Malaka;

Odyssey is truly a long and adventurous journey


⏰ How long to beat Assassin's Creed: Odyssey:
- Main Story - 43½ Hours
- Main + Extras - 83 Hours
- Completionist - 137 Hours

By this point, this is the longest Assassin's Creed I've played to date, with over what I was hoping to be. The world itself is massive, and you will spend close to what I've spent, if not more, if you want to repeat the game on Game Plus on the other character (Kasandra or Alexios).

In the beginning, the game felt nothing like Assassin's Creed and the whole direction really left me feeling a bit empty as I didn't click right away with Alexios. It took me at least 50 hours into the game to get used to him and how he was as a character to later in the game actually appreciate, value and really like who he has become.

The main campaign was nice, but what really topped up my entire enjoyment was the DLC's that I will be talking about later in this review.

⚔ Gameplay:

🔲 It's a one-time experience
☑️ Only for achievements
🔲 If you wait a few months/years (try playing with mods)
🔲 Definitely
🔲 Infinitely replayable

The game contains a lot of side quests and side missions that will keep you engaged for over 150 hours if you're a completionist. If you want to replay the game, you can seek the Game Plus after you finish the whole game, but unless you want to see the alternative, I don't see why you'd want to do it.
The game itself expands on the previous instalment AC: Origins, intending to upgrade it. Unfortunately for me, I feel that Origins was a superior game in terms of gameplay as I enjoyed more the setting and the skills in the game early in the game.

😄 Fun:

🔲 I'd rather watch paint dry
🔲 Hard to enjoy
☑️ Repetitive
☑️ Actually pretty amusing
🔲 The kind of fun you'll remember
🔲 Ride of your life

As a big fan of the series and of the RPG genre, I can say that I have enjoyed this game more and more as deeply as I got into the game. I really believe that Odyssey needs time on for players to fully value the work Ubisoft has put into and ignore the fact that it no longer aligns with the direction once Assassin's Creed became.

It keeps the old elements of Parkour and assassinations but doesn't expand on them, yet this game really does a great job with the beautiful world and lore behind it.

If you love Greek Mythology, you will find this game fascinating to explore and enjoy. I know I sure did.

🏞 Graphics:

🔲 MS Paint
🔲 Bad
🔲 Meh
🔲 Graphics don't matter in this game
🔲 Good (nothing special)
☑️ Beautiful
🔲 Masterpiece

The graphics of this game are gorgeous, and I needed to upgrade my PC's CPU to play it to its fullest details fully. The world is gorgeously crafted, and I can't give credit enough to Ubisoft for the beautiful work.

🔊 Sound:

🔲 Makes your ears bleed
🔲 Bad
☑️ Not special
🔲 Good
🔲 Beautiful
🔲 Masterpiece

I felt that as the new RPG era progressed, the whole world felt a bit bland and not so much alive. I can't say that I fully enjoyed the music and the ambient sounds of this world, but it's not bad either. Voice acting can sometimes feel off, but that's because this game contains hundreds of characters that needed voice acting, and I can understand that this may be why sometimes it feels like it could have spent more time in the oven.

📖 Story:

🔲 This game has no story
🔲 Like playing Temple Runners for the story
🔲 It's there for the people who want it
🔲 Well written
☑️ Epic story
🔲 Masterpiece

Without spoiling anything, I'd like to point out that this game takes time to grow on you regarding the story. It does a great job at creating emotions between you and characters along the way, and with the 3 DLC's you are bombarded with beautiful finishing touches of the great story.

I felt most intrigued playing the DLC's because they were topping down on areas of the game that left me craving to know more about Alexios's story, and I appreciate that.

I can tell you that despite the criticism regarding the direction the game takes you, on its own, you will enjoy it. The most enjoyable part of all the other Assassin's Creed's I've played is that your decisions actually matter.

🧵 Length:

🔲 Long enough for a cup of coffee
🔲 Short
🔲 Average
☑️ Long (if u can even finish it)
🔲 To infinity and beyond

According to Ubisoft Connect 188 hours, the game took me, but Steam recorded 283. It's a long game, and at some point, it felt like it was never-ending. I thought I could finish it a lot sooner, but the long journeys between objectives and if you're a completionist like myself, you'll spend about the same time.

I wish it would be shorter.

💷 Price:

🔲 Free
🔲 Underpriced
☑️ Perfect Price
☑️ Could be cheaper
🔲 Overpriced
🔲 Complete waste of money

Depending on the Edition you want to buy the game under, it can get pretty pricy. I recommend getting the Ultimate Edition through a Sale, as it's a bit too much. Do know that by spending less than £40, you will be spending a lot of time in the game. If you love the world and all, you'll feel that the price for the game is just perfect as you got a lot of content to explore.

🧩 Difficulty:

🔲 My 90-year-old grandma could play it
🔲 Easy
☑️ Normal
☑️ Hard
🔲 Dark Souls (if u play with bell demon and charmless it's extremely hard)

At times the game can spike in difficulty, especially with the issue of Level differences. You will find yourself struggling with enemies that are levels above you, but as you get better at the game and unlock skills and better gear, you can expect to dominate the battlefield even when facing foes 5-10 levels than you.

I don't want to brag, but I have managed to defeat an enemy ten levels above me, with a few trials and errors. So, if you're persistent, you can do it too.

⚖ Pros & Cons:

➕ Pros:
+ The World is Gorgeous and you'll have a lot to explore.
+ If you're a fan of Mythology or Greek Mythology, you'll love this game.
+ The story with the DLC's are nicely written, even though it focuses less on the ideology of Assassin's Creed.
+ You get to have a lot of items and gear to mix around and play.
+ Some romantic moments here and there, and you can enjoy them all.

➖ Cons:
- It's not what Assassin's Creed used to be, and this may be a turn off for some fans.
- Too long; I really wish it would be shorter.
- The world and the people may seem big, but sometimes I wish the cities felt more alive.
- Voice acting can be quite poor at times and can kick you out of the emersion.
- I wish the main story Cultists were a lot more similar to what the DLC (Legacy of the First Blade) did to give them a lot more reason behind being in the cult; only a few of them get that treatment.

⚙ Bugs:

🔲 Never heard of
☑️ Minor bugs
🔲 Can get annoying
🔲 ARK: Survival Evolved
🔲 The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs

I've encountered a few visual bugs here and there, but nothing that would bother me. I've got a couple of crashes in my entire playthrough. I would think about 5-6 in total. Not too serious. The game sometimes gets overwhelmed and simply crashes for me. That was more often when my CPU bottlenecked my GPU.

⭕Conclusion:
AC Odyssey is a beautiful assassin's creed game that focuses more and more on the lore of the Cultists (Templars) and their origins. While AC Origins focused on the beginning of the hidden ones, Odyssey focuses more on the begging of the Cult to create a reason behind it.

If you want to explore a gorgeous world filled with mystery, mythology and magic, you may enjoy Odyssey a lot more than you think.
