Background sounds were very lacking, and would make bustling crowds of NPC's seem sort of dead. The grappling hook is a fun addition at first, but is so effective that doing parkour around the city is comparatively ineffective, so you just end up grappling again and again to get around. Combat is boring and feels janky and weird. Characters aren't that interesting, and their motivation for doing stuff seems forced, which results in a weak story. Characters London is a beatiful and interesting setting for this game, but that's sort of everything that this game has going for it. London is a beatiful and interesting setting for this game, but that's sort of everything that this game has going for it. Overall, I think the game deserves a 6/10.

Thankfully, I got it for free in the "Bullets or Blades" promotion with GTX cards. All in all, this is probably the last AC game I'll play. Combat is clunky and boring, the only thing I find satisfying about it are the multi-kill animations, where you can execute several "near death" enemies instantly, in a spectacular fashion. The missions seem to always turn into a "f. Not that AC ever excelled at stealth assassinations, but I just can't play this game in a stealthy manner. Due to bad controls, and the way your character seems to have less ways to actually be a GHOST ASSASSIN, I feel like the whole game is mainly played as a fighting game. My main gripe is actually with the gameplay. Anyway, I realise that out of the whole AC series, I only cared for Ezio's story, especially the way it was done in AC2. The implementation is far from the beautiful way this is being handled in GTA. I don't feel very connected to the siblings and I often feel like this has been done just because it worked really well in GTA V. I don't have much to say about the story & characters. I appreciate that they've implemented the "free run up" and "free run down" mechanics, to maybe help a little with navigating the world, but the control is still imprecise and more often than not, you are fighting against it. The controls continue to be a hassle to work with.
I have to admit this is the only reason I still play AC games, the possibility of seeing various cities at various important periods in history (well, as long as the producers do their historical research well enough). London feels alive and I think they have captured the vibe of those times well enough. The graphics look pretty good, although they are sometimes dull and still not free of pop-ins issues. The game runs well on a GTX 980 Ti with max settings, but then again, it's the top of the line video card. I can't judge exactly how much Syndicate improves on that, because I am playing this on the PC, not PS4. Now, I have played Unity on PS4, and the choppy framerate and huge pop-ins issue, along with very imprecise controls, made the game almost unplayable to me. … ExpandĪs a fan of the Assassin's Creed series, up to and including Black Flag, I must say that for me, Syndicate is yet another disappointment after As a fan of the Assassin's Creed series, up to and including Black Flag, I must say that for me, Syndicate is yet another disappointment after Unity.
