Finished Odyssey Thursday night clocked in at 89 hours and 7 minutes and honestly it’s gotta be my favorite AC ever. I know it was an extremely polarizing game but I jus walked away from that s*** floored. The fact it’s so well polished while being so massive blew my mind every single time I turned the game on and my admiration for the craft alone makes me give it a 10. Graphics also have to easily be in my top 5 of all time but I was playing on a One X on a nice 4K TV. Sure some side quests were repetitive and whatnot but they’re OPTIONAL side quests and the universe they created is such a dope environment to be in that I never once minded. Found myself sad when it was all over. You spend so much time in such a well crafted universe and it starts feeling like a second home. Will always remember this game.
Honestly dont think they should ever make a new one
Odyssey was fun but that's about the extent the fantasy parts of the game should go and theyve already had like 7 semi realistic games.
Going to full on RPG was the best thing this franchise ever did. Origins was great and Odyssey took everything good about Origins and made it better. Amazing game. Looking forward to the next one
Just platinumed and 100% completed Odyssey. Took me 175 hours. Incredible game
Probably my favourite time period they've done, and Alexios is easily my second favourite assassin after Ezio
Wish there was more elements of the actual creed in it though. It's always been my favourite aspect of the franchise and there's hardly any of it in this one.
Replayed Origins (never completely beat it) recently and it was fun af
such a beautiful game
The viking game aka Kingdom is rumoured to be announced at ps5 February reveal. A bunch of ubisoft community members went to MTL recently for a “super secret” visit so this aligns up with the rumours

I agree, to an extent. I wouldn't call Odyssey 'amazing', but the progression from Origins to Odyssey was positively noticeable. E.G. the supporting cast of characters: Odyssey offered the likes of Leonidas, Deimos, Barnabus -- none are amazingly crafted or anything, but I can't even remember any character outside of Bayek and his wife in Origins.
Now if they've taken this year off to fix the pacing, remove all the pay-to-win Ubisoft garbage, and fixed (and by fixed I mean pretty much remove) all modern day references, this game could be something great. Let's not hold our breath on that, though.
Used to love this franchise. Stopped after Odyssey. Wish they made more interesting storylines like Desmond/Al Tair/ Ezio
