Hi Guys,
As I mentioned in my previous post, I was busy with my semester final and that is why I was inactive in hive. Though I returned after that, I was exhausted from, doing a part-time job, attending my class, writing on hive, and then preparing for the exam. I really needed a break. I took a long vacation and was away from all types of online activity for almost a month. I also left the job. But, now I'm back again and I hope I can share my gaming videos regularly on hive and youtube from now on regularly. I also plan to take a part-time job from the beginning of the following month. Life is tough because of the current inflation situation that is going on in the whole world.
Now, let's jump to the gaming topic. It's been a long since I shared an episode of me playing the assassins creed. To be honest, I didn't have the time to play any games meanwhile, let alone post in hive. In the last period, I showed you guys that I was in the city called Damascus. I was there to complete a mission that was given to me by Al-Mualim. I explored the city, collected memory flags, unlocked viewpoints, saved a few citizens from the soldiers etc. That was the recap of where I was in the game. Now to the current situation:
- Arriving at the Assassin's Bureau:
In the previous gameplay, I finished a mission and the scientists that are using my character to know about the assassins skipped to a recent memory block. That was where I ended the previous gameplay video. Now from the new one, in this new memory block, the game started with me in the assassin's bureau. There I learned about the mission I'm to complete. I was told that I need to eavesdrop at a certain place to learn all the information required to complete the mission.
- A mistake that could've compromised my mission:
On my way back from the bureau, while I was running on the street I mistakenly clicked "2" instead of "w". As you know they're near to each other on the keyboard. in fact the numbers "2 & 3" are just right above the key "w". And key "2" is to draw the hidden blade and to make an instant kill. While I was running on the street and passing by some villagers, this happened and I mistakenly killed one of the innocent civilians. After that, the guards and soldiers were chasing me. I fought a few of them killed some and escaped. It wasn't easy to dodge them, because there were not many hiding points. Even though I found some, they caught me before I could hide. It took me a while to find a proper hiding place and get rid of those soldiers.
- Unlocking another viewpoint and saving a citizen:
After I was able to escape from the guards, I went on to continue my mission. There I found that I was unable to access the location because I haven't unlocked the viewpoints. Then I started searching for the nearest viewpoint and climbed it to unlock access to that specific place.
After coming down from the tower, I saw that some soldiers were teasing an innocent civilian woman. I went there, fought the soldiers and rescued her. The first time I was unable to save her and I died. But, the next time I first used a hidden blade to kill one of them first and then took out the other three with my sword.
- Using the vigilantes to hide from the suspicious soldiers:
In the game, you'll see some people wearing black dresses and they're most of the time standing beside the road in a group. They're the vigilantes and they're allies of the assassins. After saving the citizen, the other soldiers were after me, chasing me. I was supposed to run and hide. But, this is where I messed up. I killed some more soldiers. I needed to hide instantly. Because this whole city is crawling with guards and it's really tough to find a hiding place and successfully hide in it. I then noticed the vigilant standing nearby and decided to use them as shields to hide. They actually don't help you to hide completely like those other places. But, you can blend in with them and wait for the soldiers to go away. As long as you're between them. The soldiers will not notice you.
- Escorting the informer.
Then on my way, I met with one of our informers. He told me that if I escort him to the gates and save him from the soldiers, he will give me important information about Tamir that I need to complete my investigation. So, I agreed on the deal.
On our way, one of the soldiers spotted us and started attacking the informer. Just right then another one arrived. I killed both of them and saved the informer.
After I escorted him to the gate, he gave me the whereabouts of Tamir which was one of the most important pieces of information I needed. I'm about to learn the rest by eavesdropping.
- Eavesdropping to investigate my assassination target:
- Informing the bureau about my investigation results:
On my way there, I was recognised by one of the temple knights. Normally I'd kill that knight, but I wanted to keep out o trouble and skipped him.
killing Tamir.
After reaching the black market where Tamir was supposed to be, I found that he killed an innocent man over nothing. His only mistake was to talk in higher voice with Tamir and refusing to work. You can see his body in the water yet no one dares to help.
After that, I followed Tamir and was prepared to take him out. But, just right then a lady beggar blocked my way and it almost compromised my mission. Those beggars were so annoying, you'll notice it in the gameplay video. they come to block your way every single time you're about to do something important.
- That bagger blocking my way.
- Fighting with Tamir.
- Last words of Tamir.
I'm not telling you anything about this conversation because I want you to watch the gameplay and find it out yourself.
I thought this is the end of the mission. But, the problems only started from there. Now, I was a wanted criminal and all the guards, soldiers and Tamir's personal soldiers were looking for me. There was nowhere to run or hide. I somehow manage to escape the black market. On the city road, I found some vigilant. They tried to help me. I tried climbing to the roof of a building while they block the soldiers. But, for some reason, I got stuck and wasn't able to come down. Meanwhile, the vigilant people were fighting with the people to stop them from reaching me.
But then, I somehow managed to get down from there and saved us by killing the soldiers. Then I searched for a hiding place and escaped from the soldiers that were chasing me. It is now time to inform the bureau about my success.
- Informing the bureau about the mission's success and mission report:
With my mission completed, Now it's time to return.
- Goodbye Damascus City.
I'm feeling like I used a lot of images. But, it seemed like the proper way to explain what I meant in the story. I also uploaded the gameplay video on youtube. You can watch the video to enjoy the gameplay better. I'm sharing it below.
I hope that you liked reading my experience and explanation about this game. I tried my best to explain everything I know and felt needed to be explained. I also hope that you enjoyed my gameplay too. I'm planning to share another video with more details about this game.
