Assassin's Creed Odyssey Reviews
Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a stunning game - a gigantic beautiful recreation of Greece, with wonderful ship combat, smooth traversal and plenty of satisfying gameplay moments. Unfortunately numerous design decisions lead to a mix of frustrating gameplay with numerous glimpses of greatness. It's not perfect, but it undoubtedly offers plenty of the series' best.
The game looks stunning and beautiful and is truly a great sight to see when you`re playing.
One of the decades finest. You will soak up the game like the characters within it absorb the Mediterranean sun.
The writing is sharp and the action fun, but it is the stunning re-creation of another world that is this game's crown jewel
Solid Storytelling following outstanding historic events immerses players into a beautiful rendition of ancient Greece. Assassin's Creed Odyssey improves on its predecessors by providing seamless character selection and more advanced rpg elements, without compromising on its accessibility to action-focused players. Even if sometimes overwhelming in scale and possibly repetitive for those not completion-oriented, the game is worth full price given its polished delivery of unabashed entertainment.
This is an intimate tale of a broken family, and focusing on that story benefits the franchise as a whole greatly.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey is still an enjoyable game thanks to an intriguing storyline and one of the best graphics the series has ever seen. Sure it feels like Origins 2.0, although there is enough new content for Odyssey to stand out on its own. That being said, leveling up can be boring and some of the side quests get repetitive and boring after a while. Odyssey is still worth playing though if you can get used to its many flaws regarding its progression.
In Assassin's Creed Odyssey everything is at its place. The mythological story remains intriguing until the end and the dialogue choice system is a welcome addition. Gameplay is fun even with its flaws and the latest title in the series is a great opportunity to visit the ancient Greek.

While Assassin's Creed Odyssy has the least connection to the series' universe and Stealth is less present than ever, but story, characters and the world are one of the most memorable in the series. Of course, the forced side missions make the impact of the story less powerful

Assassin's Creed has dipped itself firmly in RPG mechanics and a wonderful new setting. It is as deep as it is wide and will keep you occupied for a very long time to come. It certainly fits the myths in which it is steeped.
Odyssey is no doubt the biggest game in the Assassin's Creed series, and could easily be considered the best one. Unfortunately the efforts to reshape an action game into an RPG were only partially successful. Ubisoft already checked off everything from a great atmosphere and a gigantic map to some cool gameplay mechanics, but narration and moral choices still do not deliver – Witcher 3 is still miles ahead.

Odyssey is a better, and certainly bigger, Assassin's Creed game than any before it. The sheer number of moving parts can be intimidating but this is a special adventure that must be savoured.
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is an impressively crafted open world action-RPG that challenges gamers to see and do everything it has to offer.
Odyssey takes Origins' formula and expands it to the point of nearly breaking.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey is worth checking out just for the vistas, but maybe set it to easy. Turn off "Exploration" mode. Skip the procedurally-generated quests. Don't play for too long at once. And if you try to dive deep, expect to hit bottom real fast.
This is the kind of game where you could wipe out days of time paying attention to one piece of the greater story, with the true joy coming when you get to take a step back and see the story you've built.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey is the finest the series has ever been, building on the role-playing roots laid down by Origins. An occasionally scruffy triumph of historical world-building, play and, perhaps most importantly, Grecian character.
There are still some rough spots then need addressing in future titles, and some of the new additions don't work as well as they should, but Odyssey sets a new bar for what an Assassin's Creed game can be.
