Interview: Ubisoft on AC3's first DLC, The Tyranny of King Washington

CVG - We sat down with Tyranny of King Washington creative director Marc-Alexis Côté to talk about the new Assassin's Creed 3 DLC, what inspired it, and how the new Connor is able to turn invisible. The DLC will be released in three parts - The Infamy, The Betrayal, and The Deception - the first of which goes on sale on February 19. It's set in an alternate reality in which George Washington rules America as a mad, tyrannical king after the Revolution.

I love AC games which i'm sure most of you know that have been here on N4g awhile. I'm not ok with where there taking this DLC and it's not because it's america. I wouldn't of been happy if they had a different reality with ezio. I want them to add or progress the overall story. This really just seems retarded. Ubisoft says "history is are playground" but this looks alittle off key. I buy anything AC from toys,comics,books but i will not buy this DLC. Progress or add to the story not whatever this is.

"This version, the mad king, is a transformation of Washington's personality by the Apple of Eden ... If that doesn't make sense, it'll become clear when you reach the end of the DLC."

At first I wasn't happy with the "alternate reality" setting, but if it makes sense, I'll give it a look.

Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.

Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩

How did redfall not make the cut.

My first thought was the safe rooms in the resident evil series. When you hear that enchanting music you know you’re safe.

I literally just came here to post this. That music in the Resi 1 safe rooms is playing in my head.

Rimeskeem298d ago

I was thinking TLOU work benches. Although I remember one time where it was a false security.

Perfect. 👌👌

I'd add the top of my highrise apartment in GTA Online. That calm, quiet peace, just knowing as soon as I step out that door I will be bombarded by 8 and 12 year olds calling each other n**** and f****, trolled by combat jets and rocket launchers.

The entire map of SotC is peaceful as hell. Used to just ride around exploring it.

mastershredder298d ago (Edited 298d ago )

Afterlife in Cyberpunk 2077 is a peaceful area? Erm, hands down and very hard to miss, Misty Olszewski's Esoterica is the absolute epitome of peaceful areas in that game.

raiden_188298d ago

The "last of us" deer location i found to be a welcoming respite. It was nice to not have someone trying to eat me.

RPGer297d ago

Kingdom Hearts tend to present half peaceful areas and most of them are amazing.

Ten years later, we miss the old you, Assassin's Creed.

Popsicle572d ago (Edited 572d ago )

I really enjoyed Assassins Creed 3. My only complaint was that I didn’t enjoy when I had to switch from Connor to Desmond. It’s a personal preference, but Connor’s story was just more fun for me.

On a side note, Black flag was the most enjoyable of the AC games I played.
