  • After hearing the release of Ac mirage, I replayed the og AC. Its quite fun, but some things didn’t age well (like the blue filter on the game).

    Its funny how in “returning to roots” they took the worst parts of the game, the investigations. Which could work, but finishing thw tatget them 5 mins after meeting them is not great for characterization. The idea of doing more sidequest means more info for the finale of the chapter is nice, but most of the infos are really trivial, like “Guard gonna close the castle gate after alert” or that the scolars can get past the guard, which is the main way of getting into the city itself, and is also tutoriaized.

    Theres some dumb shit you can do, my favorites were synchronizing while hunted, and the guards just stand around you on the roofs, dumbfounded, or fooling around in combat and realizing the hidden blade can instakill even after alerted, if they are on the ground or you are behind them. So its possible to run aroun 6 guards and backstab them one by one.





  • Battlepasses are usually an another progression system with time limited skins and rewards. Usually a season last a couple of months, then a new one starts with new progression and rewards. Sometimes there are events tied to a season.

    In theory, it means the game always gets updates, but in actuality its ripping off players for like a handful of skins (theres a lot of filler in most of them), while getting them to play the game more because of fomo.

    Also sometimes you can earn back the price back in in-game currency, so if you keep maxing them out its "free" after the first one.
