Could've had a badass plot about four French bros kicking ass Three-Musketeers-style in revolutionary France

Plot in this game really is atrocious. Whole game you fight like a good goy for corrupt and against any ideal of liberty or equality.
You can have any opinion about Terror, but in no way Ancien Regime or Directory were better.
And those fucking hipsters:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incroyables_and_Merveilleuses

To add on this, they wasted two fucking settings on two rushed shit games. French Revolution and Victorian England, all fucking wasted to the point that they stopped the annual shit and went back to WE WUZ KANGZ on Origins where it's a game that did not reveal anything significant.

You don't have to admit to being an utter philistine, user.

I had to put settings on very low to run it at the time. Famously broken release and all that.

The Ancien Régime was better, user.
Louis XIV and XV simply set up the shitty situation.

I know it's trendy to be against any ideals of freedom in current year, but no. Privileges for the clergy and the nobility without any merit are not, in any shape or form, good.
Also Unity portrays the Revolution in a simply cartoonish manner. All you need to know in that in the mission that takes place during Louis XVI's execution, the revolutionary's speech is acted like Snidely fucking Whiplash and the king is all cute, high-pitched candor saying he dindu nuffin. It's insulting whether you are a royalist or not.

Louis XVI was incompetent.
He had good ideas, but didn't have the strength of conviction to stick with anything. Objectively, he was a weak king.
But I'd sooner have Louis "Can't Make Up His Mind" XVI than the fucking Directory or National Assembly.
Napoleon wasn't that bad. King in everything but name.

I mean think about it every war France has ever been in they have got utterly fucking murdered.

...

Robespierre did nothing wrong though. Except when he didn't purge moderates fast enough.

...

I always had some form of admiration for Napoleon, but again, he's portrayed as such a straight-up hero in Unity it's ridiculous. The DLC addressed his ruthlessness, but then again it was by ubi Montpellier rather than the cucks at Montreal.

Knock yourself out, my dude.

Maybe we're making the mistake of seeking historical clarity from a video game, let alone one published by Ubisoft.

You forgot a big one:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_invasion_of_Russia

Historically, the French have won more wars than any other nation and lost less than any other nation.

But user, history doesn't exist before WWI.
:^)

...

Don't you have some kebabs to sell somebody, Hans?
I only ask because Mohammad wants some, he's getting antsy again.

For a second I thought I was getting memed on by >>>/strek/

True, I do not expect high historical accuracy from asscreed, but at the very least the series is normally freedom=good, tyrants=bad. Unity is such a 180° from that it's frankly hard to believe. All the revolutionaries are Templar mooks. All of them. There's a mission in a ruined palace showing the sad ghosts of dead nobles with a fucking violin. It's like the game was written by Stéphane Bern.

the french were never good and the britcucks were better in every single way.

Nah, he was a Corsican who got so angry about Italy selling his island to France that he took over the country and conquered Europe several times.

By that logic, all the Founding Fathers were british.

the brits were always better, even before burgerland

also guess the battle lads

Corsica was culturally distinct from Italy and France just as America was culturally distinct from the British. But yeah, there were some Brits and Frenchmen among them

No it couldn't have. It's an ubisoft game.

SIDEKICK

no need to guess it's the battle of agincourt

...

Get your gook faggot shit out of here.

Are you implying they weren't, user?

fuck off.

Go back to /trannypol/.

Could be worse.

AssCreed never had good gameplay. Never. Platforming and general movement is nearly completely automated, combat transcends simplistic and enters the realm of mechanics a lobotomized paraplegic could master in under five minutes, the narratives are always fucking trash (the latest installments going from mere leftist propaganda to Steven Universe tier idiocy) and the open world is pointless because there is fuckall to do in it. Kudos to whoever makes the maps for the games over at Ubisoft since the poor bastard has to watch the women and diversity hires shit on all the effort he put into making them.

Just because the revolutionaries espoused a few popular ideas doesn't mean they weren't Jewish puppets. And we all know how their commitment to freedom ended up.

Reminds me of the ending of AssCreed 3.
I didn't care about the ending and I pirated all the games, but fuck that ending.

it never stood a chance.

I can't quite think of any other narrative continuity that has writing as abysmally bad as AssCreed. I guess current year +2 Marvel might come close, but even they have a glimmer of characters acting like normal humans from time to time. Let's not forget how the writers are so lazy the only variable that determines whether a character is good or evil is how much they like him or how much said character aligns with their own political views. It's pathetic that leftists are such emotionally immature mental cripples they consistently fail to see the problem with an ideology that kvetches about "absolute freedom". How the fuck is someone not supposed to view the Assassins as every terrorist organization ever?

Considering they basically fucked up characters regardless of nationality, culminating into the clusterfuck Syndicate was, it's not like I was expecting them to do any worse.

But user, merit didn't enter the equation afterwards either – the world is stuffed with incompetent politicians and higher positions are more often than not gained through nepotism. Even in its idealistic core, democracy is set up as a popularity contest, not a contest of governorship. Abolishing nobility simply removed the few remaining checks on the power of the rich and provided room for mass politics. Almost all of societal problems we face today can be traced back to the French revolution.

Kill yourself and join them.

D'artagnan is a main character, he fights just as much as the Musketeers

kill yourself dude

Wow its like I'm on cuckchan KEK!

Thanks this is the experience I have been looking for!

Keep making great posts fellow channers!

Just look at this fucking pleb.

Rogue went completely under the radar, compared to how much better it was than Unity. It was 4, but as privateer templars in the snow and woodlands, and it halved the upgrade grind. The characters, story and pacing were better than Black Flag and miles ahead of Unity. It's worth picking up second hand for a few bucks, if more sailing and more Haytham is what you want.

Commie shitstain spotted

I wish someone would copy the ship combat and the parkour of AssCreed and make a proper pirate game out of it, with trading, spooky shit, quests, unique crew members you can recruit, etc. All the elements are there, all it takes is a talented developer that won't fuck up and can redesign the combat from the ground up.

You really have no idea what are you talking about, bootlicker. I guess if only alternative to pseudo-socialism are feodalism, then yeah, go for it. But we still have liberalism, you know, bipolar piece of shit.

No, there was a tranny character in Unity too. He'd give out side missions. It's actually based on a real socialite, spy, and master swordsman who would dress up and duel people. No one talks about him because he has a smaller role in Unity.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevalier_d'Éon

The real crime is not that there's some faggy drag queen, but that you can't stab him in the face.

>(((toxic)))

That's not exactly how it went, though that would've been better. Taken from the wiki.

I unironically think that some of the lore in AssCreed is pretty good and it's a shame that it's bogged down in this ridiculous Animus bullshit. It could've been a rather creative story.

I also like how it connected to Unity with the final mission having you assassinate the protagonist's father.

Yay

So does Robin, doesn't stop him from being Batman's bitchboy

Fucking hire me, Ubisoft.

Black Flag had a reverse trap.

...

I dont think hes a bad protagonist better than Unity and Syndicate but

People always shit all over Conner but I think he was actually a good character he acted like a native american Naive and full of rage. The deleted prologue really redeems him if only it was actually in the fucking game

Templars in Assassins Creed were always butt hurt at the French and it was the one of the few times the Assassins managed to perform a Templar purge. So as a result the Assassins essentially acted like Templars since they controlled the French leaders

He’s an alright main assassin but your right about Aya they made her unbearable

…but since Désilets left, and up until AC Origins (I haven't played it and I'm not interested) it was: "historical people that the writers don't like = templars".

I honestly prefer the Kenway storyline to Ezio's. I wish that we got a game about Haytham instead of Shay (though I like his character) to fill in the gap between Edward and Connor. Assassin's Creed III also could have easily been the best AssCreed and even a good game period if there were just a few adjustments.

tbh the world would be much better if every team member deepthroated a shotgun at this point.

Every fucking time, EVERY FUCKING TIME

THIS FUKING MEME NEEDS TO DIE WITH ALL OF YOU FAGGOTS SPREADING IT

I'll take a system that is fair on paper and fucked up in execution than one that is an assfuck from the word go and only gets worse from there.

Enjoy you and your family being raped, tortured and murdered (and possibly eaten) by the mongrel hordes while you clutch your copy of the constitution and wave the red white and blue dishrag.

It's working better than anyone else's system so far.

I’ll be clutching the whole constitution, but I only really need the second amendment.

I miss when this board wasn't populated by absolute fucking retards.

smh tbh fam

The naval combat was just about the only good thing to come out of the Assassin's Creed series. Sorry you don't have the requisite taste to see that.

Also, is this seriously a legit Asscreed thread?
This series was never good.
This is what happens when you let the Siege shit eating faggots have a containmment thread.

Nigger I can't be asked to keep up with which asscreed has which characters.

While I agree with you that a compelling argument could be made that asscreed was never good, it's more important to note that if you're a proponent of freedom of speech - and you fucking should be, that was one of the major reasons for the first exodus - you should understand that said freedom will allow anyone to speak about anything they like without fear of consequences.

You start a precedent of shutting down discussions, it won't be long before more and more topics hit the chopping block, and you've got yourself yet another authoritarian hivemind hugbox echochamber. You don't want that, do you?

...

No, he's got a point. We have three mobile shit threads up at any given time.

I hate natbols more than I do ancaps, but not as much as liberals.

That means I'm free to shit up threads as well.
Stop pretending this board doesn't have quality control and that Mark isn't a picky biased kike.

He literally fucking banned all the Haydee threads as anons were actually talking about the game instead of muh thicc and allows fucking gachashit gambling that barely qualifies as vidya, likely because he enjoys that garbage as well.
But hey, its not anti consumer if its Japanese right?

Depends on what you mean by, "shit up threads." If someone considers your opinion to be disruptive, no matter how shitty it is, well then they're misguided. If you spam the thread with pointless bullshit, then you're not expressing an opinion and are instead being useless. There's a difference between being able to express a well thought out (but disliked) opinion, and being a dipshit.
The board does have some manner of quality control in the form of moderation. We can submit reports for what is otherwise considered a shit post/shit thread, but you're suggesting that it's within our interest to discourage people from talking about video games just because you perceive them to be somehow unworthy for discussion. That's retarded.
Well, when you have a point, you have a point. I don't know about any of this shit, I never paid any attention to those threads. If what you're saying is true, then yeah, Mark is in the wrong. However, bitching about it to anyone that isn't Mark himself won't do much to make meaningful change, and being a passive aggressive faggot in a thread that has nothing to do with your grievances is gay.

None of that matters because Ubisoft is an SJW company pushing for commie propaganda while being directly subsided by Trudeau to produce broken lazily designed games and Asscreed is an awful series that should have never gone past the first game that was decent for the time.

TL;DR
Asscreed threads besides the ones made when a new one is released belong in the trash
In this case, cuckchan

The parkour wouldn't be that bad if you couldn't climb literally everything. A bit more toned down, Prince of Persia tier, would make it somewhat enjoyable. It blended well with the naval stuff in my opinion.
If the combat was challenging the game would become great.

Not him, but moderation cannot be only top-down, especially on imageboards. Forums are a prime example of shit like this metastasizing. Board culture exists for a reason, and if the users don't enforce ==STANDARDS== then quality of discussion falls down a steep slope. Since you're an ACfag I don't need to describe to you how 'everything is permitted' is a shitty ideology, right? Your shite games have been doing it for who knows how long.

True
These are compelling arguments
This is more rooted in opinion, but you can make a strong argument for this statement.
No. Fuck you. If an user wants to discuss asscreed, he should be free to do so. This is a board about discussing VIDEO GAMES, not "games that the consensus deems acceptable."

So you consider the act of suppressing valid discussion on an imageboard to be equal to preserving some unspoken set of standards? That's retarded. You want people to meet a standard? You must first specify and create those standards. Where in the rules does it say that, "only games that are approved by consensus can be discussed here"? Nowhere, and that is a retarded sentiment to try and champion.
That's only half of the slogan. It goes something like, "Nothing is true; everything is permitted" which is trying to imply that societal boundaries should always be tested or questioned. If you don't believe that, then is it fair to say that you just want some authoritarian cock up your ass? You want to be a good little conformist?

Lutk for at least 10 years before posting you newfaggot.

And thus you'll have threads only talking about the latest popular release or big releases because the majority of people are inbred fucktards with no taste and get something akin to cuckchan.
Modern AAA is garbage, viral marketers will promote any kind of discussion on games as long as its not directly negative, the Boston Salt Party happened.

Thats great idealism there, but it doesn't work, and if you go into any Blizzard or Gachashit thread you'll understand why immediately.

Why don't you try and start up a Clash of Clans thread, see how far that sentiment leads you? Like it or not, people have standards, and over the past 11 years AC has shown itself to be a bottom-of-the-barrel franchise from both a gameplay no crouch or jump button and a storyline chariot of the gods ripoff perspective.
So you admit that even Ubi games have more sophistication of thought than you? Go watch the AC Unity ending (which is more your speed) and then fuck off permanently from this board. The rest of your post is 10-yr-old tier bait.

He wouldn't have got it otherwise.

You don't seem to have that much faith in the people with whom you share this board. I understand what you're saying, but it's absurd to conclude that the freedom to discuss any given game is going to somehow magically reduce the personal standards of the denizens of this board. Maybe the average dipshit isn't as discerning as you'd like them to be, but that doesn't mean that most people don't have any standards whatsoever. It's more likely that people tend to have different standards than yourself, and that open and thorough discussion of any given topic is how those standards change, as it is also true that most people's minds are malleable enough that a solid and reasonable argument can sway them.

Sounds like you're just parroting what 3c0e7d is saying.

It wasn't good combat, ship customization, crew mechanics, muh hp mechanic, everything about it was bad but it was well animated to please faggots like you that are basically children clapping their hands looking at their screens. There aren't a lot of pirate vidyagems, but they do exist. Kill yourself for spreading that shit tier meme.

To emphasize my point, I want to use this thread as an example of what I'm saying. This thread was presumably created by an user who is unsatisfied with the state of the asscreed series. He lists his complaints in the OP, and if you look at some of the responses:

you'll see that a great majority of people in this thread are expressing their distaste for the series purely on its own merits alone, and lamenting the lost potential the series once had. Granted, not all the responses are in accordance with one another, but that just goes to show that a vibrant and nuanced opinion can be derived from observing a number of different perspectives that are all rooted in the same conclusion.

Now, if you're a cocksucking Ubisoft fantard who jizzes his pants every time a new asscreed game is released, and you read this thread, one of two things will happen - either you'll examine some of the responses here and contrast them with your own experience, or you'll just label the whole thread as some type of "hatespeech" and ignore it all. Presuming you're in the former category, you will be in a position whereby you may actually stand to learn something about the shit that you mindlessly swallow, and that process couldn't happen if this thread wasn't allowed to exist in the first place. That's all I'm really saying.

To add something to what you said, you sometimes need someone to play shitty games in order to tell you exactly why they are shit, what parts are shit, and what parts aren't as shit, it's what reviewers were supposed to do. I recently played the asscreed games in order to form my own opinions on the combat, the story, the mechanics, the settings and not just parrot other anons, sure anyone can post the wiki link about how Tesla killed Edison with an electric gun, or how the Templars created capitalism while the Assassins created communism, but that just shows how leftists the creators are, and how shit the backstory is, but that says nothing on the gameplay or the individual stories of Altair, Ezio or Connor. Also pic related, is a famous example of someone who played DOOM and thoroughly reviewed it. Would it have been screencaped if it was just a one posts with the message "it's shit"? I'd say no.

After reaching Black Flag I can say that the games are shit, but AC3 wasn't as bad as other people claimed it to be, though I played it long after most of it's bugs were fixed, and it's not a good game, but I think it had the most potential and it did some good things, that were forgotten about in Black Flag.

Nice meme. Those threads were incredibly blatant attempts to shill the game, and relied on faggots flocking to it and posting THICC THICC and other Ebonics to keep it on the front page.

Nobody in the DAILY threads actually talked about the game, other than a few token "m-muh puzzles were okay" posts. It was just nonstop posting of the same niggerbot pictures and retarded niggerlike statements.

It's a case where proper action was taken against shills.

The settings and some characters and their stories are probably the best aspect of the series. The gameplay gets boring and too easy. I was burned off by it to even play AC4 even though people say it was good. I didn't even enjoy the pirating and ship play in the game, but did like simply sailing and listening to your crew sing shanties. I just saw my brother play the game and did kinda like some of the stories. Those deep moments with the characters did have an impact, I was even surprised at how poignant the ending was, even touched me a bit.

The people in charge of the settings, world design and all really do put their heart into it. It's a shame it is all wasted on average gameplay and other ubisoft fuckery.

...

Were you always this retarded or did it take a while to surface?

What the fuck did any other ones do to deserve any kind of fandom?

At least the map is the best one in the series.
