Assassins Creed Syndicate (PC) Review

Got this game for free on Uplay. Finished it on Saturday, June 7, 2025.

Ubisoft needed a win after the disaster of Unity at launch. Syndicate released the following year, had a smooth launch, and was generally well received. Assassin’s Creed purists weren’t thrilled because the parkour lacked the depth Unity offered. After watching some videos on YouTube, I agree that Syndicate’s parkour is noticeably more simplistic. The grapple hook was a little controversial. I understand why it exists, and it didn’t bother me too much, but Unity handled traversal better. Tall structures in Unity had stationary grapples placed in specific spots, which still required effort and gave you a sense of accomplishment when you parkoured your way to the top of Notre Dame.

I have mixed feelings about the game.

What I Liked

Quick Save Feature: The ability to quickly save progress is a significant plus. The old save system would have made things worse.
World Design: The game boasts an impressive world design in terms of visuals, and the vast map to explore.
Stunning Graphics: The visuals are truly remarkable, better than Assassin’s Creed Origins in my opinion.

Assassinss Creed Origins (PC) Review

The best thing about Assassin’s Creed Origins is the game world. Ubisoft did a fantastic job creating Egypt. The map is massive, and strictly playing the story missions covers around 60% of the map—this is without any of the DLC content. Exploring the pyramids, the Sphinx, and other Egyptian landmarks is a lot of fun. The City of Memphis is particularly memorable to me. In the hands of a better studio, this game could have been a masterpiece.
