Assassin's Creed Introduction: A Leap into History
Now let us cast our minds back to 2007 and reminisce. Ubisoft introduced Assassin’s Creed into the market around the time it released Assassin's Creed. Facebook was on the rise, and the iPhone had recently launched. If you were a gamer in that period, you are bound to remember that remarkable leap of faith. So, what exactly sets this game apart from the rest? Years down the line, it remains one of the most searched games globally. Let's search for the information concealed behind the hood.
The Origins of Assassin's Creed
The Vision Behind the Game
Assassin’s Creed is not one of the games made from scratch; it became a reality due to the hard work of many people. Initially, it was supposed to be a spin-off of Prince of Persia. Ubisoft Montreal had other plans, however. They wanted to blend historical components with sci-fi elements, as well as stealth within the gaming world, and presented it as one unified masterpiece. And, oh my, did they go above and beyond our expectations.
Ubisoft’s Bold Move
Many of you may not have known this, but Ubisoft is responsible for taking a major risk when it came to developing a new IP with a completely new protagonist. Their boldness has distinct advantages and disadvantages, like any other decision a designer makes. Stepping forward with rich lore, beautiful graphics, advanced mechanics, and triumphant visuals of its time, Assassin’s Creed succeeded in fulfilling its goals.
Meet Altaïr Ibn-LaʼAhad: The First Assassin
A Deep Dive into Altaïr's Character
Altaïr was not just another swordsman with crazy skills. He was disciplined, quiet, and had plenty of flaws. His quest was for repentance, learning politeness, and stitching up the reputation of the Assassin Brotherhood. And let’s be real—his stealthy robe and cool hidden blade were just cool.
How Altaïr Shaped the Franchise
Without Altaïr, there’s no Ezio, no Eivor, no Basim. He set the gold standard. His personality and story laid the groundwork for the Assassin's Creed universe. Think of him as the wise, legendary old master every assassin learns from.
The Setting: 1191 Holy Land
Exploring the Three Major Cities
The game is set at the time of the Third Crusade, in re-imagined versions of Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus, which are wondrously recreated. Each city is alive, from the heavy traffic in the markets to the towering and intimidating fortresses. The climb up the buildings is purple adrenaline.
The Impact of Historical Immersion
Ubisoft nailed the historical accuracy (okay, mostly). They even had historians consulting on Ubisoft’s buildings and clothing. The cities weren't just an added prop, but the worlds were characters themselves.
