Assassin's Creed Mirage - 30 Minutes of Master Assassin Open World Parkour, Stealth & Combat 

Really? I thought the stealth and hidden blade kill animations looked incredibly stiff

@@vanity1602you must not be watching then.

it is stiff. Older games have better and smoother animations than this one.@@ienjoyedmystay5521

What about the story? 80% of why ac is good is story and exploration

@@asain3586 ok, what about the story? Sure it’s no Ezio trilogy but it’s definitely not the worst AC story I’ve played so far (I will say I’m still very early into the game at this point). Also to counter, the story is never a huge issue to me anyway. I enjoyed the hell out of Syndicate despite its universally meh story and actually have Syndicate in my top three AC games because of how much fun it was to play the game. So I’m definitely not the only AC fan who doesn’t necessarily hold the story in such high regard. Of course a great story makes a game better, but if I’m having a good time playing the game itself I really don’t care about the story that much. For me, this is a classic-feeling AC game that I have wanted since the RPGs started and I’m happy with it.

😂😂😂

Did he just zipline with his bare hands???

​@@lildaiki7629yeah he does

Pure callouses bruh. Would be like shaking hands with Ben Grimm

Nah even assassin creed unity had better parkour and multiple assassination mechanics looks mid to me idk

@@user-km4nb4ko9g Assassin's creed unity stealth is below mediocre. It is super basic and relies on spamming smoke bomb and phantom blades, unity has the least creative stealth in ac franchise.

Bro that’s literally what this game consists smoke bombs and weak throwing knives it was even in the trailers 😂 ac unity flowed way faster than this crap takes more than 5 seconds for assassination to complete your literally stuck in place till it’s done

It just feels cheap to get multiple assassinations on slow mo and pressing analog only to have dude glitch from kill to kill with the same animation

@@user-km4nb4ko9gUnity was littered with way more glitches than this game, it was even considered broken on launch. The parkour, if you can even call it that, was literally just flying from roof top to roof top. Arno could jump ungodly lengths while being 2 feet above the ground. His walking animations were slow, and so was his air assassination. Don't even get me started on that. I never could get into Unity, Mirage feels better to me, but I can see the appeal after the patches. But neither is without their flaws.

usually how it goes for any ac game that is not ac2

Fr there’s no real parkour, it’s just Basim leaping up, they need to ditch this engine

Uknow what I'm thinking, how like they had certain wars that were going on during that time it was set I think, in some previous games, so put the Persians vs Romans especially during Khalid ibn Al waleed who was the greatest commander/warrior/fighter, and won battles when the odds were impossible, but idk if its set in the time this is so I might be wishing

It's a start to going back to roots as I see it. It's not a bad game, though. Let's hope we get closer to the assassins creed I grew up with soon, though. Ac 2 got me into gaming when I was a kid

Have yall even played AC1? Because mirage is the same BUT BETTER. The only _BIG_ difference is the combat. Parkour is more realistic than a dude just hopping around the map with no momentum so it looks "faster" Don't get me wrong the older AC games are better but nothing beats the AC1 map style bc after AC1, the only parkour option was on the side of the buildings and you'd just hop around the same types of roofs. AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED WITH THE ROOFS, archers EVERYWHERE _especially_ AC3. There's just chimneys on Unity but that's it for ALL AC games except AC1 and some of AC2. Me personally I like how the assassin's bureau are in the same structure as AC1 unlike valhalla. I also don't use the telportation option, and I play on the hardest difficulty: which isn't that hard but still keeps up the challenge with other AC games. I LOVE how they speak Arabic just like AC1 I'm also Egyptian so it's nice to see an AC game where it originated from where I'm from. Also you don't have to play like this idiot that just doesn't know how to play a true AC game and just goes in guns(swords) blazing and playing like he's speed running smhh You can literally play this game like a regular AC game if you want to, the gadgets are just a option not forcing it on you...

​@@XxCrxckedraiderTHAT'S LITERALLY EVERY AC GAME _EVER_ for crying out loud yall AC fans are FRUSTRATING and just going to keep complaining ever since AC3 and AC unity NO MATTER THE EFFEORT THAT'S PUT INTO GAMES if you don't like the game... DON'T BUY ITTT

It wasn’t really fluid at all looking back though. Required very little skill- Just stand there and counter, and just chain together kills in AC: Brotherhood. The enemies were total pushovers. And I was a huge fan of AC in middle and high school. Was my favorite game for a long time. But after playing Ghost of Tsushima, I realized that the combat in AC was way worse. Ghost of Tsushima outdoes AC in all main gameplay aspects. The combat there requires you to be mindful of your surroundings, watching for archers, and you need to have precise timing to block enemy attacks. Whereas AC is just- hold block and click square.

Nothing amazing about this, except the graphics.. the combat and parkour animation sucks

​@@alferinclan6933😂😂😂 cry about it

@@alferinclan6933go cry. Games better than you think. Is it perfect, no, but is it good, yes

​@@alferinclan6933cry some more

@@alferinclan6933 How do the animations suck at all? We've seen bad animation in this franchise in Odyssey, and this is worlds apart, it looks fluid and realistic. In fact, I'd say it's the best parkour animation we've had in the entire series other than Unity/Syndicate, which game would you say has better animation other than the obvious two?

I said the same thing. Same exact game that has been coming out since AC1.

You know the double hidden blade didnt exist at the time ??? 300 years before altair's time....ignorant

Wym fastest like story wise?

Wher did you pull that from? You're ass?

​@@merksftw6528seen other people comment about how quick he is, I was thinking movement but could be story too

It's closer to Origins to be honest. Unity was unique and I think the reason it's not coming back is because a lot of folks complained about it back in the days. I personally always loved it. But in short - you can do the continous parkour by holding down the parkour/jump button (x on the ps5) - going down is again done with the dodge button (hold it while on the ledge) - everything else is contextual and depending on camera orientation (ex: if multiple obstacles exist on multiple levels, like a pillar up and some ledges down, Basim will grab onto the one you're facing closest to the center or still in-screen. Kinda like always ) - outside that, there are some animations when going from one obstacle to another that "smooth" and tie everything in. I think it's simplistic enough that anyone can have fun with it, and presents enough elements of randomness to pull off "skillfull" moments.

Unity’s system is purely contextual

@@Khrazegamingis the parkour down system still around that was present in unity and syndicate?

I don’t know what you’re on about those wall run are so clean. And don’t talk about realism this is Assasssin’s Creed not parkour simulator lol

@@tonythefreerunner4628 its 2023 janky animations in a AAA game should not be present

@@themadtitan728 off course

“Hey the cinematic trailers are cool, but the game is same. Let’s try make an older game again and see how it goes. I’m sure that won’t be the same either.”

Go back play ac 1 and stop saying nonsense

This is a step in the right direction. Black flag isn’t even an assassins creed game. It’s a pirate simulator. This game is more oriented around the assassins. As it should be

Hahahahah. And they way he set him down and he pops right back up 😅

Yeah this dark souls like combat that they’ve had for a while sucks. I miss old combat like arkam asylum style.

​​​@@allieboy181tbh, Dark Souls' combat isn't that great. Sekiro had an actually innovative and satisfying system. I agree that Arkham-style combat systems are much better. They still allow for a demonstration of skill while looking so much better than ARPG games.

@MaksymilianSwierad yup, I miss chain linking finishing moves too. This open combat style is trash.

@@dohnjoe9211 yes sekiro’s combat was very well done as well!

It’s Valhallas engine not unity and unity’s engine is old and outdated as good as it is.

Its better than unity

interesting unity had sword of eden soooo

@@scr3verrrb70and 2 had the Papal Staff of Eden with a Apple of Eden inside it 😂

It’s a mixture of ac origins and the old ac games

except the base gameplay (movement), nothing else is like Origins.

If you dont understand it...then something is wrong with you...

You are a recruit in this game

eventually, as you rank up....yes. But this footage is post-campaign stuff :)

Yeah that’s weird. Unless that’s an upgrade? Otherwise this is an L

They just replaced those with the focus/fear takedown system. It's a good system as it gives both the kills and movement more of a continuous flow.

It was a planned DLC for valhalla and became its own game instead

@@xFaZebRuTaLx should've stayed a dlc

it's funny you say that because I find the desert to be best. I loved Origins just because of the setting. NOt sure why. Maybe the vibrant colors, the oasiss or the palm trees or the summer vibe. That's why Odyssey and Valhalla didn't do it for me. I just see that scenery every day.

@@Khrazegaming Perhaps its subjective depend previous game we play it or environment we live in..

@@Khrazegaming 100% agree. Must just be subjective tastes because my friend hates Origins solely because of the desert setting (despite being a huge Ancient Egypt buff)

it was when it launched

glowing sword is likely the DLC swords from Sands of Time crossover

Theres limit to how fast a human can run in parkour

​@@kani5970limmits to running but pulling your self to jump 5 meters up from a hanging position the limits suddenly fall of

Lol what?!?

This only needs side ejects

It isn't Disappointing either exiting in my opinion, but a solid implementation which is cool...
