How nostalgic! This was actually my very first Assassin's Creed game! I had just gotten a PSP and this game came with it. I don't know if the community sees this as a good or bad game, and it's true that it may not have aged well (then again it IS a PSP game so you know...) but I absolutely loved it. It got me into the series, and I bought both AC1 and AC2 right after I finished this one!
Glad I am not alone, because this was the first AC game for me too! I heard of the AC of course but I had no console at the time. I played this game so many times and it is the whole reason Assasin's Creed is my favorite franchise
Yeah, and when you think about how much Altair goodness we got from those games, we could've definitely gotten a lot more, should Ubisoft had given us a "proper" Altair game on the previous gen consoles.
Well he technically had one. This game IS canon and it's Altair focused. It's the direct sequel to AC1 on Altair's side. And then Revelations is shared between Ezio and Altair, and it does close the book on Altair's story, so there you go. AC1, Bloodlines and Revelations. Trilogy, right there.
Ok, I really love this. It expanded so much the relationship between Altair and Maria, and even in a short, contained game it gave space to some assassin's philosophy and nods to the original main entry. Kudos
Glad this exists. saved me from playing the emulator version. I'm playing through every AC game in chronological order and emulating it wasn't very pleasant haha
Why? Why? WHY????! Why didn´t they make this game on PC as well? Altair was so underused. Also, why does he say "ugly, old Assassin"? He was like 27 at the time. I get that life expectancy wasn´t great back then, but come on!
Exciting escape sequence at the end, but that rock debris at 51:03 would have killed them, lol. Thank you for uploading :) It was one of the best PSP games I had played some years back. Made me feel very nostalgic.
If only they made a REMAKE game of Altair containing AC1 & bloodlines & maybe even parts of chronicles/revelations all into one game using the ps5 power
I've often thought that if they made a remake of AC1 with reworked missions more akin to the later games, as well as adding new missions retelling the stories of Bloodlines and Altair's Chronicles, it could rival the Ezio games.
Love how in revelations old Altair mentions when in his youth he wanted to know all. Young Altair said one life might be enough Old Altair said he saw enough for a lifetime
its nice to get some context for stuff that gets revealed in 2, i had always wondered who the hell the woman was and why they were so intimate out of no where, had no idea she was the templar bait and what had happened since then to when she got pregnant, kinda stupid that they relied on this spin-off to give that information, i do hope if AC1 ever gets remade they can add on this bloodlines stuff, or atleast the relationship between Altair and Maria so the story is a bit smoother between 1 and 2
Thanks alot for this video, im currently trying to replay all Assasins creed games on pc, because i kinda forgot the over-arcing story the last decade. but for this playthrough i was also interested in all Spinoff titles, and wether or not their "Lore" was canon or not. And rather than watch someone elses playthrough for 3 or 4 hours, i rather only watch that interest me, which is the story in the cutscenes., Thankyou for this video, and saving me alot of time !!!
I remember playing this on my psp back in high-school lol damn this is the first time I'm seeing a where the graphics looks way worse than I remembered 🤣
Love the Maria and Altair moments there a true love and cute couple all the way indeed also greatfully Altair reformed Maria and gave her a better life and they gained children of there own that’s so sweet and cute indeed yeah!
