[@YungSheogorath]

It is surprising that it has grown so much since launch and gained a large following. Would still say it's far from being the most loved in the series though, at least generally throughout the community rather than individual opinion.

[@c0mpu73rguy]

The most loved?! I doubt that.

Yeah, last time I played it, it was a buggy mess with a boring script. I don't think it has changed since, it still sucks in my opinion.

[@lukericker8325]

KitMasterSky Nah the game still kinda sucks. But I’m biased since I had to put up with the atrocious early bugs. Easily one of the most beautiful in the series though. It blows AC Odyssey out of the water on pure graphics quality. The textures and particle effects in this game were awesome.

[@c0mpu73rguy]

Luke Ricker AC Syndicate, Origins and Odyssey all looks better which in a way is a good thing. At least something is getting better in this series as time goes on. But sadly graphics aren’t everything, especially if the game runs at 2fps even on high end PCs like for Unity.

@@SleepySheepish If you were to think about it, monuments such as the White House were burned to a much worse state in 1812.

Now the White House is visited thousands of times and is still a recognizable and important part of U.S. history. Like you said, this fire will be apart of the history and a few centuries from now when we are all long and gone the Cathedral will be seen as a piece of history just like we saw it before it was burned down and after.

I know people love to goof on Ubisoft, but when it comes to making gorgeous gaming worlds, they are as good as anyone. They pump these out annually....amazing! Wish they’d focus more on narrative, as they could become GOTY contenders. This game is five years old and looks fantastic. Most of the glitches have been worked out now, and its worth a play. This game, with the thousands of people on the streets, was a bit too ambitious for it’s time. I don’t even PC game anymore, but I’m gonna go buy this on the Playstation Store, just because Ubisoft is being cool.

WarlordRising Certainly looks the best. But I had way more fun getting into Odyssey. I can barely even remember the story of this game, or even the main character. Which isn’t a good sign. (I can remember AC1,2,3 and others, but this one just kinda fell flat to me)

[@J.F.331]

I actually liked AC Unity. The open world of Paris was fantastic, especially being able to enter many of the historical buildings. That was one thing that was missing from Syndicate. I really wanted to go inside Westminster Abbey or even the Royal Theatre that Haytham and Birch were in the beginning of AC 3. I honestly think Syndicate was the worse one of them all. Visuals were great, but story and fighting were not as good in my opinion.
