    This Game is NO Assassin's Creed
    The Story Doesn't Follow Story of the Series
    No Feel Like the Old Ones
    Come Back to the ORIGINS of the Series...

    Pros:
    Beautiful world
    Combat system
    Weapon variety

    Cons:
    Lack of mission variety
    Game becomes repetitive

    This is a longer game with enough content to keep you busy past the main story line and into 100+ hours of gameplay. I have 86 hours played currently.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Assassin's Creed é um das minhas franquias favoritas, depois de ter zerado o magnífico Origins, decidi q iria partir para o Odyssey logo em seguida, entretanto, me decepcionei um pouco e vou dizer o porquê:

    Muitos disseram que o Odyssey estava BEM melhor que o Origins em todos os aspectos, porém, o combate tem novos elementos como o chute espartano por exemplo, mas outros recursos eu achei desnecessários em relação ao Origins, dá pra se acostumar, mas ainda é inferior ao combate de seu antecessor, a otimização é péssima, o Origins que possui o mesmo motor gráfico não tenho esses problemas, já esse, tem quedas constantes de FPS, inúmeros crashs no meio das missões, principalmente na ilha pirata, chega a ser irritante ter que reiniciar o game inúmeras vezes por conta dos bugs que tem nesse jogo, é a famosa pressa da Ubisoft em lançar um AC por ano, o maior exemplo disso, é o seu antecessor, o Origins que foi perfeito do inicio ao fim, o melhor desde o Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, história cativante desde o início que consegue prender o jogador.

    E o pior, não me senti jogando um game da franquia Assassin's Creed, tá mais para uma cópia de The Witcher do que um game dentro da franquia, Origins conseguiu mesclar bem os elementos RPG com a essência de AC, coisa que não senti no Odyssey. E depois o início maçante, finalmente terminei a campanha principal, preciso fazer um levantamento de alguns pontos:

    1. A história em si é boa, principalmente quando você escolhe o o final bom e verdadeiro, mas demora muito para engrenar e empolgar o fã de longa data. Mas o ponto negativo, é que o decorrer de como desenvolve a trama, é muito confuso, pois você pode 'finalizar' o game sem eliminar todos os inimigos do culto, eu acho isso bem ruim.

    2. A DLC do Legado é fantástica, que começa empolgante já no início da trama, foi exatamente isso que faltou para história principal, pois o início é bem maçante.

    3. Os personagens Alexios, Kassandra são bem legais, mas a mãe dos 2 é ainda mais legal e vc fica preocupado a todo momento em mante-la viva, queria uma DLC dela. Mas o desapontamento fica por conta dessa distância que manteve da essência dos assassinos, mesmo sabendo que o início da Ordem foi lá no Egito com Bayek, mas poderiam acrescentar elementos que trouxesse o jogador ainda mais perto da Ordem dos assassinos e da família do Alexios e Kassandra, e são personagens que também merecem uma sequência na Pérsia por exemplo, assim como Bayek e Aya que provavelmente terá uma sequência na Itália tendo Roma como cidade principal. O erro da Ubi, é não dar pelo menos uma sequência para o personagem para criar afinidade com o fã da franquia, assim como foi com Ezio Auditore em sua trilogia.

    Talvez seu grande defeito seja de ser o sucessor de um dos melhores games da franquia que é exatamente o AC Origins, mas também não me senti jogando um Assassin's Creed propriamente dito, meu desapontamento é grande em relação a isso, e para zerar, tirei da mente que era um game da franquia 'AC' e fui embora. A ausência da lâmina oculta é um dos pontos que senti falta que é explicado na DLC do legado, mas mesmo assim, fez falta. Pra quem está entrando na franquia AC agora e é fã de RPG, é um prato cheio, mas pra quem é fã de longa data desde 2008 como eu sou, é decepcionante (alguns da velha guarda gostaram, mas outros também ficaram desapontados), mas dá para se acostumar, se o game tivesse apenas o nome 'Odyssey', com uma pequena organização na trama e desenrolar das missões, sem dúvidas, seria o jogo do ano, mas pelo fato de carregar o nome 'Assassin's Creed', a trama exige o mínimo de essência.

    Procurei fazer uma análise totalmente sincera e sem haterismo para vocês que pretendem comprar o game, doi colocar o selinho de 'não recomendado' de um game de uma das minhas franquias favoritas, o jogo é bom? É! é o Assassin's Creed mais ambicioso? sim! Mas tá longe de ser o melhor pela falta de essência que moldou a franquia, a gameplay é aceitável, mas inferior comparado ao Origins, a movimentação é satisfatória, compare a movimentação do AC Unity de 2014 (considerado o pior da franquia por muitos) com o AC Odyssey de 2018 e você perceberá que até nisso, a qualidade caiu, quem diz que é o melhor da série, não conhece a franquia a fundo, o que inclui os livros que aprofunda ainda mais a história, ou começou a jogar AC ontem.

    É um jogo mediano, a sua otimização é péssima e até jogos mais "bonitos" na questão gráfica, conseguem entregar uma otimização melhor do que este jogo.

    Nota Geral: 5/10

    Amazing open-world RPG game. After Witcher 3, I was looking this kind open-world game. Normally, I do not like AC games, but Odyssey deserve 10 point. Great story, amazing game play, unbelievable atmosphere and very good soundtracks. In addition, the game has too few bug. To sum up, everyone who love open-world game should play this game.

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a great game with a vast and beautiful open world. The game is set in ancient Greece and I think it captures the world of in that time perfectly. The characters are pretty good but the dialogue can be a bit not great at times but I think you can forgive that for all of the other content. Over all I think it's a solid 9 and I really recommend this game.

    The optimization is very bad. This game has very bug. Sometimes open and play after that you don't remember for weeks. The crafting system is not good and sometimes you doing same thing again and again. The scenario is not very good. The choices are not affect too many times. This game has very short play time because after 8-9 hours you will get bored.

    I love this game! Kassandra is a wonderful protagonist and I feel like a 46-year-old child playing this masterpiece. I love the freedom it gives you to do whatever you want, more or less. Combat is awesome fun with all the various builds available... Done fine seem to appreciate the you're nature of the game compared to many older AC games, but I prefer it this way by far. To each his or her own.

    Odyssey is a journey into the world of ancient greece you are a mercenary and you fight for which side pays better in the peloponnesian war but other themes such as family, friendship and secret societies also make an appearance here.

Odyssey is very reliant on light to heavy RPG elements that determine what abilities you can use and what enemies you can fight easily or one's who are unbeatable. The games expertly divides the map though to vary between difficulty so don't worry about it too much. The whole premise of AC Odyssey is to figure out the mystery story wise and from a gameplay wise to get stronger by getting better gear and abilities. It is straightforward and overdone but the games setting looks beautiful and Ubisoft has added other elements to increase replay value of the game from finding out secrets that can in turn be new cosmetics for your ship crew to the naval battles themselves. Odyssey is very similar to Origins in turns of overall design. Expand

    This game is bad. LIke it has some interesting side quests and story at times and combat can be a lot of fun. But theres so much unnecessary stuff. Theres millions of fetch quests just to prolong the game time and by the end of the game I begged the God to make it end finally. Very dissapointed with this.

    First of all, Assasin's creed shouldn't have any continuation after Black flag. I felt that Black Flag was like a last one that actually builds any further story. After Black flag almost none of the further Assasins were changing the game mechanics - all the time the same(small changes), all the time from the start. Moreover the way the story is told in Assasins is a bit clamsy. RepeatableFirst of all, Assasin's creed shouldn't have any continuation after Black flag. I felt that Black Flag was like a last one that actually builds any further story. After Black flag almost none of the further Assasins were changing the game mechanics - all the time the same(small changes), all the time from the start. Moreover the way the story is told in Assasins is a bit clamsy. Repeatable story, stiff dialogs, so I gave up with the series.

    Than I have heared that "latest"(Origins, Odyssey) Assasins have changed the gameplay mechanics, so I decided to give it a try. I haven't finished the game yet, but I made like 25 hours in the Odyssey and I can say some words about it.
    Pros:
    - We have skills both for the close-combat weapons(sword, etc.) and a range weapon(bow).
    - We have a big, beautiful world with islands
    - The world is divided into zones ment for specific lvls
    - We have "ships module" from previous games, adjusted to the timeframe. (bows, instead cannons, etc)
    - We have a visual branch of people to kill, and when you kill them, you get tokens for upgrades, it's a nice mechanics.
    - You don't get desynchronized when you kill NPCs, instead your crime meter rises and you're being hunted while still having a chance to survive(and kill the hunters for rewards).
    - RPG mechanics is a breath of fresh air in this game, you have lvls, upgradeable skills, equipable items
    - The combat is quite good, avoids, blocks.
    - We have army vs army mode, where you can support one of the side and for the win you get items

    Cons:
    - The story - as it is another assisn... I cannot unite with my character, I just don't feel it, the character is not a part of something big and every next assasin game is made for no reason, how many times can we go thorugh the game with the same background? If the game wasn't assasin, this could be all different.
    - The lvl scalling - This part pains me the same as the story one - the world lvl is scaled up to your lvl, the zone you're in cannot be lower than you -4 lvls, so basically all you do in the game, all the upgrades you make, you feel all the time like you don't progress at all, as you deal the same dmg oveer and over, the skills dmg doesn't really change much too.
    - Even though we have ships, it doesn't feel that good like in Black Flag. You just sail to another island, because there is a quest... and I don't feel like fighting other ships, because even when you get resources for upgrades, still there is lvl scalling or stronger enemies and you do the same dmg all over again.
    - Even though we have a big world, the world is empty, I mean it's filled with a lot of boring repeating quests like: go-and-kill, open chest, find a piece of paper, clear a cave, that don't bring anything to the story and the bonuses(exp) you get, etc. is getting "lost" due to lvl scalling.
    - The "synchronizing towers", srsly? again? Just to unlock fast-travel? And a flying eagle effect for 10 seconds?
    - You get slots for skills over time. You get 4 per-weapon in the beginning, than you get more. Some may like it, but I didn't feel good with being limited to 4 skills, when I had bought 12, because in that part of the game, I could spare only 1point per skill.
    - Opening menus animations are annoying for me, even though the UI looks nice and intuitive, they take too long (3secs to open),
    - The map tab and quests tab should be somehow combined together, because switching between it, checking where the quest is, going back is just not handy.
    - "Heart" dialogs, we can have sex, but whatever, when you don't feel the character you play.
    - Items lvls - each item has its lvl, which can be increased to the lvl of your character, no matter what rarity type is the weapon, so if you are stubborn you can loot one piece of crap and upgrade it through the whole game - the dmg doesn't count anyway, due to scalling.
    - Even though the combat system is quite good, the opponents moves are repeatable, the enemies are repeatable, which just don't fit to such big world.

    To summarize, the game is playable. It is even exiting for the first 20 hours, than you get border or repeating things and a lack of progressing. Dear Ubisoft if you read it, please close the series, call your game something else, change the background, maybe at least I won't be so negative about starting another piece of tapeworm and having the stiff story I can't relate to, because I'll have another game in the series with completly different characters. (Unlike AC II) Also please decrease the world size, or at least please fill it with more valuable unqiue content, like quests with unique stories - you can take an example from The Witcher 3.

    It's definitely not Assassin's Creed. Just ubisoft trying to make an RPG (and failed) and using AC franchise to promote it. The game is just a repetition since the beginning.

    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.
