I dunno why people say it's awesome & it's feels like AC again. I get that they enjoy it, but nothing can be more far from truth than saying it's AC game.
At series' core lies:
- Parkour
- Arcade stealth (Not really good, but you are supposed to be stealthy in general, it never was nor tried to be Thief)
- Discovering interesting points of past through animus to safe modern times & conspiracy theory
- Gameplay was heavily focused around cities
What of that is in Odyssey?
- Parkour is just a margin activity, animations of climbing look like shit, game was obviously not developed with it in mind
- Game is almost anti-stealth, I am not sure if there's even one mission where we kill major enemy with stealth. You are constantly discouraged to do it. Even ship sailing game as Black Flag relied heavily on
- I know most people didn't like Modern Times, but at least it was coherent story. Now I am not sure who's supposed to like this new MD, main antagonist of series (7+games!) was killed off-screen in comic (sic!), noone likes new modern character and writers obviously don't care about it. This is a lose-lose situation, clear sign of incompetence and lack of direction.
- Cities weren't as important as before starting with AC3, but this was still serious matter that came back with Unity (and everybody liked to have big city again). Now cities are generic locations with little importance, game focuses around free running in the wilds.
This game only looks like AC, has its name and is in the same universe. Everything else changed. Now it's different game of different genre based on different things. Not suprising people who hate AC like this one, it's not AC game.
I am outraged that people say it's true AC, fucking retards that spoil everything that's fun. I hope they choke on this shit after Ubisoft farms this new game model for next 10+ games.
Fucking cunts, burn in hell. I already see Odyssey selling the same/more than Origins. Additionaly this game treats players as retards and allows them to "Safe time" through microtransactions.
I actually respect Ubisoft beceause of this, they design the game to be grindfest/boring, make people buy it and then encourage them to "safe time" by paying even more.
Make them pay to avoid doing what they paid for in the first place, this is definitely the most retarded timeline. I am not even mad, just impressed.
Buying this game is immoral, you support the worst kind of disgusting business practices. Torrenting it is much better, you also won't need to pay for "true ending" that will be revealed through DLC.
