    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. None of your choices from the previous episodes change anything. You are still forced to follow the story arc that Ubi thought was such a great idea. So an RPG where your choices have absolutely no impact on anything? How exactly does that work.

    The story (at least early on) is also almost a mix of 2 different writers with different ideas having their stories crammed together. At the end of one cutscene early on a main character walks away, not happy but not mad either. In the next quest the cutscene indicates that neither you or they like each other at all anymore and would almost rather the other was dead. What? This is almost totally against the start of this entire episode where everybody was best buddies. Again, absolutely no choice in anything. It's like watching a movie where you periodically get to navigate yourself to the next scene.

    Some of the worst DLC Creed has ever had.    … Expand

    3 part of Legacy of the First Blade the weakest, boring and monotonous. Resembles a creative imptention than end of history more. The history is fabricated. All sense of addition - to see an ending which connects Odyssey and Origins.

    Absolutely amazing dlc for those, who loved original game and who wants to learn more about the assassin's creed lore. Gives some of new abilities and after completing the game you get traditional assassin's set of armour. The story is very emotional and will make you drop a tear a couple of times. The ending is very awesome.

    Assassin’s Creed Odyssey: Story Arc 1 - Legacy of the First Blade: Episode 3 is a great finale to this story in the game. It really ties everything up nicely and connects to other games in the series. The villain is really interesting, and the consequences of choices made are felt deeply in this episode. This is a great send off to the Legacy of the First Blade story arc.

    Just ignore CoolDadTX and all of the people who complain about that stuff. This is an AC game, not some game in a fluid universe. I doubt this user has any knowledge of the AC universe and simply views this as a dumbed down hack and slash RPG rather than the story-driven lore-heavy game that it is. After all, you play as someone with Isu blood.

    I played through the 3 episodes of this DLC at once so my point of view is for the whole experience. As often with DLCs, this is more of the same thing than the main game. But, I found myself surprised here with the storytelling and all the deepness it brings to the storyline and the character of Kassandra.

    This DLC is fine. Nothing extraordinary, but the story is nice to play through.

    It isn't perfect, but this episodic format isn't something I'd mind seeing return to Assassin's Creed in the future.

    The Assassin’s Creed Odyssey: Legacy of the First Blade grand finale cleanly ties up the story it started with answers and great moments for everyone involved.
