Watch a Clueless Gamer play Assassin’s Creed: Unity

12th November 2014

I’m not a huge fan of American talk shows, but I must admit to having a bit of a soft spot for Conan O Brien’s Clueless Gamer segments.

His latest video has him playing a preview version of Assassin’s Creed: Unity, and as usual he does a fantastic job of being a dumbass while his actual gamer colleague talks him through the pertinent bits. The video is pretty funny, partly because Conan makes plenty of comments about something every gamer is thinking: Why do people in France, taking part in the French Revolution, speak with thick British accents? Why indeed?

He also mocks the series’ tropes of hay-diving, stealth and corpse-looting in typical Conan fashion, which makes the video a lot of fun to watch.

I’ll shut up now and let you watch it for yourself.

Deon du Plessis

Deon got his first taste of PC gaming at the tender age of 11 when his father bought an 8088 XT, ostensibly to "help him with his homework". Instead, it introduced him to Leisure Suit Larry, King Graham, Sonny Bonds and many more, and Deon has been a PC gamer and hardware enthusiast ever since. He landed his first professional writing gig in 2006 at a prestigious local PC magazine, a very happy happenstance as he got to write for a living about things he loves - tech, PCs, gaming, and everything in between. He's been writing about it all ever since, and loves every minute of it.
