The Making of Assassin's Creed: 15th Anniversary (Deluxe Edition)

Product Information

While Assassin’s Creed games are known for their open-ended design, Odyssey truly offers multiple ways to approach almost every situation. And then there’s the awesome naval combat (among the very best in the franchise). You can spend hours just sailing around and customizing your ship. Purslow, Matt (September 11, 2022).

Story is vital across this sprawling beautiful world and everything you do here feels like it genuinely matters. Whether that’s experiencing the glorious mini world events, selecting an Ealdorman for a county, or crashing your longship onto a beach and blowing your horn before pillaging to your heart’s content. This campaign is a true saga too, full of characters who’ll sneak into your heart whether you want them to or not, making every region and adventure a genuine risk. Stopping to take in the scenery is an ideal way to exercise your screenshot button and appreciate the incredible world-building but also compose yourself for the next potentially emotional narrative pummeling. Having retrieved the Apple from Columbus' burial vault, the Templars convene at a ceremony in their London sanctuary to celebrate their triumph. Inside the sanctuary, a disillusioned Sofia meets Cal, who has come to take the Apple, and she reluctantly allows him to act. Cal retrieves the Apple, killing Alan in the process. As Sofia vows revenge, the Assassins depart, swearing once again to protect the Apple from the Templars.While still awarding the game decent scores, several publications cited a number of significant shortcomings. Michael Donahoe of 1Up.com gave it a B- for the story concept but felt more could have been done, writing "it's apparent that these grandiose ideas may have been a little too much to master the first go-round. ... at least the groundwork is laid for a killer sequel." [41] Eurogamer stated that the gameplay "never evolves and ultimately becomes a bit boring, and quite amazingly repetitive." [51] Hyper 's Darren Wells commended the game for its "great story, great graphics and intuitive controls". At the same time, he criticised it for "some missions that don't feel right on the PC and its loopy menu system." [52] Hilary Goldstein of IGN gave the game a 7.5/10 ("Good"), stating that "a bad story, repetitive gameplay elements, and poor AI lead to the downfall of one of the more promising games in recent memory." Conversely, he complimented the combat animations and the climbing mechanic, and admired how accurately Ubisoft depicted the major cities of Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus to their real-life counterparts. [42] In Andrew P.'s mixed review for Electronic Gaming Monthly, he wrote that the game features "a challenging parkour path of escape", and while intriguing, it is "an incomplete template based on multiple other games".
