Okay overall. Story is pretty good and is carried by Bayek and Aya's performances. But everything else suffers from growing pains of the new rpg direction. Combat tends to fall into floatiness and jank, and the story pacing does not mesh well with forced sidequests every couple of levels. I enjoyed odyssey way more, which felt much more suited to being a long game, while origins feels like 15 hour old style AC stretched into a 30 hour rpg.
