This or Odyssey?

[Ace]

Not sure which one to choose, both look appealing, but can afford only 1

[s0d0]

Let me put it to you this way:

AC Syndicate: The last "classic" AC game, with VERY GOOD parcour and nice fighting animations and good fighting overall. Lot of gadgets and weapons. Story isn't anything groundbreaking, but playing is fun. The only thing that makes me not really liking this game is the AI, which is incredibly stupid. Their visual range is about 15m sometimes.
Overall gameplay time for the main story should be about 20hours.

AC Odyssey: More like a Spin-Off. Has nothing to do with classic AC, but plays rather similar.
Combat isn't good, on highest difficulty you hit harder enemies for hours until they die, Assassinations require the right gear, otherwise you cant kill with one hit (very annoying, and looks ridiculous)
Parcour is simplified, but it's sufficient for the setting.
World is huge, a lot to discover, something around every corner. The added Ship+the fighting with it is very casual and feels much worse than the one in Black Flag.
Main Story is very long, but also enlengthened through level gating. About 100 hours.

So both games have huge problems in my opinion, but they are still fun to play.
Hope this helps with your choosing.

[s0d0]

If he'd asked for Origin, I would have recommended it as well.





But he didn't.

That was my guess.
How you like Odyssey so far?

[Squashbuckler]

I feel like this is the weakest instalment that I have played so far...

[s0d0]

What do you mean? Synd or Ody?

[Limerence]

I love Synd a lot, except enemies are WAY too easy and it gets worse when you finish the game.

[doiy]

Unity! hwhw

I don't consider Odyssey as part of the Assassin's Creed franchise as it has absolutely nothing to do with Assassin's Creed so if you want an actual AC game go for Syndicate in my opinion.
