   really enjoying this game. not like any other which holds your hands. gone are the days of mini maps and way markers you have to go out andreally enjoying this game. not like any other which holds your hands. gone are the days of mini maps and way markers you have to go out and learn the map and upgrade skills to see farther away locations. working your way though countless skill trees makes the game seem large and what a lot of RPGs are missing. (this is not an RPG game) cant wait for more content from the creator. his assassins creed 1,2 and 3 where by far my favorite in the series. glad he left there and started his own thing.… Expand

   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ancestors the humankind odyssey is a game that is truly a diamond in the rough in terms of PS games. It has you playing as a group of apes that eventually evolves to become human. The climbing mechanics are almost spot on, very similar to assassins creed. The survival mechanics are also very well developed, it took me awhile to figure out how to eat a coconut instead of just drinking it. The game is mostly about discovery as it does not tell you exactly how to do most things, some of which you need in order to survive. Once you figure out how its systems work, it is a very rewarding if not tedious game. What the game doesn't tell you is that in order to evolve you must complete evolution objectives(Like kill every predator) that advance years in the game once you pass generations. It does a poor job of telling you what your goal is. But the discovery is totally worth it. As you start to get attached to your apes and really care about their fate. If you are okay with some tedium in your games. Then it is surely worth it if you like games like spore.… Expand

Although getting neurons and unlocking new ones was getting a bit boring to do, and a big issue was a certain camp would crash the game and i had to relocate to move on. in the end i loved the game but see it's faults.… Expand

   Ancestors The Humankind Odyessey
   Not really a game for me
   If you’ve been around long enough you know that assassins creed is my favoriteAncestors The Humankind Odyessey
   Not really a game for me
   If you’ve been around long enough you know that assassins creed is my favorite gaming series of all time, so when I found at the the creator of my favorite series is making a new game, I couldn’t not play it.. so I hopped into ancestors with excitement and intrigue… excited to create a new lineage of primates, go through the struggles, the trials and tribulations of becoming human.. and after about 2 hours of monkeying around, I discovered that this experience just isn’t for me…
   Ancestors The Humankind Odyssey is a survival game where you start as a male, female, or random character thrown into the jungle… and I actually got assassins creed vibes right from the jump.. with that classic bird opening, even as im climbing trees and swinging from vines.. this felt like the true assassins creed origins… but the longer I stayed in this world the more it furtrated me and the more it pushed me away….
   I feel a bit tricked… the game opens with a little cutscene, youre given a mission to hide, and then go find yourself as a member of your little money tribe… I was kind of under the impression that this game was going to deliver a story, but it doesn’t… it goes from you have my attention to I have no idea what im supposed to be doing… and that’s kind of the point.. our ancestors didn’t know what theyre supposed to be doing either… they had to figure everything out.. so you set out to discover, find food, tools, landmarks…deal with predators, and use this gain knowledge to pass it onto a new generation, to evolve and advance your species… this is a game of discovery and survival.. and its this survival part that kills the game for me personally… I am not a survival fan at all… I’m not into dealing with injuries.. especially in a game with fairly clunky feeling mechanics… im not into finding water, finding food.. dealing with poison and cold, and sleep systems… not even a little bit… but even if I were.. these systems make you feel handcuffed… you feel restricted to exploration because your meters ae draining, and if you venture too far you risk hysteria which instantly pulls you back and respawns you.. like a glitch in the animous when you go beyond that blue wall the game doesn’t want you to see yet… which in turn kind of take away the mystery of the game, it takes away the feeling of exploration and just turns it into survival and discovery.. . which again just isn’t my kind of thing…
   if you are into survival type games though, I do feel that ancestors offers a very unique experience.. this isn’t a bad game by any stretch of the imagination… its just one of those kind of games that either its your thing or its not… and if youre not it wont do anything such as having an interesting story to give it a chance to become your thing…
   I give Ancestors The Humankind Odyessey
   a 6/10… Expand

   Buggy, slow even on PRO. Can't believe they take the game in this state. Zero communication from the DEVS
