As they are, I agree the modern-day stuff wasn't as good as it could've been. Quote:
As for mine (as far as I've played): 1. Origins/II 2. Black Flag/Brotherhood 3. Rogue/Odyssey 4. III/Liberation 5. Revelations/Assassin's Creed I 6. Unity/Syndicate* *the main story and setting of these didn't really interest me. It was the jumping through different times that I enjoyed the most and wanted more of (apparently a behind the scenes originally had Unity as the main concept of the game but was deemed too ambitious and restricted to the glitch missions). |

I think those who enjoyed Vikings tv show will enjoy Valhalla more! I can't wait for the game to come, hope we survive the pandemic!

Someone do me a favour, if you've got it, look at the cover art of Syndicate.....the 2nd man on the left (scraggly hair and bear)...... that's Pierre Ballec from Unity right? Looks way too much like him. Maybe he was a rendered character model asset for some Unity promo material that never got used? Or just a very very similar likeness.

I would actually love to see an AC1 remake, with a very scaled down Origins/Odyssey RPG formula.

I've been playing AC: Syndicate for the first time and I gotta say I'm enjoying this game a lot I wasn't so overwhelmed with side-quests as I was with Unity, even though there are a lot of them. I also like how they made it easier to dodge enemy gunfire, especially when trying to run away. God knows how many one-hit kills I suffered through Unity. As for the grappling hook, I wasn't sure if I was going to like it but I'm strangely addicted to it, I hope I don't miss it too much when I get to play Origins.

I'm addicted to it as well! I just love going across the rooftops with it. Sometimes I've just done that aimlessly for long periods of time and thought "****, I've actually done nothing in the time I've been playing this" haha |

The grapple is good due to the architecture. The whole point of the climbing was to make a quick escape but the architecture in the older games was lower to the ground. The grappling hook keeps the same premise in the much more modern evironments Syndicate provides - I actually think it would have been useful in AC3 with how far apart the buildings were. Origins returns to a more ancient style of architecture so the grapple isn't needed as much and I didn't miss it.

I just finished Sequence 8. I was heading to a theatre to find one of Crawford's henchmen when I suddenly recognized I was in Leicester Square even though it looks different today. I was like "I've been here before" lol
I don't know how faithful some of the building recreations are but Buckingham Palace looks the same to me apart from things that were added with time. Of course I've never been inside so I couldn't say the same about the interior Quote:
