Y'know maybe it's just the way I played it that made it hard for it to click with me.
Since 2019 I've been installing it, playing it for a few hours then uninstalling it after I got bored, repeat that every few months... till today when I installed it. Played for 2 hours and beat it, it was inevitable I guess.
Anyways that's still 30 hours played so it's not like idk wtf the games about or how it plays so how is it?
It's okay. The game has a mediocre and forgettable story that wastes Bayek and his voice actor who really is the only saving grace for the story.
Also the prize for the most predictable revenge story goes to this game, as soon as I saw that Bayek had a kid I thought so is it gonna be one or 2 missions till he dies?I'm pretty sure it was one.
Ugh okay let's just get to the important part...gameplay is fine, combat is fine, it's just fine...idk what else to say about it because it's the type of game that's hard to really dislike because it's simply decent enough to be inoffensive, it never makes me feel anything while playing it neither positive nor negative. It's a decent enough time but I felt rather numb whenever I played it which is a first for this series.
I've both liked and disliked games in this series but it wasn't till Origins when I found one that just makes me feel no strong emotions about it.
Back in 2017 this must have been a breath of fresh air for the series, I still remember the hype for it, which weirdly enough died down when it came out so I just never bothered to pick it up for another 2 years. Nowadays most see it as the beginning of the end for the series, and I disagree because that was Syndicate but this was the start of what is arguably the series' worst eras.
So now I guess I'm done with Assassin's Creed? I beat all the one's I own, which is like all of them besides Valhalla. I enjoyed going through them, it took me a shockingly little amount of time to get through them tbh.
Anyways, I had fun playing and reviewing most of these games, maybe Origins will click with me someday but given how I felt about it, or rather how I didn’t feel about it, I can’t go higher nor lower than a 5/10.
