Your thoughts on Assassins Creed: Odyssey? | Forums

[Swailing]

Assassin's Creed games are made simultaneously with different teams accepting and handing over responsibility for different aspects of the games.

An extra year every time would be excellent for any game made by one by one: Dishonored, The Last of Us, and so on. Development of each AC game is roughly 4-5 years, so when we had that year break, they all got that extra year of development. If you included an extra year every year, some games would receive far too much development and some too little (because eventually you'd have to compress schedules again).

Also, in about 2-3 years we'll have the PS5/XB2 generation. It would not make much sense for a game to get 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 years of development when the hardware it would eventually launch on is as yet unknown. There needs to be a decent but optimally short development time on the game that finally launches for the next gen, so that it's flexible to be tuned to those new consoles' abilities.

Completely agree with you @Tartaluxos . But as you know some people will always cry & complain . I was happy with Origins settings & now will pre-order Odyssey bcoz I'm totally fine with AC Odyssey .

you knew the main character is Layla........ the MD was ALWAYS the main story of the series with the historical part being its own story you knew that how this is an AC game. If your just an casual fan that its ok but for me that Layla seams to have a more central role in this game means a lot PLUS they will NOT change a thing in 5 months like relay .....

More like 3 years. Only origins take more time to make. But it take 3 years to make an AC game.

It doesn't matter. The point is still the same: when we had the one year break, the next games for years to come also got an extra year. They can pause the series a couple of times per decade to have the same effect.

I love the new setting for these A.C. Game and it's again something new and fresh and Ian sure there is a other perspective to the AC Lore!

One thing that I have seen into these Gameplay footage and I don't like are: the Helmets (or the Headgear) are gone into the conversations between other NPC's.... these destroys a little bit the immersion for me - they should fix this before the Release (Origins made that perfect if you wear your Hood up)!

I also hope there will be a option to give Alexios a full Spartan Beard - this point is my biggest wish for this Game!

I'm not sure if this is necessarily where it's going, but it's some interesting food for thought.

At the very least, I think there are options.

I agree with the article. I mean the ennemy in AC odyssey, will be the cult of kosmos and Kosmos in ancient greek mean 3 things: universe, ornament and Order. If it's the origins of the order of the ancient or what we call the templar, it will make sense with the time period and what we know now. I mean this game will have a nation controle system.

Have they at least announced a delay yet to rework this disaster? Maybe freaking consult Ashraf Ismail.

If thats true then there are questions for me:

Both characters we can play are spartans right?

And they help sparta to get more influence in several territories right?

Doesnt that make them to templars at the end of the game according to the theories?

If yes it doesnt make sense to mee since it looks like they fight for freedom in the gameplay footage.
