Assassin's Creed: Unity Introduces Elise

@itwastuesday: "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me."

i'm not sure i can buy this game because if i buy another assassin's creed game and then complain about it... it's like, fooled me 3 times at this point

@krabboss: Let's not get nuts, now. Such a thing would cost Ubisoft billions! I mean, how many people do you think are working on this game? Thousands?!

THE EXPLOSIVE CHEMICAL REVOLUTION MISSION

Unfortunately, the inclusion of a woman character does not make this significantly different from previous entries that I have not enjoyed. Let me play as a templar, female or otherwise, and I'll think about it.

Wow, they managed to animate a woman! Good job!

Couldn't just use her animations for a playable one? No? Okay...

Wood, kid, indeed

So was Elise in a cloak because she is a female character, therefore to hard to animate?

@joshwent: Sadly, I'd bet the over on 30 trailers by release.

The most important part of the trailer was learning that Antoine Lavoisier is (most likely) a character in this game.

I'll admit it is pretty cool music, i'd never heard of Woodkid outside of these AC trailers. They're pretty good at setting the mood.

The trailer was fine until the last 10 seconds. Uggggghhhhhhhhh......

I think this trailer looks all right, but I am still curious about when they will finally announce the last gen only game.

Of course, how many trailers there will be for this game will soon get repetitive. Almost as repetitive as how many of the same "there will be hundreds of trailers for this game" and "women are so hard to animate" jokes will be in this comment section.

Eye candy. Check.

But was she super-hard to animate? I'll bet yes, like, double the work, right?

@alex: I bet they're all really good.

Hmm. Nice CG, tone, and cinematography as always, but that didn't so much "introduce" this new character as it did show Arno Asscreeding around a bunch again with a lady that just appears at the end.

There'll probably be 30 more trailers before launch, so I guess they gotta start slow?

@alex: Oh fergodsakes that's hilarious. :D

For a company that said that playable female characters were to much effort they sure did put a lot of effort into a pointless cinematic.

@mikaelboogart: From the press release:

"Elise will also be featured in a new paperback, also titled “Assassin’s Creed Unity,” by Oliver Bowden from Penguin Random House. The story examines an era when the divide between the rich and poor is at its most extreme, and a nation is tearing itself apart. Told from Elise’s perspective, “Assassin’s Creed Unity” follows her and Arno as they are drawn into the centuries-old battle between the Assassins and Templars. In a world with dangers more deadly than they could ever have imagined, they must fight to avenge all they have lost. “Assassin’s Creed Unity” builds on Bowden’s past Assassin’s Creed novels with millions sold to-date."

"She's also getting her own spin-off novel."

... not sure if serious. >__>

@cloudnineboya: There were several at E3.

Another Assassin's Creed CG trailer, another Woodkid song.

is there any ingame videos of this game yet?
