They self-admitted they don't go for realism. it's historical fiction

His neck isnt armored

Why are you complaining about realism in a video game?
It's a video game.

Why is Assassins Creed suddenly being criticised for not being realistic?

>international company creates entertainment packages from the genetic memory of dead relatives by plugging subjects into a computer and have them run around in VR experiencing the lives of their ancestors

There may be a larger elephant in the room than fight mechanics, OP

This isn't an argument against a lack of realism in things that do exist in real life and don't have an in-universe explanation for being different.

These are better

that's the sort of thing you get when you're interested in normiebait games.

surface realism only, because normies to this day will be blown away by
>woah this is so realistic
graphic effects and such

>pretending anyone thinks this is realistic
How the fuck are you alive at this point and still not understand that nobody gives a fuck true realism is movies or video games. Even in realistic movies and games it's still elevated above actual realism because actual realism is not as fun or interesting.

Rule of cool always overwrites realism.

Because according to Hollywood armors are made of paper, so an unprotected neck must be made of something even easier to cut.

OK buddy you go ahead and try to chop through bone with a horizontal swing.

>everyone wears brown or grey
>leather """"armor""""
Why do they do this? Especially after Odyssey where the armor and clothing looked decent most of the time.

What if the devs know that it's a promotion for a video game and not real life so they can do whatever the fuck they want to it?

It looks cool. Why not?

>suddenly

Isn't it more like a "suspension of disbelief" problem? Anyway, besides falling from great highs in leaves and haystacks (and gods) AssCreed was grounded, wasn't it? Did they start shooting lasers in the last couple ones?

Was it as criticised as it is now?

>Did they start shooting lasers in the last couple ones?
Are you completely forgetting about the plot about there being an apple that can control reality left by gods? Also the entire concept of accessing your ancestor's memories with genetics is retarded to begin with.

most battles in the past were not fought in a huge melee like this regardless, so even that isn't realistic. it's just movies/games that portrays this.

Very easy.

why do Souls games let you hack away at an enemy wearing full plate and have it die? it's not like swords just cut through armor like butter

>manga as proof
wow I guess ninjas really could summon giant animals out of thin air to do battle by wiggling their fingers really fast

At least they are not wearing horned helmets.

Snap and cutting isin't the same.
Go show me a real clean decapitation like in the pic were a man uses only a small axe, one hand and can do it with one swing

What if you hit the spine on one of the junctures between vertebra, hmm? Ever thought of that? A heavy blade like an axe will do the job effortlessly if it's sharpened.

Undercuts with makeup are the new horned helmets off this era
