    Assassin's Creed Syndicate works like a charm on the PC. The game looks and feels great. There is lots of content available and those who love the franchise will love Syndicate. Syndicate is a very solid PC release and a must-have for any fan.

    Really fun, with an extraordinary atmosphere, to please the fans and engage new to the franchise, much more polished than Unity, Ubisoft moves on right direction again.

    Syndicate is not only a very interesting Assassin’s Creed experience, is also a polished sandbox and it has some interesting new gameplay features.

    Ubisoft did a much better job with Syndicate than with the PC version of Unity. The promise to keep a closer eye on quality control of future Assassin's Creed games has been mostly kept. Still, Syndicate on PC could benefit from additional code optimization. If you don't own a console and enjoy this universe you should be happy with this version.

    It’s a solid entry in a series that’s been far too prolific, and while Syndicate is good, it’s tough to be excited about it.

    The aging Assassin’s Creed franchise begs to be retooled and refreshed, and the paint-by-the-numbers Syndicate is yet more proof of that.

    In the end, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate is a far more competent entry than the much maligned Unity, but it does not entirely restore faith in the aging franchise.

    Solid Assassin's Creed entry, tons of fun to climb on rooftops of 1868 London. This one might have best rain effect of any AC game.

    It's a good game, better Unity and Rogue. It is a pity that most players do not appreciate it.
    The plot, as in the latter part of the weak, and not fun. This time Ubisoft has pretty good and sometimes funny characters. Jacob fun bouncer is the best character since Ezio. Evie is very beautiful, and sweet, is always considered, and sometimes this game (the developers obviously wanted to please women). The main villain is not a monster, he's a normal man with perverted ideas.
    Nevertheless, the plot is held interesting - there are a lot of interesting missions. The job of the characters is also very nice place (Darwin's wonderful).
    The main innovation is the combat system. It works well and looks very cruel, especially dobivanie, and it's cool!
    London looks very beautiful and realistic. Ubisoft again confirmed that he can build the most plausible worlds. Recommend this next adventure. Yes, it is regular, but not bad and worth the money spent and time. The characters will hook you for sure.

    The good :
    -------------------------
    Great engine, Anvil Improved a lot - great lighting ,reflection ,weather and day night circles -
    The good :
    -------------------------
    Great engine, Anvil Improved a lot - great lighting ,reflection ,weather and day night circles - rope/hook launcher is fun and useful - jumping between moving vehicles ,carts and boats seems fun. Victorian London is Pictured well - the historical research team done a tremendous job - as usual...

    The Bad :
    -----------------------
    Though well portrayed , London city is ugly, grimy and disgusting . You may argue that it's pictured as it was, , but we players come to play for some good times - the sad dull looking London only fells depressive - Lack of color and low res /dull textures everywhere. Devs should have chosen some different city on a different timeline .
    The new style of Key mapping which is introduced in Unity is going in a totally wrong direction. I think the black flag had "last good likable control system".
    The story - intro feels plain flat -- too flat .

    The Ugly :
    ---------------------
    Gameplay is boring and repetitive - Weapons and Character customization reduced to oblivion . Batman type button mashing combat -- like it's designed for two year olds. Sometimes you need to hit an enemy ( read "hit the attack button" ) 20 times before they goes down. Combat system took a major step backwards . Everything feels scripted. Stealth system is nerfed . Stealth_mode_switching_animation (Hat --> Hood ) is laughable . And this games System Requirements are ridiculous at best - though it runs somewhat better than unity.

    Last Words:
    -------------------------------
    It's a disappointment seeing such good engine capabilities went to vain. Devs need to break the yearly release cycle and take time to address all gameplay issues - A new combat system (PoP:WW ? anyone?) and improved button mapping should be their topmost priority.

    I'm always a positive gamer who tries take the good sides of games and ignore the some hitch. However, in this case I'm so mad! I'm so madI'm always a positive gamer who tries take the good sides of games and ignore the some hitch. However, in this case I'm so mad! I'm so mad tiny little of game. This piece of slip game IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I love ubisoft's history, assassins, city designs, but trucking game mechanics always find something to broke. This kind of work never deserve any appriciate! PLEASE SOME OF THE STREET BOYS DO NOT RECOGNISE ME ONE SINGLE TIME! IM SO BORED RUNNING AWAY ALL THE TIME. IM SO BORED TO INVOLVED STREET FIGHT EVERYTIME. YEAH YOU CAN SAY YOU NEED TO DO RED MISSIONS WHICH MAKE SAFE THE AREA, BUT HERE IS THE PROBLEM. AS IN THE OLDER GAMES, IM TRYING TO SNEAK ''CROSS ANGLE'' TO SOME GUARD BUT I CANT ASSASSINATE HIM. WHEN WE GET IN FIGHT ONE ON ONE ON THE STAIRS OF SOME ********* BUILDING THERE IS NO REASON TO ALL ENEMIES LEARN AND RUN IN THE BUILDING TO ME! WHILE IM SWINGING MY 3RD KNIFE ATTACK, IM SURROUNDED 15 MEN!!!!!! IS THIS MAKE SENSE!!!?!?!?!?!!? I HAVE PLAYED ALL THE OTHER GAMES, I'VE STANDED FOR VISUAL ART, STORY, CHARACTERS. I WAS SO HAPPY THAT EPIC GAVE THIS FOR FREE. IN THIS CASE I COULD ONLY RESIST ABOUT 5 HOURS! YOU MADE ME AN ANGRY PERSON. WHO KICKS THE DOOR FOR A SINGLEPLAYER GAME!?!?!?! SOMETHING IS REALLY REALLY WRONG UBISOFT. I HOPE YOUR DELAYING FORWARD GAMES MOVE WILL SOLVE SOMETHING, OTHERWISE YOU ARE LOSING A BEAUTIFUL SERIES OF BRAND (AC) AND LOSING YOUR LOYAL CONSUMERS.
