Just WHO was he?
maybe memaybe not me

>>143014321death to britannia!
>>143014321>WHO Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès
>>143014321I don't get it. Is it an Assassin's Creed reference?
>>143014540Yes.https://x.com/assassinscreed/status/1816901108968624424
it was kanye west
>>143014321Imagine he slipped off a roof and died mid ceremony like those Russians who climb skyscrapers kek
Joe Biden
>>143014537Kek
>>143014321The lightbringer, duh
>>143014584Realistically how many normal people would have gotten that? lmao
>>143014673AC is one of the more recognizable games
>>143014537based
>>143015073that guy's hood is modernist crap that looks nothing like an actual AC hoodI've played all AC games barring the post-Origins ones, and even I didn't get it
>>143015073The only reason I guess AC was the peacoat and it's france. Looks nothing like the typical assassin.
>>143015073Then why didn't they give him a normal costume that actually looks like it's from the games?That thing looks like he ripped his granny's curtains
>>143014321You were supposed to save the ceremony not to pass the torch to slop again!
>>143015735>>143015897I agree, I meant that the game itself is quite recognizable, better to reference it instead of like RaymanBut I would like him too :( >>143016099Wasn't that badd, I guess they had to do it more neutrally, so it works even if someone doesn't know the games, and so they can say it's either a reference or something original for the ceremony
>>143016099Cuz have you seen the ceremony? They didn’t had quality if a truck hit it with it.
>>143014321ASCENSION OLYMPIUM
>>143014584So how much did they pay for this advertisement?
>>143014321Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo
>>143014321the masketta man
>>143014321Ezio Editore
>>143014537lmao
I don't know but the fact that he remained fully anonymous allows me to turn him into one of the characters from the story I am writing so that's p based.
>>143014321Asscreed's MC
so ubisoft just wasted millions and millions of dollars for an ad you have to look up in twitter?fuck this world
>>143014321Assassin's Creed ahh character
>>143014321he represents us, the anons
>>143015897Because the design is mixed with the phantome de l'opera and the masque de fer
SKIBIDI TOILET BOP YES YESSKIBIDI TOILET KNEES KNEES
>>143014321it was meanon representing 4chan
>>143014321Pissi Cuckitini
>>143014321speed
It doesn't matter who he is. What matters is his plan.
>>143014321The ghost of Paris
>>143014321It was a she
It was the Phantom of the Operahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Phantom_of_the_Opera_(novel)
>>143014321I felt so baited both with him and the horse lady...
>>143014321identical
It’s a mashup of the various AC leads. Didn’t pick Arno because his outfit is ugly as fuck.
>>143014321I thought she'd take off the mask at the end and it would be Céline Dion
>>143019704Should have picked Yasuke.
>>143019512nah there were 2 of them>Two masked figures featured in the Olympics opening ceremony in Paris, first as a torchbearer ran across rooftops before a caped rider galloped down the Seine on a metal horse to deliver the Olympic flag.>The rider, Floriane Issert, a non-commissioned officer in the Gendarmerie Nationale clad in silver armour, concluded her ride at the Trocadero, giving the Olympic flag a majestic entrance before it was hoisted.>Earlier, a mysterious figure wearing a black cloak, white hood, and with their face covered by a dark fencing mask, was heavily featured in the three-hour ceremony produced by director Thomas Jolly, and which included appearances from Lady Gaga, Zinedine Zidane and, for some reason, The Minions.different people
>>143014321El Misterio
Probably David Belle. If it wasn't the french really are grade A retards.
>>143014321
>>143014321MYSTERY NIGGAS
>>143014321However he was, he brought the kino
>>143014321Ubisoft ad for ass creed
>>143021927
>>143019056Based Feldman appreciator
I forgot ubisoft was a french company
>>143014321He is the harbinger of parkour to the Olympics
>>143015073I've played most of the AC games and did not realise this was supposed to be a reference
It wasn't an AC reference, it was a parkour show mixed with theater elements to have a mysterious torchbearer.Perhaps not instantly recognizable but it was a cool idea.
>>143014321final boss of france
>>143022337It is a refetence, ubisoft is a french company
>>143019291>Masked guy dressed on thematic costume do parkour on the rooftop of paris' buildingsFor your average guy it was just something neatFor anyone with half a brain it was obviously an assassin's creed reference, anyone saying that they had to look it up either knew jackshit about some of the most basic things about AC OR are a normalfag themselves.
assassin's creed
What if he comes back and reveals himself for the closing ceremony? That would be kino.
>>143022464I really thought it would be David Belle, you know the guy who invented parcour? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVNpa_q71Bg&pp=ygUdZGF2aWQgYmVsbGUgZGlzdHJpY3QgMTMgY2hhc2U%3D
>>143014513ALL HAIL LELOUCH
>>143014540yes and also parkour originated in france
>>143015735>and even I didn't get itThen you must be literally retarded. Ubisoft is French, Assassins creed is the most famous french culture media product internationally, dude is dressed as an AC character and free running on roofs. You must literally, literally be super retarded.
>>1430233361. That hood is post-modern crap, very misdirective2. Ass Creed hasn't been good in over 10 years
>>143014321The best part of this whole thing, that's what. Legitimately better than the rest of the ceremony
>>143023851kek
>>143014321parkour edgy larper
>>143014321It was David Belle I think. Most famous parkour performer in France who was part of Yamakasi and played in movies like District 13. Highly recommend that movie by the way, he actually performs almost all of his tricks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x98jCBnWO8whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWJHSyjVMY8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVNpa_q71BgMystery nigga was obviously based on Assassin's Creed but the game itself is heavily inspired by parkour and the character Arsène Lupin.
>>143014321It's Captain Jack Sparrow!
>>143022359AC is Canada Ubisoft.French Ubisoft is Rayman and the Rabbids. Very stupid to not showcase them instead of minions which are americans. >>143022483Fair chance it's him. The Yamakasi movie was a massive hit when it came out. It's comm here to say "doing the yamakasi" when referencing parkour kek. Maybe they didn't want to say who he was for the "faceless hero" character but eventually we'll get to know I think.
>>143019089billions, ubishit is desperate
>>143014584in retrospective, unity kind of survived getting the revisionist treatment of ubisoft since oddisey
>>143024847>District B13 Chase SceneLooks kino
>>143014321Satan?
>>143014321Ubisoft will never outdo UnityThis is ARThttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGtzCujoZuk
>>143025851Unity fucking sucked, everything past AC brotherhood did.Actually I take that back, it was all fucking garbage and even AC2 was super fucking boring.
>>143014321Nobody cared who he was until he put on the mask
>>143014321That is Assassin's Creed, from the video game Assassin's Creed.
>>143026454Assassin's Creed is a pretty cool guy.
>>143026454He’s just Assassin. Creed is his group
>>143014321Mix ofYamakasi (french Parkour)Assasin's creed (Ubisoft is French)Man in the iron mask (french myth)
he was all of us
>>143014321Ricochet, former WWE wrestler.
>>143026454Tell me about ass man why does he have the creed
>>143026454Assassin (formerly creed)
>>143014321I heard it was Hulk Hogan.
>>143014321Ubisoft advertisement apparently.Shame, I thought it was an announcement for yet more Elden Ring expansions.
>>143014513Have you even watched the new stuff?I haven't.Looks kinda lame.
>>143023513How is a hood post-modern I hate you faggots
Had to go to bed so if there was a reveal I missed it
>>143014321>>143014540>>143014584>ubi is french>parkour was invented by the french>they helped reconstruct the cathedral It makes complete sense
I know you guys want to hate but that was actually a cool inclusion
>>143029282I can't wait for a Walmart shopper in a scooter waddling through the office of Apple
we work in the dark... to serve the light...
>>143014321joan of ark
>>143014321A bit scary, a bit pathetic. One of the many white nonames. A ghost of the past that has revealed itself to us to be forgotten once and for all.
>>143029907Meanwhile, corrupt politicians... "we work in the light... to serve the dark... in fact, we barely work lol"
>>143014673A lot of people? There was a movie you know
>>143014321He was the last white man in Paris.
>>143029173I don't think there'll be more Elden Ring dlc bro
i thought they would unmask him and it would be revealed to be mbappe turns out it was just some ubisoft slop after all
>>143014537damn
>>143014321the friends we made along the way
>>143014321i thought it could have been david belle
>>143024847Isn't he like 50 by now Banlieue 13 is ancient.I believe this >>143019982 more. Seems easier to have 2 or more people do it.
>>143019512I wish. We would have gotten her glorious tits instead of drag queens.
Honestly probably a homage to assassins creed since ubisoft is french
>>143023513What about the hood?
>>143016099As soon as I saw him, my first thought was assassin's creed. You have to be dumb not to recognise it as an assassin's creed reference.
>>143014321>>143033425Should've given him something red around his waist, so hel looked a bit more French.
>>143014321I'd actually like to know tooWas he meant to represent something? Or just be France Ezio? I don't remember the guy from Unity's name
>>143035071Parkour was created in France, I don't think it has much to do with Ubisoft.
>>143029282Much more sense than fucking minions that's for sure
>>143036868Minions was created by a French company
>>143036868minion are french tho, whats the problem wit it ?
>>143036889partially>>143036890it's fucking silly and has nothing to do with sport, or paristhey surely could've come up with something that made more sense and wasn't partially americansame with music - for the most part it was just a random mix of 90s club music instead of idk, french music? they even played fucking darude sandstorm at some point
>>143037003>french animation movie made by french studio>partially americanhow dumb are you?minions are kino
>>143037091>Despicable Me is an American media franchise created by Sergio Pablos, Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio>Despicable Me is a 2010 American animated comedy film produced by Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment, and distributed by Universal>Illumination, formerly known as Illumination Entertainment, is an American animation studio founded by Chris Meledandri in 2007 and is a division of Universal Pictures>calls others dumb while spewing bullshitjust stfu mutt
