I think each Assassin's Creed game does a great job of crafting iconic-looking protagonists that blends era-appropriate garb with the Assassin's Order flourishes.

Which one has your favorite design? I'll just list as many main game characters in the poll as I can, but any supporting characters/side game protagonists are eligible too (e.g. Shay, Aveline, etc.) as well as the main protagonists that don't fit in the poll (Bayek, Kassandra, etc.)

Say what you will about the game, but I always thought that Connor had the most badass Assassin outfit by far. I always use his outfit if it's available as an option in some of the post AC3 games.

Kassandra, because she really looks like someone who could handle combat physically, which isn't the case with female protagonists very often.

Kassandra in the Amazon set. But if we're going for default look only then the guy from AC Unity. I love the blue

Every single one would look out of place IRL in their own times, save Kassandra and Alexios. So my vote goes to Kass purely because of good and realistic (relatively) inconspicuous designs.

I agree, he has such a cool look. Also I love the little touches, like how his tomahawk is shaped as the Assassin's symbol, which I actually just noticed for the first time!

The classic. Altair.

It was an instant iconic design and I really like how minimalistic it is.

Always loved Ezio's look, even if it also looked far too heavy to run and climb in.

While she didn't star in any of the major mainline games, Shao Jun also has imo one of the best character designs in the AC universe. Shame we didn't see a game starring her besides the Chronicles spin-off games :(

For the "default" looks, Evie looks so damn cool I'd cosplay it, tbh. So I voted for that one.

But honestly, Bayek's black hood armour is the best design in the series and probably my favourite looking armour/outfit ever.

Edit: I don't like AC3, but Connor's outfit is great. Probably my next favorite after Bayek/Aya.

Altair is my favourite but it's too basic, old altair would get my vote if that was an option or revelations Ezio but the base design Connor easily takes the cake.

All the assassins are these fancy tool using covert operatives. But NOT CONNOR, Connor is gonna fuck you up with his axe, nothing matches the efficient brutality of Connor.

I'm a huge fan of Kassandra. I love how tough she looks, lady looks like she could kick your ass.

I'm on the Evie team. I don't give a fuck about Jacob and played him only when forced to by missions. Evie is basically the best part (only part?) of Syndicate.

I'm playing through AC Origins right now, and this is the look I'm rocking! It's so badass. Though it muffles his voice so it's harder to understand him sometimes lol

Bayek has the coolest looking outfits for sure. I'd vote Ezio second.

Why is Bayek not in the poll? Joke thread?

You can hide the helmet piece, I usually do, 'cause I rock the long-haired bearded Bayek and look badass :)

I wonder if I should play AC3 since I have it with the Odyssey season pass....

probably not

Edit: I'm told this is the AC4 guy and not the AC3 guy. Egg on my face.
