What A Maxed Out Assassin Looks Like in AC Unity

I've been doing a series called "Maxed Out Assassins", where I showcase gameplay from different Assassin's Creeds once you reach the endgame and have unlocked everything. They're supposed to showcase the ultimate version of the assassin in each game. This is not necessarily the most canon version, although they tend to overlap in the old games because they were made with the assassin power fantasy in mind.
AC Unity is a bit of a special case because so much of what makes an assassin "maxed out" in this game has to do with Arno as a character and his relationship with parkour and NPCs. AC Unity is a complete sandbox game, and while it does help a lot to have a bunch of tools at your disposal, what makes gameplay truly advanced is the way Arno is able to use Paris as his playground. Arno, at his best, could wipe out any enemy camp without any upgrades at all, especially if you know how to play him properly, and the additional tools add a bit of thematic fun. So I hope you enjoy this showcase in this classic AC unity mission.

What's Your favourite Thing About AC Unity?

[@natha2607]

I loved the unrealistic parkour ledge catches and all in the beginning, but how do you do that? Can you give a link? Nice work.

[@abather11]

French architecture

[@assassinscreedfan3830]

Everything. I loved the story(even though people hated it), Parkour is awesome, tools are awesome and different possibilities of assassinations. I still wish they add new game plus for this game

[@HHidden0ne]

The stealth

[@loganfrey_]

Favorite animation in any AC game easily goes to Arno just free falling and catching himself. Just looks so cool while being probably the most unrealistic thing ever.

​@@darrylhesatama3366They know ? They meant as in, compare this parkour to AC 1 to Brotherhood. While AC is not realistic, the climbing felt more real, compared to Unity. But it was probably better with Unity, since it allowed you to do a lot of climbing fast.

arno must have really strong arms and bones if he didn't die in that last part

[@AltairStealth]

[@DominikArena]

The only issue i had with Unity was that, while advertised with better parkour, what this really meant was that they made almost everything climbable. Which, on paper, was probably a good sounding idea, but with how cramped the streets of France are in this game, freerunning, at times, became a nightmare as Arno's AI will try and predict the player's intention and lock onto the most random of handholds, often leading to annoying or sometimes mission ending mistakes

[@AltairStealth]

Yeah that is very annoying

[@somekid7867]

while i totally agree it got annoyign at times, i think it was a step in the right direction. recently i just got done playing mirage (it was mid) and figured i'd hop on unity just to compare the feeling of the parkour and combat. and... wow. they've really downgraded ever since. unity's parkour just feels sooo smooth, and the few times it messes up are just mild setbacks compared to the clunkiness of mirage.

mhm

[@shadow_crne1030]

Syndicate went in the right direction, but Origin screwed it up completely......... like an 180 deg. turn

[@ascended8174]

@@shadow_crne1030 I disagree, Syndicate simplified and removed even more control for the parkour system, as well overshadowing it with the grappling hook, which was a necessity for it's terrible level design. The combat system was ridiculous paired with its over the top animations to the point where it was silly and comical rather than badass. The story was just the twins mucking things up for themselves and fixing it later while getting commended for it, which is sad considering how they have a genuinely good dynamic. That's not even mentioning the dumb invisibility cloak. The Jack the Ripper DLC was really cool though, I'll admit that. But overall, Syndicate was a step down from Unity nearly all aspects Origins was definitely a departure, but at least it still had an assassin unlike Odyssey and Valhalla. I enjoyed Origins, but more as an RPG, rather than an AC game

[@shadow_crne1030]

@@ascended8174 I only agree on the Combat being a little to dramatic for an Assassin..... The parkour is simplified, but not as glitchy as Unity..... by the way what do you mean by "terrible level design".

[@ascended8174]

@@shadow_crne1030 The reason it feels less glitchy is because there was far less to control. Game didn't even let you freely jump across large gaps anymore. What I meant by level design is how London was built. Compared to the streets of Paris, where parkour even on ground level was accommodated. In Syndicate, the building designs are just too flat to be interesting for parkour. Tall buildings with flat walls, all far apart separated by large streets, offering little to no parkour routes other than the one laid out. It's simply not an environment meant for parkour, which is why it's a step down from Unity. Yes, I get that London really was like that in the victorian era, but seeing how they handled New York and Boston in AC3, I think they could've done a better job, taken some of those creative liberties, or maybe just not set a game where a third or even half of the gameplay is parkour in a place where you can't parkour _coughodysseyvalhalla_ If you look at Mirage, the parkour might not be OG AC or Unity level, but the environment was built for parkour, letting people express themselves with movement better than the last 3 RPGCreeds combined. Level Design matters in Assassin's Creed
