Just observed this HL:


But remember, this was free before for EGS and once for their platform, if I remember right.

Sad part, thats one of the best :LOL:

You should have it free like he said, idk, I owned this on DVD long before I even had a GPU, one of the few my Intel chip couldn't run itself...even though its not remotely heavy compared to games today.

You want to be Evie in this for the record if you enjoy stealth. Jacob is more of a powerhouse.

I actually have this installed still right now for when I get an itch for Creed.

On a good note if you buy every creed game and just run around in circles aiming toward objectives you never intent to complete, you ahould never need to buy another game for the rest of time. They're extremely long games even trying to beat them as fast as you can, especially if you do the side missions (which you don't have in origins--at least not in the same sense), syndicate was brutal for those because it had online features for up to four players--I did them all alone, as a fan of tortuous games like mega-man, you should be fine :ROFLMAO:


EDIT:

Sorry it was Unity with the MP missions (again I did all these solo regardless), but Syndicate was still the best and last they made of its kind...right before the series fell apart they seem to have it perfect.

They messed up the two space themed games, so you couldn't get all parts of the ship. Instead, they added the first day. We're losing 16 ARP per day compared to non DRP regions so it barely compensates.
I had the ship the entire time 🤷‍♂️ and I'm getting bankrolled in DRP...which I never have a an issue with myself...even if I have no use for more shit to get wrecked. My steering wheel is still packed away to avoid it.

Intel gamer days is the one time a year they give away enough DRP to actually buy something good.

Many people must be sad about this sordid affair. I hope they'll manage to get enough ARP to get a GOG game from the vault at the end of the month.

They sell Odyssey nearby, and although it's not a historic low, -85% is still very good, plus as far as I understand, with the Gold edition they will give two more games in the package. But the important question is how viable the DLC for Syndicate is, they want almost twice as much as I can't understand how little content with bad reviews?

I know the feeling, I don't like selling skins to buy them... not that I play CS2 too often, but I played a lot of mobile games to get them

Here is just the game + DLC?

Assassin's Creed Syndicate Gold (WW) (SubID 85568) · SteamDB

However, only three of the DLC add missions for the game, and there will be a total of 13 more. Don't know if they are long or worth it to be honest, I've considered that too, and considered even for Origins to buy the season pass since I already bought the base game.

Syndicate doesn't give games. Extra games are given with Odyssey. Maybe I wrote it wrong above.

Creed 3 was also given away and you might have it already, and its more likely to be given away free again and will always be included,...it was not a fan favorite although it is a good game if you can ignore the protagonists existence and just play :ROFLMAO: liberations was actually received much better but was originally a PSVita Game and is short and buggy due the fact.

I can't say your better off buying syndicate over all three games, especially since I paid more for just the DLC for odyssey back when...but I still prefer syndicate over any of the titles included, so if your looking to check out the highs of the series, its the way to go even without the DLC, I don't consider an Assassins Creed game complete without the DLC (and sometimes they weren't--thats not the case here), the Jack the ripper DLC was a dissapointment for most fans for exactly that reason--you gain nothing in the main game for beating it unlike most DLC's, but its a horror based creed so I would have to suggest it for ivo even though they did a piss poor job at that.

Theres also a missing game from the collection in oddysey where your the slave who helps the protagonist. I cant even remember its name since its like a 2 hour game or DLC and was terrible.

Sanity says get oddysey for playtime and value, love for the game says your better off buying syndicate alone without the DLC even and grabbing that later.

Assassins creed 3 unless its included will have you buying more DLC since theres an alternate gameplay version, the slave DLC i mentioned, etc, unless it was included with the Remaster, I burnt that out on Playstation 3.

I hate to say it...but your gonna be alot more poor before your done :ROFLMAO:

Jack the ripper was in truth about a 2-4 hour DLC for an avid player, enjoyable and extremely unique as far as Creed games go...but worth the cost of the game itself? No. I would definitely say Creed 3 and Liberations are the better perks there.

Odyssey will have you busy for longer than origins will, and I never began the second DLC even though I own it. And its the best of those type of games IMO.

Those are the two best of each kind (original ezio saga excluded--AC2, Brotherhood, Revelations), so I would honestly say load rogue up and see if it sparks your interest and choose from there

You can't lose buying Odyssey though with those 2 games so 🤷‍♂️

You really are an unwitting victim that got dragged in huh?
Meanwhile, for some reason I found some very strange fantasy-looking armor and chocobo in the desert and I still find this game very stealthy and very realistic.
You gotta be careful what you say since square actually does a few collabs with creed and one actually had a chocobo in a desert :LOL:

If you find that realistic and stealthy, you'll love the short buggy game (which is actually quite good), your a female assassin who goes into changing rooms and switches disguises like superman :ROFLMAO:
But they really, really overdid it with the number of quests, something about them is just unhealthy.
Definitely a victim...I actually cleared every single one of those and never considered it a chore lol.

If hy chocobo in the desert you meant camel joe, you'll love that guy, gives you a free weapon once every 24-48 hours if your online (or used too)

Whats unhealthy is the amount of those weapons hidden behind helix credits and linked to your save file directly--making full offline play nearly impossible and save syncing screwy--even to this day they still get the 24h clock wrong...this they actually did better in Origins IIRC odyssey is the one where its all flawed. But even playing for months you can't collect all the gear that way--they made it faster than you could.
