I watched it. It looks like the average Ubusoft turd. Bonus points for the male/female choice being completely cosmetic (the SJW/Ubisoft/Canadian idea of gender equality) and for the classic "wolves attack you on the road and take you off the horse" and "everyone in the middle ages used to shoot flaming arrows at night" moments.

Checks in to see if there's any worthwhile information - no, it's just the same opinionated circle-jerk from the people who claimed AC2 was "immersive and historically accurate".

The game with the line, and I quote verbatim: "It's-a-me! Mario!".

You're like hysterical headless chickens having a seizure. How about, when you evidently don't know shit about what you're talking about, you just don't post.

I mean look at this drivel:

No shit, it's fantasy. It's FANTASY. Do you need a french translation?

Or this:

They've just changed the original blueprint from AC2 to Origins now.

Now? No, Odyssey was also based on the *rebooted* series, i.e. Origins. The garbo AC2 "blueprint" is dead and has been for more than half a decade.

Allright, keep posting your opinions and wishful thoughts, apes.

Well then all that talk year in year out about historical authenticity is bullshit. Nobody expects realism, ffs.
Mario line was an easter egg.

The way I would formulate this is let them play their fantasies all they want but dont butcher the historical ground the game is based in.
So we dont get another Genderfield V situation if they push it too far.

This just looks like a boring ass game. It looks safe, unexciting, and doesn't bring anything new to the table that previous games didn't have. There might be some tweeks here and there, but overall, it's just following the same old uninspired formula from the same franchise, and even beyond. It's basically just a reskin.

Yeah, I totally forgot to mention that - the anglo-saxons are as black as the greeks from Odyssey. I wonder if they will keep them like that in the final version.

The voice actress for the female protagonist is absolutely horrible, holy shit.

They are trying to portray her as some kind of brutish badass woman, but it fails miserably.

If there's something devs should copy from Bioware, is FemShep.

I never claimed AC2 was historically accurate, fuckwit. If it will get you any more butthurt I will though :lol:

Right dumbfuck, that's why you wrote "middle-ages", because that's not a historical era. Fuck you and your incessant whining.

These aren't awesome games, AC2 is trash-du-la-trash, and Odyssey is ok-ish, but the *whining*, the incessant autistic *whining*. Do you ever read what you write?

Fucking french faggot.

Well, yes. Only absolute driveling retards ever thought AC2 had any historical accuracy.

Excellent, because you aren't getting any in a fantasy game where you fight the pope mano a mano with magical artifacts in the Vatican.

Mario line was an easter egg.

Easter eggs are something you find by accident in an obscure place - this was part of the main quest line and certainly not an easter egg.

No, it was just one of many pop-culture references in that dumbshit game.

The way I would formulate this is let them play their fantasies all they want but dont butcher the historical ground the game is based in.

That's been done since day 1 of the first AC game and hasn't stopped since. The historical background of every single AC game is bullshit-extraordinaire.

Creed is my one weakness..it's poppamole ..but I like it
I don't mind the monsters and I get it's not historically accurate but..

I hope to God this was really early footage because it looks utter shit.
Character models are a major step down from Origins or Odyssey
Voice acting is easily the worst I've seen in a Creed game..I wasn't over impressed with King Alfreds voice acting in the trailers either.
I also get the feeling the writing has been sourced to people who don't give a shit..possibly with agenda and will add any old crap from whatever TV show they've just watched.
Animations seem simpler and more arcadey than previous as well
Black Vikings and Saxons ? really ? it was taking the piss in Odyssey but here it's just absurd.
It didn't really look like the English countryside either.
+ Female Eivor..would not bang

How hard was it for your brain to come up with such a creative and original opinion that has never graced the internet like this? Do tell, so I can take notes and flush it down the toilet.

Well, he is right though. You are a retard. I would have rated you too, if I was reading your posts.
