Assassin’s Creed: Jade Raymond talks demos, play hours…and Jesus Christ?
Hoping that Ubisoft‘s Assassin’s Creed will have a demo ready for its incarnations on the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3? By way of a recent interview we found between game producer Jade Raymond and Gamersyde, we’ve managed to pick up word on this possibility, along with several other details.
First, regarding the demo – Raymond says there isn’t going to be any. The producer explained that because Assassin’s Creed was a sandbox-style game that spanned three (very) large cities, the developers felt that a demo would not be able to encompass the title properly.
That bad news aside, Raymond did reveal some other juicy details for their upcoming title. For one, the core gameplay will take about 18 hours to finish – that’s a straight play-thru without taking any of the side quests or optional missions. With all the trimmings, however, Assassin’s Creed will keep you busy for more than double that time, at roughly 40 hours.
On a strange note, Raymond also details that Assassin’s Creed creative director Patrick Desilet was thinking of making a game set during the time of Jesus Christ. You can find more details of these info snippets via the 12-minute long interview below. Happy viewing!
