let you do just that. Holding the parkour button and a specific face button would let you ascend or descend.
Bruh you can literally do the same thing with the same buttons in mirage
@@aidanpratt7675 It is not as smooth as Unity
@@aidanpratt7675you don’t know shit
Assassins creed is such a guilty pleasure of mine. Ive 100 percented every single one except syndicate and odyssey. Part of the reason is, the first ac game was one of the first time i played a game that felt like it was "tailor made" for me. I always look forward to a new ac game even though i know what im gonna get irregardless. My nostalgia for this franchise is beyond palpable.
you platinumed valhalla??
Is it really that hard to believe someone can play and enjoy Valhalla? Can people just not play what they want to play?
@@Ver36gil nah I was just wondering because the game is so long
@@reubencrawford3112 My bad. So many people shit on it without even playing or looking at it. Sorry, mate.
@@Ver36gilI played it it’s bloated burning and endless garbage
I'm italian and I can confirm Jerusalem is one of the most beautiful cities in my country.
As a Persian, Hong Kong is the greatest City in all of Kenya
As an American, Moscow is the jewel of our republic.
Wonderful and informative! Thanks!
Wow an Italian living in Israel! Very different
Truly one of the Italians of all time.
Now watch as Ubisoft slowly introduces RPG mechanics again. They know what they're doing. Old-timers remember the originals, and the newcomers feel like Mirage is something profound and innovative. Generation after generation. Ubisoft is going to slowly put RPG mechanics in again, because the childrens children will see that as novel and innovative.
Cycle never ends...
I don't even think they care like that. The whole oh well we made the expansion too big so we have to release whole new game oh well. They've been doing this shite business practice for years as well as many others. That new marvel style phase shite they have going on is totally hype train bs. They lied alot about the content of this game as well. They straight up said it would be unity parkour when most of us already knew it was a expansion. We knew that wouldn't happen and they still lied. They don't care.
the apple strat: take away features to sell them back later
Think u us old can't be fool
For all intents and purposes this game is 20$ because it's more of a reskin of Valhalla, with a 100x smaller map. Think MGS Ground Zeroes.

Nah, I'll stick with 'Worth a Buy' for the most honest reviews honestly. But Gman reviews certainly aren't bad either.
Definition of madness is to play same game over and over again for 15 years
That's AAA gaming baby
Litterally
The most bizarre was each year
Make big promises that fans in an abusive relationship with Ubisoft wants to hear and sell the game. Mad stonks

Always look forward to your uploads, harsh but fair. Cheers!
You can’t just remove the level numbers, release the same game, and then call it a ‘return to roots’. It feels like this entire game is a masterclass in how marketing can spin actual slop you’ve already played.
It's also 50 quid for the thing. I don't really have a problem with a good game costing "full price", but this is clearly DLC level content pretending to be a standalone title. Having a good 10h game is substantially better than a bad 100h game, but come on - don't sell mediocrity for the price of premium.
@@lamezorlordmaybe because it was supposed to be a extension to valhalla but just got expanded to a full game in like a month
@@shawklan27 I know. Which is why I'm saying it's all great for it to be sold as a separate game and stand on its own merits. It's not ok to sell it for the price of a full game.
The asscreed games have been slop from the first sequel. The first game was kind of interesting and a little different from what had been done before but every single sequel is the exact same game with a tiny tweak and extra bloat. Hell even the original game wasnt great. It was ok but the entire franchise is as was said very 7/10 mid tier meh. Played the first after launch picked up the second and dropped it when it did literally nothing new or interesting. Got black flag for "free" with a video card and it was the EXACT same thing years later but on a boat. The entire franchise is the poster child for slapping a shiny coat of paint on the same old garbage to sell again which is kind of ubisofts entire business model.
I mean there's something to be said for how divisive the "level numbers" were. RPG mechanics are in large part represented by numbers and stats. When the numbers and arbitrary numerical barriers were introduced was when OG fans went into uproar.
Removing those numbers does in a big way appease those who prefer AC as a straight up action stealth game that focuses on narrative and exploration.
I feel like the AC series peaked with Black Flag. It was just a perfect storm of a new setting, new era and a different style of assassin. Also no other title in the series had sea shanties, so they're worse by default
Finally a good opinion in here
Rogue and Odyssey had sea shanties, but those weren't Black Flag bangers. I would say that Black Flag also got heavily criticized for not being a AC game. You literally become an assassin at the end of the game.
That's irrelevant, though. BF is peak old AC.
God those Shanties and Ship Battles in Black Flag, so memorable
Aside from that, I think Black Flag no joke had some of the best writing in the franchise. Edward Kenway is a very compelling character with a solid journey of growth that isn't tied much to the Assassin/Templar conflict. Which makes it an easy game to play without needing to know the context of the other entries.
agree ever since its been the same game we been playing 100 times now the same is with call of duty
This really makes me want the open world sands of time sequel we thought we were getting almost 20 years ago
I really appreciate this overview
It is certainly a game.
Man I miss the days of teleporting with Ezio, truly back to the roots
Nah dude iTs A gLiTcH iN tHe AnImUs or something like that
Ah yes cause ezio making clones of himself was truly back to the roots
I was more of a fan of using mind wipe smoke bombs and corrosive throwing knives as Altair
@@cj3670ion remember ezio being able to do that without a piece of eden🤔
@@cj3670
that was at the end of the game when he had the apple, not some stupid mechanic he could use whenever he damn well pleased as a demigod from the beginning to the end of the game like the stupid RPG stuff.
please try again on yet another stupid comparison that holds no baring on the conversation at all.
they even brought back the graphics from 2007, truly innovative.
While I always try to respect the opinions of others, this is just straight up misinformation, so I have no guilt calling it as ludicrous as it is.
PS2 games had better facial animations
that first clip told me absolutely everything I needed to know about this game
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Didn’t realize “back to basics” meant half-assing what was initially a DLC into something with less depth than the very first entry. I was really hoping this would be phenomenal too.
The title tells you exactly what this is, a Mirage of better games
Lmao, what you mean less depth? Im starting to seriously think people like you never actually play any of these games, or just have a serious case of nostalgia goggles. There was 3 types of missions in the first game and that was it
@@gbaclUhhh... Wow seeing someone being media illiterate is kinda surreal.
@@alstenfung5508 Im talking by experience and not based on most popular opinions on Reddit, maybe thats why you can't understand it. First game had interrogations, eavesdrop and pickpocketing and you spend all game doing a variation of these 3. But go ahead tell me how am I wrong because you read it somewhere without actually playing the game
@@gbacl Alright buddy, it's great you're all passionate about it and all, but stop being weird.
Also Unity has best parkour and ac1 is dated fight me
This is a game for folks that have skipped the last 2-3 entries and are hungry for a more streamlined experience.
Yeah, I like open world games, but the last three AC games have just been way too big and way too boring.
Got to check Odyssey, An improved arpg openworld, but terrible ac due to writing and timeline. Then Skipped Valhalla
yeah it's too bad it's not going to land very well with those fans who are actually paying attention to the lies of Ubisoft.
Those folks are free to play anything else other than Assassin's Creed. No one gives a damn about AC 1 zealots.
I get every one only because my dad used to buy me each new one when they’d come out as a kid. So now whenever I boot up a new assassins creed it takes me back to when I got the first one/2/brotherhood/revelations/3/4 on Christmas and booted it up. I do love how there simply and easy to blow thru with a decent story. Hopefully one day they’ll be able to make one at its full potential
A more realistic AC-game would be almost like Hitman games mixed with castle- and guild manager game, where you kill the target in broad daylight with lot of bystanders witnessing it, then you deliberately surrender to the guards right after to show how fearless you are. Assassin-Nizar strikes were like medieval bomb vest terror attacks, the whole point was that the assassin would not survive the encounter but the sheer fearless attitude would strike fear to the guilds opponents.
"Sleeping dart whose effect is permanent" isn't that... a poison dart?

Now the 80s and 90s taught me that a franchise isn't beaten senseless til there is an installment of them going to space.

Coming 2026: Assassin's Creed: Lunar.
Take up the role of legendary assassins Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, as they fight to protect the native moonmen from the Templar-funded NASA's bid to expand beyond Earth. Use amazing new tools like the hidden energy blade and silenced laser pistol. Free run to your heart's content across a completely realistic depiction of the Moon.
Definitely based on historical events, we promise.
@@mortemtyrannus8813 see, the moon landing wasn't fake. They just don't talk about the Templar war on the darkside of the moon
To be fair I'd play the shit out of that, it would suck but i'd play it.

12:10 AC Syndicate had it down perfectly, where (on Xbox) IIRC, you held RT+A to automatically parkour upwards and then held RT+B to quickly parkour downwards. Weird that they didn't keep that mechanic.
I love all the jokes you sprinkle through these videos. Absolute legend 😂
When Ubisoft claims Mirage is going back to its roots, they weren't kidding. Gameplay looks like it's from the 2010s

We want more reviews from you for the older Assassin's Creed games!! Please...
Some people are gonna bag on this game - but my biggest gripe against the latest AC games has been the length. Streching a game that is 20-30 hours for 100+ hours hurts the game. If this game is 20-30 hours of just assassinating people and building up to assassinations then it is good - but will also go onsale soon so I will buy it then haha
Would have definitely rented this back in the day.
most accurate description of how i feel about this release
that's essentailly what game pass is nowadays, can you believe people are saying starfield is a success because of the game pass numbers of players playing that game?
they don't understand that is not at all the success they think it is for the bethesda game, it's a regression if anything because it means that bethesda lost the majority of the money made on that deal in comparison to people who actually purchased the title which on steam is under a million copies sold so far, that game is not in good shape right now, and this game doesn't look that good either, but who knows Ubisoft have a lot of stupidly loyal fans, i like their games, but i'm at least informed and take my time before i ever purchase any games these days.
I would love for this series to play more like the Hitman series but with Parkour and the different Time Periods. Maybe in some other reality they're actually enjoying a good AssCreeding...
That would be perfect
Good idea
So many options for locations, and we are getting the Force Awakens of AC
AC1 filter is definitely the way to go. Without it the game looks like every current gen game ever made
=))) Because AC 1 looked iconic and everyone copied it until last year.
I guess if the only way to describe this game as "whelming", then that's probably the best complement this game can get.
I'm gonna steal that term, it's too good lol
not over, not under, just about right
I do like the fact that this game is more like of its predecessors from AC1 to Syndicate than the more rpg like versions of AC. Although they do have some stealth and assassination techniques it felt like it took a back seat. I am glad they went back to their roots or "Origins" i may say but like others i do believe they could add more to the gameplay as it feels like AC2 trilogy
Hey love the series and liked your video for the title alone. Your title for a video is a title for a video.
Thank god I'm not the only who thinks Brotherhood is the best AC, Black Flag is fantastic but Brotherhood is peak, the story still gives me shivers of how good it is
Yeah, 2 and brotherhood are peak AC. I could take either.
Unity was my personal Favorite.
@@money4385Unity sucks, the missions were boring like hell.
Pretty fitting that Ubisoft wants to adopt the Marvel phase formula, since my reaction to every new Ubisoft release is the same as for a new Marvel release. "Oh. There's another one."
"Basim's movements are so fast, the animus can't keep up hence the glitching"
"But this is also the same Animus that can remember a distant ancestors entire lifetime vividly and replicate it near it perfectly"
🤣🤣I died laughing
As story goes, I really enjoyed origins Odyssey and Valhalla, mythicim I feel is important to the game when they introduced the Issu and the ancient super technology they had. Game play mechanics I'm kinda glad it's back to old school fighting, I do love being a demigod but this is a refresher I was never good at parrying and I have a bad habit to rarely block or dodge. So this game and the first few I enjoy playing because it challenges my play style a lot, I'm not too far into the game yet but I do miss the customization of weapons and outfits, on the plus side I am so happy they brought back the dye system I just kinda wished it would work with the costumes or other armor because the dye I currently have is the prince of Persian dye. And it's for Bahsim's basic armor, I have three armors and two costumes at the moment and I kinda wish the dye wasn't for specific armors, that said it's nice to play a younger Bahsim because in Valhalla he was snarky and almost villainous I could never know what he was thinking just knew he was going to fuck some one over (evior). Even when he escaped the claw machine and we now play as him outside of the animus he seemed suspicious but hopefully I get to learn his true motives. Also seeing Bahsim in a hoody and Wolf shirt or just modern cloths kinda off putting lol but hilarious. I'm glad we are back to simpler mechanics but I'll miss some of the mythicim that explain our connection to them and this apparent devastating solar flare that will destroy all life in our planet. I really love lore, I'd also want to play as one of the quote on quote bad guys. Not like in rogue but, just start off with either learning to be a Templar or order of accents seeing my predecessor die and pick up trying to maintain power and order while hunting assassins or hidden ones. I also want more Issu lore like where does it truly stop did all of them go into a weird computer matrix? Was it just the alantians and aiser what about Desmond and Layla can they really find an algorithm that will save the world ? And the ultimate question are the hidden ones right or the order is control and power going to save us or is freedom and chaos? How can the Issu be reincarnated but clearly be in a matrix simulation? I'm really into anthropology so lore and the life of humans aliens ancient and future civilization and their religious beliefs and creeds and way of life intrigue me even fictional people.😅

Bro! Honestly love your reviews. Your editing is always top notch. Thanks for being you.
AAA creativity really is swimming in circles.
That filter was used only in Acre and Jerusalem at the end if my memory serves me. I'm glad this game is getting back to the series' roots.
I might be wrong, but I think those stutters you showed are not micro-stutters, but full-on stutters.
Both Odyssey and Valhalla had a fix where you go into the config file and change MaxFPS=60 to MaxFPS=59, and as long as you don't open the settings (which will then reset the settings) it will eliminate the micro-stutters these games have had since Origins.
Honestly I want a reboot of this series with a more back to roots idea. But seems like Ubisoft has all hands on deck working on Assassin's Creed now since they mentioned they had 10 upcoming AC games in the works at the moment.
Coming soon:

Lookin worse than Odyssey.
For me it looks like the first AC game in which i would be interested in - favourite setting, normal length, normal amount of collectibles and the most important ACTUALL ASSASSIN GAMEPLAY with stealth as primary tool and assassinations as primary goal.
It only looks like that
Yay for camels. They were the reason I even got interested in this series back when Origins was released.
"We're out of ideas... what should we do, people?"
People: "....I know... lets do the first one again!"

Please tell me the music name in first scene where you teleport from the ledge and ice two guys. It brings back memmories but I don't remember the song name. Please!
black Flag was the last AC I played and I'm pretty content with keeping it that way. Now, this new VR game they are bringing out in Nov is a hard maybe.
Out of all the games that have released this year, this is certainly one of them.
they have to beat so many God tier game from ALL time to be in "one of the games of all time" list,
after all, the list only fit a handful of a really special and world changing game
It's certainly one of the games of all time
I remember that multiple assassination teleport attacks in warframe 😂
That AC game set in Feudal Japan already came out, it's called Ghost of Tsushima and it's the best AC since Black Flag.
@gggmanlives, Hey I'm driving crazy what is the music background that you used in intro scene for this movie. I mean this short bass sequence during first scene. I'll be glad if You will share the link to it for instance!
I actually think going back in game design is a net positive for AC. But man, the Ubisoft formula is so old. Even the big PS first party games are just that formula. Its so hard to get excited for another game where you climb towers to reveal the map while murder-stealthing your way through encounters until you get spotted and mindlessly slaughter the remaining enemies.
Its just so old and tired at this point. Even zelda basically had to give you development tools to spice it up. If i were to give in and and get this, im just going to have to do the exact same thing again when Spiderman 2 drops.
Yeah, game design in general needs a new shakeup. I get people still like their open worlds, but there is a limitation with making them based on the same design principles set a decade and a half ago.
Basim Ibn Is'haq truly is the Assassin's Creed Mirage
I'm tempted to pick this up just to hear more Shohreh
The intro music is from that club scene from the first John Wick movie hahaha 🤣
Compared to AC2, this game feels like a step forward but 5 steps backwards. At least they're finally back to become "Assassin" again. Instead of MMORPG's character
If the past is any good basis for where the futue of this series is going I'm very excited for the sequel to this. Bringing it back to the series roots as a sort of reboot to the mechanics it's kind of like what they did with the first game. The first one wasn't amazing but the second game I think still stands as the blueprint for what the games should be so I'm really hoping that even though this one isn't great we can see where it's going in the future now. Very excited 😊 I played through the first, second and it's sequels recently so this is right up my alley.
THIS IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR. THAT ONE ASSASIN
LES GOO
The Assassin’s Creed game I envision would be a hyper realistic stealth simulation.
Without playing Mirage, it very much seems like they stripped back a lot of the side content, and extras that people might enjoy, so they can find their feet again with the core gameplay loop and main story elements.
Wow! I can’t wait to play this (checks notes) game!
Me (takes $5 bill) too.
Turn on vsynch to fix the stuttering you mentioned, worked for me
I like that “shrugging King of Queens” meme reference in the thumbnail
Thanks for doing a video on Mirage. I enjoy the AC games and have been playing them since the first, but they’re about as innovative as the pencil industry at this point.
Would love to see a new Splinter Cell or something in the more modern stealth action category as opposed to this.
Pencil industry hahah 😂. That was a good one.
Watch as the pencil industry invents a number 5 pencil that's harder than graphene just to spite AC.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but, at least in the older games like Syndicate (recently played that), you could free fall by holding the free run button and O or B, depending on console of choice. Is this no longer a feature?
Yeah they got rid of it from what I've heard from other videos
Are you talking about parkour down? Because on games like Unity AND Syndicate, holding down "B" while on the ledge is the parkour down button which will make you drop from ledge to ledge pretty quickly compared to modern ac games
@@noddy5 exactly
@@loochieCS yeah. That was an actual innovation that was missing from the older games and the implementation was pretty good on both of those games. The time difference and finesse of scaling down a building in AC 1-4 compared to Unity is actually crazy. Really sad that modern implementations of it are way slower and jankier.
Yup they got rid of that, no clue why. Rather than keep the pretty smooth parkour in Unity/Syndicate AC Origins onwards basically goes all the way back to AC 1 type parkour and it sucks balls.
I enjoyed this review, thank you. I'll get it (if I get it at all) on sale.
The thumbnail alone deserves an award.
Yeah it is true it is one of the games of all time. Just like any other before it. More and more are coming out
Anytime I hear this game was originally going to be a dlc for (insert game) I immediately know I'm not spending more than $20 for it. This game will probably be closer to the $15 or less range though
I just feel like I've already played this numerous times and don't need to again
The thumbnail got me crying
Honestly I'm just happy we're going back to the roots. No "10 times the detail" world building, awful options or forced romances it is literally just
"here's the game, heres a little things to do. Go nuts"
I suppose they will keep making those games for as long as people keep buying them.
I was thinking of pre ordering this one lmao.
Going back to it's roots for 1 entry that was supposed to be valhalla DLC and after that working on witchcraft assassins creed and ninja rpg game with ac slapped on it, good times
