Assassin's Creed: Revelations - What we want to see

CVG - We'll admit that when Ubisoft finally confirmed that Assassin's Creed: Revelations was another Ezio story (albeit his last) we were a little bit disappointed.

We'd come to terms with the fact this wasn't going to be the leap through time we'd hoped for, nor was it going to bring the brand new assassin we're more than ready for but, with all the Altair being thrown around by Ubi's strange videos, we thought we'd at least get a break from the Italian.

I hope this is the last Assassin's Creed spin off. I just want to play the finale in the main Assassin's Creed trilogy.

undercovrr4777d ago

There are probably going to be spinoffs off AC3 just like there are off AC2

BushLitter4777d ago (Edited 4777d ago )

That would make sense except for the fact that the world ends next year ;)

I wouldn't call them spin offs really..

They're more like episodes. Kind of like what Valve did with Half Life 2, eh?

Spinoffs generally feature a 'minor' character from the main franchise, and introduce a new, or at least branching storyline. Not quite the case here either.

Just innovation. Don't be like other sequels and change the graphics and tweak gameplay. I want true innovation like devs use to do with there games loooong agao.

iamnsuperman4777d ago

Agree but graphical it does need to improve. AC2 to ACB had no change. ACB looked outdated when released. Innovation, gameplay and graphics need to improve.

AngelicIceDiamond4777d ago

Yes thank you somebody who has't suffered in todays pop culture of "Sequels" Innovation is what I speak.

Eamon4777d ago

There was quite an improvement graphically between AC2 and ACB. Let me show you:

I would like to see it not be released, and Ubisoft release AC 3 next year.

AngelicIceDiamond4777d ago (Edited 4777d ago )

Is it just me? But I don't feel any sense of real excitement or urgency over this game, sorta like artificial hype and a sense of dryness? Maybe it is me

Lucreto4777d ago (Edited 4777d ago )

One thing I like about the AC2 trilogy is that we seen Ezio's birth, early adulthood, middle-age and now old age and possible death. We experienced his life throughout which has not really been done before.

I hope we jump between Altaïr and Ezio. Altaïr discovers something, then jumps to an Ezio section who finds it and has some consequences for Desmond.

When will you decommission this new one? I’m only asking so I can be happier by not buying it at full price.

The dog Chorizo from FAR CRY 6 has wheelchair legs, so is hardly a decommissioned pet. In fact very useful for digging up dirt.

Historic Eras that Video Games Need to Explore

Xfire writes "Worldbuilding is a crucial part of any story. It's not an easy task to create a believable setting with its own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations and then weave a story into the said setting. Luckily, storytellers and video game writers don't always need to create complex settings when we've got history books as thick as Big Chungus.

Historical eras make a fabulous setting for video games. They've already got the world-building nailed, complete with their own set of rules, customs, traditions and political affiliations. Honestly, I don't think I need to justify the fact that historical eras make an amazing setting for video games. If you don't believe me, just go ahead and play the Ghost of Tsushima or any of the Assassin's Creed games."

sourOG1176d ago

The first crusade would be pretty sweet. I’d probably enjoy any of those on your list if they were done respectfully. Like not some dork in Portland making a Russian Revolution game.

Benin Empire, Far East, Central America. Games are pretty biased toward Europe, North America, and the Middle East. There is a very big world out there.
