Unfortunately, I am not excited or hyped for another Assassins Creed. I feel that the series is becoming more and more predictable.
For a while, I worked on the concept of having an assassins creed game take place during the era in which Western powers invaded japan, and you as a samurai fought for your country and tradition.Within the story, you are betrayed by your fellow samurai, and banished. While floating at sea, you are picked up by a European mercenary ship. It is there in which you learn the way of the assassin and how to use Western weaponry. Blah, blah, blah, you eventually journey back home to find you home war-torn and destroyed and blah blah blah, revenge. I didn't really go into depth with the story, after learning about the movie "The Last Samurai", my creativity just stopped due to me knowing that the concept had already been done before. However, I did create a LOT of concept art and gameplay mechanics notes, and I'm working on making a blog of some sort to show my concepts for other games.

andy85315d ago

As much as I want it, please dont shadow drop it. My poor backlog 🤣

MetroidFREAK21315d ago

I'll only pick it up if Ubisoft gets rid of the internet requirement to install a physical disc. Release the game complete

Chard314d ago

This seems to be referring to updates to the current steam version. If a remake does get announced it will absolutely be sold separately

Love that we just keep replaying games. Next-gen comes along we’ll get Assassin’s Creed Remake REMAKE…

RedDevils324d ago

These days, it's mostly remake and remasters. The only people that make new games are Indie and the Chinese games companies.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH325d ago

People say they like the old style AC games yet when they made one nobody bought it. I prefer the RPG style AC games better personally so I’ll Skip Black Flag. Never understood why it’s so highly regarded in the first place.

FullmetalRoyale325d ago

Love(d) AC 4. Been replaying it recently, actually. Idk what their price will be for this release, but I can't see spending anything close to full price for it. Maybe years from now when I feel like another playthrough.

Report: Assassin's Creed Black Flag Remake Will Be More Than a Visual Upgrade, New Systems Mentioned

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Remake looks to be all but confirmed, with some first official details being shared online.

-Foxtrot492d ago

Black Flags is great and all but they really should have remade the first game.

Like I said Black Flags is a fantastic pirate game but it's where, for me anyway, it started to drift away from it's Assassin roots and felt like a new IP they were too scared to do without something attached. It's funny because they could have called this Skull and Bones back then or just "Black Flags and it would have done well enough to start a new IP for them. Sometimes I felt Black Flags was held back in some places because it was attached to AC lore, if it was a new IP it would have been fun to continue Edwards adventures in multiple games as he was a really good characters.

RaidenBlack492d ago

Altair's AC1 deserves more of a reimagining than a straight remake ... The game's got pacing issue and is comparatively barren especially since the parkour ability surprise has worn of.

VenomUK491d ago

I loved Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and so did many millions of other people. Ubisoft intentionally reduced the AC element so it was mostly a pirate game that had the broadest appeal.

Ubisoft should not have wasted time making the online Skull & Bones or this remake - it should’ve just made a new standalone single player pirate game that could become a franchise.

anast491d ago

They are doing this because they just have to reskin Odyssey. The first one would take an actual ground up effort.

RaidenBlack491d ago

Odyssey? But that's totally different structure from the pre-Origins AC palette i.e of AC4 in this case.
That'd mean the AC4 Remake would be more akin to the RPG-ACs, which Black Flag was not and I'd definitely dont want that from the remake.
I am skeptical but am not totally dismissing the ^idea either, coz remakes like FF7 have totally reimagined the base game.
IF that's what they end up doing, then please Ubi, dont remake the other classical ACs. I want more of a modern graphics overhaul with some QoL changes, like the MGS Delta or RE4, than total reimagining.

anast491d ago (Edited 491d ago )

They are going to repurpose Odyssey's water environments, islands, and a big part of the animations from the naval stuff.

I don't think they will do a FF7, it's not how they operate. But if they do, I'm with you. I would love to see those games too.

vTuro24491d ago

I had fun with the first game and I loved the setting, but holy shit was it repetitive. I'd be down for a remake but only if they seriously adress that part of the game.

Chard491d ago

I agree to the extent that I want a pirate game uninterrupted by periodic visits to the modern day. Hopefully the remake fixes that

I like Black Flag but I also liked Rogue too bad it's not a two for one deal.

RaidenBlack492d ago (Edited 492d ago )

Wish they remade ACII before Black Flag ... or even re-imagined AC1

RaidenBlack491d ago

ACII >>> AC4. ~ Its the best 'AC' game. Black Flag was a good pirate game, Odyssey is a good mythological RPG game. But are not better 'AC' game.

ReidoN7491d ago

I never put anywhere near enough into Black Flag when it first launched.

Looking forward to giving it another go when the remake launches.

blackblades491d ago

They milking the F outta this franchise

Profchaos491d ago

It's the only thing keeping the lights on at ubi well AC and siege ofcourse.
