I very much enjoyed fighting these mythical creatures
Medusa : But Kassandra is not Perseus, so why do you think she should have the shield with her? It doesn't make sense
Crystal Skull : AC is literally another universe where ancient civilization created humans and 2 groups of fighters know more about the world than 99,99% of civilization, it's perfectly normal that they knew much earlier about the skull
I'm just fine with a good foray into mythology and history as long as it's done accurately.
I wish they would ditch. I would see more of Christian art of facts and folks tales.
I- I'm sorry but this is just impossible to take seriously. Too funny and goody, mythology in this format in AC makes as much sense as Star Wars Tie Fighters in God of War.
The fact that WatchMojo sticks with Kassandra as the canon character in AC Odyssey while mentioning the Minotaur, but meanwhile their gameplay for that is the male protagonist. But then the fact that i can't remember the name of Kassandra's brother off the top of my head shows they have a point. Kassandra should have been the only playable character in that game while her brother is Deimos. I have always used Kassandra in all my playthroughs both on PC and my PS4
Alexio > Kassandra don’t care if she’s canon
Alexios is the main character for Odyssey not Cassandra 😂
the ark of Covenant post be in a small village in Ethiopia
They could’ve left Lear’s Daughters the way it was but expanded the mission. You originally fight and kill Cordelia, but after further “investigation” you can come to the conclusion that it was Regan and Goneril that committed the act. A minor change but it wouldn’t been true to the story
Ditch it ofc.
not the “before we begin” clip at the end 😭
They might be wrong or right… But they're great missions (or fights however u wanna call it) and I hope these kind of characters remain in the future games
I enjoy it
So asides from the Valhalla ones this once again a stupid list.
The Medusa one makes no sense why Kassandra isn't Perseus and thus wasn't given a shield
The Crystal Skulls is fine
Juno and Aita make no sense, you're saying it's wrong because Aita is Pluto in Etruscan and in the games they're married but in myth they're 2 different mythological characters….do you see how stupid that sounds??
I had no idea the god of chaos was called apep.. I still prefer apeps other name tho
In my opinion that's the whole appeal of the Assassin's Creed universe. The intertwining of history and mythology with the fiction of the assassins and templars. Get rid of that and you lose the core AC experience.
From historically accurate, to mythological accurate.
Ass Creed
Actually Perseus used his shield to look at medusa and not get turned to stone because the reflection didn’t make people stone.
