    Assassin’s Creed Odyssey – Legacy of the First Blade: Bloodline delivers a heartfelt storm of emotional payoff, and a great punctuation mark on the three-part story. Though the gameplay continues the formula laid out in previous episodes, the new combat skill is a fun and useful addition. But the answers Bloodline delivers are a satisfying send off for the many characters introduced, and the Order of the Ancient itself, all while clarifying Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s place in the overall lore more clearly than ever before.

    The final episode of Legacy of the First Blade is a worthy ending to the DLC. It has an exciting, although short, story and interesting dialogues with other characters. The episode also adds a new ability, but doesn't shake up the gameplay in any way.

    Bloodline — the third part of a post-release narrative about love and vengeance, out this week — fails to reignite my passion for the game. If anything, it highlights the reasons for my decreasing desire to play.

It's a solid conclusion theThe third piece of the Legacy of the First Blade DLC is more of what you experienced in the first previous parts. It's a solid conclusion the story arc offering a good ending to the story so far and contains some of the better equipment out of all the DLC and one of the more useful skills. Unfortunately due to choices that were forced upon me in the previous DLC, my ending didn't feel like my own and I had no emotional attachment or care to the ending or how it played out. In terms of length, it's probably the longest piece of DLC, but still only took me a couple of hours to 100%. Give it a miss if you haven't enjoyed anything so far, but for those who have enjoyed the Legacy of the First Blade, I think you'll enjoy this.… Full Review »

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. Darius becomes an unlikable arse, your unworthy husband/cool wife dies, you go on a revenge journey to get your baby back.
    Why didn't the order kill the tainted baby? Why did you go through all this crap and beat the endboss so he tells you were your baby is hidden?
    Ubi sent you through a weak, badly written and executed story which makes absolutely no sense. Why making a baby when you send it away. Why making a baby when you are hunted by the cult and are on the lookout for your family?

    I was so glad when that unworthy wet blanket of a forced husband died, I didn't care that neema died because i had no real build up and relationship with these persons because all this was cramped into 3 **** executed episodes.

    Ubisoft failed on delivering a cool story about Darius and the hidden blade.
    Instead we got a forced romance and a **** made drama.

    I only played through this DLC to get Darius outfit.    … Full Review »
