This is the best Assassins Creed game I've played in a long while. The visuals are stunning, the map is huge, and they really have created a great world this time. They really should stick with the two year release time lines. The story is pretty good, though there is so much to do i've sometimes had a hard time remembering what the heck im doing a quest for.
They have done away with being able to go wherever you want, in Origins the map is divided into zones. Each zone has recommended levels. If you are level 5 and you walk into a level 20 zone, you are going to get destroyed, no matter how well you've mastered the fighting mechanics. Likewise, if you are lvl 20 and you go back to a lvl 5 zone, you are going to feel like a god. To add in some good measure in some zones they have added in Phylakes which are high level bounty hunters looking just for you. They add in a challenge when you think there is non and makes you always have to be aware of your surroundings.
The combat is also different, instead of just endlessly countering everything (which every good Ass Creed has used so far) which is a breath of fresh air. There are tons of different weapons, bows, and gear to use now. And they have different levels so you do change them fairly often. You have to charge your attack to break an enemies defense or shield. Gone are the days where if you're surrounded by enemies will only one attack at a time... They will all jump you now, and you will die.
Besides that you get a little eagle buddy, that can mark enemies for you ala Far Cry.

Fraud! Misleading product description.
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2020
Not as advertised, the picture the company is using is not accurate of product. Fraud, bait and switch! Upper left corner shows a bonus I would receive but the game I received does not have it. They are not displaying a picture of the actual product you will receive. Buyer beware!
