overall a decent game. 7/10 sounds bout right. stealth is well done and the black box styled assassinations made a welcome return. baghdad is pretty. parkour system hurts my soul tho, such a fall from grace from ac1
for me it's 6/10 also i don't know where you got "12 hours to complete" because for me it took roughly 1-2 hours to beat 50% of the story, (haven't finished it yet, but i can only assume the other 50% shouldn't take 10 entire hours lol)
The 12 hours is pretty accurate if you just take your time dude, you probably just rushed it and good for you but it's not the intended way, explore Baghdad a little, it's one of the most well done and impressive settings in the series, it's really this game's strongest point!
@@TheHighGroundItself i didn't even rush it, it was done by accident.. plus, how do we accurately measure the hours of a game if non-content player actions are included in the equation? i often see people complain about decent games for being "less than 4 hours" then proceed to compare it to a game that's objectively shorter just because they themselves got more hours into that game.. at that point, the length of a game becomes subjective.. by that logic AC1 took me 100 hours to complete the main story (inb4 "skill issue" no, i just like exploring) but i'm not going around saying AC1 is bigger than Mirage.. obviously it's not.. i'm just curious why everyone these days is so obsessed with bringing up a game's duration as an argument for what makes that game good, if the hours themselves don't measure up.. i'm not even using my 2 hours of gameplay as an argument for why Mirage is 6/10 for me.. just trying to figure out how to accurately measure the hours of a game.. had this exact discussion with someone else about South Park the other day (bro was complaining that Snow Day is "only 4 hours of content as opposed to Stick If Truth" but if we exclusively look at content instead of looking at messing around, dying, exploring, etc, Snow Day is bigger than Stick Of Truth.. so i'm currently researching this trend.. thanks for your interpretation, i will definitely look deeper into it..
@@TimosYT oooh, when you guys say "rush through" you're referring to stealth? in that case (and only in that case) i might've rushed through it.. but other than that, i didn't rush the game itself, my hours were done by accident... (also i did play side quests) but thanks for answering my question at least, because no joke i have literally been thinking about this one for the past 3 days (i can finally go to sleep now /j)
lmfao, now you can sleep well. Tbf the game relies heavily on stealth making the game longer, it’s the main gameplay element, playing the game through combat mainly is probably tough and annoying

Definitely, parkour was basically Valhalla but better, and that doesn’t say much, though city design was well done to aid parkour.
for me it's 6/10

i'm not even using my 2 hours of gameplay as an argument for why Mirage is 6/10 for me.. just trying to figure out how to accurately measure the hours of a game.. had this exact discussion with someone else about South Park the other day (bro was complaining that Snow Day is "only 4 hours of content as opposed to Stick If Truth" but if we exclusively look at content instead of looking at messing around, dying, exploring, etc, Snow Day is bigger than Stick Of Truth.. so i'm currently researching this trend.. thanks for your interpretation, i will definitely look deeper into it..
I didn’t rush through it, played it in pure stealth and took me 11-12 hours (also I didn’t play side quests)

its a good game 10/10
7/10??
its just a 5/10 game, just very mediocre
a 3/10 assassins creed game tho
It’s a solid assassin’s creed for me, it’s stealth heavy, and the story is all about the creed.
