Eps 21: Assassins creed Vietnam concept and idea

— Idea and project and concept

The podcast discusses the potential concept and idea of an Assassin's Creed game set in Vietnam. It explores the rich historical and cultural backdrop of Vietnam, considering periods such as the ancient times of the Trung Sisters' revolt, the feudal era during the reign of the Nguyễn dynasty, or even the more modern context of the Vietnam War. The hosts suggest that the dense jungles, complex political landscape, and rich mythology of Vietnam would provide diverse and engaging environments for gameplay. They also discuss how the series could incorporate traditional Vietnamese weapons, stealth tactics suited for jungle warfare, and the possibility of exploring the perspective of local freedom fighters against foreign invaders, thus fitting into the overarching Assassin vs. Templar narrative. The idea challenges Ubisoft to innovate while staying true to both historical events and the core elements of the Assassin’s Creed franchise.

Imagine stepping into the shoes of an assassin during the tumultuous era of the Vietnam War. "Assassin’s Creed: Vietnam" could offer an unprecedented blend of historical intrigue and visceral jungle warfare. The dense, treacherous rainforests of Vietnam would serve as the perfect playground for stealth and parkour, demanding new levels of ingenuity and adaptability from players. Picture navigating the intricate network of underground tunnels used by the Viet Cong, utilizing them for covert operations while evading enemy patrols. The moral ambiguity of the war could be captured by thrusting players into missions that blur the line between right and wrong, exploring the complex socio-political landscape through intriguing characters and layered narratives.

The protagonist could be a Vietnamese native, part of a clandestine brotherhood fighting against corruption infiltrating both sides of the conflict. This opens up the opportunity to delve into the rich culture and mythology of Vietnam, infusing the game with unique weapons, outfits, and skills inspired by local history and folklore. The war-torn cities and villages could be meticulously recreated, highlighting the stark contrast between the bustling urban life and the isolated, harsh rural settings.

Additionally, the game could incorporate authentic guerilla warfare tactics, leveraging the environment for traps and ambushes. Imagine laying low in the dense foliage, using a makeshift bamboo spear, or utilizing the Ho Chi Minh trail not just as a historic artifact but as a strategic advantage in gameplay. The inclusion of period-specific music and the emotional weight carried by wartime radio broadcasts could add further depth to the immersion, all while maintaining the parkour and assassination elements the franchise is known for.

Engaging side missions might include uncovering secret CIA operations, rescuing prisoners of war, or sabotaging enemy supply lines, each designed to reflect the gritty reality of the time. The overarching narrative could critique the impact of international politics and illustrate the human cost of war, offering a mature and thoughtful experience. The incorporation of traditional Assassin’s Creed elements—climbing, free-running, layered conspiracies—set against the backdrop of one of the 20th century’s most controversial conflicts could make "Assassin’s Creed: Vietnam" a groundbreaking addition to the beloved series.
