    The graphics are beyond anything I have seen on the PS4 so far, with the possible exception of Horizon: Zero Dawn. It's interesting to see two games from such different corners converge on phenomenal open world magic, and i can't wait for game developer details about the underlying engine.

    I am really please with the main story line and side quests - both are extremely well scripted, and don't have the feeling of rote going through the motions I've had in recent Bioware games. I just played through a series of side quests in the wrong order, discovered that they still worked real well and was amazed at how they were tied together (if you had missed the first two that I did you would find them as part of doing the third and they would logically tie together). Some people appear to have put a lot of thought into this, and they clearly were very successful.

    I have not encountered bugs or performance issues in gameplay, which for a game of this scope this close to release is quite frankly astounding. I supposed playing the console version helps (controlled environment), but the experience is rock solid and compares favourably to the previous two iterations of the franchise.

    The locations are another high point for me - the different provinces each have a unique feel and the elements (houses, furniture) don't feel repetitive. To add sugar on top, you can see other provinces from pretty much everywhere.    … Expand

    I’d swear it’s the Xbox crowd trying to give the PS4 version a bad name. The new update with HDR on my Sony 4K on PS 4 Pro is just stunning with fantastic frame rate. I just can’t believe such smooth gameplay with such awesome graphics.

    The game mechanics and fighting is so real. The boats and travelling and climbing all so smooth. I’d give this game 100/100. It’s better than Tomb Raider and Unchartered and that’s saying heaps.

    I did hear disgruntled Xbox X players saying for a $100extra their version doesn’t look any better than the PS4 Pro so they are really not happy. Maybe they came here trying to denigrate what is a classic.

    There’s always day one bugs but I bought mine a week later so I have the update and it’s awesome.

    Zero score is pure fanboyism and it’s sad that reviews of such a brilliant game is tarnished by these idiots.    … Expand

    One of the best games I have ever played, it has all the fun that we need nowadays:
    - Huge open world
    - Good story and missions
    - Incredible detailed world and graphics
    - Loot
    - Day/night cycle
    - Some fun activities
    - Hunt for resources
    - A nice skill tree
    - Excellent stealth

    Highly recommended!

This is the first time in a long time I wasn't yawning halfway through the main story. This has to be hands down one of the greatest settings for a videogame. No more lame buildings with the same look every 2 minutes. Each zone has its own unique look and feel. The combat did feel a little clunky at first, but honestly, I was just bad at the game. Levels 2,3,4,5 I was getting schooled 1v1 by some enemies. Once I got out of the old habit of trying to spam kill and adapted strategy, by level 6 I was 5v1ing these enemies. They also streamlined gathering too. No crappy animation to wait for, just kill and loot. Oh, and the skill tree is actually a skill tree with something to look forward to. No stupid 5% damage buff crap. You actually get new skills. I was actually thinking about passing this up because that's what I've done the past few years. I'm so glad I didn't. This game is a blast to play. Oh, and to the crybabies whining about micro transactions here's a little tip for you... You don't HAVE to buy them. I don't get why anyone would but obviously people do or they wouldn't be in the game. Look at it this way. If you could get paid a little more money for your work, would you? Now shut up and go make a better game.… Expand

For one this AC has the best map, the open world I feel is perfected in this entry. Being able to see the massive pyramids from many different locations far away on the map makes it feel like one big neighborhood and ties everything together nicely. The combat has been redone as well to make it a bit more challenging and in depth. Before the combat was merely like Batman and relied heavily on counters, now it has more of an action rpg feel to it where you lock on to targets and fight a bit more tactfully. There is also much more variety, 4 different types of bows, and a gear system.

    Egypt is probably the most beautifully done areas they have presented thus far. I have not encountered any bugs, although I know many AC games have this I have yet to encounter any. I would not take reviews seriously that overblow this or act like they played half the game and saw bugs everywhere. It simply isn't true. This is a fantastic return for Assassin's Creed however people will hate on it because of the name alone, 10/10 for me. Awesome new display of currently technology. Forgot to mention that the designs of Egypt, weapons, outfits.. are OUTSTANDING. Special props to the team who does the designs, the level of detail is always impressive in AC and something I thoroughly have enjoyed in Origins.    … Expand

Apart from that, ancient Egypt is really stunning and exploring this beautiful world is actually rewarding. Combat is the best in the series and leveling up, whatever the game, is always fun and addicting.

The setting of ancient Egypt is beautiful and interesting (just got a 4K tv and a pspro on Black Friday and it's the best looking game I've ever laid my eyes on!). The map is huge! So much to explore, you can even swim to the bottom of every lake and ocean in the game, if you can see it you can go there. The map is so big at the end of the main story line I hadn't even visited it all, not even close really. I still have a million things to do after the main story concludes and that's not a bad thing. Tons of side quests, gladiator arena events, dlc boss battles, many a location yet undiscovered, on and on. The amount of content here is unreal.

    As for the story, I enjoyed it, for me it's more about gameplay and the combat, whether it be a lowly guard or boss fight or gladiator arena event or the few black flag inspired ship battles it's all a blast.

    I know micro transactions are a sticky subject I'm an old ass gamer who hates them! I'll just say I never once even looked at what's was available in store. I just played the game on normal difficulty and the game progression was spot on, levelling up abbility and gear was a non issue, enemies never felt cheap and for an action rpg I never felt it was a grind.

    I'll openly admit I quite dislike the AC franchise. The only AC game I've ever played prior to Origins was Liberation on my Vita. It was so dull and boring I never even finished it. However, I was fascinated by Ancient Egypt ever since I was a child so I decided to give Origins a try. And wow, it's much better than I imagined.

    First of all, massive kudos to Ubisoft's art department! The effort and talent that went into creating the universe of Origins is nothing short of impressive. You can get lost for days just roaming around in the world, admiring the beautiful scenery. The game looks simply amazing on my 4KTV.

    There's an unbelievable amount of content as well. Main quests, side quests, tombs to raid, treasures to find, enemy camps and forts to infiltrate, horse racing... If you love huge open world games with hundreds of secrets to discover, you'll love Origins. The characters and story are pretty interesting as well!

    The great audio-visual presentation is accompanied by smooth controls, and it's just as much pleasure to play this game as it is to look at it. There are some minor graphical glitches (NPCs spazzing out, pots of oil randomly spawning in the air and then slowly descending into water) and once I got stuck inside a wall and was unable to get out, but this was quickly fixed by simply fast-traveling to the nearest vantage point. They're not frequent, though, and the beautiful world itself makes Origins well worth your time. I'm absolutely in love with this game and I'll be sure to give the franchise another try.

    Pros:
    - absolutely beautiful open world
    - massive amount of content and a vast area to explore
    - good controls
    - great sound and visuals

    Cons:
    - occasional glitches
    - the RPG elements aren't very deep, it's just basic "level up to unlock skill points to buy abilities" and "gather stuff to upgrade equipment"    … Expand

    Sin duda alguna uno de los mejores juegos que he experimentado, y cambien uno de los mejores AC que he jugado,un nuevo camino al éxito de esta saga que si necesitaba un cambio.

    I must say I really love and enjoying AC Origins. It's still Assassins Creed, but much bigger and there is so much to do and see, I played for almost 10 hours now and every new area blows me away (i'm still not very far in the story missions, and if i'm correct you can get 50-70 hours of gameplay out of it all).

Sometimes the fighting is a little bit difficult, it is a learning process. Overall I can say it's a good and very enjoyable game. (the climbing is also improved!) For me this is the best AC there is, just because it's an open world where you can do and see everything, from animals to pyramids and the gameplay is fluid. It's a 10/10 for me.… Expand

    The best AC game I've played,ever. Its a blast--a well designed truly enjoyable adventure. And it doesnt force sophomoric sci fi down your throats like other AC games. This one is a MUST HAVE.

    Origins is a great game, it's a new wave in genre, in entire AC. Story line and side quests are very exiting, seriously it's the first AC where it is a pleasure to complete or even took a side quest. Graphics is good, especially on PS4, very nice, had one small animation bug, but that's OK.
    Thanks for the game Ubi!

    10/10 Because this game deserves better than a 7.9. this is my attempt to bring the average back up. It is a solid 9/10 game. It is a flushed out RPG, compelling/ memorable main & side quests, much improved combat, and a wonderfully crafted open world.

    This game is akin to the Witcher 3, the best game ever made, and that is a great thing.

    Struggling a little with combat I'm so used to countering then killing like all the other AC games if you think the combat is simple compared to the other games your in for a little surprise!

    YES! there is a Helix credit system, so for people who don't have time to grind can buy in-game currency to spend and some weapons can be unlocked via Uplay credits which are free to earn via your Uplay account anyway. I personally don't buy in-game content at all and only believe that if micro-transactions are on multiplayer games it is unfair.... for single player games the only things you buy with your real money for in-game currency..... if you even want to buy them only affects your personal experience for campaign, not like GTA Online, Battlefield, Battlefront 1 & 2 Loot Packs etc etc so for single player content i don't mind but I personally don't buy content from any game I play!

    Apart from that 10/10 definately an upgrade for syndicate and the bugged monster Unity!

    The combat is challenging and thoughtful, and while the loot system doesn’t match up to games like Destiny 2, there are enough different weapon types and enough enemy variety to keep you swapping between weapons, catered to the situation.

Unity and Syndicate both introduced small changes to the AC formula, while keeping the core principal untampered - find your target in a sprawling city, stealth your way to him vertically or horizontally and try your best to assassinate him by stabbing him in the back with your hidden blade, or if push comes to shove, use your assortment of other weapons to dispatch your target(s).

    Origins takes the core idea and builds around it a larger scope of gameplay variety, while placing it in an open world environment. These are no subtle alterations, nor are they a departure from what makes an Assassin's Creed game an Assassin's Creed experience. Everything is still here, but bigger. Previous titles had upgrade mechanics, while Origins has a skill tree separated into three branches. All three compliment the core gameplay mechanics, thus alloweing the player to mix and match his favorite style of gameplay.

    The setting for this installment - Ancient Egypt - is probably the most popular historical period in my personal opinion when looking back at the previous games. The world is sprinkled with amazing sights. While exploring, the player can come across a plethora of side activities that are not as cumbersome as in previous games in the series. That is because the development teams at Ubisoft drastically downsized the amout of collectables and opted for a larger emphasis on side quests, where each has its own unique storyline that ties with the main plot.

    Overall Assassin's Creed Origins is a healthy return to form for the series! It feels like a true sequel that builds upon the core concept of the series.    … Expand

    I am comfortable saying this is the best Assassins Creed game and would go on record saying to me, this is the best game I have ever played.

    I find it hard to believe that you can give this game a negative review. I have never played a game with the size and beauty this game has to offer. Sure there are still some weaknesses as every game has had but the strengths greatly outweigh those weaknesses. The game itself does not entirely feel like an assassin’s creed game. It feels like I am playing Witcher 3 with Assassin’s Creed mechanics, in terms of character and mission depth. The glaring weakness in this game is stealth. Seems like Ubisoft took a step backwards when it comes to stealth but then again, you must realize this character does not start off as a trained assassin who know how to operate stealthy. I have never felt anything repetitive in this game which has been a downfall for previous games. The looting is quicker, the customization is endless, and the ability tree helps regulate story and character flow.    … Expand

    "Jaw Dropping". Assassins Creed Origins is really a Jaw Dropping RPG Game. I wasn't expecting boring, I was expecting something epic that this Assassins Creed will be the best of the best of the Assassins Creed Series yet! The Storyline wasn't that good but the cut scenes on each Main Quest is really good especially on the side quest. The Combat, seems fair nor unfair but still good. What"Jaw Dropping".

    I've been playing it for 30hrs now and I still feel like I was playing The Witcher 4 (which from me is a huge compliment). This game is beautiful, varied, exciting, deep, and you learn a bunch of things about Ancient Egypt, Greece and Roman Empire (which is quite cool actually).

    For me this is clearly a must-have with a lot of things to do, to learn and to experience.

    For me this is clearly a must-have with a lot of things to do, to learn and to experience.

    What makes it epic:

    - the hero is a real badass (and it's very pleasant to have him breaking enemy's bones)

    - the open world is unique and mesmerizing

    - quests are varied with always a good storytelling behind

    - you learn things about ancient cultures while playing (and this fun/educational aspect is unique these days)

    For me this is definitely the best AC and probably one of the best game this year (just behind BotW).    … Expand

    Assassin's Creed: Origins is the best game in the series, but it's a mediocre action RPG at its core. In this sense, it both succeeds and fails at being a much-needed franchise shakeup.

    Origins is the newest installment in rather worn out series and a much appreciated and needed refresh. New combat and graphically fantastic environment with tons of content will gave you some nice moments. The game is not a blast but it is a proof that AC is back on the right track again, for now.

    With a beautiful world you'll repeatedly die for and lethal toys to play with, Assassin's Creed Origins finally delivers the game you always wanted from the series. Brilliant. [Christmas 2017, p.87]
