It isn't the original series which i was a huge fan of but it does follow the same storyline and does have a relationship to the order and i personally think the rpg elements make it a much deeper more immersive game and I've always been a sucker for the historical ties even if some have been altered a little.

    Congrats, UBI managed to destroy most of the best features of the previous games like AC 3 and AC Unity, which had great animations in combat and great parkour, it was fun and looked natural.

    Now with Origins and Odyssey (which is far worse), you get : - Very badly rendered animations (not enough frames) - Very bad fighting (considering that Ubi owns the "For Honor" franchise) -    Congrats, UBI managed to destroy most of the best features of the previous games like AC 3 and AC Unity, which had great animations in combat and great parkour, it was fun and looked natural.

    - Very badly rendered finishing moves
    Basically you 're going to play with a "cyborg styled character" for dozens of hours, which is unbearable for me, and breaks completely the immersion.

    From a game design point of view, it just appears that UBi don't know exactly what they are doing, and try evidently to mix several features in their games, just to make them look different for the players, because they all look basically the same : FarCry , AC, Ghost Recon, Watchdogs, you name it, it is always the same game with just a diiffernt place, at a different time, but it definitely always play the same boring and repetitive gameplay. Now they try to go the RPG route but even Mass Effect 1 did it better in this department. It's just meh in every aspect.
    + the game seems very badly optimized on consoles for now, it plays in the 20-25 fps range basically.

    Amazing game that takes what we saw in Origins only further. Now a full blown RPG with dialogue options and romance. It might be less assassins focused, but the main story and cultist storyline intertwined with that of family not only makes for a good story with fantastic twists but also gives the player a damn good time.

    Would you prefer something completely new? I’m accustomed to origins playstyle so it is a relief that I’m not forced to learn a new playstyle all over again.
    It was known and reported from the first time that the game would feel and play like origins, it’s on the same engine afterall but trust me it is a far more good-looking game.
    The missions and all side activities are just like you remember from origins which is fine by me because i loved how you had camps, fortresses, treasure hunting etc, we still have a ton of stuff to do in Odyssey.
    I have the impression that the graphics have been slightly downgraded compared to the reveal gameplay, but they are still amazing a pure eye candy and the performance on the PS4 PRO is perfect.
    You do hear the fan from time to time along with noise coming from the ps4 but that’s absolutely normal and understandable for a game of that scale and demanding.
    The game is much harder than origins which is something i already knew but i thought it would probably be an exaggeration but no, the game is harder even on normal and that makes all fights intense, interesting and demanding believe me you will feel like a true spartan hero.
    The problems are minor and not worth reporting i am sure all of them will be addressed shortly in future updates.

    The game is outstanding, grab your helmets and embark on your own odysseys.    … Expand

I have seen better animations from PS2 games this is ridiculous, it just feels like nothing in this game is real nothing has any weight to it, the assassination animations are the worst because every time you assassinate someone you stop for like a quarter of a second in the air which ruins the entire flow of the animation.

    Combat is also absolute garbage since they just gave up entirely on making a fun, engaging and realistic combat system instead opting for number combat, enemies are not acting realistically at all and weapons are all the same.

    Everything in this game is outclassed by much older games even by some of the earlier franchise entries like AC:II, and no spoilers for the story but if you want to sleep easy just start playing that generic garbage and you will put yourself to sleep in no time at all.

    Whoever has given a negative review has not played a single hour from this excellent game. The ancient Greek open world is vibrant and majestic. The story is engaging and there is plenty of non boring side questing to do.
    If you're male take my advice and play Kassandra. Thank me later!

    It's an OK game but it doesn't really feel like assassin's creed. I mean yes Origin's mechanics are still there but i just can't feel like i'm playing a game from the serie that i've been playing for years. It's more like a spin off game. It's definitely not bad but not really assassin's creed either.

    I've played up to level 3. It's almost exactly like Origins so far. Same houses, landscapes. Same type of missions. Same fighting style. Same leveling system. Haven't gotten to ships yet- hoping that's something different. So far, not impressed. Will update as I get further into the game. Not really an RPG.

Separately I want to note the combat system, which has become, in my opinion, more complex and interesting. Now every fight makes you think and calculate in advance their actions, and any mistake can cost a real mercenary life. It became more interesting to perform additional tasks, to explore this ancient world. Ubisoft, thank you!… 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]
