[fanworldbuildingfun]

I have finally surfaced from the deep waters of Baldur's Gate that had me drowning for the last few months

And so, I have moved on to Assassin's Creed: Mirage

It's interesting how much it ifeels both like AC1 and AC: Origins at once. Yet you can still tell it was supposed to be a Valhalla DLC - the movements, NPC behavior (unless they are the named ones), even, to a point, the environment - reminds me of Valhalla

And yet they somehow managed to fit the mission style (at least so far) that resembles ACII into it. And finally! There is way more clutter that you can climb all over

Now

To the story itself

Baby Basim is adorable and should be protected at all costs. And should not be allowed to go without a beard

Mind, I'm not even done with the first major assassination - so that may well change yet. But right now? He reminds me of a mix of Ezio and Bayek, leaning more towards Bayek. Which makes my Bayek-loving heart beat faster.

But you can definitely tell he is his own character, still. For one - I don't think I've ever spent as much time pickpocketing people as I did here. Just going around Bazaar and nabbing the shiny golden pouches? Feels natural with Basim. And fun. I already have the achievement for it, one play session in

Stealth is another thing entirely... I'm not sure it's because I switched to a narrower keyboard recently, or is it me being rusty with AC games - or maybe even because it's intended as such. But Basim definitely feels like a glass canon. Parkouring? Assassinating? Those feel VERY comfortable, even without any substantial long-range weapon (like the bows we had in the three previous games). There are plenty of places to hide and plenty other options to use instead of taking the direct fight. But direct fight? I'll have to try and change the keybindings for dodge and parry just to make sure it's not due to keyboard - but direct fight feels lousy. Not because you can't do it, but because Basim seems to take so much damage

I'm very eager to see how Caravanserai mission will turn out

Part of a piece I’m working on but I was proud of this Desmond ;-;

#Assassin's Creed #Desmond Miles #Did I read “DIonysus Desmond” in tags there #Because yes #Also - several other versions #Like “Desmond is child of Aita and Juno” #Or “Apple is a phone into the past and Uncle Hades is a busybody” #Good times #...I have a sudden odd urge to play Oddysey again and I wasn't even that much of a fan of that one

A silly comic why William Miles was kicked out of the Brotherhood. 😆 Bayek has no tolerance for abusers.

basim got to know william through desmond even if desmond doesn't remember him

#so this means that desmond gets to be aita’s sage #but desmond’s sage-ness gets whacked by his isu:human gene ratio#and if aita knows about desmond #that would mean all his other sages#who received his memories #would know about desmond #that would change bartholomew’s actions to edward kenway #and even their whole priority #from juno to desmond #would this make juno stop from getting desmond killed? #and change her plans #to make desmond remember all of aita's memories? XD

I admit that this is not what I have been thinking when I wrote that post. In fact, I was thinking more along the lines of "Aita Sage stalking Desmond" but by Isu, I like your version more

Granted, I would also like to see how Mirage played off the Isu taking over/communing with their host. Just on top of Odin/Eivor experience. Because I meant it when I said Aita's aim was to end up with Desmond - either as host or companion. Consider it a... Twisted kind of crush/care?

It would be even more interesting if the Sage memories start to awaken in Desmond AFTER he is kidnapped by Abstergo. First, to do as we do and tormen out dear with even more doubts as to his sanity, and second - because of the ample opportunity to have Aita seethe in rage. Maybe subtly take over and do something to animus?

Speaking of - it WOULD change the other Sage's actions towards Desmond's ancestors - but I'm not sure it would be too big a deviation. For the simple reason of - certain things still need to happen, as far as Aita knows, for Desmond to be born. Maybe less outright betrayal, more pigtail pulling? However - imagine the memories glitching midview because suddenly the rest of Sages got memories of Desmond and the timeline is adjusting on the fly. Oh the shock, oh the terror of all and any techns taking care of Animus

Interestingly enough, I am of teo minds of whether Juno would work to save Desmond or not. On one hand - she is the type that seems like she would, given how much she did to keep him alive. Seeing it as the best way to get her spouse back, up to and even omitting referring to Desmond as, well, "Desmond"

On the other hand - the first opportunity for them to truly meet would be in the Vault under Vatican, and I can see Aita taking sharp offence to her trying to control "their" body. That may or may not be a catalyst to fallout, wherein Aita is more invested in keeping Desmond than rekindling... whatever, with Juno

A terrible thought visited me today and would not leave. Thus, I am left with no choice but to inflict it on others:

Elijah was born an ordinary-ish boy

But instead, we have a convoulted Aita/Desmond, wherein Aita's thoughts started to stray in all the worst ways when he witnessed calculations. And Desmond's role in them

Reaching modern times has been the goal: agreeing to Juno's initial experiments and then, to take the mead - was all just the means to do so

#Assassin's Creed #Desmond Miles #Aita #Juno #Isu bullshit #Family drama? Yeah let's put it like that #I'm kind of curious of how the other Assassins/Templars would react to it #I think Vidic would have a ball #And then have an accidet because I can also see Aita being a vindictive bitch #I also think Lucy situation might go differently - and I don't just mean stabbing #AND WE HAVE ONE MORE FOR “KILL BILL” CLUB

Desmond, hugging Elijah: I don't know why people say parenting is hard, I just do the opposite of what William has ever done with me!

Not pictured: *Ezio and Ratonhnhaké:ton trying to stop a very angry Altaïr from resuscitating just to punch William in the face*

love how you all enjoying some hot basim have some closeups 😘

Please hear me out: fashion intervention but Bleeding Effect style. In other words: Assassins of the past taking umbrage to modern Assassin garb

They understand the nessessity

They also have issues accepting it

#Assassin's Creed #In which Bayek - Ezio - Arno trio bevome an absolute menace

[fanworldbuildingfun]

I've definitely posted about this before, but I'm still obsessed with the fact that Haytham is wearing 1750s style clothes well into the 1770s because he's an OLD MAN. He's OLD and UNFASHIONABLE. Can't be assed to wear anything else, I love you sir

#Assassin's Creed #Assassin's Creed III #Haytham Kenway #Imagine one if the templar recruits seeing Haytham - gasping - and calling for an emergency fashion intervention #Because they can't have their head honcho looking like that #“You are the face if the Order master Kenway sir!” #And you know Birch will be there nodding along #Shay is facepalming in the cirner #But also trying to give advise (which involves too many buckles to be practical)
