    Sad what's happened to assassin's creed, from best to worst. The new formula ruined what used to be one of the best series ever.

The game repeats itself over and over again unnecessarily, dialogues are too long and not interesting, side stories repeats themselves in a thousand variations. The new formula of AC is just boring, combat system is as old as god of war and is a direct copy and paste of early 2000's combat mechanics. This game has it all to be a huge hit, problem is it has too much and it is to much. The game would've been an easy 6 for me if they had cut out at least 80% of the content which is boring, tiresome, repeating, and just makes you sleepy even if you're not tired. This game Will make you tired and is sometimes like working not playing a game. Played each and every AC games, was a huge fan, but this one is most probably my last. It had enough AC in it for a lifetime, and definitely not in the good sense of it piece of **** really RIP AC please don't come back to life, good riddance and fu, ubisoft is crap never buying any of their games ever again Alexios is a piece of ****… Expand

    Playing DLC I’ve finally can say: This is very huge project. I’ve spend tones of hours and still every time got new content, new armour, new skills... Ubisoft done well with their Witcher like RPG! Bravo!

    P.S.: All the transactions are not necessary! Ive finished main story without any spendings. So then I decided to buy DLCs and some skins, cause game deserves it!

    The quests and narrative are no where near as deep as anything you’d find in the Witcher 3, but aside from that it’s entertained me for a solid 100+ hours. Combat is fun, the world and weapons are great and the cult and mercenary mechanics are fun also - best AC game I’ve played - I prefer this direction which Ubisoft are going in.

    Odyssey latches on to the RPG elements Origins laid down, but takes it to greater heights. From the enriched Greek Isles, to the stories of mythical creatures and gods, Odyssey is much more immersed than its predecessor.

Being female makes a headline in an ever changing landscape    Odyssey latches on to the RPG elements Origins laid down, but takes it to greater heights. From the enriched Greek Isles, to the stories of mythical creatures and gods, Odyssey is much more immersed than its predecessor.

    One of the biggest features was the gender of the Canon Protagonist (As the opposite could also be chosen). Being female makes a headline in an ever changing landscape in games, while this is nothing new for this franchise, it has certainly cemented the modern standards of the genre. Gender besides though Odyssey has lived up to my expectation is many other ways.

    The vast open world and well detailed environments, have shone as its core features. Scaling the rock faces of forested cliff sides or that of the stone embodiment of Poseidon really stuck to the Assassin Creed roots. Though with the options of horseback and ship sailing, traversal felt better to combat yourself, rather than fast travel.

    Odyssey is very much an improvement over Origins, executing more in depth RPG options both in dialogue and actions. Though this was much a positive, to me the RPG influences as of late are creating a different sort of game. I enjoy RPG’s and while this is not native to the genre in terms of a personal custom character, it really carries that pride. However, from the hoarding of gear and levelling mechanics, to RPG branching story arcs, the core of what Assassins Creed was, has worn away.

    In conclusion then, Odyssey excels as a new addition to the franchise. It capitalises on all the things Origins had, and even pushes the boat out further. Though while it excels in what is has achieved, this new form of Assassins Creed will not carry the same effect as I think older instalments once did.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Played around 200 hours, this game is *** awesome !! People complaining about microtransactions saying that they're necessary are just really bad, they are by no mean necessary, I cleared the missions and got the best gear and had to put the game on the highest difficulty for it to be challenging.
    I heard some comments about how it's hard to be stealthy ... are you fu*** kidding me!!? I cleared all forts in the game in stealth, you have to learn the game mechanics and how to approach your stealth game for it to be effective and not having to fight. Maybe because i played almost all AC games before i was really good at it, but what i'm saying is the game offers a perfect approach for stealth style.
    And all the mythic stuff it has the the DLC, it's amazing, fighting the Minotaur was fun, the cyclops, Medusa, all of these were amazing. I don't understand the hate or the low score. THE ONLY thing i can think off is the mythical part of this entry on the franchise, and people only wanted normal AC stuff, and to that i say fu** you, the best part about the game was the historical places it took us to, and this entry did that PERFECTLY. So hats off to Ubisoft, i'll definitely play Valhalla and then go back and play Origins cuz i have not.    … Expand

Assassin's creed Odyssey is one of the most underrated games I know....I mean...Come on...If we are honest with ourselves, we must acknowledge this is a great game who borrowed a lot from The Witcher 3. Assassin's Creed Odyssey performs in a lot of major aspects:
    a) The story is engaging and well presented
    b) The graphics are spectacular (especially the light effects, the sea, etc...)
    c) There is a lot of content and there is important depth in the open world
    d) The naval battles are back (for those who miss Black Flag :))
    e) The gameplay is fun most of the time

    There are some reasons why I think the reviews are around 6,5/10 and from my understanding, I see that a lot of players put 0/10 because of the microtransactions, the leveling system or the fact it doesn't seem as a traditional AC game.

    However, the truth is that the microtransactions are not at all mandatory. We must consider side quests as main quests here...In fact, side quests give us reasons to explore the world, discover new areas, etc...

    In my 86 hours playthrough, I've never been underleveled and I finished the main story at level 49. I plan to continue until level 52 or so (still want to complete a few quests...). Here are a few recommendations to enjoy your playthrough:

    1. You need to explore the world and do side quests.
    2 Don't do the random generated quests on boards or the time limited ones. There are enough quests with the yellow mark to level up appropriately
    3. Play on normal difficulty. I would consider possibly hard for rpg fans but avoid at all cost Nighmare because enemies are really really spungy
    4. If you have an assassin build, try to be 1 or 2 levels above your enemies. I t will help you to play more stealthy. If you have the same level or if you're a bit underleveled, the risk is that you won't eliminate totally your target with a stealth attack
    5. Don't play this game right after Origins, The Witcher 3 or Zelda breath of the Wild. It's a little bit too similar, so you will best enjoy this game after completing other type of games (I played Concrete Genie, Bioshock Infinite, Bloodborne and Yakuza 3 before AC Odyssey)    … Expand

    One thing I've always looked for upon a release is immediate user reviews that give a game a 0-5 score. First off, it's vary rare that any AC game will ever deserve below a 6.5 score and most of that has to do with bugs or the fan base feeling as if the game has fallen away from form. However, this game doesn't deserve those types of scores no matter how you view it.

However, this game doesn't deserve those types of scores no matter how you view it. The RPG elements are enjoyable, The combat has improved from Origins, the new Exploration mode makes me want to invest more time into travelling throughout the world when normally I would just want to just follow the quest guidelines. Overall, no, this doesn't feel like a true Assassins Creed game but it is very enjoyable. I'm hoping after these next two years off UBI takes the best of what we loved at the beginning of the series and combines it with the new RPG elements. It takes away that slight linear feeling the original games had. I do miss the overall style of the original games in gear design. I haven't felt like an Assassin since the EZIO series and I wish we could bring that feeling back. Overall I'm enjoying this game about 20hrs in. The story is more enjoyable than Origins, slight frame rate drops can occur and some of the NPC voicing is laughable but this game deserves a solid 7.5/8 score overall.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really wanted to love this game,but,overall,all of its elements made it too hard to actually love it.I have been playing games in the franchise ever since the original,and the evolution from that to this is gigantic.On the surface,it is the same with its predecessor,AC Origins,but it changes something important: The grind.I would not mind so much that it takes hours over hours to get to level 50 fore example,if not for the purchaseable XP boosters.Such things should not exist in full-priced 3A games.Never.The missions required to level up are repetitive too. Let's talk about the setting:Ancient Greece.The graphics which turn this place to life are amazing,and still hold up very well to this day.The map is very big,and filled with places to steal your gaze.As for the marine environment,it could have done much better,like AC4 or even Rogue.It does not.Activities at sea are limited.Ship combat feels as if it is not fresh,it is very similar to other ship combat styles in their games.The fighting system between Athens and Sparta is alright,but gets repetitive.The mercenary system is a welcome addition,reminds me of AC Rogue in some way.
    Combat is very similar to Origins combat,and it feels repetitive very soon. Storywise,it is not bad.It all blends with the already customary historical characters and the Cult system,which are great for supporting the story.Although the story is alright,it lacks a true narrative,most dialogues are easily skippable. To me,it is not a full price worth it game,but can be bough on sale and had fun playing it    … Expand

    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.

(This is long review, you can lose time here)
    In this game, the concept of "brotherhood" is almost forgotten, there are no blades and especially hoods here, stealth has completely degraded, during the hidden murder our hero instead of graceful movements shoves an enema into the enemy, it's just ridiculous, I understand the indignation of fans of this series, which partly I am also.Ubisoft has a brand: Assassin's Creed, so they are trying to squeeze all the money out of it that can be deflated. The ancestor's DNA in the new part was “damaged”, because we can choose its gender, and also independently choose the development of its history, what I do not fully understand. Is the essence of the game not to KNOW the story of the ancestor, and not to change it? I think it will soon be possible to choose not only gender, but also race, gender, sexual orientation, isn't it? After all, everyone understands that you want this, come on.
    The combat mechanics have changed, and for the better, but still it is wooden, slow and inconvenient, and besides, it is not spectacular, have you really not seen the mechanics of Bloodborne or Dark Souls? God Of War, Spiderman after all. In terms of plot, I am ready to applaud the developers, thank you so much that the series has somehow moved a little. In the new part of the plot is not, we just play for a hero who is interested in this life only money, Clint Eastwood from the world of games. The game also has a large number of historical figures, the game is making attempts to enlighten you, descriptions of various architectural monuments, palaces and theaters have been added to the game. But from the changes I saw little of what was new, only the graphic component changes in the game, and this is great, the game is very beautiful in truth, the spirit and beauties of Ancient Greece are transmitted fantastically, I am pleased with it.    … Expand

    I’ve played every single assassins creed game since Altair was around. Odyssey builds further upon everything that origins did right about makes it better. Other than a few minor hiccups that are to be expected of a assassins creed game. This game went well above my expectations. I loved origins. But for some reason decided to skip out on odyssey, I had no rime or reason to not want toI’ve played every single assassins creed game since Altair was around. Odyssey builds further upon everything that origins did right about makes it better. Other than a few minor hiccups that are to be expected of a assassins creed game. This game went well above my expectations. I loved origins. But for some reason decided to skip out on odyssey, I had no rime or reason to not want to play it but for some reason, I just decided not too, but the Ubisoft sale was on PS4 and I got the gold edition for $40, and boy have I been missing out. I will list to you the pros of this game for me and then the cons.

    Pros- The game world is HUGE, absolutely **** massive, and the amount of things to do in it are ridiculously varied. Quests everywhere, Merc’s Hunting you down, forts to clear out and loot, cultists to identify and kill, naval battles to be had, conquest battles (which are like mini war zone areas) choosing to fight for Athens or Sparta, upgrading your spear, your ship, your armor and everything in between. Wacky side quests, romance, and everything in between that. The armor/weapon system in this game takes it the diablo way allowing you to transmogify any armor or weapon style that’s youve found before and boy is there ALOT of Styles you can mix and match. The new addition to add in “superpower”esk abilities is also great fun. The classic spartan kick that can send enemies FLYING and is ridiculously satisfying, summoning a ring of chaos that’s basically a whirlwind that sucks up and pushes enemies away from you. There are tons and tons of different skills to mix and match to fit your play style and you can have 8 equipped (12 if you count the archer abilities). The world is pretty god damn good looking it’s hard not to be impressed every time you synchronize a view point. Combat is fast and fluid and just challenging enough to keep you on your toes. Also each quest you do, almost anything you do will tell you what the rewards are for that specific mission/side mission/merc/cultist so you always know what you are getting. Naval battles are few and far apart but anytime you feel like you miss the high sea you can hunt down pirate ships, board them kill everyone and steal their treasure...or if you’re feeling merciful you can knock out almost any enemy in the game and hire them to be a lieutenant aboard your ship. Almost every time I do a mission I find something better than what I had before, you get a sense of always improving, always moving forward not once have I felt like I was stuck because of my gear or felt I was ill equipped, if you feel that way and some how DONT get any new gear from playing the game. Black smiths in the game will level up your weapons and armor to your current level so if you found a level 11 sword and find yourself at level 18 now and for some reason can’t find anything new and better. Head on over to a blacksmith to bring up your 213 damage sword to a 534 damage sword....for a few dracmae of course.

    Cons- the biggest complaint i have is the facial animations...rather just when they speak it can go from being ALRIGHT, to just god damn awful, I don’t know if Ubisoft heard of facial scan technology or not but I think it’s about time they invest in it. Another thing involving animation is the whole...weapons during a “kill cam” type situation where you execute someone or whatever is still kinda... ok, it really feels like your sword is going through a hollow enemy or something... it’s just not THAT satisfying. Don’t get me wrong it is better than what it used to be but if they Invested in some really solid decapitation style animations like the Witcher 3 did...this game would probably too 5 RPG games I’ve ever played. Moving on... for some strange reason if I get into a fight in a city or small village and I’m fighting guards or a merc, the citizens, the dogs the cows the cats and everything in between will also try and kill me for whatever reason? I’ve had a fight with a merc in a small town and the chicken across the road decided to jump in on the fight and try to kill me for whatever reason.

    Which brings me to my final point about all the fools complaining about microtrans, grow up. I have not spent a PENNY in the store and am getting along just fine. There are ALWAYS thing to do at your current level and all of them varied, you don’t need the XP booster or anything like that. If anything right now, Im a level or 2 OVER the recommended for the story missions. They don’t force you to buy anything. It is on the main menu of the game but unless you have the attention span of a squirrel or have the resolve of a heroin addict you can go through the game without opening that menu once. And either way all those items are obtainable IN GAME you don’t have to spend a penny to get the items you see in that store in the game. Of course they are more challenging to get but they made it fun by making you participate in daily and weekly quests.    … Expand

    Graphics are good but the rest is just awful. The identity of Assassin’s Creed IS LOST. If it didn’t have AC in the tile you wouldn’t even know. The RPG mechanics don’t fit this saga, combat is just silly and cartoony and the atmosphere is just too politically correct. It’s a boring and grindy game and the end of an era.

    Apesar de não parecer Assassin's Creed, Odissey ainda é um ótimo jogo. Para quem gosta de mitologia grega assim como eu, é um prato cheio; todo trabalho de pesquisa que a Ubisoft fez é realmente admirável. E claro, assim como todo game dela, o suporte que ela traz para o Brasil sempre deve ser aplaudido.

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

К тому же, не имеющую, по сути, к серии Assassin’s Creed, никакого отношения. Прошел её ещё в 2018 году, но написать решил сейчас.
    И так, встречайте: Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, так сказать........
    События самой игры происходят задолго до Origin (В которой, напомню, история всех ассасинов и началась. Так, что в Odyssey, никаких ассасинов и тамплиеров быть не может!) и "Assassin’s Creed", в названии, по мне, это просто заработок на бренде.
    Сюжет, тоже оригинальностью не блещет. После выбора персонажа через 5 минут ясно, кто будет главным антагонистом. Вообще, гемплейно, игра на 100% копирует Origin. Так, что ничего нового, тактильно, мы не почувствуем.
    Но, зато феминизм и гомосексуализм просто зашкаливает! Кто не играл, знайте, как бы это глупо не звучало, но играть лучше за женского персонажа. Выглядеть игра будет, как я уже сказал, глупее, но хотя бы не получите психологическую травму! Я выбрал мужского и вскоре об этом пожалел.
    Теперь скажу почему глупее. Просто смешно видеть, как пятидесятикилограммовая девушка расшвыривает пол сотни стокилограммовых мужиков, в доспехах, одной рукой. Так и хочется закричать "НЕ ВЕРЮ!!!". Ну, ёлки палки, какой то мультик, честное слово! Это же игра не про "капитана Марвел", прости господи, в конце концов!
    А теперь о психике. Как ни странно, половина всех нпс испытывают к протагонисту однополую тягу (если в начале выбрать мужского персонажа). В одном диалоге я просто охренел! Разговаривая с каким-то мужиком-торговцем, я, из предложенных: "Пожалеть" - "Отругать" - "Избить", выбрал первое! И каково же было моё удивление, когда вместо слов поддержки, мой протагонист начал взасос долбиться дёснами с этим мужиком, а потом, вообще, выебал его в соседнем здании! Я был в шоке! Ни ОДНОГО нпс мужского пола, в этой игре, я больше НЕ ПОЖАЛЕЛ!!!
    Так, что игра, на мой взгляд, просто дань нынешней европейской и американской моде! "Пожалеть" значит "Выебать", вот это железная логика нынешних, толерантных либералов!!! Слов нет!
    Как видно из вышесказанного, в Odyssey появились диалоги и выбор варианта ответа, которые, как мне показалось, на сюжет особого влияния не оказывают. Но зато влияют на то, будешь ли ты спариваться с данным нпс, или нет! Так, что будте осторожны! Можно случайно и честь потерять!:)
    Я не знаю почему Ubisoft так не любит греков? Считает их предков какими то развратными извращенцами. Почему Ubisoft?
    Но, что есть, то есть. И, может, если бы из названия убрали Assassin’s, а из игры анимус (который уже не знают, каким образом прикрутить к сюжету, даже смешно), получилась бы крутая игра про пидор...сов, пардон Грецию :-)    … Expand

    JUGABILIDAD:
    Las similitudes con Horizon Zero Dawn son indiscutibles, pero no es algo que demerite el juego. Al contrario, HZD fue un juego de 10 y aunque este titulo no consigue igualarlo, lo cierto es que hace un buen trabajo.

    Con un buen sistema de exploración, un sistema de combate útil y una enorme cantidad de cosas por hacer, Assassin's Creed Odyssey es el ejemplo perfecto de cómo debe ser un juego de Mundo Abierto. Con buenas misiones principales y secundarias, con una buena variedad entre ellas. Muchos campamentos por encontrar y derrotar y muchos cofres por abrir será difícil (terminar) aburrirnos con este juego.

    Los mercenarios son geniales y son un buen añadido, pero lo cierto es que en ocasiones te echan a perder algunas misiones al meterse en lo que no les importa (LOL). Derrotarlos es una victoria personal y anima a seguir jugando para poder encontrar a más de esas mini-jefes.

    El apartado inspirado en RPG es muy bueno. Mientras que muchos juegos fallan en él, aquí la personalización del outfit y los efectos que cada pieza tiene en nuestro protagonista son, si bien poco originales, apropiados para hacernos sentir que de verdad somos nosotros los que decidimos qué potenciar.

    El modo de combate me gustó bastante, es muy rápido y eficaz. La variedad de armas y, por tanto, de movimientos es buena. Aunque no deja de ser un hack&slash lo cierto es que no me imagino al juego con un método de combate más complejo.

    El árbol de habilidades está bien, al igual que las mejoras que podemos comprar para el barco. Nada especialmente espectacular pero sí muy útil a la hora de jugar.

    La jugabilidad en el barco está bien desarrollada y puede entretener bastante, aunque queda claro que no era el punto principal el crear un juego de piratas.

    La integración con Ícaro es estupenda y su ayuda como "espía" en las misiones es funcional y un buen detalle sin llegar a ser obligatorio. Puede facilitarnos mucho las cosas pero, más que eso, le da una interesante variedad al Gameplay.

    GRÁFICOS:
    Visualmente es atractivo, tanto las ciudades como las zonas abiertas se sienten con vida y están llenas de detalles que podemos apreciar.

    Las cinemáticas, sin embargo, parecen quedarse cortas y se siente poco trabajada la narrativa. Sobre todo porque las animaciones son un poco torpes.

    El estilo visual pretende ser realista, y lo cierto es que lo consigue. Pero repito: la narrativa se ha quedado muy atrás, tanto en escenas in-game como en las cinemáticas.

    SONIDO:
    El soundtrack es decente, pero sin mucho alarde. El verdadero punto fuerte del sonido son todos los efectos de fondo: murmullos, gritos, animales, la naturaleza en sí misma.

    El desarrollador ha prestado especial cuidado en que cada ciudad, bosque, costa y puerto se escuche lleno de vida.

    INNOVACIÓN:
    Desde el inicio quise dejar en claro dos cosas:
    1- Nunca he sido fan de un AC (hasta ahora)
    2- El juego recuerda mucho, mucho a HZD

    Dicho eso, no creo poder argumentar a favor de la innovación del título, más que en aquellos detalles puntuales como Ícaro.    … Expand

I did give Black Flag a chance on the PS3 but it didn’t stick with me for some reason, and since then I haven’t touched an Assassin’s Creed game until now, after hearing a lot of good stuff about Odyssey. People seem to recommend it based on its RPG elements, as well as its beautifully crafted world and countless hours of playtime.

    I believe I’m somewhere midway through the story, I haven’t been prompted to visit all islands yet and I tend to let the story tell me where to go, and I’ve probably spent 80 hours or so playing. There is A LOT of content and optional side quests and I’ve only recently begun to focus mainly on the story because for a while I almost burnt myself out doing quests that (originally unbeknownst to me) get refreshed continually. My OCD prevents me from leaving ?-marks untouched on the map and I guess I’ll just have to live with the fact that there are markers for optional quests cluttering my map, and those markers will just never go away.

    If you play this game, you will do yourself a big favor by ignoring the timeglass quests which don’t serve any purpose besides padding your XP. They don’t make any sense either and they’re all the same: ”Bandits come here and destroy our crops, please help, we only want peace” (spoken by a peaceful looking old woman), ”Oh, so you want me to gut all the bandits?” ”Yes,” the peaceful lady goes, ”all of them must DIE.” and you just sit there wondering what’s going on. Anyway.

    I do have a problem with this sort of wide-open narrative because it feels disjointed and I sometimes wish I could just do the main story and be happy but at the same time I feel the urge to explore everything the world has to offer. The world is beautifully crafted but can feel quite hollow since a lot of the quests are the same and the world just feels like a static scenery that you run back and forth through.

    I enjoy the RPG elements and the ability to upgrade weapons and change their appearance is great, because if you find a weapon that has good perks you can always upgrade its overall damage, making them accurate for your level. I hated finding weapons with great stats in The Witcher 3 only for them to be quite useless after I’d gained two levels or so. Also, you can change the appearance of your gear so you won’t have to deal with a dramatic climax being ruined because your character is dressed in a tuxedo with combat boots, a beenie and black/golden Elvis glasses (looking at you, CP2077 - it actually had me laughing through the climactic ending because, well, it’s just impossible to take someone serious when they look like they’ve literally fallen unconscious and gotten dressed up by 3-year olds at a flee market). Anyway.

    I don’t really have anything bad to say about the graphics and animation - overall it looks great in my opinion, and it plays great and feels fluid like it should. It’s not GoW, but it’s what I’d expect from an Assassin’s Creed game. The combat does become a bit repetitive and after a while fights become too easy, but luckily there are mercenaries with certain abilities/perks who might still present a challenge.

    Kassandra is a likeable character and I really like her voice-acting. The supporting cast is mostly just good but nothing stellar apart from a few exceptions. Being a history buff with an interest in ancient Greek philosophy helps to make the story interesting.

    Like others have said, it feels more like a ”spartan warrior”-story than a ”templar vs assassin”-story, but the precursors of the templars and assassins are still there waiting to be uncovered. I would’ve liked a larger focus on modern day/animus and the whole conspiracy-aspect of AC though.

    Microtransactions are there, yes, but they can easily be ignored.

    Great music. Quite interesting character arc/development, Kassandra is likeable, the world is huge but ultimately feels quite hollow (though beautiful)…

    At this point though I sort of just want to get on with the story. The game is like watching a 5-hour movie, you can’t help but feel like it would’ve been better if it was a bit more densely packed and effective in its execution. The grand scale instead, at least to me, lessens the impact that I believe the story could have had had it been shorter/denser.    … Expand

    The beginning of the game is not much fun and a bit grindy but after about 8 hours, it is so much fun! The story is not awesome but decent and unique how they did the brother-sister thing. Naval combat, exploration, killing mercenaries, fighting in the arena; were some of my favorite things to do. The animus interactions suck but luckily they aren't a bunch.

    This is a game I enjoyed very much initially, and I didn't think I'd spend nearly as much time with it as I did. Ubisoft's single players games lately have surprised me with how much they, as a publisher and variety of development studios, have learned in what makes a game fun. However, there are some poor choices that hamper what could have been a great experience in open world gameThis is a game I enjoyed very much initially, and I didn't think I'd spend nearly as much time with it as I did. Ubisoft's single players games lately have surprised me with how much they, as a publisher and variety of development studios, have learned in what makes a game fun. However, there are some poor choices that hamper what could have been a great experience in open world game design.

    What really blows me away about this game is the presentation. All of Greece is amazing to look at, and when the sun sets in certain areas, casting a palpable atmosphere upon the game's excellently-modeled foliage and buildings. The visuals really deserve more praise than I've seen, even if they're not the absolute best in AAA gaming; they have a way in drawing the player into its world. Characters seem convincingly-modeled to me, their animations are par the course and don't seem janky, and have poly counts befitting a AAA detail-focused developer such as Ubisoft. In particular, I like the designs for all the armor and weapons in the game; I'm clueless if they're period-accurate, but they are yet another element of the game that draws me in. The way the gear (weapons, armor) looks and knowing how much of it there is in the game provides a decent reward for exploring the game's world, in principle. This is where we run into a problem: the game's level-scaling. Most gear you find is scaled to your level, which is fine, but makes it so older, more beloved sets of armor can quickly become outdated to sate the game's padded stat system. It's a numbers game, and that means you'll find yourself switching gear around to have more defense and do more damage if you are like me and prefer playing efficiently rather than stylishly. Luckily, mismatched sets of gear don't look bad together, and there are ways to upgrade sets of gear that aren't feasible to wear anymore at the blacksmith (just note that the cost of resources and drachmae, the in-game currency, may not be worth the effort if you know you're going to pick up something almost as good in the next half hour).

    To iterate on this being a "numbers game," as mentioned earlier: enemies can have a baffling amount of HP compared to you on the game's hardest difficulties, which makes the early game both frustrating and more fun. What makes it frustrating is the knowledge that one mistake could cost you 90% of your health bar if you're fighting something, or someone, a few levels above you with one attack. Fortunately, the game's combat system is surprisingly simple, yet effective at learning quickly. The best advice I can think to give for the early game is to get your parry-timing down, the game's combat lives and dies by your reflexes. Nothing is overly unfair if you play the game normally and aren't looking to try fighting things tens of levels above you (a certain Cyclops I encountered comes to mind). The game can feel bloated thanks to enemies having a lot of health, even with the level scaling set to "default". If Ubisoft made things have less HP in the next Assassin's Creed, it would certainly be an improvement, as the way things are, leveling feels unsatisfying when nothing is really below your level, only above it.

    I found the open world in this game to be decent, though it is designed in a way that could use a lot of improvement. It's too big, simply put. There's only so much variation you can do with a world of this size, and it shows; there's lot of gorgeous, yet empty land for Alexios to walk across. This is aided by the game's acoustic guitar-laden score, but knowing you're probably going to trek over another hill to find another cave with the same assets as the last six you visited ruins what could have been a far, better experience had Ubisoft gone for a more focused game map. What breaks up the monotony is the game's wildlife and enemies, often you'll see bears fighting lions out in the wild, only for some soldier to stroll by and get attacked. The game's world, for our current generation of consoles, can certainly feel alive at times, despite the emptiness. Shooting deer, and hunting other animals makes traversing ancient Greece more fun, but it's still a band-aid on a wound that doesn't have to be there with a little more work on Ubisoft's part. Enemy camps are fun to dismantle but it wasn't long before I started feeling as if I was doing the same thing over and over again. This is helped out by the player progression of the game; using ability points to learn and improve skills gives players new and fun ways to dispatch enemies, be it through stealth, or range, or running in to start a brawl.

    The variety of quests shares a similar issue as above; there is a problem with variety, but dialogue is on-point and often funny. It's a game that gives great first impressions but holds up less and less as you keep playing it. Since writing, I've played Origins and am saddened that this was basically a downgrade in every way. Play Origins instead.    … Expand

There is plenty in the form of customizing and even creating different builds with armor attributes and skills you can choose to level up. A lot to pursue like killing cultists to uncover their leader, the main story quest, tons of great side quests with dialogue decisions that determine the outcome of the stories. Discovering ancient Greece is great, the environments are interesting and look great. I found myself really interested in the story and all the different characters. The things that brought this game down a bit for me is the loss of it feeling like an Assassin game, I just felt like a Greek soldier really, if I’m not running around on rooftops with my hood up and hidden blades it just doesn’t feel the same. There is also a lot of needless microtransactions and level gating that annoyed me more than anything else. There is no real reward or incentive for sneaking around while you can’t even assassinate people with one hit most of the time. Also, the sheer size of the game started feeling too much when I finished off the number 1 ranked bounty hunter (which took a while to do) a whole new list of higher ranking bounty hunters popped up, I finally succumbed and said yeah this game is a little too big. Overall, I’m not sure if this new AC formula is the way to go, it does have some good things going for it, just not sure if its better than the previous just yet.… Expand

I did not find the first DLC offering very original as it tended to follow a similar pattern to the main story, but the second DLC (Atlantis) I really enjoyed. I managed to clock well over 400 hours on odyssey finding a few bugs and bits of lag. Also the ship combat element began to fell repetitive after a few hours on the sea. This does not stop me giving this game a 10/10. The micro transactions are not intrusive or necessary so do not impact gameplay.… Expand

    Now I have to admit that Odyssey is not the game for everyone, but it definitely was the game for me. Still I gave it a rating downgrade for the grindy nature.

Still I gave it a rating downgrade for the grindy nature.

    Let's get to the parts I loved while playing this.

    1. Setting
    Assassin's Creed Odyssey is set in ancient greece and executes this theme with mastery. The map consists of a continental part where the story takes place and a bunch of islands with side quests. The different areas are not hugely distinct from each other but there are differences and after all they are modeled after the real greece, so there was not that much freedom for the world building. One thing that stands out is the mythology. Ubisoft managed to weave it into the AC-Lore. I don't know about the AC part but it is a really exciting way to look at these ancient tales. This is especially true for the Atlantis DLC.

    2. Combat
    In my opinion the combat in Odyssey was extremely fun, skill based and open to experiment with. There are plenty of fun and useful abilities. The variety of gear with stats that really matter makes it possible to create lots of different builds that all feel unique. With the right build it is possible to beat every enemy that is up to 10 levels above the level of you and your gear.
    The stealth system worked a lot different from that in other parts of the series though. The main difference being that stealth is now a choice you have to actively make. I think this is a good design decision. I played huge parts of the game as an Assassin and had a stealth focused build up to the point where that got way to easy (killed every miniboss in one assassination + ability and did stealth area damage). I had to sacrifice some physical strength to achieve that though.
    Ship battles were not that exciting but still ok and rather optional.

    3. Story/Immersion
    Not only the world design but also the quest design is focused on letting you feel ancient greece. While the gameplay of the quests is ok and the storytelling has its highs and lows, with the best being the island side quests and the ending, what really stands out is the immersion. I was able to do everything I wanted to do in Greece and the story fully revolved around feeling like a greek hero. Slaying beasts, fighting epic battles, invading fortresses or forging mighty weapons which, together with your skills, let you feel like a god.

    As stated above you might not like Odyssey. You might start the game, play 20 hours then get bored of the gameplay and move on. This game has flaws, for example the repetitiveness or the amount of time it takes to level yourself or your gear up. I was constantly at the need of upgrade material. However, if you love the theme of Greece and its politics or mythology, if you like a varied combat system and like hours of it, chances are you'll love this game.
    I am such a person. I sunk 230 hours into this game and its two DLC's and I don't regret a single minute of it. And if there was more of it I sure as hell would play that as well. I did every cultist, every riddle, every quest or side quest, fought my way to the top of the mercenary ranking, collected every legendary gear piece that can be found on the map and even completed every single one of the roughly 750 locations on the map. So yes, I loved that game.    … Expand

    By trying to create the largest world they could, Odyssey failed to create one that felt lived in and interesting.

As an Assassin's Creed fan, this game breaks all the lore they have established over the years and doesn't fit within the core themes established from the rest of the franchise. By trying to make the next Witcher 3, Ubisoft went away from what fans loved about their games to make a watered down RPG experience. While Assassin's Creed has always had supernatural plot points, most of the world and gameplay was still grounded in historical realism. Odyssey ignores this concept to instead give the player superhuman and game breaking abilities which can make combat more flashy, but break all immersion when you see your assassin teleport throughout battles and survive 100m falls.… Expand

Viniendo incluso a darte puñetazos y sin parar, uno tras otro.

La tercera misión me pide ir a hablar con alguien, que seguramente me pida ir a algún FUERTE a salvar a algún colega.

    This game is pretty good but falls short of greatness. The storyline is mediocre and so are the characters. It's also quite different from traditional assassins creed games but I view that as a good thing as I found the old formula quite stale and AC Unity was the last AC game I played and I wasn't able to finish it.

    Pros: * This game is huge and looks very good for such a large open    This game is pretty good but falls short of greatness. The storyline is mediocre and so are the characters. It's also quite different from traditional assassins creed games but I view that as a good thing as I found the old formula quite stale and AC Unity was the last AC game I played and I wasn't able to finish it.

    Pros:
    * This game is huge and looks very good for such a large open world game.
    * The gameplay is quite addictive. I loved how they changed the gameplay to become more of an RPG. You can optimise your playthrough to become either a Hunter (archer), Warrior, or Assassin. I've read that being a Hunter does the most DPS but I find being an archer boring so I went for a Warrior/Assassin hybrid. The warrior combat is the most fun.

    Being an Assassin is also necessary as a lot of fortresses have way too many soldiers to kill in open combat so it's good to invest in this skill tree and find weapons/armour that increase your assassination damage. Unlike with older AC titles, many times you cannot assassinate someone with a one hit kill despite sneaking up on them. This being more of an RPG, you need to invest points into the Assassin tree and optimise your weapons/armour to deal the most damage whilst you're sneaking around. Usually polemarchs/warlords and captains cannot be killed in a one hit kill assassination but investing in the assassin tree still makes sense as your assassin damage is exponentially higher than your warrior damage so you can deal most of your damage upfront making open combat a little easier.
    * Gameplay is more varied than past AC games (except maybe origins but I haven't played that). You play as a mercenary so you can side with either Athens or Sparta. I chose to remain neutral as you get better loot that way.
    ** There are conquest battles which is like one big battle between Athens and Sparta and a few mercenaries. These are heaps of fun and one of my favourite aspects of this game. I always choose the side which has a difficulty rating of hard (the other being normal) as you get better loot that way.
    ** There are mercenaries who hunt you down when you get a "wanted" rating, for example when you commit crime out in the open such as stealing or murder. At first I thought these mercenaries were unique as they appear in the mercenaries menu however they get replaced by other mercenaries so this can get quite repetitive. For e.g. I killed over 250 mercenaries in my playthrough.
    ** Fortresses and/or bandit camps. You need to take out fortresses which involves killing polemarchs/captains, destroying supplies, and looting treasures to lower the nation rating to trigger conquest battles.

    Cons:
    * My biggest complaint with this game is that it's very repetitive. I personally found the gameplay addictive enough to get through this however I still felt that it was a slog a lot of the time. The world is huge but much of it is recycled. If you've done one fortress, you've done them all. I would've preferred for this game to be more varied in its quests at half the length. Mercenaries was a nice touch even though it blatantly ripped off the Shadow of Mordor/War series.
    * The storyline and characters were mediocre at best. As the protagonist, Kassandra has a much better voice actress than Alexios so if you're choosing to play this game as a female or male, pick female. Pretty much all of the character you meet are forgettable and it's hard to care what happens to them.
    * Horse riding speed is very slow inside or near cities. Basically when your horse trots around in a city, that's the same speed as running so you're better off not using your horse in cities as while running, you're better able to traverse through obstacles like climbing over walls, houses, etc.
    * Bugs and more bugs. Most of the bugs I encountered in my 70 hour playthrough weren't game breaking but more annoying. AC titles are buggier than a lot of AAA titles I've played. The main one is characters disappearing and reappearing elsewhere during combat or disappearing altogether. This one probably isn't a bug, but sometimes Kassandra can climb over a wall or column that is pretty much flat but other times she can't climb something which is obviously less smooth. Not a huge deal but breaks the immersion as it's inconsistent.
    * Choices and consequences. Most of your decisions don't really influence anything, at least not long term. There are a few decisions that do however but these are few and far in between. Romance is the most shallow as you can "romance" some people and they'd go off and do their thing offscreen but you'll never see them again unless it's storyline related and they'd act as if it never happened. The game also gives the impression that it was written for a male main character as most besides one or two or Kassandra's love interests are female. Whilst I don't mind my character being a lesbian, it would've been nice to have more options.
    * The game is lazy with its weapons and armour.    … 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]
