> [@Screaming\_Meat](#): > > what’s your favourite assassin’s creed game? 1 and 2. Altair is a pretty cool badass and the City of Akkon was great. Ezio is also alright and quite charming but my favorite moment is when they hang his brother, because i fuckin hate Petruccio. ---

Definitely character wise Assassins creed 2/Revelations/Brotherhood (Ezio ofc), vibe wise though im gonna say AC Origins got me so much in the mood. Exploring Tombs and pyramids to entering the Duat (Egyptian hell) and beyond this game had it all and the soundtrack was amazing ---

> [@Screaming\_Meat](#): > > so what’s your favourite assassin’s creed game? Odyssee. I began playing with Origin, then played the Ezio collection or how it is called. It was fine but I lack the nostalgia to really like these. Valhalla felt random, never could really bond with the characters. But Odyssee was great, Kassandra was really likable and the world was a joy to travel. Just the kids looked all the same. 🤔 ---

> [@Euler13](#): > > …there are rumours of multiple Assassin’s Creed games to be revealed. Well the rumours were right. Along with the world premier reveal trailer for Assassin’s Creed Mirage, set in Baghdad, and releasing in 2023. [![](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/1/4/140aceafb23f062e7ee8e44044fb706ac1effd93.jpeg "Assassin's Creed Mirage: Cinematic World Premiere | #UbiForward") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x55lAlFtXmw) They also announced that they are working on Codename: Red, which is an Assassin’s Creed game set in feudal Japan. Sadly, the video doesn’t really show much [![](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/d/a/da1b378cd18548bc6402bdfc02626781332157a4.jpeg "Assassin's Creed Codename Red - Reveal Trailer | Ubisoft Forward 2022") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD_DemeUuy8) And another title called Codename: Hexe, and like Codename: Red, the video doesn’t reveal very much, but they did say they were looking forward to fans picking apart the hidden clues. They also said it would be a “different” gaming experience, but nothing more was said. [![](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/f/c/fc6dcf8e6912ec45a49a0843d57606abc7ee1f07.jpeg "Assassin's Creed Codename Hexe Trailer [HD 1080P]") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeACu8uVAzw) They also talked about Unity and how this would allow players to access the Assassin’s Creed universe with some kind of Animus experience. They also teased that there may be multiplayer options. Finally, they also talked briefly about the upcoming Netflix live action Assassin’s Creed TV show. (Actually they also talked about a mobile version of the game, but who cares?) ---

Does anyone else think a game set in Feudal Japan with a ninja/lady ninja (don’t know the actual name something with a K) is just a really cheap and thoroughly uninspired choice for a setting and character? ---

I don’t know if it’s unintentional by the ESRB. People have been floating around that it might have to do with NFTs, through the program that they quietly shut down to put to use at a later time. Other games have had “Simulated Gambling” as a tag for lootboxes and things like that, but this “Real Gambling” is new, something we haven’t seen before as a main game mechanic it seems. One that would let you wager actual human dollars on something that’s a gamble And that’s probably NFTs awarded to you, in game, that you’re able to sell out to whomever you want on your own time. But it’s a gamble as to what NFT and what price that item might be fetching Regardless of whether that’s true of not it would be pretty hilarious to see this skip out on Console stores since I’m sure they don’t host any AO games at all out of principle. ---

I guess the mark of respect is nice, but I imagine I can probably watch it on another Nintendo channel, or one of the game journalist website Youtube pages that will stream it as well. Ah well. Nintendo says the livestream will focus on releases for this holiday season. So I’m guessing that will probably mean some Splatoon 3, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and Bayonetta 3 coverage. The big rumours are Zelda Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD versions making their way to the Switch and Metroid Prime trilogy remaster, perhaps in time for the holidays? ---
