I’m excited to try it out, but it’s not as “smooth” as I was hoping. Right before every jump, he seems to have a tiny burst of speed, like the animation is sped up. I’d rather it be smooth and slower, than fast and kinda choppy.

[@acolytestealth]

Honestly when playing you dont really notice it and it feels pretty fluid.

The speed and fluidity of Basim's moves plus the map design just makes it almost addicting to move around in. It's very similar to Unity in that aspect, just parkouring for hours on end and never getting bored

If previous AC games didn't exist, I'd say this game's parkour is awesome. Nowadays I do think it's style is great, its just the magnetism he has that really makes it all suck.

I just finnished the story of mirage and I think this is the best AC game after the Ezio games. Back to the roots in some way.

The parkour was always the foundation of ac since day 1 (the original assassin creed 😝😎🤘)

I personally think it is way better than the rpg trilogy but can u make a tutorial video briefly explaining how to the Parkour in this game, I'm facing a slight difficulty while executing it like I can't drop down properly instead basim crouches for me and how to perfectly execute the wall ejects

[@caydeisclutch2589]

I'm glad this is the first "review" of ACM I've had a chance to view so far. It seems a bit restricted from a viewer perspective than that of the Dying Light games, or any other games with a parkour-ish system. But, in my experience playing AC games, I think those open worlds are a bit larger and less repetitive (or so much less repetitive that it feels larger) than DL which could play a huge factor in that. I really love games that break away from traditional and monotonous walk, sprint, jump, holster/swap repeat. It's a lot more immersive, imo. And these devs have come a long way since the first AC released. This is how an assassin game is meant to be played.

[@BrHam-ik6jj]

good side ejects!

[@acolytestealth]

Thank you man.

[@Aleks-js6ki]

Remember when people thought its gonna be similar to unity's parkour? I knew it was gonna be the same old snappy parkour animations from the moment I've heard this game was supposed to be a dlc for valhalla, instead they made it into a full game with the same engine, there's so many aspects missing from the parkour on this engine and just because they gave us a new map to make it look good doesn't mean it'll be good, map doesn't matter if the animations are so forced and snappy like it snaps from point A to B and you can't really control any other direction you want him to jump

[@Randomized_tv]

The game itself is just fun. The finishers the way he stands after a finisher. It just looks and feels alot better than valhalla and oddyssey maybe even origins. It just has a smaller budget but idc it is less detailed like the older ac games

[@WayneTheGamerGuy]

i enjoyed ac valhalla and i autually found out theres alot of hidden mechanics like vaulting and parkour rolling, ac valhalla parkour is probably the most advanced parkour in the RPG trilogy so seeing it improved and faster in ac mirage really makes me happy

[@darkghost8301]

This better from ALL of the Assassins Creed Games, Especially better then "Valhalla" and "Odyssey". I have played them, Thats how i can tell, Hope yall AGREE with me too. :)

[@acolytestealth]

I do agree but I also love those game's, they just arent true Assassin's Creed game's.

[@momymishra6227]

[@hcapar]

Why do Ubisoft resists so much in make a AC like the good and old ones?? This new game came as a joke to me.

[@Mary_PuppinsDP]

This game by far has probably the best Parkour map design out of the whole series. Edit: I don't think you guys are getting at what I'm trying to say. I don't think Mirage is the best map overall, I think it's the best map in terms of Parkour friendliness. What I mean by that is unlike the older games, Mirage doesn't just have Parkour elements on the side of buildings, but also Parkour elements in building, on roofs, and it's all nice and tightly spaced together but also spread throughout the map at the same time unlike the older games where Parkour elements would cut short or just stop for a while, you can literally continuously Parkour for a good amount of time because of how much different Parkour elements there is.

[@zoomspilo6798]

I like AC2's Venice more but Mirage definitely has really great level design

[@acolytestealth]

Mirage deffinitely has a good map design for parkour but it isnt in my top 3 even.

[@nerdtom4513]

For me it's AC 2, then Unity and then Mirage but I agree with your statement.

[@caydeisclutch2589]

This clip gave me vibes of the animated Aladdin movie as a child, when I became fascinated by parkour without even knowing what it was lol. Having the option to immerse myself in a more adult variant of that is a win from me as a gamer. It's definitely on my list of games to try soon, since I've recently gone back to open world RPGing, including Valhalla and both Dying Lights.

[@MemoDeemo]

I remember getting excited when they said “the parkour will be based of ac unity” but then they gave up and said “revelations” and they didn’t even make it like revelations all they did was change the jump animation to sort of look like ezios

[@acolytestealth]

Show me where anyone from the dev team said it will be like Unitys? Exactly, no dev said that.

[@acolytestealth]

The only time it was stated that it would be like Unity is a dev from a different team saying it would have "fluidity" like that of Unity which it does in the map design and in the speed, they never said the system itself would be like Unity.

[@acolytestealth]

@@Kane.JimLahey. I never said this parkour is amazing I'm just saying that it isnt as bad as I thought it would be, this game has flaws along with every ubisoft game nowaday's. Ubisoft has failed to nail down what it mean's to be an Assassin since AC3, they keep messing up the philosophy of the Assassin's and Templar's and they also fail to show how Assassin's arent really good people and they're killing people just like how Templar's do but also Templar's are people who abuse power and they have Facist goal's that are awful so in reality the Assassin's are doing a good thing. See Ubisoft fail's to really nail down what it mean's and feel's like to be an Assassin, and I understand that all the new game's are pretty poor quality wise but that wont stop me from still enjoying what's there. Also, Why do you worry about what game's other people enjoy?

[@Flexinciple]

You gotta be more specific. The video show a perfectly fine fluid parkour sequence. What’s your exact issue with it?

[@dayghjfnnakninjui9909]

it is unfortunate that ac1 had better parkour mechanics, what are the chances they'll finally change it back?

[@acolytestealth]

I dont think they'll ever change it back

[@binhaldon5078]

It's def Valhalla's parkour, 1:1. (which is better than Odyssey's ) There are actually some contextual side ejects in Valhalla, hanging rope to whip around building corners, some small obstacles you can vault over with circle/B and a few contextual back ejects. The problem was, Valhalla devs didn't design the levels/towns in a way that allowed you to use these mechanics. Buildings/walls were either too close, or just barely out of reach to do what you wanted. The ejects would work 25% of the time and you could vault over waist high objects 70% of the time. But if the perpendicular platform was an inch too far or close, you would just freeze instead of ejecting. Some waist high walls would be an inch too tall, and you would just get stuck crouching (because vault is the same button as crouch). Playing Mirage, it feels like they took time to make sure all obstacles were just right, and they tweaked how often you were allowed to do these things from Valhalla.

[@acolytestealth]

Agreed

[@KrakenDen]

We need here sound from "Office" Parkour episode ) Parkour! Parkour! Parkour!

[@TexasIronLegend]

Parkour is good aside from the very rare bugs, pauses in between each jump, and using hands for the rope. I hate it when some youtubers cherry pick ultra rare bugs or do intentional bad inputs to make the parkour seem broken.

[@K3ntucky123]

They did really bring back the og ac, but the momentum just need to get used of it

[@Prototype6890]

Just why do the animations from Black Flag look so much more realistic and natural in a game that came out 10 years ago?

[@acolytestealth]

I honestly dont like Black Flag's parkour in anyway, shape or form.

[@Gerchan555]

I don't understand why is it so hard to just improve upon already amazing parkour system from Unity, like why not take advantage of that, Unity has objectively best parkour system of all AC games, Ubisoft are just a bunch of dumbasses, keeping with a tradition to not improve or add anything new in their games, real shame, Mirage would be a great game 10 years ago, it's painfully mediocre now.

[@acolytestealth]

I agree and disagree. Unity is a good system animation wise but it's a downgrade mechanically from AC1-ACRev, for example in AC1-ACRev you can eject out of your wall climb at any point you want to and you can go backward's to the left or to the right and in Unity you have to finish your wall climb and get into a hand hold before you can do your "side eject". Another downgrade in Unity is that there isnt a catch ledge system, I'm aware that there's a breakfall system where you can grab a ledge mid air by spamming your parkour down button but this isnt a reliable system or one that you have much freedom in, like in AC2 a good way to get across a wall diagonally is by side ejecting then using catch ledge last second to grab the ledge, then repeat until you get to where you want to go but in Unity this was removed fully. Unity hold's your hand through parkour but it make's up for it with it's fancy animation's, on the other hand the new parkour system is just fully bland in general, we need the old parkour system back but Ubisoft isnt one for charity.

[@hmmmp]

yeah if it actually worked

[@acolytestealth]

In a way it does you just need to learn it, hell I'm still new to this system.

[@Blacklungs-Sanji]

Parkour is fine quit crying. The biggest issue is not feeling fast due to faster frame rates then the older games, that and being on Valhallas engine is why this game is mid 😂 I loved the ending, and taking the order out, but they just need to bring back unity combat or something like ac2 or 3
