Reliving my Assassin's Creed: Revelations multiplayer era don't mind me

95% completion on unity....... why did they make the co-op missions necessary for 100% 😔

AC Valhalla is sooo buggy... I am sorry but Unity's momentary weird horror faces ... or Syndicate's flying carriages are nothing compared to this... I came across actually broken side quests in Valhalla, sometimes you fly up into space etc. and the Ubisoft connection is also soo shit, you literally cannot collect those damn opals through daily quests. And there is no excuse for this when Odyssey had most of the same features and that game wasn't really buggy at all.

I forgot to post this when i made it so while i’m on a roll, i’ll post it too

[tyhi]

does anyone remember assassins creed.. uh, i think it was ac:brotherhood? specifically the multiplayer. it was sooo cool. matchmaking (connectivity) was horrid on the ps3 but the game itself was so awesome i didnt mind sitting in the lobby waiting (while doing other stuff obviously) to get matched to play one game every ~2 hours.

it was like, everyone would be disguised, and everyone would get an assigned target i think? i guess there were different game modes but. just the simple fun of a footchase with the nice fluid ac parkour mixed in was just soooo delectable

Felassan's notes section of this post -

In this episode of the Game Informer show, Game Informer talk some more about their trip to BioWare's studio for the DA:TV cover story, when BioWare showed them hours of DA:TV content while playing it live.

Some notes from this and from what they said:

Wesley LeBlanc wasn't a huge DA fan and he went in with no expectations. The job to go to BW for this just landed on his plate due to other peoples' schedules. After seeing the game, it's probably his most anticipated game for the rest of the year and the one he's most looking forwards to

The game really wowed him and stuck with him, he said he is thrilled about it and is engrossed in the fantasy it's bringing

The visuals and world finally feel like what BioWare has maybe always wanted to make

This is the game where the team said, yeah, we feel fully in command of the Frostbite engine, and it shows

The world is more like Fable-type whimsy than prior DA games. It has a high fantasy feel

BW want new people to play the game. They're very aware that it's been 10 years since the last game and the game does a good job of catching people up

Rook as the PC really has no idea what's going on with Solas and all the other lore-specific stuff that's happening in the game, so they kind of act as the stand-in for newer players or people who have not caught up on the lore

But it's not just a game for newcomers, there is still a lot to chew on in the game for hardcore DA fans. BioWare were saying that they know their community, what it wants and what it's looking for out of these characters

Wesley enjoyed the music, visual design, and voice acting

Nothing that they saw about the game stood out as worrisome to him

Wesley has quite a lot of further stories to add to Game Informer's DA:TV hub

Wesley: "On the topic of the [Dragon Age] fanbase, I just wanna give a shoutout to that community, because, wow, I did not, I knew people would be stoked about this cover, but people are really stoked about this cover. And it’s really funny, the day that we announced it, I got like hundreds of new followers. Anytime, if I tweet about Erdtree or Destiny 2, I get like my normal amount of likes, like, a dozen maybe, y’know, whatever. If I tweet about Dragon Age, it’s like. Today I tweeted, ‘my next feature is coming at 3pm’ and it’s at 1000 likes, it’s so funny, like, this community is like rabid for information, which makes sense if you haven’t gotten a game in 10 years. But yeah, so like, shoutout to y’all, I’m loving you guys reading the articles and telling me what you wanna hear about. So if you have any questions or anything, get at me on Twitter for sure, and I will see what I can cook up with some writing for you. But yeah, shoutout to the BioWare community, y’all crazy.”

Streamer Jayce definitely seems like a LOL player who’d heavily grinds the game, and would *know* the lore extensively, even better than the devs/writers themselves. And in a world where LOL is the exact same, even with game Viktor and Jayce remaining unchanged, streamer Jayce would also definitely make jokes about himself and modern Viktor related to those game characters

oooh I've sorta been imagining a slightly separate AU where the streamer AU is still modern, but reader and the gang blow up before League of Legends was released their characters and bases the visuals off of them. Jayce and the Machine Herald were both introduced in like 2011/2012, so the slightly less modern streamer AU would take place circa late 00s early 2010s which is silly because that's such a different landscape.

You start out on Youtube, playing the original Minecraft, Sims 1 and 2, Bioshock, the old Resident Evil games and Silent Hill, Jayce playing WoW and LoL, the old Zelda games, Halo, and Assassins Creed. Your aesthetic looks quite different, pink and black foam sound mufflers decorating the back of your space, pink glass beads covering the door behind you, a fluffy pink rug on your floor, PlayBoy throw pillows next to your cheetah print stuffed animals on your hot pink velveteen bed. Don't even get me started on your closet. Juicy tracksuits galore, so many roll over leggings and matching tube tops, sparkly halter tops, low rise jeans, gold and silver hoops, a collection of belly button rings, and so many Chanel heels. You also definitely had one of those bedazzled BlackBerry's.

Viktor is more present in this AU, you both having a separate series on the channel called Multiplayer Monday where you and him film videos playing together. I wouldn't say he fits into the emo-boy look. Think less Rodrick Heffley and more season 1 Spencer Reid with less greasy looking hair. Lots of sweaters, lots of button ups and academic prints like argyle or plaid, lots of beat-up converse, old messenger bags, and comfy oversized jackets. He's still just as sassy, but he really does get into the games. I see his day job being something like an early day's computer scientist who really gets into the craft that goes into coding a game.

You and Jayce only really blow up because shipping culture used to be even more insane than it is now and everyone couldn't wait to see you two together, never mind the very real boyfriend you had. You and Vik still get a lot of attention, but shipping wars definitely break out over who you're going to "end up with". There are so many, fanfics don't get me started. You know how 1D started the "I Got Kidnapped By..." trope, you three definitely started some freaky shit in fanfic spaces. In fact, you really originated Fuck or Die fics, specifically a smutty twist on the Hanahaki disease trope where you have to fuck to prove that you love one of them so they won't die and prove which side of the shipping war was right once and for all. Also, so many Youtube edits of you and Vik to Kesha's, Your Love is My Drug.

Despite not being the greatest at the games he played, Jayce's deep love for the lore eventually got him noticed by Riot, who invite him, you, and Viktor to one of their events and plan a partnership with you three, which is how Jayce and the Machine Herald get introduced into the game. You also get a character, but we all know how well adding female characters to male dominated gaming spaces goes. It would be a completely terrible mischaracterization of who you are and what your channel stands for, your tits would be huge and popping out of your outfit, your waist would be the size of your head, your weapon would be some sort of Cupid's arrow gimmick, and the character would eventually be retired and a piece of lost LoL history. You get a few references made to your character on Valentines Day, though!!

Viktor is more pissed about it than you are, and out of spite, he remodels your character and makes a little platform game for her as a present to you on Valentines Day. It's a really cute small release where you battle a bunch of magical creatures on your adventure to find the Ring of Happiness. While you usually take the wheel when it comes to more creative endeavors like character and world design and story board creation, it's still a very cute game. When you beat the game, you do also receive your own real-life Ring of Happiness.

Besides the little hiccups, Jayce and Viktor think it's very cool to be in a video game. Jayce is definitely the type to main his own character no matter what while Viktor likes a little more variety. The cosplays would also go insane!!! Does Jayce lose his fingerprints with the ungodly number of times he burned himself trying to hot glue his hammer together? Well, yes!!! Does Viktor nearly dye himself with the black body paint he uses? Yes!!! You cosplayed Viktor's version and are the only one who comes out unscathed. From that point on, you leave the cosplaying to the fans and stick to playing the games.

ps. sorry for the lack of my big headcanons. tumblr hates me and wont save my drafts so i literally have no way of writing and posting them :(

an excuse to meme his arms? yes

Headcanon: The Moon Boys and Video Games:

Steven generally prefers cozy games or life sim games. Stardew, Animal Crossing, The Sims (he goes out of his way to have ALL of them), Slime Rancher,etc, but when Layla's around he also likes to play games like Overcooked! That are still that lighthearted type game, but with the added competition. Every once in a while he ventures out of this genre if one really catches his eye. (Assassin's Creed Origins im talking about Assassin's Creed Origins it's too perfect I mean come on). He has no real console preference. Him and Layla have a Co-Op on Stardew that's currently on Day 10 of Winter of Year 5. They have not yet unlocked Ginger island because Steven has been very focused on the Musuem. And they finished the community center in two days.

Marc probably seems like he only plays dark bruding violent type games - which,okay, a part of me wants to say he'd enjoy the fallout games - he also is really into science fiction games. No Man's Sky and Astroneer are personal favorites. He's also partial to Tomb Raider and the like. He prefers PC or Play Station. He has yet to get The Last Of Us Volume Two because he had it spoiled. He also enjoys the Horizon games. When it comes to games with Layla, he normally just joins her in the multiplayer of whatever he's currently playing that has one.

With Jake, I feel like he's really into racing games. Like. Really into racing games. I know, it's cliche, 'New York Cabbie is into racing games' but it just..makes sense.. I dunno. Maybe it's the theory that Jake was fronting at some of the points in Austria (including the cupcake truck turning around)..which Im not quite sure I subscribe to yet, but I do agree with a lot of the points, or just the fact that I like the idea of Jake being an absolute chaotic speed demon. He also bought himself one of the GTA's.. entirely just for the driving aspect..he also sometimes plays Orgins after Steven bought it. He favors handhelds and consoles (for obvious reasons.)

I also think all three of them sometimes play Stevens 'Cozy' games. The Sims and Stardew Especially.

It's 4:00 AM and I literally woke up randomly thinking about this and couldn't fall back asleep because I needed to get it out you have to deal with it now. (can you tell I've been playing video games a lot in the aftermath of all the stress of the holidays?)

Boo! Jumpscare!

Jk

Minecraft x Assassin’s Creed

(Chatty Birds AU)

Okay, hear me out on this: Desmond gets isekai’d into Minecraft a la Isu bullshit, but he’s technically not alone. Because every single protagonist of the games is along for the ride as his Chat, either as voices in his head, literal birds, or bleeding effect but real this time.

Imagine this poor poor man, learning how to survive in this fuck-ass game world where dying ain’t permanent and tutorials don’t exist so they leave you scrambling for answers. Even better, he’s in a solo survival world, with all the recent updates. All with ancient Assassins and Templars screaming in his ear. When he finally figures out the dragon endgame bullshit, somehow, he jumps through the portal and is met with, get this, multiplayer.

Welcome to the hub motherfucker, y’ain’t the only player here bucko.

Or, if y’all really want a crossover, dump him in with your favorite Minecraft series, no explanation. Let him mingle with your favorite Minecraft people, go have fun. Give this traumatized man some found family bullshit if you so desire.

Dump all the lore y’all want! Gods, Watchers, Hybrids, Demons, Lore magic, etc. whatever works for you, bud.

Aight, I’m out! Go write or whatever 🫡
