    1 ano sem AC fez bem a franquia, o jogo ta bem mais trabalhado tanto no gameplay quanto na otimização, a historia e as missões secundarias te motivam a finaliza-las. Bayek certamente é mais carismático do que alguns protagonistas do jogos anteriores.

    Es Bastante Mediocre Sin Originalidad Y Una Historia Bastante Mala que no evoluciona y no hablo de las versiones de ps4 y xbox one con caídas de frame que dañan la jugabilidad.

    I'm not really a assassins creed fan, and have't played since "black flag". It's a lot of improvements since then, and I like it a lot. The reason I rate this 6, is because of the microtransactions in a full price single player games. Yes, you can buy ability points. If you don't care about the microtransactions it's a solid 9/10.

In other words, after Syndicate this is some fresh air! The graphics are gorgeous and the mechanics are extremely fluid. I have noticed that this AC is actually a littler harder than those in the past in terms of combat. No longer are groups of 4 enemies standing back and waiting to hit you one by one but are instead striking at different moments. The story is strong and so are the characters. All in all I can tell I will be putting quite a few hours into this game. Welcome back Assassins Creed, we have missed you.… Expand

    What can I say ? This is by far one of the best games this year and definitely my favorite Assassins Creed game! You will love it! I’ve never had so much fun roaming through Egypt as Bayek, the last medjay. Albeit a serious man, he is charismatic and entertaining through the whole story

    Let's get the good out of the way. It looks beautiful and plays well. It's fun. Now for the bad. The story is terrible, the characters lack any depth, and are terribly inconsistent. The tone and pacing is just so bad. The voice acting is good for the most part but they aren't good enough to save the dialogue.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As much I am enjoying this game, there's a massive elephant in the room which has a big effect if you're a person like me who likes a good storyline: the storyline is just very weak and that's not the only problem with the story.

    Not only is the story weak, but, as someone who's played every AC title to date, it completely takes a big steaming dump on the lore, and here's how:

    1) Why does Bayek have a hidden blade when in the lore of the story Darius in the 5th Century was the first user of the hidden blade? It makes no sense.

    2) Why is Amunet renamed as Aya?

    3) No mention of Brutus, Marcus Antonius or Leonius?

    4) It's made very clear in Assassin's Creed 2 and Brotherhood that the Assassin's existed before Origins, and it's also hinted that it started with Adam and Eve... where did this go?

    Other problems with the story:

    1) Layla Hassan... I won't point it out, but it makes no sense.

    2) Certain missing individuals.

    Don't get me wrong, it's a brilliant game to play, but the poor storyline is just so off-putting that I just can't enjoy it, it makes no sense.    … Expand

    I expected to get an hour of playtime upon it's Steam launch yesterday, but I ended up playing this game for 11 hours straight, and now while teaching my students in the classroom, all I can think about is this game. It's so stellar that I am shirking my teacher-duties writing this review. Here is the gist:
    PROS:
    (1) Way better story-telling than before
    (2) Great setting , unique from other games of the genre
    (3) Very cool characters and a plot full of intrigue
    (4) Combat is actually challenging at points, fast-paced and satisfying
    (5) New gameplay mechanics, like eagle vision, make your actions feel organic

    CONS:
    (1) Numerous glitches
    (2) Some predictable points in the story-line
    (3) AI is smarter than before, but still kinda dumb

    All in all, it actually revived my love for open world games; perhaps this whole year did, with Zero Dawn, Shadow of War (despite the micro-transactions), Legend of Zelda: BotW, and even ME:A (after that atrocity of a game was **** patched).    … Expand

    beautiful world, engaging combat, and rich story! That extra year really payed off, the game is really well polished, no crashes, Egypt looks amazing, combat is dark souls on easy mode(which is great fun!) and the story was pretty decent. I hope this isn't a one time deal with ubisoft and that all future AC games are well made like this one.

    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. The RPG elements encourage challenges of their own, and even despite a handful of bugs, I desperately wanted to keep playing

    Played 7 hours so far and it's such a beautiful and amazing game. The sheer scope of the world leaves you breathless at the start, and after a couple of main missions you become invested in Bayek and care about his journey. Real world out of animus stuff I'm not a fan of but nice to see it isn't as dull as Black Flag where you had to wander around for ages. Can't wait to play this more.

This game is like a fresh wind in the series, one year break really helped here. There are a lot of changes compared to the sequels. So far, now I have about 5 hours behind and I’m enjoying this like no other similar game this year, especially when I compare this game with recently released Shadow of War, which was imho quite big disappointment. The graphics are amazing (PS4 Pro), gameplay is smooth and immersive, combat feels like "souls games" - of course a bit simplified. The story is classical revenge motivated cliche, but in games like this it really does not matter. Also loot system is very satisfying and motivating. There is only one thing I could criticize - framedrops in prologue. Overall I must recommend this game to any player, who likes action adventures. This are my first feelings after about 5 hours, so it’s of course possible to change opinion and score after few dozens more.… Expand

    Was worth waiting for this game. I’ve played all Assassin’s Creed games since the first one. And for me Origins took the crown of Assassin’s Creed 2, as the best AC game. Not a perfect game but Ubi is in the correct way. It has a nice combat system, great graphics, good story and great mechanics/rpg elements.

    +Все задания уникальны!
    +Видно, что много идей взято, например, из "The Witcher 3". Т.е. не прямо взято, а вдохновлено им, что не может не радовать!

    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.
