There's a slew of Assassin's Creed games on the way, and hopefully they'll have the tight, purposeful design that made Assassin's Creed II and its sequels so great.
—but in quite different ways than with the Ezio games. The three titles featuring everyone’s favorite Renaissance Italian protagonist were, as mentioned, fairly tightly constructed affairs. They were narrative heavy, yes, but there was real intrigue, and purpose, and certainly plenty of freedom of movement for the time, even with the memory walls in place that gated certain areas until later chapters.
It’s not necessarily just the difference in length that’s the issue. It’s a difference of purpose, of justification for said length. Comparing anything tois pretty unfair, but the differences between Ubisoft’s version of open-world freedom and what Nintendo and Monolith managed are stark. I’ve playedthree times since its release in 2017, at over 100 hours each time. I just praised Monolith’s solo effort,, despite having to spend 110 hours to get to the end of the thing.
takes that long because you won’t be able to defeat any of the late-game enemies if you don’t let the constant assault of waypoints on your map guide your every move for that long., everything still feels more purposeful, more varied, more justified than what’s contained within Ubisoft’s modern Assassin’s Creed games. And it helps, too, that Monolith has proven there are narrative rewards and payoffs at the end of their games.
Which is also one reason why the prospect of more of Sony’s Horizon series feels less daunting to me than more Assassin’s Creed, even if both involve gear and leveling and constant fighting and huge open-world maps. There’s just more going on there, and less that feels like it’s wasting my time without good reason, even when it’s not necessarily ideal—and no one is threatening me with an onslaught of new Horizon games, either.
