History Funny / AssassinsCreedSyndicate

** The entire scene must be witnessed to be fully appreciated. Their body language and expressions are perfect. Even funnier that Jacob's plan ends up completely working - in fact, Sequence 8 cannot be played until at least 3 boroughs of London are conquered, which would have been impossible without the Rooks to work as the brute force in their chain of connections across London.

--> '''Jacob:''' Well, [[BlatantLies we'll look into Gladstone]].

* The fact the top of Nelson's Column is a Viewpoint. Cue one of the twins crouching on the Admiral's head.

* Mary Anne Disraeli. Just... everything about her. You might figure that the wife of a mid-19th century politician would be one of the most stale characters in the game, but nope! She turns out to be positively charming, largely because of how she comes off as such a hilarious [[TheDitz Ditz]]. For example, she helps Jacob find out who the Templar agent in Parliament is only after he helps her slum it in Devil's Acre. Truly, only Mrs. Disraeli would come up with such a bizarre transaction of favors.

* In the middle of the game, Alexander Graham Bell will equip Jacob and Evie with [[ShockAndAwe voltaic bombs]] to test on an incoming pair of Blighters. Whenever it seems like he's finished describing the plan, [[AndAnotherThing he stops them so he can add yet another detail]], from just barely remembering to hand them protective gear (that "should" protect them from the shock) to telling them they should throw their bombs whenever he says the name of a fruit.

* Sometimes the Animus will actually end up translating British slang in the subtitles, for instance resulting in "Lost your bottle (nerve), boys?".

** It doesn't stop with Nelson's Column. One of the viewpoints will end up with either twin crouching on a bronze statue of a ''cockroach''.

* The fact the top of Nelson's Column is a Viewpoint. Cue one of the twins crouching on the Admiral's head.

* When Jacob assassinates James Brudenell he's subjected to a long, hammy speech that has him eyerolling the whole time. When it's finally done, he dryly remarks "What a prick."

--> '''Henry''': *Giving a pistol to each twin* Here, you might need these.

---> '''Henry''': *Giving a pistol to each twin* Here, you might need these.
---> '''Jacob''': Oh, God, I hope so!

* When Jacob assassinates James Brudenell he's subjected to a long, hammy speech that has him eyerolling the whole time.

---> '''Jacob''': Oh, God, I hope so!

---> '''Henry''': *Handing Evie a [[KukrisAreKool kukri]]* Here. I'm sure you can put this to better use than I can.
---> '''Jacob''': *Taking the kukri for himself, eyeing it as if he's found the love of his life* ''What's this,'' Greenie? Assassin Christmas?

** Really, Jacob is a gold mine of funny moments. Especially when his BloodKnight tendencies show themselves.

* After killing Kaylock and taking his train as a mobile headquarters, Evie attempts to get back on track with her plans. Henry listens, but Jacob refuses to do anything until they fix Kaylock's broken grappling hook, his arms crossed like a stubborn child.
--> '''Evie''': ...Jacob? This is serious.
--> '''Jacob''': *As he holds up the broken grapple gun* [[SkewedPriorities I'm not going anywhere until this gets fixed.]]

--> '''Evie''': "...Jacob? This is serious."
--> '''Jacob''': *As he holds up the broken grapple gun* "[[SkewedPriorities I'm not going anywhere until this gets fixed.]]"

* When you meet the Disraelis, one of the new articles in the database happens to be about Mary-Anne's pet corgi, Desmond. Shaun considers it in [[DudeNotFunny bad taste]] from the universe. According to Rebecca, he locked himself into his room with some [[DrowningMySorrows alcohol]] and crying is heard.

* One of the things to do in the game is collect vintage beers, with Shaun giving his analysis with sense data. Many of them are just really bad swill, and some of them having [[TastesLikePurple weird tastes.]] Only one of those beers even makes the proper grade.

* If a carriage is in motion, killing the horse(s) pulling it will cause the carriage to flip over. There is an achievement for doing this five times. The achievement is called "[[WhatTheHellPlayer WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU]]."

'''Rebecca:''' (Translation: Shaun found a millennia-old conspiracy that reached to the highest levels of power imaginable and thought the best idea ever would be to shout and wave at it. -RC)

--> '''Queen Victoria''': You have honored us with your loyalty and your courage. Long may we so strengthen the Empire together
--> '''Jacob Frye''': Your majesty! We will always work to ensure the safety of the people...
--> '''Evie Frye''': But with the greatest respect, our philosophy forbids us from assisting with the expansion of the Empire. [[RefugeInAudacity Perhaps ma'am you could consider putting an end to your imperialist desires?]]
--> '''Queen Victoria''': I understand and respect your position, [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids bound as you are by your creed]].

** The earnestness of Evie's tone and expression followed by Jacob's stunned FlatWhat is what sells it. The Queen's bemused and sarcastic response is also hilarious.

** The earnestness of Evie's tone and expression followed by Jacob's stunned FlatWhat is what sells it. The Queen's bemused and sarcastic response also makes it even more funny.

** The earnestness of Evie's tone and expression followed by Jacob's stunned FlatWhat is equally funny. The Queen's bemused and sarcastic response is likewise pretty funny and subtle.
