Assassin's Creed should always have a serious tone- (Hot Takes Series)

September 9, 2026·3 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Usually, an IP will tell you what tone it should be. An Assassins' Creed story based on its DNA, I would think, should always be serious with moments sprinkled throughout that can be more light-hearted, funny, etc. Seems as if the franchise has lost sight of this for a while now and it can really make for an awkward playing experience. In this Hot Takes episode, I explain why the games and stories of Assassin's Creed should have a more serious tone. Thanks for listening and stay tuned for more (random) Hot Takes!-The Hooded Shadow
