Nudity in assassins creed origins
If you are responsible for one of the above issues.
The playthrough I watched exhibited multiple examples of each of these themes and they are presented in ways that are very much geared towards an adult audience. Blood and gore, drugs/alcohol, violence, nudity, language, and sexual content all make the highlights list and for good reason. I recommend that this game is reserved for those over the age of 17, just like the rating says. They play major roles in the story and they are fun to play as. They aren’t just in the game to be eye candy. They are portrayed as powerful and passionate and even their costumes are tasteful and make sense. Also, there is a focus on a couple of female characters in this game that I am glad to see. The only reason this doesn’t receive a 1 out of 5 for the positive message is that there isn’t much question that those you’re killing are the worst of the worst and those who work for them. Murdering person after person in a video game has a way of getting satisfying. The goal is to kill and do it creatively and effectively. Cleopatra has women dancing for her, some are topless, and she speaks to men about spending the night with her and being killed the next day telling them that it would be “well worth it.” Positive Message (2)Īssassination is literally the name of the game here. They are in the background and not the focus of the mission but what they are doing is very obvious. One mission takes you to a brothel in which you see many topless women and even a couple in a sexual situation. Many of the village women are topless and bare breasts are shown while you’re just riding your horse around the game map. While the main characters’ sexual encounters are treated as PG or PG-13 there are multiple instances of nudity and even sexual situations. In the modern day/near future timeline there is adult language throughout including F-, Sh–, D-, and H. The translation is shown in the subtitles, however. Words that would be considered “adult” are used in some of the dialog but they are often (not always) spoken in Egyptian or Latin. The language is interesting in this game.
Killing is, after all, the job of an assassin. Your violence is celebrated and is, in fact, considered the goal of every mission of the game. There is a lot of blood involved in every assassination and some beheadings and slit throats as well during cinematics. There is a stealth element to the game that is meant to reward the player by giving them multiple ways to kill their foe quietly. You kill people in multiple ways including bows, swords, axes, blunt force weapons, and even ships. You take the role of an assassin in this game so obviously, violence is a major part of the gameplay. This lends itself to replayability beyond “beating” the game.Īssassin’s Creed isn’t the best game I’ve seen, the controls seem heavy and the combat is a bit “clunky” but it is interesting and seems to be what Assassin’s Creed fans want out of a game in the series. Origins is an open world game which means you have multiple missions all over the game world that you can complete outside of the main story. The setting and politics of the story are well crafted and keep your attention well. If you’re a fan of history, Assassin’s Creed games are interesting even though they’re obviously based in fiction. Eventually, you make your way to Rome and take part in one of the largest Assassinations in history. In Origin’s you’re working to take out a secret society who is behind the dark times your country is experiencing. The multiple timelines and characters make for an interesting, while at times confusing, story. In this timeline, you are a researcher who is using the DNA of a historical figure to move into the past and become an assassin.
The story is complicated because it is also set in modern/near future timeline. Like other Assassin’s Creed games, Origins is set in a historical alternate timeline in which your character is changing the course of history by completing your missions. The game is set in ancient Egypt around the time of Cleopatra and Julius Caesar. Positive Message: 2 out of 5 Total: 9 out of 20 = Recommended for Adults Only!Īssassin’s Creed Origins is the 11th game in the Assassin’s creed series.
