I saw him in a clip of the metal band performing, which was also fucking wild. Couldn't tell if it was explicitly AC: Unity based (which would be odd to single out, imo) or just a generally historical outfit. Gonna have to watch the whole thing at some point.

Considering that both were designed with the same historical period and location in mind, that's not surprising. But the hood? And parkour? That can't also be a coincidence, can it?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Parkour originated in France, so it's also traditional.

Someone still had to make the decision to put all of these elements together in one characters.

I don't know why you're getting downvoted. Your take is completely fair. Parts of the ceremony were great. Gojira playing on the side of the Conciergerie was fuckin amazing. But on the whole, I thought the pacing of the whole event was terrible and lacked energy. Plus those fuckin NBC commentators would not shut the fuck up.

They tried to pack in a ton of stuff but didn't really put it all together in a way that pulled me in. Was surprised to see Gojira and would agree they were good. The commentators were annoying too.
