Assassin's Creed: Origins (2017 Video Game)
5/10
"RPG mechanics so hot right now" - probably someone at Ubisoft's HQ
27 July 2020
After the huge success RPG games have lately made Ubisoft is ready to completely disconnect new AC games from its original game structure and shove a RPG mechanics inside a game that was based on social stealth.

The difficulty of the game is heavily based on your character's level, even when being overleveled you are still matched with damage-sponge enemies. Stealth approach is completely changed, assassinations can no longer kill enemies which is ironic for a game called Assassins Creed. Map is overwhelming and its locations are repeated more than enough with the exception of few camps and tombs that are connected to side quests.

As hinted in the title the story is about the origins of AC, yet there is very little about it and its complete story is in a DLC. The main game is focused more on the main character's journey which is another typical revenge plot but for an AC game his story is actually interesting enough to follow to the very end.
