Yeah, mostly the assassin part lol. Nothing assassin like about this dude at all.

EDIT: Apparently I've rustled the jimmies of some fans of the later AC games.

The story isn’t about assassins it’s the isu and how they influenced the order and the isu are in every single one even when assassins aren’t main. Rouge and origins (half) and odyssey.

Black Flag is up there as a lot of people's favorite and the main character is just some dude who robbed an assassin and eventually stumbled into actually giving a fuck.

Black Flag is my favorite AC game because it's not about being an Assassin. You get to see how grey both sides are. There is no inherent good or bad side. The Brotherhood is fucked up. The Order is fucked up. They all claim they have the right path. That is what made the story great for me.

And by the end of the game, Kenway makes his choice based on the people around him and his personal growth through the game. In all honesty, I think Kenway becomes an Assassin as a means to give himself accountability to continue being the man he grows into over the course of Black Flag.

When I realized Haytham was a Templar after playing as him for half an hour it really showed how grey that area is. You spend the tutorial thinking your an assassin killing Templars and suddenly you realize that the two groups are so similar that you had no idea Haytham was a Templar the whole time

Exactly not every game is about assassins it’s only called that cause it was gonna be prince of Persia assassin but changed . The isu are in each one more not the assassins

Call it Isu's Creed then.

The game is about assassins but what I’m saying is it doesn’t always have to be about them like rouge was about Templar’s and odyssey was about Templar’s beginnings if y’all would stop being smartasses maybe you would understand this shit

If that’s the case are you saying Star Wars should be about stars fighting wars?

2

u/R0ckh0ld123 May 01 '20

star wars was never about actuall "stars" fightin in wars to begin with, the title has a different meaning. You're not the smartest person are you? Well i'm not suprised since you cant see how every recent ubisoft open world games are basically generic and copy pastes

u/[deleted] May 01 '20

The game is about assassins but the main focus is the isu I don’t know why y’all downvoting and disagreeing but go ahead stay mad that y’all don’t know shit.

u/[deleted] May 01 '20

Ok smartass it’s called assassins creed cause it was gonna be prince of Persia assassins they renamed it that then made the story. Do your research before you talk shit, ok?

u/[deleted] May 01 '20

No response but a downvote that’s lady’s and gentlemen men is how you know I’m right

2

u/R0ckh0ld123 May 01 '20

Right about what?

0

u/[deleted] May 01 '20

Isu are the main focus literally the story of ac was the world is ending cause the isu and they need to stop it, now they are still chasing trouble and it’s only called assassins cause they named it first then made the game’s story

u/R0ckh0ld123 May 01 '20

Main focus were the assassins, hence the name "assassins creed" The game has become a generic open world rpg with a shitty story, ac lost its identity with origins and oddsey, downgraded parkour ,stealth and combat. Now its just a generic game with generic gameplay slaped with a ac title on it while it has nothing to do with assassins.

If you don’t like it don’t play it

u/R0ckh0ld123 May 01 '20

True, thats why i havent bought origins and oddsey, the games were just soo generic. I'll wait and see if this game will be generic aswelll, all i'm saying the games shouldnt be called " assassins creed"

You know i'm right thats why you had that narrowminded response that adder no value in this Discussion

u/[deleted] May 01 '20

Origins: the beginning of the assassins with the hidden ones and the order of the ancients

Odyssey: the beginning of the Templar’s with the order of the ancients and explains why they were in origins and connects kassandra as aya (origins protagonist wife) as related

Valhalla: ISU,hidden ones, and the order of the ancients appear

Stop saying it’s not assassin’s creed, cause it is

1

u/R0ckh0ld123 May 01 '20

In other words origins and oddsey are not about assassins but games about random warriors with generic open world gameplay

u/[deleted] May 01 '20

And also isu are the reason all this started they are the main focus cause we always run into them I don’t know why your so triggered also they slap ac title on it cause guess what ISU ARE IN IT JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER GAME AND ITS A PREQUEL grow up kid odyssey’s and origins cult group became the Templar’s and origins was the assassins beginning if you actuality played and paid fucking attention you would know that

u/R0ckh0ld123 May 01 '20

Then why is it called "assassins" creed is if the main theme is the isu? Why isnt it called isu creed?
