Bad decision. I think Mirage brings the essence of the real AC vibe. Best ac game since unity.

Yeah, I think in the end - the real decision was between Origins/ Mirage only.. but I guess I wanted a flavour of what new things they tried in Origins.
I'm disappointed that there's no multiplayer apparently?

I've already beaten Origins and I'm currently playing Mirage. So far, Origins has been a lot more fun for me throughout the entire story line. Right now, I'm having a hard time trying to stick to playing Mirage. I'm only 7 hours into it. Gonna try to stick with it. GL in Origins!

Both Origins and Odyssey are great they bring a new style to AC Games. The world building is fantastic it feels like you have been transported back in time and Ancient Egypt/Greece both look amazing. Valhalla is good for the first 30 hours or so but becomes extremely repetitive and grindy - it is just too much of everything, the exact opposite of 'less is more'.

Mirage feels like a bit of a throwback to the original ac games, more confined less about rpg mechanics and combat and more about stealth.

This! Would also rec. Origins & Odyssey. maybe get also Mirage because its pretty short and more to the older games.

But Valhalla is pretty grindy and its stretches like chewing gum the longer u play haha

Last AC game with MP was black flag, that's the last 7 mainline AC games without it

[Orge Lambart]

Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla are all really large games with massive amounts of content 150+ hours easily. Mirage is a lot shorter and is more in line with older Assassins Creed's..

Ideally you'd buy all four of them as they build the overall story of Assassins' Creed.

While you can play each of them as a stand alone adventure, starting with Origins and playing through to Mirage follows a cohesive story line for the Modern day hidden ones.

Although it's not really that important if you follow the Modern day storyline as it's not really a big part of the games

[soul like that be capable of]

all of them if they on sale . i got all 3 when they cost pennies . never get AC game full price imo they all drop later and with dlc usually you can get 3 AC game for price of 60$

SO FINALLY!

The result is
I ended up refunding Origins and bought Assassin's Creed III remastered and Black Flag even tho I partially know their stories

I opened up Origins, I was fine with how it looked and all AND MY GOD THE MAP IS A JAW DROPPER.

But I just didn't like the way characters gave dialogue in a non immersive way. In the opening section when you're given a Camel-like animal to ride.. that part when I had to follow him and just the whole thing about the animal being so large and moving swiftly - - brotherhood had horses which gallop properly and had a certain realistic way of moving about.

And finally it was immersion breaking to see the guy talk about how people are distressed then proceeds to run over them with the Camel he's riding.

I feel these are very much PETTY gripes but yeah, if I get over them I will buy this game cuz the map was larger than anything I had ever seen

Which is based on what? Odyssey is better rated and has more reviews on top than Origins, while Valhalla is supposedly the best selling AC game.

people getting mad over op asking for opinions is so ridiculous

So why didn't you buy Mirage than? Which you wanted to buy in the first place.

You can get a horse instead of the camel, here's a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCBO6gakWSY . I get it the camel doesn't really look like it's moving like a large animal, but more like a pony. But it's just an arcade game at the end not a simulator of some sort, there's other more immersion breaking stuff in the game like a magic guided arrow...

And don't get mislead by the map size it means nothing, if anything it just means it has a lot of filler missions in it like collecting stuff.

As far as AC3 and Black flag goes, they have great world settings, but the characters feels very cluncky to move around (this started AC3 and it lasted till Syndicate), the ship combat in Black flag and even the little bit in AC3 is great though. In comparison the characters in Origins and Mirage feel much more responsive to move around, they look and feel much more agile, which is kinda ironic for Origins when it's not a real assassin game.
