Assassin's Creed is no stranger to other forms of storytelling, but nothing like the Assassin's Creed Gold in the series's matching bookshelves, piles of graphic novels, and the lone blue light of Michael Fassbinder's movies. An eight-part audio drama created and distributed by Audible, with the help of a series of Hollywood talents, pleasantly blends the usual historical pranks of the video game series-it feels like you are merging with key historical characters.
Gold's star cast includes Riz Ahmed in Star Wars: The Rogue One and Buffy Anthony Head, the vampire killer. They are blind assassins Omar Khalid and Apple-loving scientists, respectively. Sir Isaac Newton stole the show. The two jointly solved the fake conspiracy, which left many people's bodies dead. At the same time, in Gold's current storyline, Khalid's descendant Aliyah Kahn (Tamara Lawrence of Innocence) is the protagonist, in familiar faces of assassins, such as the series of firm Shaun Hastings (Danny Wallace forever) .
The story begins in a familiar way-Kahn was poached by the assassin's processor, so her genetic memory can be explored through Animus. Kahn is a poker scam artist with a gold heart. He has developed into a modern protagonist like Assassin & # 39; s Creed. Of course, this is not too much, but we know enough about her life in the past and past journeys, and there is more balance between the present and historical storylines than we have long had. There are similarities in her experience-she was the victim of the recent cryptocurrency bubble, and her ancestors helped Newton investigate a plot to use counterfeit coins to destabilize the British economy. Her thoughts on Khalid's racist face of color today are well-observed.
Just like Assassin's Creed, the real fun lies in the historical part of the story. When Kahn first entered Animus to visit the memory of her ancestors, she was puzzled by the fact that she could not see anything-until she was told that Omar Khalid was blind. So, from a pure audio perspective, Khan heard the past-it was a wise decision by author Anthony Del Col for the Audible series. The idea will never be taken as a head-instead, Khalid's blindness will only make his ability as an assassin more impressive, and the dramatic sound effects of the series are even more important as they represent how his assassins are highly sensory Perceive the world around him.
Assassin Khalid was dispatched to monitor the easily dispersed Newton and ensure he eradicated the root cause of the counterfeit epidemic in England. Riz Ahmed's calm, reassuring tone in Khalid is the perfect backdrop for Antony Head's excited and eccentric Newton-the level of this character follows The development of the series began gradually, especially after his close relationship with the mathematician Nicolas Fatio de Duillier. Introduced later. Although Newton may not be as famous as other Assassin's Creed characters, his description here is a kind of character image-stubborn and mildly improper human-character image.
