    Mejora a origins en todo. Y el mapa a pesar de ser más grande, en ningún momento se hace tedioso.

    70 hours into the game and I've got to say AC Odyssey surprised me positively! As an action-rpg game it does many things perfectly. Even though it takes a bit of grinding at some points and things could sort of get repetitive, I find myself enjoying all aspects of the game. The map is huge, so I suggest you move immediately if a certain place seems to bore you, you can always come back easily.

    A much better game than Origins in every respect. While I found Origins boring and tedious, Odyssey has me hooked.

    The game world is huge and there is tons to do. The main quest is engaging, as are many of the side quests. The historic setting is interesting as well.

    I really enjoyed this game and it's hard to see how Ubisoft could have done anything better.

    One of the best Assassin's Creed games, 10x better than Valhalla; the graphics were great, the gameplay was awesome, and it's perhaps the only game ever to showcase Ancient Greece realistically in all of its ancient glory. Highly recommend this one; the only reason it doesn't have a 10 is because the story overall was decent but didn't push the bar.

    One of the best Assassin's Creed games, even if you are a fan of the old ones there is ton of fun to have here, but what Ubisoft force you behind micro transactions is a down side.

    This is a fantastic game that really brought me on board with what the franchise has been doing throughout its approximately ten years prior to the release of Odyssey. Before this entry in the franchise, I had only played Assassin's Creed II, and found myself sadly bored, wondering why I didn't click with a game that had received so much praise from others who had played the game. ButThis is a fantastic game that really brought me on board with what the franchise has been doing throughout its approximately ten years prior to the release of Odyssey. Before this entry in the franchise, I had only played Assassin's Creed II, and found myself sadly bored, wondering why I didn't click with a game that had received so much praise from others who had played the game. But Odyssey, with its massive open world, was what I personally wanted from an Assassin's Creed game.

    Odyssey is not necessarily perfect, and to some extent, I tend to agree with much of the criticisms levelled at the game. Its open world feels a bit bloated at times, and its combat is good, though not necessarily excellent. However, I felt that while these things did drag down the overall experience significantly, the game still shone in many areas. It has a solid story, and the gear system is fairly good as well. What elevates all these average aspects is the sheer volume of content available to players. And while individual players' mileage may vary, I truly did enjoy my time with the game.

    Odyssey might alienate former fans of the franchise, but I personally found myself greatly enjoying the formula that was first introduced in Origins and refined here. I would recommend the game to any fan of open-world action RPGs, with the caveat that it may not reach the highs of other games within the genre.    … Expand

    I played it right after AC: Origins but the gameplay is still ok, sometimes repetitive but you can't stop playing. I think that is one of the most important game characteristics.

    Gameplay, graphics, and other aspects are almost the same as in Origins.

    Yes, the Odyssey hasn't a lot of changes but it's a big, very big game. Many resources have been invested to create that game and it's not ok to blame the game because it's big and took plenty of resources.

    It's a good single-player game you could spend more than 100 hours on it. I've beat the main story in about 40 hours but am still playing it because of DLC and some side quests – I want to know who is the main cultist.

    So kindly recommend to all who likes single player 3rd person action/adventure games.

    UPDATE: I spend almost 100h for main story + 2 DLC + platinum trophy.    … Expand

    Amazing game all around! After 320 hours, got Platinum Trophy and finished all the DLCs, I can safely say that Odyssey was the most enjoyable game that I've played in the last 5 years.

    Fun and varied gameplay, the abilities really come into play and they are fun to use, I always recommend switching between them and not using just the best/meta ones.

    Combat may feel floaty at first, but it's because of the weapons used. I also used swords and spears, until I realized they have to feel light. When switching to heavier weapons, it became more satisfying.

    Naval battles are super fun, yet lack realism.

    For people complaining about the lack of guaranteed assassination, there's a skill which you unlock later and which gives you direct asssassination for 90% of the enemies.

    I have never been underleveled. If you explore the beautiful world and do all the side quests (I mean narrative ones, not the radiant ones) you won't have any problems.

    The world is absolutely gorgeous. My only complaint is that, while it feels alive, you can't interact much with it. Social stealth, interactive objects, animals petting, a mini-game etc. would've been amazing.

    I loved Kassandra as a protagonist. She's great IMO, top4 AC protagonists, and since you get to make the decisions, it adds more depth. Also, I'll get this straight: her design is great, she's beautiful (and I think we should appreciate this since attractive females are becoming more and more rare in tripleA western RPGs). Still, there is one problem: the lack of character development, or very few of it.

    Graphics and artstyle, the game does both well.    … Expand

    I definitely recommend playing on normal or easy difficulty since the combat basically means that your enemies have much more hp and deal more dmg. For example if you play on hard and try to fight a mercenary with 2 lvls above you, you have to perma hit him for 15-20 minutes, while you die in 2 hits. That is so bad, because it happens even if you have full legendary items.
    Also to note that you can modify the settings so that your enemies scale with you.
    I also advice you play as Kassandra, she has better voice acting and story makes more sense.

    As other have said, it is a gigantic game and can become repetitive. Upgrading items is costly.
    They managed to make a vibrant Greece and a nice vibe, and the protagonist is awesome. I am at 80 hours and I don't think I will do the DLCs.    … Expand

    Odyssey is my favorite of the recent Assassin's Creed games by far. The setting isn't as good as Origins, but Odyssey's story is much, much better than Origins (and so is the combat) and kept me hooked until the end. Played as Kasandra and loved her family-focused story and even loved Legacy of the First Blade DLC.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Got the game after hearing that people consider it the weakest Assassin Creed game. I originally came into the came with a negative mindset but playing through it, the game became one of the most fun games i’ve played this year. The combat is really fun and the story is decent. I say the story is decent because the ending didn’t feel fulfilling for me. I got the happy/best ending but it didn’t feel like it. I also wish the cult of kosmos members you hunt down played a bigger role and i wish the enemies weren’t so damage spongey. I also expected the main antagonist to play a larger role but they would only show up in cutscenes and we rarely get to see them outside of that.… Expand

It's a beautiful, enormous world they created and with so much detail it's insane. Looking at all the historical places in-game after visiting Greece years ago it's such a cool feeling. I felt like a kid again playing it, excited to see what the next island brings. I love the naval battles. AC IV was my favourite before Odyssey and being able to command a ship once again gives me butterflies. I truly felt a sense of progress while leveling up and focusing on my assassin damage. I struggled a lot on hard difficulty in the begging but later truly felt powerful. This game is blessings for a 30year old me after hard day at work. It relaxes me as much as sailing through the West Indies as captain Kenway. 10/10.… Expand

    I cared more for these characters and the world than I ever did in previous Assassin’s Creed games, and I think that’s part of why this reboot is so successful. Playing Assassin’s Creed Odyssey left me feeling valiant and triumphant as I worked my way up the cultist food chain, and and I was always excited to see what Kassandra was off to discover next.

    If someone had told me couple of years ago that Assassin’s Creed would become a full-fledged action RPG that would not look out of place on a shelf next to The Witcher 3, I would have snickered. But here I am, over 80 hours into Odyssey and still unable to believe that really happened. [12/2018, p.44]

    It also commits a few of the same sins: in particular, the deluge of gar drops feels vaguely insulting, conditioning the player to lust after items exclusive to the in-game store. It's lifted, however, by the relative wit and intelligence of its quest design, and the delicate notes of uncertainty and curiosity introduced by Exploration mode. [Christmas 2018, p.108]
