    Reviewing on the Xbox One X.

    Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is one of my favorite games of all time (and I've been playing for 40 years - A Link to the Past, Twilight Princess, MGSV: The Phantom Pain, Breath of the Wild, and now Odyssey). As a fan of this style of game, I'm really kind of speechless in how Ubisoft was able to produce something like this. Usually, with these kinds of games,    Reviewing on the Xbox One X.

    Assassin's Creed: Odyssey is one of my favorite games of all time (and I've been playing for 40 years - A Link to the Past, Twilight Princess, MGSV: The Phantom Pain, Breath of the Wild, and now Odyssey). As a fan of this style of game, I'm really kind of speechless in how Ubisoft was able to produce something like this. Usually, with these kinds of games, there's at least something that's not quite right - either the game starts off rough, or there's filler content, or the characters are bland or awful. There's always something. But Odyssey doesn't miss a single beat and I can't understand how Ubisoft was able to make something so engaging. At the moment I'm playing through with Kassandra, a total dream woman, so I guess the game got off on the right foot immediately with me. It's as if Ubisoft looked at everything that worked in Assassin's Creed: Origins, kept what worked, ditched what didn't, and then added ten tons of awesome. There's so much action and content in this game, I feel like I underpaid (I picked up the standard edition). On the Xbox One X, the game looks outstanding, controls like a dream, and I think it's the first title on the X that justifies the money I paid for it last year. The RPG dial has been turned up this time, Odysey has BioWare style RPG elements with dialogue choices and consequences for player actions - and they work amazing, it doesn't feel like they were just slapped in. I honestly don't know how much more I can say, it's a game that I'm not able to find anything to criticize (at least not yet. I've not played with Alexios). I can't stop playing. Ubisoft, I don't know how you did this, but stay the course and never change.    … Expand

    Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is breathtaking. I don’t think I have ever been so addicted to a game before. There is so much to do, and I was compelled to do all of it. Kassandra is a great character with a truly intriguing story to follow. Greece is a beautiful place to explore, full of life and many different environments. The game is just so much fun to play! I can’t stop playing it.

I'm glad This franchise went full RPG because though it may be as good as the witcher, it comes pretty damn close.

    Without doubt the best AC in the series. Even if it's very similar to Origins I can't understand the complaints. Many things feel like Origins but in better way and because of the trolls giving it zero I will contribute my point with a 10/10. Love the work and great job to all of you in the staff!

    Then there's combat, surprisingly fun and visceral. Controls are the opposite of the clunkyness of RDR2. They feel natural, aiming with a bow is awesome (and doesn't stop after 2 seconds...really Rockstar?)

    The Naval game is extremely fun and adds a lot to the game, as mercenaries and Cultists do.

    This game would be absolutely perfect had the writing been better. Way too many uninspired fetch quests tarnish the main campaign, which is, in itself, quite ok if not excellent, and create unnecessary feel of repetition.

    ABSOLUTELY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!    … Expand

    STORY: 2/2
    Four main storylines. Every location story has its own stuff going on. I was on an island where I helped a young child make some friends while also meddling in “The Bachelor: Greece Edition”.

    AUDIO: 2/2
    On a regular basis, around twice or more per hour, when you talk to an NPC, you or the character will interrupt each other mid-sentence and say lines on top of each other. It’s annoying. [...] But that's hardly a complaint.

    GAMEPLAY: 2/2
    There are many on the internet who say this game has become too action oriented. Sure, the formula has been changed, but it’s been heading this way for a while now. The fact is, you can still play this game stealthy if you want to.

    FUN: 2/2
    I am willing to forgive [the microtransaction for EXP & money] because it was on me to make that choice in the end. I could have bucked up and cleared out every single icon on the map to take the game nice and slow. But, be that as it may, I cannot stop playing this game.    … Expand

    By far my favorite entry in the series. Origins was a huge improvement in gameplay mechanics but Odyssey's inclusion of dialogue options and choice of gender makes it feel like a true RPG. If they continue down this path, every AC game will be a must play for me.

That game is awesome, I agree that its one of the best in the series, but for me its not better than Origins. The world and the characters are amazing, Sometimes I was having a problems with the animation, but there are bugs and glitches in every game. The story wasn't bad, the grinding system is a bit stupid, but I think Ubisoft will repair it. The armor and weaponary system is great, currently im with the Demigod set with The Wolf's Helmet. I think this game should be nominated for GOTY. Ubisoft did a great job with this game… Expand

The game play is quick, intuitive and full of action and excitement. I have been a long time Assassin's Creed fan and have played and completed them all except the side scrolling ones and Liberation (played but not completed). Having said that, this game is my favorite in the series. It is a upgraded version of Origins (which is amazing too!). I find myself continually being pulled back to this game and have played it every day with the exceptions of the holidays since launch. I currently am at 140 hours and still have not completed it. However I am going for the 100% so I completely clear areas when I do them.

    You can do this game in any order you want once you get a high enough level. The enemies level up with you and that is awesome as it makes all areas the same difficulty. So there are no low level one hit kill enemies (excluding Assassinations once you get your Assassination damage up). The side quests from the boards do get repetitive, but I enjoy them because you get a ton of XP and Drachme ($$) from them and they let you explore areas a little more. This is just part of Ubisofts games and I love it. The unique side quests (Gold “!”on map) are amazing and have their own little stories. Some of them are quite involved and have multiple endings based on your choices. There are even other side quests from random NPCs that are in the woods or other areas while you are just exploring. I also love the tombs where you find the stele and it gives you an ability point. This is a continuation from Origins and they are worth exploring. There are also the return of the history areas which are amazing to read about and find. It is worth going off of the beaten path and exploring.

    I have yet to get bored playing this game, and with 140 hours plus whatever it will be once I complete the game I don’t believe that I will be bored. This game also gets updates and new content for free and paid regularly. Since this game has launched there have been some awesome changes. Now you can change the look of your armor and the colors and they keep the same stats. You do not have to have the current item in your inventory to unlock the look either. Once you have looted it you have it unlocked. Also now the level cap is 75 and you get master abilities where you can put up to 20 points into each thing (Sword damage, damage dealt turns into healing, damage to animals, fire etc.) It is amazing!

    I got used to the voice actor for Alexios and I like it. He does sound kind of dumb but he is a big muscle ego hero character, and it fits him. I have not played as Kassandra so I cannot say that she is better or not.

    As a parent and a person that doesn't have as much time to play at once as I used to the way this game saves is also awesome. It saves right where you left off if you manual save. I mean exactly where you were standing. It helps when you have to stop and save and come back later. My 140 hours are broken up by 30 mins here 2 hours here etc. It helps that this game was made like this.

    I give this game a 10/10 because it is amazing, fun to play, the base content of this game is HUGE there is so much to do and with Ubisoft updating it regularly with new content it is even better then I thought. I have only beaten the tutorial of Red Dead Redemption 2 and played some online because this game is so interesting and fun to play and just full of action. It keeps pulling me back. If you read this whole review I hope you found it helpful and if you get the game I hope you enjoy it! I know Ill be playing more and more. Thank you!    … Expand

    The environment is breath taking in its beauty, verity and details. It is almost can it be better. For living world (peoples society and animals) also good, but they can do better in terms of living matters and graphics specially for human. I like how they balance between reality and fecticns in general world story and gameplay. For the open world item there are a lot to discover however the price is almost only a beautiful places like visiting a museum and some times tools. I wish they made more verity awards for the discovery like like special abilities, special tools. Gemplay combat:
    A new style in the series and I think it is well done and there is a space for improvement.

    Gameplay Stealth kill:
    Good and adding bow style is also nice, but I wish there are will action while preforming stealth kill like in Assassin's creed unity or middle earth shadow of mordor.

    Gameplay parkour :
    Good and I like how smooth his movement and climbing any thing easily (maybe a little pit more then required). I think better to be more challenging in doing this parkour and climbing. Also I wish they made better action moves while performing parkour such as Assassin's creed unity.

    The Five level story :
    Story acting and scenarios in general are good. However It needs more work. Storey for those who comes before covered well
    Current day story and abstergo a covered well. The main story of alexios/kassandra is good but it needs more work to be better.
    Historical references and events are covered well. Sub stories in the world of the game are good and some are average.

    Quests level system, and upgrading system:
    Quest is good some are repeated but it's OK because Gameplay is nice. Level system I think it's fine and never bother me. I didn't required to do side quest for just increasing my level. Upgrades some are good and some are not required and it can be better. In general as most of ubisoft games it's good game that it can be better and I think it deserves 85 rating.

This game is the perfect Assassin's Creed game out of Origins and Valhalla, it has everything you want, it's in the middle so it's very developed and not the first new AC game like origins and it didn't have great features removed and bad features added in like Valhalla.

    The lore and setting of Ancient Greece are fun and intriguing, offering plenty to be discovered and explored. The world is rather detailed and as another user put it, immersive, making it easy to get lost in the world of Ancient Greece. The map is large, the largest of any AC game so far I believe, but I don't view that as a problem personally. If you give me areas to explore, I'll explore them, simple as that.
    The RPG elements introduced in Origins have been improved on, providing an even more open world with more areas to explore and things to find. The visuals and voice acting are great, and the dialogue options are refreshing for the franchise, after many games of your character forming their thoughts and opinions entirely on their own. The romance options aren't something I delved too far into, though I'm glad I don't have to spend any longer watching my character woo a female prostitute to help them in their bidding. More choice is introduced than ever before, adding to your own immersion into the world.
    Both Alexios and Kassandra are engaging protagonists regardless of who you choose, though I personally preferred the latter. The main story is tragic and fun, and through the right choices, a happy ending is possible. Kassandra or Alexios will travel between the lands of Ancient Greece in the search for their family and who they really are, while dodging Mercenaries, hunting Cultists, and even participating in the Peloponnesian War as they do so. The main story is a bit long, though again, I don't see that as a problem. If the main story is too short, what's the point of the game?
    The game also offers many optional elements, such as participating in Conquest Battles, doing side quests, and purchasing DLCs. Both of the DLCs made for intriguing additions to the game, with the Fate of Atlantis DLC diving even deeper into the lore of Ancient Greece than the main story had itself.
    Some may complain about the "bloat" of the game. And while I agree that it is large, there is no one pressuring you to do every single side quest that pops up on the map. I don't know crap about game development, and even I know that more little quests will pop up eventually because it's part of an algorithm. There is plenty of content available to enjoy in AC Odyssey, and while every little side quest may not be its own great adventure, the game as a whole certainly is a hell of an Odyssey.
    It may be different from the earlier games, but in my opinion, the franchise needed some redirection. Odyssey was quick to become my top game of the franchise. 10/10    … Expand

    It is unquestionable now that the revision of the AC formula first presented to us in AC Origins has refreshed the gameplay and given Ubisoft a clearer direction of where this series should go next. When I first played Origins, I generally enjoyed the much needed changes to combat and character progression. However, I did feel like the game didn't really take advantage of those changes, as the way that the protagonist interacted with the world still seemed pretty basic to me.

    Odyssey, however is a whole other story.

    It takes Origins' gameplay and brings it to a new, lively world, where mercenaries want your head and you're caught in the fire of a bloody war between two powerful armies. Initially, you're only a misthios looking for wealth, but you soon come across a secret organization, who secretly dominate greek politics. A classic AC tale, which we have seen before, but the new cult hunting mechanic makes this chase much more personal. In some ways, I feel like this is what the developers of the first Assassin's Creed wanted their game to be.

    A good story, great RPG mechanics for you to find your play style, big world with interesting locations, gorgeus sights to behold and DLC content that feels like it could very well be an entirely new game. I'd definetely recommend this to lovers of the time period the game is set in and people who like action RPGs.

    I'm 150+ hours in, determined to get all the achievements and, while I do think that I have a well-grounded knowledge of the gameplay and missions structures, every new tweak in my skill set brings with it a new discovery about how I want to play this game.    … Expand

An element of choice and consequence has been incorporated into the narrative allowing players to influence the story with their decisions. It's not as deep as something you'd get from BioWare on this front when it comes to being able to constantly define your male or female character's personality or radically change where a quest will take you, but you're given the ability to impact key events in meaningful ways and put your own personal touch on the journey.

    This is a lot like Skyrim in that no matter where you go you'll always find something to do. The entire picture of what the main storyline is presenting is spread across three separate questlines, and that's in addition to the variety of side-stories and locations with their own checklist of objectives to complete that you'll encounter. There's a hierarchy of mercenaries you can climb through the ranks of, a secret web of cultists to uncover, and an entire ship with a crew to upgrade and collect resources for. There's a lot of flexibility in all of this too, like how you can stay on top of your gear either by upgrading your favorite pieces or ignore that option entirely in favor of just picking the next best choice out of the constant stream of newly acquired loot, and play in the immersive "Exploration mode" which removes waypoints forcing you to really pay attention to directions given by the NPCs. It's amazing how well all of these systems and really everything Odyssey does comes together. Everything except for the graphics that is...

    This is far from the prettiest game on the market. That's somewhat understandable given what a MASSIVE world with an increased amount of foliage compared to the deserts of Egypt it's rendering, but it's disappointing how I was never able to be blown away by these sprawling wildernesses due to it all looking like it was made out of clay. I do have some other, more minor complaints. Such as how the romance options are almost exclusively women, uncomfortably playing into that old stereotype of all gamers being either straight dudes or lesbians and severely limiting the choices for gay men and hetero females. The biggest though has got to be the modern day portion of the series. On top of still finding the new characters unlikable, I continue to have no idea what Ubisoft is even doing with it since they killed off Desmond in III and very little actually happens in this entry at all. It looks as though the Fate of Atlantis DLC provides some much needed direction going forward on this front, but given that I couldn't bring myself to make it through the free chapter of it they were nice enough to give away it remains an aspect of the brand they could abandon altogether and I wouldn't care.

    The ancient Greece segments which make up the vast majority of the experience however are fantastic. There might not be any mention of the assassin's or templars that along with the inclusion of mythological creatures has begun to make the overall AC lore kind of murky, yet I appreciate the route the property is taking from a gameplay perspective. So much content is here that even after 50+ hours of play there were still areas of the map I hadn't visited, and all of it is varied and interesting enough to justify doing for the many hours it will keep you busy. It makes for an epic adventure that I would genuinely say is one of the best RPGs I've ever played and easily my new favorite Assassin's Creed.    … Expand

Despite these technical advances however, it's impossible not to note the fact that the game has about as much to do with assassins as Star Wars has to do with medieval warfare. Though i highly enjoyed my playthrough I couldn't manage to shake the though that Ubisoft would have found much more success had they not attempted to "ride the wave" created by the already long list of entries to the long established series.

    While understandably not for everyone, Odyssey continues to go to places beyond any the series has ever seen. Like Origins before it. Odyssey's greatest strength is its world, an evolving encapsulation of unique characters, interconnected and branching stories, and locations that are just too beautiful too ignore. The immersion has never been on such grand a scale as it is here.

The immersion has never been on such grand a scale as it is here.

    While the grind to achieve your own godhood can be a tedious affair, it's in this grind that helps prevail an overbearing sense of achievement and fulfillment; physically earning your place amongst the echelons of gods and men, while graciously earning just rewards to help tip the fight ever more in your favor.

    Perhaps the series' biggest advancement is the branching narrative; either as Kassandra or Alexios, the story plays to the beat of several emotional moments, centered around family and destiny and finding one's place amongst a world full of gods and monsters. From beautiful beginning to absolutely stunning end (all DLC included), the aptly named Odyssey delivers one of the series most well-rounded stories to date.

    The few smudges that tarnish an otherwise beautiful presentation are present in most dialogue sequences, where lip synching isn't quite right and character models can often recycle after awhile, albeit with new hair and clothes. Most dialogue sequences also have a tendency to feel static, a painful reminder of early Mass Effect days where models talk but don't engage as much.    … Expand

Exploring Ancient Greece feels rewarding at all times and the attention to detail the world has makes things very immersive from start to finish. I really enjoyed the story because I felt more involved than I’ve ever done before in an Assassin’s Creed game and I think that’s mainly because I was allowed to make my own choices. I’ve always really enjoyed the combat in Assassin’s Creed but for some reason I enjoyed the combat more here because it felt fluid and brutal at all times. In terms of content the game has more than enough to keep you satisfied and the variety the content has means things always stay fresh and interesting. The game suffers with a few technichal issues every now and then, but thankfully these are only slightly annoying instead of game-breaking. Sometimes there’s a bit of grinding required and this does make things become a little tedious. Last year the Assassin’s Creed series was injected with a new lease of life thanks to the fantastic Assassin’s Creed: Origins and I went into playing Odyssey with more excitement than I had with previous game’s because the franchise felt more exciting than it had in year’s. Thankfully once again they’ve delivered and in some ways they’ve improved over last year’s game which in my opinion culminates in making Odyssey one of the best game’s this fantastic franchise has delivered so far. I’ve always liked the visuals and sound design in these game’s but for me this is the best looking and sounding game so far. This then means exploring Ancient Greece always feels rewarding and you’ll no doubt be satisfied with the vast amount of varied content the game has. Obviously one of the most important aspects in this series is its combat and I’m pleased to say that they’ve pulled out all the stops here making it feel fluid and more brutal than ever. This then means that the game has got its important aspects spot on and in terms of problems the game doesn’t have many at all, and the problems it does have are very easy to look past. Recommending Odyssey is incredibly easy then and when it’s all said and done fans of Assassin’s Creed will fall in love with this game immediately because it’s basically perfection.… Expand

Some player might find the giant open world is a not so fitting setting to set an Assassin’s Creed story since it can make the player to be seperated from the story from the sheer ammount of time that the world exploration will take to do. The RPG element is good since it is develop together with AC: Origins. The multiple ending is also a good addition because it make the choice that the player have to be more important than normal story branching element.

    The reason i did not give this game a full 10/10 is because althought the modern day story line is connected to the Assassin's Creed Lore the actual animus part of story element althought interesting it is not connected enough even if the is some connection to the Assassin's Creed Lore as a whole.

    Overall the experience of playing this new type of Assassin’s Creed is depend on each player but since i’m a fan of both exploration and Assassin’s Creed francise in general so i can make a good judgment that this game is very good for those who already love the Assassin’s Creed Francise and for those who love exploration and branching story element.

    A Genuine Fast Take of AC: Odyssey

    Every single person on this website that can rate this game below a 5 or 4 needs to review their score for Witcher 3 and reevaluate what the essence of a 'grind' is. All I have seen is moaning and complaining about how 'grindy' the game is when all open-world RPGs have some mild to moderate level of grind. Marking the addition to the series as a    A Genuine Fast Take of AC: Odyssey

    Every single person on this website that can rate this game below a 5 or 4 needs to review their score for Witcher 3 and reevaluate what the essence of a 'grind' is. All I have seen is moaning and complaining about how 'grindy' the game is when all open-world RPGs have some mild to moderate level of grind.

    Marking the addition to the series as a negative based on money you can CHOOSE to spend or not spend is disingenuous and your review is worth goose-egg, as far as I am concerned.

    Moving on from this, I was immediately enraptured by the setting. The world is teeming with all of those curious ? marks that you can immediately explore. I wish that your eagle could physically reveal them for you during scan mode but no dice on that. Some weapon styles are superior to others and some fit into the kind of combat style you are looking for. I enjoy the low cost of the Engraving system that allows you to mix and match specific Engravings for abilities on differing pieces of gear. (Legendary set items scale once you get all the pieces, which is a huge plus for end-game.)

    There is some definite tedium; I enjoyed the way Origins had a quick dodge within combat where it is seemingly missing in Odyssey for a hold down dodge mechanic where the longer button press, the further you dodge. Not ideal but it's there. I miss the old one. Being able to respec abilities is another plus; very cool if you want to try something different in the talent trees.

    The choice of dialogue is better than sitting me through a cutscene and having me answer if I will accept a quest or not. I found myself skipping through Origins scenes incessantly whereas here, I want to see what my differing dialogue choices will net me and what sort of alternating changes that my demeanor will have on future quests, as little or big the ripple in the lake may be.

    Ship controls are rather...meticulous for this entry in the series but it can very well the button scheme that I needed to operate with in the manner in which I liked to play Origins; the mere fact it has the returning option is a plus, familiarity is nice in those outnumbered combat situations. But the water traversal itself is nothing short of gorgeous.

    My biggest complaint? Towns should be made to be fast traveled to. Major towns and cities on islands should have an option to be returned to with a button press. It was present in Origins and ripped from Odyssey for...what? Perhaps the Exploration Mode? I still feel it would round out the travel between points and having to rely on Viewpoints for your back and forth between the world.

    The game has received an 9 because there are things that irk me with it; it diminishes a point for making me yell at some of the minutia of complaints I have. But it also gets a 9 because I am having immense amounts of fun. And that is what matters.

    “Assassin’s Creed Odyssey” is a terrific addition to the franchise. It breathes new life into a franchise that had become quite stale.

    It is more RPG than Action/Adventure. Your ending is based on decisions that you have made. You choose how to allot skill points and how to play the game: stealth, hunter, warrior, or a combination. Choose your weapons and your armour. Upgrade your ship as you see fit. Grind if you want, or don’t if you’d rather not. It is up to you. Choose your quests. Choose your protagonist.

    In my 180 hour (thus far) playthrough as Kassandra with a heavy stealth build, I’ve laughed, rolled my eyes, wondered what brilliant mind comes up with some of these things, and I’ve even cried (once). I’ve regretted some of my decisions and been pleased with others.

    As a prequel to the story of the Assassins and the Templars, there is quite a bit of tantalizing information to explore with regards to the Isu/First Civ and Pieces of Eden. The modern day component of the story, while brief, is very compelling.

    This is the best game that I’ve played since “The Witcher 3.” I’m taking a full point off of what I would otherwise consider a 10/10 game for the forced enemy level scaling. We should be able to choose to turn it off, if we’re so inclined.    … Expand

Although there are new RPG elements that will likely turn many off from it, they aren't overly prevalent. I've made several decisions so far, and it's interesting to see how these play out. The grind some are describing really hasn't been an issue. I've leveled naturally just by going around and doing things. The graphics are beautiful, and the only complaint I have about them is that they aren't as polished as Red Dead. Microtransaactions in this game are very prevalent, and incredibly irritating. The massive amount of content for sale after already buying the full priced game is very frustrating. Right now, I'm not letting this affect my score, because I believe more in rating the game as it is. Even without the any DLC, there's an insane amount of content in this game, and many hours will be spend before even half of the map has been reached! I do recommend this game, but if you buy it, don't buy the microtransactions. Ubisoft needs to realize that these aren't ok.… Expand

The new gear system is a step up from Origins as the random rolls sometimes result in overpowering setups which most people won’t even notice because colors determine rareness. Tired of helping people across Greece, perfect. Get on your ship and unleash the wrath of the (Insert your ships name). Sailing is back and is just as fun as you remember it in Black Flag.

    I started the game towards the end of January, relatively soon after Origins, which I really liked. Now towards the end of March I finished the game after a total of 85 hours.

    Got a total of 55/78 successes (1015 success points). In the end, a progress of 95% after I have done pretty much the most reasonable side quests, all bosses and cultists, as well as discovering every region and upgrading everything.

    Graphics / setting

    Hammer. I played on the One X towards the end and the game is just beautiful in places. The characters were beautifully staged and I really like the setting. Even more than Egypt in origins. The landscape was breathtakingly beautiful and, overall, unbelievably huge.

    The performance actually always ran smoothly. One or the other time there were funny glitches and graphic bugs, but acceptable for the map size.

    Gameplay

    I just like the new AC direction. I really like the combat system and the advanced RPG elements from Origins blend in perfectly with the gameplay flow.

    Overall, I would have liked a little more qualitative diversity in the active skills and perhaps a little earlier the very large selection of passive skills. I almost always played by assassination or ultimately hand-to-hand combat, trying pretty much all weapons. I just didn't like the bars, they just didn't have any oomph.

    story

    As always, I don't want to write so much here; in any case, I was satisfied with my end. In general, I really liked the trip with Kassandra, a great odyssey.

    Negatives

    - horse physics (ran very buggy)
    - Control sometimes led to unwanted assassinations when you just wanted to loot
    - Mercenary system (actually cool) but not well integrated, too often you can't understand the persecution
    - sometimes the gestures were completely exaggerated

Так вот, на данный момент уже предпоследней части удалось удивить. Она не стала копией достаточно революционной и новаторской Origins, взяв лишь некие схожие очертания, она обросла своим относительно оригинальным содержанием. Прежде всего абсолютно новая боевая система, в которой к основным знакомым приемам нам подкинули еще 8 слотов для контактного боя и 4 для лука и это вот прямо находка, я вам скажу, бои стали просто исключительно интересными. Противники в Одиссее стали значительно мощнее и даже с самым слабым из них придётся повозиться, я уже не говорю о капитанах и особенно наемниках, которые практически являются минибоссами, а когда их приваливает больше двух, то как бы лучше делать ноги пока цел. А приходят они, исходя из принципа GTA - чем больше мы делаем шума и открыто валим всех подряд, тем больше наемников захочет нас размазать. Реально Одиссея на сегодняшний день самая сложная из всей серии АС игра, если в любой из предыдущих частей мы могли ввязываться в бои с любой численностью соперников в разумных пределах, то тут это чревато ибо и лучники тут хорошо стреляют и юниты ближнего боя прекрасно технически оснащены и могут очень быстро ушатать нашего персонажа с комбо, закидать взрывашками или поджечь. А ещё в Одиссее появились полноценные боссы и их тут с десяток наберется, с некоторыми из них очень даже пришлось повозиться. Того же Минотавра нам не удалось с первого захода с базовым набором приёмов и оружия приложить, лишь хорошо прокачав нашего Алексиоса, мы смогли унять супостата. Наконец-то сделали толково морские приключения. Бои на галерах, в отличие от посредственного исполнения в Ориджинс, в Одиссее прекрасны. В Одиссее просто огромнейшая карта, честно говоря, не припомню территорию больше чем тут. Мир игровой выполнен умопомрачительно превосходно, он живой настоящий и откликается естественно на вторжение в него. Кажется более насыщенного яркого и просто потрясающего наполнения я не видел никогда. Смена времени суток реалистична до безумия. И теперь это не просто день и ночь, но и завораживающий вечер. А какие тут восход и закат, просто бросаешь все, несешься к побережью и залипаешь. Касательно игрового процесса, кажется, ничего нового – аванпосты, поиски сокровищ, охота на животных, убийство конкретного персонажа, притом если это какая-то побочка, то возможно даже за то, что заказчику не понравилось как на него посмотрели. Я утрирую конечно, но частенько попадаются мисси вроде: «Ему не понравились мои стихи – убей его» или «Кажется она забрала мою корзину – ей не жить»...… Expand

    Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is debatably not an Assassin's Creed game and that is one reason why I loved it. If you've skipped a couple entries of the Assassins Creed game, you’ve missed a lot.

If you've skipped a couple entries of the Assassins Creed game, you’ve missed a lot. Assassins Creed Origins came out in 2017 and was a complete rework of established gameplay mechanics found in earlier entries. It leaned heavily towards an RPG game opposed to the traditional action/stealth game that previous Assassins Creed games were defined by. This drastic departure has resulted in many fans longing for the traditional gameplay, but with the release of Odyssey, Ubisoft doubled down on this style even more. If you were to show this game to someone who was stranded on a deserted island for the last four years, beyond the title screen, there is not much that would signal them that this was an Assassins Creed game. Also, there would be a lot more that you need to update this castaway on before showing them Assassins Creed Odyssey, but that is beside the point. Essentially, how you approach this game will heavily dictate how much you enjoy it. If you go into this game expecting your traditional Assassin's Creed experience, you may be disappointed. I recommend you approach this game with new eyes and an open mind to what the franchise might be evolving into.

    The Assassin's Creed franchise is no stranger to taking historical events and subverting the details to fit their characters; modifying the event to fit the game’s narrative. Odyssey opens up with an epic battle where you are fighting as King Leonidas at the battle of Thermopylae. I would regret not mentioning that you can absolutely Spartan kick your way across this entire game, like Leonidas did in the film ‘300’ (click that link, that scene is so satisfying). Though you only play the introduction as Leonidas, you continue the entirety of the game as one of his heirs, Kassandra or Alexios.

    Odyssey takes place in the historical setting of Greece during the Peloponnesian War. If you're not a history buff and don’t immediately know the context of this war, the quick summary is this: the Spartans were at war with the Athenians due to concerns regarding the growing power of the Athenian Empire. Throughout your journey you will encounter historical figures like Socrates, Hippokrates, Pythagoras and many more. These characters present you with quests or dialogue that directly connect to historical events and emphasize the complexities of the war. This history rich backdrop creates a perfect setting for Odyssey where players get to serve both sides and make choices that will impact the war. Odyssey introduces “Conquest Battles” where players can choose to partake in large scale battles fighting for either the Spartans or Athenians. I was not the biggest fan of this mechanic due to the pure chaos of these scenes, but it served the story well and drove home the impact of your choices.

    In my opinion, the biggest issue with this game is that the experience grind is far too slow and that story missions are gated by your player level. There was a similar mechanic in Origins, but the impact is far more hostile in Odyssey. There were times when I wanted to dive deeper into the main story, but was stopped due to my level-forcing me to then complete side quests. Many of which were quite boring. Side quests like generic fetch quests or “kill this animal” quests, lack the depth to justifiably pull you out of a compelling and entertaining story. It feels like Ubisoft intentionally slowed the overall character progression to nudge you towards buying an XP boost. There has been plenty of backlash due to this practice and hopefully we see this removed in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

    All in all, this does not feel like an Assassins Creed game... and that is okay. The story contains very little reference to the Templars and Assassins Order, but both groups are represented by philosophical concepts of order and chaos. Assassinations are far less reliable in this entry; trading in your hidden blade for a broken spear and a more direct combat approach. The player menus are unrecognizable from classic versions of the game where skill trees and armor selection screens now reside. While not a traditional version of Assassins Creed, I hope that this is the new formula that Ubisoft iterates on. There are classic elements that I wish were more present (like a larger emphasis on stealth and parkour) but I can’t deny that this is the most fun I have ever had with an Assassins Creed game. From the vast array of things to do in Assassins Creed Odyssey to the deep RPG mechanics that enable enjoyable gameplay, this is debatably the best entry in the Assassins Creed franchise. Assassins Creed Odyssey is truly an impressive game and a 9 out of 10 on the Busch League Gaming scoring metric.

You can call this Witcher 3-lite as the inspiration from that game is almost unapologetic-ally the same game but set in the greek world. The story starts out great but peters of toward the end, including the extremely odd decision to make a massively important part to the main, overall story, a bloody side quest half way through the game. It makes absolutely no sense at all to me, especially for a series that desperately needs to find a way to bring the modern day elements that the series has been known for, and is the main plot point that is similar amongst all of the games, to a better spot. There are a ton of good things to go with this game, especially for anyone who played Witcher 3. Mostly because the good things from that game translate over here. The world is absolutely huge and there's tons to do with the Cultists side quest to the Mercenaries stuff here. And I enjoyed the combat system, which has improved upon the Origins massive changes to the series. It's a shame that all of the best stuff at the end of the game requires massive grinding because the main story won't get you to the point where you need to be at for, arguably, the more important things that come after the lackluster ending to that. AC really has developed an identity crisis with these last two games. Especially with this one as there's almost nothing here that relates back to the previous games. With the announcement that there won't be a game in '19 and the next installment will come in 2020, Ubisoft has alot of decisions to make regarding the future of the series. If they continue going down the route they have been with the previous installments, they need to make decisions on how to continue with the series, especially with the modern day elements of the series and whether to even keep them in the game. I'd say that it's time to get rid of it and focus entirely on each games individual setting and how that fits into the overall world. I don't know if I'd recommend this to series veterans looking for a return to form after the big change that Origins was. This game is almost geared more for the series newcomers who don't know much about the long history of the games.… Expand

Ive always been intrigued by greek mytholgy so the lore and historical supporting characters were great. I liked that even though Kassandra was the cannon character that you could play as Alexios and the game didnt seem off at all.

    Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is plenty of fun, and it’s a solid turnaround for the franchise. The future of the franchise is bright.
