I really enjoyed Brotherhood just for being Assassin's Creed 2: This Time in Rome and that was a lot of fun. I wish Revelations was good--it had a cool setting which ended up being really beautiful (and my favorite UI design in the series) but man was it a boring game.

Revelations felt like them killing time. It's worth watching the cutscenes on YouTube if you like the series, but it's one too many longass Assassins Creed games with the same protagonist IMO. I hope they put Rogue on current gen consoles someday, I'd like to play it and PC gaming doesn't fit my life well right now.

AC3 has two great moments, this is the first one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SZ59YHytUc&t=35s The second one is when Desmond dies, good riddance!

the best part of 3 is when you're reading the entry for connor's mom before the big first twist and it's like, "connor's mom loves connor's dad even though he's a Templar"

I liked how 3 initially seemed to want to have shades of grey and social commentary like the first game, then it just kind of gave up and was like "here's a village of people you can talk to and do sidequests for for 80 years"

The best AssCrees are 1 and Revelation, because they have Altair, and the least amount of ancient alien forerunner precursor halo bullshit

Watching the innkeeper completely butcher a pig was really cool. All of the other artisan activities were kinda boring though.

My favorite thing in the entirety or AssCreed's story is near the end of Revelations when it's revealed that Altair time paradoxed himself a hidden gun in the 11th century and used it to assassinate his rival.

Like how do you have a game where you can actually talk to Washington and Lafayette but still manage to say almost nothing about the american revolution and its political implications other than a very vague "the natives got screwed" footnote. Also I was really upset that I got sidequests to investigate Bigfoot and the Headless Horseman and other cool stuff and every time it just turned out to be a regular guy.

Lil off topic but that reminds me of one of my favorite things about The Witcher 3 was that you could roll up on a random town and solve a monster mystery. Having a ton of those to do with a bunch of weird and obscure monsters was rad.

Having a ton of those to do with a bunch of weird and obscure monsters was rad. I also liked that Witcher 3 had a broad variety of genres of quests. Sometimes they were bad monsters, sometimes bad people, sometimes good monsters, sometimes good people*. But like some side quests were comedies. *just kidding

oddium posted:how do you feel about punching the pope instead of discussing the ramifications of the league war It was incredibly stupid that in a game about murdering people, the writers had to remember at the last minute that having the goddamn pope be murdered would shatter the illusion of this series being historically plausible, so Ezio inexplicably spares the pope, making the entire quest for revenge pointless. I guess it's a pretty fitting ending to a game where the main character stubbornly refuses to have an arc. deadly_pudding posted:I like when Washington is all "You did good, Connor. Now America is a free land for everybody!" Yes! The game should have had more of that and less "kill these templars because they are Bad. We know they are Bad because of their mustaches and how they yell all their lines with cartoonish hatred." Lurdiak fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Nov 30, 2016 |

Doesn't he also go back to his village to find it completely empty for some reason except for that weird Davy Crockett lookin dude? Speaking of Connor's village did anyone ever find that patch of grass that sets you on fire? That was a weird bug. I can't find any footage/info of it at all on the internet but in the X360 version but it was there I swear!

Yes, that's what I'm talking about. Either write a good historical fiction or write garbage, not a very boring middle ground.

I like in Brotherhood, where Ezio's little sister is finally inducted into the Assassins, and the logic is literally "you've been keeping books and running a whorehouse really well, so you're now qualified to jump off tall buildings without dying". Fuckin lol.

AC expansions are pretty off the rails like for example Jack the Ripper for Syndicate is pretty much 'destroy patriarchy: the game' and really owns and I wish more people played it.
