    A game that i was afraid to play because i love ezio's trilogy. The game surprised me a lot and i wasn't expecting this kind of quality from Ubisoft.

    It may not be an Assassin's Creed title formula, but it is a great game still

    Successful and fun game to play. Much better than Origins and Valhalla. Don't mind the low score. Give it a chance if you haven't played it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Assassin's Creed Odyssey earns a solid 8/10 from me. The game holds a special place as my first RPG, captivating me in 2019 with its enchanting world and a plethora of awe-inspiring armor and weapons. The stunning graphics were a treat for the eyes, immersing me in a world that felt almost tangible. The initial playthrough, followed by a second, were both delightful and enthralling experiences. The two DLCs were particularly noteworthy, one delving into the mystical realm of Greek Gods and the other reconnecting with the franchise's roots through the Assassin DLC.

    However, I can't ignore some of the game's shortcomings. The vast world, while awe-inspiring, could also be overwhelming at times. The numerous side quests often felt inconsequential, akin to the island boys in 2024. Despite these minor drawbacks, Assassin's Creed Odyssey remains a commendable game, especially recommended for those new to gaming.

    Great game. Really exciting at first. However, after few a hours it becomes monotonous and repetitive. It's fantastic how they've put historical characters into the game. Great world to explore, and interesting story to be a part of.

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey shines as a standout in the mythological trio and holds a special place in the series for me. There are three main reasons why I found the game so enjoyable.

Прекрасная графика, хорошая, как для такой игры оптимизация, не плохой интригующий сюжет имеющий неожиданные повороты, хорошая боёвка с плавными анимациями, в конце-концов - огромный и очень красивый открытый мир. Чтобы понять насколько это шедевральная игра нужно поиграть самостоятельно, и желательно купить, ведь одно дело когда ты играешь на пиратке для ознакомления, а другое дело когда покупаешь по истине одну из двух лучших игр 2018 года (топ 1 игра Spider Man вышедшая в том же году, топ 2 - AC Odyssey). Про сюжет много сказать не могу, ибо будут спойлеры, скажу лишь то, что персонажи и некоторые миссии действительно ставят игрока перед выбором, некоторые персонажи вызывают сопереживания. Единственный минус игры, который я нашёл - перебор с гриндом. Гринда в игре действительно очень и очень много, и речь не столько о корабле который нужно прокачивать, не о навыках персонажа, даже уровни коих в игре 99 особо вопросов и затруднений не вызывают, я говорю и дополнительных навыках которые открываются после достижения 50 уровня. У каждого дополнительного навыка есть стадия прокачки состоящая из 20 очков необходимых для полной прокачки навыка. Их в игре настолько много, что понадобится около 1000 очков опыта, на низкой сложности полная прокачка всех дополнительных навыков может вызвать дисбаланс. Радует, что дополнительные навыки к прокачке не обязательны, но всё же. Expand

    I enjoyed this game very much, I really like the combat in this game, Graphics wise it is AMAZING to view and there is so much going on in the world, village people doing daily chores. The weapon and armor Build system is complex but ounce you work it out is very rewarding. Some quests are repetitive and can get boring but overall this is a great game.

    Dear Ubisoft, I've played this game for exactly 120 hours and in a few hours I will have finished everything in the game. Yes, I loved it, but please make your commercial policies in the games a bit more player-friendly. Don't make a service game either. It is clear that this will not be a good system. I hope you will make an effort to make beautiful and meaningful games. Good game to everyone.

    Artstyle
    The artstyle is beautiful and the enviorment is emersive to you as a player.

    you have 3 diffrent "talent trees" witch you can costomize your charecter to either full force in or stealth or archery to your own liking.

    the storyline.
    the storyline is a really combined storyline and it all net itself to the end.

    Leveling system
    you do level by clearing quest and if you want to level even more you can go to diffrent camps and kill off as many npcs as possible.

    In my own opinion and or you that enjoys as long and intresting RPG game this is one of the best.

    If you want a auto parry hack and slash/ stealth game go onto the older titles of assassin's creed!

    From me this game gets a 10/10 and i would really recommend this game to eveyone that wants a game to play

    The best Assassin's Creed game I have played to date. And I have played AC 1, 4, Rogue, and Origins. It is so addicting that I cannot stop playing this game. I am currently 60 hours in and at level 50 but I haven't even completed 60 percent of the main story, the side quests are so good that I just want to keep exploring and keep playing it. One of the best games by Ubisoft.

    The main and most side missions are great. The world is quite interesting to explore but the side objectives lacking a few 'bosses' are boring. I'd put it at 8.5 but just because of the great main missions will rate it as 9 on this website.

Die DLC´s kann ich ebenfalls empfehlen, vor allem den Atlantis DLC, der knüpft an die Endszene von der Storyreihe des Kults an, also unbedingt vorher komplett besiegen!

    RPG-mäßig richtig gut umgesetzt, viele schöne Dialoge und Entscheidungen, die Stimmen sind 1A und Kassandra ist ein wahnsinnig toller Charakter, ich hab mit ihr fast 180 Stunden lang erkundet. Jedes Fragezeichen auf der Map habe ich jetzt nicht aufgedeckt, außer von allen Inseln, die sind klein und fein. In erster Linie habe ich das gemacht, weil sie immer eine eigene Atmosphäre haben die sich stärker vom Festland unterscheiden als das Festland von Ort zu Ort selbst. Das Festland sieht ja größtenteils gleich aus, entweder Stadt, bergig oder Wald, aber auch da gibt es genügend Unterschiede nur nicht so viele das ich jeden cm davon gesehen haben muss und das muss auch nicht so sein.

    Ich habe alle Haupt-, Neben-, Welt- und Charaktere-, Kopfgeld- und Aufträgsquests die man als Marker auf der Open World oder im Verlauf durch Ortsentdeckung bekommt inkl. 20 von Nachrichtentafeln.
    Die Questreihen sind wie in fast jedem Spiel am genialsten, einfach spitze gemacht.

    Das einzige Contra am Spiel: Sokrates! Ich kann ihn einfach nicht leiden, er ging mir so auf den Sack!
    Und Siegel sammeln, zwei Deppen die dich dauernd mit einer Quest losschicken 3 Polemachen zu legen und sie zu looten um deren Siegel als Beweis zu erhalten, dann kehrst du zurück, gibst die Quest ab und er gibt dir mit 10% neuen und oder erweitertem Text dieselbe Quest etliche Mal erneut, bis es irgendwann heißt "Ein letztes Mal". Dauernd wiederholende Quests die bis Abschluss einfach nicht verschwinden sind echt ka-cke und gehören wenn überhaupt auf die Nachrichtentafel!

    The game name is "Assassin's" , you no longer are an Assassin and even can't do an stealth kill and the line of history in this game is broken...
    People talk that this is beautiful design and huge map, please raise your expectetions... You think that a game that costs 60€ can be only a 30hours exploration and beautiful game?
    This company want to steal your money expending the minimum money as possible copying from the others 10 Assassin's games! They spend the money paying the Reviewers to give 10's and 9's and the Crackers to wait few months to crack the game.

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey is way different from AC games(I didn't play Origins yet.), it has a skill tree and level system which I love. I think this is a good game, but it's not an AC game.

    The latest addition to the Assassin's Creed franchise is truly a wonder and a fresh take on a stale idea. The excellent execution, gameplay and story is only overshadowed by greedy micro transactions, paid XP and awful optimization.

    While AC: Origins was packed with interesting stories, Odyssey is a generic ’Ubisoft sandbox’ in the worst sense, with hundreds of the same-looking places, dozens of ”kill-fetch” quests and almost zero motivation to grind further.
