Top 10 Cities in Assassin's Creed Origins

[@alabastergreen7444]

This is one of the few games that I can spend hours playing and not accomplish a thing. Just walking around villages and towns and watching people for hours

[@lewisgreen5910]

this is me everyday

[@danielwalker1589]

The sight of Cyrene really makes me want an AC set in the Roman Times.

[@Kanaju]

I would love a game set in Rome itself at its height! I think Codename Hexe is going to be set during the Holy Roman Empire, so maybe we'll see more Roman cities yet! Thanks for watching!

[@tubickkema3009]

@@Kanaju no in the 15th-16th centuries Germans city had no Roman Architecture more.. Hexe likely would play at the Pfalz Region, Franconia, Hessen Region Cities like Nürnberg, Regensburg, Würzburg, Speyer, Worms..only the Pfalz Region was Romanized like Speyer and Worms but its little to find.

[@tubickkema3009]

@@Kanaju A Romanized Time in Germany for Assassin’s creed would only be possible if a Roman Assassin Creed in Germania happened likely Thrid Century or Battle of Teuteburg Forrest. Or a Timeline of Charlemagne-Vikings in Rhine-Moselle Region with roman Ruins Cities like Trier, Köln, Bonn, Xanten and Medieval Cities like Aaachen.

[@tubickkema3009]

Roman Timeline in Southern Italy and Sicily maybe Spartakus Revolt?, Rome during the Golden Ages or during Emperor Nero or Calligula? Julius Cesär Conquest of Gallia? Roman-Carthagian Wars in Northern Italy and Spain, Carthago (Tunesia), Roman Judea or Palestine with Bayek as Protagonist with City Petra. Roman Britain during the Revolt of Boudica. Roman Germania during the Battle of Teuteburg. Roman Conquest of Illyria/ Dalmatia and Revolt of Bato Breuci. What cool also would be a Assassin Creed during the Bronze Age. Troyan War with Troye, Crete, Mykene, Argos at his Golden Ages. Or a Assassin Creed during the Life of Alexander in Macedonia, Babylon, Persia and Persepolis, India, Turkey like Cities of Persepolis, Babylon, Pella, Pergamon, Susa, Miletus, Bactra.

Uuuuh that's what origins is?

[@quackcement]

i wish modern buildings looked as good as the grand structures of Alexandra. i started making digital artwork of modern interoperations of this colorful architectural style.

[@cat_astronaut_]

I know you'll probably not find it very attractive, but there's a village called Yw Huts that has a very scenographic swamp. It really gives the vibes of what was it like to be a poor family in ancient Egypt, far from the white marbles of Alexandria, forgotten by the king...

[@Kanaju]

I just looked it up. The variety of locations depicted is truly impressive. Thanks for sharing.

[@untaloskrayala7273]

It's in the game that city?

[@brianheffernan8982]

Great video. The artists that create these cities are genius.

[@Kanaju]

Thanks! And yes, it's impressive just how much detail and care they put into these environments. Even though most players will probably just run from objective to objective. Thanks for watching!

[@PAXperMortem]

Wow, I never would've imagined the difference in the amount of cities between Origins and Odyssey to be this massive! I was always under the impression that Origins had more urban environments than the latter haha

[@Thebb123]

My first language is Texan 😂 I felt that one bro. Here from NMS content cause of the podcast plug!

[@johnlant1730]

I like to find scenic locations in this game to just chill and drink some coffee.

[@JL-yw4se]

love your videos on ac cities, leaving a comment for the algorithm

[@Kanaju]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

[@cricketandgraham8644]

Hey Kanaju, I wanted to ask if you could make a NMS video about ten (or so!) of your favorite biomes/planets or something similar? I feel like it's strange to request it but it would be awesome 😅

[@Kanaju]

That could be a fun video. I've been trying to put together a comprehensive biome video, but perhaps a top 10 would work better. Knowing me, 5 of them would just be desert variations. lol I'll give it some thought. Thanks!

[@cricketandgraham8644]

@@Kanaju no problem!

[@AshishKumar-ps2ug]

We need more videos like these.

[@Kanaju]

Thanks! 🤠 Don't you worry. I have more planned for next year. In the meantime, I'll have another type of Assassin's Creed ranking video in the next week or two. Thanks again for watching!

[@Biggienye]

Thank you for this video I love all your AC videos and Origins is my favorite so this video is perfect!

[@Kanaju]

Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear you enjoy them!

[@blitzy7961]

Would be cool to see you rank all the regions in the game as well

[@Kanaju]

That's actually a really fun idea. I do need to figure out my next AC video. Thanks for watching and for your suggestion!

[@blitzy7961]

@@Kanaju Sure thing. It was a cool video, keep it up 👍

[@TheOverlord99]

Thanks for doing this man! Can't wait to get in-game to check these places out! Origins was the last one I've owned and I bought and finished the main story and finished most of all the dlc. That game was top notch.

[@davidmartin5802]

Cyrenne was under Roman control at that time. But is a greek city, similar to Athens or Sparta. Maybe except the colyseum, everything inside is greek, greek goods, greek statues, greek decoration in the houses, greek theatre, greek baths, and over that, the greek polis

[@Kynareth6]

Good video. It needs more views.

[@Kanaju]

Thanks for watching and your kind comment. 🙏

[@eternaldarkness3139]

Was wondering where you were hiding. Wasn't expecting Egypt.

[@Kanaju]

I do so love the desert. That's why my NMS settlement is located on a desert planet! Thanks for dropping by.

[@JC23783]

Really looking forward to seeing what Ubisoft brings to the table with AC Mirage. 8th century Baghdad and supposedly they are bringing back Unity's parkour system.

[@RedSetGoYT]

Don’t get your hopes up, every leak and insider says the same thing about mirage: it’s far from finished and it’s taking a huge dip in quality due to ubisofts greed. It won’t come out until fall and will be FILLED with mtx. I’m talking one outfit in the entire game and the rest are in stores. Get ready for unity level jank with Valhalla style animations. Gonna need a miracle for it to just be decent and this is from every person in the industry working for ubi

[@Kanaju]

I'm looking forward to exploring medieval Baghdad as well! Hopefully it lives up to expectations. And Nikolaj, it's good to skeptical, especially with the lack of footage so far, but I'm still looking forward to it regardless. I've enjoyed every city I've explored in the series, regardless of jank or bugs.

[@tubickkema3009]

I think they would be Bagdhad, Samarkand, Persian Mountains and the Assassin Castle and Constantinople as Map in Mirage. What cool would be a DlC for Mirage in Bagdhad when the City was sacked by the Mongols and Destroyed.

[@true_chels]

It's Cyrene for me just for the awe factor when I first set my eyes on it.

[@Kanaju]

I had a similar experience! I had NO idea it was in the game before I discovered it. It blew me away. Thanks for watching!

[@true_chels]

@@Kanaju Thanks for your video. The jaw dropping experience like you said in the video made me nostalgic, because I was absolutely taken aback seeing the perfect Roman City so late in the game.

[@XavierField-wz8fw]

Me personally Hermopolis has got to be on the lists it the perfect mix between poverty and wealth and the scenery with the massive mountain that overlooks it it gorgeous

[@nasibrakal2761]

most ppl hate on Ubisoft but i gotta admit, they have one great world building team

[@Kanaju]

They really do. Lots of love poured into little details that many players ignore.

[@soybi592]

Cyrene is not in Egypt. I think it is the only city in the game not located in Egypt since Cyrene is in Libya.

[@Psychol-Snooper]

Origins is such a beautiful game. It looks like Egypt. The textures look right. Much better than Odyssey (IMHO.) And they even made the deserts unique, and interesting. Pity the galley play is so dead. XD

[@Kanaju]

The world of Origins is an incredible accomplishment and overlooked as one of the best open worlds of all time IMHO. It has an impressive mix of urban and rural environments to explore not to mention its variety of locations and activities all bundled together in a convincing simulation of ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman culture. The gameplay isn't my favorite, but it's good enough to make exploring the world worth it. All that said, I think I prefer Odyssey as an open-world RPG, though I prefer Origins as an Assassin's Creed game. Both worlds offer different unique "historical" fantasies, and both have their strengths and weaknesses. Well, Origins doesn't really have many weaknesses, but you know what I mean. 😉 Thanks for watching!

[@Psychol-Snooper]

@@Kanaju Origins - hours played 332.1 Odyssey - hours played 2,973 The numbers imply I agree. 🤪

[@Kanaju]

@@Psychol-Snooper Hard to argue with the data! lol You have way more than me on both games, but I also have significantly more hours in Odyssey than Origins. It's a bigger game. 🤷‍♂️

[@Psychol-Snooper]

@@Kanaju The numbers make more sense if you factor in that I'm one of those "doesn't fast travel" players. Can you beat my 1371 hours in NMS?

[@Kanaju]

@@Psychol-Snooper Ah, that does make more sense. And believe it or not...nope. 🥴 I actually have less than a thousand in NMS, I think. I don't often get to play as much as I'd like. 🥲

[@Ma1q444]

Looks amazing

[@Kanaju]

Thanks for watching! I agree, Ancient Egypt is stunning to explore.

[@YesNo-yl6ws]

Thanks and thanks for watching!

[@cat_astronaut_]

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Kanaju]

Thanks for watching!

[@tubickkema3009]

Many Cities were not in the Game especially in the Coast Regions Romans and Greeks build many Cities there. And in the Right Bank of the Nile there wasn‘t only Sands and Mountains but important Egyptian Cities like PI-Ramses II..

[@Kanaju]

Yep, compromises were definitely made. Still, I'm quite impressed with what they were able to create, both as a video game and history-inspired simulation. It'll likely be a long time before we see anything close again. Thanks for watching!

[@tubickkema3009]

@@Kanaju yes you have right but AC Odyssey was also very impressed. I think 2025 will come Assassin Creed Codename Red (Japan Setting) it would be a open Game again. Now we need to wait for AC Mirage but they go back to the roots with Mirage it is in Bagdhad.

[@avinandanmondal4017]

Why did u say many player have never reached cyrene? Isn't main mission set up here?

How do you do that 1st person POV walking simulation? 😮

[@Kanaju]

In the Discovery Tour: Ancient Egypt mode you can look around in first person! It's a pretty cool perspective to walk around those ancient cities. Thanks for watching!

[@Engille967]

Great list. I only disagree with Letopolis. It was a regular city covered in sand for me, it did not even have to be in the game imo

[@Kanaju]

Thanks and fair enough. I suppose I'm a bit of a sucker for buried cities. Haha Thanks for watching!

[@Nico.501.]

Sorry bro, but you are wrong. Cyrene not a Roman city! Ancient Greek: Κυρήνη. The city was founded as the ancient colony of Thira in BC. 631. It soon developed into one of the most important cities in the Hellenistic world! Alexandria and Cyrene were Greek cities! It was not built by the Romans! The Roman Empire - after the death of Alexander the Great - took over a great deal from the Greeks! Architecture, philosophy, culture, etc. In the game AC: Origins. In Alexandria and Cyrene, residents speak Greek! Watch it better bro!

[@Kanaju]

While it may have been founded as a Greek city, Cyrene became a part of the Roman empire in 96 BCE and the game takes place circa 49 BCE. It features Roman architecture and amenities such as bathes and its colosseum. Much like how New Orleans was founded as a French colony but is now considered an American city, even though many residents can speak French. The city is depicted very intentionally as Roman in the game, so that's what I spoke about.

[@Nico.501.]

@@Kanaju Roman architecture is almost the same as Greek. As I wrote, the Romans took over a lot from the Greeks, including architecture, "gods," and much more, it's a historical fact. Look at Syracuse in Italy. When it was already a big Greek city, Rome was just a village! Cicero said: „ is the largest Greek city and the most beautiful of them all is ”. I understand what you are writing, but Cyrene was originally a Greek city, not Roman! Yes, it became part of the Roman Empire, as did Syracuse, but it still made Greek cities, not Romans! It was originally the capital of the ancient province of Kirenaica (Cyrenaica), where hundreds of thousands lived. The temple of Zeus dedicated to the sun god was larger than the Parthen in Athens and proclaimed the power of the city. Cyrene was also the seat of a hedonistic Greek philosophical school. It was one of the largest cities in Africa in the BCE 4th century, at which time it was also nicknamed Athens in Africa.

Enjoying the Indian music in the background of a video about Egypt 😒😒😒 It’s all foreign right

[@Kanaju]

I love Indian music! I listen to filmi almost daily. I couldn't find any no-cost, royalty-free Egyptian music that fit the energy of the video at the time, so I went with "Bombay Summer" since it fit the warm vibes I was looking for. It's a video narrated by a Mexican-American dude talking about a game set in Greco-Roman colonial Libya and Egypt made by a French-Canadian developer, published by a French company, with Indian-inspired music performed by an Englishman playing in the background. Like you said, it's all foreign. 🤷‍♂️ I know you mean well. Thanks for watching. What did you think of the actual content of the video?
