Assassin's Creed Origins

I'm a sucker for AC as well. The thing I;m most looking forward to is a potential return to those massive climbing puzzle-like things that we had in the earlier iterations. It does look very much like a reskin though.

Thanks, I just tried watching the Ubi conference and that was all I could imagine :rolleyes:

The more I see of this the more it interests me, liking the look of the RPG elements.

I keep playing these in the hope (don't read if you haven't completed the last few from 3 on wards):

they bring back Desmond or at least that side of the story. What was going on with the Gods and modern day Assassin's? I know I'm wasting my time but I live in hope!

Yeah, I know it will be the same crap all over again, dull, repetitive etc. but I will play it just for the setting alone. Just as usual.

They have made too many of these. If this was the 3rd or 4th in the series, everyone would be gagging for this. But it's not. it's the 10th (I think)

Rids · 16 Jun 2017 at 08:01

Yeah I'm going to be all over this.

To be fair I know they have become repetitive, but 2 out of the last 3 have been pretty awesome. I loved Black Flag, and I really enjoyed Syndicate although that might have been for the London setting.

I am purely playing these for the different time periods now, after the Ezio story concluded I haven't felt anything for the series, apart from Black Flag which took me by surprise considering I didn't really like the ship fights from AC3.

BuffetSlayer · 28 Jun 2017 at 06:20

I think I am possibly different to the average AC player in that I havent played really any of them other than the first few missions of syndicate and a few hours of brotherhood on the 360.

I own black flag and unity but have never played them.

So perhaps I am new enough to the series to be gripped by origins.

I appreciate how some of you feel though - I experience the exact same kimd of 'boredom' with Lego games! I have played every one through except the last couple of recent ones. I just cant face it anymore! Lol

What're the PS4 Pro enhancements for this game?

ScarySquirrel · 26 Oct 2017 at 13:07

My copy should be arriving today, I would have bought it anyway but it's good to see the reviews are positive so far.

kinger8938 · 26 Oct 2017 at 13:18

7/10 on gamespot. I watched the review and it looks to have a great setting and world but looks like all the usual little AC issues remain

ScarySquirrel · 26 Oct 2017 at 13:45

85 on Metacritic so far, much better than Syndicate and Unity, both of which I enjoyed.

theonejat · 26 Oct 2017 at 15:16

This and Odyssey coming tomorrow. Love the idea of the Egypt setting, hope they've pulled it off.
