It’s a great game for who likes a single player. Uncountables missions and come back the old style Assassin’s Creed.

I've played all the Assassin's Creed games minus the spin-offs and Assassin's Creed Origins is one the of the best of in the series. It compares to the likes of Assassin's Creed 2, Brotherhood, and Black flag. Graphics: I have a PS4 Pro and the graphics are amazing on a 4k TV. Not as good as Horizon Zero Dawn's graphics but it comes close. Gameplay: The combat has been revamped is more akin to The Witcher 3 then the Batman Arkham games which in my opinion is for the better. Positive changes made to the game is not having to hold down the right trigger to run and being able to freely aim and move with a projectile weapon (the bow and arrow in this game) just by holding down the left trigger. This was not possible in the previous games. Swimming has improved and the character is now able to dive and explore under water. The free running (parkour) is pretty much the same as the previous games. Basic RPG elements from previous Ubisoft games like the Division, Ghost Recon Wildlands, and Far Cry have been applied to this game. There is a skill tree to unlock new abilities which is earned by completing mission, side mission and defeating enemies. Also there is a loot system for different weapons and sheilds. Weapons, shields and armor can be upgrade by collecting materials. The eagle vision has been removed and is replaced with an actual eagle who can be controlled to survey an area to mark enemies, location, activies, etc. Also there are a variety of animals that can be hunted. Many of which will attack the player if approached or provoked. The map is huge, beautiful, and varied!!!! There is plenty of activities and random to do so the world does not feel empty. The negative things I have to say about the game is the AI isn't really that smart and stealth mechanics need to be improved. The stealth is decent but for a game about assassins, being stealthy it is not as fun as just running straight into battle. Being in combat can get tense from being surrounded by multiple enemies who are aggressive especially on the higher diffculty settings. Stealth scenarios for me usually turn out with me waiting in high grass, a bush, or hay while waiting for the enemy to pass by to assassinate. Ubisoft should have the developers of Splinter Cell work on the stealth. Story: As for the story, I really enjoyed it and was better then expected. If you want to know about the story then..................play the game or watch it on youtube. I don't like spoilers and would not want to spoil it for anyone else. Conclusion: With everything said this is a great game and is definitely worth a buy.
