Ubisoft: We don't wanna do AC in Japan
*ghosts of tsushima does gangbusters*
Ubisoft: Now we do
That statement on no game in Japan was from a long time ago. Most of the people working on AC games weren't working on them back then. The new team just seems to try and make the games seem as "cool" as possible. Origins was the last game where it actually felt like you played an assassin (even though it started to have weird RPG elements such as stealth kills not always working if you weren't a high enough level).I think it's more the setting than the character. That's why I want a Mayan or Incan setting.
Odyssey - Play as a badass spartan
Valhalla - Play as a badass viking
Shadows - Play as a badass samurai
I wonder which episode of the Deadliest Warrior the developers will watch next to decide what you play as in the next game.
Wait, you play as a samurai and not a ninja?! In an assassin game?!Pretty sure you're playing as both.
Wait, you play as a samurai and not a ninja?! In an assassin game?!Two protagonists. One is a ninja, and the other is a samurai.
I like that you can freely switch between the two for most of the missions. That's nice.I personally would have liked it if it were similar to GTA5 where each character has their own specific storyline that intertwines with the other character.
the I want the old assassins creed back crowd is going to be hella disappointed when they remember the old assassins creed was bad
I personally would have liked it if it were similar to GTA5 where each character has their own specific storyline that intertwines with the other character.From the sounds of it, some plot beats will still require you to be one or the other.
Syndicate did the whole play either character thing and I found myself never playing as Jacob.
Just show me the gameplay. Although it's cool that Yasuke's finally getting some big budget glory.Yasuke is constantly brought up in samurai pop culture in the last decade or two actually.

The original was the best one. The blend mechanism was kind of clunky but other than that I loved it. Yes even doing the random odd jobs to get the actual story mission was great I thought.I don't think anyone thinks Assassins Creed 1 is the best. Not even the kids of the developers.

At least if you said AC2 or Brotherhood, it'd make sense.
The reason I like it is because it actually feels like a stealth game. Like you don't have a health bar in AC1. You have a synchronization bar. You recover it by being hidden cause nobody sees Altair. You can't kill someone in broad daylight. You'll get caught. You have to follow them until they're alone or in the shadows.
AC2 comes along and now you're basically playing a super hero that takes health potions to recover from injuries.
Is it more like Mirage or more like Odyssey?Odyssey mixed with Syndicate
You can't kill someone in broad daylight. You'll get caught. You have to follow them until they're alone or in the shadows.
Ubisoft: We don't wanna do AC in JapanTheyve had plans for japan years before got dropped

You can absolutely kill someone in broad daylight. Two of the main assassinations in the 1st game are blatantly out in the open with Abu'l Nuqoud and Majd Addin. Besides, once you get counter you can legitimately just stand still holding block waiting for the enemies to attack you. Unless I'm remembering wrong the sync bar also refills as long as you don't get hit in combat
Theyve had plans for japan years before gos dropped
Odyssey - Play as a badass spartancan't wait to play as a badass Cowboy
Valhalla - Play as a badass viking
Shadows - Play as a badass samurai

I was talking about the side missions that you have to do before the story. The story missions by large don't care how you do it although getting caught makes it harder to escape or sometimes your target will run away.The new games still have that. You kill dudes and leave them on benches, assassinate them and hide them in bushes, piles of hay, or behind curtains.
If you stab someone in daylight the crowd will start reacting and you'll get caught and you'll have to repeat the mission. If you wait for them to go into the shade and then do it you'll get away with it.
Single player game that requires an online connection for some reason.
They really should make a mainline AC game again that has a big city as the focus. Tenochtitlan would be awesome. Early 20th century Chicago or New York would also be cool, but you would have to think of a good way to adopt the gameplay to the more modern era.They clarified it was required to go online to install, its not required to play past that point apparently. They didnt clarify if its a security feature or the game is just massive and cant fit otherwise or anything like that.
lmao
