    Came late

    Came late to the party, played about 10-15 hours and the game feels soulless

    I mean, the game looks gorgeous. Greece lends itself to storytelling and myth and enchanting little secrets. Instead, there's a bunch of "THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAA" cliches and repetitive copy-paste content. I will advance the story-line more and see what happens. Also, inventory management has already become a chore. And, bounty hunters is the most annoying mechanic I've encountered. It's become even more annoying than it was in Origins. I wish we could turn it off.

    I don't mean to disparage the game. We'll see. However, I've just (well, a few months ago) finished Origins and that game was so good. It had soul. It had a good story. Bayek was likeable (Kassandra is fine, but her ethics are... questionable at best) and had such a good motivation.

    sigh

    It does not pan out...

    I am a bit further in the story, it's a generic "cult is after us", soulless nothing. The bounty hunters are really annoying. Every "boss" enemy, is just a bullet sponge. Their real strength is their billion hitpoints. I wish I could get a refund.

    For me, there are definitely more pros than minuses. The first thing I noticed was the graphics - it is on a really high level. I really like that the wal system has been enhanced with new moves and skills. A big plus is that they even battles on land and at sea. I missed it in previous versions.

    Trouble with demontage

    Hello,

    What a super game! Graphics gameplay and actions are really next level. In my opinion.

    Only question I have.. I can’t recycle some items like swords and helmets. When I look in my inventory, the one I can’t recycle are all level 5.

    Please help.

    Thanks!
