      Not only that, with sword and dagger, if you miss counter you will still block and either negate damage or take reduced damage.
      With hidden blade you eat full damage if you miss counter. In cases of elite enemies, thats 3-4 bars of damage.

    Fun fact, using the hidden blade counter on the last boss is actually an exploit. Normally the game has a long drawn out cat and mouse game, where you have to find the right one out of a bunch of illusions around the courtyard. Funny that this challenges rules actually made the final boss easier!

      @@CErra310 You can, but using a counter with the hidden blade instant kills every enemy regardless of difficulty. The frame to land the counter is much smaller than other weapons, and instead of blocking and avoiding damage if you fail, you take full damage, but landing the hidden blade counter just ends the fight immediately from the start without having to do anything extra. Like it's been forever since I played it, but I think countering with the hidden blade just ends it period. Like he doesn't even do the clone phase.

    You can do death from above, but need to lock on, position yourself and jump and do high profile assassinate directly on the target. It’s tricky to get the timing but once you do, you can use it for many of the bosses. Only in later games did they have auto-lock-on for it but it was always possible.
    I recently did a full stealth run (doesn’t count the ones that are impossible to stealth for story reasons) and the only one I messed up on was the executioner.

    • @Spirit_of_Yubel

      Because it's not really an Air Assassination. It's gameplay jank. The game is skipping the traditional "Land on Ground" animation and skipping right to the High Profile "Jump and Kill" animation, making it *Appear* as an Air Assassination. Likewise, considering how obtuse pulling it off is, it's clear that it's not an intended feature of AC1 as a whole.

      @@btchiaintkidding7837 No, that's not an Air Assassination. What you're describing is technically a sort of "Jank" in the gameplay. What's happening is the game is triggering a "High Profile Assassination" by pressing the buttons at the exact times that it skips the "Land on Ground" animations and goes right into the High Profile "Jump and Stab" killmove animation. But the problem was that the windows for pulling this off are so tiny and tight, it's not exactly something someone's going to do naturally. AC1 never had Air Assassinations period, only gameplay jank.

      the game has combo system, if you spam r1 then the guards will literally block everything and wont d^e, you have to rhytmically time your attacks to pull combo k^ll and successfully doing so lets you k^ll them with a takedown cutscene/animation instead of ragdoll. and performing combo k^lls and counter k^lls with takedowns like these builds fear/intimidation meter for the remaining enemies so they will yield or run away
      at lowest level it takes, 3 hits to break enemy posture/HP then the next blow will be a k^llmove, you upgrade this with story progression and by the emd of the game it only takes 1 hit to break enemy posture.

Batman has to put on a VR headset and enter the machine to confront The Riddler, who seems to have total control over the simulation.

As the other comments say, the hidden blades are actually the most powerful weapons (at least up to AC Revelations) due to them being able to counter every weapon, albeit having as much smaller counter window. I remember that in AC Brotherhood there used to be Trials that you could do and one of them was how many combat kills you could get with only the hidden blades and the enemies would slowly ramp up to difficulty up to the Papal guards themselves. An interesting playthrough I did once in Brotherhood was trying to complete the game by disarming every enemy and using their weapon to kill them. I don't remember how far I got into the game but it would be pretty interesting imho.

    I would love to see this in every game in the series, just think, you would have at least 12 more video ideas.

    This is the only challenge you’ve ever done I think I could do. When I originally played the assassins creed games I just didn’t deal with swapping weapons because the hidden blade is so much more fun to hit timing windows with.

    Great video, as always. I would definitely like to see you try the rest of the series with these rules, however, as many people pointed out, it might be to easy. So why not go the Batman path and use only your fists? (Except for the mandatory targets obviously)

    This just made me realize how great 2007 was for gaming. In one year we got Assassin’s Creed, Halo 3, Mass Effect, Team Fortress 2, Crysis, CoD: Modern Warfare, and Lego Star Wars: The complete saga among others. I don’t think it can get much better and historic than that

  • @biostar4

    It was really fun. Been a long time since I played this game. A trip down memory lane even for me. Used to watch an other youtuber, Stabguy36, for trick kills and strategies (while in the first game you can't do air assassination, you can, however, run from a certain high under a certain distance to do a sort of "running jump assassination").
    But considering how it is much more easier to use the hidden bladesin the next games, and also the fact that there is a bunch of sequels, I would rather you do AC2 and/or Ac unity next. AC2 is a must, after all, and as far as I know in Unity the hidden blade has been devolved to just an assassination tool, rather then being a weapon on its own.

    Desynchronization in Mirage looks cool. I haven't had it happen yet.
    Saruman, are we good now? GAH MY SPLEEN! 9:52 OH NO, THE PLOT! 10:22 You said it right the first time. I don't remember how I got in. I might have used stealth.
    I hate annoying NPCs. I might have killed one too. I was trying to punch her but stabbed her instead.
    I do remember this game having bad AI. I saw guards kill themselves because they couldn't share a ladder.
    14:21 Subtlety: Making use of clever and indirect methods to achieve something.
    Air assassination wasn't introduced in AC 2. Altair can air assassinate but it's harder to pull off. Altair must be a vampire if water kills him.
    The last boss fight was probably the best part in the game.

    Malik's line at 14:15 always bothered me because the real life Assassins' whole shtick was that they weren't subtle but instead would kill people in broad daylight and be like "Yes, it was me! I did it like this!"

  • @resurgam_b7

    You should do the rest of the series, but pick a different weapon for each game. For 2 it could be throwing knives, Brotherhood only weapons retrieved from enemies, etc.

    I think if you do Assassin's Creed II, I will probably cry seeing those cutscenes again. ACII moved me in a way no game really has since. Such a brilliant piece of art.

    AC: Brotherhood with hidden blade only is still one of my favorite challenge runs. Max notoriety, no group fighting, and plenty of social stealth. Actually had good use of the coin throw to get past guard squads.
