Everyone wants to play as the bad guys. But Rogue wants you to question whether or not you were doing that already. Assassins vs Templars has never been black and white. But does Rogue make you realise that any better than the other games? Or is it just Assassin's Creed with a Templar coat of paint?

@Sevendor Just a very high quality 8D audio experience
The biggest flaw in AC Rogue was not having Shay wear a hood like he does in the cover art
Facts
He can wear the hood
But only with specific outfit and forbidded area
The hood is a symbol of the Assassins, so it makes sense he'd just use the collar.
That Ubisoft outfit with the permanent gas mask is nice tho... The assassin killer outfit I think
One weird thing is when you have an outfit without a hood it acts like you have one still and your hands go up but nothing happens
Technically those aren’t penguins, as they don’t live in the Northern hemisphere. Those are Great Auks, a species of flightless aquatic birds related to puffins and guillemots. They were hunted to extinction in the mid-19th century, so their inclusion in Rogue is a really cool historical detail.

he's built different
When he is shot at the end of the introduction, I see that as a failed leap of faith. In all other games, that is the one scene that introduces the Leap. But here he is shot down by his own Creed and lands hard onto the ice below. Kind of fitting.
nice catch
I don't think there is a leap of faith scene in odyssey if I remember correctly
@@roosterball1999 well both Kassandra and alexios were thrown off the cliff lol, i think they wanted us to take that as a leap of faith.

Props to Ubisoft for showing that back in the 18th century, there were penguins (or penguin-like seabirds) in the arctic side of the planet.
Before they went extinct because of human hunting activities.
I think they were called great auks
Ubi is usually environmentally accurate for the times the games take place in
AC Origins’s historical accuracy is awesome
Well in fact Rectus it can turn out that it isn’t always the voracity of Man that causes extinction events and that scientists actually believe it was civil war that ended The Great Northern penguins.
It turns out that their species were tragically snuffed out by their own hubris.
It’s thought that this is why ancient fishing tribes were recorded in cave paintings and tablet etchings referring to them with names like “Bitchy Birds”, “Mean Bois” and “Assholes.” History is a many-layered cake, eh?
You can call Ubisoft many things, but you can’t deny that the amount of work into making sure their games are as historically accurate as possible is crazy.

9:34 having him established as an experienced assassin who's recovering from an injury, thus explaining their dependence on him, having him arguing with Achilles before with achilles repeatedly pulling rank and him growing frustrated with their blind loyalty with him instead of trying to save civies would aid the betrayel
You hit the nail on the head mate, I was thinking a similar note
I am 2 years late, but this could also be integrated in the tutorials. You practice being an assassin in a simply way because a junior is observing you as an example. Then you could reverse it by getting hunted by an assassin as their practice, which is both a way to tutorialise this games new feature as well as subtly hint at it being a future game mechanic.
Rogue feels like a passion project that was rushed. It’s such a amazing concept, and great story, but it needed to be fleshed out. The ending left me thinking “that was it?” It should have had another year.
Thats basically 90% of games imo
Unity is the passion project that was rushed. Rogue is just a cash in for last gen console users.
Yep, same here. I can take a short story, but this was ridiculously short to the point that it may have fared a bit more respect as DLC for Black Flag and not a full release.
It is not
Every AC game after 2 got this treatment. They were making YEARLY games.
Shay's delivery of his lines before he was shot and fell off the cliff was just amazing.
His voice acting is some of the best in the series imo
Considering his terrible Irish accent, he did a great job
at least he managed to pack some emotion into those words
@@mahkimahkila6396 the actor is a top guy too, he clearly has a passion for the series and really seemed to enjoy the character and working on him. Great casting.
@@mahkimahkila6396 naaaaaaaah I have got to disagree. Emotion was present fair enough, but as an irishman myself, I think the accent is so atrocious that it's just constantly distracting. It's not like there aren't any Irish voice actors they couldve drawn on either. They should have just made him be from somewhere else instead of ruining every cutscene by having a cartoonish, and imo borderline offensive accent. Liam's voice is perfect, to the point that I wish they got that actor to just voice shay
@@dylanmaguire3595 weeeeeeelll as someone fortunate enough to not be Irish, I thought it was incredible acting, especially given how terrible the direction and script was

They are extinct thanks to the little help from humans.
Nice to know that info
Thanks
@Keyser94 Woah I didn’t know humans existed.
Ohhh, sorry to hear they went extinct but that's pretty interesting.
They are similar to penguins but they are not related. They're not cousins.
That’s a really good point. In Black Flag so many missions did end with I’ll meet you in a month here or at least meet me here when you are ready. Really encouraged that open world exploration...
Black Flag needed 50hrs plus before fully beaten it.
Whitelight talks about earthquake in Lisbon "I don't care"
Me a Portuguese watching "okay cool"
This is weird to me. I have noticed that a lot of critiques deem a trope of "dead bodies have to be characters to care about" as the only way to make the consumer care. People still have empathy, people still care about nobodies.
@@Riprie Dude can't take a joke? Besides im not criticising in any shape or form. I love Whitelight videos, just found it funny that he said that he didn't care lmao
@@Snipershootful Sorry if you understood me wrong. I was not critcising you. I just hitched to your relative comment. It was just an observation I've made. I keep noticing how deaths of noessential characters in plot events can't been seen as people to feel compassion towards by critiques.
@@Riprie that's normal because us the player doesn't spend enough time to develop any empathy or emotions towards NBC's that just show once in a videogame, so it's totally understandable.
Francisco Ribeiro he...dude it looked like he was agreeing with you more than anything
I had two big problems with this game:
1) Its very short, and you join templars very late. It really doesnt use its awesome premise much
2) Assassins are too bad guys and templars way too much a good guys from a sudden. I always liked Haytham's era templars, their methods were extreme but they had goals that made sense. I would love to explore the "bad guy" perspective more, instead of just acting Templars are goody good shoes now
I just took that as the Templar’s understood Shay was more loyal to the cause of helping the world than the Templar’s specifically, and having him join in on any shady shit would likely make him turn
Riastradh Plus! There should more explosions!
But seriously I TOTALLY agree. Ubisoft are extremely skilled craftsmen but it seems they might feel the need to balance violence by constantly aspiring to absolute moral clarity.
I’ve often wondered if maybe the ratings board sees it the same way. I would like to see the moral ambiguities of both sides leaned in to. Don’t bother specifically describing morality at all in the motivations of characters or the factions, just describe their wants and actions and let us judge or not judge and simply play.
(Ooh! And boobies! More explosions and boobies!)
I also hated how at the beginning Shay didn't take being an assassin very seriously, so when the first few Templars he talks to give him the slightest bit of "But what if order is good tho" he is flabbergasted and can only give incredibly limp responses before he starts being converted.
It would have been cool to see an Assassin who actually believed in the cause and knew what he was talking about come to believe in a different world view but in this one it's just the Templars giving Shay the first complete view he's ever had.
Thomas Birt you gotta admit tho, convincingly writing someone going from “freedom is great” to “yknow maybe freedom isn’t so good” is very difficult since most people do agree freedom is pretty neato
@@riastradh that's because compared to all the interactions so far, colonial templar were the most open minded ones, more human actually, remember how shocked Connor was when it's revealed that Charles Lee had nothing too do with the fire that killed his mother? Any other interactions of templars would definitely burn Connor's village to the ground.
"Liam has a heated gamer moment" is perhaps one of my favourite things ive heard in a while. Also wasn't the reason Achilles realized Shay was right was because he believed that the vault things held Apples of Eden but then when he saw it realised that it wasnt an apple.
You're comparing apples and dodecahedrons xD

'Watch Dogs - 5 years later' introduced me to this channel in October 2019.
The bases in this game were so satisfying the enemy placement meant you could parkour and sprint through them and stealth kill so smoothly it was such great level design.

Ah this ones close to my heart, I lost my copy of black flag in a move and got this a bit later, didn’t get into it until my grandpa died, may seem odd but since I couldn’t sleep that night I stayed up playing this. Also unless I’m mistaken this was released along side unity, and I took that as pity for those of us who didn’t have next gen consoles. Wish they’d expand the story, my 14 year old self loved the story but my 20 year old self wishes it was a bit more deep

Lovingcanadian CAN I really enjoyed the game back in the day, it’s definitely worth playing if you’re a fan of the older AC games. The only problems I had with it were that that the tutorial starts out really slow, and it takes a few hours before the game starts to pick up. Also, the ending was pretty disappointing, but I won’t spoil anything...

@@fatalmokrane no man, the game was bad, thats why we did not like it
NSA mine too
One of the things I kinda missed was the feeling of being on the other end of the power scales; in other ac games you're always an underdog, hiding while the templars have control over the government, armies and are using a lot of money to gain influence.
In Rogue you made enormous amounts of money, but you use it to upgrade one ship, your outfits and clothes and improve houses. It didn't feel like you are in charge, leading an army or simply using money and power to get things done.. you're still an outlaw and at times even the English soldiers attacked me, minutes after I fought to give them a fort.
(I know there are moments you help armies and fleets, but I'm talking about the overall feeling of the game; being on the side of the templars felt like being with a slightly different faction of assassins)
AC Rogue for me is 8.3/10.
I actually just found my old ps3 again and played rogue for a few hours, it was epic
It was my last game in ps3 before jump to ps4 so I have a good feel of the game.. like a "Good Bye". =,^)

The fantasy of Rogue?
*Being a Mercenary in the Seven Years' War.* Partaking in espionage, stealing documents, seeing the world change and learning about the events in Europe.
My biggest problem with this franchise is how the fictional history overshadows the real history. Joan of Arc? Had ancient blood. The leader of the Nationalist party in WW2? Had an apple of Eden.
It removes a lot of the mystery and magic from our real history. In Rogue, the fictional plot doesn't overshadow the historical war.
The fantasy for me, in this game, has always being a Colonial Naval Agent partaking on one of the biggest wars of the past.
Exactly, spot on.
If Ubisoft just removed themselves from the pseudo history lessons, and outright make fictional games like the rest of them, theyd do us a great service.
Imagine learning about great people of history through assasins creed with a black and white view of assassins vs templars, it is not only very misinformative it is downright dangerous to children not yet well versed with history.
Peter Panther yeah, I really feel like one of the core reasons why I love ac2, brotherhood’s and ac 3 story so much is because the 3 have hard influences of real story. More so than the other games, it helps a lot in the immersion.
3 is 80% about the American revolutiom, 2 has the Leonardo Da vinci era and although it doesn’t really cover BIG events , the atmosphere is nearly perfect and having Leonardo be constantly a part of the story, have the doctors wear the bird masks due to the eminent plague and the carnaval aspect in the second act ... it makes it such a good feeling game for those who appreciate that historical period. You obviously can say this about every ac game, but I feel like 2 & 3 nail that aspect perfectly.

I'm just gonna say that Christopher Gist was an actual person back in the day. I think this game takes place after his major expeditions, but he was one of the first Europeans to explore the Ohio County. I don't think he was very historically accurate, though.
"I don't think he was very historically accurate"

Rogue is somehow my favourite AC, I completely see the flaws but I’m ridiculously attached to it. I do completely agree that Rogue just could’ve been longer and more fleshed out from a story point. I get that Unity was the priority, but Rogue could’ve done so well with some more sequences.
I really like that one of Shay's gripes with the Assassins is that they make him wake up early. "At least we did things where and WHEN we wanted to, Liam"

Except the unexplained reuse of "Ezio's Family". That's always made me ??? It's like using superman's classic theme in a movie about Zod
@Chazz Ravenelle - Shay has his own theme, dude. ua-cam.com/video/KTvYCG69fNk/v-deo.html
What about the three combat themes? What about the naval combat theme? What about the pause menu? Loading screen? Atlantic atmosphere? I'm shaking my head at you all. :'(
I liked Shay's Templar coat I loved wearing it in unity and ac 3 remastered

Whitelight: assassin's creed rogue
Me remember adewale death: No
I love how in AC Rogue, in which you're playing as a templar, has a lot more stealth components than any other previous AC, where you played as an assassin. The fort takeover missions scattered in map are easily my favorite actives.
I beaten it 8 times and each playthrough only needed 7 hours and 33 minutes and 27 seconds.
As a massive AC fan who didn't get a PS4 until 2015, I am very glad Rogue exists.
I feel like Rogue's story is what the Star Wars prequels wanted to be.
You mean absolutely wonderful
@@muaythaik1andmmaforlife714 This is what I tell anybody who asks about Rogues story. "Imagine if the Star Wars prequels were well written."
Rogue is the 'Rogue One' of the Kenway Trilogy
@@ralph_reviews But rogue is good...
@thomas brady Gonna take a fat guess say you haven't played the game.
Righteous, the Kenway Saga's my favorite.
I liked Syndicate more.
@@unicorntomboy9736 what
@@stooly7885 I prefer AC Syndicate more than this game
@@unicorntomboy9736 what?
@@unicorntomboy9736 Yeah, how? I know you have opinions, but what?
"...the cross I would choose to bear..."
Quite literally
I just today finished Assains's Creed IV, that's good timing, and to top it off i was thinking if i should buy Rogue. Amazing video.
I haven't played BF yet but I might play it in the future, it looks fine and almighty!
Sameeeeeeeeeee
Buy it, the story is amazing and the gameplay is great too
shay is a really likeable character even though rogue isn't a main game what makes it pretty short
but I recommend it good gaem
hater wdym Rogue IS a main game. It’s just hella short af that’s all.
I don't even have notifications. How tf I catch this 20 seconds after upload lol
The trick is to be subscribed to a buttload of channels. That way you are going to be early to some video pretty much everytime you open UA-cam
You're a level 10 fan.
@@Sebbir This is the way.
Sebbir this.
I will never forget the authoritarian air the templar outfit gives you and the brutal swordfighting this game has. The feeling of you controlling a naval force and taking over locations from the french. It's a special feeling I get from this game. The character I control resonates with me. No longer did I need to hide my face with a hood , I was a templar enforcer doing what I thought was right.
Agree. Very brutal in fact.
Rogue was my first Assassin's Creed game, and if it wasn't obvious, Shay is my favourite AC protagonist.
Black flag is my first game and Edward is my favorite.
Assassin's Creed 1 is my first game and I have no idea which one is my favorite now :S
Maybe III because of Haytham.
My favorite is Altaïr
AC1 was my first back in like 09 my fav gotta be Ezio, hard to not like him.
I'm was a kid and this was the first AC game my older brothers allowed me to play at their PC so it's memorable for me too! I used to just watch them play Ezio's games.
13:19 I like the symbolic sight of Shay taking off his hood that is a trademark feature of Assassins + getting shot in the back by one of his former allies really cement his turn to the Templar side
More like cement him turning away from the Brotherhood entirely. It wasn't the Assassins betrayal that made him want to join the Templars. It was the fact that he felt that he needed to stop the Assassins before they could do more harm and needed the support and resources of the Templars to do so.
Listening to the background screaming when your running through the falling city is what did it for me. Rogue is one of my favorites.
I love how it start with you running one direction then having to go back the way u came lol
I really wish when Shay confronted Achilles he had a line along the lines of"collaterals can't be avoided" or"duty before the heart"
Or something like that, cuz I really felt the dude(Achilles) was as confused as everybody about the earthquake
i don't think Achilles was too confused as during the training memory you can hear adewale inform achilles of an earthquake
I just finshed this game yet but I relaised that one of the most underrated games ever
6 years later and we're heading back to Atlantic again!
#ACValhalla
There is a memory in Rogue's Abstergo that a guy (forgot his name, but he is important to AC) was in a animus as a viking in England during a raid, and he tried to recruit a guy to his clan
I love that you see arno and elise and you kill arnos dad. Such a great crossover
Ubisoft deserves a lot of credit IMO for Rogue. They put out a last gen game in a series at the same time a totally different next gen game came out. And they didn't half arse it. It's almost as good as Black Flag and it ties in with the next gen game's story. This was great for those of us who hadn't got a PS4/Xbox One at the time. We were still able to play a new Assassin's Creed that had time and effort put into it
Imo, they should've delayed Unity by a few months and just let this game be the main AC in the meantime
The problem with Rogue is very simple: too big for it's short story
10:13 - Lmao the 2 younger people in the scene are already recovered, up on their feet, and actively pointing and commenting on the holographic map that resulted from their little experiment with that precursor artifact, and then the camera sweeps to briefly show ole Benjamin Franklin still completely knocked on his a** hasn't even rolled over or attempted to get himself back up yet haha... This little detail made me chuckle.
Rogue is also my favorite game, love the Morrigan, and I really like the outfit choices (Colonial Raider anyone?) but I am finding some of the chests and loot seems to be un-gettable. Just finished the main story, at long last, and now trying to complete it all.
Yeah, it's absolute torture to get them all, had a good time exploring the world, but finding them gets really excruciatingly long, but it's possible!
And yes, the colonial outfit is really cool, makes me always (try) to roleplay, but I prefer one outfit just because of the sheer coolness, the master templar outfit, it's... Beautiful, after blowing all those ships up you get this gem, if you can withstand the challenges to get this one, which you probably have if you're trying to get all collectibles, then do it, I believe it's worth it.
You need like 8 hours somehow useless running around that's all but a really great game even now in 2021
What do you mean? i had no trouble on getting the chests.
@@notyourdaddude1957 I finally got to a couple holdouts that were the subject of that post.
Im gonna be real to you. I never played Rogue. I just watched the full 40 min cuz of your voice
@SaltyKJB Well you should have played Rogue. If you just played it yourself instead of watching a video on it you’d have a completely different opinion.
This game is so underrated. One of my favorite AC games.
29:38 THANK YOU . AC1 blow my mind with their philosophies . You can agree with both templars and assassisn at a point.
ive had none of these glitches in any of my play throughs xD
you must make your own luck
@@kristianthaler6525 💀
Was I the only person who also "changed" along with Shay after I heard the Templar side since all the other games they just say that the Templars bad but now you really hear it all.
Fluance_ DLX tbh this war thanks to this game shows that the war is kinda pointless to a stand point
Yes,templars 4 life ;)
It’s just too bad the game do a poor job at it. You don’t really get the Templar side, you just go with them because the Colonials Assasssin’s are a bunch of dumb ass. Not for any Templar ideals, they are barely discussed. It has little to do with Order trough Control
@@oliviawilliams6204 the colonial assassins barely could be called "assassins", they looked like a stupid murderers gang and also broke almost all assassin's principles
Almost all the games show that this fight is like a "gray field", no one is right, they want the same thing but with different ways.
What happened at 26:26 is a parkour down animation it only happens if you press the drop key (interact) while near an edge in high profile. On keyboard and mouse it's pretty easy to accidentally trigger a drop because W is movement forward which you expectedly use often but drop is the E key which is right next to W if you aren't careful you can hit it by accident easily.
"Gotta stab your hidden blade in 4 holes"
I mean trying for one is hard enough.
If I recall this game was never really marketed to any of us as a complete successor to Black Flag or anything, rather I think it was just kind of accepted it was a Black Flag reskin with a new map and better visuals, features, and content.. Being a big fan of my time with Black Flag I was actually pleasantly surprised to find Rogue so similar when I first booted her up, it was exactly what I wanted at the time which is more of what Black Flag did well but much less piratey... That's what we got, and may I mention as somewhat of an internet Illuminati conspiracy theory guy myself, I was smiling big during that scripted event when that entire town collapses around you via a triggered earthquake, and as I'm running away from this apocalypse around me eventually the ground cleaves in 2 under your feet to reveal the classic stand out black and white tiling used inside Free Masonry lodges on their main chamber floors.. Once Rogue started getting heavy on the secret society hidden knowledge and ancient messages type themes mid playthrough I was ecstatic like man if a game was ever made just for me this is it... Needless to say, I never experienced really any game breaking bugs at all and really enjoyed my entire time with this game, anyone that can nab it on a sale for anything $20 or under would be well advised to pick this title up to add to their gaming library of classics. Very very fun and cool game especially if you quickly got sick of the whole pirate theme but still loved the underlying game and mechanics going on in Black Flag.
well i just bought the Remastered a few days ago on the Xbox for $13 Sale. and honestly i would not have has a issue paying full price if i knew it was going be this good.
i Loved Black Flag, but ran out of things to do because once youve done everything all there is to do is attack ships. but here you have so much more to do out at sea, and the land areas you go to feel more alive and fleshed out. exspeccially New York being full of life and people.
that was my biggest complaint of Black flag, the world just felt.....Empty. but here in rogue its not. and im freaking glad. Rogue actually very early on won me over as my favourite over Black Flag because of those details.
I honestly would like another Templar kind of focused game.
Infamous: second son is a game that needs your type of analysis
26:15 That infamous never-ending Hope chase glitch happened to me, too. And that's not the worst part! After I failed miserably over and over again, I finally came to realize I could have just used a gun to stun her and stab. So I waited Hope to jump down from rooftop and pressed a quick shot button. Guess what? She somehow disappeared off the screen and TELEPORTED back to the place I had passed by. It was the most ridiculous yet hilarious bug I had ever encountered.
People spend a lot of time chasing hope these days
This is still my favourite assassins creed game, I wish it was longer. Hopefully they can make something similar someday or had made a appearance in unity
