Later on i would get into the novels of the games expected for the first one or origins around 2018 but back in Christmas 2017 i did get to play Assassin's Creed Origins only for a bit but later in 2021 it was fun to play as well even exploring the background of the assassin brotherhood and templars. As i would get into the novels and the lore of assassin's creed a lot of people express their problems with the franchise regarding of the franchise like the killing off Desmond Miles How the modern story lacks of updating and always in the comics and no game set in modern era as fans of the game still don't want but some want it set in modern times like how uncharted watch dogs and lara craft are often set but explore of historical figures or events.
The game still being produced by Ubisoft that made the game back in 2007 which was the first game set of the assassin-templar conflict set of thousand of years ago and the templars been playing the strings of behind close doors and responsible for it crazy i know but now in modern era 2012 and Desmond Miles is capture by Abstergo Industries who are run by templars and is caught in the conflict between the assassins and the templars, i'm not write about the story and the plot of the games but i'm sure you have readed it before but anyways with so many opporuntities that ubisoft have only to miss it a lot and never caring about the games or the fans only the money and not going into the other settings like Napolonical wars American Civil War World War 1 Japan China or other settings maybe around modern era which has been frustrating with and i can't even stress of how much patience or little patience i have with them and after in 2020 or 2021? some accusations regarding of female characters in the game itself or ubisoft which i'm not gonna get into feel free to research.
Modern-era setting is where mostly between sequences before you would interact with the people in modern era back and fourth you name it. The series demonstrated kind of cool but the animus is like vr setting that we have. But outside of the games is the modern-day setting first started in the first Assassin's Creed and would go on for the rest.
Lately in Assassin's Creed we often heard of creative differences from the crew that are working on the project whenever they want to throw in an opportunity towards the gamers that they want but instead choose to ignore it and went on the opposite direction and not letting anyone like a co-director for changes right after the beta test and rush the game for release and didn't have time to fixed it yet everyone is having a hard time to have creatively only the director and executives who refuse to allow it whatever it's the maps and gameplay or any other ideas that they purpose on. I think that the series has a identity problem that they don't know what direction the series should try and not even taking risks only afraid and not wanting to piss off anybody they need to be responsible and take whatever risk if possible which is one of the problems that i have for the series even the narrative of the games, themselves is lackluster that they go backwards likely how the story is being handle of so call professionals who are overseeing the franchise and making sure everything is right on track aside from the troubles that have happen at Ubisoft. But regardless of the series and creativity that they have either try to find new ways to improve themselves or unsure of the moment.
So now that the games are showing no signs of slowing down with the release of mirage coming this year and info of the game looking to be positive whatever or not it's a sign that ubisoft is changing we don't know or i don't know but with them release more games coming soon that i have spoken and saw back than let mirage be release and we can see for ourselves.
