    Ladies and Gentlemen, Ubisoft now official confirmed, that Assassin's Creed series not anymore exist.

    This is the second clumsy attempt from Ubisoft to make a competitor to The Witcher 3. Ubisoft even stolen a music theme for their main theme from The Witcher 3.

    It's a mess. Garbage optimization on PC. What's even more ridiculous is that "professional" reviewers don't point these things out.
    They focus too much on making people believe that the story is good, while it's as bad as Origins.
    And don't even get me started on this game being called Assassin's Creed despite not being one. Stop supporting this b******t ports for the PC version.    It's a mess. Garbage optimization on PC. What's even more ridiculous is that "professional" reviewers don't point these things out.

    Firstly, I would like to start with that I'm a big fan of Assassin's Creed series. And I just love the main concept of DNA memory reading and strict narration based on reconstruction of ancestor's memories. Though this concept is totally missing in latest AC game. You can choose gender of your ancestor (what?). And then Ubi's narrative designer says: "we wanted gender equality and we found a way to do this while keeping game authentic". Really? She also said that she haven't played AC games at the moment when she applied to Ubi. How can a person claim that game is canonic if she is not even a player of previous parts. All she knows that previous chatacters were white males and she decided to change this, because it wasn't tolerant. As a result we have this parody. It is not sci fi anymore. Game is filled with some kind of Hogwarts magic with mythical creatures and all that... Stealth means nothing in this game. It is what remained from old mechanics, but this game is all about combat, while previous parts were about hiding in shadows. You can shoot through the walls, can move through time and space, can jump from any height without dying and all this thanks to artifact. Artifact that just controls minds, somehow helps you to not die after falling from a 100 meters rock. Your constant ability to choose is against all the canons. How it can be best AC game if it isn't even an AC game. Some slasher RPG, that's what. Another stuff is more technical. This game has awful movement animations, with various glitches. And even more awful facial animations. That is not what I expected from a AAA studio with huge portfolio of great games. Where are the people who cared more about gameplay and about story, than about liberal changes? And Ubi are like: "now you can be gay if you want!". Priorities. Story itself sucks. It is really boring. You just running from one character to another, asking everybody about your mom and they give you simple quests, which just take your time. Grinding is at new level. They replaced chest icons with question marks and you should feel like some explorer. And what I didn't expect, when I bought Ultimate edition, is that this edition is not complete. They still made paid outfits for real money. They are not included in the best edition!? When I spend money on super extra hyper full edition, I expect it to be really full. Greedysoft felt to EA level. Asking money for skins? What is wrong with you, guys? Remember AC Black Flag where you get everything in Gold Edition to feel like you own whole game? What happened to this. We agreed with your policy to cut game on DLCs, but paying even more after buying biggest edition is not okay.    … Expand

    This game feels like a repetitive grindfest with lots of nothing busy work. Runs like garbage as well.

    Spend hours grinding boring repetitive side quests using spammy combat to get xp/items so you can level up and get a sword with +1 so you can do the next mission then Rinse & Repeat.

    Origins did it's best to be innovative and it did it well to an extent. Unfortunately, Odyssey is just another one of Ubisoft's yearly rehashes, Origins reskinned basically. Origins proved that Ubisoft needs at least two years for producing some innovative mechanics for their games and I hope that they follow that hiatus rule for future releases.

    - Spongey enemy types on Hard difficulty
    - Some facial and battle animations are very dated
    - Not sure about the racial accuracy of the populace
    - Kassandra doesn't really make sense, historically speaking
    - Repetitive gameplay
    - Repetitive side quests
    - Absolutely piss poor optimization for PC
    - Egregious MTX attempts

    I am a newcomer to the AC series, and this game does not make a great first impression. I will admit that this game is incredibly gorgeous with respect to the texture details and classical Greek architecture. It is truly a top notch effort from the graphic and environmental designers. I also thought the interwoven story between Kassandra and her family was decent enough to keep me interested. The gameplay really leaves a lot to be desired though, and while I thought some of the unlock-able abilities were cool, the sheer repetitiveness started to get to me.

    This game's combat cycle is awful, it was pretty fun at first for me as I enjoyed the similar stealth gameplay from Far Cry, but it got tiring and repetitive quick. It has the same bandit camps, cave hideouts, animal hot spots, and pilfering opportunities at every single Witcher 3 style question mark on the map. When the stealth gameplay inevitably fails at times, the combat can be fun, but most of the time it is spent slashing at sponge-like enemies that take 90 hits to neutralize while the animations go swinging in and around the body sometimes missing or hitting mid-air like some bad action movie.

    I will never understand why certain individuals within media companies believe that re-writing history in order to fit in political agendas is okay, and the case here is no different. There are certain races and gender roles within this game that just do no make sense for this era. Nobody cares if people from a wide spectrum of races and backgrounds worked on the game, we just want developers to stay faithful to the historical data and respect the culture without injecting their modern day ideologies into games. I don't believe that it is too much to ask for.

    In case Ubisoft needed an update, gamers don't usually like it when you force ideologies down their throat through their favourite avenue of escapism. Ubisoft obviously did not get the memo, because on top of those issues, they have decided to push micro-transactions in a single player game as "time savers". What this equates to for me is: "We want you to pay to skip content in our game". I did not have to take part in these "time savers" as I am generally a completionist and did enough side activity to maintain my level throughout the campaign. Others were not so fortunate and have been blindsided by this egregious monetization tactic that I will outright condemn every time I see it.

    Also going to just quickly mention how poorly optimized this game is for PC. I use an RTX 2080 Ti to play in 4K resolution, and this game hovers between 50-70 FPS on high with HDR on. If it was 70 consistently I wouldn't complain too much, but no matter how much I tweak the settings, I won't see higher than 90 FPS while my CPU usage sits at 100% with a 9900K. What the hell is going on here Ubi?

    Needless to say, this game has a lot of issues, but it also has a lot of potential to be something great. Ubisoft needs to stop trying to release these games every year, and start listening to their loyal fanbase who can provide the franchise's historical context better than I can. I will be taking a look at Valhalla, which incidentally, took more than a year to produce, just to see if the series has anything to offer going forward. It is not looking too good Ubi. 4/10.    … Expand

    Con
    (-) the whole world is just packed with icons, quests, and other activities which is quite overwhelming
    (-) too many of the sidequests are very generic and few of them feel really unique
    (-) you are cluttered with loot at any point. Gear or special weapons
    (-) in my view, the story is too long. Every awesome story "moment" is preceded with 5-10 (boring) quests (most of them follow the principle "kill xy" or "go to the fort, kill everyone and get xy").
    (-) Completing the story takes like forever, 40-50h, it may take even longer if you wish to complete

    Summary
    It's a great game with a breathtaking open world, great atmosphere, and pretty enjoyable gameplay. However, be aware that completing the game may take a while and that the story has a patchy dynamic.    … Expand

    Não estou aqui para tirar o mérito das poucas parte do jogo que funcionam, como os visuais do cenário, e a ambientação, principalmente de Atenas, mas caramba, o que está acontecendo com a Ubisoft? É cada vez mais sobre dinheiro e fazer jogos com 200 horas de gameplay repetitiva e genérica? Se esse é o objetivo então ela está no rumo certo, AC Odysssey tinha tudo para ser um excelente título, mas a mediocridade estava no meio do caminho, muita coisa pra fazer, mas nada de valor no final das contas, apenas mais um jogo que tinha um potencial enorme morrendo na mediocridade.

    A great game, with beautiful graphics and physics too. It's downside is the extremely huge map, it's an assasin's creed game, yet it lacks stealth effectiveness (no stealth kills whenever you want, like past AC games except for Origins) and too many side quests. Plus, no hidden blade.

    300+ hours of play, my verdict is 5/10. Here's why:

    Setting. Greek mythology, the Peloponnesian War, Ancient Greece. Compared to other games (Valhalla, Origins), this is the most interesting and atmospheric one. The setting is very well chosen, just like your main character. Plot. The main quest is interesting, but it is far from a masterpiece. 99% of side-quests are to bring,    300+ hours of play, my verdict is 5/10. Here's why:

    Plot. The main quest is interesting, but it is far from a masterpiece. 99% of side-quests are to bring, collect or kill. Ubisoft went Ubisoft too far. When you play the game, you notice how lazy the developers were about the plot.
    The story fits very badly with the fact that you are a mercenary and a demigod. You are a demigod who is going to collect some flowers or animal skins just because a random unfamiliar grandmother in town asked for it. Great.
    DLC "The fate of Atlantis" is mediocre, but the landscapes are very beautiful.
    DLC "Legacy of the first blade" is criticised due to the forced romance, but it's not only about that. It had the potential when the player was told that he was mercilessly killing everyone, but that's about it. All the rest is, again, collect, bring, kill.
    However, there were a few interesting side quests: Olympic Games, mythical creatures, and others.

    Perhaps the only major positive aspect of the game — Combat. Oh Lord, there has been a lot of controversy about the changes from the classic games. For the old-AC-players, accept the changes, ignore the Assassins Creed name if you want to enjoy the game. The battles are very interesting. Be it simple soldiers or mythical gods. The rejection of realism in a series of games is justified in battles. Choose your style or combine several: Warrior, Assassin, Hunter = Direct Attack, Stealth, Archery. All this, together with magical abilities, makes the game interesting.

    Character animations: worst thing in the game. Most of the dialogues are accompanied by the same gestures and emotions. I understand that this is costly with so many dialogues, but still, it is repeated in 90% of cases, and it is noticeable. And I am not mentioning the same faces of the characters. There are literally five or six of them, not counting ≈6 unique faces, including main character. MOST of the plot characters are so similar that it gets funny. Considering that I don't complain about this in other games like Fallout 4 or The Witcher 3, this is so terrible for a game of this level.

    Dialogue options. Except a few times, they do not affect the plot AT ALL. There is a sense in them only if you want to kill or leave alive secondary useless characters or have an affair with someone.
    Did I mention the forced romance?

    Additional good moments:
    Soundtrack 10/10.
    The graphics are great. I have already said that the game is beautiful. In the DLC about Atlantis, the game is simply mesmerising.
    While the dialogue is the most frustrating part, some of it is well done. Relevant humour and drama. It is a pity that there were very few such moments.

    Results: Quite frankly, the game keeps your interest only in getting you to farm some cool gear and improve magic skills. Not worth the money.    … Expand

    In short, this game is …bad and now let’s see why :

    The game is kind of beautiful, the horse render and animations though are unaceptable, especially after the Witcher 3. Yes, the world is large, empty but so large, wahou, what a lot of fun and emotions here… Who wrote that story ? Did somebody actually get paid to write that story ? Is this a joke ? There are more plot holes in    In short, this game is …bad and now let’s see why :

    The game is kind of beautiful, the horse render and animations though are unaceptable, especially after the Witcher 3.

    Yes, the world is large, empty but so large, wahou, what a lot of fun and emotions here…

    Who wrote that story ? Did somebody actually get paid to write that story ? Is this a joke ? There are more plot holes in the main story than I ever saw in my life.

    I played Kassandra and if I remember correctly, there are at least 3 times where her brother should have just die but did not for whatever deus ex machina reason, what is this ?

    I had the happy ending, sorry, the cliché “we-are-a-united-and-happy-familly-now”

    That’s not too bad actually, if only there weren’t all these plot holes………..

    But the Cult storyline…, is this a joke ?

    When you finally discover the identity of the leader and you go to defeat it, the combat last like 2 seconds, I don”t remember exactly how many guards there were but it was so quick, I spent way more time fighting against the second hands than the actual leader, there was nothing e-p-i-c to it….Is it too much to ask to have an EPIC fight against the leader of the Cult, which is supposed to be the ultimate ennemy in your game ?????????

    The other storyline with the real father is unaceptable because in order to get the final word of that story, you need to buy the DLC, Ohhh Ubisooffttt

    In terms of gameplay, the combat is really bad, it feels like an 90’s arcade game or something.

    It also seems that the character does not take damages on its mesh but rather on its capsule collider because you can defintly see in some fights (against spares or boars for instance) that you are not touched but for some reasons you are actually damaged, so you need to take into account the obvious capsule collider around you, which I did not since……at least way before Tomb Raider 1…..1996 ?

    The naval combat are good but less interesting than Black Flag (yes, they did not had cannons at that time, yes, I know, thank you Einstein)

    The mercenary mechanic is one the worst idea ever. :

    After the first mission that you do for the guy that is revealed as a Cult Member, (the guy that sends you to kill your father), when that guy tells you that he wants you to kill your mother, there’s a fight.

    Well, I don’t know what happened but I ended up fighting against the guy’s guards but also some civilians of the town and 5 mercenaries that came to kill me because multiple bounties came on my head as the fight was going. I won, but my god, what a mess !

    it was a complete non sense, just insane. I’m pretty sure that things should not have gone that far but the simple fact that they have is enought to show that Ubisoft are just bad at making video games.

    The present part was less present (lol) and that’s fine because they obviously want to ditch it but they can’t and they know it, but, as always, the transition between the animus part and the present came at the wrong moment (incredible) and the gameplay in these present parts is …….let’s say non-existent.

    Let’s not forget some side boss fights that could have been great and that went …….well….

    The Minotaur for instance, that was something I first liked.

    You enter in the maze, you have this creepy mood, I was like “Finally !!!! Finally something that will wake me up here and give me some sensations”, you had fog in the maze, you could hear the screams of the beast, it was terrifying, I was expecting the minotaur to appear at any moment at the end of a corridor with its two red eyes, charging me by surprise and…..and…..and……Ohhhhhhhhh Ubisooooooffffffttttttttttttttttttttttttt …….

    And nothing !! You find the exit of the maze, you enter a room, there’s a cutscene, the minotaur is there, in a large room, you fight, you win, you go back, wonderful.

    Oh my god, why ? Why are Ubisoft unable to even succeed at a simple encounter like this one ? Is there no one there to knock things off and bring some ambition to their games ?

    Yes the world’s huge but it’s lifeless, it’s empty, it’s boring, it’s cliché, it’s not epic, there are no emotions, it’s flat, we don’t care about anything, not about the characters, not about the stories, we care about nothing.

    I’m sure there are some details I forgot, yes the battlegrounds……Yes..Well I said earlier that the combat was bad so….

    I mean, some people said that the combat style of the Witcher 3 was bad and that they prefer this one, but are these people insane ? In the Witcher 3 you could dance with your sword, you have so many differents ways to evade an attack, when you had mastered the combat style, you could feel like a dancer. Here I felt like a giant elephant with a sword, fighting some other elephants. Wonderful. Do we have to talk about the romances ? No we don’t.    … Expand

Were it not for the occasional musical cue reminding you of what you're playing, this would hardly qualify as part of the franchise, with how far and aggressive of a divorce it is from essentially everything that's gotten the series known and liked up until this point.

    I've tried finishing this game twice with a couple of years in between attempts, with an odd 90 hours total sunk into it. I barely even managed to see the entire main plot through and could hardly begin to scratch the surface of the content: there's a lot of it, but it is all so boring, lazy and uninspired. True definition of wide as an ocean, shallow as a pond.

    The level gating and XP progression only serve to give the game a vague illusion of adventure, when in reality it's doing little more than pulling you by the nose, promising an eventual power spike that never comes. You're weak, you stay weak, and enemies will never, ever take enough damage for combat to feel even remotely enjoyable. You start the game beating up damage sponges and you end the game beating up damage sponges who occasionally glow and throw fire spears at you.

    All in all, Odyssey is simultaneously an enraging and extremely forgettable experience, from its viciously uninteresting plot to its desert-dry characters through to its repetitive world which lacks any of the careful detail and care that should have gone into it. Turns out, making your world this pointlessly large just means you will have no room for actual development, and all assets will be stretched thin, reused to death with all bits of flavor taken out of them through rampant repetition.

    Give this game a hard pass. It's not worth the money, and it's especially not worth the time it wants to take out of you. An exercise in frustration at best and a genuine, complete and utter waste of time at worst. Origins knew when to stop and where to limit its content so as to not be overbearingly massive, but Odyssey shows no such restraint. This is, far as I'm concerned, one of the worst entries in a franchise already mired in bad decisions and average games.    … Expand

    Gameplay is ok, but it doesn't fit with AC, magic powers and teleporting, i thought ac was trying to be historicaly accurate. The story is a regular one, but it's not an AC, you have 2 or 3 moments that you have to farm COMPULSARY, that ruins completely the pace of the story and the optimization is bad. I don't give it less note because i think it's a fun game after all.

    It's definitely not Assassin's Creed. Just ubisoft trying to make an RPG (and failed) and using AC franchise to promote it. The game is just a repetition since the beginning.

    First of all, Assasin's creed shouldn't have any continuation after Black flag. I felt that Black Flag was like a last one that actually builds any further story. After Black flag almost none of the further Assasins were changing the game mechanics - all the time the same(small changes), all the time from the start. Moreover the way the story is told in Assasins is a bit clamsy. RepeatableFirst of all, Assasin's creed shouldn't have any continuation after Black flag. I felt that Black Flag was like a last one that actually builds any further story. After Black flag almost none of the further Assasins were changing the game mechanics - all the time the same(small changes), all the time from the start. Moreover the way the story is told in Assasins is a bit clamsy. Repeatable story, stiff dialogs, so I gave up with the series.

    Than I have heared that "latest"(Origins, Odyssey) Assasins have changed the gameplay mechanics, so I decided to give it a try. I haven't finished the game yet, but I made like 25 hours in the Odyssey and I can say some words about it.
    Pros:
    - We have skills both for the close-combat weapons(sword, etc.) and a range weapon(bow).
    - We have a big, beautiful world with islands
    - The world is divided into zones ment for specific lvls
    - We have "ships module" from previous games, adjusted to the timeframe. (bows, instead cannons, etc)
    - We have a visual branch of people to kill, and when you kill them, you get tokens for upgrades, it's a nice mechanics.
    - You don't get desynchronized when you kill NPCs, instead your crime meter rises and you're being hunted while still having a chance to survive(and kill the hunters for rewards).
    - RPG mechanics is a breath of fresh air in this game, you have lvls, upgradeable skills, equipable items
    - The combat is quite good, avoids, blocks.
    - We have army vs army mode, where you can support one of the side and for the win you get items

    Cons:
    - The story - as it is another assisn... I cannot unite with my character, I just don't feel it, the character is not a part of something big and every next assasin game is made for no reason, how many times can we go thorugh the game with the same background? If the game wasn't assasin, this could be all different.
    - The lvl scalling - This part pains me the same as the story one - the world lvl is scaled up to your lvl, the zone you're in cannot be lower than you -4 lvls, so basically all you do in the game, all the upgrades you make, you feel all the time like you don't progress at all, as you deal the same dmg oveer and over, the skills dmg doesn't really change much too.
    - Even though we have ships, it doesn't feel that good like in Black Flag. You just sail to another island, because there is a quest... and I don't feel like fighting other ships, because even when you get resources for upgrades, still there is lvl scalling or stronger enemies and you do the same dmg all over again.
    - Even though we have a big world, the world is empty, I mean it's filled with a lot of boring repeating quests like: go-and-kill, open chest, find a piece of paper, clear a cave, that don't bring anything to the story and the bonuses(exp) you get, etc. is getting "lost" due to lvl scalling.
    - The "synchronizing towers", srsly? again? Just to unlock fast-travel? And a flying eagle effect for 10 seconds?
    - You get slots for skills over time. You get 4 per-weapon in the beginning, than you get more. Some may like it, but I didn't feel good with being limited to 4 skills, when I had bought 12, because in that part of the game, I could spare only 1point per skill.
    - Opening menus animations are annoying for me, even though the UI looks nice and intuitive, they take too long (3secs to open),
    - The map tab and quests tab should be somehow combined together, because switching between it, checking where the quest is, going back is just not handy.
    - "Heart" dialogs, we can have sex, but whatever, when you don't feel the character you play.
    - Items lvls - each item has its lvl, which can be increased to the lvl of your character, no matter what rarity type is the weapon, so if you are stubborn you can loot one piece of crap and upgrade it through the whole game - the dmg doesn't count anyway, due to scalling.
    - Even though the combat system is quite good, the opponents moves are repeatable, the enemies are repeatable, which just don't fit to such big world.

    To summarize, the game is playable. It is even exiting for the first 20 hours, than you get border or repeating things and a lack of progressing. Dear Ubisoft if you read it, please close the series, call your game something else, change the background, maybe at least I won't be so negative about starting another piece of tapeworm and having the stiff story I can't relate to, because I'll have another game in the series with completly different characters. (Unlike AC II) Also please decrease the world size, or at least please fill it with more valuable unqiue content, like quests with unique stories - you can take an example from The Witcher 3.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game has pretty solid graphics, decent parkour, and at times good boss fights. You can see a lot of initial concepts here that might be solid if they were handled better. However Ubisoft fails to learn from it's RPG inspiration like the Witcher 3, and creates a confusing web of side quests, grinding, and empty boring characters. As per usual in Ubisoft's recent games, shock value takes priority over character development, with characters being killed off seemingly just to anger you, or to make you feel like theres some bigger picture, when in truth the vast majority of what you doesn't matter whatsoever.
    This game is no longer assassin's creed (which is disappointing but no a deal breaker), until you realize you won't be having a hidden blade unless you buy DLC. Oh and the illusion of choosing your own relationships? Yeah that goes out the window too, because you're going to have to have a kid despite Layla not needing ancestors dna to make her animus work, JUST SO THEY CAN MAKE KASSANDRA THE ANCESTOR OF AYA.
    That's another thing, instead of leaving it as "well the history isn't clear and their DNA is similar so either one of them could've been the eagle bearer", they tell anyone who choose Alexios you're character isn't Canon.
    On top of all that you can't turn level scaling off so even enemies like bears will be on tier to stomp your butt into the floor despite any mythical gear you may have or divine power within you.
    The final nail in the coffin is the twist that the Eagle bearer is alive the whole time and gives Layla the staff of Hermes. So not only are we going to have to deal with a crappy character, we could've had a much more interesting story playing as Alexios/Kassandra in modern day instead of being stuck in the one note character that is Layla.
    If Valhalla doesn't drastically improve on all elements of its story, RPG mechanics, gameplay depth and variety, cutting down on the grindy gameplay, and enhancing the sense of effecting the world and characters around you, then avoid this series for the foreseeable future.    … Expand

    The game is absolutely fun. These idiots that say it is forcing to use xp boosts should know that I'm one of those that didn't use a single xp boost and finished the game with full exploration. It didn't need any boost. When I reached my max level still there were bunch of locations to explore and gain more xp. Telling the story of apples and the first Templars was perfect.

I don;'t normally like to give games a 10, but with the laughable amount of 0 scores with the risk of being a bit hypocritical I give this title a 10. If the reviews would have been more reasonable I would still rate this game a solid 9.

    The good:
    - The improved parkour mechanics (you rarely get stuck of which was a bit of an issue in the past)
    - The Story (don't get fooled by some of the reviews, the writing is quite funny and smart)
    - The voice acting; especially Kassandra. The actor of Alexios did a good job too.
    - The combat (yes, it's different and a breakaway from the old combat style, but it's fun!)
    - The Huge Map.
    - The huge amount of content.
    - Ship combat. Best ship combat of the series.

    The bad:
    - A few minor bugs (very few though)
    - Fire tanks the FPS quite hard which makes speccing into fire damange not worth it (poison ftw).
    - Stupido was a bit..... stupido (*wink* very funny questine)

    Protest Score - I'm not sure why some critics didn't even mention the grind enticing people into buying real money boosts to normalize XP. Actively making your game worse for profit? And after the fist dozen hours so people don't mention it in early reviews ...

    I thought that developers had got the point after last years debacle.

    Gamer's DO NOT buy games with these micro transactions in. it's not good enough to buy a game and simply ignore the MTs! They will grow with each release. Just look at orgins, it slipped in and now they are slowly notching it up the boosts etc. its slow creep. don't fall for it!

    These games do not need to make there game worse but adding this balance breaking nonsense into single player games, increase the ticket price by £10 if you really need and give a full balanced experience.

    From now on it should be known as called Assassins Greed.    … Expand

    Хуже системы боя я нигде не встречал, это просто ужасно. Чертова система уровней которая не дает убить врага если он на 2 уровня выше тебя. Колоссальный дисбаланс урона.

    Ouh... Horrible animations which makes parkour sharp and totally unrealistic. Skills idea is stupid idea in AC game LOL. Quests are so simple and so bad. Even more than AC Origins!!! (if You don`t belive: first mission is to rescue a girl from bandits[they captured her in the middle of the street], After You find the camp, You have to kill 3 or 4 bandits, after killing them You just takeOuh...

(if You don`t belive: first mission is to rescue a girl from bandits[they captured her in the middle of the street], After You find the camp, You have to kill 3 or 4 bandits, after killing them You just take close to the tied girl, press E[your hero is just waving the hand to untie her in game for xxx mln $ hahaha]. You think mmm okay, to this point game is just not polished at all... But what You see after 5 seconds is just something i can`t even imagine. Girl is saying she don`t need Your escort and she just walk away LOOOOL. The nonsense of AC quests gets maximum!!!). Fighting is really bad feeling. Magic weapons: really? Your choices in the new dialouge system are pointless. Example from first possible dialogue in the game: "Would you pray for me?" - a)Yes, no problem b)Maybe. I pressed a) and my hero said: "I will try what I can do but I don`t promise" XDDDDDDD
    On the plus: music and cutscenes.    … Expand

    Good example how to ruin the PERFECT setting (all that ancient heroes, myths, architecture, battles, ancient philosophy, sport).

    + Pretty attractive alter-ego + Good music/sfx + Some new game mechanics - GRIND and pay to win. Nonsense. Ruin all the game, which is potentially    Good example how to ruin the PERFECT setting (all that ancient heroes, myths, architecture, battles, ancient philosophy, sport).

    - GRIND and pay to win. Nonsense. Ruin all the game, which is potentially 7-8/10.
    - Enemy Scaling/level up. You just can't have ENOUGH level. Some guys 1-2 lvl lower can easily beat you, while you have butthurt even to kill enemy 1 lvl higher.
    - Boring missions. Bad design, like in AC black Flag. Just copy-paste quests.
    - Lack of random events, just loosing so much opportunities.
    - Few characters
    - Mixing Witcher-, Mass effect-, For Honor-, action/rpg-mechanics with AC gameplay completely failed.
    - Naval battles are soooo bad
    - AI. slightly better, than in Origins, but still bad. But their wallhacking isn't fair!
    - Battles and bosses

    Hope next part (2 games, I guess, according to Ubisoft's logic) will avoid lots of pathetic experiments, like in AC: Odyssey.    … Expand

    I looked at the desktop icon to start the game for 2 minutes, couldnt find a reason to play, then started watching netflix. It was a lot more fun. It should be called assassins GRIND.

    The game was terrible. Specially character levels limited you. Engine is the same as origins and looks 6 years ago quality

    The latest addition to the Assassin's Creed franchise is truly a wonder and a fresh take on a stale idea. The excellent execution, gameplay and story is only overshadowed by greedy micro transactions, paid XP and awful optimization.

    An excellent and beautiful game from ancient Greece. Maybe it’s very different from the first game, however this evolution benefits the brand. [Issue#290]

    While AC: Origins was packed with interesting stories, Odyssey is a generic ’Ubisoft sandbox’ in the worst sense, with hundreds of the same-looking places, dozens of ”kill-fetch” quests and almost zero motivation to grind further.
