[@bored_potato]

"Not funny universe, not funny at all." looks like Shaun has a heart after all

[@ReinAfterDark]

well desmond was a bitch

[@americano451]

My heart kinda broke at that part. I was like "AW SHAUN ISN'T A TOTAL GRINCH."

[@TheFlag19]

I laughed so much, lmao. Like, Shaun hated Desmond so much, and now his crying in a room, lmaolmaolmaolmao

[@zorex.]

shaun did not hate desmond at all he was just occasionally a dick towards him

[@assassinscreedreallifepran1080]

Desmond said in AC 3 "Oh f*ck you Shaun!' I laughed

[@dracox289]

also, the train in the opening sequence has the year 1476 on it which is the year ezios father and brothers died and when he first became an assassin

[@justinblakeney3466]

Good god, how soon after AC 1 came out did you take that name?

[@jeffjeffers9313]

This was actually a very solid game, just a few bugs and that God awful ending left a sour taste in my mouth. I'd probably rank it my 4th favourite behind AC 2, Brotherhood and Black Flag.

Anybody who owns and finished Syndicite definitely knows at least two of the things you listed. Especially the Desmond one.

[@Sharpteeth32]

The Desmond one and Shaun crying hit me in the heart, shed some tears. I miss Desmond. And that's coming from a guy, assuming you go by the stereotype men don't cry, which is malarkey. Yea, that's right! Malarkey!

caketin neenan They were close friends before Desmond died. Apparently.

[@sectordx1259]

as an assassins creed lover and after playing nearly every game countless times it hurts me emotionally that shaun did what he did when he found out the dogs name was desmond

[@SomeDoucheNamedPeacock]

The one thing I find funny, I showed this video to a friend the day it came out, and he said, "Why is this Shaun guy crying over this dog named "Desmond"? What the fuck is wrong with that guy?" He still has no idea that Desmond died at the end of Assassin's Creed lll

[@davidvonderhaar786]

He knew that Desmond died

[@SomeDoucheNamedPeacock]

I know, but the friend that I was talking about didn't know, he's one of those guys that doesn't play a game but says he know everything about that game.

I actually feel sorry for Shaun. He may be a prick, but i feel with him. I think the Assassins Creed franchise has going a bit downhill sense they killed off Desmond, story wise.

[@mutteringmushroom5103]

+TheObrien101 yeah the modern day plot line has really slowed down ever since they killed Desmond.

[@YetiUprising]

+TheObrien101 Maybe he's not "really" dead

[@JdSnow26]

He's dead, but I'm curious if they'll use that piece of Eden to revive the dead on him. No clue how it works though

[@YetiUprising]

I was thinking since Juno and some of those first civilization people seem to be living in their big computer that maybe when Desmond touched that thing it uploaded his consciousness to the computer like them. So he's not in his body and appeared to be dead. If that's the angle they are going with on this.

[@greedytn6106]

i really miss the old AC4 days my fav assassins creed game

Shaun also makes a reference to Desmond in one of the latest modern cutschenes, where he talks about a colleague of his who was his boss's son. He also said that he didn't liked him at first but in the end he saved us all....I'm pretty sure he's talking about Desmond.

[@justinblakeney3466]

Definitely not an easter egg. They assume you already know it's Desmond.

[@renalanf0rd]

was also a moment on the train when one of the rooks says that the train is bigger on the inside. A reference to the Tardis from Doctor Who.

[@MarwanAbdElghany]

so Ubisoft trolling us or what!! why they named that dog Desmond?

My guess is to piss of fans

[@hellenicgyp5966]

cuz its a name?

[@Rayncynn]

@@hellenicgyp5966 no actually fans wanted some character with personality not too grim like Connor. So Ubisoft gave them what they wanted. A clown assassin (Jacob) and the desmond just to annoy the fans for asking too much.. that's my speculation though

[@billythekid21able]

I knew the piano notes sounded familiar. Was driving me nuts trying to figure it out. I even replayed that mission 3 times before giving up. Thanks man.

[@CazTails]

Another fun secret: when listening to random civilians' conversations, you may hear this: "You fight like a dairy farmer." "How appropriate that I fight like a dairy farmer, because you fight like a cow!!" This is a reference to the LucasArts title _The Secret of Monkey Island_ 's insult swordfighting minigame!!

[@yikes7607]

These are really cool. There is also a subtle reference to AC Unity that can be heard in public squares or near factories wherever there are workers or a syndicate demanding better working conditions. A sort of superintendent addresses the protestants saying something like "you people are unhappy with your lot but don't think you can't be easily replaced, you should be grateful you have this job yet here you are, shouting like a French peasant". It's clearly a reference to the French Revolution and the people's uprising in AC Unity.

[@SWDarmanfan1998]

Great game, great video, great easter eggs!

[@Dudeli]

number 9. yeah people totally don't know about this because it's not like it's a main mission...

[@p.s.3777]

Hi ACVideo's, thanks for the post! I don't know if this was already posted by somebody else, but there's also a reference to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. At the start of one of the Singh missions (Much Ado About Drinking) a young boy at Waterloo Station says "I'm just a poor boy. Nobody loves me.". I don't know if the line can be heard anywhere else in the game, I hadn't heard it before up until that point.

[@ACV]

Nice. Bohemian Rhapsody is one of my favourite song.

[@danielflanard8274]

From the combination of constantly hearing leave her, Johnny leave her in both rogue and black flag, the song is burned into my brain.

[@Qingsen-jt9vh]

I love that after the kenway games everything seems to be connected to him or his family. E.G. in Ac Unity, the templar cross that Arno's holding came from Edward's daughter, Jennifer Scott when Elise went to London.

[@SAKOBAMBINO]

I’m new to AC universe. I bought all the games last week. Started playing the Syndicate as my first AC game. Really like the world they created in London, and how realistic most of its city life aspects are! I’m excited to continue with the rest of the games. I’m thinking it might take me years to finish everything haha….. I’m a chill player, I like taking my time and explore for fun.

[@ACV]

Take your time and play each game slowly , you can also read few comics/books related to the game to get more immerse

[@Gamersaures]

machiavelli and Leonardo written books on Ezio so thats why we see that romantic story inspired by Ezio and Cristina

[@alvarengaaustin]

I loved the kenway mansion part. That sea shanty is my favorite.

Lowlands away is my favorite song in ac 4

[@flowergreeeeed]

Great video.

[@sford564]

Good list. Another cool one is that the quest Our Mutual Friend is taken after the Dicken's story, Our Mutual Friend. If you recall, John Hammond pretends he died so he can test the sincerity of her poor bride, with whom he was engaged since youth. (Same as the book.) And then he falls in love with her and works to win her back. (Same as in the book.) The quest got a little silly with kidnapping her and him pretending to rescue her. Honestly, when she finds out the truth, she should give him a bloody nose. :\

[@satyarajsharma3164]

Hey, That song" Leave her, Johnny" also plays in AC Rogue during seafaring !!!

[@clintmohammed8059]

There's another one (since I've just finished the game an hour ago): When you head to Queen Victoria for the last mission (the 4th and as in last one), you'll find that she's about to be taken a photograph. Right after accepting the mission, you'll see that she's posing in front of the camera - and you'll see that exact picture, with that exact pose, when you search Queen Victoria in the Internet (though, actual picture was taken in 1890 whereas AC Syndicate was set in 1868).

[@mohammednalg3802]

You know Assassin's creed victory might be a whole new different game based on the story of Goerge. I mean I'm not sure but I think.

[@historiamania3306]

Also, near the end of the storyline, when Evie went to the bal, when Starrick escaped from it after having stole the key to the vault, when she is back in her “normal” outfit she said : Requiecast in pace
