I played 408 hours of this game and beat the main campaign unlocked every side quest in the entire game and I'm still working on both DLCs which are massive. The game is probably one of the biggest games I've ever seen in my life the map and game itself is just ginormous. Back then when I was playing this game I was a security officer and I would work 12 hours and then I would be off 4 days straight period on my 4 days off I would spend playing this game on and off. I've done every single exotic armor weapon in the game. I learned every hidden area every side quest I've seen jokes of characters literally jumping off cliffs thinking that they're going to survive only to see that they're going to die on impact. This game I have a lot of thoughts about this game but it's definitely not a game you can just give an arbitrary score to it's a game that you have to talk about and explain. I haven't really sunk my teeth. Into Assassin's Creed Valhalla but if it's anywhere near as long as this game. Oh boy

Unless you get Valhalla for free or $5 don't bother. It's 10 steps back from even Origins. It's a slog and a chore, PC is heavy and slow (movement/climbing) and they took all the fun that odyssey has and replaced it with a worse story, stupid fight animations you can't turn off, dumbed down RPG elements; no armor/weapons builds, no skills (skill tree is a shitshow and is fake; as in it doesn't do anything measurable). Worst of the 3 RPGs. It's bloated, but worse that that there is almost nothing to do and even compared to Odyssey there is almost zero stealth since detection is completely broken.

I only picked up this game in 2022, with the last AC game I played being Black Flag. Yeah, it was that long ago. Picked it up on Game Pass and oh my goodness. I had just bought a Series S and I haven't even played ten hours of any other game. I boot up and jump straight back into Odyssey every time and I haven't even thought about being bored of it yet. As someone who plays exclusively single player, Ubisoft is quickly becoming my favourite game developer. So many games these days are an online multiplayer cash machine with a half baked campaign thrown on. Odyssey is so immersive, rich, entertaining and I love the ability tree (usually I find them overwhelming and annoying) and Ancient Greek mythology in general. It's in my top 3 games of all time and I still have TONS of story left after 100+ hours playing. Absolutely love it

The closest thing I had at the time was the Wind Waker which was still great. But now AC Odyssey finally scratched that particular gaming itch that I've had for over 17 years...im over 100 hours in lol.

Recently wrapping it up, since I skipped it when it released. Probably my favorite of the series. Best feeling of a living open world. People seem to go about their day and have conversations. Vultures circle & eat dead bodies. NPCs grab weapons from weapons racks....they don't just poof out of thin air. At night the people go home and all the lanterns turn on. Amazing water. You shake it off when you exit. Loads of details. As interesting and huge as Elden Ring's open world was, it had zero logic to its design. Just "stuff" plopped down to look cool and create zones. But nothing really made any sense at all. Greece seemed real...for a game.

Running around in ancient Greece in all of its colorful glory is half the fun of the game. I have very few complaints about Odyssey. One big one is the those bombs the other mercs toss at you, doesnt seem fair for them to have any weaponry we have no access to. I mean, our character is a merc too, we should be able to have those little bombs. I dont care about not carrying a shield, in fact im glad i dont have to carry one, i dont want my merc looking like a ninja turtle.

A dynamic world would be very interesting for those like me who had hundred of hours on the game.

I loved Far Cry 4 and 5 and I was a Witcher fanatic pouring over 1,500 hours into it so when Odyssey came out I had to get it. The only Assassin's Creed game I've played is Black Flag and it was fun and beautiful for back then but I did not finish the game so I'm not an Assassin's Creed fanatic by any means. So I went into Odyssey looking for an open world adventure like The Witcher and I can say now in 2023 that it is right there with it. It is the most beautiful game I've ever played and the story and characters are amazing. The world itself is beyond words. I play at 3440x1440 ultrawide and it is not a well optimized game so I had to tweak the settings and lock my framerate at 70 to get the smoothest performance but then I heard about Reshade and gave it a try and it just took the graphics to a whole different level. It made the game much smoother and sharper and really improved the draw distance. Now I can see clear reflections off a soldiers armor from super far distances and trees and shadows are sharp and amazing. I'm doing another playthrough as Alexios after playing Valhalla and losing interest about half way through. It was not even close to Odyssey imo. I'm thinking about taking a trip to Greece just to see all the historic sites and beautiful beaches and mountains. Although many of the names of islands have changed, it's all still there and amazing. I would love to stand right were I stood in the game on top of Mt. Taygetos and look out across the islands. In the pictures on Google it looks almost exactly the same. So other than a few corny lines in the writing, the game is as good as any I've played and is without a doubt the most beautiful.

Every city has a message board, on those message boards there are quests that you can pick up and you'll find yourself doing those quest just by playing the game. There are quests like kill 10 athenian archers, sink 5 pirate/athenian/spartan ships and stuff like that and those quests award tons of xp so you can mostly ignore side quests except a few and just focus on the main quest but be sure to pick up those quests on message boards.

The level restrictions can be almost completely mitigated if you know what you're doing. Most towns and every city have these bounty boards, or what they're called. Whenever you start a new play session, fasttravel to 3-4 locations and accept all the *contracts* (not bounties) they offer. That way, you'll get HUGE amounts of exp simply by playing the game. The contracts can be things like loot 3 nation chests, kill x Athenians or Spartans, sink x ships of a certain type, etc. And don't pick side, you can (and will) kill targets of both factions. You *can* do bounties if you like, but these will send you to specific targets, and if that's close nearby, it's useful to do one or two every now and then, but that's compltely optional, and won't give the best exp. Also, whenever you've complete a couple of contracts, I recommend repeat fasttravelling to a few locations since there will be new ones of the same type availabe somewhere, so it's not just a "once per session" thingy.

As a new PS5 owner and PS Plus Extra member, I really appreciate this video. The reason is because I had never played an Assassin's Creed game before ever, and a ton of them were in the Catalog. So, the logical choice of #1 game to try first was to watch a bunch of KZfaq videos to see which one might be the most appropriate for me to start with. After writing down all the entries in the "Best Of" lists, I settled on Assassin's Creed: Origins. It was very near the top of all the lists and because it was the furthest back in the timeline (ancient Egypt), it seemed like the logical choice. Holy crap, what a great game!! I am 60 hours into it already and have never been bored at all. Taking my time and getting my character stronger to make missions easier to complete has been a huge relief to me, as I suck at gaming and tend to get stuck on missions that must be passed to progress.. I simultaneously downloaded Black Flag, which I intend to play next. Your video made it pretty clear to me that Odyssey may be just the right "next game" in the series to play, as I have no qualms with sinking ridiculous hours into a game as long as I can reach a point where time spent can mean I pass a mission, as opposed to not being able to progress in the game at all and having to give up trying to finish it. So, THANK YOU :) Your breakdown was extremely helpful :)

Gameplay is all right, not amazing but ok enaught. The ship battles are back, which are a welcome feature to break up the "land gameplay" I would recommend picking it up, especially if you like history, cuz this game has a ton of historical figures you will meet along the way.

Just about finished all of Origins, and about to start Odyssey, great video and review...I love Origins, did all the main, side, scrolls quests and looking forward to doing the same with Odyssey, and then Valhalla!

I have read quite a few negative comments because the protagonist doesn't have a hidden blade .... big fricking deal. Every gamer who ignores this game just for this reason is losing the opportunity to get introduced to probably one of the best games ever created. Story is awesome....all DLCs are also super good and they make the whole game really huge. I love the truck loads of different armor and fighting abilities. One fantastic idea of assigning a function to a weapon or armor can make you very strong and if you study it and wisely choose the right engraving you can make yourself invincible and very powerful. Fighting on the sea is also very good and the behaving of the sea is most realistic I have ever seen. Graphic is gorgeous .... even historians are impressed with accuracy and details of the ancient Greece. The only thing in the whole game which disappointed me was Medusa....she was done well except her lower part. I wanted to see a tail instead of legs. I have most of the assassin creed games at home.... this one I played most ...5 times.

I haven’t played an AC title since Black Flag/Rogue. Just bought the Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla trilogy on PSN for $40. I am very happy the franchise revamped the combat mechanics and it now actually feels like a RPG. well done Ubisoft. (Never thought I’d say that)

An easy way to make the slog work in your favour, is to look at the recommended level for each region in the maps and stick to the regions that are at our below your level. That way you have a definite means of upgrading through XP farming by competing easier quests. Want a challenge? Go to regions barely above your recommended level. With some caution, you can mine XP like crazy. Want to be absolutely slaughtered? Go to higher level regions . Get ready to be one-shotted often.... The only problem is if you desynch, the XP is also lost. This is a very decent way of organizing regions to aid in gameplay.

It's the best game of the Layla Hassan trilogy. But it is massive. It took me 135 hours and over 6 months ( Yes, I have a job and a family) to finish everything.

This is my first assassin creed game . I haven’t played since prince of Persia was released. They changed to assassins creed . But I love odyssey! Not much to compare to so for me it’s an awesome game !

As someone whos read "The Odyssey" over 5 times and generally fascinated by greek mythology this game was a ton of fun.

I’ve been playing these games since 1 being my favourite. I’ve also completed and replayed the Ezio trilogy and the colonial ones. I got tired of continuing after syndicate which is a good game but then years later I came across ac odyssey and to be honest it is a good game just not the rpg element, thousands of side missions and one’s to do in order to enter a main quest, npc look HIDEOUS and stupid and finally the loading times are unacceptable.

Neglected this game for years because of fandom Critique, oh how I wish I could rewind time. It’s not a great ac game but it’s a stunning rpg set in Greece.

The complaint about gated progression in an open world game always felt weird to me. It's an open world game; do you expect to just march to the final boss in an hour? Imagine if Skyrim locked the main quest behind level requirements...half the player base would never even know because they never touched the main story to begin with. And on the flip side, side content is often locked away behind level/progression requirements, but nobody ever complains about losing their agency in those cases.

I wish this wasn't an AC game, I don't care that some person is controlling the main character on some device. I just want to be a Greek warrior kicking ass without all that baggage from the AC series. It's just that good and not necessary. Epic game.

I've spend a huge amount of time on this game. At some point, when you 're getting used to the gameplay, it does get repetitive and boring. But nonetheless i enjoyed playing it. One major error occured while I killed a cultist (Melite) and he got stuck in a f-ing wall. So now i cant finish him and therefore i can't achieve all 22 fragments of the Leonardus. I cant reload a previous savegame, because I continued playin hoping the cultist would respawn again. But he didn't.

You got one thing wrong: you HAVE TO invest in your ship at some point, as some missions, especially the cultist branch with all the ship captains, force you to do naval battles that can be difficult at times...

I got this at release, having not played an AC game since Revelations, and couldn't get into it for whatever reason. Picked it up again for £8 before Xmas (cheers ebay!) and this time it clicked, and I've sunk over 150hours, and am 2x trophies short of the platinum. It's an enjoyable rpg, and has some great gameplay elements. However, for me a lot of the main quests, and majority of the side ones are just fetch quests, with little variation. The missions where you can explore caves, tombs and forts are enjoyable, but most boil down to the same mission type. It feels odd to complain about a game being too big, but I personally feel the large map/world stretches out the gameplay & missions too thinly. Yes the world is pretty to look at, but at the same time a LOT of the islands either look the same or have the same layout. I would have rathered a little more variation and some better structured missions. That said, it's dirt cheap and if you're looking for value this is right up there 👍

Finally a review which makes sense, I have only seen reviews full of hatred for this game , no idea why, seriously some reviewers are dumb and have a personal hatred on this game, I like this game for whatever it is, and I loved it, infact it is one of the best game I ever played, excellent graphics, world is so much detailed , greenry and plantation is very good, and I like all the elements of ancient greek myths. This game just nails everything perfectly. I haven't seen a better game than this, yes I played origins and valhalla, they suck in front of this. It is perfectly balanced.

I’m having trouble getting into Odyssey. I loved Valhalla but Odyssey hasn’t clicked with me yet. I like the characters and tone, but the combat lacks any weight, the animations are much rougher, and the hard leveling system just feels too gamey. With Valhalla, I rarely thought about power level. In Odyssey, leveling is something you can’t forget about.
