- Let's visit the famous Pathenon of Athens in the discovery mode for Assassin's Creed Odyssey! In this video I provide a guided tour of the site while discussing greek architecture, religious practices, mythology, and daily life. I really loved doing this educational tour in a virtual Parthenon and do home to make more content in Assassin's Creed Odyssey Discovery mode.

Such a greate idea of showing ancient cities through late Assasin's Creed games, they did a tremendous job here. Looking forward to getting more of those!
I am really really excited to do more of these tours as it just comes to life when you can walk through the locations
@@InvictaHistory I would love them :D
I agree. There it is done
@Andro mache wow ! What other buildings do they have that are similar to ancient Greece style ?
@@InvictaHistory Please do! I loved this video. I rarely watch videos of this length on KRplus but I was engrossed by this one. I was disappointed when I realized it wasn't a channel series.
I really appreciate the amount of detail that the designers went into. Frankly, I think this should be used in history classes to get these kids excited about history.
Zach Sanchez that’s what I said to the class
I agree!
That would demand some heavy computer budget for the schools :P But I guess the kids can do it in groups.
It is great and all, but it is still a game. Although fairly accurate through scriptures and ancient texts, it is not 100%, and some subjects were added for the flair of it being Assassins Creed.
In the end, I love history. I am thoroughly enjoying this game.
@@fyivid videos like this maybe
Mainstream media: Video games causes violence.
Invicta: Hold my birds-eye eagle.
But there's assassin in the name of the game! It has to make gamers assassin's! /S
mfaizsyahmi. You mean he causes more violence then
@woollimy I would say europa universallis is
GREEKS ARE NOT BROWN PEOPLE
Anton Drexler they have olive skin
31:50 The water in the pool before Athena Parthenos had a function, not just aesthetic. It was used to raise humidity inside the temple so that the ivory of the statue wouldn't crack or get damaged.
Was thinking exactly the same thing. Glad you pointed that out to viewers. 🙂
God the Greeks were so smart, that's awesome
@@AlexM-mj3sq Greeks are incredibly smart! For example, not only did they discover the world was round, but a Greek man named Erastothenes accurately calculated the circumference of the entire Earth by using shadows, wells, and wooden poles around 240 B.C.E.
It was only during the dark ages after the fall of Rome that people lost all of the scientific progress before them and would have to rediscover it all. Imagine where humanity would be if we had continued without loosing 1,000 years of scientific progress!
@@aristosbywater9605 I don't quite agree. I've seen that general narrative debated many times.
@@MH-sm5qk you can't argue with accurate math. The evidence is clear based on a 4,000 year old document that states the mathematical equation used to calculate the circumference of the Earth. Very accurate as well based on the result.
All the evidence is there, believe it or not
Just some addition/correction, coming from an archaeologist.
-The small statues were usually used as offerings to the gods and they could either represent the deity itself or just a random women/men, often represented as giving an offering. Painted pottery was also a common offering, most probably with some sort of food inside.
-The sanctuary of Artemis (Brauronia) hosted the same cult of a sanctuary nort of Athens
-The Erechteion isn't supposed to be there as its construction started in 421 BC, 10 years after the game takes place; also, it hosted the cult of Athena Polias, the protectress of the city; in its place there used to be a temple dedicated only to her, but it was destroyed by the Persians and the Athenians sweared to never rebuild it.
The statue of Athena hosted inside is supposed to be made of olive wood.
-I believe the bull is a reference to Theseus, the most important Athenian hero who captured a bull in the area of Marathon.
-the statues decorating the Parthenon were in painted marble, not bronze.
-There aren't supposed to be any other statues inside the Parthenon apart from that of Athena, not until Roman Times
-The pool inside the temple was built to ensure the right level of humidity so that the ivory used to sculpt the goddess' skin wouldn't crack.
Thanks! Also a more anthropological point-I don’t believe we would have seen all these wealthy well-dressed women walking around exposed and unaccompanied. Upper-class women in Athens were largely confined to the home and when they went out they covered their heads and at least part of their faces.
There are also many statues which are staright up fantasy or some reliefs or statues taking out of context. Like on the base of a statue was a relief from a tomb stone.
@@sazji Yep, life for women in ancient Athens was more reminiscent of life under the Taliban than under modern democracy. Plus there would have been regular animal sacrifices and even the occasional human sacrifice (pharmakós) during such festivals as the Thargelia. The Classical world has been so idealized for so long that many people assume that places like Athens were egalitarian paradises, which of course is far from being true.
Very insightful. Thanks.
@@valmarsiglia compared to much of the rest of the world at that time and previously, that's exactly athens was. we've come a fair way since then, but we have a long way to go still before we can call ourselves truly civilised.
I'm from Athens and I have to say thank you for showing to the world our culture and our past 😊
Go to Delphi. From what ive seen in the game they put a lot of effort into getting all the trophies, tripods, statues and temples right.
Dimosthenis Karamparpas but overall the game is accurate or no?
Dimosthenis Karamparpas great point and I knew that and that’s why I was wondering while playing this game. So overall as a game though you would approve of it? I live in America so I wouldn’t really know. Also I’m curious because I like to explore and gain knowledge in things in life and I hope to travel to Greece one day.
Delphi used to be great. I love the place.
Cool game
VERY STRONG FANTASTIC MOVIE. MISTAKES AND MISTAKES. Read my short comment today
It looks remarkably like the real place. Blew me away and I hadn’t been to Delphi for like 6 years
I always wanted to visit Athens . Growing up I ain’t have much; but I have big dreams. Now I have all the resources I wanted and I want Greece to be the first country I visit abroad. When I get there, on the very first day I will climb the Acropolis and watch the orange sunset while crying tears of bliss. I love Greece and it’s people.
It doesnt look like this anymore
Ciao! I come from Italy and have been following your videos for a long time, which have always had an interesting approach. But you surpassed yourself in this. You have turned a video game into a real place, displaying it with a guided tour. What a conceptual leap!
If you haven't tried it yet I highly recommend the game. I've been having a great time with it from a gameplay perspective, and they recently added this Discovery mode which is more of a self guided tour of ancient Greece. It's free if you own it or you can get it as a standalone product.
YES , BECAUSE WE ARE THE MOTHER OF CIVILISATION AND THEY HAVE GOT INSPIRED .ONLY THAT THE STATUE OF ATHINA WAS INSIDE THE PARTHENON AND NOT OUTSIDE ( MADE BY FIDIAS , FROM COLD AND IVORY )
@@panayotispanayotis1901 it is there in video, inside at the back of Parthenon. Watch entire video. The one outside was there too but was made of bronze. smh.
@@panayotispanayotis1901 there were other civilizations at this time such as China and India...
The owl on the banners at 6:16 is also depicted on (some) Greek euro coins. €€
Ive had antique coins with that owl on too. They are cool AF, but often pricey :/
Yes it is on the 1 euro coin that greece mints!
They were also depicted on drachmai coins for over 2500 years until they chamged it for the euro in the 2000s. So its an homage to continue the old tradition .
All Greek euro designs are beautiful, in contrast to the countries who just put politicians and royalty on their coins. (imo)
@@RomanCourier you should see the drahmas.. they looked cool af
We watched the video while visiting the Parthenon! It was great!
No
@@HondaCivicsisedan ????
Lucky you guys. Been there many times it’s an amazing site 😘
ONLY THAT THE STATUE OF ATHINA WAS INSIDE THE PARTHENON AND NOT OUTSIDE ( MADE BY FIDIAS , FROM COLD AND IVORY )
@@panayotispanayotis1901 There were two statues of Athena, one inside the temple, Athena parthenos (maiden) made by Phedias from gold and ivory and the other, Athena Promachos, was a colossal bronze statue of Athena sculpted by Pheidias too, which stood between the Propylaea and the Parthenon.
When you live in Athens, you have visited this place numerous times but you hardly recognise it. They knew how to impress
@Megas Pantelos Are you serious? Its like asking the Egyptians to destroy the pyramids and build new ones just because they look old after 4000 years. Acropolis and parthenon are worlwide known not because their architecture characteristics but because the history behind them. If you want to see the Parthenon in its former glory go to USA where they copied it or invent time travel you genius. I really hope that you are not Greek and if you are you are the new definition of unworthiness.
@Megas Pantelos ότι θα έβρισκα άνθρωπο να υποστηρίζει την διάλυση της Ακρόπολης και την επαναστυλωση της δεν θα το πιστευα
Έτσι ήταν η Αθήνα εχει περάσει πολλούς πολεμους και καταστροφες
@Megas Pantelos You have no respect for Athenian people because their Government won't destroy ancient sites?
Does it have the cliff steps on the north side of Acropolis with the Klepsydra underneath ? I'll be really impressed if there are !!/..
18:31 Invicta: The virgin cult over there
Me: Hey leave me and my friends alone!
AKA Fortnite.
lmao
@@benisrood I actually am a volcel now but for a while was an incel admittedly.
Darn Chad cults…
fun fact! virgin in the context of ancient greece meant more along the lines of "an unmarried woman" than "someone who hasnt had sex" :)
This was really fun to watch! Ancient Greece is just one of those times in history with so much to offer with their culture, influence, aesthetics and mythology. The fact that you explained different aspects as you walked around made the experience that much more immersive. Really looking forward to future videos like this.
Thanks! I really really did enjoy this format for sharing content. Everything just becomes so much more approachable and it all seems to click.
You forgot science, philosophy, math :)
@@udishomer5852 That is very true, friend. Considering some of these are among my interests, I am ashamed of my failing memory with these. D:
@@udishomer5852 u forgot slavery too
@@udishomer5852 And the animal and occasional human sacrifices, the slave-based economy, and women being forbidden to leave their houses unless accompanied by a male relative, and forced to cover their heads and faces when in public.
The Caryatids that are there now are copies and the originals are housed in the Acropolis museum except for one that was looted by Elgin which is in the British museum.
Was it the 5th or 6th front column of the Erectheion that is kept in London ?
@@hyekang3850 third from the left

I heard that in the voice of Socrates who was actually against the "new" trend of writing things down.
@@jaskey Holy shit so you know what Socrates sounded like?
In Athens they use to sit on a chair to study
Will you be doing more of these? It was great.
YES!
It would be great if you could do the Athenian agora.
@@InvictaHistory perhaps Corinth and sparta? Your channel is so damn good
@@InvictaHistory THANK YOU! remember the last assassins creed also had this discovery mode. It takes place in Roman Egypt and I enjoyed their history tours very much!
@@InvictaHistory Please, make more!
Damn, nice work considering it only came out today.
It is amazing what the Greeks made thousands of years ago.
@@QualityPen These were religious structures built over many years to praise the gods.
Ordinary Greek people would live in very simple stone homes.
@@QualityPen Because there are more metrics that can be used for measuring progress in society than just the architecture of certain temples? Just a thought.

Well Roma built by the Annea's grandchildren and he was Dardanian Prince of Troy.Dardanian was Pelasgian tribe.
"Greek's"doesn't existed then🤣🤣
Now THIS is the way History ought to be taught in schools from now on!
Thank you SO much for your tour and commentary, and many thanks to the creators of the game, of course. Looking forward to seeing more like this about other ancient civilizations.
I'm so glad I've bought this game, their recreation of ancient Greece is absolutely staggering.
As a middle school Social Studies teacher, and a huge fan of the AC series from childhood, you have made my whole week with this.
Such tremendous attention to detail here, really impressed with the work they did in this game, even if I am at odds with company lately.
Here I am again...2 years after my first viewing, and it is still as amazing as it was the last time I watched this video! There are only two comments that I would like to add about your awesome presentation. The first being how you mentioned that the walls on the sides of the Acropolis were built to fortify the outcrop. True, but another major reason they were built, was to increase the amount of flat land on the top of the Acropolis itself. Over one-third of the Parthenon stands on this man-made soil that was created by the construction of these supporting walls. And second, maybe in a future version, you could show the huge statue of Athenia in the Parthenon, lit by the torches inside what was probably a rather dark interior space. I would imagine that the reflection of the flames off the gold and ivory of the statue would have made Athenia appear to move and breathe. That would certainly been awe inspiring to anyone who viewed it! And it could totally support the belief that even though everyone knew it was a statue, when people saw the statue appear to move and breathe...they could religiously assume that they were viewing the statue during those occasions where Athenia and her spirit/soul had entered into the statue itself!! And if THAT did not make you fall to your knees to pray and believe in Athenia...nothing would!
The quality of your videos is simply outstanding. It is like actually being there in the past ! Congratulations.
You should do a discovery tour in Alexandria or Memphis in Ac Origins.
17:55 nothing we produce today would last for 1000 years and be so beautiful at the same time.
fast food burgers?
So glad I was born in this culture. I just wish I could travel In time and see the Acropolis during its glorious years. 2.500 years ago!!!!It's still mind blowing standing next to the Parthenon itself today. Awesome job by the creators and thanks for helping us travel back then.
This actually felt like you’re vlogging from the Acropolis! 😃
Thank you so much for doing this! I had no idea this was a thing on Odyssey until now. I absolutely loved the discovery tour mode on Origins, so I am bound to love this too. Cannot wait to get stuck in and learn about Ancient Greece!
Simply amazing how Ubisoft recreates these historic sites. I'm tempted to play this game again.
The star of this game is the world in which the player gets to explore. Ubi did an absolutely incredible job in recreating Ancient Greece.
I LOVE this format. Really feels like you are guiding us through the city as it was. Please do more!!
Brilliant! Amazing job from Ubisoft with all the details and the overall atmoshere and thank you so much for taking us on a guided tour.
Id love to see more of this! Both Origins and Odyssey could be great visual aids.
Magnificent! Thank you a lot for this tour, I've been there couple years ago, but only now I have realized how great and beautiful it actually used to be.
This is fantastic!! I love that you put in the landscaping, the greenery, that obviously the Greeks would have planted. And I also really love the huge statue of Athena that people would have seen once they left the entrance portal to the holy area of the Acropolis! Most sites use a much smaller statue, which would NOT have left the impression that the ancient Greeks were striving for. And so much more detail that you put into this amazing work of art!! Too many to mention here. Bravo to you!!
Beautiful representation of this holy ancient mythological site. I truly enjoyed watching 👍
You know it's a great content when 33 mins feels like 5 mins.
Muh content!
Didn't think I'd like this video at first but found myself quickly captivated. Great video!
I'm Greek and I approve of this video!
Greetings from Athens,Greece! The game's portrayal and imaging of Ancient Athens is reasonably accurate (considering its an entertainment medium and there is loads of stuff on the Acropolis that shouldn't be there, the site is really cramped on the top of the hill). If i'm not mistaken though, the HUGE statue of Αθηνά (Πρόμαχος or Παρθένη or Gold-Ivory Statue of Athena) was actually INSIDE the main hall of the temple (the σικός) and not outside. I'm really glad you 're showcasing this and excited that people enjoy learning about greek history!
The gold Ivory Statue is indeed inside the temple, maybe you haven't watched the video entirelly and stopped on the Big bronze one outside
There were two statues, one outside and one inside (which is also in the game) The statue outside was about 30-40 ft tall I think, so maybe only slightly shorter than it appears here.
shouldve watched the whole video first lol
should not have been a retard and should have kept watching. A good lesson for the future, never comment without watching the whole thing. Greetings from Crete
Dude, this is Athena Promachos.
I've enjoyed many of your videos but I haven't commented on one before. I just wanted to say this was a fantastic idea. I've actually visited Greece and the Parthenon but seeing it this way was a great experience.
I don't even play video games, I'm here for the HISTORY! This makes it come alive. Great job to both the developers and to you, Invicta.
LLC CL
just a small correction, karyatides found on acropolis nowdays are not the real ones. The real ones are housed inside acropolis's museum
Ive been playing this latley and the exploration is amazing. Nice video once again!
This is the coolest ad ever!
Congratulations on an excellent narration and visit to an exquisite monument of the ancient world of Athens, Greece! Thank you 💖
It's incredible how much knowledge you have about ancient Athens.
Great idea for a video.
Can't get enough of these videos. Fascinating with wonderful information. How many times have i day dreamed and imagined what it must've been like in those ancient cities. I've read sources, traveled the world to many sites. Sat in ruins and pondered the ancients, and now to have a tour live and in color is almost too good to be true!
When the entertainment industry does a better job at education than many museums and schools. Even when accounting for some of the liberties they took. (Actually I think it may be clothing where they went furthest from the real thing.)
It's not very factual though. This is somebody's fantasy of an idealized Athens that never existed.
This series is outstanding. I feel like I have traveled in my mind.
I've been fascinated by the ancient Greeks and Romans since I was a child and read a good deal about them. Now to actually see a video of what it actually looked like with brief description is like turning the lights on and seeing through their eyes. Well done. The Romans and Greeks surrounded themselves with beauty. The Pantheon in Rome is proof of architectural genius. The Parthenon was funded by Athens allies in part--illegally--which wasn't what the league members agreed to. Someone will have to post what the building, the statues, etc. of the complex would cost in US dollars. I saw the figure, but have forgotten it. I mean we're talking a lot of money.
Wow. As somebody who studied classical archaeology and has been in Athens I gotta say this is simply amazing. And also most of the details of the architecture and statues are quite accurate (obv. not every single painting or smaller statue on the acropolis is known, so they had to fill in some details). Thank you for the great tour!
This may be the greatest KRplus video I’ve ever seen
extraordinary graphic arts and an impressive, yet informative tour trip. thanks for your great effort, invicta!
This was amazing, love the tour, the love for detail is great. Thank you for this educational and entertaining video.
You have to find a way to give us a tour of the Roman forum
Well he could play assassin's creed brotherhood😂. It's set during the Renaissance though so the forum is already in ruin, but I guess it's a start.
@@verdantspectrum8892 in ac brotherhood thw forum is massively scaled down
haizzz, I always wanted a remake of the AC renaissance, with a more detailed of Roma, Venice.
This is amazing! Learned much more here than in the museums of the city!
AC has always been one of my favorite single player games. Great walkthrough.
I found the video very intresting and historically accurate ,so congratulations for the hard work put into this video
Do one for sparta please (and how historicly accurate the city is)
The problem is, as far as I know, we have only very limited knowledge of Sparta compared to Athens. Best example is that the most detailed description of Spartan society was written by a foreigner and not a Spartan. Im not sure there are that many archaeological things left eather. I mean Sparta did literally die out over a long period of time (with the Romans turning it into some kind of ancient amusement park ^^).
@@noobster4779 I agree with your comment. The Spartans were not renowned for their art or architecture. After their victory over Athens in the Peloponnesian war they generously refused to sack Athens in recognition of its unique contribution to Greek culture, though they did tear down the extensive walls that surrounded the city and had successfully kept them out for years.
It would be nice to see a recreation of Delphi, the site of the scared oracle. It was a neutral religious site for all Greeks, where each city state competed to create the most elaborate dedications with buildings and art intended to glorify both themselves and the pantheon of Greek gods.
@@noobster4779 In fact, Thucydides wrote thus:
"Suppose the city of Sparta to be deserted, and nothing left but the temples and the ground-plan, distant ages would be very unwilling to believe that the power of the Lacedaemonians was at all equal to their fame. Their city is not built continuously, and has no splendid temples or other edifices; it rather resembles a group of villages, like the ancient towns of Hellas, and would therefore make a poor show."
@@justinove7521 I think that you are correct that the city Sparta itself would be a disappointment to see when compared to the legendary reputation that the Spartans themselves have gained as warriors.
Spartan society was based around a system that enslaved the local Laconian Greeks who neighboured Sparta, these helots were tasked with all the unpleasant practical activities needed for the maintenance of their city state. Therefore the fulltime occupation of native male Spartans was the subjugation of their huge and rebellious slave population. Spartans had little interest or need to do anything else, which would probably extend to a lack of enthusiasm in elaborate city building, art or architecture.
Sparta as a settlement (I wouldn't even call it a city) was not exactly impressive. It was small and very rural, with few artisans or any other industries not devoted to agriculture or war-smithing. One thing the game gets right it that it is much smaller in comparison to Athens; though the giant ugly statues and large temples were probably poetic license. The word "Spartan" today connotes something that is spare but also utile. These were people who had a cultural disdain for luxury items and frivolities (At least at first. That would soon change). For a time even the use of gold as a currency was outlawed, the Spartan preferring to trade in iron, which unlike gold they felt they actually had more use for.
That would change as Sparta grew in power and wealth; large influxes of war booty changed the Spartan economy to one that was more like its neighbors; later archeologic records of gold, ivory, and fine pottery showed a growing Spartan taste for luxury items. The large numbers of Spartan men killed in wars of conquest also had unforeseen effects on the Spartan economy and culture: Spartan women, who unlike women in most other Greek city-states had the legal right to own property, began owning more and more of it, and unlike their conservative-minded warrior husbands did not see any problem with diversifying their family portfolios with businesses and investments beyond slaves and agriculture.
I'm going there soon I cant wait to visit it
Love discovery tour makes you understand how many details you missed while playing the game.
Appreciate this commentary, thank you very much for posting it and sharing your knowledge. Absolutely incredible job by the researchers and designers!
My Latin teacher gave me this video as a guide for studying the Pantheon.
You do great virtual tours now we need a vr headset to enjoy full immersion
I just returned from the Acropolis and wanted a video that would give me more "vivid details" , this video was EXCELLENT! it helped me understand the history better.. thank you!
31:40 Indeed there was a pool in front of the chryselepantine statue of Athena, but it wasn't just for reflexion, but for conservation matters since it provided the right humidity for the statue to remain new. In the temple of Asclepius at Epidaurus, there was a pool of olive oil to keep the statue of the god in good conditions since the terrain was swampy.
Please do more of these. Pleaseeeee! :D
They did a great job with the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, the Temple of Zeus at Olympia and the temple of Aphrodite at Acrocorinth. The game made me realize how important Apollo was as a deity, he was like the """Jesus""" of their religion and Delphi was a holy site like Jerusalem, maybe even more holy, since one was not suposed to lie, kill, have sex and many other behaviors there.
As well as Delos!
I visited the Acropolis some fifteen years ago...to see this is amazing
Wow, Wow, I nearly skipped passed, you creators of this show are absolutely amazing you have created the greatest show I have ever seen
Small tip for the next videogame walkthrough: move a bit more smoother through the levels, the shaking with the mouse to point stuff out was making me a bit nauseous :)
I love Discovery mode. I think I've spent more time in these modes than in the actual game.
awesome video and explanations!
15:55 i would think more than that. They apparently saved about 1/4 of the cost by reusing blocks from the older Parthenon that was never finished.
But they had to use money stolen from their Delian allies too.
They even had to stop construction of the nearby Temple of Hephaestus to fund the Parthenon.
My daughter and I watched this to supplement our S.S. lesson today- it was just what she was craving... To see the Athenian acropolis and parthenon in its glory. Thank you.
Y'all should visit the life-sized Parthenon in Tennessee.
Amazing idea
What about the life-sized original in Athens?
Mitsvan Mitsvanio Because the Athens one is mostly destroyed and covered by scaffolding.
As an AC fan this was incredibly difficult to watch u NOT climb on any buildings or statues 😂
But please do another one of these vids for AC Valhalla!! Really enjoyed ^_^
He hasn't done one yet but in the meantime I have my video of Michells Fold one of the locations my history discretion is in the subtitles. krplus.net/bidio/m9CgonJfaXutp2k
I've given two thumbs up to about 3 other videos since 2005 when KRplus was new. Absolutely well done because for once someone knows their shit. This gave me peace because I began to give up on youtube. Thank you man and I'm hittin subscribe
I'm at Athens now. Just been to the acropolis and this walkthrough is a great way to help visual and understand what I've seen today 👍
I read the pool was meant to regulate temperature in order for the ivory not to deteriorate. edit: the pool inside the Parthenon that is
I think it’s amazing that they can make video games with so much detail and depth! If this is what video games are like now then who knows how advanced and realistic they’ll be by 2080 or so👍✨
I just went to the Parthenon in Nashville, Tennessee. This helped bring it to life, thank you
I really loved this. Get a view of what it really looked like at that time. Learned much. Thanks to the artist and renditions.
This is so great. Props to the devs for being so meticulous!
You might want to avoid wiggling your mouse around to show a detail with a reticule we can't see in the capture and stop running like a mad man when you try to show us around.
Long sweeping camera movements are much more easy on the eye.
Agreed. Did someone already suggest using a controller for these kinds of guides. To make the camera movements more smooth in general.
I literally can't watch this because of all the jostling. If he wants to add in some kind of indicators on screen to show emphasis, that would be better than shaking the camera. Motion sickness is a thing.
Hi TheZappan99! Thanks for bringing up a very important point that I was afraid to bring up and sound like I was complaining about such a good endeavor as this. This is a masterpiece of representing Athens so realistically, but right away my eyes were very fatigued by the for some reason hurried and jerking motions of the point of view and had to alleviate that somewhat by not going with full screen. If this is virtually interactive, or whatever the technical term is, I think they should re-do this.
Absolutely, ... motion sickness and eye strain due to the inexperienced, jerky camera handling is a major put-off for this otherwise amazing presentation... pity. It's thumbs down for me.
Agree... It's a nice video but I can't finish it. 😭🤮
This is awesome! Would LOVE to see more videos like this, set in other places and eras. The Forum Romanum would be great!
I'm definitely going to use this video for my history class ! Amazing work and commentary !
I been playing odyssey for a couple of days, and athens looks lovely, the game its not perfect, but is good.
I hope we get to experience the future when game is so real, so people do vlog on it
What an awesome format! Thank you very much for this amazing seres of videos, I'm really enjoying it.
Totally adore your guided tours - thank you so much!
So amazing!! The videospeed is somewhat dizzying, but the commentary is terrific! History lesson at it's best 😍
I'd love to see the rest of Athens, like public cemetery and such
Thank you for giving the tour, I really enjoyed how you narrated and did the walkthrough
Great job Invicta! You really make history come alive in a meaningful and inspiring way! Love it! :D

@@calebburns4346 ❤ vote 4 TBA
Ubisoft made their impression on my with Prince of Persia so it’s little surprise now tbh
Wow! I have visited the Acropolis twice - 1974 & 2016.
I found the story of the columns most fascinating. You might consider adding it to your narrative. The columns look straight and equally proportioned, that was an intentional optical illusion.
The shape of the column shafts, and their slight tilt from the vertical, are said to correct optical distortions so that the building appears to be perfectly regular. The columns taper towards the top, but also swell slightly part of the way up, to avoid an impression of narrowing at the centre. The corner columns are marginally wider, to counteract another visual effect; without this adjustment, they would appear thinner than the inner columns.
The columns are not exactly equidistant, the outer ones being slightly closer together. Neither are the columns precisely vertical; they slope imperceptibly inwards. It has been estimated that the end columns, if continued upwards, would meet several kilometres above the Parthenon. These refinements required a remarkable degree of precision, and deep understanding of both geometry and the subtleties of human visual perception.
thanks for all the vides, love them, greetings from Athens Hellas [ Greece ]
With how well this video shows all the detail, an ac first person game would be awesome
