Despite the fact that it includes both magical swords and a scene where you shoot down WWII fighter planes using a machine gun bolted onto the Eiffel Tower, there’s very little humor in the game. The story also takes itself far too seriously. At one point someone actually says the phrase "a rare breed of human with a surplus of ancient DNA," and you're supposed to make sense of it. Unity's story is basically what would happen if Dan Brown wrote a video game after binging on too many Twilight Zone episodes. There's also the weird, convoluted sci-fi narrative that sits on top of the main story, just like in past games: you're not actually Arno, but someone from the modern day revisiting his memories using fancy new technology. I rarely knew why I was doing something, other than because it would somehow help Arno's quest to find the man who killed his father.
Unity continues the century-spanning tale of the conflict between assassins and Templars that holds the Assassin's Creed series together, and it's just as confusing as ever. In this case, he’s avenging his father’s death, which leads him to join the ranks of the assassins. If you wait long enough, you'll hear the woman calling, wondering why no one will help her get her purse back.Īssassin's Creed: Unity stars Arno Dorian, a young man who, like every video game hero before him, is out for revenge. But as soon as you stop to soak up some of that Parisian charm you'll spot something off: a weird glitch, a character walking into a wall, a guard that decides to kill you because you ran too fast. When you're rushing through Paris, dashing across the rooftops, many of its issues simply breeze right past you.
It's beautiful, but Unity is a bland, repetitive, and unimaginative adventure that doesn't do the city justice. But the city is also a facade, attempting to mask my least favorite game in the series since the original. She lived in the French Revolution-era Paris depicted in Assassin's Creed: Unity, one of the most beautiful, detailed cities I've ever explored in a video game. It was a never-ending cycle that lasted for years.
Every five minutes, at seemingly random places throughout the city, a thief would steal her purse and she'd scream for someone to help. I don't know her name, but she usually wore a green dress and for some reason spoke with a thick English accent. Sitemap Page was generated in 0.I once met a woman from Paris.
