April 26 - SciFiBeatlesGleek

Escape plan? when no one’s left walk out the front door.

~ Jacob Frye, Assassin's Creed Syndicate

SciFiBeatlesGleek is a long-time DeviantArtist who offered a YCH with a few Assassin's Creed poses.  I opted for the (joyful) aerial assassination.

Assassin's Creed games are some of the best story telling vehicles around.  The game engine is beautiful and immersive, the dialog fluid, and I've gotten heavily emotionally invested in some of these characters -- they do a great job of compelling you to glorious heroism.

That said, the last one I played was Syndicate (from the quote) and it was a hot mess with a cheeze-ball cop-out story, this is the 9th installment in the series though, so some slack is given, but this felt more like Batman cleaning up a early London rather than any sort of Assassin's Creed I've played.
