Assassin's Creed: History is your (glitched) Playground - Games

Though you can't do the reverse with child characters.

This Month in Assassin’s Creed® Origins – April | | Assassin's .. Alright this sounds pretty cool

is it worth the extra £10 for the dlc? does it integrate into the main game or is it separate? i havnt played AC since black flag so i think with the current sale id enjoy it a lot

Aside from additional costumes and gears and the free updates the game have recived (which are good and added several interesting and/or heavily requested features to the game, by the way), the two main DLCs for Origins are The Hidden Ones and Curse of the Pharaohs. Now, The Hidden Ones is a DLC you could totally skip. On paper, you are helping Bayek enstablishing the Hidden Ones Brotherhood further in Egypt while embarking on an epic quest to undermine the Roman forces in the Sinai region. In practice, however, you are put in a remarkably small new area, you get to assassinate some people you don't get to know at all in a shallow and quick "main questline", very few side quests and there aren't any gameplay novelties to speak of. I'd definitely not reccomend this and I was very disappointed. Curse of Pharaohs, on the other hand, is a worthy DLC, provided you can get past its very clear fantastic and outlandish nature (much on the same vein as Assassin's Creed III's The Tyranny of King Whasington). You are sent to the city of Thebes and the Valley of Kings on a (kinda good-ish) excuse plot to face the ghosts of fallen Pharaohs and their supernatural mooks who are terrorizing the land. The highlight of the DLC are random encounters like the Phylakes in the main game (only against the Pharaos) and additional boss fights against the titular Pharaohs, whith a welcomed increased level of challenge, and the opportunity to visit several afterlife scenarios from the Egyptian mythology, which are each unique, properly outlandish and, honestly, gorgeous. Aside from these new fantastic elements, the area around Thebes is sufficently large and features enough side stuff to do, if you like that kind of things My personal advice would be to buy Curse of the Pharaohs alone and call it a day. I bought the season pass (something I don't do often, by the way) as a way to congratulate the developers for a job well done on the main game, but The Hidden Ones really made me regret such a decision

thanks my friend said the opposite about the dlc's, i decided to buy just the base because i often dont complete games, if i m still enjoying it at the end ill buy the dlc next time its reduced

Then good bloody luck to you, because it took me roughly 35 hours to complete the main game, and I'm not a completitionist. Granted, the whole experience was incredibly good, but still ... That's far more time I'm called to spend in most of the roleplaying videogames I play

The next game in the series has apparently been leaked by a photo of the upcoming merchandise https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/225139/e60a622d-9dc4-439d-a470-057485e849c0/gUKnfgWurWzUgEXkadanQ9-650-80.jpg It's dubbed Assassin's Creed: Odyssey and, by the looks of it, the setting will be Ancient Greeche. I can't say for sure if the exact hystorical setting would be the classical period (Sparta's and Athen's golden age) or the Hellenistic period (which takes place between the death of Alexander the Great and the Roman conquest of the county). The latter would be extremely close to Origins' own setting, however, far too close. It seems like the classical education I've developed in high school will finally pay off somehow

God, Ubisoft has terrible security on their AssCreed games.

If that's true maybe they could go with another naval focused game but this time set in ancient Greece as you sail around all the Greek Islands and fight monsters and shit. Press R2 to tie self to mast to resist sirens.

The path infront of the Capitol Building in The Crew 2 looks a lot like the Assassin's logo https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/108621/2001275e-7a57-456f-8d1c-d93ba49c467b/image.png https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/108621/0f3a131b-b6f3-4ed6-b6b5-c5c01cc2800d/image.png

It's been a while since this thread was active, and I need to update the OP. But while I don't care as much as I wished about the recent antiquity-based games, I did see some news that made me jump with joy: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-09-13-ubisoft-outlines-assassins-creed-odysseys-extensive-post-launch-dlc An Assassin's Creed III remaster, bordering on remake. I'm so happy about this. It's my favorite game in the series, and they're gonna improve not only the visuals, but also the gameplay and hopefully fix all the little things that always brought it down. If this means more people start loving it as much as I do, then this makes me so glad. Well, then I'm off to replaying it right this minute.

Wow, I thought I was the only one

That game was so bad

Odyssey is out in a week. Damn

Played a bit of it. It's a damn shame it's poorly optimized. Averaging mid 50's to 70fps on ultra on my 2080

I assume it's a big CPU hog like Origins, if not worse?

I could barely play Origins with 660, I hope I won't have to upgrade for this one.

Did Obisoft fix Origins with a AMD Phenom II? The game wouldn't start for me and It I had to get a refund.

I'm currently considering buying Odyssey in the near future. I'm kinda confident that my PC should be able to run it smoothly, since I didn't have any problem at all with Origins. Then again, one can never be too careful, these days

What card do you have? I'm on a 2080 and barely able to hold 60-70 fps on max.

Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070. And that's worrisome, to be honest

I though the 2k series didn't run that much better then the 1k series anyways.

whoa my unity save works again. a few years back the game crashed while saving and wouldn't load in. I had an itching to play, so I tried it again and I was able to load in finally!! I can finally finish the expansion.

Dead Kings is pretty good, I wish Unity had more expansions.

Origin's main city hated my computer.

Honestly I don't know if you should even try man. It barely went above 30-40 on my i5-4590.

anyone else just get an invite to the google streaming thing? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/110042/73660559-718c-4f4b-8f33-fa2449f70b4e/chrome_2018-10-08_17-49-30.png even came with $10 credit towards the in-game micro-transaction store. only downside is that the save file is deleted in January so that's up to 3 months of gameplay down the drain

If it helps, I'm on an FX-8350 and GTX 1070ti, game runs reasonably well at 1440p with a handful of settings turned down to "High" instead of "Ultra". I average 40+ FPS, with occasional slowdown in more populated areas. The slowdown has not yet been significant enough to bother me.

God I'm enjoying Odyssey so far but they've went way too far in the "Everything is climbable!" direction, even more so than Origins, having to stop myself from just climbing fort walls and shimmying around killing everyone because it feels too easy =/
