The end credits inAssassin’s Creed Shadowsare two hours long.

This is a game thatconjures up extreme emotions, with every element of it dissected and debated to death.

Well, the answer is, pretty gosh darn long folks.

Protagonists of different Assassin’s Creed games.

It’s longer than Alien and The Thing.

Two hours is, as you first assumed, extremely long.

The stylisation of Assassin’s Creed Shadows' creditsisunusual.

But then, there are other caveats you could apply to other credit sequences.

Red Dead Redemption 2’s is interspersed with artistic screenshots of the game, adding to the runtime.

Shadows could have condensed the credits with a different style, but only so much.

ExcludingMirageas more of a smaller spin-off, it has been five years sincethe last Assassin’s Creed game.

It’s good but not great, polished but not perfect.

That’s why these long credits sequences worry me.

It has the budget and the talent, so why are the performances so inconsistent?

Itdoes not seem sustainable.

That the obvious bad news of people losing their jobs clouds your feelings of the industry as a whole.
