    Syndicate has the best setting, best atmosphere and best characters.

    Brotherhood definitely at number one for me. Just started replaying this on my laptop.
    Never tried Unity. Can get it fairly cheap on the pc, but would like to know if it's still a mess technically.

    Tried Syndicate a few times, but was completely lost half of the time. Sold it pretty quickly.

    Like I said, I've only played it for a couple of hours but it's going to be a good one. The map is stunning and absolutely huge. The main character, Bayek, seems great as well.

    Started watching RadBrad's walkthrough for the new one.

    Bit boring. Gameplay looks weird as well, a bit too arcad-ish in terms of the fight scenes with some weird purple smoke * coming up every time he swings the sword.

    I'm loving it. Not sure what that purple smoke thing is all about, haven't seen that.

    The map is stunning and huge, and there's a load of side quests and camps to clear out. So addictive.

    I haven't done any races yet actually.

    The map size is ridiculous. I've not even unveiled half of the map yet.

    I traded in Shadow of War (absolutely *) and got this today.

    I'm not playing it until tomorrow but what's it like guys? I haven't bought an AC game in a few years because they came boring and repetitive but couldn't resist buying an Egyptian based one.

    Get it.

    I know you were a fan of The Witcher 3, and this game gives me some Witcher vibes. The map is huge with a couple of stunning cities and some very cool towns/villages. There's a * load of side quests/viewpoints/treasure/camps to clear if that tickles your fancy.

    The main character - Bayek - is very likeable and has a good mixture of being ruthless and funny. He's just behind Ezio and Edward from Black Flag in terms of my favourite character in the series.

    Plus it feels really different from the previous AC games. It's essentially an RPG now. You loot weapons and get some as rewards for quests. You can get common weapons, rare and legendary - so there's a huge number to choose from or find. And there's 3 skill trees to use in order to boost Bayek's skills.

    At first I hated Origins, but had another go at it and getting more into it now. Playing it on the laptop and it's running better than expected.

    Rogue is being remastered for Xbox One and PS4. March 20th is the release date.

    Probably going to get it. It’s the only full blown AC game I haven’t played.

    I enjoyed Rogue. Gameplay is obviously different because you are on the other side and it's an interesting change.
