    For fans of an open world RPG this one is on steroids. The main reason I bought this title was the video the devs had on the PS store explaining the game, what you got with it, what you get with season pass, and a roadmap. Very welcoming to see that, hope other studios take notice. Game is amazing. It is as deep as it is wide.

    Lame story, feels like the quests are just there to be there, I can't feel the motivation of the characters, the characters themselves are mediocre, nothing special. Gameplay is good, except for the fact that you can't stick to the main story because you need to be a certain level, which you can reach only via pointless side quests. The graphics and the world are good.

I didn’t realise the game had the dreaded micro-transactions when I purchased it but so far I haven’t felt the need to buy any. Yes, it’s a slog but exploring ancient Egypt is great so spending extra money to upgrade doesn’t seem necessary to me and haven’t felt the need to do so. If you have enjoyed any of the Assassins Creed games of the past I think you will enjoy this one. Check it out!

    +. A very good trip across the ancient egypt
    + The open world is really huge
    + Waouh the hdr
    + The combats are improved
    + The eagle, the nature

    - The framerate is not very good, 25/28fps on PS4 Pro
    - The quests are repetitive and not very interesting
    - The load of textures are pretty bad
    - The textures of rocks and mountains are pretty ugly
    - Induced to kill innocent animals

    This Assasins creed is much better than Sindycate and Unity but is worst than the Ezio trilogy. If you want to have a gret time with a game, get this game out and try with other open world games: Horizon, Breath of the wild, Odissey

They managed to make it fun and challenging instead of making you a demi-god from it`s first few minutes. I love how they went back into ancient times as it is here where the series truly shines with their weapons, scenery and allowing the developers to run wild with their imagination. The main character Bayek is the most realistic AC character in the series. Yeah he might not be the playboy bunny like Ecio ,but he is neither the dull justice addicted Konnor Hathaway. Bayek is just a caring husband with his few moments and that is honestly enough for him to drive the narrative. So is the game truly a 10/10? No. But many reviewers below me complete the game on platinum with +100 hours and still rate it a 2/10 which is ridiculous. Of course it has it`s problems like the side quests that are just mindless grind without any sense of importance ,but it gets an A for effort to put a fresh taste into a dying series. I recommend this game to veterans and newcomers alike even on full price. Now only if they could delete those loot boxes... Expand

    This game is really fun to play. Im like 40 hours into the game and there is a lot of stuff to do and to see. It's a lot bigger then Origins and after 40h im still having fun (like half way in now). Im not giving it a 10 since sometimes its a repetive game... welking from one point to the other. But because there are alot of options i don't only feel like that.

    You have probably played Division or Destiny in the past and you like to get those purple blue and yellow weapon loots, this game has stuff to loot like shield, swords, bows, spears etc. Great stuff.

    Be prepared of getting lost since there is no minimap to guide you, only a small compass on the top center of your tv screen..

    You should concider playing this game on weekends or whenever you got enough spare time to be a couch potato, this game is a huge time sink if you get too immersed. Forget about the alarm clock.

    What i would like to point out though is that the game seem to have some framerate issues at times and another thing you should also like to know is that if you are having issues starting up the game and you get black screen upon startup and crash to a destop, then try disabling fxaa on the nvidia setting on your computer or if you have some other card like amd just try to disable the fxaa feature on your card and let the game do it instead, it might help or it might not.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are many wonderful things about this game, and as a software developer myself, I am in awe of a team that can make such a large complex software project work so well. It's a spectacularly good effort. Having said that though, I feel the design of the game as a game lacks quite a lot, and decreased my enjoyment. In this review I will go into some detail about the parts that I enjoyed and those that I did not.

    I have never played any Assassin's Creed game before, so I didn't bring many preconceived ideas. I did expect there would be skulking in shadows and assassination. I also admit that I am not a skilful gamer, but I expect that most games are within my range of capabilities. When I played Horizon: Zero Dawn, I chose an easy mode, and then the game was so easy as to be boring, so I played Origins on Normal (with exceptions as will be noted below).

    First, the positives. The world is beautiful! I completely love the way the Origins team has taken what is known about Ancient Egypt and reconstructed it and painted in nice colours. It's just wonderful. I love that there are so many different human models, and so many different actions they do, and so many different environments they interact with.

    The quests are generally good. As I find main quests in games to be the worst, I prefer to do side quests. However the side quests were strongly related to the main quest, and tended to expand on the story, rather than being some random radiant nonsense. I feel the side quests did a great job of explaining what was happening in the world to the people who weren't the famous people. I also loved the scroll puzzles, and sorta like the revenge quests even though they were a bit out of place.

    I loved the transport! In most games with horses, the horses are just too hard to control to bother with (looking at you, Breath of the Wild) so I either run places or fast travel. In Origins I regularly summoned my camel, or stole a felucca, or used whatever was at hand. The vehicles were a success.

    I loved the birds! I loved how when you walk into a flock of herons, they flew away, and you could count on them doing it for other humans as well. I would very much like to see a stealth game which placed more emphasis on interactions with the world - skittish animals, creaking stairs, visible shadows, audible grunts - rather than just "push the stealthy button".

    Which brings me to the bits I didn't like. The stealthy button didn't work most of the time! So many times I would poke my head into somewhere to have a look at what was happening, and be instantly noticed and end up in a melee. I adjusted from taking stealth-based abilities to taking melee ones just so I could keep up. Being stealthy didn't seem to be a viable option.

    Furthermore, Bayek's parkour didn't help. The guy can't walk in a straight line, he's forever leaping up on something. He can't use a ladder to save himself, preferring to jump up onto a wall or a box, and he can't go down. I spent a good proportion of my time just trying to get Bayek go where I wanted him instead of somewhere stupid. It's really hard to sneak around fort when any intrusion messes with your movement.

    The combat was okayish, but the lock-on functionality was way too eager to unlock itself. When you're badly wounded and staggering, unable to hit anyone, and Bayek insists on standing in a brazier rather than fighting or escaping, the game really is at its worst. And then while you're pressing all the buttons, the game decides you want to take a photo. NO! World's stupidest feature!

    Much has been said about the game's level system, which was about the worst level system I've ever played. For an open world game, there's a too narrow window of things to do that are viable and interesting at your level.

    Picking up loot doesn't work very well. There is click loot and hold loot, and you have to watch to see which the game is currently offering you. Very annoying. Then what you picked up vanishes so quickly you probably missed it anyway. Which is OK, because nothing you pick up is of much interest. The weapons are the most interesting, and they're so strongly tied to the level system that they're never of much interest.

    And finally, the main quest. Like HZD and BotW and even Skyrim, the game loves its main quest and throws all of its tricks at you while you do it, by which I mean painful boss fights and dull cut scenes. Those are why I avoid the main quests. I like Investigation areas and Eradication areas, I don't need a fight I can't win to make the game interesting. Act IV of Origins was painfully dull, and I tried to avoid it.

    It distresses me that game designers can make lovely and interesting things that I will do for hours, yet make the meaningful parts of their story so dull that I wander off to the kitchen instead. Origins may be a new direction for the AC franchise, but I wish in that regard they had chosen to lead rather than follow.

This depiction of ancient Egypt and Greece is absolutely astounding and breathtaking to the max. The way you can just run across the desert for such a long time, ending up at the Pyramids of Giza or Alexandria or Memphis, it just blew my mind. Each area having its own distinct looks, people, economy, and politics. This truly feels like a genuine recreation of those times and places. The story and characters are wonderful as well, keeping my interest until the end.
    The game is slightly brought down by some awkward glitches and mechanics here and there, as well as the overabundance of side quests and unlockables which feels very overwhelming at times.
    In the end though, this is probably the best game in the Assassin's Creed franchise, with so much beautiful stuff to see and do, and so much detail that it hurts. History nerds (such as myself) will also find so much to enjoy.

    But, graphics are not enough to make a game great. The story has some intriguing elements but I found myself skipping cutscenes and Aya in particular I found to be an annoying character with her obstinate obedience but that may be my subjectivity.

    The gameplay and missions are where it gets interesting. They have attempted to move away from mechanics found in earlier AC games but it's like the mechanics are holding on by their fingertips. As a game about assassins, it should not be surprising that most missions seem to involve travelling to a location and assassinating a target, but this does not impede the onset of boredom. Furthermore, the level cap of 40 deterred me from doing any more missions than I had to. I see they raised this cap with DLC, but I really don't like paying for that kind of thing since I'm already tired of the game itself.

    Despite an attempt at rejuvenating the series, AC: Origins still relies on familiar concepts and mechanics such as collecting items and open-worlds full of inane side quests as well as crafting and looting. It was the locations that probably intrigued me most and the impressive visuals made me want to continue exploring. I did get over 40 hours out of the game, so it's well worth it if you can get a good price; just don't expect to be blown away.

    Like its sub title ORIGNIS, Assassin's Creed made a huge change in this title and starts a new era for the whole franchise. Changing is always good but one thing I really hate is that the RPG mechanise made EXP becoming everything in this game. If your enemy's level is higher than yours, you probably cannot assassin him. So sad.

Ambientado en el antiguo Egipto y alrededores, nos convertimos en Bayek, uno de los pocos protagonistas dignos de la saga junto a Ezio, en mi opinión, con verdadera madera de héroe y líder.

    El sistema de parkour ha sido mejorado respecto a entregas anteriores y el de combate ha sido renovado completamente con un estilo mucho más parecido a la saga Souls (hasta este punto ha influenciado). A nivel técnico encontramos lo mismo de siempre: gráficos potentes, animaciones muy cuidadas y entornos muy detallados. La historia no es nada del otro mundo tampoco, pero tiene sus momentos destacables.

    No es ninguna obra maestra, pero comparado a lo que nos había mal acostumbrado Ubisoft durante casi un lustro, esto es un soplo de aire fresco.

    Recomendado.

    Игра не без недочётов, но сделана качественно и всего очень много. Графика хорошая, а работа художников просто прекрасна! Боевая система только плохая - очень коряво исполнена и под конец игры уже просто переключаешь на лёгкую сложность и стараешься пробежать мимо врагов:(

    В общей сложности на дополнения сезонного пропуска потратил 41 час, а на саму игру 71 час - итого 118 часов! Конечно в Фаллаут 4 времени было проведено больше, но это тоже достойный результат для игры в открытом мире!
    Выбил все достижения, кроме ипподрома в Ubisoft Club - это ад просто!
    Отдельно хотел бы выделить интерактивный тур по Египту, который надо было в составе самой игры добавлять, потому что из игры зачем-то убрали все исторические справки как это было в прошлых частях, когда можно было почитать информацию о исторических местах и личностях, а в этой части этого нет, и если в школе спал на уроках истории, то не получится уловить всего шарма данного исторического периода. В связи с чем настоятельно рекомендую пройти все интерактивные туры и тогда вы узнаете много интересного о древнем Египте и о известных личностях, значительно повлиявших на развитие цивилизации!
    И кто после этого будет утверждать, что видеоигры не несут никакой пользы… ну, как минимум, знания истории подтянуть можно легко - я, например, узнал много нового о строительстве пирамид, о династиях правителей, о изобретениях, о медицине, о мумификации, о национальных праздниках, о религии, да много чего нового - крайне рекомендую!

    Игра является очень хорошей гриндилкой, без претензий на игру года и мировой шедевр, как и все игры от Юбисофт, в которые мы играем в ожидании нормальных игр от Naughty Dog, Rockstar, CD Project Red и т.д., так что думаю в этот раз 7 из 10 будет более чем приемлемой оценкой, учитывая аж двухгодичный период отсутствия игр серии на рынке и полное переосмысление! Если Одиссея точно такая де и опять конвейер включили, то ей уже поставлю 5 или 6, но тут всё же инноваций хватает для лояльной оценки:)

    I played this game after Odyssey. Some folks claim the combat here is better, it is not. It is atrocious! The story was not very engaging and the pyramids were barely even used. Far too boring to go for all the trophies. King tut is unbeatable, even on easy.

    English is not my native language, I do apologize in advance for any mistakes and errors.

    My god, this game is badly written/directed!

    At first, around 30h into the game, I was pretty happy with the game, world building, graphics, etc. At that time, for me, the game was a solid 8/10. I was so wrong.

    Everything in this game happens so fast, so randomly. Before you even meet a character, that character is already dead/dying, or betraying you (which is incredibly predictable).
    For example, you watch some gruesome death of some child.... the kid you met 5 minutes earlier. The game lets you 'lightly' know that now is the time for sadness (slow-mo, sad music, crying mother). Sometimes the loading time of the game is longer than the exposition of characters.

    You feel zero attachment, zero emotion. That one scene, quest, reminded me of the prologue to The Last of Us. All it took was a few minutes of good acting, brief exposition and a subtle backstory, to make you feel something, to feel the suffering of a parent who just lost a child. There is not even one such moment in Assassins' Creed Origins. Wasted potential.

    For most of the game, I felt zero attachment to any of the characters.
    In some places, Bayek had quite interesting tantrums, expressing some emotions.

    Unfortunately, after 100+ hours, I can't recall even one interesting character.
    Side quests could have been non-existent, boring, repetitive. Horrifyingly badly acted.
    A character outside the Animus... for most of the time, I didn't even remember that she existed at all. The entire story line could have ceased to exist, and it wouldn't have changed anything in Bayek's world.

    This game is a drag. By the end, instead of being interested in how it would end, I was bored and waiting for it to finally end.

    The last game in the Assassins' Creed series that I played was Unity. Pretty cool, visually gorgeous, realistic characters and their stories. Here I was dying of boredom and annoyance.

    Every now and then, when a new game in the series comes out, I think to myself that maybe it's worth a try, maybe it will be OK this time...?
    This is definitely the last game in the Assassins' Creed series that I will ever play. Unfortunately, the series died along with Ezio, as did my interest in the Creed.

    No sé bien por donde arrancar así que empiezo por las mecánicas de juego, son muy buenas, la forma en que vas mejorando a tu personaje y a las armas está muy muy bueno.
    El mapa es enorme con un montón de cosas para hacer que lamentablemente se repiten en muchas ocasiones, inclusive las casas son las mismas.
    El juego esta lleno de misiones secundarias y terciarias, que no aportan nada a la historia y solo sirven para subir de nivel, fundamental saltarse las cinemáticas porque solo son una perdida de tiempo.
    La historia es fácilmente olvidable, es solo correcta y hasta un poco aburrida.
    La música del juego esta buena pero es súper repetitiva, ya cansa después de las 4 5 horas de juego.
    Las cinemáticas y la captura de movimiento está ok, no puedo pedirle mucho a Ubisoft pero algo que me molesta muchísimo que increíblemente se mantiene hasta el más reciente Assassin's Creed Valhalla es que el personaje corre con el cuerpo tirado para adelante, corre agachado y me molesta mucho.
    Tuve muchísimos problemas con el minimapa y el HUB, ya que los iconos son dorados y grises y son los principales colores del minimapa, me cuesta mucho verlos y no hay forma de cambiarles el color.
    Conclusión, no lo recomiendo, es un juego super repetitivo que a la larga cansa y aburre muchísimo, buscaría otras opciones dentro del género que son mucho más interesantes.

    (Story)
    The story is decent and common, we know this kind of stuff from the movies and even in the books
    (Slow rendering/loading)
    There are some times that it might take a while to load/render, especially when you're with Senu and you will go back to play with Bayek, it took like 5 or 10 seconds I guess to play back with him and the loading times are just so slow. A lot of loading times also which can lead to a boring moment because you are stuck there waiting and some of the graphics are also taking time to load
    (NPC)
    NPC are dumb, not really, but some AI of the NPC are not just really that good
    (Horse auto-pilot)
    We know those feature where can hold the button to auto-pilot the horse, within that, it's also bad, it will lead to smashing other NPC's and animals, and also, those NPC's and animals, are also not that good AI's, they won't dodge or move out of the way, they wait if the horse will try to ram them and within that, that's the time they will move out of the way
    (Audio)
    NPC's voice line audio is very bad, even if I am not near at the talking NPC, the thing is, it is still loud and I know that they have this weird reverb on them and it's very bad audio

    I do not like the RPG-styled gameplay that ubisoft added to the game. You will spend a lot of time searching for clues and items in missions and the stealth-missions is very hard because Bayek is very bad at using stealth. The story is pretty important because it is Bayek who formed the assassin brotherhood even though he is very bad at being an assassin.
    And the thing i hate the most

    It's a great setting, but it's a bad AC game, it lost it's identity. I didn't love what thode games were before, but it's sad to see it become so uninspired, even if it is functional, and fun for a while. It gets old fast though, and although it's one of the best AC games, it's the nail in the AC coffin. It's fine in just about everything, the setting is good though.

    It feels like ubisoft decided to abandon what Assassins Creed is, and make an RPG Witcher clone and call it assassins creed. Controls and combat completely changed (not for the better), grindy rpg-like foot-mounted combat with no counter-attack, and horse-mounted combat, a complete de-emphasis on stealth, no more sprint. Assassinate button doesn't always assassinate.
    And new quest system with the need to hunt out quests, 183 quests, all repetitive, shallow and boring. Escort and carry, rinse and repeat.
    And then parts feel like farcry with its controllable eagle which can tag enemies (right out of Primal), and ability to hunt wild animals, free them to attack enemies or tame them. As are the new swimming and diving mechanics.
    Quests are unbelievably repetitive and boring. Just dull, uninspired, and arbitrary, the narrative is just stretched so thinly. Ubisoft has completely ditched any fun or humor from the series.
    And the most rpg-like part, leveling up. So much leveling up. Far too much. Much more than Syndicate, and Syndicate had too much already. Instead of 10 levels, now fifty. So much griding.
    From hundreds of weapons to enemies levels (which syndicate started). Why so many? why not just a few of each weapon and upgrade them? You already have the ability to upgrade the weapons so why have hundreds of weapons? There's no point other than wanting people to spend money on buying them all. All these levels also means the option to 'assassinate' doesn't actually assassinate. When you sneak up to an enemy and see the assassinate option, if they're higher level than you, it doesn't assassinate and just takes a chunk of their health. This means they detect you, stand right back up and you have to grind away slashing them.

    Honestly, at this point they should rename the series.

    I was instantly very sad that eagle vision has changed from a togglable mode to Animus Pulses. And the new button layout means you cannot walk and use eagle eye at the same time. So you basically have to keep spamming eagle eye and you run around now. Which means both hands on the left half of the controller. They could've at least kept eagle eye on L3/R3.

    The UI design is horrible. White and yellow on a light background. I don't have color blindness and I was constantly struggling. I feel very sorry for people that struggle differentiating colors. Map indicators are just tiny. No more minimap. The subtitles were unreadable until I discovered that thankfully subtitles can have a background in the options, otherwise they'd be impossible to read.

    The game is pretty unstable, even years after release. It crashed within first 15 minutes of playing which wasn't a good sign. Crashed many times throughout the game.
    One time I got a bug where the camera would not stop locking to a fixed point across the map. I eventually, i got there and the camera would still just keep locking directly beneath me. I tried to do quests and travel the entire map to get rid of it, even fast travel wouldn't fix. I had to commit suicide to fix.

    You can manipulate time, ironic as ac started as a prince of persia game, however, time-shifting seems incredibly pointless.

    You control two characters (straight out of syndicate), but this isn't explained to you. Spent hours leveling up Bayek only to find I had to do the final levels as another character that isn't leveled up. ridiculous.

    The positives:
    Far more cinematic than Syndicate.
    Music so much better than Syndicate
    The setting and atmosphere are great and the world design beautiful.

    The most interesting part of game was when I stopped doing quests and started roaming around deserts, getting caught in sandstorms, starting to hallucinate, activating the ancient mechanisms, which were very reminiscent of classic assassins creed vaults, but ultimately felt meaningless.
    Also sometimes going back to the present day. Layla is a more interesting protagonist and ability to explore outside animus. But sadly there doesn't seem to be any mystery available there. Her story is incredibly shallow and anti-climactic.

    Just so boring, I had to stop playing for a week at a time because the gameplay and quests were just so monotonous. The world was gorgeous, I just wish the game within the world was decent.

    After playing Assassin's Creed since the original, I don't think I'll be buying an assassins creed game again.

The music does a good job to immerse you in each situation except when you are taking down a fort.
    Now on to the bad things.... The stealth and combat is THE worst in any game i have played in this series. And i can not understand why people praise it! I usually run away from combat because its so damn boring to play. The missions are tedious and uninteresting, the story doesn't really tell you much of the "origins " of the creed until much, much, much later.
    Overall this is a disappointing for me as a Assassins creed fan. And i hope they get back to the old stealth and cool fighting moves like the old games. Unfortunately the upcoming game Odyssey has the same faults it does not look like a assassins creed game at all.
    I would say wait for a sale before getting this since its still worth getting if you are a fan.

    +++ New fighting system looks fresh and some active skills from skill tree really refresh it in the course of the game.
    +++ The world is huge and it gives you that sense of adventure, journey through the desert from one point to another.
    +++ Two or three emotional moments in the story cinematics.
    Minuses.
    --- You journey through this big world but encounter no new enemies, no new animals. Forts you capture get bigger in size and amount of enemies, but pose no new challenges.
    --- You quickly understand tactics of finding chests, infiltrating forts and fighting enemies and this tactics does not change the whole game. As i said, no new enemies, no new threats, challenges doom you to doing all the process in repetitive way.
    --- There is no visual change in the world from your actions, starting from no visual change in settlement where you killed a tyrant that sucked all resourses and instilled fear in the city and following forts that you capture killing all the soldiers and sometimes even helping rebels to capture it once again packed with Roman soldeirs and rebels in cages next time you drive by it. There is not a single region that you can free from oppression. You kill hundreds and they still roam the streets (much like Far Cry 5).
    --- The highest difficulty still mostly relies on level comparison instead of actual difficulty.

    Despite all the things I did not like in the game at this point I am still ready to say it is a good game if it wasn't for one crucial thing that I realized suddenly at the end of the campaign: there is next to none interesting story missions, close to the end there is an action packed war mission, but apart from it I can't remember a single quest. You either retrieve prisoner from the cage in the camp or crouch in a secured location and assassinate target. And there are no special target conditions, you just hide in the bushes, or grab the ledge and jump down on the enemy. That is it. I am afraid that I don't have time or desire to play games like this one anymore. It is not that I like story-centered games or don't like aesthetics, I just like varied games, games where there's some meaning to upgrading your equipment, exploration etc.

    The combat potential has so many things you can do. In terms of stealth, brawling, luring enemies, traps, fires, etc. Unfortunately, most of it is never made use of. That being said, the previous track record of trying to make use of them was not very fun and felt like using my brain too much compared to any other point in the game where I can turn it off and mindlessly check off completion boxes.

    The story has a couple good parts but the majority is forgettable with characters I still cannot tell who is who. The side quests are somewhat interesting, but generally not so much,. The main character Bayek is someone I felt I grew to understand, whereas I grew apart from Aya, the second PC character. In the end I felt she stole the spotlight from the character I put 60 hours into. Even if her character was more fleshed out and written I don't think that would improve anything since in general she seems to be a bland archetype who keeps playing missions I don't enjoy.
    Then there's the RL story in the game which doesn't make sense. You're about to be killed so you equivocally lay down and sleep and wait for it. What kind of lame assassin does that. Cut to the end game and you are able to leave to somewhere else so what do you do? You just again... lay down and sleep. It doesn't make sense and it's disjointed.
    Those mechanisms in-game where you hear people talking about the future or time travel take eons to finish speaking. It's like their instructions were to speak as humanly possibly and they lock the character to the radius around the mechanism so you can't run away. It's so slow I managed to lose concentration on what they're even talking about.

    Then there's the combat and climbing. The general movement of the game suffers from a noticeable input lag. Causing for a lot of delayed responses. There are a lot of times where I will be standing around on a small step and not want to be. Sometimes I'll randomly jump off to the side when climbing and die. There's times where I will auto target the wrong enemy when attacking because it's based on enemy proximity and not where I'm trying to attack. There's many things that add up to an experience overall feels unclean.

    There are SO. MANY. moments in the game where it feels cringy to watch. Like the internet's anime memelord thought of some of the coolest moments from their favourite anime and decided that assassin's and the main character should be able to do some of these things for no reason or context other than it was cool in their favourite anime. Watching it made me think that the assassin's are lame.

    The entire game seems like a payoff for the last 3 minute cutscene and spoilers, but your character doesn't really matter. There's no sense of validation whatsoever. Kind of related but I feel like there were some major feminists on the writing and quest design teams.

    The one saving grace to this game is the open world. it's pretty incredible to look at. Too bad the game mechanics didn't match the attention to detail that the world was paid.

    One last point - the move to a more RPG focused game hurt more than helped. It was half-assed when compared to actual RPG's like The Witcher or Skyrim. Overall, very disappointed with the end product here.

    I hated most AC games but this one seemed to break the mould. Not only did it have one of the most compelling main characters I've ever played (that voice / mo-cap actor is worthy of an award) but the gameplay is fantastic and the setting is unreal. Ancient Egypt is fully realised in this incredible game.

    This is a strong 8.5 maybe at times 9/10 game.

    The game is overall pretty good, except for the fact that it is a grind fest! Plot is short and is only artificially lengthened by the grind that is this game. It trys to be like Witcher 3 and fails horrendously. Never buy a Ubisoft game ever, is what I learned from playing this

    While it is an odd take on the creed franchise, ACO is ultimately an exceptionally well made action RPG hybrid genre. The graphics, gameplay and story are noticeably superior to 2018's ps4 version of AC odyssey (and cheaper to buy!).

Egipt in the times of Cleopatra is one of the best-presented places and times in series history. Full of details and climate, vast and beautiful. A big plus is also how a story is presented. Cut-scenes are very well directed (major improvement here) and stories of our targets are memorable. The beginning of the Brotherhood is very well told as well. First Bayek's assassination with the hidden blade has given me goosebumps. AC: Origins has also many improvements when it comes to gameplay mechanics. Combat can be demanding and dynamic and I really like how the characters movement has been redesigned. However, there is still something missing that stops me from giving this game 9/10. Side missions lack emotion and, especially at the end, they feel like a fetch-quests. There are also flaws in equip system which feels a little too simple (I am talking to you no-stat outfits and horses). To put it all together - I had a fun time playing this game and it is one of the best entries in the series, but I still liked Horizon: Zero Dawn and Witcher 3 more. Expand

    It's fun for a while! Exploring! Sneaking! Sniping. But then it's not. Revenge is just not that interesting when you're not made familiar with what the protagonist is avenging.

    Is not a bad game but is far from the good old days from this franchise. Ubisoft created a really nice open world but is almost empty. The controls are at least more responsive than previous games but the combat feels too automatic.
    The Story is not very good, and the last third of the campaign switches so many times of villains that
    hurts the main story. Dont you even dare to compare

    So i decided to pick it up in a sale before some days and i got to say that it was an EPIC JOURNEY!

    PROS:

    -First of all, the Graphics!
    In youtube videos you cannot understand the quality of this game but when i tried it i didn't expect such beauty!
    -Even if you are not a fan of Egypt like me you will find much more than that in this game!
    It has Greek,Roman historic places and people.
    -The Soundtrack
    Gives you those EZIO good vibes in some songs.
    - The Story
    Really well plot and finally less gameplay in modern age!
    - Much more character Customization with more weapons!
    - Combat System
    You may find it a little weird in the beginning but it is going in the right direction.
    Most ppl say the combat system is a Dark Souls clone but NO IT IS NOT.
    They really achieved the RPG system that this game was in need of...
    - Challenging and to pass the missions you have a required level now
    Grinding is really fun and not boring since sidequests have a nice storyline with Videos and give you plenty of XP
    - There is no need of Microntransactions to finish the game and level up the character.

    CONS:
    -First of all the PERFORMANCE...
    It reminds me of the awful launch of AC Unity when everyone had stuttering problems, at least this one is playable..
    The game STILL suffers from stuttering problems even if you meet easily the Sys Requirements...
    -Plenty of bugs and crashes to desktop that needs fixing

    If your system is able to handle this game, you should really not miss it.
    You will spend plenty of hours since the map is huge and the quests are so many!

    The big new fighting system is mostly a failure, better than the old ones, but just horrible. My thoughts playing this were always that the main focus of the devs were the animations looking cool and not the fighting actually being fun. Or even working properly. Most of the time you're not fighting the enemy but rather the camera.
    The RPG mechanic is barely noticable, it mainly influences which missions you can and can't do so it does sort of guide you through the side missions and regions. THere's nothings really interesting in the equipment mechanics, just always switch to the better one when you get it. Really no point to this even existing.
    This entire game shows that the Devs really shouldn't be trying anything new. This is just a half assed effort by an incompetent team that's more suited to putting out the same game every year than actually creating something. Ubisoft really has gone downhill.

Удивительно что Ubisoft получилось так атмосферно и красиво передать всё то что казалось передать невозможно. Восстановить все объекты которые даже сейчас сохранились (пирамиды на плато Гиза, Карнакский храм, храм Хатшепсут, Долину Царей) в 3D, да ещё и с возможностью зайти внутрь - это просто что-то с чем-то!
    Сюжет оказался не плохим, но и не шедевральным, присутствие исторических личностей как и всегда у Ubisoft на высоте.
    Единственное что немного портит картину - оптимизация... Даже если система соответствует требованиям заявленным разработчиками, не факт что игра будет нормально работать! Именно из-за оптимизации оценка - 8... НО всё-же не скрою, именно эта часть серии вошла для меня лично в список лучших! Впечатлений она подарила огромное количество, а главное - ощущение, как-будто я лично перенесся на тысячелетия назад, и видел всё как в жизни!

    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.
