My Endgame Assassin | AC Mirage

The ending of Assassin's Creed Mirage was very satisfying to me, and while it may not have delivered a staggering twist to an expansive enigma, it gracefully expanded upon the rich lore established in Valhalla. I'm going to be controversial here and say that I loved, with every bone in my body, the modern-day/Isu storyline in Valhalla. Don't get me wrong, I hated the mythological gameplay sections of it and have never played anything more boring, but the story we got with the Norse Isu, Layla, Desmond and Basim is some of the more interesting AC Lore I've ever been exposed to. I truly think Darby Mcdevit performed a miracle pulling all those threads together. I love Basim's story and his link to the ISU (no spoilers) and I love how this is expanded upon in Mirage. The magnitude of the ending is one that is perfectly proportional to the magnitude of the game, and once again, it is a fresh change of pace. This isn't some universe-defining ending that changes the way we understand AC lore, and that is a good thing. This game manages to provide a compelling ending and tell a good origin story for one of my favourite characters in the franchise, and that is all I needed.
Ending the game in terms of gameplay, however, is no small change. Mirage is a stealth game that very heavily rewards you for the use of tools and abilities. it is also one that rewards you for understanding enemy behaviour and camp layouts. So playing through restricted areas of the game with a full toolset and an understanding of how to use your environment in your favour can completely change the experience of clearing the same camp you cleared earlier in the game. I thought it would be fun to show you my endgame assassin, and how I upgraded my tools to favour my style of play. I also think it is a good opportunity to show you how to use all the different tools harmoniously, and how to weave them into your use of assassin focus. Overall, I've absolutely loved AC Mirage and intend to continue playing it and replaying it for a while. but for now, enjoy my endgame assassin.
Assassin's Creed Mirage is an action-adventure game developed by Ubisoft Bordeaux and published by Ubisoft. The game is the thirteenth major instalment in the Assassin's Creed series and the successor to 2020's Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

Did you finish the game? What did you think of the ending?

[@coryskinner]

@AltairStealth I thoroughly enjoyed Mirage and I kinda deduced the ending lol. Also what is your tool setup? Thanks and keep up the great work.

[@masterchoda54]

I enjoyed the ending, although I wish we got to see more of Basim once he "became" Loki or whatever. It would be cool if we had a DLC featuring Baism/Loki searching Isu temples and training Hytham or whatever but I doubt it'll ever happen.

[@shoe43]

genuinely one of the best endings to a game i have ever played. i am in full agreement with you on the expansion of the lore established in valhalla and i really loved the intensity and drama of mirage’s ending

[@stupor_mundi]

I was happy to see this on my feed, your playthroughs are always so good. I was curious what you thought of Mirage but I had a feeling you'd appreciate what they did with this game. I noticed some YTbers giving this game undeserved flak, I think they do it for clout because roasting something always gets more views. But those who know and enjoy what AC is about at the core, Mirage ticks many boxes. Like you said those who plan their approach, use the environment, study the enemy's routine, take advantage of the tools and move in like an assassin will have fun in this game. I also liked the story, in nordic lore Loki had a brutal punishment so Mirage's twist made sense, and the parts in Alamut were so cool, seeing someone become an assassin from scratch was really special.

It’s incredible to finally be able to watch someone who can actually like Unity and not just complain about Mirage asking why it isn’t just Unity in Baghdad. It’s a fun game franchise, and you’re the first creator Ive seen in a while that actually seems to enjoy the games and not just your memories of them.

All of us true AC fans should be increasingly grateful for this type of content being recommended and produced, this way we can show Ubisoft and other game producers what aspects really matter to players. With dynamic movement around the scene, chain murders with tools, stylish ways of finishing enemies, etc... Unfortunately, things that were the selling points of previous games now seem more like things put together in a hurry and without any effort. . Luckily it looks a thousand times better than Valhalla, but they didn't buy me the "back to roots" thing.
