opinion: unity is underrated. i truly fell in love with that game for the graphics, the characters, the storyline, the historical figures… idk i really love that game but i think it’s rough beginning offset its likability

I think it’s more underappreciated than underrated (only because I don’t think any AC game is really “underrated”, if you get what I mean, heh). Unity was the AC game so many fans demanded wanted: the option to do co-op play in one of the most complex and heavily discussed event in history. The game has a great concept, so it’s unfortunate that it’s launch and “controversies” was so poorly received that many people treated like it was the worst like you said.

Personally, I felt that they treated the French Revolution like a background noise. It’s just there. You kind of ignore it because Arno is dealing with personal issues that wasn’t caused by the revolution. Yes, there are missions concerning events that happened during the revolution, but they’re optional and preferable to do it co-op. I think that it would’ve been better had the co-op missions were the main storyline (especially when some of the trailer suggests so).

When coldness or deceit shall slight
The beauty now they prize,
And deem it but a faded light
Which beams within your eyes;
When hollow hearts must wear a mask-

Templar: Mr. Starrick-

[BANG!]

Starrick: I told you not to disturb me!

‘Twill break your own to see:
In such a moment I but ask.
That you’ll remember me! That you’ll remember me…

Henry: Mignonette. Your qualities surpass your charms.

Evie: I’m not entirely sure if that’s meant as a compliment. ‘Love in a mist’, that’s a pretty name.

Henry: … alternately called ‘Devil in a bush’.

Evie: Narcissus: self-love. I should buy a bouquet for Jacob.

Henry: Most unkind, Miss Frye.

Evie: As amusing as all this is, I really should be getting back to work. If you need me…

Henry: I’ll send a bouquet.

Evie: … of Irises.

Henry: ‘A message.’ Indeed.

I have a headcannon that Desmond has a relative or two in New York. He ran away at age sixteen, from (around Rapid City) South Dakota, to Brooklyn New York. That’s probably a pretty expensive trip by its self, and he couldn’t become a bartender until age eighteen, leagly. He would also need a bartending liscance, or to be a barback/ cocktail waiter, to work as one. So untell he was a qualified bartender, he hung with his father’s sibling, who left the order, and covered ties to it after Daniel-

(I don’t know if there’s a second part to this because I didn’t receive it)

Well the story is that he hitched a ride with some girls along the way (he didn’t specify where though) and went road tripping with them for a bit before deciding to settle in New York. Also, he was–or almost–18 when he got the bartending job. There’s an unreleased audio I posted a while back mentioning that he was working several odd jobs for a year or so before he got the bartending job. And yes, you do need to have a bartending license to work, but if it’s anything like where I live, they’re pretty easy to obtain… or pulled some strings so he didn’t need to have one (if the place was shady enough, hahaha).
