    Stupid people shouldn't be allowed to rate anything except from the dinner they had last night. Hating on a game you OBVIOUSLY haven't played...? Get a life and get off your momma's basement.

Kassandra is extremely likable, the quests are engaging, and the atmosphere, my GOD the atmosphere! It's just so beautiful! Every time i climb a mountain and see some grand city in the distance, i am just blown away. Also to those saying the isn't "Assassin's Creed" because there aren't assassins, maybe you should play a bit longer... they may not be calling themselves "Assassins", but the bloodline is there. Don't listen to these people that can't see past microtransactions and actually PLAY the GAME. It's wonderful. 15/10.… Expand

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a solid 8 however other Assassin's Creed fans are stuck in the past and are deliberately under rating Odyssey because they are butt hurt it is not a carbon copy of the older Assassin's Creed games.

Odyssey is a well made game..yes it is open world and yes it has strong RPG elements. Yes it borrows from the Witcher 3 and Shadow of Mordor/War however it stands on its own as a very good game that is fun to play. I have now played Odyssey for more than 57 hours on Nightmare thus far, and I am still enjoying myself very much. Odyssey takes place in the Assassin's Creed universe but prior to the formation of the Assassin Order. Change is not always good but neither is change always bad. Having said that, Odyssey is not a bad game nor is it a great game however it is a very good game. If you don't like open world or you don't like RPG games and/or you want a carbon copy of the earlier Assassin's Creed games then Odyssey will most likely not be for you, but don't be childish and deliberately under rate it because it is not the "Assassin's Creed" game you wanted. There will be a lot of people who liked the earlier Assassin's Creed games, such as myself, who will also like Odyssey just as a lot of people who didn't like the earlier Assassin's Creed games may like Odyssey because of the changes. I could understand a 5 or 6 rating from the Assassin's Creed fans who wanted a carbon copy (even though I don't agree with such a low rating) however anything less than 5 is just asinine. What I am is saying is I understand Odyssey will not be for everyone. The same can be said for pretty much every game. Even my beloved The Last of Us is not going to affect every gamer the way it did me and many other gamers too!!! Just be fair in your ratings people...otherwise you make the gaming community look pathetic. This last comment is also directed at Fan boys who deliberately under rate exclusives from systems they don't own. BTW I also hate micro transactions and have never purchased them...but unlike what some people claim, it is not necessary to purchase them to enjoy Odyssey. Odyssey is not as "grindy" as some people claim but it is a RPG so if you don't like RPGs then you probably won't like Odyssey. Don't whine about it...just play a different game that is more like what you want and like. We all knew (or ought to have known) via the internet what type of game Odyssey was going to be...you could have cancelled your pre-order, so stop being butt hurt. This is my opinion and if I hurt the feelings of any of you who deliberately under rated Odyssey than you prove my point that you are immature and childish. You are entitled to your opinions about Odyssey too however if you are honest with yourselves you would admit Odyssey doesn't deserve a rating less than 5. I love gaming and I love the vast variety of games being created for our enjoyment. Happy gaming everybody and I hope you realize we are in a golden age of gaming.… Expand

If I could compare this to something it would be Fallout New Vegas, whereby the game was an improved, but a brand new, impressively beautiful game based on mechanics from Fallout 3. Give it a try, play it for a bit, ignore the microtransations and you'll have a blast. It seems that people on here are also struggling to accept this franchise is evolving, and if you began to play this game expecting the classic, traditional AC game we've been getting since 2007 (in spite of it being advertised as a full blown RPG and clear diversion from the predecessors) you're a fool.… Expand

    The Micro-transaction in this game are purely cosmetic or for those of you that want to save time. The dumbness off the people I see saying the game forces them on you and is overly grindy is astonishing to me. These are the same people who have no issue buying paid DLC or extra money for a collectors edition, both of which put content behind a paywall that you have to pay more money for. But they put an additional costume for sale in the game that you can CHOOSE not to buy and does not affect the gameplay at all and the pitchforks come out.    … Expand

They don't force them down your throat, and you don't have to purchase these extra items. The game is 100% enjoyable and can be completed without any boosts. The game gives you tons of rewards for defeating mercenaries, cultists, as well as the tons of exploration options. I'm sitting with 7 or 8 pieces of legendary gear in my inventory - and the game allows you to upgrade those good items so you can keep the gear you like the look of, you definitely don't need to put in your credit card to enjoy this game. That is a very over dramatic statement and people are over reacting. I feel like the people who are complaining about the game "shoving micro transactions in your face" are just not the sharpest tools in the shed and keep hitting the store button.

    I'm playing the game on a 4k UHD TV/PS4 Pro and the game is absolutely stunning. There are a few wonky moments but when compared to a game like Fallout 4, the graphics have made leaps and bounds in just three years. The naval combat is fun as well. I'm about 20 hours in and not very far in the story because the game is so rich in exploration and side missions that are interesting. There is a lot to do in this game.    … 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.

    I enjoyed the combat and wide variety of weapons and armor. The graphics are fantastic with one of the longest draw distances I've seen. The missions were fairly varied and some had short, interesting side story arcs. Though nothing ground-break, the story was interesting enough to make me pause whatever TV show I had going in the background at the time, which isn't bad. The game is well-made and polished; I found very few problems or glitches, even when I had gotten myself into a crazy situation that I would expect and accept a freeze or something.

    Reading the negative comments, I find most of them are displeased about two primary areas: microtransactions and the gameplay style. There are microtransactions in the game, which I don't love, but these are in no way necessary. I never felt like leveling was too slow or that I needed to purchase anything to advance the game. There are scores of weapons and armor already available.
    If one just doesn't like the fact that microtransactions exist, then they might be unhappy. Personally, I didn't even notice them since I never opened the store menu in the game.

    Perhaps the title should be "Assassin's Creed Presents" because there isn't actually much traditional assassination, but the gameplay and graphics are clearly assassins creed, and it does link in with the whole 'exploring the past through genetic memory' thing. Instead, this is a huge, open-world RPG.    … Expand

    A somewhat improvement over Origins. This game is very addicting and feels more fun than origins since you get to make your own decisions. The setting is also a lot better and armour in this game is really cool. Only issues I have is the running animations for Alexios look pretty weird and the game can get pretty grindy when trying to reach level 50.

    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]
