Crouch Walking Across Egypt in Assassin's Creed Origins (Time Lapse)

The original recording of this feat happened in earlier in the year. While I was deleting files to recover more space in my hard drive, I ended up deleting the clips before I could edit. So I had to re-record the whole crouch walking feat again.

The route is similar to most of the routes I took for horse riding (northwest to southeast of the Egypt map). I made two edits in the middle of the run to turn off subtitles and to reset a route when I went inside a dead end instead of following the usual route. Another change I made is try not to move the camera as much and keep the destination cursor visible in the center and static. That makes it prettier in the timelapse video.

This is the longest of all routes in my Assassin's Creed videos so far, but only about 5 minutes longer than the sum of all strolling (walking) maps from Assassin's Creed II. If I were playing on PC and set the slow walking option instead of sprinting, this would exceed over 2 hours. I'm not sure if I'll do a video for Assassin's Creed Odyssey, though. That game is huge. The biggest hurdle is the numerous islands. There's more stuff to do in each islands compared to past games. We'll see if I have time.



I'm done.

Riding Across Egypt in Assassin's Creed Origins: War Chariot Edition (Time Lapse)

I'm riding the two-horse drawn war chariot across Egypt from one point(northwest) to the other (southeast). This is the fastest means of traveling in the game with drifting for quick turns. I had to be careful with huge jumps. Unlike horses and camels in Discovery Tour mode, war chariots break easily with falls and high impact.

Unlike the main game, you can't just whistle and call war chariots in Discovery Tour mode. It's mostly a chance encounter with Roman soldiers. Then you have to follow them around until they stop and get off the chariot so you can use it. There are two towns near the northwest portion of the game where you can find war chariots. Once I gain control of them, I had to drive them back to my starting point. They're about the same speed as the eagle flight.



I'm done.
