Narrative is lacking, but you are forced to do boring side quests (ALL quests are "go there, kill that guy", all of them) to match main quest missions' levels and it goes on all the game through. The game puts you in a very realistic world, it makes you feel like you are there, able to explore and to "live it", but then it makes everything possible to continuously break the immersion. Also very annoying when you kill a major objective and a "visionary" cutscene starts (if you played the game you know what I'm talking about). narrative is boring, in particular when it comes to side-quests. the world being truly open but you can't explore since enemies are way stronger than you, making the open-world mechanic wrong (it's not open if you can't explore)

enemies' AI both when in open combat (they jump and fall from stairs for no reason) and stealth AC's signature weapon: hidden blade mechanic: if the enemy is 2 level higher than you a stealthy blade in his throath doesn't kill him game feeling like a continuous matching between character's level, equipment's level and missions' levels drone-eagle, the most stupid mechanic I've ever seen in any videogame, it's not even narratively justified we finally have a "new desmond" giving sense to the animus stuff and templar vs assassins in present time (not that good though) voice acting in a lot of languages (english is way better than my mothertongue's VO, though) combat system (far from being perfect, but it's not bad)

bayek's running animation (4 different speeds depending on stick's inclination, great) reconstruction of ancient Egypt, the map is pretty empty but in a realistic way, it really feels like you're there graphics, only second to RDR2 for open-world games, water is even better Yes, I'm playing AC: Origins and it's sooooo boring.įirst, I'd like to highlight its good aspects, because there's something good in that game:
