The Lockpicking mechanic in Unity wasn’t just glitchy it’s was straight up broken due to the constant Internet Networking issues that was always plagued with Lag & desync problems.. So Lockpicking was just impossible & just ended up being a lockpick vacuum.
I hear what your saying in this video, friend. But we really should ask this question. Will Ubisoft actually bring back these features? I wouldn't mind seeing most of them return, personally. Except for the 100 percent Sync. Sorry I hated that from the start. Well the side objectives anyway. I want that to stay gone.

Deliver that, and it'd be the end of the AC series for half a decade at least. Unity's broken glitchfest of a parkour system alone would be a deal breaker for 95% of players, to say nothing of filling it with filler tomb missions, puzzles, etc.
I remember finishing Revelations with tears in my eyes. The story, the characters, the music, it was all so beautifully connected and therefore so emotional and deep. I miss that kind of epicness, that larger than life thing that AC had. Plus, the gameplay was good and fun lol
We need connecting storylines again, not just the modern day but the historical stuff too, for example the way AC3, AC4, Rogue and Unity all seemlessly connect is impeccable, its unfortunate that they didnt continue that trend Let me specify, the historical stuff is mainly what I'm talking about, all 4 of those games take place in the 18th century
As a big advocate the RPG structure, it was disappointing that Origins didn't connect to Odyssey in any meaningful way, with Valhalla being almost completely disconnected from the prior two. Post launch quest with Kassandra notwithstanding. It was a missed opportunity.
I really hope they bring back hidden blade combat it was so cool just having the hidden blade out whenever you wanted and i would just constantly watch the animation for opening it cause it always looked cool to me.
Regarding the armor, it's not only realism. It also serve as an incentive to flee if your combat isn't going well. If combat is the result of a fail state that kicks you out of stealth mode, maybe they should reintroduce mechanics that would create fail states to kick you out of combat mode.
Ac games after Ezio Trilogy removed armor degradation because the protagonists didn't use armores anymore. They bringed back armores in Odissey and Valhalla. In Origins and Mirage only enemies had armores
To me Unity is the title that uses his Historical setting in the worst way possible. You have the fricking French Revolution, one of the bloodiest, most grousome event in modern history, full of plotting, violence and interesting historical figures with multiple interacting opportunities. And instead of taking advantage of all this they decided to center the plot around a boring Romeo and Juliet ripoff. They also never brought Shay back, making Rogue’s ending seem completely pointless.
Renovations!! Yes!! As someone who is a sucker for management games, but AC is their favorite series, it added so much to the world and your tangible influence in it.
What I miss are the fluency of animations Like in the older games everything looked lifelike and every animation looked amazing from the fighting ones the the cutscenes Since origins there are barely any animations in cutscenes and everything looked so stiff and in valhalla some animations like the hidden blade assassinations took forever to execute like the play dead assassination you showed Man jumps up, Slides the blade out And then proceeds to stab him And that takes soo long and looks soo stiff And I definitely miss the assassination animations from unity Damn those were sooo smooth and inconspicuous Nowadays we make an elaborate show out of assassinating someone Such a shame
I 100% feel like the recruit system needs to make a return. It was basically perfect in 3 with your recruits being able to do various abilities and you can do their specific missions(they should make them have more of these) and you can also interact with them and have conversations thus deepening their characters and make you actually feel something for them unlike for example Brotherhood where you have random people.
I think that multiplayer mode from acb to ac4bf should return hiding in plain sight, assassinating your targets when they don't expect it And those kill animations were so good it's a shame that black flag was the last one to have multiplayer mode
I would like to see them bring back the combat system of the first game and the Ezio trilogy. It was such a straight forward yet fun and elegant combat system.
I think they changed it cuz it was too easy and repetitive and people at the time did want something new and more advanced but I do hope they change from the current system
They just need to make the 1st game fighting,but they attack more/add guns/different types of weopons for the main person and enemies. The 1st game is hard. The 2nd 1 is easyer. If they have a axe or spear or use sand,and use guns,and horses=its harder.
Tbh I much prefer AC4 combat, infact I would say Unity has the best combat if it didn't have a couple unnecessary things (roll, can't aim mid fight only quickshot, manual healing)

I would love the return of assassinations in movement like in 3, 4 and rogue, and on a related note holding before bumping into an enemy to assassinate them. This was far more convenient than trying to hit the button in a specific windows when the action is possible.
The features that I would want to come back are: Assassin recruitment Aveline's persona system Community building (from ac3 when you complete homestead missions and the community gets bigger) Outfit Customization: Specifically unity's.

Man, I love your videos, I agree 100%. About manual jump I have an idea (totally my opinion) that could be like this: At the end of the building you have three bars (one in front of you, one at the top and one at the bottom) analog forward, R1 would be for the bar in front of you, R1+ X, would be to jump to the bar above you, R1+ O, it would be for the bar beneath you. (this on the playstation controller) That's it, but I have to think better... (sorry for the long text)😅
I agree with most of your list. Two things I'd like returning: - The rope dart: The coolest tool we had in all the games, with many uses. And it's really epic to hang people up on tree branches like a Predator. - The persona system of Liberation: the best social stealth the games had. Would be cool if we could don a simple disguise to blend in instead of having us believe we can blend in a crowd in our outlandish hooded clothes and armor. When I played Odyssey I thought how cool it would be if I could equip all athenian armor pieces, and could walk into enemy camps without being detected by common troops. A video idea: New things to be added to the game. A thing I'd like to see for a long time is weapons having actual function and not just preference. Say a common soldier with very basic armor isn't an issue with any weapons. But an enemy like a brute in AC2, dressed in all plates? Swinging a sword at them should do nothing. How about using weapons that are effective? Say blunt weapons to stun them, and then we can stab them in the eye with the hidden blade. Or use a dagger, that has paired animations that target the weak points at the joints, killing them with several cuts. Enemies with spear could hold you at bay, but use a heavy weapon to knock away or even break their spear, and they are done. Basic arrows only being useful against lightly armored targets, but chainmail or plate armored enemies would need bodkin arrows or needle arrows. Or maybe eaven a heavy war bow that is slower do draw, but powerful enough to pierce armor.
I'll admit, having co-op return would be interesting. I didn't play Unity (I only have it on PC from the time it was free and my rig can't handle it), but the thought of two people on a mission would be awesome. You could come up with strategies to clear locations and all that. One even act as a diversion to help the other.
I have two myself 1. Being able to summon assassin's like in brotherhood 2. Having a special armer set you can unlock in each game by completing challenges like tombs.
I think this is why an Assassin's Creed set during the Philippine Revolution against the Spanish Colonization would be perfect. 1. Two clear factions, a group with revolutionaries one side, and another bearing crosses; 2. Sooooo many historical events that the MC can participate in; 3. Variety of weapons and fighting styles; 4. Variety in environments, from buildings to mountains, and seas to rivers; and finally 5. 333 years of colonization could give us time for both the Assassins and the Templars to set their roots down, might even have enough historical playground to set a new trilogy there.
My list of features that need to come back: 1)Recruits. I really like how you can just walk slowly, while your friends doing everything for you. Probably they even could make "command" System. How I see it:You hold call button, look at place, where you want a victim to be hidden, then you release it and done! Your guy runs, kills, hides his prey, flees. Also I think they need to add a feature like:how your recruits gonna kill, will they stay with you for some time or will they flee, will they work like distraction for guards like thieves or smh. 2) Co-op 3) customisation. Without stats, probably
If I remember correctly…other players in Unity’s co-op do get their face swapped out to look different from Arno, though it’s only relative to each player Each person is Arno from their perspective, but the other three will have different faces along with whatever robes and armor they’re wearing
Ubisoft will keep missing the marks in every franchise they have. The last time they hit something worth some awards is Far Cry 3 back 12 years ago. I wish AC or Far Cry was not a Ubisoft IP
I miss fast assassination animations... in Mirage, it's so slow that while the animation happens, a second enemy can land an attack and then will get kill by the chain assassination.
for the full sync thing, i think a good way to implement is was instead of it being needed for 100%, its like a guide on how to do the mission and guide you on how the original ancestor did it. cus imo, i always saw full sync as for the game to tell you this is how this assassin did this mission. idk feels cool to do it how the og did.
AC to me is singleplayer so any form of multiplayer including Coorp is not my cup of tea. Not cause I don't have friends, but more we all play different games and don't want to force friends into playing a game they don't want to in the first place. Same goes for the other way around.
I would like to add, assassinations with whichever weapon was equipped, other than the hidden blade. I really liked how they did this in the kenway trilogy.
Odyssey was about the Cult which was the earliest version of Templars that we had so the beginnings of Templars basically. And we play Alexios (Kassandra) because they are a descendant of the Isu Bloodline through Pythagoras which is why Layla chose them to find Isu Artifacts before Abstergo does and she got to Alexios through the Book of Herodotos and the Spear, the Spear containing the DNA of Alexios So all in all the game is trying to display the beginnings of the Templars and the search for Isu Artifacts through Alexios (Kassandra)
I know it’s been months since this video, but now that I’ve seen it, I couldn’t ignore one point: the lack of historical events. I understand that ‘Odyssey’ might seem to have fewer historical elements due to some ‘generic’ missions, but that game is FULL of battles and historical characters. Perhaps they don’t feel as significant because it’s extremely extensive. A Spanish historian on UA-cam, Miguel de Lys, analyzes the historical aspects of each ‘Assassin’s Creed’ game and mentions a great number of historical events in Odyssey. Similarly, in ‘Origins,’ although there are fewer events, most of them involve Cleopatra.
All i want is a freaking Unsheathe/sheathe weapon. It is so destrucrive for immersion when You can control if Your charcter going with sword in hand or sheathe. The forgot that because of the consol players but man it is one of the most important things. Also weapon disapearing in cutscenes sucks.
I’d love to see a renovation system but also like how AC3 homestead missions were as well. I want to be able to renovate places and then see an impact it has on the city/people, the way the people act, less guards/thugs walking around (police would be fine) but a bit like how less royalist walked around in unity and stuff like that
I like to think that instead of removing features, Ubisoft replaces it, and if it does well, it gets replaced regardless for another new gimmick, otherwise we wouldn''t have so many good one game features
From Unity, side content that makes the player think. That game has the Nostradamus Riddles and Paris Mysteries, where you the player need to work out what resources in-game to examine and how they lead to a solution. It feels more like a treasure hunt when you aren’t making a beeline to a quest marker. It’s more satisfying when you’ve picked out the pieces and fit them together from your own working. Odyssey does do this for which Spartan king is the cult member, and I think a mission in Legacy of the First Blade does too, but this type of content is more the outlier than the norm.
I hated that so much especially in ac 2, I just gave up repairing it because it breaks if you fall off a building which is common with ac2’s aged mechanics
2:47 I'd add to that. Not just a Manual Jump. Instead I'd say Remove All Automatic Parkour features. They always result in getting stuck on something while trying to walk around it. Instead have a Manual Jump that Always jumps the same height and length Every Time. Auto is unpredictable. The exact same input in the exact same place can jump from one building to another, or to a lower part of the same building, or off the building. The exact same input in the exact same place can go up to a window or to the left around it. The exact same input in the exact same place can leap to your death or onto a wall behind you.
I would also make the hidden blade do the same as a /kill console command. It kills everyone you use it on, regardless of their health. All balanced out by the requirement of getting close to them, or jumping into a place where other enemies can spot you. I'd combine it with a really low health bar for the player, to make good combat performance impressive, but more importantly incentivise stealth when you can't tank hits.
Well without them the games never gave much of a challenge, especially ezio trilogy weren’t for sync those games would’ve been breezed in like 5 hours or something like that
I loved the 100% Sync when it was only 1 thing needed to reach it, rather than in AC 3 Where it was two or more. Added to it, but didn't make it feel to challenging.
At this point Ubisoft has devolved assassin’s creed franchise into basically just the mosh pit brand where they offload/dump new game ideas that Ubisoft’s Corporate Executives have no absolutely NO FAITH will ever sell as it’s own original standalone IP’s.
imagine if they'd had renovations in Syndicate. It could have meant that once you'd freed an area from the Templars you could then start doing renovations to shops and similar to increase the number of working people and improve community spirit and reduce crime or decrease the chances of the Templars trying to take it back over. I know those last two weren't features of that game, but they would have been good additions. So would the option to start a new game in Unity and Syndicate.
Better lip syncing and better animations is one thing I'd like. Ubisoft did pretty well with avatars facial animation but assassins creed facial animations have got worse
Ubisoft needs to take notes from the Batman Arkham Knight game. If they mimicked the idea of combos, cool animations, polish the camera work and pacing it would be perfect. Make it more realistic to separate it from Batman obviously. I think combo animations are cool and special abilities as well.
Really funny to me that your first comment is exactly what I was thinking while re-playing Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. :) I really think these tombs were awesome and should come back. Also agree with many other of your comments.
They had multiple good settings for multiplayer after unity -Syndicate already had the two players, could’ve made missions where they can be played with another person or regular -Valhalla imagine raiding places with some friends and they could have much larger raids (like a stronghold) that give special things
Imagine the "Assassins Creed" IP splitting in two, two different games both connected. The first would still "Assassins Creed" where we get more games like AC1-AC4, old school return to roots type games. Along with that, the complimentary side, a "Templar Order" game. A game more like the newer games with a more RPG and combat focus.
The thing about Valhalla is that the people of Scandinavia didn't have to believe in their religion it just was they had no word equivalent to religion or believe, so when eivor(odin) is fighting jötuns the scandinavians thought they could fight against the giants, and they thought they could travel the nine realms Most times when Eivor is fighting the giants or draugr they are dreams of Odins life and she persevering them as giants, gods, and goddess
I’ve played AC ever since the first game came out and fell in love. And while the Ezio trilogy is fantastic, and I’ve played and loved in its own way every AC game since then, but I actually do like AC Odyssey - A LOT!! Valhalla had its issues, but Odyssey is my favorite. This is probably because I love mythology and it was fun to immerse myself in ancient Greece. While I do love the Templars vs Assassins storyline, I didn’t mind the Cult of Kosmos as this was the most ancient AC game so far, so those organizations weren’t established yet. I didn’t mind the gameplay. I guess I got used to the open world parkour like in other modern games, so the transition seemed smooth to me. Yes, more elaborate and puzzled tombs or chases would be nice, as well as more historically accurate events, but Odyssey was very well done IMO. A perfect game? No, but it’s up there.
Black Flag doesn’t need a remake. It plays very well in 2024 and is available on every current gaming platform including the Switch. Ubisoft doesn’t need to do a Naughty Dog and remake/remaster something that still holds up very well. Remake the first game, that hasn’t seen a new release since the PC port, and isn’t playable on modern PlayStation hardware. The gameplay hasn’t aged the best, although it’s far from unplayable, and it’s the perfect opportunity to do a Bloodlines remake too to package with the game or include as a DLC.
Okay, most of these are good, but, we are a BIG disagree on the 100% sync objectives. But other than that, fairly good list, and i agree with most of these.
They should bring back being able to manually grab after jumping, as you'd reach out a little further, the amount of times I've died cuase the auto grab feature wouldn't grab a ledge is carzy
Co-op is my biggest wish. I play games to socialize with friends and if any of the new rpg styles had coop I dont think I'd ever play another game. Specifically if odessey was coop. I don't even need it to be anything fancy or difficult. Just the same world, and let me be with 1-3 friends. Doing missions and side missions and pirating.
So I stopped playing the AC franchise after 3, still havent played Black Flag, Syndicate or Unity... I decided to dip my toes in and i bought origins and valhalla and odyssey. So far im having immense fun. But I did want to say that valhalla does have that rennovating system with the town, giving you upgrades and increasing your power and stuff. it was like a main mechanic of the game. Shame they dont have it in all of them.
I found the tombs in Valhalla to be fun. Sure they involved carrying spheres to unlock doors but I enjoyed solving the puzzles and seeing the different designs of the tombs. They are much better than the tombs in Odyssey.
Odyssey also had tombs but they aren't even worth mentioning. I love that game (it's my favorite in the series) but the only good thing about the tombs is that they each gave you 1 skill point when you found a specific thing in them. Unless they were a part of a DLC they were completely forgettable and just boring chores consisting of lighting braziers to remember your path, pushing crates, avoiding spike traps, and fighting Snakes (which were unironically one of the most dangerous enemies in the game).
The introductory mission for Fate of Atlantis did have Layla navigate tombs in the modern day, the closest thing in a previous game being Brotherhood where Desmond went through the Monteriggioni tunnel and the Colosseum vault. Valhalla did have Layla also go through the damaged Yggdrasil complex to get to the main mechanism.
AC, at least the open world rpg games, should implement a multiplayer similar to what rockstar does with red dead online or gta online. All players enter the map and can select different roles in the game, hunt down templars, etc. and to be able to play with friends you can create a guild or bureau of your own and invite friends (similar to the posse feature on red dead online). Personally I think that would incentivize players to continually keep coming back and enhance the longevity of the game itself.
Another thing they need to bring back is being able to run on the wire crossings. I miss being able to do that. Slugging across ropes and shit like that sucks. And also yes, they need to bring back decending parkour in unity.
I agree with all of these except armor degradation, I agree it encourages you to become more skillful and get hit less but honestly when I played then i used to think of it as annoying.

1. Two clear factions, a group with revolutionaries one side, and another bearing crosses;
2. Sooooo many historical events that the MC can participate in;
3. Variety of weapons and fighting styles;
4. Variety in environments, from buildings to mountains, and seas to rivers; and finally
5. 333 years of colonization could give us time for both the Assassins and the Templars to set their roots down, might even have enough historical playground to set a new trilogy there.
My list of features that need to come back:
1)Recruits. I really like how you can just walk slowly, while your friends doing everything for you. Probably they even could make "command" System. How I see it:You hold call button, look at place, where you want a victim to be hidden, then you release it and done! Your guy runs, kills, hides his prey, flees. Also I think they need to add a feature like:how your recruits gonna kill, will they stay with you for some time or will they flee, will they work like distraction for guards like thieves or smh.
2) Co-op
3) customisation. Without stats, probably
The one thing we really need are camera relative ejects! Being locked to hard axes based on player orientation is nothing but a step back
If I remember correctly…other players in Unity’s co-op do get their face swapped out to look different from Arno, though it’s only relative to each player
Each person is Arno from their perspective, but the other three will have different faces along with whatever robes and armor they’re wearing
Ubisoft will keep missing the marks in every franchise they have. The last time they hit something worth some awards is Far Cry 3 back 12 years ago. I wish AC or Far Cry was not a Ubisoft IP
i didnt like the renovation system but it was nice that it gave us income without being forced to grind for it
I miss fast assassination animations... in Mirage, it's so slow that while the animation happens, a second enemy can land an attack and then will get kill by the chain assassination.
for the full sync thing, i think a good way to implement is was instead of it being needed for 100%, its like a guide on how to do the mission and guide you on how the original ancestor did it. cus imo, i always saw full sync as for the game to tell you this is how this assassin did this mission. idk feels cool to do it how the og did.
AC to me is singleplayer so any form of multiplayer including Coorp is not my cup of tea. Not cause I don't have friends, but more we all play different games and don't want to force friends into playing a game they don't want to in the first place. Same goes for the other way around.
I would like to add, assassinations with whichever weapon was equipped, other than the hidden blade. I really liked how they did this in the kenway trilogy.
Odyssey was about the Cult which was the earliest version of Templars that we had so the beginnings of Templars basically. And we play Alexios (Kassandra) because they are a descendant of the Isu Bloodline through Pythagoras which is why Layla chose them to find Isu Artifacts before Abstergo does and she got to Alexios through the Book of Herodotos and the Spear, the Spear containing the DNA of Alexios
So all in all the game is trying to display the beginnings of the Templars and the search for Isu Artifacts through Alexios (Kassandra)
I know it’s been months since this video, but now that I’ve seen it, I couldn’t ignore one point: the lack of historical events. I understand that ‘Odyssey’ might seem to have fewer historical elements due to some ‘generic’ missions, but that game is FULL of battles and historical characters. Perhaps they don’t feel as significant because it’s extremely extensive. A Spanish historian on UA-cam, Miguel de Lys, analyzes the historical aspects of each ‘Assassin’s Creed’ game and mentions a great number of historical events in Odyssey. Similarly, in ‘Origins,’ although there are fewer events, most of them involve Cleopatra.
That tesco reference made me laugh, especially because I am currently at work at tesco. 😂
All i want is a freaking Unsheathe/sheathe weapon. It is so destrucrive for immersion when You can control if Your charcter going with sword in hand or sheathe. The forgot that because of the consol players but man it is one of the most important things. Also weapon disapearing in cutscenes sucks.
Ya the renovated buildings should return because it's so stressful trying to get money
I’d love to see a renovation system but also like how AC3 homestead missions were as well. I want to be able to renovate places and then see an impact it has on the city/people, the way the people act, less guards/thugs walking around (police would be fine) but a bit like how less royalist walked around in unity and stuff like that
I like to think that instead of removing features, Ubisoft replaces it, and if it does well, it gets replaced regardless for another new gimmick, otherwise we wouldn''t have so many good one game features
Agreeable features, that would be cool if we got the return of multiplayer in maybe "Codename Red" 🤷♂
From Unity, side content that makes the player think. That game has the Nostradamus Riddles and Paris Mysteries, where you the player need to work out what resources in-game to examine and how they lead to a solution. It feels more like a treasure hunt when you aren’t making a beeline to a quest marker. It’s more satisfying when you’ve picked out the pieces and fit them together from your own working. Odyssey does do this for which Spartan king is the cult member, and I think a mission in Legacy of the First Blade does too, but this type of content is more the outlier than the norm.
I wouldn't want renevoantion either
Armor Degredation?? Fuck no.
I hated that so much especially in ac 2, I just gave up repairing it because it breaks if you fall off a building which is common with ac2’s aged mechanics
2:47 I'd add to that. Not just a Manual Jump. Instead I'd say Remove All Automatic Parkour features. They always result in getting stuck on something while trying to walk around it. Instead have a Manual Jump that Always jumps the same height and length Every Time. Auto is unpredictable. The exact same input in the exact same place can jump from one building to another, or to a lower part of the same building, or off the building. The exact same input in the exact same place can go up to a window or to the left around it. The exact same input in the exact same place can leap to your death or onto a wall behind you.
I would also make the hidden blade do the same as a /kill console command. It kills everyone you use it on, regardless of their health. All balanced out by the requirement of getting close to them, or jumping into a place where other enemies can spot you.
I'd combine it with a really low health bar for the player, to make good combat performance impressive, but more importantly incentivise stealth when you can't tank hits.
If replayable missions include optional objectives and 100% synch, they can stay away. They’re so annoying when you need them for an achievement
Well without them the games never gave much of a challenge, especially ezio trilogy weren’t for sync those games would’ve been breezed in like 5 hours or something like that
You actually forgot to mention that Assassin's Creed Origins, and I do agree that the hidden blade combat NEEDS to return. Overall, good video 👍
I loved the 100% Sync when it was only 1 thing needed to reach it, rather than in AC 3 Where it was two or more. Added to it, but didn't make it feel to challenging.
It's sad that Rouge was the last AC game were you could pull out your hidden blades and walk around with them
Imagine a storyline that reveals that Hydra is an offshoot of the Templars. MCU and AC could be part of the same world.
I'm glad that they brought hidden blade combat back in Shadows in the tanto style 🙏🏽
I so much agree with almost everything you said! Personally i really really want the return of hidden blade combat. Great video btw😀😀!!!!
Thank you!
At this point Ubisoft has devolved assassin’s creed franchise into basically just the mosh pit brand where they offload/dump new game ideas that Ubisoft’s Corporate Executives have no absolutely NO FAITH will ever sell as it’s own original standalone IP’s.
imagine if they'd had renovations in Syndicate. It could have meant that once you'd freed an area from the Templars you could then start doing renovations to shops and similar to increase the number of working people and improve community spirit and reduce crime or decrease the chances of the Templars trying to take it back over. I know those last two weren't features of that game, but they would have been good additions. So would the option to start a new game in Unity and Syndicate.
Better lip syncing and better animations is one thing I'd like. Ubisoft did pretty well with avatars facial animation but assassins creed facial animations have got worse
Ubisoft needs to take notes from the Batman Arkham Knight game. If they mimicked the idea of combos, cool animations, polish the camera work and pacing it would be perfect. Make it more realistic to separate it from Batman obviously. I think combo animations are cool and special abilities as well.
Honorable Mention: Being an actual assassin in a brotherhood, not some guy that occasionally helps them
Really funny to me that your first comment is exactly what I was thinking while re-playing Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. :) I really think these tombs were awesome and should come back. Also agree with many other of your comments.
They had multiple good settings for multiplayer after unity
-Syndicate already had the two players, could’ve made missions where they can be played with another person or regular
-Valhalla imagine raiding places with some friends and they could have much larger raids (like a stronghold) that give special things
Imagine the "Assassins Creed" IP splitting in two, two different games both connected. The first would still "Assassins Creed" where we get more games like AC1-AC4, old school return to roots type games. Along with that, the complimentary side, a "Templar Order" game. A game more like the newer games with a more RPG and combat focus.
The thing about Valhalla is that the people of Scandinavia didn't have to believe in their religion it just was they had no word equivalent to religion or believe, so when eivor(odin) is fighting jötuns the scandinavians thought they could fight against the giants, and they thought they could travel the nine realms
Most times when Eivor is fighting the giants or draugr they are dreams of Odins life and she persevering them as giants, gods, and goddess
man...imagine an assassin's creed game with ezio's tomb missions, conner's hidden blade combat system, and arno's parkour and stealth system
I’ve played AC ever since the first game came out and fell in love. And while the Ezio trilogy is fantastic, and I’ve played and loved in its own way every AC game since then, but I actually do like AC Odyssey - A LOT!! Valhalla had its issues, but Odyssey is my favorite. This is probably because I love mythology and it was fun to immerse myself in ancient Greece. While I do love the Templars vs Assassins storyline, I didn’t mind the Cult of Kosmos as this was the most ancient AC game so far, so those organizations weren’t established yet. I didn’t mind the gameplay. I guess I got used to the open world parkour like in other modern games, so the transition seemed smooth to me. Yes, more elaborate and puzzled tombs or chases would be nice, as well as more historically accurate events, but Odyssey was very well done IMO. A perfect game? No, but it’s up there.
Counter kills should make a return. I know it makes the game easy but the counters especially the dual ones were so cinematic to watch
The most dire feature Assassins Creed is in need of currently is Assassins Creed. We've not had Assassins Creed in almost 10 years.
How do you see the old/new Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag remake yourself, was it really necessary...?😑
I love it. I think AC1/AC2 and black flag are worth remakes
@@TheHiddenOne690
Got it, thanks for the reply.
Black Flag doesn’t need a remake. It plays very well in 2024 and is available on every current gaming platform including the Switch. Ubisoft doesn’t need to do a Naughty Dog and remake/remaster something that still holds up very well. Remake the first game, that hasn’t seen a new release since the PC port, and isn’t playable on modern PlayStation hardware. The gameplay hasn’t aged the best, although it’s far from unplayable, and it’s the perfect opportunity to do a Bloodlines remake too to package with the game or include as a DLC.
I hate pressing a button to lock on enemies. When I get into combat locking on to enemies should be automatic like the old games.
i think with the counter thing it should be like in shadow of war/mordor where you knock them down instead of insta killing
Okay, most of these are good, but, we are a BIG disagree on the 100% sync objectives. But other than that, fairly good list, and i agree with most of these.
My take: I don’t like Unity’s parkour system, it just looks like Arno is flying. Although it is smooth
They should bring back being able to manually grab after jumping, as you'd reach out a little further, the amount of times I've died cuase the auto grab feature wouldn't grab a ledge is carzy
The repair feature makes alot of sense for a rpg game to be fair
I would like to be able beat up enemies with brooms again. Also the spear throw was awesome
Bomb crafting was my favorite feature from revelations and till this day i am still sour about it never making a return.
and how we can get this video in ubisoft line vision?
It's simple, you don't. Ubisoft are blind to seeing videos that suggest improvements
Gotta love the hidden one ❤️😹😁
renovation is technically still there even as late as valhalla. Its same system, just different coat of paint
Co-op is my biggest wish. I play games to socialize with friends and if any of the new rpg styles had coop I dont think I'd ever play another game.
Specifically if odessey was coop. I don't even need it to be anything fancy or difficult. Just the same world, and let me be with 1-3 friends. Doing missions and side missions and pirating.
You should update the title and have it say "10 MORE Features that NEED to Return in AC"
Give me the option of having the AC2 controls when parkoring vs the newer controls. Personally I'd take the AC2 controls 100% of the time.
main story coop would be sick if they do it right
Did you forget?
We did meet napoleon at ac unity
To that coop point. I would love to Raid villages on rivers in coop instead of AI
Fun fact: Oswald from ac Valhalla was a real king, but we know almost nothing about him
So I stopped playing the AC franchise after 3, still havent played Black Flag, Syndicate or Unity... I decided to dip my toes in and i bought origins and valhalla and odyssey. So far im having immense fun. But I did want to say that valhalla does have that rennovating system with the town, giving you upgrades and increasing your power and stuff. it was like a main mechanic of the game. Shame they dont have it in all of them.
I found the tombs in Valhalla to be fun. Sure they involved carrying spheres to unlock doors but I enjoyed solving the puzzles and seeing the different designs of the tombs. They are much better than the tombs in Odyssey.
Great points, and great video man.
Appreciate it!
Odyssey also had tombs but they aren't even worth mentioning. I love that game (it's my favorite in the series) but the only good thing about the tombs is that they each gave you 1 skill point when you found a specific thing in them.
Unless they were a part of a DLC they were completely forgettable and just boring chores consisting of lighting braziers to remember your path, pushing crates, avoiding spike traps, and fighting Snakes (which were unironically one of the most dangerous enemies in the game).
The introductory mission for Fate of Atlantis did have Layla navigate tombs in the modern day, the closest thing in a previous game being Brotherhood where Desmond went through the Monteriggioni tunnel and the Colosseum vault. Valhalla did have Layla also go through the damaged Yggdrasil complex to get to the main mechanism.
AC, at least the open world rpg games, should implement a multiplayer similar to what rockstar does with red dead online or gta online. All players enter the map and can select different roles in the game, hunt down templars, etc. and to be able to play with friends you can create a guild or bureau of your own and invite friends (similar to the posse feature on red dead online). Personally I think that would incentivize players to continually keep coming back and enhance the longevity of the game itself.
Another thing they need to bring back is being able to run on the wire crossings. I miss being able to do that. Slugging across ropes and shit like that sucks. And also yes, they need to bring back decending parkour in unity.
I agree with all of these except armor degradation, I agree it encourages you to become more skillful and get hit less but honestly when I played then i used to think of it as annoying.
I personally say we should make AC games like ac3,black flag and rogue because I believe those 3 are the best ac games OAT
Number 1 feature that needs to return in Assassin's Creed: Be good
An improved version of Unity's gear / outfit customisation would be dope
