I just wasted an entire minute of my day to see "but that makes you a loser" thanks

Ac unity ---->Big, ambitious,detailed but not polished

This should've been a sequel to Unity with Shay being the Grandmaster instead and Arno is building up the assassin's in London to take down Shay and also for his revenge

Honestly I cant see how a man that causes so many to suffer for the comfort of those on top cant be viewed as anything but despicable, the industry tycoons in London at that time cared only for the British elite and countryies such as India and Ireland suffered because of that. Crawford represents the terrifying ambition of such men that will do anything to achieve their dream of growing a tyrannical empire fueled by the sweat and blood of the working colonised countries

Don't get too worked up about the fact that Starrick was supposed to be the big bad guy but you felt you were rooting for him because that's not wrong. That's the point of AC since the beginning - they don't establish black and white. On most occasions, neither the Assassins nor the Templars are good guys as both factions believe they're fighting for the greater good and even on times that their objectives align, their methods differ. One fights for freedom and the other for order but both sides are extreme. We only play as the Assassins (because it offers more gameplay opportunities) but if we played as Templars (like in Rogue), Assassins would then feel as if they're the villains. Therefore, thinking you should establish one as purely bad is the wrong way to go or expect when playing AC games since they never force you to think of one as the completely evil side and they always leave you free to decide where you personally align except for the fact that you can only play as assassins for gameplay and plot's sake. Think of it like Marvel's Civil War in the comics. No one is completely good or bad and it's just the same thing with AC.

Your complaint for the antagonist is that he was evil, everything you pointed out just makes him more evil, controlling the entire world is a fundamentally even thing, employing people doesn't make you good

You should do a critique of a rockstar game either gta v or red dead redemption.

AC syndicate has been in my backlog for like 1 and a half years. Playing it now and this is the most insightful detailed review I have ever seen. I agreed with you on a lot of things regarding the repetitiveness..subscribed!

I personally enjoyed Unity (minus the glitches) more than Syndicate. I just felt more emotionally invested in it and the character development was better. We also had more interactions with the main villain.

Black Flag will always hold a special place in my heart, even though there's literally no way they could replicate its success without it being painfully obvious.

I must be a basic bitch, I loved this game, I still remember grinding to get every collectible, every outfit, every weapon. The map is huge, I love the time period, the main characters, the DLC’s it all worked so good for me, I would spend hours just roaming London and I loved every second of it, makes me sad to see everyone is calling it basic and repetitive. I think every game is repetitive in some aspects, I thought this game was a great experience I still do.

Came to your channel for the Unity video. Now I'm stoked to hear what you have to say about Syndicate! Thanks Luke!

The villains are hollow because they weren’t real people. The closer to modern times we get, the more ubi has to replace real historical figures with fictional characters because they can’t pitch them as good or bad. For one reason. Recent descendants. People may get mad if their great great grandpa is the Templar grand master that wants to enslave a generation with some piece of eden.
