Assassin's Creed Odyssey Standard Edition - PlayStation 4

Another excellent game to add to my growing collection of PS4 games. Got on sale and I can’t wait to play it.

This game is so very similar to Origins. I would say in some ways the graphics are better, but not by much. Mainly the non-important characters look better, and the audio work and voice acting seems slightly better, as well as the videos for quests seem to have better pacing. The game has a huge map and a lot of side missions like Origins to keep you from going through the main storyline to fast, and some of them are actually fun. Combat is of course repetitive, but also quite immersive and fun. I like riding horses, using The Eagles, hunting animals, riding on the boats, and much more to do in the game. Also, the water looks amazing, and there are even sharks and whales in the ocean. The HDR and world is so beautiful and breath taking.

The graphics are out of this world. I also like the storyline.

As a long Assassins' Creed fan, and after Origins - this was a welcome treat. The large world, characters you meet, and ability to again play a male or female role is just the beginning. I sunk 100 hours into the game + Season Pass. Thoroughly enjoyed, enough to pick up Valhalla. Pros: Large Overworld Wide skill tree Many Weapons Set, etc Cons: Some side quests can get grindy Quests can feel repetitive. In a game this big, sometimes it's better to pick and choose what you'll do, but you will have fun, I know I did.

I struggled to finish many AC games except Black Flag which I absolutely loved. Odyssey is as good if not better than Black Flag. I put in 100 hours plus on it and forced myself to play something else after. Do yourself a favor and play as Cassandra as I believe it provides a better gaming experience.

I was pleasantly surprised by how big this world is and the massive number of quests that you can choose to complete (or not!). I am 20 hours into the game and I am still roaming around the islands in awe and might have only completed about 10% of the story mode. Whenever you are heading to a story quest you will be distracted by a side quest nearby and I will always choose to do the side quests because they are fun. From helping a lone stranger to helping entire nations to fight battles, Odyssey has it all. There has been alot of fuss about the microtransactions in the game and I think they are coming from people who are not interested in the side quests and just want to move on with the story. Ubisoft created this massive world for us and to not engage in the side quests is really a waste of their efforts. I have no problem of leveling up using in-game xp as of now and have never visited the store to purchase any packs. if you want to get lost in a massive open world and climb on to the statue of Zeus, get this game! It's simply awesome.

Great, entertaining & fun game. Action is fun whether I’m spamming or using one of the many combos. Only downside might be how big the map is & so I spend a lot of time traveling when trying to 100%. Traveling is managed pretty well for the main story tho

Awesome game , I think its one of the best ac games,very fun and a very chip price
