Just started playing Odyssey yesterday, sitting around lvl 16 and 8-ish hours (exploring all of Phokis rn) so this is perfect timing!

Origins is my favourite AC-Game...the soundtrack,the story and all the graphics are just a masterpiece for me and fit perfectly together😍...Love your Videos

There is no such thing as the best game over the ac fan base because every game is someone’s favorite

I loved both. I liked odyssey as a game better by quite a bit. Origins is more ac focused tho

Oddessy might be hated for not including major things that are synonymous with AC, but I still believe that it is a great game that deserved its game of the year nomination, it just should have tried to incorporate more of what we know from AC

Origins has such a special place in my heart, it's just perfect to me. Sometimes I turn on the game just to explore the desert and enjoy the views. Other than that, Bayek and Aya are amazing, the DLCs are great, the story is great as well. Such a fun game ❤️

Both great games but I like Origins more, probably biased because I love Egyptian Ancient History

I’ve done multiple playthroughs for both Origins and Odyssey. I absolutely love Greek mythology, it’s really easy to understand and kind of ironic in a way, which is something Odyssey specializes in quite well. Besides the damage sponge enemies getting repetitive, I enjoy almost every mechanic about the game. Origins, however, made me think more about the story then about the RPG grind. To me, Bayek was much more important than Kassandra, and his story was much more meaningful to me. I also found the animations in Origins to seem more smooth I guess, than Odyssey’s which seemed sort of choppy. Seeing Origins have a map that also didn’t have copy and paste locations made all of Egypt seem different, which I absolutely loved. Origins definitely takes the cake for me, much more similar to the idea of Assassins to begin with, but Odyssey was extremely underrated when it came out, and I’m glad it’s getting recognition now, as I would suggest anyone who’s played some of the RPG games to try Odyssey. Thanks for reading 😅

It was really weird that you didn't mention the three main pillars of AC ( so basically a gameplay category ), it seems like an important thing to know when ranking AC games or any games in general.

I really look forward to the hidden ones videos, one if the best out here, detailed, interesting, ones to wait for

I love Odyssey. It’s the only AC game I’ve really played (minus an excursion into some of the old games) and I prefer RPGs versus the stealth stuff. I am also a huge Greek Mythology fan, so it hit all the right marks for me.

It’s weird seeing someone fight the Minotaur normally because i always fought it the same way I fought the cyclops, by circling it and pelting it with arrows.

I almost finished the curse of the pharao’s and after going to do Odynsie, but I love Egypt, its beautifull

I just started Odyssey, currently in 16 hours and I want to know if there is like a Hidden One with the TRON futuristic cosmetic in Odyssey I want to grind those kind of clothing instead of buying just to make my character looks cool, I prefer the hard way thanks.

I just wanted to say I really enjoy your content and love for the series. Can't wait for the next one.

This will be kinda long. The only issues I have with both of these games is the lack of some grounding of the character to the open world. It feels like you exist on the game world rather than in it after it’s done wowing you with its beauty. What I mean is stuff like being able to sprint across the entire map, never needing to take care of your gear, ship or character. The climb everything mechanic as well as stuff like ignoring fall damage, which is cool in theory but when you understand that it exists not to enhance traversal but to stop it from feeling tedious is kind if disappointing. It would have been cool if you could purchase one of the many little homes around the map in every major area and interact with it. Have it be a place where you have a stash and can rejuvenate and relax with actual benefits. We should be able to interact with the city as well, like maybe buy stuff from the markets, rest at some public or private pool, eat at a tavern and stuff like that. If I’m gonna cross a whole desert or sea instead of fast traveling , it should be more engaging and feel like a journey. It should be something I have to make sure I’m prepped for. Doesn’t need to be a huge deal but just something that keeps the immersion. I’d like to be able to setup camp in the frontiers, have the horse mean more than just ‘faster than running’ and hunting be more immersive. As it is the only two ways of interacting with the game world is fight or traverse. Which feels like being blue balled because the game world is so well detailed and is begging to be interacted with. That and I wished for more dynamic activities and events in the game world. Origins had a lot of dynamic patterns for the npcs and their activity cycles. But none that you could interact with, you could only just watch. Except finding enemies fighting eachother and choosing to intervene, which really just had you agro everyone against you, there wasn’t much dynamic encounters. I think most of the side quests should have just been dynamic activities you come across organically. If you were to sit back and watch, especially origins, the NPC patters, including animals would amaze you. All they needed to add Is a dynamic and organic way to interact with it besides just fight or in a quest. The combat also got very stale for both games after a while. I wish they had more combos like maybe a system where there’s different attacks and effects when you mix and match the light and heavy. I know you can mix the attacks but it’s still all the same moves. Origins also desperately needed more assassination animations. The combat overall lacked that distinctive AC flair. It relied more on super powers as a wow cool factor. These were the only things holding me from having these two games as my best games ever made. Because everything else in terms of gameplay and world building is just nuts that it Carrie’s a first play through very well.

Comparing Origins to Odyssey is like : Quality vs Quantity

I am playing the games started in AC 1 and now I am in AC 4, but I am heavly looking forward to play AC Origins.

The story and assassin feeling in origins is better. But as far as an RPG and replay value, I gotta go odyssey. I’ve put in like 170 hours so far and I’m still having a blast, and definitely plan on doing NG+ after I’m done

Just finishing up the other side plots of Odyssey and I noticed that Origins is on sale. I’ll probably start that next.

Im only 20h into Odyssey but so far its been great and the gameplay feels more refined and smoother tham Origins tbh

The setting and vibe of Origins is unmatched. The sound track creeps in at the right times, it’s such a perfectly formulated sound track too. Gives off mysterious and other worldy vibes.

Bayek is one of the 3 greatest AC protagonists right next to ezio and Edward. While Odyssey on paper has an equally emotional story arc Bayek’s story was done so much better and I just cared much more about him and his journey than anything with Alexios or Kassandra. The first scene in the pyramids with Bayek already sold me on his character. Like almost every other Assassins Creed protagonist he is on a quest for revenge. However during the side quests and the slow story moments his humanity shines through. he’s a very empathetic person. Also the voice acting from abubakar salim as Bayek is absolutely outstanding. The pain in his voice was noticeable and made his performance stand out a lot. In some ways Bayek reminded me of Geralt of Rivia my favorite gaming protagonist of all time. on the surface he’s an angry warrior, but there is much more than meets the eye same as with Geralt.

Imo, Origins is better as an AC game Odyssey is better as an rpg. But, it is easily noticeable that Origins was made with much more love and passion than Odyssey. Maybe the 10th anniversary was part of it

Ac orgins was my first ac game and it felt so good as well the atmosphere, odyssey was my second game and it its also very good game, i spent more hours to odyssey and it has a lot of things to do.

Origins is truly the best ac game ever in terms of length , story, gameplay and setting. There’s no better.

Could not have said any of this better myself! I’ve always been more partial to Odyssey myself, but it’s hard to deny the importance of Origin and its story in the overall AC timeline. Also who could be mad about sliding down the great pyramids?! 😸

AC odyssey is one of the best games ive ever played, i played through the story about 5 times on different saves its just wonderful and never gets old, people say its not an ac game, but it literally is, it shows the start of the templars which is the cult abusing the artifact to manipulate the tides of war and order and alexios is the one who stops it, ofc they arent assassins because the order came before the assassins and to show the beginning of the order you cant have assassins at the same time if they didnt exist back then. Also the dlcs are isu focused which are also part of the assassins creed lore and are the main part of it basically. Assassins creed odyssey is the better game for me because it has more to offer and because it IS an assassins creed game, people just dont think it is because they dont know the deeper lore of Assassins Creed and think that its all about assassins and nothing more, when since the first game the reason for the games existence is because of the artifacts of eden which come from the isu which are then abused by the order and the assassins are only there to stop them

I’m probably one of the only few here but I have to say odyssey it’s one of the most stunning and beautiful games I’ve ever played and I absolutely loved the story

I never played Odyssey. Will get it when its on Sale. I just have bought Origins. I love the acient Egypt setting.

I like Odyssey because of Kassandra, her poise and voice is just perfect, in Origin I like the MC as well, but the settings and the world make sense to me, I do like the greek mythology behind Odyssey but Egpyt is just hits different.

i think they should did same thing as ac syndicate boss fight in the end flavious and septimus vs bayek and aya and let all 4 in land of duat after killing them

I think both of these games are pretty evenly matched IMO, usually when people ask about the Assassin’s Creed RPG trilogy it’s usually just these 2 that are talked about while Valhalla is tossed off to the side. My personal take on these it that Origins is better for the story but Odyssey is better for the gameplay. Odyssey has a lot of content & it’s just fun to play as you feel pretty powerful late in the game. With Origins I love the setting & the story is easier to follow & told better.

both games are great! loved cassandra more ❤ and the vacation feeling of greece.

Whilst Odyssey portrayed my favourite period in history, somewhat, it just felt like an Origins DLC, which is how it started out originally.

Yeah the first part of Origins is pretty good. But the last third or quarter falls on its face. Meanwhile, Odyssey I think stays pretty consistent throughout. I think the main enjoyment factor comes from which did you enjoy more during history class, ancient greece or egypt.

Origins was my 1st AC game & has become in my top 10 games ever

Origins is way better than Odyssey in terms of characters and storyline. It sucked that Odyssey doesn't focus much Assassin's stuff like Origins because at least it was mention in AC Brotherhood with Aya in it. Odyssey is great with Greek mythology and historical references which I respect but for the life of me, Odyssey is such lowbar for me on AC RPG games in general, thats where they lost on the story of Assassin's.

Played both Odyssey and origin including their dlc. In my opinion Origin is good especially for those who are crazy ac fan but after I finished Origin, I kind missed playing Odyssey. Comparing both game dlcs, I would say Odyssey is slightly better and interesting and not to mention the combat in odyssey felt better and felt godly at endgame 😂

12:54 I'm not so sure about that statement to be honest. It's possible to make a fully fleshed out character defined by player's actions, a great example would be Commander Shepard from Mass Effect series. No matter what choices you make, he/she still feels like they are their own character, and not just the player's avatar. I'd say it's more of a problem with writing, but i guess it was Ubisoft's first attemt at player choice on such scale. Good thing AC Valhalla fixed those issues. /s

I absolutely love both.

Gotta be Origins for me. That game is a masterpiece in so many ways

Origins is a better Assassin's Creed game, but Odyssey is a better game in general with design, combat, and exploration. I also liked the Cultest system

How is this even a competition? Yes, Origins miles better. Now, I'll wait when the add ends.

I wish he compared origins and oddessy came play and RPG aspects

lol I agree, but it's still a game. So which one has the better gameplay? The best game loop? Skills - and skills tree? Combat animations? A better options menu and interface variety? Which game is more fleshed out in terms of boss fights, and Player Vs CPU inputs - in stealth and combat? If you were to showcase people both, then which of these two is more fun?... As a game, and as a product that relies on inputs to keep consumers engaged, we really need to start comparing the gameplay (first) more often 😢

It's sad that people always say ac Odyssey is bad without trying it in my opinion it's a really good game.

i wish i never would’ve played odyssey or valhalla cause i love origins so much, but the other two just burned me out on that style of game

In terms of what features I think each game has over the other: Origins: +Better protagonist (Hands down) +Better setting +Better leveling system +Better story +Not feeling too bloated +Enemies don't feel like damage sponges +Ties into the Assassin's Creed title better +Confession scenes from the targets +More consistent tone +More memorable targets Odyssey: +More customization options +Better modern day +Enemies with different varieties of attacks plus can fight civilians as well +The cultist system +More landmarks to find in the world +Can use naval combat whenever rather than just being restricted to certain missions +More memorable side characters +More skills to use Both have great boss fights, lots of detail put into their worlds, lots of side content, and have multiple DLCs that add new worlds and expand upon their main stories.

I love both games, Protagonist wise i like bayek more than alexios but soundtrack oddesey and overall both are really amazing games everyone should play if they love history and rpg games

I think Odyssey is a better game but Origins is a better AC. I personally loved Odyssey but fought to finish Origins.

bro after i saw ur video now wanna play with bayek after years

As a greek my self i like both of them.Odyssey is really good game and its nice see the ancient greek world and exploring and the mythology.But i prefer origins, the ancient egypt history is really cool to see too and the story is better AND bayek is of the best protagonist in the series and it makes the game even better

I played both I like both but did over 200 hours on origins, probably would not do that on odyssey

it’s impossible to pick I love both not picking between these 2

A few months ago I would've said Origins but the replay-ability of Odyssey puts Origins to shame

As someone that has thoroughly enjoyed playing both games, who loves Ancient Greece and Egypt, I have to say that Odyssey is better by a decent amount. The combat in Odyssey is more fluid and well rounded, the Cultist system is awesome, and the scenic views and landscapes are second to any game. While I think Origins and Odyssey are phenomenal games, I give odyssey the edge.

Finshed origins few weeks back and currently on odyssey playthrough. So far I liked origins better. Lets see though if odyssey grows more on me.. Love ur vids tho!✌🏼💯

I love both :))

I've platinum both games, both games are beautiful

It's Origins hands down, at least as far as narrative goes. Like, no comparsion. Now, let's watch the video.

I’m playing odyssey now and I must say it’s far better than people give it credit for. I still think it’s issue is it’s gone too far back in time that it’s like a huge game of back story on where the templars came from and human isu hybrids etc. but the game mechanics build on Origins very well. Origins is the better AC game even with the mythical elements.

Origins by a million.

I love both

I've played both and I like the assassin feel of Origins more. However, Odyssey has better game mechanics built in, between the two.

In my opinion I personally prefer odyssey more as origins I didn’t like aya but loved bayek and I loved the more Greek aspect than the Egyptian aspect

I platinum both, I liked Origins more simply because it has shield and no endless of mercenary coming at you like in Odyssey, you can’t hide unless you use vanish mode. Too much of demigod, takes longer to kill enemies and endless of war you don’t know which side you’re on. Crocodiles are so much cooler in Origins than Sharks in Odyssey… it even has Egyptian crocodile God. I liked the exploration and the water in Odyssey but overall Origins is so much better. AC vibe with stealth, simple combat to the point, mystery, this game took me to an ancient Egypt and learned Egyptian Gods while fighting Roman Empire which was so cool, while Odyssey feels like a vacation and when war in region turned blue or red, you’re like meh… Lol

Assassin'S Creed Origins is more of an Assassin'S Creed with a Little Mix of RPG, While Assassin'S Creed Odyssey is a RPG with a Little Mix of Assassin'S Creed, but both are Great games. Even So Assassin'S Creed Origins is much more Detailed and I am a little Disappointed Just to Increase the Scope of the Game thy Ignored the Attention of Details AND THE BIGGEST THING, they completely gave up On Cinmatic Cutscene for most of the Chunk for future Assassin'S Creed.

Pretty damn late comment, sorry. Personally, overall, I prefer Origins. As Bayeks story is relateable and I find ancient Egypt fascinating. I used to dislike Odyssey alot, despite having put well over 400 hours into it to this date. Once I started ignoring the ''Assassins Creed'' on the box and just played it like it didnt belong into the series, it actually became one of my favorite games of all time. If you just play it like the AC doesnt exist, the game is amazing and probs to Kassandras Voiceactor, even in german they did an amazing job portraying her well. For me its a hard to say ''Which is the better game'' as both games in my opinion sort of play and feel similar, Odyssey is (just like you mentioned for yourself) one of my comfort games, i'd even go as far as saying that Odyssey is underrated. If it goes to which is the better assassins creed; Origins, no doubt. Its in my top 3 favorite ACs, with AC2 being No1 and Syndicate being No2. But I do admit that the game gets alot of hate for no real reason, had they just not printed ''Assassins Creed'' on the box, and sold it as a standalone, Odyssey wouldve overall been loved for what it is much more, but that might just be me. Very informative video and i do share pretty much all your opinions on them. Keep it up, much love

I can see why Odyssey is usually the least favorite for guys but as a female, it is my favorite because it gets away from the stereotypical AC platform and playing as Kassandra gives you many emotional moments that cannot be matched in the other games. Plus, historic time frames and locations has to come into play and again…as a female, the setting for Odyssey has more overall beauty than the other games. Just my opinion. ❤️

Depend on if you like Egyptian mythology greek mythology or Viking mythology

How about ranking Animuses' "whiterooms"(memory rooms,loading screens, you know what I mean)

Odyssey is my favorite ac game even though I just got it today

Them both are good

i used to like origins more now i like odyssy more because of more content in same price point and the plot when i found out who ghost of cosmos was shock me (not telling who it is)

odyssey miles better, the gameplay is funnier and the secondary missions are not some boring shit. also the world is richer for things to do, and has more endings giving more choices to the player. but nostalgic people would say origins because "odyssey ain't an assassin's creed"

I dug BOTH games (idk why it's sacrilegious to say that among the Fandom).. "Origins" is just better in pacing, story and size.

I'm addicted to odyssey

people keep saying origins better but there's a reason why among the newer trilogy Odyssey has more player count on steam even to this day than the other 2. Odyssey just more fun to play and have better replayability with it's build crafting.

Bought origin finally so happy🤗

Origins is the better game and Assassin's Creed story. Ptolemaic Egypt as a setting is just way more vibrant somehow than Greece, which really only has Athens and Crete as very diverse areas

As as storyline game and character development? Orgins all the way. As an open world and side activities ? Odyssey

Can’t give odyssey slack bc I’m of the choice bc rdr 2 also had choices and multiple endings

Origins wins for me. I enjoy Egypt more, Bayek is a better protagonist, and the game doesn't feel too bloated and as grindy. It's probably my second or third favorite game in the series after 2 and Brotherhood.

World setting - Odyssey Better story - Origins Protagonist - Bayek Side quests - Odyssey * To me, both are great world settings, but Odyssey stands up for me with the DLCs. *Overall story is far better in Origins, and I mostly enjoyed Odyssey's story and mainly its's DLCs. *I mostly played with Kassandra 300+ hours, great protagonist, brilliant voice acting, but Bayek has the better character development, emotions, and of course, creation of hidden ones. *When it comes to side quests, I go with Odyssey because I loved those side quests, and i completed them all. Philosphy with Socrates, Alkebiades quests, naval combats, Mythological quests including Minatour, Medusa, Cyclops, Daughters of artemis and etc. Even Barnabas had a great story with side quests Overall, my winner is AC Origins, and I love it, but as a student who studies greek and roman history, Odyssey helps me a lot. I'm still playing Odyssey with discovery tour.

I played both. Odyssey is definitely the most fun and more beautiful game

Protagonist: Origins Open world: Odyssey Side characters: Odyssey(Stentor still sucks, he dosent count) Sound track: Origins Modern day: Odyssey Story: Origins Dlc: Origins Origins for me. But curse of the pharaohs was mid.

Origins has just about everything you'd want. Great story, epic setting, good gameplay, awesome characters. Only real downfalls are the villains and parkor. Odyssey has a great setting and missions. Story and characters are a bit underwhelming tho at times

I played through Origins twice, I could t bring myself to finish Odyssey. I was open to the gameplay changes in Origins, but they went too far on open world in Odyssey. Not to mention that Odyssey is about when the writing took a nose dive.

300hr for each game, even if i love Ac Unity and Black Flag, because im too young for playing the release of the first AC and nostalgia cant affect me for the first trilogy games. Origins and Odyssey, cant compare these games, great rpg with more or less AC vibe in it. Its juste an experience and i like both. Maybe these mythological atmosphere, the context, i cant tell. But, my favorite AC, assasins game, is Unity, the top of the top after all patch of course 😂

Odyssey FTW. On my 3rd New game plus. Over 500 hours played on hardest difficulty level,

Both my favourite games but I love ac odyssey Kombat system more

Odyssey

rank dlcs

Origins in my opinion much better than Odyssey, already the story, the setting ancient Egypt "I love Greek too, but Egypt is above", the gameplay they are perfect to marry the ancient formula with the news was excellent, the open world was very interesting, the characters, the Aya-Bayek couple and the soundtrack, in fact here it is Origins it makes Assassin's Creed and for me one of the best. Odyssey and not bad far from it but it's too much a separate game, the game was basically planned to be a Spin-off of the lisence, in fact the only thing that bothers me with Odyssey is the name Assassin's Creed, after all no It's not a bad game, it's an excellent Greek simulation.

I’d go with odyessy tbf personal choice though

there was also a side quest in assassins creed odyssey where you would retrieve items to make jewelry for a little girl and her "friends" which in reality were made of clay. You had two options and you could tell the girl to make actual friends or to keep making clay friends which would probably keep her lonely until she makes real friends on her own. In my opinion, that mission is odyssey was pretty sad to me.

Im surprised how good it is. I thought its gonna be like your average ac games. Like syndicate and unity. Which is my least favorite of ac games. I really like the combat, tho its not perfect.. But better than auto kill chain of previous ac games. There's a challenging aspect to the combat in origins.. And the story is quiet good. And people say that the map is quiet big.. And for me.. Its really not that big. I finish everything within 2 weeks.

As an archaeologist, I can just not get over the size of the gladii in Origins, reminds me of inflated toy swords. Plus I do not like desert settings, so the game had to depart from my PC after receiving its fair shot and unsurprisingly not being up my alley.
