I've played through AC 2 many times and only once I stumbled across a mission inside Lorenzo De Medici's palace.
As a 34-year -old Assassin’s Creed player who has been a fan since the release of AC1 in 2007, I’ve seen the series evolve significantly over the years. Lately, though, it’s been frustrating to hear people claim that Odyssey and Valhalla aren't "true" Assassin's Creed games. To me, that’s simply not accurate. Yes, the protagonists in these games may not be assassins in the traditional sense, but the core elements of the series are still very much intact. Both games feature the iconic hidden blade, and more importantly, they maintain a deep connection to the First Civilization (ISU) lore that has always been at the heart of the franchise. The backstory of these ancient gods, their influence on humanity, and the ongoing conflict between the Assassins and Templars continues to shape the overarching narrative. Since Origins, Assassin’s Creed has embraced RPG elements, allowing for a more expansive world and greater player choice. This evolution wasn’t just about changing the gameplay—it was about enhancing the storytelling. By introducing Greek and Norse mythology, Odyssey and Valhalla enrich the lore in ways that stay true to the series’ roots. The way these games incorporate mythological figures and themes—whether it's meeting Socrates in Odyssey or interacting with gods like Thor and Odin in Valhalla—adds layers to the narrative that tie into the larger ISU mythology. This exploration of ancient mythologies is an extension of the franchise’s ongoing attempt to blend history, mythology, and science fiction. In the end, Odyssey and Valhalla may have evolved in gameplay, but they’re still rooted in what made Assassin's Creed great—deep lore, historical contexts, and the thrilling pursuit of freedom. The series has grown, but it’s still fundamentally Assassin’s Creed.
3:56 Fun fact, if you slow down the cutscene and look at vlad's skull, you can see two fangs, showing he was a vanpire. A little cool Easter egg for history buffs. Although it was speculated that he was most likely vegan during his life.😅
In the vlad prison dlc when you lift the tomb and see the skull you can see that it also has vampire fangs
Last one was amazing
I did most of these side missions. But not all of them. Oh well. Great video.
fun fact vlad grave his skull has vampire fangs
Can't wait i'm so excited for hiding in the Shadows!
Been to and done all of these. I enjoy exploring AC games, so I eventually find stuff like these. The only time I remember there is a Main Quest is when I can't access some room with Treasure just out of reach and happens to only be accessible during or after a Main Quest.
We only notice the ones that have cool treasure anyway.
Vlad DLC is less of a secret with The Ezio Collection For those who had the DLC, it was marked on the map. Not the most secret
Never did a Tomb of the Fallen. Didn't even know there where any
Next do 10 secret locations in zelda games everybody misses.
That weird structure in the White desert in Origins that has the ghosts?
27 minutes ago is crazy
Fun fact there are only 3 secret locations in this list that I haven't tried to find. The first one is in Unity,the 2nd one is in Odyssey, and the third is in Rouge. So, in other words, another misleading title for a video🙄.
I found all of these
...if you bought the DLC. ...if you pre-ordered. Noticing a pattern...👀
Good
