Today’s game is some more Assassin’s Creed 3. After finishing up the modern segment (which was surprisingly short) I headed down to the basement to look at the new costumes the Remaster Provided. They had them on racks that were there in the first game. It made me wonder if they removed costumes for the racks or they added more costumes. Just an interesting thing i got thinking about.

I also noticed Connor’s shoulders were weirdly broad. I don’t know what it is, maybe it’s just me, but for all the free running he does he has weirdly broad shoulders in his assassin outfit. Like its a size too big for him or something. I think it’s just the outfit because i didn’t notice this with any others.

Backtracking too the Modern section, it was surprisingly quick. I seriously wish we got more. I’m not sure how it would work with the parkour, but doing an Assassin’s Creed game in a big city would be awesome. It’s so cruel that we only get this little segment.

I stopped after killing William Johnson. I snuck up to the objective for the bonus goal, but there was this one enemy stuck in the bush in classic Ubisoft fashion. He couldn’t see me for some reason, but it’s hilarious to me that i get bugs like this. I suppose for having paid for it i should be a little upset, but it’s not game breaking so i guess i let the humor of it get to me.

Surprisingly this one Chapter took a long amount of time. I did take a detour to get some collectibles and do some side quests, so that probably affected things, but still. It took a while.

    Is that still the only modern day gameplay segment of the entire franchise?

    Kind of wild that they never revisited the idea.

      As far as I know. There’s the modern day bit in Black Flag/Rogue, but as much as I liked those I can’t really say they’re Gameplay Segments. More so walking Sims with a few collectibles.

      I briefly remember getting to climb around in the modern day in AC Origins but it was really brief

        Oh yeah, the modern era in Black Flag era was pretty meh. Haven’t played any AC game after that so no idea about those.
