Was this played on pc ? it look amazing

What game is this?
@@user-wi6cz4hh5b walking through London in about 1880
Great! But just one minor thing. London post boxes weren't painted red until 1874. They would've been sage green in 1868, but the hexagonal shape is spot on .
Love the way he's just walking through people and bumping into them like the Bitter Sweet Symphony video.
I’d love to see London at Christmas during this period.
Yes, complete with carol singers and snow. A proper Christmas!
It would not have been a universal holiday in 1860s. In many ways it was evolving. The population in the cities was increasing. A new middle class were influenced by images of what the Royal family were doing at Christmas .
Just watch Muppets Christmas Carol.
Probably the same, but with snow 😊
Great way to escape the modern world for a short period of time
Better to have a walk in the forrest.
@@patrik1684A walk in the woods is good too ❤
The visuals are very clever, period dress, the buildings, horse buses etc. The big let down for me is the daft background audio of people only hurling hate and threats to each other. I dare say in London in 1868 people were also to be heard saying hello to each other, asking how each other is, and passing small talk. The Cockney accents are bordering on ' dodgy' ....they all sound like Dick Van Dyke out of Mary Poppins.
It's crazy isn't it! and I'm a Geordie
And the guy looks like Bill Sykes. It's absolutely stunning nevertheless. I know London reasonably well and the buildings and pavements and kerb stones all look like the ones from the period that still exist. What I think is sometimes missed in reconstructions from the past is that many of the things that still exist now and look very old would have looked brand new then.
I'm a Londoner and I think it looks fantastic. Would have been nice to hear a couple of "Gertchas" though.
It is visually impressive. Could do with a few heaps of horse dung added to the cobbled streets though for extra authenticity.
Visuals are good but need more horse manure on the ground. The paper boys yelling 1 p was not accurate either.
It's lovely seeing London so English. I want to play this game now & walk around some more landmarks, I live in London so its home from home, but this version is much nicer than the real thing now.
Couldn’t agree more
For everyone here who is so confused saying ‘how is this possible?!’ and ‘can you choose to do any walk in human history anywhere?’ Sorry everyone but no it’s because this guy is playing a video game from a franchise called assassins creed. This one (syndicate) in particular, is set in Victorian London in 1868. With it also being an open free roam world, that’s what makes it seem so realistic. Your welcome
If they made a walk animation of any time in history or indeed the perceived future it would really be popular.
Yeah. But that doesn't explain how it's possible.
I'd love a game that I could walk on other cities, other centuries, talk to people, make friends, go to their houses, know how they live. It's like having another life. Why game companies don't create simulations like that ? 🙏👍💥
@@RegnaSaturna Preservation by heritage professionals, research by historians, and animation by artists.
Big part of the realism is the abundance of game HUD such health meters, coins, map navigator, points etc.
Watching this gives me a strange comfort.
WoW... 1868...!! 'Way before my late Grandad was born (in July, 1894) ...
A fascinating experience.
Thankyou for sharing this.😮
👍😊🏴♥️🇬🇧🙂🖖
My Grandmother was born in London 1894 , a different world indeed
The only thing which might make it even more realistic is having more groups of people such as adults with children or friends together. It seems to be just single individuals on the streets.
How about being able to enter any building, and do stuff? Go into pubs and order a mug of ale. Go to Chinatown and enter an opium den and have a smoke.
They don't bother putting children in the game unless it's a character.. All.these games are rubbish. Only ones worth playing are 2, brotherhood and blackflag
This was before Blair opened the flood gates 😢
The good old days when us Brits colonised other countries...and when Brits colonise you, you know you've been colonised!
Oh dear, it didn't take long to find a comment like this.
You have no idea what life was like for most back then do you 😂😂😂😂
@@mrp9023The workhouses.
@@Her.Serene.Feline.Cuteness. Better than the grooming gangs raping tens of thousands of young English girls. You like that.
Stunning, simply beautiful, magical.... If the images are shocking realistic, the sound effects are no less. I really felt like walking across XIX century London! Congrats from Belo Horizonte city, MG, Brazil...
Muito obrigado 🙌
"If the images are shocking realistic..."
They are not.
There was hardship, but in reality you'd see smiling and hear cheery talk or laughter quite often. You'd hear people singing and whistling as they worked, which went on right up till the 1960s. They had things like barrel organs on street corners too.
Very fascinating viewing, I do wish there was more contrast though of well dressed people. If you look at original Victorian archives of photographs I am always impressed at how well the average person dressed. Neat white aprons on children and starched linen etc. Also, as someone else pointed out so many examples of people threatening each other like they are in a pub brawl not balanced by normal conversation. London has lots of green squares and parks which would have been nice to feature.
Who is this strange, solitary, unspeaking Englishman purposefully striding the 1868 mean streets of London? His clothing seems anachronistic, as if he were dressed more for 1848. He has a slight look of the sailor as if he served on British merchant marine commercial vessels.
He looks to be in his mid-to-late 20s, the prime of his life. His height is about 5'10" at minimum but no more than 6'0". His build is mesomorph athletic and he looks more than capable of defending himself even against more than one ruffian or hooligan who is foolish enough to accost him. More, he is probably concealing weapons under his thick seaman's coat. He probably brandishes a large Bowie knife for primary defense and a much smaller back-up knife for last-ditch defense and as a tool. He might also be carrying a small pocket pistol for extreme instances of self-defense. He is not leaving his personal defense solely up to his fists. Look at his left forearm. It is protected by a heavy, decorated sleeve probably of stiff leather reinforced with pieces of decorative metal. It is a forearm defense against assailant knives and cane swords. His right arm appears to have some kind of reinforcement at the back of the elbow. It could be a round piece of metal intended for striking back at assailants at very close range. He is clearly prepared for fighting yet clearly does not invite confrontation. That is not his purpose. His purpose is something else clandestine and important but one that might require physical altercation.
One imagines he is not poor. On the contrary, he likely carries a good amount of paper money and gold and silver coins in his pockets. When evening falls, he will avail himself of a decent quality tavern or inn for a hearty dinner then a modest, small but clean room and bed for the night. He could spend more but by nature he is frugal but not miserly with himself.
Who he is, what is his name, and what is his purpose other than aimlessly striding about London has yet to be revealed.
An excellent description
Even with all the problems of the Victorian era,they're nothing compared to now. I'd love to go back and see this era and maybe stay for a while.
Yeah child labour, rampant un checked child abuse, child mortality, disease, filth, pollution, children sold into slavery, no women's rights and domestic abuse perfectly acceptable, work houses, homeless kids of all ages...I can go in and on if you wish?
@@mrp9023 Give it 2 years, you'll see how silly your comment looks.
You will also bring back smallpox, cholera, typhus and syphillis to the present, you'll have to be quarantined for a a very long time to make sure the diseases have run their course with you and no longer a carrier.
@@colinvespa4709 True there's that risk,but if my time travel somehow made me immune that'd be worth the traveling.
wow assassins creed looks awesome. love to immerse myself in this world
I'd be surprised to see a bloke with a cameraman following him
From an English sentimental nostalgic viewpoint, it appears the Golden Age of Victorian England was from about 1880 to 1913. It's not all roses as most would admit but they would still be fascinated living in that time frame to experience it. For Americans, our closest analog would be New York City or Boston in that same time line.
Hogging the path, I think he time traveller from the Verve
Looks very realistic to me although the distance from St Mary in the Strand to Trafalgar Square seemed too short.
I actually thought that the church was St Clement Danes - and that for some reason St Mary Le Strand had been omitted.
The sledgehammer of reality.. Victorian Style.love it
Ahhh.....1868. A London with no Pisslam in sight!
No male supremacist flags either 🏳️⚧️
The people who built the greatest empire the world has ever seen 🇬🇧
What, the American Empire?
@@Vroomfondle1066 no American empire doh!
Actually no. And it's all over now.
@@Vroomfondle1066 no American was owned by the British. Silly 😏
Beautiful! the time Machine! I got the wrong place of birth and time! 😁 London at the end of the 19th century was my ideal place! Although from the novels I've read about London, I imagine it to be very young, with lots of happy kids, lots of laughter and a more optimistic atmosphere. But it's very well done, congratulations!
33 years on, 1902, Jack London wrote "People of the Abyss.". This film would make a nice companion piece for that book.
As an ex costume and set designer, couldn't fault it! The men's clothes could ve been fashionable in 1968🧐Looks like Bill Sykes looking for Nancy!😄
this is brilliant, not a jihadist in sight
Or Boris 'fucking Johnstone '..thank god?
Yes no Asians afro carribeans in sight this is when Britain was great
@@alexanderbrydone9873 Nah! Asians and Afro Caribbeans are the lifeblood of this country!🙂
Yall watch too much tv 😂
@@AllthewayupG Queen Victoria ❤️
Well done love it so relaxing !! Beautiful game assassins creed ! What great city to walk about in at the time , !!! the time and effort you have put into doing this is outstanding thank you so so much…..
Fascinating re-creation, though a little bit sinister. The walker looks a bit like Bill Sykes. I do wonder whether all the streets would have had pavements with kerbs . . .
This was brilliant to watch
No hijabs!!!👍👍🕊️😃🕊️
But a lot of women wearing something to cover their hair nevertheless
What a racist Mentality
Yes, scarves, but not for religious reasons
@@Useaname what about nuns. Are they allowed to wear headwear??
@@djvincekline7338 we don't need nuns
Fascinating to watch, cool to see Temple Bar in situ! ❤
1. Womens' clothes at beginning don't look so 1868 with no petticoats, but in later better n'hoods, you see large petticoats; 2) Mens' hats-derbies and Peaky Blinders-look more 1885. 3) Some upper floors of buildings look French Second Empire mansard roofs: NOT 1868; 4) hanging baskets on street lamps not 1868, 5) No telegraph wires along the streets 6) Wa National Gallery at Trafalgar Square in 1868? Cheers.
I am like you,a stickler for details. If you're going to put so much effort into a game at least research the period accurately
Doesn't seem too Londonesque until you glance at St. Paul's and Trafalgar Square, but clearly there is ambiguity to detail versus the period in question.
Definitely not enough coughing and smoking
Felt like I was actually there brilliant really enjoyed thanks
Some of the punters have had their Readybrek.
Just imagine being a time traveller with a beat box on your shoulder belting out music. The looks you would get!
I'd love to travel back in time to this era and take some Motown or something to get them all ''dancing in the street''
no cars. Paradise.
Do you support electric cars?
Just a ton of horse shit!
Don't worry, live another 20yrs you might get your wish!
But tons of horse manure on the roads and footpaths - complete with smell.
You have no idea what life was like back then do you? 😂😂😂😂😂
Absolutely fantastic. Seems very realistic. Would love to have experienced it for real.
Absolutly incredible. Yo just made me go back 150 years, away fron this shit epoque of madness. Love it. Thanks.
Love this. Time traveller great graphics and colour.
WHAT ,,,, NO KEBAB SHOPS , NO HALAL BUTCHERS , WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO.

I always count down looking for the first predictably crypto racist troll comment on any video that shows any city of yesteryear. Yours is No.8 down. Surprised - usually sooner.
@@bbbf09 Why are you here, darling? Certainly not to reminisce.
He looking for a Macdonald's 🍔🍟
Update, London early August 2024, can I borrow your time machine to go back to 18..whenever, please!?
Same
Enjoy pressganging, polio, the great stink, Jack the Ripper, syphilis, leeching, dying without antibiotics, open sewers, no radio, no telly, no iPhone, no Netflix, but hey, no darkies either so it’s all worthwhile 🙄
@@juniper150 Couldn't have put it better myself.
Going back in a Time Machine and following some with your iPhone. Great no tourists, they are all very aggressive and ready to fight 😂
Looks like Hawksmoor churches. Outstanding, could watch for hours.
It amazes me how many people don’t realize that this is a video game. J thought everyone was aware of the existence of this franchise. I guess not.
I love the Trafalgar Square scenes
Wow , look at that horse and trap fly at 19:27 , fleeing from the rozzers obviously !
What's missing from the scene and i was unaware of it was the lack of horses and horse droppings the roads were covered in the stuff really covered and no matter how they tried it was a major problem only saved by the health to it's citizens by the motor car
The closest we will get to time travel! So a privilege. But none of us alive today can know how close to reality it is. Yes a lot of single walkers but lovely!
I imagine it as a more polluted and smoggy place
...only in the East End
What I this based on, maps, photos, architectural plans? I am a purist and want to know how accurate it is
I wish Rockstar would make a game taking place in Victorian times like how they did with RDR2. It would be so fu@king amazing 👏 and imagine you can kill the infamous Jack the Ripper! 😮
The thing they have got massively wrong here is the cleanliness of the roads (and pavements. There are many accounts of Victorian roads being covered in a massive layer of horse dung - literally many inches deep. It was a real problem and this was the era of peak horse ownership and numbers.
now just get rockstar to turn this into grand theft london
The next gta game, after gta 6 should be in London and surrounding countryside. Its been too long since we have had a gta based in london.
The best of luck. Horace of Finchley. His chairs been broken outside Sainsbury. RIP. 🙏❤
Looks a lot more appealing than today.
I'd like to go there and talk to famous people. In the future, it will be possible to have all centuries and people available. ❤
This is amazing, with few innacuracies or inconsistencies
But Trafalgar Square in this video seems very different from how I think it would have looked in 1868. I think for example that Smirke’s building on the west side of the square had already been built by 1868 but it does not appear in the video. Also I think Northumberland House was still standing in 1868. But I couldn’t see it.
The first tube line opened up in 1863.
Amazing, its like a time machine.
I just replied to a crazy man who said all Ubisoft games are lifeless lol. this is an Ubisoft game (Assassin Creed Syndacate) does it look like the world they recreated is lifeless? lol. It's incredible isn't it?
Anyway you should have looked around a bit more to show the courtyards the gardens the small roads where you can walk too.
Alot of the signs look like they are electrified but when did illyminated signs arrive, far later surely
And you can walk almost anywhere you like without encountering a violence gang 😅
If you listen carefully you hear very aggressive people everywhere
Are you joking? There was plenty of violence in Victorian London. Just google it! We live in violent times even today, things don’t change much. Trouble today though, there’s not much of a deterrent. Then, they flogged them or hanged them. Rehabilitation is best if it can be achieved.
@arriesone1 of course, I was referring to how he's walking through the game with very little trouble. If it was the same time era, in real life, I'm sure there would have been a few streets off limits.
Agreed - the visuals are striking (though how close they are to how how it actually would have been is difficult to say). Lots of abusive language about - I'm pretty sure there were nice things being said too. Not much litter about.
@nowhereman There is film available from 1800s in London on YT. My ancestors are Londoners. Times were harsh but it was still possible to get an education if you paid a modest sum, unhindered by modern day leftists driven state “education”.
Love the pidgins flying. Nice feature.
Dog's, dead horses,nightsoil,rats....
Its a little known fact, but everyone in Victorian London was constantly threatening one another.
1868 had cholera, TB, and high infant mortality, but still better than 2024.
Yet no lockdowns... funny how we're all here today.
So clever thank-you
Some of those streets look far too wide!
this
The streets were a lot more crowded than that - horse and cart traffic jams, etc. seems a decent simulation otherwise. The lions around Nelson's Column should look newer given that they were installed only in the previous year (1867).
When buildings and streets were beautiful.
-Feels like I'm actually back in time!
now i got to buy the game lol
Absolutely brilliant
There were so many thousands of German immigrants living in this part of east London at this time that it was nicknamed Little Germany. So it would have been nice to have seen some German bakeries, street bands, bookmakers and sugar factories. But anyway it looks terrific.
In 1868, some if not most of the buildings shown would have been quite young, but they are depicted as being very shabby and much older than they are. As for realisticity, there's too many drunks and too many women walking around without a male accompanying them.
Not a black man or a Muslim anywhere. Just about everyone British Happy days !!!!
That is just what I was thinking 😂. But then you also had a %60 infant mortality rate and Dickensian poverty.
No, but we were all over countries where muslims and black men came from weren't we? Perhaps if we hadn't had such a prodigious and glorious empire we might not be reaping the bountiful reward of immigration...
I think I saw Jim Davidson at one point 😮
@@johnjobs3027is this part of a video game?
@Vroomfondle1066 not really, no mass immigration of whites to drastically change any of those cultures took place. How much different is India today, demographically than it was during the 19th century? Not very... countries that were sparely populated like Australia was transformed yes but the ones like India of African countries it was more of a business & trade thing. Countries that already had a long-term term civilisation were pretty much allowed to continue unlike the Spaniards who wanted to catholicise the whole population.
Truly fascinating...
EXCELLENT
É fascinante ❤
He’s walking quite quickly…
This is awesome! One of the most
amazing creations I’ve ever seen!
What would be the best ever idea:
Do another set in 1888 in Whitechapel on a tour of the (now demolished) Jack the Ripper murder sites!
It would attract millions of viewers!
The pavements look much better in 1868 and no potholes!
WHAT THE ----?? HOW IS THI DONE ? IS IT A NEW TECHNOOGY ? ANYONE ?
It's from a game called Assassins Creed Syndicate. It is a game from the very famous video game franchise Assassin's Creed. This specific game (Syndicate) plays in London in the 1860's, that means in the Victorian Era.
💥 I'd love to stay all day long walking there and meeting other people, talking with them, making friends, going to their houses, having another life on that and other centuries. Would be amazing ! ❤
The roads look pretty similar to how they are now.
Akyn to bein in + seing a wierd 'time~slip'!,🥹& expected to hear Cockney tones,+also London'slang'😏
Impressive....but surely not everyone snarled or was angry back then!
Ah - now that brings back memories
Bishops gate station look Paddington
No horse crap!
No, I saw a little bit.
in france they used a sort of diapers for horses
14:55 👍
No sh!tstain sk!ns
I love London I feel it's my country aml iving Pakistan Hyderabad still we have historical places those made by British
as good as it is, would be awesome in VR
