Please note, this thread is aimed ideally towards those who have played at least three of the following Assassin's Creed games: AC I, Ezio trilogy, AC III, AC Liberation, AC IV, AC Rogue before the generation 8 AC games launched. So if you haven't played these games or only played them after playing the RPG trilogy (and Unity, Syndicate) this thread is not for you. The aim is to try to gauge the perceptions of those who have "grown up" with Assassin's Creed and therefore are qualified to talk about significant cultural moments from that time as they happened. I realise that probably limits responses, as I get the impression that a lot of fans here only got on board after the switch to the massive open world RPGs, but it would be nice to hear from OG fans as well.
First, a screening question:
Have you played three or more of these games before the 8th generation of consoles ? (AC I, Ezio trilogy, AC III, AC Liberation, AC IV, AC Rogue)
Now for the meat of the post:
Did you enjoy modern day and overall lore?
If so, what did you like about it and do you still like it in its current incarnation?
If not, why? And are you glad it has been diminished?
If you played it, what do you think of the recent RPG trilogy? (If you liked it, why? If not, why?)
If you fell off the series for whatever reason has Mirage peaked your interest again?
Do you have faith that Mirage will be a true return to the series roots or will it just be…a mirage?
If Mirage is good will it renew your faith in the series or is it too late? (If yes, why? If not, why?)
These are just guideline questions. Feel free to comment with anything you like about your experience with AC through the years and your thoughts on Mirage / the series going forward.
