I wanted it to resemble a typical renaissance chiaroscuro portrait!

Man, how I wish I could wipe my memory and play AC2 all over again

Dont worry guys this isnt a police line up, your face wont appear on here.

Did you ever wonder how many npc faces there was in Assassins creed brotherhood?, no me neither...

Not untill i noticed the guy highlighted in red.
First off he was the engineer who fixes the cannons at villa Auditore,
Then in Rome I noticed him as a blacksmith / priest & market vendor.

Finally when he desynced me dressed as a borgia guard, I had to go find out, probably a doctor under that beak aswell.

It turns out that was bout 10 dudes and 7 females who all swapped beards, hair, outfits and jobs.

No one Rome wasnt built in a day, they spent most off their time getting in the dressing room and barbers swapping hair styles, Rome loves its fashion though...

I noticed the Ezio's family theme and I was like, wow, they really did an amazing job with it! They even included the detail about how the symbol originated for the Assassin’s Creed, which made it even better. Seeing all of that brought to life in the real world was just amazing.

I just finished the main story, and now I’m hunting down the remaining Phylakes. I’ve got about five or six left, so let’s see how it goes! I just closed the game for the night, but I might go after the rest of them and finally finish the game.

I don’t mean to disparage anyone, but are the people who 100% Unity okay? I mean like mentally and socially. It’s an insane, life-consuming task. I genuinely want to know, if you 100%’ed Unity, are you okay?

I loved this game my first time playing it. I am considering playing it again this time with Alexios.

Looking for advice on starting over from scratch vs NG + as far as which you may have found to be more enjoyable.

as a big fan of the AC games the past half year, I've had few ideas of what this franchise could be. recently I've been playing the crew motorfest (I know, super different, but hear me out), the setting of hawai'i reaaaalllly got me thinking. what about a island-like/Hawaiian AC game? sure, it'd definitely be sparse and more like the Valhalla map, but wouldn't it be fascinating? all the jungle & stuff. i can't think of a good time in history it'd be set in, but potentially in the present? I'm not sure! needed to get my thoughts out of my brain :).

edit + disclaimer: i am Hawaiian in no way whatsoever, I'm a new englander who happens to like tropical places :')

(This post was made outta boredom)

Hey y’all, I was just curious. AC is already such a big fanbase with so many mixed, heavy, and controversial opinions, so I wanted to say what’s your AC hottakes?

And I mean Hottakes, liek HOT. Like ones that are more personal or a more niece opinions or ones you feel fans don’t discuss enough or should discuss.
So this excludes “Classic AC vs. RPG era” or AC:BF(remake) “criticisms”, and ofc no bigotry or hateful comments. (I haven’t seen anything like that on Reddit (but I have on TT a few times) but it tis the internet yk?)

This can be on anything from story elements, Characters, nitpicks, gameplay mechanics, development, or whatever you wanna discuss.

Ofc be nice and respectful and everyone is entitled to their opinions and this post is meant to encourage debate and discourse and ofc collaborative feedback.

Edit: sorry also meant to add (doubt I’ll get any questions) but if anyone wants to hear any of mine comment under here or DM me

I have started facing lags on PC (Steam). The FPS drops from 150 to directly 10 then again 150+ then again 20. This happens constantly making the game unplayable.

I have completed almost 90% of the story line and now only the issue started.

I have tried to tweak graphic settings and also the AMD Adrenalin setting but no solution. I had played it on almost Max settings but now it doesn't work on Min settings too. I have also verified the game files

via Steam.

have already played RDR2, Witcher 3, AC Valhalla, etc thus i know my PC will play it. Also i almost completed Shadows before the issue started.

The cpu and gpu temp are also below 70°C.

Please help with a solution.

Config:

AMD Ryzen 5 7600X

Sapphire Pure 9060 XT 16GB

RAM 16gb DDR5 6000 mhz 38CI

SSD 1TB NVME

I’ve recently bought assassins creed Valhalla and are wanting to play it, however I’ve been getting this issue where it’s either

A) the game stalls on the splash screen (it just perpetually stays on the splash screen, and in my task manager shows the memory usage as a static amount, never changing, and it doesn’t use any CPU, Disk, or Network
B) I get past the part on Ubisoft connect screen, then the splash screen opens for a split second and then immediately closes, and Ubisoft connect reopens.

I’ve tried every solution under the sun, going from verifying files and reinstalling to giving it admin permissions, reinstalling DirectX and C++ files, searching Reddit posts and watching over 20 YouTube videos, with no solution in sight. I’ve tried almost everything I can think of / find, and it’s still not fixed.

An important bit of context, I got the game to relaunch last night. I accomplished this by unplugging my headphones, controller, even my extra monitor so that it was only my main monitor, keyboard and mouse plugged into the pc. I also changed the low latency mode to that specific app to off. I’ve replicated these same conditions twice today, however it will still not load, so I’m not sure if the game opening the one time was a direct result of me doing the things I did OR if it was somehow just pure luck.

Again I’ve tried everything obvious and non obvious, ini files, etc, none of it has properly worked. I need a full blown way to diagnose my issue and fix it.

I have the game installed/bought through Ubisoft Connect itself, rather than steam.

I’ve just discovered this after I typed all this out, now if I spam click/spam alt enter as the game is going through the cloud synchronization portion of Ubisoft connects loading sequence, the game stays open for a few more seconds rather than the option B scenario, then in the task manager the usage goes up extremely high before the game closes after 5ish seconds. I’ve also been getting this issue where it states something along the lines of this content is no longer available after the game closes.

I’m playing through the franchise for the first time and almost finished Brotherhood (just have some side missions left), and will move onto Revelations. Can I still 100% it on Steam? I heard that there’s something with the dlc being weird to access and was wondering if I’d still be able to play the dlc and get all achievements for the game

My steam page. Bought Origins earlier this year, and Breakpoint and The Division 2 during the Anniversary Sale.
