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!
