The pyramids was from old world, crazy cause people didn’t know cause the tombs was already abandoned, AC was during the cleopatra n Julius caesar era, n that fucced egypt up all the way because the romans took the land and stole artifacts, just like the game, i love AC all of them have my mind blown with history
So sad that the pavement was taken off from the pyramids. Ubisoft is God tier in video game, their matrix is often the same but they produce high quality video games (especially Origins), not like EA or Activision.
Sadly we have no records of how the Library of Alexandria looked like. There have been many iterations over the centuries, but no useful records remain to create a reconstruction, so the game tries its best to make something that would relate with the period. The library had hundreds of thousand of scrolls and writings, usually originals. At one point there was a law that any boat arriving the port had to be searched for books, and every book found was copied by the scribes of Alexandria, then the copy was send back to the owner, but the original was kept in the Great Library. Unfortunately so much was lost! Imagine all the great Greek plays that we'll never know about, or the works of great philosophers who are now only known by quotes from others!
..When Constantinople was lost to the Crusaders a similar amount of knowledge was lost. That's why many books of ancient writers are not known..and many by just fragments
@@prigual2901 ye, Alexandria is sadly far from being the only case of a great library being destroyed, hell the Assassin's Creed series is loosely based on a real life organization we know very little about since there library was burned when they were defeated by the mongol empire
They did phenomenal job with the game to create authentic ancient Egypt. The game is easily the best way to experience the ancient Egypt. Still I don't quite get why they still changed some minor things like the character inside the wall 01:47 with the same amount of job they could have done it the the way it is. But still amazing looking reconstruction.
Pyramid of Khufu* Sphinx* And what the hell with the library? Also I didn't know that the lighthouse existed.. We have 2 wonders of the ancient world in-game!
the pyramids in its first decades when they were still new had a cover on them with an ancient Egyptians Write and signs..they were like what showing in the game before the writing work finish
saied gamer Yes! I am! And f the wannabes and Afrocentrists who dare disrespect and claim our ancestors and their work. I consider myself Tut reborn I’m his age. ;)
It is the temple of Thoth at Hermopolis Magna. Abu Simbel is located in Lower Nubia, south of Aswan which is in Upper Egypt. This whole game is Lower Egypt. Abu Simbel is even further south than Thebes (Waset) in the DLC
That is definitely not how you spell the word SPHINX... The PYRAMIDS of Giza (the name of the whole complex) is the Pyramid of Khufu, "Abu Simbel's temples" is The Great Temple of Abu Simbel, "Sneferu Bent Pyramid" is JUST the Bent Pyramid...
@@drnanard9605 This just in, I am bilingual (English and Spanish). Don’t come at me with a comment like that :D Secondly, I was not being aggressive in pointing out the typos. I am not the only one in the comments section who pointed out the typos. Finally, this comment is a year old? Like dude… seriously?
@@greyghostcv6 my point is that these are not typos in some languages... And sure, I answered a one year old comment, but that's kind of hypocritical given that you yourself commented on a 2 years old video to point out imaginary typos, don't you think?
@@drnanard9605 If you have pointed that out nicely to begin with I would have been, oh thats cool. However, majority of people will not know that, and they won’t assume where the poster of the video is from unless the person who uploaded the video themselves points it out or its obvious. In this case, neither one is. So maybe dial down on the know it all attitude of yours.
@@greyghostcv6 read your initial comment again, sir. Look at how you were yourself playing the know it all. "This is *definitely* not how you spell the word SPHINX" And are you really gonna argue that people just assume everything is in English? That's so self-centered. English is not the default language. And if you don't recognize a language, you could just make a simple Google search instead of being borderline racist. And stop using that argumentum ad populum of yours, I don't care that most people here are dumbasses who jumped on the same bandwagon.
