    Thank you OP. I got a copy

      The last proper Assassin's Creed game, it's awesome. I haven't played Mirage yet though

      Also, nice username OP!

      • PleasureMe on 28/11/2023 - 09:07

        Which "proper" version are you referring to? Odyssey?

        • WinterStar on 28/11/2023 - 10:10
          +12

          Syndicate was the last game in the franchise to play more as a stealth game with proper assassinations before it was turned into a run of the mill open world RPG with optional stealth elements in Origin.

          What they mean by "proper" is, the AC community was split when the franchise changed directions with the genre. People that liked how the original games played will generally call them the "proper" games or better games, and people that liked the new genre generally hate the slower feel of the older games so they avoid them like the plague.

          • ESEMCE on 28/11/2023 - 10:26

            @WinterStar: The only bits where this assessment seems accurate are the "boss battle" Military battle portions of Odyssey. I can't think of much difference in the way I played Origins (or the vast majority of Odyssey) versus Syndicate.

            • WinterStar on 28/11/2023 - 10:36
              +2

              @ESEMCE: I don't know how you played the games but it's what actually happened, even UBI announced the change of direction with Origins at the time. It's the whole reason the community got split.

              • ESEMCE on 28/11/2023 - 10:53
                +2

                @WinterStar: I freely admit, I'm not the traditional gamer, and I am certainly not a skilled player so, I guess I play really cautiously and therefore favour "stealth" tactics over brazen combat that a "real" gamer might utilise.
                I'm sure you're right, but for people asking questions on the gameplay of an "old" game, it seems likely that they're more likely to be coming from a casual gaming perspective like me.

          Sorry I meant Syndicate is the last true Assassin's Creed game, after that they went all RPGey

          I loved everything before Origins, which I don't care for. I even liked Odyssey, but it wasn't Assassin's Creed to me. Never got into Valhalla either

          • splicer on 06/12/2023 - 08:56

            @chromium: Wholeheartedly agree with everything you've said.

            I have played and loved them all, even the 2D ones from the Chronicles series. (They missed the boat not doing a full China one, the female protagonist from the China one was awesome - and hidden blade in the shoes FTW) I ran into a game breaking bug in India though, so couldn't finish it.

            I am always a game or two behind in a series. For instance, by the time I got onto Unity, it was cheap, and all the bugs were fixed. I had one or two slight game bugs (like a dude running into the sky off a roof haha), but nothing major.

            I skipped Syndicate to play Origins when it came out, (since I never get to play current games and talk with people who are currently playing with it), and I don't regret it, I loved Origins. Then played Syndicate, and I was like WTF is this. No hidden blade? You kept getting referred to "Mysthios" (aka Mercenary)? There's basically no "planning" of how to climb, or get to your target. You literally just run in ANY direction, and hold A to climb… even towards a friggin' flag mountain surface!! This is how you evade guards, and just come back in 30 seconds. Why link it to AC at the end? Why not have a completely separate game, and then bam at the end we realise it's in the same universe as AC. Kinda like how they secretly linked Half-Life and Portal.

            Odyssey was my least favourite, followed by AC Black Flag (I know I'm going to upset a few people)

            I really should go back to AC Syndicate. I have Valhalla and Mirage to add to my list too. Will probably skip AC Red as I've already played Ghost of Tsushima and I doubt they'll top it.

        I said to download it, not "get it".
        I'm sure we all have an endless list of games in our library that we haven't even started

    • ESEMCE on 28/11/2023 - 10:09

      I was introduced to Assassins Creed franchise through Odyssey (yeah, late to the party) enjoyed the gameplay and more importantly the varied landscapes.

      Then played Origins which IMHO wasn't as good (too much boring desert), although official reviews say it's better than Odyssey.

      Had a run through Valhalla during a free play weekend, but again it felt boring, Origins with snow instead of sand. (to be fair, I didn't get too far)

      Then purchased Syndicate (for $5 or something) as it is highly rated, but I have no idea why, worse than Origins IMHO, mostly because if find the controls extremely frustrating.

      Obviously my preferences are the exact opposite of reviewers, perhaps cause they've come into the games from early years and care about the story or something. I'm no gamer, I play on easy mode cause I'm there for the fun not the challenge/frustration.

      • King Steuart on 28/11/2023 - 11:14
        +2

        If you're going through the games in backwards order (other than Valhalla) then of course they're going to feel more janky. I love the series due to the huge open worlds and how much you can learn, while enjoying a fun fictional story of assasins.

        • chromium on 28/11/2023 - 11:45
          +3

          Haha yeah, the first Assassin's Creed game I finished was Odyssey, which I really enjoyed. I tried to get into Origins, but it was boring.

          Then a couple of years ago I went through ALL of them from the start back to back. Had an absolute blast and then got to Origins and got bored again lol

          Syndicate was one of my favourites, but they're all brilliant pre-Origins

            @King Steuart: You think they 'accidentally' put ads into the menu system of their game?
            They got called out for aggressive and intrusive advertising, then they quickly patched it out of the game and said it was a 'technical issue' to save face. This is the indistinguishable from the response they would have if they'd intentionally added the advertising and then got a negative user response blowback.

            If it were a games company with a reputation for honesty and good customer service then I may give them the benefit of the doubt - but it's Ubisoft, lol.

              'fans' claiming something doesn't make it true. They've said it was meant to pop up in the main menu but popped up elsewhere instead. It's a story where you get to choose your path, and I'm believing Ubi on this one. MS, Sony and EA are worse for ads.

                A company (Ubisoft) claiming something also doesn't make it true, especially when they have a history of dishonesty. Best to think more about your sources.

        I've lost the (probably pretty valuable - even though you presumably aren't technically allowed to sell them) ID and something like $100 worth of games. I don't really care about my Ubisoft account, but highly recommend you use 2FA anywhere you can!

      So I managed to login on my Ubisoft Connect app using one of the single-use recovery codes (for some reason first one didn't work but 2nd one did - I've never used any of them before). Having logged in, I tried changing 2-step verification, but in order to do that, guess what? You have to authorise it using 2-step verification.

      However, I did manage to submit a support email. That also required email verification but that must be on a different system, 'coz that worked.

      But anyway, managed to claim the free game while I was at it, so that's a win, I guess.
