    HEY THATS PRETTY GOOD. story is very good though slow and you can choose to follow it or remain on the side quests. The side missions are amasing too. Combat is abit weird at first but i say it is very very difficult and playing on normal felt like expert esspecially when 10 people are around.

    Переработали боевку, теперь она не такая заскриптованная и прям таки чувствуется персонаж. Завезли РПГ составляющую, сюжет знатно заинтриговали, смена дня и ночи.

    Игра, по сути, несколько повторяет небезызвестный The Witcher 3, который мне ну очень понравился.

Without a doubt, the world is the most technically and graphically advanced of any open world game ever and that says a lot with Horizon Zero Dawn at one point having that title. Combat and skills work intuitively to carve a unique experience and leaves the choice with the player whether they want to be a jack of all trades or a stealthy assassin.

    The story is incredible but has its fair share of flaws that I think could have made it even better but this series is definitely heading in the right direction. In terms of level design, it is no doubt that Ubisoft are masters of that aspect with what is a experience that mixes and matches that best elements of past franchises e.g. tree climbing, underwater exploration and even naval combat.

    Ultimately this game is a standout in the series and definitely one of the best games of the last couple of years building on what was the previous two iterations of the series which were wholly disappointing. Nevertheless I think there is a room to improve in terms of the combat and skill tree which can be taken refined in the next instalment as well as developing on this new AC formula.    … Expand

Графика в игре шикарна, конечно, в пустыне может какой-либо камушек будет замылен, но текстуры в городах и прорисовка персонажей шикарна. Было изменено управление и это гораздо удобнее, чем в предыдущих частях, наконец-то можно регулировать скорость бега и ходьбы стиком, не нажимая на RT для бега. Сюжет 10/10. Все как и первом ассасине, у вас есть несколько целей, которые вы должны будете устранить, каждую цель вы убиваете по разному и это не надоедает. Порадовала кастомизация персонажа. Конечно нельзя изменять вид отдельных элементов одежды, но у каждого торговца костюмы резко отличаются друг от друга, из-за чего персонажа можно одеть как ты хочешь. Враги уже не дауничи и не нападают по одному, а как шакалы толпой лезут.

    Nothing short of Awesome. Visuals are great. Combat is the strongest aspect in my opinion. I have played many assassins creed games and after syndicate, i felt that assassins creed felt too familiar and kinda boring. This game reinvents much in a way that keeps the feeling but is new altogether.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра просто шикарна, когда я сажусь играть, я даже отойти поесть не могу, она просто затягивает и ты погружаешься в игровой мир. Так у меня было только с The Witcher 3.
    Не зря Ubi сделали паузу, они реально сделали шикарную игру. Я думал что на старте первую неделю игра будет лагать, вылетать и просто не даст тебе поиграть. Но нет, всё круто оптимизировано. Игровой мир великолепен. Он стал больше. Он стал разнообразнее. Он стал интереснее. Сюжет тоже на высоте, игру проходить интересно. Боёвка стала интереснее, она теперь реально нравится, наконец то меня затягивают и ты не лезешь на толпу врагов ( у меня высокий ур. сложности ). Квесты тоже нравятся, исследовать древний египет очень круто. Система РПГ тоже радует, разнообразные виды оружий со своими бафами позволяют тебе проходить игру так как тебе нравятся, и выбрать любимый стиль. Маленькие минусы:
    - анимации не доработаны, пример: когда у тебя в руки оружие, допустим меч, ты нажимаешь ПКМ и у тебя моментально в руке появляется лук, это плохо. И когда у тебя открыты 2 слота для оружия и ты их переключаешь он появляются и исчезают на персонаже.
    - возможно что то у меня не так, но большая нагрузка на проц, у меня игра на оч. высоких с залоченым фпс на 45, у меня i5 4690 gtx 1060 8gb озу, при игре большая нагрузка на проц. и видюха на 70-90%, надеюсь разрабы патчами это потправят или nvidia дрова выпустит.
    Не знаю, игра очень нравится, вот хочется придраться, вот есть недочёты, но чёрт возьми 10/10.
    P.S игру часто сравнивают с третим ведьмаком, и действительно - игры очень похожи, но в асасине нет той души и атмосферы которая была в ведьмаке, а именно - диалоги и нелинейный сюжет. Ну пропустим нелинейный сюжет, так как если бы его делали выпуск игры затянулся бы, но боже, диалоги такие унылые, я слушаю диалоги только в основных миссиях, и то с трудом, остальные сразу пропускаю.    … Expand

If you're hoping for a complete fresh experience though you might be in for disappointment.

    Assassins Creed Origins doesn't reinvent the wheel but it's a much more refined experience than some of the earlier games with various game mechanics receiving a bit of a tweak more thoughtful use of the open world and simply beautiful visuals. I opted to buy the PC version of the game and am running it at native 4k with the settings pretty much maxed out.

    Aside from a few audio glitches and the odd stutter I haven't suffered any major performance issues. Assassins Creed Origins takes place during Ancient Egypt and the game world has been beautifully crafted to give a genuinely authentic feel. The ambient sounds and the sound track further add to this immersion.

    The story feels a bit slow to get going and with so much o do in the game world it is easy to forget what's going on which in turn has led to me not really connecting with the main character like I would hope. Once you get going though things seem to flow much more freely and becomes easier to follow.

    The games controls feel tight, with combat getting a rework which for the most part works well. The loot system has also recieved attention and feels meanigful and worthy of your time. Theres awide variety of weapons for you to master and if you find something you like you can upgrade them so you can continue to use them on your travels.

    The AI can be challenging when playing on hard mode but I've not found them to be too frustrating. If anything I think they could do with being a bit harder to offer more of a challenge but all in all Ubisoft have done a decent job. There's plenty to do in this open world game and whilst you will find similar tasks repeat where ever you go it's not as bad as it's been in other Ubisoft open world games. Completing the tasks on offer are for the most part fun and rewarding which in turn encourages you to complete other that you come across.

    Assassins Creed Origins comes complete with a photo mode which you'll find yourself using as the game world is Stunning to look At, especially in 4k. What's good is that your pictures can be seen by other players.

    The RPG elements of the game have been implemented thoughtfully and give a nice feel of progression as you make your way through the game. Theres a lot of upgrading to be done and various routes you can take with each having their own unique feel. Theres a nice sense of variety in how you can approach various tasks and the thoughtfulness put into the games design is easy to pick up on.

    Assassins Creed is a series that desperately needed some attention and it's paid off with Origins. The game feels fresh, plays great, looks and sounds awesome and is a he'll of a lot of fun to play. It's great to see the series return to form.    … Expand

It's also worth noting that this game obviously tried to emulate TW3 in basically every way possible - the "witcher senses," the horse, the huge open world, citizens calling upon you to dispose of a nuisance for a nominal fee, etc. Apart from that, it's your basic Assassin's Creed game - you jump around from roof-to-roof towards various icons on the map. The graphics are incredible, but I did have to upgrade my computer quite a bit to run the game. I started with an i7-8700K and a GTX 970, and that didn't even come close to cutting it - the in-game performance rating was "not stable," at best, and that was with medium settings. I bought a 1080 ti, and the game runs flawlessly - this obviously came at substantial expense. I'm not blown away with the story, thus far. It's not bad, by any stretch, but TW3...The combat mechanics are very, very good - this game beats TW3 in that department. Also, the graphics are slightly better TW3's.… Expand

    I would've scored a bit lower but the game needs to have votes to counter the false negatives.

    This is the best AC since Black Flag/AC II, the year off from making a game really paid off. It's visually amazing, combat is solid, story is well written.

    I have to also commend the side quests, they actually have some meat to them and not feel like a "let's get this done asap to get back on the main story", and with the outfits completely cosmetic, you don't have to wear something just because it's better than the outfit that looks better.

    Yes there are bugs that seem to always be in AC games, horse deciding to float or character sticking for a few seconds on the spot, and normally this would result in me knocking a point or two off the review, but the 10 is explained above.

    All in all if you enjoyed Black Flag and AC II this is gonna tick all the right boxes.

    I am playing this on a 7700K/1080/16gb RAM in 4K 60fps with no problems on highest settings, as long as you know your drivers are up to date and you meet the recommended requirements, then you have nothing to fear and plenty to enjoy.    … Expand

    1 - Графика (качество картинки при максимально возможной конфигурации, анимация персонажей) 2 - Геймплей (боевая, ролевая, игровая системы) 3 - Сюжет (глубина, подача, главные и побочные задания) 4 - Качество игры (баги, оптимизация) 5 - ИИ, противники 6 - Реиграбельность 7    Постараюсь оставить максимально объективный отзыв. Вот с чего, по моему мнению, должна строится оценка игре:

    1 - Графика (качество картинки при максимально возможной конфигурации, анимация персонажей)
    2 - Геймплей (боевая, ролевая, игровая системы)
    3 - Сюжет (глубина, подача, главные и побочные задания)
    4 - Качество игры (баги, оптимизация)
    5 - ИИ, противники
    6 - Реиграбельность
    7 - Проработанность мира (история, персонажи)
    8 - Качественные нововведения (будут ли у этой игры заимствовать игровые решения)
    9 - Управление
    10 - Анимация (Персонажи, погодные эффекты)

    Далее по каждому пункту можно выставить балл (0, 0.5 или 1) и просуммировав все получить оценку.
    1 - Графика в игре отличная, очень порадовало сглаживание. Баллов: 1
    2- Геймплей - немного расстроило отсутствие расчлененки из-за чего добивания иногда смотрятся скудновато, но в остальном все нормально. Разнообразие оружия на высшем уровне а что касается боев верхом на лошади - в этой игре, имхо, она лучшая что я где-либо встречал. Баллов: 1
    3 - Сюжет - в целом основной сюжет построен неплохо, но нет ничего что бы заставило сопереживать и запомнилось. Побочные квесты имеют в большинстве своем какую-то историю, но все персонажи очень мимолетны и незапоминающиеся. Баллов: 0.5
    4 - Качество игры - не ощутил проблем, на максимальных настройках получилось играть без проблем. Однако поначалу игры присутствовали очень неприятные баги и зависания в процессе, который чудесным образом исчезли. Баллов: 1
    5 - ИИ - проблем не замечено. Баллов: 1
    6 - Реиграбельность - после одного прохождения желания вернуться увы, нет. Баллов: 0
    7 - Проработанность мира - в игре очень много персонажей, но, к сожалению, разработчикам не удалось качественно передать и открыть игроку их историю и характер. Игровой мир не отличается особенной глубиной подачи. Баллов: 0
    8 - Качественные нововведения - личный орел, отличное сочетание ближнего дальнего оружия. Баллов: 1
    9 - Управление - нареканий нет. Баллов: 1
    10 - Аниманиця - с персонажами все отлично, погодные эффекты тоже радуют. Баллов: 1

    This is basically the Witcher 3 in Egypt
    It largely borrows the pathetic "investigation" mechanic from the Witcher 3 - where you investigate an area, usually a crime scene for clues - but basically execute zero intelligence or problem solving doing it; just going through the motions.
    Cut scenes were patchy - some looked great, but they seemed to get less polished as the game progressed.
    It is a truly massive game - with a large world, and lots to do. However, I would say it is certainly a case of quantity over quality.    … Expand

    Se habla mucho estos días de las cajitas. Si hay un juego en donde son totalmente opcionales es este: en ningún momento he pensado que fuera necesario pese a su presencia en el menú. Va desde conseguir dinero, monturas, trajes... Incluso "Ahorra tiempo" que te da puntos de habilidad etc. Un disparate pero como digo opcionales. Para qué te compras un juego prácticamente offiline? Disfrútalo a tu ritmo.

    Tiene un elemento online que trata de vengar a otro usuario: tienes que buscar a quienes lo han matado.

    Hay misiones y misiones secundarias. Demasiadas quizá y muchas del mismo corte. Pero necesarias para ir subiendo de nivel. No tienes problemas para ir recolectando armas, escudos y demás.

    Early Impression...I absolutely love this game so far lol. It's everything I hoped for while watching videos and doing some research the last couple months. Think they did a great job adding the rpg elements and the new combat system. It's fresh and new yet not so drastic a change that it doesn't feel like Assassin's Creed anymore.

It's everything I hoped for while watching videos and doing some research the last couple months. Think they did a great job adding the rpg elements and the new combat system. It's fresh and new yet not so drastic a change that it doesn't feel like Assassin's Creed anymore.

    Running this on i6700k / gtx1080 / 16gb ram / 1440p monitor and I'm averaging around 60 fps give or take with max settings, for those wondering about performance. Not really great optimization but decent I guess. That being said the game feels very smooth and it looks wonderful. Even if I play on my 4k tv with some tweaking on high-highest and the fps is around 40 fps it feels stable. Can't wait to sink a bunch of hours into this bad boy.

    Update: So I'm about 20 hours into the game I can honestly say this game is amazing. The main story, side quests, and other activities in the game are extremely fun and immersive. The combat too me is very satisfying and rewarding specially when you get use to it. It's exciting. Plain and simple. Whether I'm shooting an arrow through someones head while on horse back, beating their skull in with a warhammer, or just sticking my hidden blade into their jugular I'm thoroughly enjoying myself.

    I know it probably sounds like im just a pure assassins creed fanboy, but im not really...I just like good video games especially rpg's, action games, and stealth. And this game is the perfect blend of all of them. In my opinion it is a masterpiece and a must play. A masterpiece in mechanics and gameplay set a in a world of beauty and intrigue. It doesn't get much better than this.

    The gameplay looks interesting at the beginning, but then you realise there isn't much to do a part from killing a bunch of enemies or look for some items.
    The side quests are more of the above and boring to the point that after 20 hours I started to skip them all.
    The main story is a huge pile of **** garnished with many historic errors and fantasies, all due to the feminist propaganda they forced into the game.

The game was released in 2017 and bring some significant changes to both story and gameplay. For the first time we leave the chronological sequence of AC games and we are instead thrown into the ancient Egypt in times of Julius Caesar and Cleopatra. And when I say thrown into, I mean thrown into. You get no intro, no explanation, no nothing. The beginning of the game can be pretty confusing. But lets take a step back and first focus on the positives of this games. First and foremost: the graphics looks very nice, it is colorful and vibrant. But pretty graphics is just not enough on its own. I am struggling to name any other positive things about this game. Maybe the star puzzles are a pretty good idea. Of course the historical period would be very interesting and a great setting for an RPG game, but it has been mistreated and reshaped in Origins to a point where you get almost no enjoyment out of it. That is about all the good I can say about this game. Now for the bad: First of all, this game is supposed to show the origins of The Creed. I was hoping for something grandiose, something meaningful, something profound. But all I got was very underwhelming. The main protagonist Bayek, who by the way looks exactly like a terrorist, is on a warpath looking to get revenge for the murder of his son, which happens before the game. He try to tell others and himself that what he is doing is righteous and good, but it is very clear that he is blinded by rage and murders thousands just to undo something that cannot be undone. To me that does not sound like something worth founding a brotherhood for. Furthermore his insufferable bisnatch of a wife Aya is bossing him throughout the game and in the end instead of being with Bayek, she just leaves him for no reason whatsoever. Brilliant. All throughout the game, the story is very black and white, very predictable, the quest design is super repetitive and boring. In the last two AC games, the investigations very pretty fun and even challenging, of course that proved to be too much for the AC players and so this time around you just click few places on the ground and all the deductions are done for you. Next thing I got to mention is the accent, all characters speak English with an Egyptian (or whatever) accent, including bad grammar, which I kept noticing throughout the game. The game is also very prudent (for obvious reason), there is no nudity whatsoever, even your marital sex scene. The game takes obvious hints from the Witcher 3 in some areas (music, certain gameplay mechanics), but sadly it does not get anywhere near the quality of the W3. Oh and two more historical aspects that I were obviously written with a clear agenda. Julius Caesar himself is portrayed as this pathetic coward, who is ruled by his own subordinates and needs to be reprimanded and educated about the role of women in the world. Then he gets murdered by Aya, who apparently orchestrated the whole thing. Wow. And one other thing: there is literary no mention of slavery or slaves throughout the game, despite the fact that all Egypt, Rome and Greece were civilizations, that could not function without slavery as they were. I guess it must have just slipped the writers mind. Microtransaction are present throughout the game as you would expect. The SJW is present, but somehow it did not feel as ridiculous as in the Syndicate. I played on PC and it took me about 55 hours to finish the whole game without DLCs, I did not have any motivation left to play those.

    I would not say it was an outright bad game. Certainly not my cup of tee, but I thing more appropriate word would be mediocre. A mediocre game for an mediocre audience. Final Verdict: 50 %    … Expand

    Egypt is beautiful place despite the huge desert full of sand and mysteries.
    Still not bad Assassins Creed part. Although not entirely about the assassins in their original presentation from the AC series.
    Reworked combat system after previous AC games with cool animations. Good graphics.
    Average plot about making Hidden Ones (assassins brotherhood).

    The combat in Origins is supremely boring. There is nothing inspired about the writing, characters, combat... OC: Origins is generic action-adventure game #3586.

    Nearly everything that made the AC games exciting and interesting is gone in Origins, and Origins doesn't replace those elements with anything appreciable. Origins is a hollow shell of a game and a betrayal of what the series used to be, and it is a complete waste of an origins story. Enough with these garbage filler games: Origins, Odyssey, and even (though not as bad) Syndicate and Unity. We need Assassin's Creed to come back.

However, they used the same reliefs and fake hieroglyphs in almost every temple and statues. For example sitting pharaoh statues had the same name carved on it. "Men kheper re" and the game says it's Rameses. :) Such flaws got me bored.

    The game most of the time is boring. The cutscenes lacked emotion and felt disconnected. You trigger a cutscene, try to concentrate on what's going and then a loading screen! That's not how you handle the transition between gameplay and cutscenes.

    I tried to like Bayek since he's ethnic Egyptian but unfortunately he didn't left me any impression. Aya was much more interesting, I wish we had played with her only.

    The story and the historical background is really cool tough. The ending was also intense.

    Gameplay was meh... The new fighting mechanics are really cool but lacked diversity and felt repetitive. Skill tree is meaningless because you don't feel Bayek is improving.

    And the murmurs of Egyptian NPC's are silly. Dialogues don't make sense.

    If only the game was much more detailed.. All in all the land of Egypt is amazing to traverse and story is worth seeing.

    However, the combat was actually somewhat more enjoyable, for one reason: There was no skill that let you assassinate out of stealth like odyssey. Once you got that, it was just run around in circles and wait for it to recharge before finishing up whatever boss mob you were dealing with.

    As a fan since the first game, this is not an assassin game. Stealth and planning is foregone for a lite version of your run-of-the-mill third person action RGP battle-mechanics. If I wanted a poor version of The Witcher III or Horizon, I'd play those games instead.

    Instead of assassinations it relies heavily on damage spongy boss battles, which are a chore to grind down. Despite having some of the most shallow mechanics in the genre, it also manages to have some of the clunkiest, least intuitive controls. For example: to change weapons in a fight, you literally have to let go in the movement stick making you an easy target for your enemy.

    The world is beautiful, but lacks interactivity the verticality of older titles afforded it. It's pretty but mostly just backdrop rather than a gameplay element. The game is grindy, forcing you to level up on trash mobs and super bare-bones side quests to meet main quest level requirements. The setting is enjoyable but the characters and story are rather dry and generic.

    I feel the game really is a step back in every respect from the older games, even combat. For me, this kills off the Assassin's Creed franchise. I come to this franchise for variety, not more of the same but worse.

It prevented me from feeling truly involved in the universe, and after 40 hours of dedicated quest-solving (as I usually do), I found myself feeling like I didn't wanna do the side-quests anymore, as they are really all the same and the poor writing and dialogues just fail to compel you to do them. "Go fetch me stuff", "bandits kidnapped my brother", "meet me there and go kill these guys" quests. A tiny handful of them are slightly better and more immersive, but they eventually all lead to killing a bunch of guys.
    Also, I think Ubisoft could use a bit more boldness in their writing. Cliche moral how-you-should-think lessons are everywhere. Men and women are exactly equal in every way, thieves are just nice people who want to feed their families, bad guys are selfish xenophobic and/or mysoginistic to the extreme, nice guys are selfless, love everyone with such deep passion and connection... It gets tiresome. Force-feeding eventually only leads to barfing. Just write a story Ubi, and let us think how we want to think. Just this would make dialogues, story, flavour texts,... much better for many of us.
    I thought its biggest strength lied in its environments. The game is gorgeous, exploration feels nice just because of it. Rather it is the cities or the nature areas, it's very pretty, the sights are top tier.
    Music is great.
    Fights are nice, ask for a bit of learning. Bayek of Siwa, the main character eaten alive and defined by his grief and his desire for vengeance, is charismatic and a good AC character. Although his character is not very "deep", we still feel empathy for him and enjoy playing as him, his voice-actor nailed it too. The stealth/assassin mechanics are still there, still fun, still work just fine.

    Overall, and I'm sorry to probably be the millionth guy to make this comparison, I'm sorry to say that despite its strengths, after a game like The Witcher 3, this game feels rather bland. Don't get me wrong, it's still fun, still nice, still badass, but if you expect an immersive world, story, dialogues, quests, this might just not cut it. AC Origins just got a grip on the bar that The Witcher 3 has set for open-world games, but doesn't set itself at the same level, it just... hangs on it, awkwardly at times.

    But as I said, fun game still, newcomers to the gaming world or young gamers might love it.    … Expand

I've never seen such an "open" open world in a game before. The draw distance is amazing. You can literally climb on top of a hill and see literally everything up to the distant horizons. And it all looks so gorgeous.

    Many times I'd just take a horse and aimlessly wander through the vast empty deserts just to enjoy the eerie serenity and feeling of isolation. And it's amazing how you can just hop on a horse and gallop from one end of the world to the other in one seamless motion, no loading between areas, no mountains popping in view... it's all just there at any time and it makes you really feel the distance between areas.

    As for the story I had no idea what was going on more than half the time. It's like the game assumes you have some previous knowledge of Egyptian history and customs because I was often left very confused as to what was going on and what characters were talking about.

    Fortunately I didn't care about the confusing plot because I was having so much fun with the game anyway. There's just so much to do that after 70 hours I had to force myself to stop playing and move on to different games. It's extremely addicting. Most of the fun is in the incredible details in the enormous world. Like getting lost in the desert and stumbling upon a hidden oasis with mystic powers. Climbing on top of the highest hill on an ominous looking mountain and discovering a long forgotten grave. Chasing after the mysterious illusions that stalk you in the scorching sun. Sliding down from the top of the pyramid and raiding its deepest tombs. Man, this game...

    One thing that really bugged me was the new combat system. It went from cool and satisfying action-filled fights in the previous games to generic dark-souls-like fights where you just dodge like crazy and spam opponents with hits to make numbers fly out of them. Sigh. What's even worse is that the main determinant of each fight is your level. Higher level = you win, lower level = you lose. Who knew an arrow to the head doesn't kill a guard because he's 2 levels above you which makes his head immune to your arrows. Fvck logic. And having to make sure all your weapons are keeping up with your level all the time, calculating damage, looting for hours to afford a slightly better weapon... it was a very tiring grind.

    Secondly, like every AC game the anti-aliasing is horrible. I had to use a combination of anti-aliasing and sharpening effects with Reshade to make it look good.

    Regarding bugs : I have encountered a sound bug only once, and unfortunately, the game crashes at least once per day. Ubisoft stated they are working on a crash fix. Regarding the Denuvo problem that people encounter, I don't know what to say, as for me I don't have issues with it. I hope Ubisoft will find a workaround for you.

    Edit 10th June 2018 :

    So, i completed the main story (DLC are not included), and there are things that could have been better with the storytelling but overall, I'm still satisfied with the game. I just finished "The Hidden Ones", it was nice. I'll update my review once I'm done with "The curse of the Pharaohs"

    Edit November 25th, 2018 :

    Main story and DLC completed this time, and what I want to add is that the ending of the main story feels rushed, that's a shame. The DLC are not necessary if you want to extend the plot, they are strictly optional. I still consider the game a huge success and keep the score at 9/10    … Expand

    I've pretty much missed out on the AC games but this one really caught my eye and I'm glad it did! The game runs great (seriously, all maxed and never under 70fps, usually above 100, 1080gtx w/6700@4.5, 27" gsync 1080p), the environments look stunning, and there are tons of fun things to do and explore. I love historical games, and enjoy open world RPGs a lot as well

    Pros:

    * New climbing / walking animations * Graphics quality is very good / world building of Egypt is excellent also * Glad they maintained the climbing trees animations that started in AC3 * Excellent water rendering * Beautiful under-water landscape - very similar to AC4 which were also excellent * Unique designs of each viewpoint * Boat travel animations * You get XP points    Pros:

    * Excellent water rendering
    * Beautiful under-water landscape - very similar to AC4 which were also excellent
    * Unique designs of each viewpoint
    * Boat travel animations
    * You get XP points for everything you do
    * Ability to toggle Bayek's hood on and off
    * Aya's rendering was very detailed and life-like, (not to mention pretty)
    * Papyrus puzzles were very enjoyable
    * Details of NPC animation activities such as pulling blocks for buildings, etc
    * Horse mechanics allowing a companion on your horse with you
    * Nice work with the lighting / sunsets
    * The sandstorms are well-done, adds immersion
    * For the berzerk sting - I love that they re-used the exact sound from AC2's poison blade (AC2 is still the best in the series)
    * I enjoyed the presence of William Miles in the present day story
    * Enjoyed the story overall - very good ending to the game culminating in the beginning of the Assassin Order and the Assassin's Creed

    Cons:

    * No SLI Support (this alone will always mean I won't buy the game until I can get it for next to nothing)
    * Poor combat system. Significant downgrade from most previous AC games. The new hitbox system is absolutely terrible. I miss the AC3 / 4 / Rogue combat system terribly.
    * Awful performance and it's not because of GPU limitation (I'm running (2) 1080 Ti Cards) - anytime I walk into a city area my CPU & GPU is only being used around 60-70% but there's hitching galore which indicates problems with the game engine / poor optimization of it. (I also suspect the multiple forms of DRM in the game are contributing to this). Ultimately this makes the game feel like I'm playing an alpha build of it...the performance is so terrible inside the cities that you can't even appreciate the effort that went into the detail of the world.
    * Controller UI for tool selection - was much easier in previous games.
    * DRM - Both Denuvo & VMProtect in the game which directly impact performance and do not prevent piracy.
    * Limited kill animations - I really miss the multifinishers / animation system. Not sure why they moved to a hitbox combat system - likely because they were essentially trying to copy Witcher 3 when they made this game instead of attempting to innovate while also adding good ideas from other developers (and let me clue you in here Ubisoft - the combat in Witcher 2 and 3 was the lowpoint of those games - their mature story and worldbuilding / character development were what set them apart.) Going from the enjoyable animation style combat in AC3 / 4 / Rogue and even Syndicate to a hitbox combat system is a significant downgrade. Ubisoft is so afraid to try something new and innovate that it limits them significantly. This is why their games are always going to be a B-TEAM level experience when compared to a developer like CD Projekt Red.
    * Lack of an information database
    * Poor story explanation of your targets & people - they don't really tell you who these people are or what they specifically had to do with the backstory, etc. You don't know who they are in the Egyptian gov't, etc. It's just very lacking in details.
    * Some unnecessary SJW gender-politics in the game - Ubisoft has been getting more into the gender politics BS of late. They have a couple missions where it's made very clear the entire point of the missions is to convince the player that "girls can do everything boys can", lol. There's too much of this crap in movies and games today.
    * Inconstency in the present day story - for example when Bayek sees the information from the ancient mechanisms - he doesn't react. Ezio saw things in AC2 and had a reasonable reaction to it - so that was weird.
    * Poor present-day story
    * I miss the old voice actor for William Miles from AC3 - this new guy has a flat delivery.
    * Fight with Septimius - tough to take seriously having Aya fight a dude who is 3-4x her size and better equipped. This was just more of the SJW / feminist silliness in this game's plot
    * When showing Brutus toward the end of the base game, they should have had him wearing his "Brutus Armor" from AC Brotherhood
    * A LOT of filler-content. Most locations on the map are just filler content - it's pretty, but there's so many locations that have loot / guardposts that you just have to find the treasure and kill some random target for no apparent reason that it becomes tedious, especially since there's no real reason to go in there and kill or rob these people to begin with. Literally this type of content took the game from about a standard 50-hour run to about a 100-hour run which is just artificially making the game longer with tedious side content. I'd prefer solid story / campaign content or side missions that tie in with the main story, etc. instead of collectibles

    new to the creed series, i thought that this was a good game. top marks for environment art, story was good but not great. Voice acting was well done, looking forward to seeing the rest of Egypt after main story finishes

In order to level up you must complete the most boring side quests you ever see in a video game. It's just one npc looking like a statue talks blandly to you. Game forces you to do these because main quests don't give you enough xp in order to do the next one. That's when the game starts to bore you and it becomes a chore after that. Had a potential but wasted it too badly. Don't recommend as an ac fan.    … Expand

    Gameplay is cool, took series in a new direction.
    Side quests are boring and repetitive and there's too much useless content.
    Didn't give the slightest **** about the story.
    Giving it a 4 cause it was playable.

    The resurrection of the seemingly exhausted series was successful. Beautiful and enormous Egypt is complemented by the sympathetic hero Bayek and plenty of modifications to the proven formula. [Issue#280]

    This killer holiday in Egypt is definitely no boring. On the contrary, it is a pleasant excursion to the times, when the sphinx had a nose, and mysterious killers did not call themselves assassins. You cannot find a nicer version of an Ancient Egypt in any other game, and up to it it’s entertaining. A modest family story affects the whole empire at the end, and you will forgive a handful of bugs to its charismatic heroes, as well as the fact, that you have played the same pattern so many times, just in another scenery.

    Ubisoft Montreal managed to make Egypt not only beautiful, but extremely atmospheric. When you’re admiring the city and a mounted patrol rushes past you, you always get that urge to step aside to avoid getting trampled, even though you know you can eviscerate them all in a blink of an eye.
