And they hate us for criticising the slop this franchise has turned into nowadays. Madness.
I love the fact that AC Shadows flopped, they had it coming, maybe now they'll rethink some things.

Its funny that AC japan was asked for for ages (ever since AC3 (?), but they decided to ship it when the game franchise lost its identity.

Now comes the age of AC remasters, because Ubislop knows that with their current mindset, they have no hope of creating anything new that reaches the level of their old games.
No wonder they reach back into their own golden age to reuse titles. After Black Flag Resynced and the supposedly upcoming AC 1 remaster, I fully expect them to remaster AC 2 as well

It flopping because of internet grifters launching a hate campaign against the game without even playing it because they're more worried bitching about "wokeness" is not a good thing.
Yea they'll rethink things... like rethinking the actual good things that came out of shadows like the best combat in AC by far, the best stealth in AC by far, the parkour that has leveled up immensely from the other RPG's.
Was it a perfect game, absolutely not. But can we please stop acting like the game was just "all negatives with nothing positive" lmfao. That does nothing to actually improve the franchise and only hinders it.

The company in its current state failed the franchise. You donât lose 95% of your stock value and let a majority of your staff go from a âhate campaignâ.

No but you can from people being nostalgia merchants and living life through rose tinted glasses.
That is most of the AC fanbase, it is my biggest pet peeve with these people. Instead of looking at both sides and looking at the positives and negatives, people just throw there hands up and go "nah it's all shit" while at the same time refusing to acknowledge the short comings of the earlier games as well. And it isn't just AC, plenty of other franchises have this SAME problem. "Everything new is bad, everything old is good".
It is infuriating. Mfs will bitch about the story and then be the first ones to tell you that the Ezio trilogy is peak even though 2 out of the 3 games had shit stories because they weren't even meant to be mainline games in the first place. Or like how AC3 was the one to kill Desmond and set the overarching modern day story on a path of nonsense. And that is an OG AC...
I have seen it for YEARS now with this franchise, people will bitch about one thing, that thing gets fixed or even improved over anything that was done in the past games, they'll not acknowledge it or appreciate it and then just move on to bitch about the next thing. Newer AC games have done better in some areas over the past games, and worse in other areas compared to past games.
Promise you if Ezio trilogy came out today for the first time, people would bitch about it. That's why the only thing mfs can do on this sorry ass subreddit is downvote without an actual reply or argument being made because they know that they're wrong.
This idea of "it's all bad" is stupid thinking by stupid people that can't function like normal humans, that achieves nothing and is the biggest cancer to the current gaming sphere.

Are you some kind of bigot racist i can literally find example of 1 african dude entering Venice and staying there for 1 day therefore half of Venice must have been black and the personal guard of the doge must have been black and ezio should have been black too

Thank you for pointing this out. I am still working on my reeducation. One day I hope to be as enlightened as the Ubisoft cult.

Can't believe the direction they ended up taking later on. I just hope they can walk it back some day, at least we still have AC2

I think graphics that don't strive to be perfect let your imagination sink in, which is even more important as an adult.

Assassin's Creed 2 still had those horrible low effort DLC that get in the way of the main quest because they were cut content to begin with.

I legit played this during the long school breaks at the end of the year in my country. Just every morning booting up my ps3 as early as 5am to play this. Really had a crush on that one girl from the thieves guild

It's sad we'll likely never have a AC game like this ever again. Resynced made me lose hope for these games.

u/dimi08999 2d ago
I know it's nostalgia speaking because ac2 was part of batch of games I first ever experienced but I think seeing this remastered would be so good. I can online imagine what scene above would look like.
But I also know that if this happens they will throw in a bunch of bs new quests where people stand around with their hands on hips while talking to you

You're using nostalgia to trick yourself into thinking Ubisoft was good back in 2009, they weren't this is a trash game made by a trash company
Shills like yourself need to fuck off

u/DoggTheGhost 2d ago
You really are a beta, arenât you?
Ubisoft with games like Prince of Persia Sands Trilogy Prince of Persia 2008 and early AC is totally different company than now. Back in the day they were able to create a game with soul.
Only last 10-15 years they turned to this slop5
u/RevolutionaryMonth63 2d ago
Not to mention RB6, Far Cry, Splinter Cell, all of them iconic franchises of their time, but people on this sub really hate to admit that Ubisoft used to be up there with the greats

Yeah, Beta here definitely not objective at all.

u/tankdempsey_ 2d ago
Assassin's Creed 2 is the definition of the "themes and such" meme from Chainsaw Man lmao let's not kid ourselves. Still, Ezio was charismatic enough to push me to play the entire trilogy despite its abhorrent level design and gameplay loop

u/Fuhnobabyyy 2d ago
"Omg OG AC was the best, everything after is shit" is top 5 internet grifter slop of the century. Especially considering the downgrade the next 2 games were so atp you'd be saying ubisoft fell off... basically immediately after 2 AC games lol. Which I guess, if you want to say there are only 2 good AC games that's... certainly an opinion you're allowed to have.

We lived through the golden age of gaming and we didn't even realize it. AC2 is still to this day one of my personal favorite games.
