Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Spoiler & Story Discussion Thread

You know the drill, all discussion of AC Syndicate's story can be done here without spoiler tags.

Let's start with the big one:

Huge Spoiler below:

You play as the grandaughter-niece of Evie and Jacob, and there is an entire free roam section in WW1 occupied London, and you work with Winston Churchill who wants to recruit you into the secret service.

UNMARKED SPOILERS BELOW
 
I shall use light spoiler tags for this post since it is only a few posts into the discussion, and some unwary fellow might have wandered in.

SPOILERS BELOW


I've been 'spoiled' about the fact that there is a ....
World War I section with a Frye descendant.

I do not know any details however. Is it a main section of the game (several hours long at least) or just a 1 off mission? Are we unable to return to the main timeline to complete side objectives and such after we timeskip(I assume not)? Just curious.
 
The ending is kind of cool, with Abstergo incubating
precursors
. But they seriously need to focus on the modern day stuff with an actual 3rd person character and playable levels. Release a more modern day heavy spin off with less of a budget than the main series for the long time fans if you have to.

Either commit to it or drop it.

That would need actual modern world story, to which they don't want to commit to. All evidenced by the fact that the franchise was supposed to be a trilogy. If they're doing yearly installments, and they don't know when this franchise is going to stop being profitable, they gotta extend that modern day storyline as much as they can.

Also, that huge spoiler is amazing.
 
I wonder if they are going full Marvel with that WW1 stuff and it's basically setting up story elements for next installment?
 
Hmmm...

That twist sounds pretty neat. If it's a more substantial chunk, I'd definitely be interested. Reviews sound pretty standard so far, but I'm still finishing up Unity since I only got it with my Xbox purchase a few months ago.
 
I was pleasantly surprised that they're finally bringing new life back into the first civilization storyline! At the end, what that Juno or Minerva? Now...with the shroud, are they trying to bring back to life Desmond Miles? or another Sage? Remember they still has the remains of Desmond Miles at Astergo.

So another present time cliffhanger like always, meh its like black flag with the wisemen. I wish Ubi just go to the present time and dedicate a full game to the main plot rather to just play 95% on the past and 5% hints or cutscenes of the real plot
