They shouldn’t because it’d be bad, but like, even I have to admit that’s kind of exciting.

Don’t correct me if I’m wrong because I actually do not care, but Basim presumably has the highest concentration of First Civ DNA of anyone ever in the Assassin Brotherhood.

If Ubisoft cared about doing anything interesting, this gives them a lore-friendly route to do a First Civ AC game.

Tbh, I actually respect it a lot.

Gamefreak didn’t shy away from past continuity. They instead used it to mould a pretty good gameplay and narrative aspect of their current title.

As far as retcons go, pretty textbook definition of a bloody good one.

Music is something Assassin's Creed has always nailed when made by a studio that isn't Ubisoft Quebec, but very few games post-Revelations have soundtracks that actively make me nostalgic.

Jesper Kyd and Sarah Schachner truly are some of the best to ever do it.

The ambience of the open world, walking through Ravensthorpe and the various AC1 inspired cities, and the rare moments of narrative brilliance all come to mind when I listen to the game's theme, Kingdom of Wessex, Valhalla Nights, and so many other tracks.

It’s so ironic how the final song in the album is the only song on the album that lives up to the promo and title concept.

It’s plays like the opening to an album that is far more interesting than the one we got.

I cannot believe this is the same person who wrote All Too Well 😭😭

Yeah man, let’s not break down how fame might have changed your relationship with your art or how you deal with potential burnout, that would be too interesting.

Let’s spend time making elementary innuendos that a child could come up with, in an attempt to capitalise on contemporary trends 🫢🫢
