Storyline has a bit of a spice in it, a 'WOAH' catch but is otherwise plain, go kill xyz ppl or steal xyz quests over and over. Your combat is a button-mash with a few kicks and dodges for extra effect but no real advantage (i mean u can just mash your way through most fights anyway).
    The enemies will scale up with you and those even 1 level above (at sub-lvl 10 atleast) will be impossible to kill.

    The AI is plain dumb - you hide in clear vision, i.e., just out of their field of view but in CLEAR view of all peasants NPC watching you lurk around but ignoring you. You score a hit and nearby soldiers chase you away - you obviously outpace them. The chase is simple they walk after you then they look around for 5 sec then they return to their post as if nothing happened until you repeat the process.

    This is entirety of this game you keep leveling up and get more 'stats' on your gear but combat is the same. There is smartness or subtlety as it was in the original AC games where you actually felt like an assassin lurking around. Now you just feel like a player grinding to get lvls    … Expand

    Its a good game but very repetitive, the world is gigantic and there's so much things to do but the lack of variation makes the game longer than it should be. Graphics are really good and the rpg system is cool.

    Oyuncu topluluğu hakikaten kafayı yemiş. Taş gibi oyun işte. Combat mekaniği, silah ve düşman çeşitliliği yeterli, gizlilik yerinde, yan görev kalitesi origins'in aksine oldukça iyi, origins'teki gibi seni yan göreve zorlamıyor, yarattığı dünya ve görsel tasarım yine çok başarılı, mis gibi oyun işte.

    Good game after a little bit boring Assassins Creed Origins.
    But too large map with tonnes of garbage on it.
    Beautiful sea after Assassins Creed Black Flag.
    Good graphics, normal performance, not so many bugs for me in 112 hours of gameplay.

    This game was a cash grab that doesn't respect the players time. They stretch the gameplay time out by making you travel 20 km over water with nothing in sight other than enemy ships. Each mission is so far from each other that you might as well do youre work while leaving the game running.

    Stealth is practically non existant. You try to stealth through an area, you will fail either because theres not too many options for stealth, or because you're not at a high enough level to assassinate someone yet . And you can never be at a high enough level because the enemies level will increase with you.

    The game literally has no relaation to the assassins brotherhood, other than a few hints of templars (formerly).

    It literally breaks the world that assassins creed built, with no fictional monster like medusa. wtf.

    Ubisoft now implented an rpg system that has no depth to it at all. Wasn't even necessary
    Combat was definitely the best of assassins creeds series.

    Were this not an ac game, it would have been decent. But it just ruined everything the series built up to this point.

    Also there is literally no explanation given as to why the main character had to jump into the animus for this character.

From The amazing Story, the great boss fights with mystical creatures, this game has something for almost everyone to enjoy! I love how it takes the best game mechanics from all the other AC games and fits them together perfectly. But it isn't without flaws, The story could've been shortened down, The leveling system should be fixed, and like all Ubisoft game, At points the Controls are down right Rage Inducing. But through all this the game is great. The naval combat is super fun, and Even the normal combat is great(Something I thought AC lost long ago). I Haven't even finished the entire game yet even though I've been playing on and off since November 2018. If you are a RPG fan and you are starved for games this will be like a 5 course 5 star meal! I seriously cannot recommend this game more! this game has given me hope for Ubisoft once more!… Expand

    Cons.
    1. Poor optimization on PC.
    2. Microtransactions sneaked in single player game. Glad they are truly optional if you are into doing side questing.

    I am truly amazed by the sheer amount of negativity towards this game. I mean sure there are some scummy things Ubi has pulled that's why it's not a 10/10 game but it's still no 6. I mean Syndicate was boring AF and it still outscores this game in user reviews. I don't care for critic reviews as they can be bought and are mostly disconnected to their audience these days but i expected better user scores for this game.

    The Pros heavily outweighs the cons for me. Biggest con in any AAA game these days is lack of optimization for PC hardware. It still is evident here. Then Ubi sold microtransactions that are gameplay altering which is another con. But as i said they are optional and in real sense optional, not Like EA's FIFA like optional. I never felt the need to buy those XP boosters at all for progression as i like exploring and doing some side questing all the time. And as for gear, well nothing in store outshines anything you get in normal gameplay stat wise. So as scummy as that practice is, this game is not Microtransactione mess by any stretch. I guess direction that this series has taken may be a con to some AC series fans but it's no big deal for me. I am not purist. If the game is well made and let's me immerse into the story and world then it's ok to deviate from it's predecessor. Many fans didn't think even AC black flag as a 'true' assassin's creed game, may be they are right but that still doesn't make Black flag any less enjoyable. I haven't played AC 1 and AC 2 but played every other release of this game and this game has to be the second best of the games i played of this series. Second only to black flag. I miss the stealth gameplay and staying true to the lore of assassins which i feel is missing to the level of non existent in the origins and odyssey. Witcher 3 impact is clearly visible but as i said, it's still a very enjoyable game. You get to do vast amounts of exploration, the side questing is well written, main story is okayish and your choices do have an impact on the outcome. The dialogue writing is good too.

    Let's address the SJW element, well they are there but for most part doesn't come off in your face. I still can't get over the fact that you can choose the gender of the ancestor and let's say you want to implement that for the sake of new direction you want to take the game in, at least make that well not superficial like the way it's implemented in the game. Every thing including dialogues and how world reacts to you is same irrespective of who you choose to play as. I mean that's like missing the whole point of these kind of choices, there have to be different outcomes, different how world looks at you, treats you, but no Ubisoft doesn't want to be bothered with those details, for them the peloponnesian world is all like it's in modern times and there is absolutely no difference in how people treat you, speak with you if you were a man or woman. Alexios should have different dialogue options at least in some quests and some quests to have different ways to complete them so does Kassandra. But apparently big brawny female warriors was a common thing in ancient greece according to ubisoft and people won't be surprised to see a female mercenary at all. That kind of nuance can't be expected from any game DEV so the purpose is not to single out Ubisoft specifically here, most game devs are culprit of the same mistakes.

    To sum it up, AC Odyssey is a brilliant action RPG with some meaningful choices having impact on outcomes with decent side quests, sprawling beautiful landscapes and full of secrets and things to do. The game's negatives won't deprive you of any enjoyment if you are not playing with any prejudice. The concerns related to Microtransactions are valid and even though they don't spoil this game but we must call this out. The optimization should be done properly as people pay same price on PC for this game too. All in all, at least for me, this has to be the best AC game since 2014. Worth playing with all its expansions.    … Expand

Yes, it's different to the older games (Unity was the last proper 'Assassin's Creed' in my opinion) but the game that's there...if you love beautiful open world RPGs and Greek Mythology wrapped in sci-fi then just buy it. I have never once had to grind, (although I have been doing all side quests because I genuinely love moving around in this world - so maybe if you just do main missions only it gates you off, wouldn't know.) I have not bought a single microtransaction and not once been tempted. I've not really enjoyed games that level up with you like this (Oblivion being a case in point) but with the extra skills you can get you still feel a sense of progression and I forgot about it almost immediately. The one complaint I do have is the male protagonist. I started with him but his voice was so campily over the top I restarted with Kassandra and then felt guilty about not using her from the start. She is blessed with awesome voice work and Alexios fits better as an overly dramatic Deimos. I'll miss Kassandra and the world I've inhabited through 3 months of lock down when I finally finish Fate of Atlantis. Will give it 2 years then pick up a polished copy of Valhalla with all DLC to continue the journey. :)… Expand

Following the footsteps of Origins, Odyssey is a full blown RPG game. Many people compare it to Witcher 3. I'd say it's a child of the two as stealth is still highly encouraged. RPG elements sure had positive and negative effects on the game but I think it's not the elements' fault but rather Ubisoft's implication. Lets get my frustrations out of the way as there is but one. You have 3 damage types. Hunter for the bow and it's skills, warrior for melee combat and skills, assassin for assassinations and its skills. Because I prefer stealth, I opted to max my assassin damage as I had trouble with my assassin damage not being enough. So I only put on gear that increased my assassin damage and also warrior damage in case I screw up and have to go into the combat. This made my hunter damage so low that past a certain point, I didn't fire a single arrow. People also mention that you have to grind for levels If you want to progress in the story. This didn't affect me beacuse I already willingly try to do all side missions. They didn't feel like a chore at all.
    Now, this game's not all negative. You get a huge world albeit a bit empty. Graphics are top notch albeit poorly optimized for pc but you can take care of that with a quick google search. The story really grabbed my attention. Combat had some welcome changes. Microtransactions didn't bother me at all. What can I say it's overall a good time. Buy if you can and want.    … Expand

Normally I don't like Ubi AC and other games because they are so whacky social justice perverts and the whole series is antichristian to the core. It should really be called antichrist's creed because that's what it is meant to be by those round hats at ubi. The horrid talk about being developed by different weirdos at the first is so hypocritical it's perverse. Sensitivity to everything except western christian culture, wankers. This applies less to the last two AC games because it was before all that, but in Origins you can see the attempt to equate Bayek, the medjay (magi), with Christ which is just perverted garbage. You have to play that story and the Sinai DLC to get that though. The round hats and their buddies are always scheming to program the goy for their world slave state they want so bad.
    ---Apart from all that this is a good game that goes back to 450 BC or so, it's not educational or historically accurate as the stalinist/commie/1984 ubi would have you believe. It's huge, varied missions and environment are amazing. I just regret only being able to play it at 900p medium settings for ~60fps on my laptop. Drops lower in high npc areas etc but on average is close to that. It's a huge game that you can take hundreds of hours to completely finish or just go through the campaign. I use a trainer to cut out grind so that wasn't an issue for me. I wish they would have made kassandra more female and not sjw pc manlike, the one thing they really needed to copy from witcher 3 is Cyri's body type and combat but this does copy a lot from that game, like origins did as well. I find the mission tracking structure to be annoying at times as it breaks up the flow of a mission, sometimes sub-missions it won't auto track and you have to go find it in the menu to track, if you take on lots of missions that can be hard to do. I love the hawk mode as well, but I don't need a non removable prompt telling me to use Ikaros, let me do it my way. Too many hand-holding prompts in general. But there is so much you CAN do if you want that it's mind boggling, there's the Kosmos Cult, the war campaign, the ship missions, the DLC's and numerous side missions on top of the sizeable main story. Ubi needs to remove the excessive DRM though as that's probably a big reason this game is not too scalable and for even high end systems isn't consistent. A Gog release would be great or just a patch removing all that stuff after 2+ years would be nice.    … Expand

O fim do jogo, ou seja, o ponto em que se atinge o ápice da historia principal, que é a reunião da família de Kassandra ou Alexios, não é tão impactante, e também não gera comoção, é muito artificial. As outras missões como a dos portões de Atlantis, possuem até uma narrativa boa, mas a conclusão poderia ser muito melhor, com um tom mais épico, das quatro missões que existem para se encontrar os artefatos, a do minotauro foi a mais bem conduzida. As quests referentes ao culto secreto, ainda não completei todas, mas até o dado momento achei bem repetitivas, me restam menos que dez cultistas para terminar.
    Em suma o jogo é bom, me prendeu por algumas dezenas de horas, mas acredito que poderia ter sido muito melhor em questão de narrativa, que é o principal ponto negativo do jogo na minha opinião. O gameplay parece um pouco inferior ao do Origins, mas nada que possa estragar a experiencia nesse sentido. Os gráficos realmente são muito bons, o mundo é muito vasto, mas acredito que poderia ter mais coisas diversificadas no lugar de uma grande área para se explorar, quero dizer que de certa forma o jogo é também superficial em sua diversidade de coisas, assim como nas histórias contadas.    … Expand

    Pros :
    Ancient Greek
    Visually Stunning
    Facial Animation looks so advanced
    Map is Big
    RPG Element that i've really liked
    Fun combat style
    SOME Interesting quest

    Cons :
    - The story, it's really started really well, how complicated and somehow make me hyped up to continue, but kind of dissappointing in the end because how dull it is (especially the main odyssey story), the cutscene has really a good potential but end up boring and basic.
    - First i play this game, too many resemblance to the Witcher 3 that hard to ignore. that's why i directly compared the game while i play. nothing beats the dialogue, well-written story and character, and interesting quest, some good jokes in The Witcher 3, AC Odyssey meanwhile is just low level below in term of all that aspect compared to The Witcher 3. but, in term of gameplay and combat mechanics, sure AC Odyssey win a big part

    good game for casual game, you will enjoy it because nothing can beat Ubisoft making a interesting map, just some vital part that could make this game perfect but they messed it up, 7/10 for me    … Expand

    - gráficos do ambiente
    - fidelidade ao mundo grego antigo. Embora seja uma obra de ficção, o jogo se esforçou em apresentar a cultura grega o mais próximo possível do que realmente foi (baseado nos registros que foram preservados)

    ---> Pontos negativos:
    - Voice acting irregular. Em alguns momentos a "dublagem" era realista e passava emoção aos personagens, em outros momentos não representava adequadamente as emoções que o personagem deveria apresentar. Ex: personagem deveria estar puto e falava com uma voz neutra
    - Censura incoerente. O jogo é classificado como "mature", ou seja, 17 anos ou mais, porém em alguns pontos trata o jogador como uma criança de 10 anos. Ex: Protagonista eviscera um NPC adversário enfiando a lança na bunda e a corta até o pescoço (ok, mature game); por outro lado, não tem uma cena de nudez no jogo inteiro, o que é incoerente com o período retratado e com a faixa etária. Nem no puteiro, as pessoas ficam peladas.
    - Romance. Os romances no jogo são hiper genéricos e não captam um desenvolvimento emocional do protagonista. Todos os romances seguem a fórmula: encontra o NPC, faz um trabalho/favor para ele, recebe em "sexo". PS: Isso se pode chamar de sexo, pq a cena é cortada e volta ao gameplay normal.
    - Leveling. Se você não conseguem progredir na main story, se não fizer as sidequests. A diferença de nível é um problema no jogo, assim se o mapa está no nível 30, vc tem que estar no nível 29 pelo menos. E, chega um determinado momento do jogo que você tem que fazer sidequests apenas para "upar" de nível para seguir na main quest. Patético, quer fazer o player comprar "burst" de XP.
    - Sidequests são rasas e repetitivas
    - Opções de diálogo. Muitas opções são: ou falsas (independente do que você escolher, o resultado será o mesmo); ou são indiferentes (se você mata ou poupa os inimigos, nada muda)    … Expand

Unfortunately the 5 minute ending is a huge disappointment and felt undeserved for the main character.

    Voice acting's quality is below average and so are the stories of its interactive characters. Investing any interest in them was nearly impossible. Their faces are emotionless and Ubisoft solves the race diversity by making people of color into white people but with a different skin texture. Also why bother adding dialogue choices when those choices have no impact in the game at all.

    Map is thankfully beautiful with every frame worthy to be a poster but the size of the map is overwhelming especially when its content is repetitive and tiring. The combat system is turned into another Witcher inspired game. Stealth is no longer the main focus, apparently shooting an arrow to head cannot kill a person.

    It's known to everyone that AC games are not historically accurate but this game takes a deep turn to the sci-fi zone and completely lost the identification of Assassins Creed.    … Expand

    On top of that historical locations, and occasionally some background on the mythology surrounding them.

    Gameplay is good - though not what I would expect from an AC game.
    Not even the climbing works properly... THE CLIMBING

    The other beef I have with the gameplay is the level system and the whole idea of having to constantly play around with your gear.
    Like - you could after every encounter go ahead and update your gear with the newest and best items. And the UI constantly reminds you that there's new items for each and every slot so it's a constant notification fest. Like... go away please.

    So, what you are actually supposed to do however is building legendary gear sets and upgrading them, and switching between those sets based on what you want to do.
    And if you don't do that and have a special assassin set, you won't kill even the lowest of soldiers with stealth attacks.
    This bad.

    Upgrading items is very pricey though - so you'll end up running around with gear that is 10 levels lower because you can't afford to upgrade it. I'm not 100% sure but I bet you can insert coins to buy items... otherwise I see no reason for this design.
    This bad.

    And then there's the issue that you can't possibly, due to the level system, just play through the main story and be done with it. You absolutely have to do side quests in order to level up.
    This bad.

    All in all however, it's a good game - I really liked Cassandra and the other major NPCs.
    Really funny side quests - totally worth.

    A step back after Origins. The game is ok, but the plot is not very intersting, the gameplay gets repetitive soon and many missions like the battles or the naval parts are fun at first because they add nothing to the experience.

    * Roaming music is excellent, along with the theme music (although they borrowed the direct theme from Assassin's Creed 2 and Ezio.
    * Mercenary system was enjoyable in the way it functioned, essentially causing boss units to come looking for you when you build up notoriety.

    Cons:

    * No Multi GPU Support - inexcusable on a AAA title that has payed licensing fees for multiple performance-impacting DRM layers (Denuvo + VMProtect) that don't prevent piracy.
    * Layla Hassan - she deserves her own bullet point for just how awful of a character she is. I mean almost every scene she's in is absolutely insufferable cringe. Another Mary Sue character like Rey Palpatine who's the "bestest evar" at everything she does.
    * Female character Kassandra written as canon protagonist. Too much social justice from Ubisoft these days.
    * I am not a fan of Layla & the present-day story as it's just so convoluted - they've really dropped the ball on it over the last 5-7 games. Basically since Desmond died it's been garbage that has failed to really anchor the present day to ensure everything makes sense. I miss Desmond still and the original crew. Ubisoft really screwed up in killing him off. Layla is a terrible character that I keep hoping will be killed as soon as possible.
    * Too much mystical crap in these games - they are clearly trying to copy The Witcher games' high fantasy universe by bringing in monsters and magical items. Isu artifacts are excepted from that, but too much magical stuff happening that really ruins these games. This isn't a high fantasy game with magical fireswords and mystical giant monsters and things of that nature - it's just absurd.
    * No information database - these were invaluable in earlier games.
    * The eagle used for scouting is a bit over-used by Ubisoft. It made sense in Far Cry Primal and was a stretch with Bayek in AC Origins...they need to stop re-using so many mechanics over and over and over.
    * Combat system is very clunky. Even worse than Origins. Some things are improved in terms of timing like Parrying, but overall the targeting and control system is clunky and chaotic. AC3's was by far the best.
    * The romance options lack sex scenes - Ubi needs to man up and not be afraid of sex scenes or showing women looking sexy.
    * WAY WAY WAY too much homosexuality in the game both present day and in Greece.
    * Present day story is just so poorly constructed - the games don't really flow together properly anymore because of how badly Ubisoft has bungled the present day story.
    * Essentially non-existent stealth mechanics - this is an open-world combat game that's basically a copy of Witcher 3, just minus all the great things that made Witcher 3 a masterpiece. I don't really consider this game or Origins to be Assassin's Creed games - they have the title and references to animus technology, but that's about it - totally missing the mechanics that would make them an AC game.
    * The RPG mechanics are terrible - can't tell you how many times I had to put about 20 arrows through a target's head to kill him, or hidden blades.
    * Can't fast travel while on the ship to various ports.
    * Horse movement mechanics are not very good - can't tell you how many times I've had my horse decide to jump into the ocean or off a mountain when I was not heading in that direction at all.
    * Excessive feminism from Ubisoft yet again...changing history to have women doing things they never did back in those times. I don't think it's too much to ask for historical accuracy with the laws and histories of people.
    * Wish there had been a little more to the Aspasia romance option to develop a better ending for the protagonist. It's so limited story-wise that it feels like an incomplete end-game. She was such a beautiful girl, and historically she can't be killed by Alexios so they should have allowed a better end-game romance option with Aspasia.
    * Game is WAY WAY WAY too long. ~220 hours for me in one playthrough doing probably ~90% of the game. AC games shouldn't go longer than 50 hours at the high end. Ubi just shoves too much side crap into the game.
    * Legacy of the First Blade DLC - First two chapters were fantastic, but in typical Ubisoft fashion, destroyed at the end with bad storytelling and narrative decisions.
    * Fate of Atlantis DLC - overall not a good DLC. Some story aspects were good, but mostly it was incredibly boring with awful map traversal.

    Gameplay Length: ~220 Hours

    Final Rating: 4/10 - I do not recommend buying this game - if you decide to do so, wait for an extreme sale - I'm talking like 90% off.    … Expand

    - Absolutely piss poor optimization for PC
    - Egregious MTX attempts

    I am a newcomer to the AC series, and this game does not make a great first impression. I will admit that this game is incredibly gorgeous with respect to the texture details and classical Greek architecture. It is truly a top notch effort from the graphic and environmental designers. I also thought the interwoven story between Kassandra and her family was decent enough to keep me interested. The gameplay really leaves a lot to be desired though, and while I thought some of the unlock-able abilities were cool, the sheer repetitiveness started to get to me.

    This game's combat cycle is awful, it was pretty fun at first for me as I enjoyed the similar stealth gameplay from Far Cry, but it got tiring and repetitive quick. It has the same bandit camps, cave hideouts, animal hot spots, and pilfering opportunities at every single Witcher 3 style question mark on the map. When the stealth gameplay inevitably fails at times, the combat can be fun, but most of the time it is spent slashing at sponge-like enemies that take 90 hits to neutralize while the animations go swinging in and around the body sometimes missing or hitting mid-air like some bad action movie.

    I will never understand why certain individuals within media companies believe that re-writing history in order to fit in political agendas is okay, and the case here is no different. There are certain races and gender roles within this game that just do no make sense for this era. Nobody cares if people from a wide spectrum of races and backgrounds worked on the game, we just want developers to stay faithful to the historical data and respect the culture without injecting their modern day ideologies into games. I don't believe that it is too much to ask for.

    In case Ubisoft needed an update, gamers don't usually like it when you force ideologies down their throat through their favourite avenue of escapism. Ubisoft obviously did not get the memo, because on top of those issues, they have decided to push micro-transactions in a single player game as "time savers". What this equates to for me is: "We want you to pay to skip content in our game". I did not have to take part in these "time savers" as I am generally a completionist and did enough side activity to maintain my level throughout the campaign. Others were not so fortunate and have been blindsided by this egregious monetization tactic that I will outright condemn every time I see it.

    Also going to just quickly mention how poorly optimized this game is for PC. I use an RTX 2080 Ti to play in 4K resolution, and this game hovers between 50-70 FPS on high with HDR on. If it was 70 consistently I wouldn't complain too much, but no matter how much I tweak the settings, I won't see higher than 90 FPS while my CPU usage sits at 100% with a 9900K. What the hell is going on here Ubi?

    Needless to say, this game has a lot of issues, but it also has a lot of potential to be something great. Ubisoft needs to stop trying to release these games every year, and start listening to their loyal fanbase who can provide the franchise's historical context better than I can. I will be taking a look at Valhalla, which incidentally, took more than a year to produce, just to see if the series has anything to offer going forward.

Even with legendary items, you don't deal that much damage and you have to grind for best builds, which you won't get early on and in mid game, so low dmg output is still problem for most of the game and you have to find many tablets scattered across whole map, which is basically running simulator and grind for resources...

    Something else that i dont like at all is seeing cities so close together, its a huge world but to me it feels like there is too much in it and therefore everything feels really close.

The formla has changed from earlier games, now revolving around activated abilities rather than the classic counter attack focused gameplay. Ancient Greece setting is jaw dropping. I loved it.

    Ancient Greece setting is jaw dropping. I loved it. Nuff said.
    The fashion. Probably better than any other game so far in my personal opinion, yo can mix and match different pieces of ancient armor, robes and clothing. My personal favorite is a sculpted bronze breastplate with white assassin's hood, ancient greek chic for the win.

    What I didn't like:
    The liberal use of fantastical elements. This is no longer a sci fi ancient aliens story, this is pure fantasy, that ALSO has sci fi ancient aliens, alongside pegasi, minotaurs and other fantastic monsters. I'm not a huge fan.
    The story. It seems we've lost track of what the story of the series was originally about. But dfortuantely the overwhelming majority of the story takes place in ancient times in this sequel, with only a small amount of the present being involved, so this is mitigated somewhat.
    AND... the grind. Oh yes, this is by far the worst part of the game. Between every story mission yo will have to kill roughly 7 spartan general, 14 athenian liuetenants, 32 spartan soldiers, 126 athenian archers, 427 spartan triremes, 9,276 athenien biremes and about 47,326 mercenaries. The grins in this game is unreal, and due to the way level scaling works can't really be avoided, as enemies only a few levels above you are near impossible to kill. It's obvios why the grind was included, as there is an XP boost for sale in the store. That is LOW and the publishers should be ashamed of themselves. Completey inexcusable and if yo don't buy into their little scam then it completely ruins the experience of the game. For me, the grind was honestly enough to drop the game halfway through.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game has pretty solid graphics, decent parkour, and at times good boss fights. You can see a lot of initial concepts here that might be solid if they were handled better. However Ubisoft fails to learn from it's RPG inspiration like the Witcher 3, and creates a confusing web of side quests, grinding, and empty boring characters. As per usual in Ubisoft's recent games, shock value takes priority over character development, with characters being killed off seemingly just to anger you, or to make you feel like theres some bigger picture, when in truth the vast majority of what you doesn't matter whatsoever.
    This game is no longer assassin's creed (which is disappointing but no a deal breaker), until you realize you won't be having a hidden blade unless you buy DLC. Oh and the illusion of choosing your own relationships? Yeah that goes out the window too, because you're going to have to have a kid despite Layla not needing ancestors dna to make her animus work, JUST SO THEY CAN MAKE KASSANDRA THE ANCESTOR OF AYA.
    That's another thing, instead of leaving it as "well the history isn't clear and their DNA is similar so either one of them could've been the eagle bearer", they tell anyone who choose Alexios you're character isn't Canon.
    On top of all that you can't turn level scaling off so even enemies like bears will be on tier to stomp your butt into the floor despite any mythical gear you may have or divine power within you.
    The final nail in the coffin is the twist that the Eagle bearer is alive the whole time and gives Layla the staff of Hermes. So not only are we going to have to deal with a crappy character, we could've had a much more interesting story playing as Alexios/Kassandra in modern day instead of being stuck in the one note character that is Layla.
    If Valhalla doesn't drastically improve on all elements of its story, RPG mechanics, gameplay depth and variety, cutting down on the grindy gameplay, and enhancing the sense of effecting the world and characters around you, then avoid this series for the foreseeable future.    … Expand

The level system serves as a series of poorly made gates to keep you from progressing through the map too early. Later, the poor level scaling somewhat brakes the game in that it completely neuters the assassin build. There's zero scaling in AI (once you learn to play the game in the first three to five hours, there's no new or novel strategies you'll have to learn or apply). Instead their idea of level scaling is to slowly neuter the assassin's build, completely breaking it around the mid 40's. Enemies you should be able to one shot, them being equal or of a lesser level, now will become unbeatable even with the guaranteed critical ability the game provides you with. Also, the entire map scales to your level, so when you reach level 50, so does everything else on the map. I'm finding the assassin's build at this point is almost completely worthless. Instead of being an overpowered god of death endgame, I find my character has been turned into a eunuch. After each failed assassination attempt, I'm now being forced to play the new, under baked combat system that I absolutely loath. Where the old Assassin's Creed combat system was centered around parry-then-kill, the new design is to have you occasionally dodge or parry, then to have you mash light or heavy attack for what feels like a hundred times before an enemy falls. Not only are the kills unfulfilling, but their tedious and stressful to get. Where Prince of Persia had a unique and fun combo system, this combat system is the exact opposite: un-creative, tedious, and timing agnostic. It's mash to win. Late game, dodging and parrying becomes optional since you can run around the map until your heal ability is back up.

    The story was compelling at first, but it became lost under a deluge of unmemorable side quests. After about 20 hours, I lost all interest in what any of the NPC's were saying and my impatience spilled over into the main story line. I've just made it out of Sparta with a very important character in tow, who was under threat, and I don't really know what's going on anymore. I got so sick of the meaningless dialog, I ended up skipping critical parts of the story, and now I'm just aimlessly wandering around clearing encampments. My interest to complete this title is quickly drying up as I don't see my play style being rewarded (in fact the opposite is happening) the novelty of the gameplay is wearing off, and I've completely lost the thread of the plot. The "one open world, one grand arching plot" was kind of a mistake. The Persian side-quest story line was perfect. It was self-contained, it was the right length, and it was compelling. I would've preferred 3-5 sequential or self-contained "main" quest lines in that style, than one that dragged on for too long and then fizzled.    … Expand

    Yes, the world is large, empty but so large, wahou, what a lot of fun and emotions here…

    Who wrote that story ? Did somebody actually get paid to write that story ? Is this a joke ? There are more plot holes in the main story than I ever saw in my life.

    I played Kassandra and if I remember correctly, there are at least 3 times where her brother should have just die but did not for whatever deus ex machina reason, what is this ?

    I had the happy ending, sorry, the cliché “we-are-a-united-and-happy-familly-now”

    That’s not too bad actually, if only there weren’t all these plot holes………..

    But the Cult storyline…, is this a joke ?

    When you finally discover the identity of the leader and you go to defeat it, the combat last like 2 seconds, I don”t remember exactly how many guards there were but it was so quick, I spent way more time fighting against the second hands than the actual leader, there was nothing e-p-i-c to it….Is it too much to ask to have an EPIC fight against the leader of the Cult, which is supposed to be the ultimate ennemy in your game ?????????

    The other storyline with the real father is unaceptable because in order to get the final word of that story, you need to buy the DLC, Ohhh Ubisooffttt

    In terms of gameplay, the combat is really bad, it feels like an 90’s arcade game or something.

    It also seems that the character does not take damages on its mesh but rather on its capsule collider because you can defintly see in some fights (against spares or boars for instance) that you are not touched but for some reasons you are actually damaged, so you need to take into account the obvious capsule collider around you, which I did not since……at least way before Tomb Raider 1…..1996 ?

    The naval combat are good but less interesting than Black Flag (yes, they did not had cannons at that time, yes, I know, thank you Einstein)

    The mercenary mechanic is one the worst idea ever. :

    After the first mission that you do for the guy that is revealed as a Cult Member, (the guy that sends you to kill your father), when that guy tells you that he wants you to kill your mother, there’s a fight.

    Well, I don’t know what happened but I ended up fighting against the guy’s guards but also some civilians of the town and 5 mercenaries that came to kill me because multiple bounties came on my head as the fight was going. I won, but my god, what a mess !

    it was a complete non sense, just insane. I’m pretty sure that things should not have gone that far but the simple fact that they have is enought to show that Ubisoft are just bad at making video games.

    The present part was less present (lol) and that’s fine because they obviously want to ditch it but they can’t and they know it, but, as always, the transition between the animus part and the present came at the wrong moment (incredible) and the gameplay in these present parts is …….let’s say non-existent.

    Let’s not forget some side boss fights that could have been great and that went …….well….

    The Minotaur for instance, that was something I first liked.

    You enter in the maze, you have this creepy mood, I was like “Finally !!!! Finally something that will wake me up here and give me some sensations”, you had fog in the maze, you could hear the screams of the beast, it was terrifying, I was expecting the minotaur to appear at any moment at the end of a corridor with its two red eyes, charging me by surprise and…..and…..and……Ohhhhhhhhh Ubisooooooffffffttttttttttttttttttttttttt …….

    And nothing !! You find the exit of the maze, you enter a room, there’s a cutscene, the minotaur is there, in a large room, you fight, you win, you go back, wonderful.

    Oh my god, why ? Why are Ubisoft unable to even succeed at a simple encounter like this one ? Is there no one there to knock things off and bring some ambition to their games ?

    Yes the world’s huge but it’s lifeless, it’s empty, it’s boring, it’s cliché, it’s not epic, there are no emotions, it’s flat, we don’t care about anything, not about the characters, not about the stories, we care about nothing.

    I’m sure there are some details I forgot, yes the battlegrounds……Yes..Well I said earlier that the combat was bad so….

    I mean, some people said that the combat style of the Witcher 3 was bad and that they prefer this one, but are these people insane ? In the Witcher 3 you could dance with your sword, you have so many differents ways to evade an attack, when you had mastered the combat style, you could feel like a dancer. Here I felt like a giant elephant with a sword, fighting some other elephants. Wonderful. Do we have to talk about the romances ? No we don’t.    … Expand

    Visuals... are pretty neat. Visuals _are_ what's selling this game. As cool as it could be. Thanks Ubisoft, I guess.

    Sound... Game's version for my language cheered me up with mistranslated expressions, Greek words sticked into speech just for some fleur, lack of emotional expression and absolutely inappropriate actor vs character choices.

    Overall, not if I would regret making this purchase (10$ for Ultimate edition? Passable!) but I expected to get complete game.
    Ubisoft still sells unfinished games, what a shame...    … Expand

    ACO has it all. great story, great gameplay, great characters and good dialogs, dammit if UBI just focused more on quest variety (typically you have to go to a marker, kill the target then get reward) and a tad more character this would have been a Witcher 3 and Skyrim contender. Still a great game and the best AC game to date for me. Now i will wait for an AC in the Roman Empire.

    Odyssey barely even qualifies as an Assassin's Creed game. Were it not for the occasional musical cue reminding you of what you're playing, this would hardly qualify as part of the franchise, with how far and aggressive of a divorce it is from essentially everything that's gotten the series known and liked up until this point.

Were it not for the occasional musical cue reminding you of what you're playing, this would hardly qualify as part of the franchise, with how far and aggressive of a divorce it is from essentially everything that's gotten the series known and liked up until this point.

    I've tried finishing this game twice with a couple of years in between attempts, with an odd 90 hours total sunk into it. I barely even managed to see the entire main plot through and could hardly begin to scratch the surface of the content: there's a lot of it, but it is all so boring, lazy and uninspired. True definition of wide as an ocean, shallow as a pond.

    The level gating and XP progression only serve to give the game a vague illusion of adventure, when in reality it's doing little more than pulling you by the nose, promising an eventual power spike that never comes. You're weak, you stay weak, and enemies will never, ever take enough damage for combat to feel even remotely enjoyable. You start the game beating up damage sponges and you end the game beating up damage sponges who occasionally glow and throw fire spears at you.

    All in all, Odyssey is simultaneously an enraging and extremely forgettable experience, from its viciously uninteresting plot to its desert-dry characters through to its repetitive world which lacks any of the careful detail and care that should have gone into it. Turns out, making your world this pointlessly large just means you will have no room for actual development, and all assets will be stretched thin, reused to death with all bits of flavor taken out of them through rampant repetition.

    Give this game a hard pass. It's not worth the money, and it's especially not worth the time it wants to take out of you. An exercise in frustration at best and a genuine, complete and utter waste of time at worst. Origins knew when to stop and where to limit its content so as to not be overbearingly massive, but Odyssey shows no such restraint. This is, far as I'm concerned, one of the worst entries in a franchise already mired in bad decisions and average games.    … Expand

    Graphics:

    But the lip sync in Dialogs was offputting for me most of the time.

    Very similar to AC Origins, with the setting moved to Ancient Greece. The scenery is more lush, you have naval battles, big battles between Athens and Sparta, mercenaries, but despite all these additions the game feels lesser. Maybe because grind feels like it increased. And level gating is still there
    However the inclusion of the Discovery Mode propels this game into good game territory.    Very similar to AC Origins, with the setting moved to Ancient Greece.

    Ассассины умерли. Начиная с Origin это уже не игра про Ассассинов, а просто демонстрация графона, дальности прорисовки и все. Из Научной Фантастике в стиле Stealth-Action они сделали просто красивую Фентези Игру. Насмотрелись на Wither 3 и Skyrim, захотели сделать аналогичную игру. Ну назвали бы ее как-то иначе да и все.

    Through the years the AC series had multiple iterations and various changes. It's one of gaming's most long lived series and that most definitely will alter the original versions with the passing of time.

    It's not good, but it is not bad. Progresion system is really grind-based. Boss is 1 level higher then you? You will have to either grind for another 10 hrs or fight him for 30 min. Story is great but the main quest ( spoiler!!!! ) about hunting down cult members is there just to make sure that you will spend at leat 100 hrs finding and fighting them.

    Пожалуй лучшая игра серии. Низкий уровень оценки игры обусловлен недалекими игроками, которые зациклились на "лоре" 1-3 части. Хотя по сути в каждой серии игры свой лор. И каждая часть игры рассказывает историю своего времени, которое в итоге складывается в одно целое. Отличная работа от Юбисофт.Пожалуй лучшая игра серии.

    My first AC game and I was expecting a cheap W3 knock-off but was pleasantly surprised. Huge detailed ancient Greek world, great attention to history, about 50-100 hours of gameplay. Fun game without a few highly memorable scenes.

    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.
