Yousuf's death killed me. He's like that goofy friend who's always making sure everyone's happy and laughing while also making sure they have your back in every bad situation. RIP Yousuf.
So I'm going to nerd out a bit about the whole lifespan thing you guys mentioned. The "average" life span aka "life expectancy" was relatively low. That's because of high infant mortality. If you have baby who dies before their first birthday and a man who lives to be a hundred, the average life span is 50. That doesn't mean people started dropping dead of old age at 50. If you survived your childhood, you could expect to live a long natural life. And keep in mind I said "natural" life. You could still die of disease or be killed by something/someone, further decreasing the average life span of the time.
Thank you for saying this so I didn't have to also nerd out. Its one of those things that is absolutely correct to say, but is misleading because averages aren't actually that important in regards to spectrums.
It would have likely still bee like maybe 60 or 70 if you are lucky either way, maybe 1 or 2 decades more w/ good RNG if you are rich enough to ensure you will survive external factors as much as possible w/ sheer resources etc alone
@@skebaba918 60 is still a bit low but 70-75 is definitely a fair estimate especially for folk with less resources like you said. Definitely not reaching 100 unless you're ungodly levels of lucky, but, people also aren't having grey hair and heart attacks at 30 like some folk think.
'No books . . . . no wisdom . . . . Just you, fratello mio' / it hits everytime, nothing beats the feeling when you play from the first ac game, it hit me and tears came. Altair and Ezio meeting like that and ezio's last requiescat in pace.
Ezio's songs in the minstrel disguise are hilarious. Some are purely referential in-universe (Vieri, Cesare etc) while others mock the games themselves (like how annoying minstrels are in II and Brotherhood).
Suleiman goes down as one of the Greatest Leaders in history in my opinion. hence his title Suleiman the Magnificent or Suleiman the Lawgiver, he was the longest reigning Sultan in the history of the Ottoman empire.
2:39:43 going back to the american revolution and chess example, i feel like a big thing we have to remember when "breaking the rules" is that its a dangerous game to play for everyone, the american revolution could have totally gone the way of the British many, many many times! Its also dangerous for civilians on both sides. People will get hurt when you break the rules, good or bad, depending on yout perspective. In the game, we see people break the rules or go by different rules, it ends up failing for them for while we won by the skin of our teeth.
Also... Logically, who plays by the rules the ruling party has institutionalized. Obviously its gonna be in their favour. But then with chess specifically you also have how many iterations and variations amongst cultures that have been spawned by which point you could also argue as to what are the "true" rules. One could argue all the same things with regards to the UN, modern combat etc.
you mentioned it a few times throughout this video about how people live to like they were 30. now I admit I'm not a scholar on the subject, but I'm pretty sure you're misunderstanding how lifespan averages work. Life span averages are flattened greatly by the large amount of infant mortality rates. so while the average might be around 30, the actual average of adult lifespans would be much higher. because if you survive past a certain age of childhood, then you pretty much good unless something drastic happens.
"He craves power because he is powerless." - Altair Good catch, remembering that until the end of the episode. Altair said that in the flashbacks about Abbas, the Assassin's leader at the time. Also, Altair is in his early 80's at the time of those flashbacks. At the start of them, it said his age in the bottom-right corner. Ezio is in his 50's in Revelations.
Even though I knew it was coming after playing the games myself in the past, and now again, most recently. Yusuf's death still hits hard because of how kind, funny, and caring he was.😭😭😭
This is the peak of Ezio's skill and confidence. He is effortless in his stealth, subtlety, and charm. His pace has slowed a bit with age, but his experience lends itself to a quick and pragmatic fighting style. His enemies go down, and they stay down. No drawn-out fight for him anymore. 2:35:16 This is actually what makes Suleiman a great Sultan. He's a shifty and conniving person, but this keeps him a step ahead of those who would plot against him. Tarik was right about his evaluation of Suleiman's uncle: he's a good person, but he'd make a weak Sultan. He'd look for the best in people and miss the worst. 3:02:16 According to the pop-up at the beginning of the scene, Altair is 89 at this point.
My favourite game in the Ezio Trilogy! And second Favourite in all games! In this game Ezio is past his prime and now old yet still as ferocious as always!
It seems great to see you two reacting to this third game in the Ezio’s Journey as this one make me tear up till the movie of Embers taking my breath away within this series of Ezio being a stubborn young man to a old, wise and outstanding character that the Creed follows in. Also having Altair life in Revelations seem to have some nice to broken moments to witness. 🥲 So I hope you two check out “Desmond’s Journey” as it focuses on his life on becoming an Assassin, then maybe check out “Lost Archives” as it focus on Subject 16. Than the movie Embers being the closing of Ezio’s Journey. But not for Desmond as his story still goes on in AC3 and Black Flag. So with all said, I can share that we seen the “Altair’s Keys” was appearing again in Mirage’s Ending where we can see Basmin discovering them at the ending. So Ubisoft seems to be nice to reused parts from past games to new one format.
3:12:00 A little info: Cappadocia is currently located in a city called Nevşehir in Turkey and there is no sea in this city, but Ezio goes there by ship. :D
I think you guys would LOVE reacting to all of the character's story cutscenes from Twisted Metal Black! It has such a cinematic quality and still holds up to this day!
i'm glad you guys are getting into AC Revelations. btw it's me Christian i just added two extra words behind the word christian. i'm still doing trailers but i'm also sorry for not being there for the past year or so I've just been focused on my job as a retail stocker and trying to get by. anyways i hope you guy's enjoyed the series and ya'll are going to be very excited for 3 and 4 Conner and the pirate assassin are my favs and i'm not going to name 4's protagonist because i don't know if ya'll know him yet. but if ya'll do they're two of the most brutal in the games.
those keys, didn't think they would be antique MP4 38:53 morale is more like purchase points where you can buy extra troops and armaments during the final parts of the journey here Altair was in his 90s having died at 92
Altair was in his 60’s when maria was killed, then he was in his mid 80’s when he killed abbas, later he was 92yo (i think) when he send away those keys with niccolo polo and he finally rested at the age of 96 (i think) It’s been quite a while since i last played this game The ezio journey ends with embers, then a new ac era began after it (ac3, liberation, ac4 and ac rogue) You guys probably felt less invested with secondary characters than in brotherhood or ac2 because (fun fact) revelations was a rushed project since ac3 still wasn’t able to be released that year. Kinda crazy to think that when wouldn’t even have this game that wraps up with all our three characters
You need to check out Assassins Creed's short animated movie. Where they show Ezio true final journey, and Assassins Creed 3 too. You'd be surprised what happens to Desmond at the end. It's basically the final conclusion to Desmond's story, and after that they continue the story without him
Fun fact about Duccio (Claudia’s ex-fiancé): After his last encounter with Ezio, his business starts to fail and became poor. Then in the 1520s, Duccio died from rabies (specifically a dog bite). During that point, a vaccination for rabies was not discovered yet. Because, a vaccination of rabies was discovered/administered in 1885.
Honestly a sad way to go even for Duccio. Thought to be fair if the game took place in 19 century that still wouldn't matter because when the first "vaccine" was created people from all across the world sent people to france in hopes that it's not too late for them. So if someone in the 19 centery got bit by a dog in New York and you don't have a literal colonel on dial to put you on a ship to Europe then you probably gonna die regardless.
Please finish desmonds story aswell by watching ac 3 , it was a title not much appreciated at the time of release but as time passed people appreciated it. Best combat imo
With regards to age... I read of 1 of the persian emperors a while ago whom apparently died at the age of 71 or 72 on the battle field in a charriot so. Also last time i was at a graeyard the average life was 60-70 it seemed when looking amongst the many. I only saw 2 people reach their 90s and none reach 100. That was the modern area of my local graveyard so idk about maximum ages being too different really. We could just argue we have better minimal hygine and food intake in the west on avg for the poorer element of society.
IN reality selim took the throne and destroyed safavids and memluks doubling the empire in merely 2 years after him his son prince sulieman took the throne and later became the greatest ottoman sultan in history known to us as (sulieman the magnificent) or the law giver
You guys need to react to Fallout TV Show, you can see the money and it has good writting too. Best Amazon show Imo. Thank you for the Ezio journey so far.
I think they completely misunderstood Clay (16)'s character. It's understandable, only so much a recap video can do, but he's arguably one of the best, and most selfless characters in the entire series...
@@svr7823 good catch, I wrote 16 first then erased it to write Clay out of respect, then figured they wouldnt know who "Clay" is and typed the wrong number
