So, after getting bored part way into the very first one, I've never really given a shit about the series but the reviews for the new Assassins' Creed game 'Syndicate' make it sound pretty good and I think I'll stick it on the list. It sounds like it's nicked some bits from other games which I'm not against if they streamline the experience and their version of London's very well rendered by all accounts. Not that I know London at all so I'll be missing out a bit on that hook, at least until Assassin's Creed: Young Team brings Glasgow to virtual life.

Has anyone played this game and the previous one? After thoroughly enjoying Syndicate I was wondering whether it was worth picking up Unity. I know it was bugged to shit when it was first released but I'm assuming all that will be patched now so as long as the gameplay is similar to Syndicate I'd be interested.

Right, but I didn't just want to know who'd played the games, I wanted to know how they compare. That was kind of the entire point of my post there dude. ;)

I'm quite tempted by the Henry Rollins edition of AC, which I've heard is very good and has boats, but I do also like the look of Syndicate wot wiv it being in that gor blimey that London.

Both are cheap, so I suspect I may pick one of them up soon.

AC1 is really bad compared to the recent ones. The controls were bad.
Still the same premise, running, stabby, killing. The add different bits in for each era. I like the Victorian times, and the way you swap between two lead roles.


I am now Trying unity.

Does Desmond or whatever his name still feature? I've only really played half of AC2, so don't understand the lore or whatnot. But the fact I'd regularly be pulled out of renaissance italy to potter about a grey laboratory as some bloke called DESMOND felt like one of the most needlessly obnoxious design decisions of all time.

It's the same now as it was yesterday: is the gameplay of Assassin's Creed Unity similar enough to Assassin's Creed Syndicate that I'd enjoy Unity having enjoyed Syndicate? I really don't know how my original question could've been any clearer.

Shadow Complex is a great game, and I prefer the Hot sauce at Nando's.

TBF, it was Myp who introduced AC1 into the conversation. And, one suspects, this is the exact outcome he intended.

We are all the denizens of a Ubi openworld. Myp is a Desmond.

Yeah to be fair Bamba did mention AC1 in his original post so I think it's fair enough to assume he wanted to talk about that some more.

I like the Middle Ages setting but some of the dialogue is very repetitive. Looking forward to playing AC2 so I can let you know how it compares

Maybe I should just order more?

I started Black Flag the other day.

It's my first Ass Crudding since I Crudded Asses in the second one, which I gave up on after getting stuck in a Templar obstacle course.

I must say, I'm enjoying it, even if the guy I'm playing looks like that commander from the Night's Watch in GoT (Alliser Thorne, had to google it).

Romping around Havana at the moment, shivving people all over the shop and not getting hung up on collecting everything (or anything), because that way madness lies. It's a nice, sunny place to be.

However, the animus stuff. I've always found it weird that the developers would go to all this trouble of creating these immersive, historical worlds, only to forcefully wrench you from them back into the body of Desmond or whatever goober you're playing. It just seemed wilfully perverse.

And now, when I complete a mission, I'm asked to rate it, with a scale of 1-5 stars.

Is that feeding into the Animus storyline, or is it particularly clunky focus grouping from Ubi?

Either way, it's shit.
