    The micro-transactions in a single player game killed the game for me. To those interested do not get the game UNLESS you enjoy endless roman killing / stupid boring grinding.

    Probably the best title since AC2. Great characters, AWESOME world, lot of things to do and didn't get a single drop of frames (At least, in my case).

    A fresh new start for the series.

    I'm giving this game 0 points on general principle. Here's why:

    There's a game concept that's free-to-play on mobile platforms: "If you wanna get somewhere in a reasonable amount of time, pay up! If you don't, feel free to play our game, but be prepared for countless hours of grinding." Ubisoft decided to take this approach with ACO - a full-price title!

    There's a game concept that's free-to-play on mobile platforms: "If you wanna get somewhere in a reasonable amount of time, pay up! If you don't, feel free to play our game, but be prepared for countless hours of grinding."

    Ubisoft decided to take this approach with ACO - a full-price title! Am I wrong in thinking I have the right to be spared this unethical behavior after having shelled out over € 60? This is at eye level with Star Wars Battlefront II.

    And they don't even bother to mask this approach. You have this gigantic open world, but every guard, every bandit, every animal is leveled, and if their level exceeds yours, it's certain death for you. Doesn't matter how good you are, they will kill you because their level says so. So in this open world sandbox you have to do what completely goes against open world sandboxes: You have to follow the narrative's path and take on every side quest you encounter, so you can level up to proceed to the next area - and even then the XP system is designed in such a way that it's still not enough, so you have to sink hours in hunting and farming for miniscule XP rewards - or pay real money, and Ubisoft doesn't tire of reminding you that they think that's a really cool option. Wanna go exploring in an open world sandbox game? Pay the retail price all over again, level up to 40, and you can do so!

    And if that wasn't enough, Ubisoft went and paid some Southwest Asian click farm to spam Metacritic with fake 10s. ACO could be the greatest game ever to hit home consoles - this behavior deserves 0 points and hopefully sales figures way below expectations. This is an unacceptable business model, and I hope the chickens come round to roost.    … Expand

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

Let me get the positives out of the way first, the environment in this game looks beautiful, the map is huge. But that's about the only positive that I can think of for this game. Let's start with the bad, the revamped battle system is complete sht. They tried to copy Witcher 3's battle system, which is arguably the worst part of Witcher 3. It's slow, unresponsive, and generally not very fun to get into fights. The biggest issue with the fighting system is this, the enemies can dash backwards, you can't dash forward. So that means you have to walk forward slowly to attack, while the enemies can hit you at that time. So that made most of the melee weapons useless (other than as a finisher when the enemies are stunned). Did they even test play this system? How the f did it even get past testing? So for most of the game I resort to using bow and arrow. They also nerfed the hidden blade, now it'll only do maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of the health of the mini bosses. In AC1 if you can time it perfectly you can one hit kill the final boss with a hidden blade counter! Now that's obviously too OP, but there's no reason to nerf the hidden blade this much. The leveling and experience gain also have issues. The exp you gain for kill enemies are very low, that's fine by itself. But they have made the game very level based, any enemies more than 3 levels higher you basically can't kill. So now I have to grind for exp. I'm sure this bs is put into the game to encourage people to buy their Time Savers Pack. I usually don't even mind grinding if the grinding feels natural, but this feels like they deliberately force you to grind (by nerfing the hidden blade) so you'll have to grind for levels. If you don't want to grind then you'll have to buy microtransactions. I think this is the last AC game for me. No more of this bs. I'll be waiting for the big gaming crash of these big publishers. When someone else can buy these IPs for cheap after they crash, they might start to make some good games again.… Expand

Come on guys! Really!? Don't be such cry babies!
    If you liked previous Assassin's Creed games, then you will love this one too. You can play it in many different ways: Play it like Witcher 3, put more accent on the side quests, explore wonderful world of ancient Egypt, explore tombs, mountains forests and cities, help people along the way, collect goods and advance Bayek’s abilities. Play it in Ezo and Altair style and be an deadly assassin using stealth, sleep darts, poison, smokescreen, parkour and climbing.

    Maybe you like direct approach so, use melee type of fighting. Shields, three types of swords and four types of heavy weapons like blunts, scepters spears and blades should be enough for even fierced Warriors.

    Don't like close combat? No problem! You can be deadly (and stealthy) from a distance: use variety of bows and arrows (you can choose between four types of bows).

    You will learn to appreciate Senu’s eagle vision more than you think, but be warned: scouting with Senu can ruin some exploration delights.

    Love Lions? Then tame one! It's a deadly companion! Horses and camels are too slow for you? Use chariots instead! I can write a dozen tips like this.

    There is fiew bad things too. For exsample, fighting with some enemies feels awkward, like you are connected to each other with a rubber band.You cannot escape series or blows and will most likely end up dead.
    Fire. Bayak’s outfit (no matter which one) acts like it is made of paper and catches fire pretty damn quickly so avoid those god damn, in floor level, brassieres!
    And last, supernatural cut scenes. You will see plenty of those. I won't spoil anything, but that was a bit too
    much for my taste. Ubisoft should left it out or make it in some other way.

    This game was not meant to be played in a rush. You have to be patient with it. Learn fighting mechanics, plan ahead, use tactics, upgrade your weapons and skills. Enemies are not so dumb anymore. In other words take your time and enjoy gameplay. It's not a perfect game, but Ubisoft made this one really good.    … Expand

The game has a lot of content and when I say a lot I mean a lot. The campaign will take you roughly 15HRS, but with so much side content this can easily be stretched to 30+. I personally liked Bayek. I thought he was serious when he needed to be serious and very charming and funny when he needed to be funny. A great blend of serious and charismatic. I have been asking for a Assassin's Creed in Egypt for a long time, and wanted it more than the Japan and and Future. I am glad we finally got it because Egypt has countless possibilities to do. I am a little disappointed they chose 49-46BC rather than Ramses II and Moses 1280BC. Where there could of been the plagues of Egypt, meeting Moses, the parting of the Red Sea. Now that would of been something to see, but maybe that was pushing it to far with the time. With that said I am happy we got an Egypt AC game and I am stoked it turned out this good.

There is an insane amount of side missions to keep you busy and plenty of animals to hunt.

Trying to take on anyone with a higher level then myself was damn near impossible, they would kick my ars. The only real issues i had wear 1) The stupid button layout are not remappable so your are stuck using the **** default button mapping, I finally got used to it by the time I finished the game. 2) The story was good but they could use some better writers especially on side missions, and make some more memorable NPCs.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This review is partial and coming from a non AC player in the past, but have always been interested. I have played this game around 8 hours since picking it up on launch day.
    My first impressions where that the grapics were amazing on my PS4 Pro, even though I have only been to two sections on this huge map , Siwa and the following area. There was plenty to do in this part of the game including main quest and side missions.
    I have really enjoyed it so far as I have always been interested in ancient Egypt. I'm hoping missions do not get too repetitive. So far I see a variety.
    Traveling to enemy controlled areas/bases have been fun. Sneaking around and assassinating soldiers, although not complicated, while your charatcter hides in the tall grass. During these parts of the game a main boss will need to be eliminated. Difficulty of a boss is based on rank. XP allows you to gain a higer number rank which I am currently at 8. Of course trying to take on a higher ranked character than yourself usually turns out for the worse for you.
    With that being said you usually have to explore, complete side missions, and level up to move on. It will definetly be harder to just complete the main quest portion of the game in order to finish the game faster. Get ready to grind!
    Combat for the most part works. Hit and dodge is the tactic here. You have the ability to lock on to one target at a time. There are many weapon variations to loot along the way. You can use a bow and arrow and switch over to a sword, axe and several other melee weapons based on the situation.
    You travel from place to place on your horse, camel or other means and have fast travel options.
    You also have a sidekick in the form of a bird that is seen in third person. This allows you to search the map for locations, enemies and most importantly scout ahead.
    From what I have read this game is dramatically different from the previous AC titles. Hopefully this review has helped you decide if this game will be of interest or a waste of time and money. I personally am excited to venture farther into this game and huge map !    … Expand

    Things like skill trees and crafting systems have been slipping their way into Assassin's Creed for a while now. Origins however is the first game in the series to fully embrace the RPG genre. Boldly redefining the franchise while taking us back to the earliest days of the Brotherhood.

    As interested as I was in seeing how the Assassins got their start, I didn't care about the    Things like skill trees and crafting systems have been slipping their way into Assassin's Creed for a while now. Origins however is the first game in the series to fully embrace the RPG genre. Boldly redefining the franchise while taking us back to the earliest days of the Brotherhood.

    As interested as I was in seeing how the Assassins got their start, I didn't care about the protagonist Bayek, his wife Aya, or even his quest to avenge his son's death. This is in part because the game picks up a year after he already set out to destroy the Order, giving it a bit of a non-linear quality. I got more out of the side-quests and historical setting. A lot of effort went into making the characters you come across in both the main plot and the mini side-stories scattered across the world feel real and memorable. The best part of the narrative though is definitely the origin story of the Creed. Seeing how all of these different things we've come to associate with the series over the years came to be is a lot of fun.

    On the gameplay side of things the biggest change that can be found is the combat system. No longer are fights a dance of well-timed parries and counters. Instead we get something much more free-flowing with a mix of light and heavy attacks not unlike a SoulsBorne game. A wide variety of weapon types allow you to experiment with different playstyles and find one that best suits you. This is true of ranged combat as well. The new bow and arrows are probably my favorite addition to the series. Being able to put some distance between you and your foes can be life-saving. Pulling off headshots never gets old. Especially when you dive further into the skill trees and get crazy new abilities like the power to control arrows mid-flight.

    Origins is a massive game that's filled with things to do. Admittedly you're just completing the same handful of tasks over and over again, but the action manages to stay fresh due to how diverse the environments are. Each section of the map is unique. Affectinf things like enemy patrol patterns and the kind of terrain you'll maneuver through. Entering a new zone for the first time and getting caught up in it's beauty and how different it was from everywhere else I had previously explored was enough to keep me going until I got that platinum trophy.

    The new modern day segments return to a format similar to that of when Desmond was still around. They introduce a new protagonist for this side of things, but man is she annoying. Like Rebecca and Shaun levels of bad. Not much happens in the few brief excursions outside of the Animus, but it's nice to see signs of Ubisoft potentially doing something significant with this part of the series again.

    Origins marks the first real evolution for Assassin's Creed since introducing multiplayer back in 2012. With a better story and more variety across the board the next entry could be talked about as one of the best RPGs of all time. Some excellent groundwork has been laid here, making the franchise feel fresher than it has in years.    … Expand

Combat system is improved (not really good but better than before) and world is really beautiful! That's all game have to offer. Too many "inspect elements" and "follow somebody" side missions. They removed game completion stats out from game and requirement for platinum is completing all locations which is more than 400 of them?!?!? It end up with endless scrolling through map searching for missing question mark.… 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]
