Thanks for watching. Wow that's a lot. Is that one playthrough, or multiple?

Thanks for watching. Happy machine hunting.

Thanks for watching. I liked Evie, I just wish she had more to do through the game. As you said, Jacob feels like the main character.

@@Bond8789 Syndiacte is one of my very favourite games, but yes, indeed Jacob is the main character. The devs didn't hide this. Evie was never supposed to be considered equal or more than Jacob. But due to slander from game journalism, evie is now inaccurately considered a protagonist. If your at all interested, I'm a huge syndicate fan who went from simply disliking evie due to her being 2 dimensional and poorly suited to a game about victorian gangs, to now out right hating evie! And it's in context for why she was included in the game. Originally, Jacob was indeed the only playable protagonist in the game, and evie didn't even exist as she is today. The game looked much darker and Jacob had the same outfit as George. This bit is important context. A woman called Kim belair and her friends got involved in the games development, fairly late, and they are somewhat famous for changing games to be more "inclusive" but that really just translates to more female and less white. Jacob was actually always supposed to be bisexual, and the games lead writer is in fact a gay man himself. The deep hypocrisy of Kim belair is that she doesn't care about that being inclusive, because she only values inclusion for people like her. And so she essentially blackmailed the syndicate team into creating evie as a playable twin protagonist. During an interview she can be heard complaining that her fellow devs told her Jacob is the main character, and she responded by saying she could manipulate people into thinking evie was the protagonist, by misrepresenting the twins online. You see, Kim belair was originally hired because she is a marketing expert, and so she knows how to manipulate what people think of a product. You can find this interview on a AC sisterhood UA-cam video, titled after the woman who I am referring to here. Anyway, the games development ended up going through hell, and the team had to work backwards and cut a lot out, in order to add evie on time for launch. Kim belair went on to be the founder of the company called "sweet baby inc" who are currently in a lot of controversial conversation for similar reasons as we are discussing now. Kim belair since said "if they (they meaning the development team she is working with) don't see the value in what I want for a game, then I'll scare them with what might happen if they don't do as I ask." She actually said that. You can find her saying this in a variety of articles and videos about her. Just look her up and see for yourself, however take note, many journalists are her allies and lie for her. Jacob is the character shown in every single bit of leaked gameplay, screenshots, videos, development notes, artworks showing story moments are almost always shown with Jacob, and Jacob has 3 times as many concept arts that are all dated sometimes years older than the artworks for evie. Jacob also has artworks of the exact character shown in thr AC victory leaks, and this character is described as "Jacob frye." We can see on a website (if I use its name the comment will he removed for some reason) that is used for game devs to share their work together, and network, and this website has a variety of AC victory stuff. From menus screens to gameplay render screenshots, and even a display of the room people would sit in, when the team would reveal the game. It all shows Jacob frye as the protagonist, both in description, and visibly the "victory protagonist" has Jacob's face, exactly the same as it is in syndicate. The only reason the victory outfit isn't used for Jacob now, is because the art team wanted something that reflects Jacob's gang underworld story better, for his main look. Hence the victory outfit was given to George instead. If your interested, you can also find some cool black flag development stuff on that website as well. Originally, Pearl wasn't a character in syndicate/victory. Roth was, but he had a very different look and narrative role. The character that eventually got split to create Roth as he is now, and pearl, was Jacob's mentor. An older lady with grey hair, a black and red version of Lydia's outfit, and a silver mask to hide a badly injured face. She was the late games plot twist main villain. And the idea behind her character was later recycled into watch dogs legion's Sabine. Legion launched on the first big anniversary for Syndicate, and so many of it's ideas were actually restorations of cut syndicate narrative ideas. Evie eventually replaced thus mysterious mentor/villain to Jacob, but the narrative role of this mentor character was given to Roth and pearl, while evie would be instead, a good guy in the story. You can even spot the necklace thus mysterious mentor character had, on both Lydia, and evie but only on the box art, as evie didn't have it in the actual game. I hope you see for yourself, as I have put a lot of effort into trying to share this, but it isn't easy, as journalists rarely talk about it honestly, and those who support belair, tell lies about reduced female characters, despite the reality being opposite. Note also that the "AC victory project" mod, is a mod to restore that original version of the game. The mod team have seen all the files in game, and researched the games development extensively. They also say Jacob was the only protagonist in AC Victory, and it was indeed Jacob. Evie wasn't a playable character at all. You can check on their nexus page. I hope you gave this a read, as I put loads of time into discovering the truth behind the development for AC syndicate, and I absolutey love the game, so am very passionate about it, and as a result I care that more people know about all of this.

@@chrismoore5333 Thanks for posting that, it was very interesting to read. I am an AC fan, going back to the original game, but that is all news to me. With stuff like that going on behind the scenes, it's no wonder that Ubisoft are in the state they're in.

The best way to describe it, it's like watching aliens try to disguise themselves as humans, but not quite getting the impression right.

@@Bond8789 I like that! I need to give this a try

Sound is a big part of the game, so if need be, turn your volume up, or wear a headset. It'll make a difference, if you're struggling.

Thanks for watching. If I remember that scenario correctly, I think that was a lucky guess. I had to try it a few times, before this, because the game kept directing me to the wrong tracks. I would follow the left/right directions, but they would lead me to the wrong track.

Thanks for watching. 🙂

@@Bond8789 no problem at all. It's refreshing to see a gamer play through who isn't going for a no damage run etc. Nice to see the game being played just like most people do

It's one of my favourites too, and it still looks good. I love the gothic atmosphere around the mansion.

It could be a bug. A problem I keep having, is in the Scenario Mode, when I request a track at a station, I frequently keep being sent to the wrong track! Unfortunately, the devs have moved on from Train Life, so any bugs, won't be fixed.

@@Bond8789 No, the problem for me was that I had to press full stop or comma key to switch the navigation paths in the gps/mini map. The on screen instructions for the mini map are really bad in this simulator.

I think it might be tied to the final choice: Eliminate Killbane or Save Shaundi. As I chose the 2nd option, I got the ending shown.

Thanks. There's lots of Black Widow character creation tutorials. I took one, and further customised it for my playthrough.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.

I'm not sure if it's locked to 30, but it appears ok. Though I have only have 1v1 encounters so far.
