racist gamer man: I’m not racist I just care about historical accuracy in Assassin’s Creed being preserved. I just want realism!!

the second ever Assassin’s Creed game over 15 years ago:

soft-spoken yet strong fighter with long hair from a foreign land finds an unexpected collaboration with sassy and impulsive lady who is searching for answers?

fuck it, close enough. welcome back Jill Valentine and Carlos Oliveira

one of the best things assassin’s creed does is never sacrifice stunning looks for practicality. yes the robes are pure white and will become impossibly blood-stained. yes they have easily-seen accessory capes in bright blue and scarlet. yes sometimes their tits are out and unprotected. yes sometimes the secret order’s insignia is embroidered right onto their clothes. it’s called fashion

Assassins Creed Rogue is one of those pieces of media that is objectively fine but subjectively you couldn't pry it from my cold dead fingers. Yes it's a monument to squandered potential, and, if given the appropriate budget and development time, could have been a masterpiece and a highlight of the series, critically and otherwise. But Ubisoft are little cunts. But also I will fight you off with a stick.

Just wanted to show some support for Ubisoft’s workers striking out in France right now from October 15 to October 17

Ubisoft generally has a really poor track record of treating their workers badly, impossible crunch times and schedules (especially with AC’s long running model of yearly releases that have affected the final quality of their games), and other issues with massive layoffs and payment issues and now mandating less opportunities to work from home.

I’m not going to be in the game’s industry, but I’ve seen a lot of similar issues happening with animation (the field I’m in) and the poor treatment of artists across these studios so… yeah. I understand.

Don’t buy anything from Ubisoft during this time, and support the artists and developers behind these games instead of the CEO’s that mistreat them.

At the end of the day I think Assassin’s Creed is about people. It’s about the quirks of people, the questions we ask ourselves, the choices we make. Stories about great people that could never be told, heroes no one will ever learn about, sacrifices no one will ever know to be thankful for. Men and women, killing and dying, making mistakes, falling in love, for thousands and thousands of years. It’s a story about peeling back the glamor of legend and infamy and seeing the names in the history books for what they are: people, for better or for worse.

Me going at high speed to hit everything that hurt/ruined Altaïr (I can't drive lol):

(I originally posted this in my community, but decided to post it here too. 😆)

the more years go by, the more depressing this post gets

the world: *is going to shit*

me: Desmond Miles did not die for this

I think ubisoft forgot that desmond was a bartender in Manhattan. Realistically, when William hit desmond, desmond should have turned around and knocked the mf OUT

Some modern au Maria doodling !

Cut off/disowned by her parents and had some rough run ins making ends meet for Robert de Sable (now an ex) but they got Altaïr and Malik now :))

Of course Ezio is going to have wrist and hand and arm pains. He wasn't trained in the art of the assassins -- he isn't used to their weapons. He's brawled with his fists and wielded a rapier (as was common for nobles at the time) but the robes are heavy on shoulders used to thin cottons and the bracers awkward and clumsy on his wrists. The flick of the hidden blade is foreign, and he has no-one to teach him the proper use until he is taken in by Mario. The heavy swords and maces and spears require so much force, and Ezio has always been a quick, lithe sort of fighter, filled with trickery and mischief instead of bludgeoning trauma

He does not know the right exercises to soothe strained muscles. Does not know what cramping to expect, and he is not used to running and leaping and diving in cumbersome robes and a hood that obscures his vision

Of course he is in pain. Of course he aches and cramps and curls up in a ball where nobody can see him as he tries to will away the persistent hurt. His body wasn't trained for this. Wasn't made for this. But he is forced to adapt anyway, and change everything about himself from the inside out. Would you not suffer from that too

Okay, we've all heard abt Desmond accidentally calling Shaun "Leo" or "Malik" and Shaun freaking out. And that's fun and all, but allow me to propose:

- A very tired Desmond called Rebecca "Claudia," and Rebecca's heart melted a little.

- Shaun brough Desmond some tea after a long session in the Animus, and he said, "Thank you, Shay." It took Desmond a good ten seconds to realize why everyone was staring.

- William was being Awful as per usual, and Desmond snapped in a perfect English accent. "Charles, control yourself or I'll have to ask you leave." The resulting explosion was heard from Abstergo headquarters.
