Assassin's Creed (series)

***Assassin's Creed*** is an action-adventure videogame series, developed by Ubisoft, beginning in 2007 with ***Assassin's Creed***. Spanning multiple games, books and movies, the series is known for weaving historical settings into its overarching storyline of a shadow war between two factions; the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order.

The franchise is the favorite series of the founder of **Glitch Hunter**, **Adam Robertson**.

At first intending to simply play through each game, Adam set himself a challenge when the latest game at the time, *Assassin's Creed: Valhalla*, was announced. Deciding to make *AC* his priority for GH until he finished *Valhalla*, he hoped to finish the stories of all the main games before it's release. However, despite his efforts, he only managed to make it to ***Assassin's Creed: Syndicate*** before *Valhalla*'s release.

So far, Adam has completed the story modes of ***Assassin's Creed***, ***Assassin's Creed II***, ***Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood***, ***Assassin's Creed: Revelations***, ***Assassin's Creed III***, ***Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag***, ***Assassin's Creed: Rogue***, ***Assassin's Creed: Unity***, ***Assassin's Creed: Syndicate***, ***Assassin's Creed: Origins***, ***Assassin's Creed: Liberation***, ***Assassin's Creed: Freedom Cry***, ***Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China***, ***Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India*** & ***Assassin's Creed Chronicles: Russia***.

## Adam's Marathon

On April 30th, 2020, Adam watched the announcement trailer for *Valhalla,* and he decided that he'd complete his playthroughs of all main series *Assassin's Creed* games in anticipation for the game's release. This marathon began the same night, with the third episode of his series on the original *Assassin's Creed*. At first, Adam would only play the game on Saturdays and Sundays, but soon realized that this wouldn't get him very far into the series. He would then make his uploads more frequent during the week, which helped somewhat. It was only till the last episode of *Assassin's Creed II*, and the beginning of the *Brotherhood* playthrough, that he made the final change to his schedule; daily uploads.

Due to making the switch to uploading daily, Adam began to make rapid progress through the series, and he began to have hope he'd finish the series. However, the exhaustion of doing nightly work for GH began to hit Adam, and his performance for the games began to suffer as a result, most notably in the 5th episode of his *Unity* playthrough, when he snapped after dying in a mission, and committed a 'rage quit' from the game.

Despite feeling exhausted, Adam pushed on with his series, completing *Unity* and moving onto *Syndicate*, thinking it would be an easy finish. But he had forgotten two things; the game's Sequences are *long*, and Sequence 8, the penultimate Sequence of the game, is locked behind a secret objective; 3 Boroughs of London need to be liberated for the Sequence to be unlocked. These, coupled with Adam's growing sour attitude due to his exhaustion and constant failures at missions, didn't help matters, and eventually, 2 days before the release of *Valhalla*, he admitted defeat, and promised to at least finish *Syndicate* before calling off his work. However, this didn't happen, as he put the series on hiatus after that episode, and took a small break (beginning on November 9th) from Glitch Hunter to recover from the marathon, eventually returning to the channel on December 30th with the 1st episode of his *Slime Rancher* playthrough. At the time of admitting defeat, *Syndicate* had 6 episodes.

Despite failing his goal with the marathon, Adam is satisfied with his work, as he said to **Scott** that he wanted to at least finish *Assassin's Creed: Rogue* before finishing the series. He has since returned to the series after a second small break, his passion for *Assassin's Creed* restored after taking some time to play other games, most notably the *Alice series*.

Adam's efforts to complete the series, futile they may have been, have even gotten respect from his fellow Glitch Hunters, with Scott saying on one occasion; *"He done really really well. I'm quite proud of him."*

During his marathon, Adam completed the stories of ***Assassin's Creed***, ***Assassin's Creed II***, ***Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood***, ***Assassin's Creed: Revelations***, ***Assassin's Creed III***, ***Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag***, ***Assassin's Creed: Rogue*** & ***Assassin's Creed: Unity***, over a total of 62 episodes, thus making *Assassin's Creed* the franchise with the most episodes on the Glitch Hunter channel, despite Adam not even coming close to completing the franchise.

## Trivia
