So far, the game is excellent. Easy to play. More open world. I like Assassins Creed games and Odyssey adds to that.

The most expansive Assassin's Creed yet recreates Ancient Greece in all its glory but can a game be too big for its own good

Gorgeous scenery and massive open world map; More interesting story and characters than usual and new features like conquest battles and lieutenants work well; Mountains of content

The game often seems far too big for its own good, with a leaden pace and repetition that wouldn't have been so obvious if the game weren't so long; Mediocre combat and stealth; The usual bugs

Bought this as a gift for an experienced gamer, who has told me that, in their opinion, this has to be one of the best games ever! Quite a statement! Firstly a few minor niggles though.

I received this as a Christmas present along with Just Cause 4, which I played for an hour and haven't touched since! unlike AC Odyssey...which I have played nearly everyday since.

I bought this for my son recently and he really loves it

Similar to Origins but greatly expanded upon. This world is massive and engaging. With hours upon hours of gameplay already, I haven't even uncovered an eighth of the map. Black flag style gameplay is key in Odyssey, even to reach far away islands.

Assassin's Creed Origins was a huge triumph for Ubisoft. After releasing a game once a year (sometimes three, even) for seven years, the Assassin's Creed brand was suffering. Origins was a breath of fresh air in pretty much every aspect, and I was content with where the franchise was.

Strong Story; Greece Is Beautiful; Dynamic Gameplay; Streamlined Abilities

Conquest Battles; Slow Opening; No Codex

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is going to be many things, to many people. For me, it's the first time in the series that the hardest difficulty setting -- Nightmare in this case -- has truly taken me to my limits in both execution of skill, patience and in managing frustration.

Good game but after awhile it gets somewhat repetitive. Worth the play but maybe not at full price. This is my opinion though!

Just a year on from the major action RPG overhaul of Assassin's Creed Origins, you'd be forgiven for expecting Assassin's Creed Odyssey to simply retread the same ground. It's building on those ideas, certainly, but with the introduction of dialogue choices and a branching story, a choice between...

Visually stunning; Story choices add more depth; Faster combat; Skills make combat feel more dynamic; Piracy on the high seas; Climbing on the penis of a giant Greek statue

It might actually be; Numerous loading times and other technical issues; Voice acting weirdness; A bit repetitive
