"Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" has caused controversy on the external network to cut the modern plot!
Recently, French game media Jeux Vidéo Magazine released news that the remake of "Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag" was previously rumored to completely remove the modern plot content, but some of the content that was deleted in the original version is also expected to return, which has triggered discussions on two different views of foreign players.
The old players of Assassin's Creed from the foreign network expressed their expectations for the deleted plot of Edward and Mary Reed, but the news of "delete modern plot" has launched a trend of discussions mainly about Ubisoft. Foreign media The Gamer even wrote a column to analyze the problems that may be caused by betraying the player group again.
Note: This article contains some spoilers for the original "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag". If you have not played Black Flag and want to retain the experience, it is recommended to read it carefully or exit temporarily.
In the original "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag", the player no longer controls the core character of the previous series, Desmon Myers, but instead turns into an employee of Abstergo, responsible for digging out Edward Kenway's memories. However, as the main story advances, players will occasionally break away from Animus, enter the real world to explore and promote the development of modern plots, and a certain modern main mission is also related to "Watch Dog".
The Gamer columnist Jade King said that she supports adding more Edward's grand thief elements to the game, but it would be less than worth the effort if it was at the expense of the original creative design of the game. She believes that part of the players’ nostalgia for this work comes from those unique modern scenes.
Some players have similar views on the discussion. They believe that the modern plot of "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag" is both interesting and occupies a key position in the entire series of narratives. It can be an indispensable part of the narrative of Assassin's Creed, and it is a pity to delete it directly.
Some players also analyzed that since Desmon confirmed his death in "Assassin's Creed: Black Flag", the modern plot lines of the subsequent series have gradually become chaotic, and it can even be said to have deviated from the original track, so it is reasonable for Ubisoft to choose to delete this part of the content. Of course, there are also many players who clearly oppose deleting modern plots, believing that this is the correct adjustment direction.
