Standalone Story?

[baba g]

Is this game's story standalone or related to others. I never played other assassin's creed games but my friend has told me about the basic story and such. However is it a standalone so I won't feel lost at all? Looks like a promising game!

They're all amazing. You should play them all too (at least from 2 onwards).

They are all partly standalone (with the exception of Ezio). But it's not just about the one game, it's about the lore, backstory, characters and factions across all games. It's about how it all ties together that makes it awesome.

I highly reccomend you watch some videos of the stories and world of Assassins Creed & read about it all on the Wiki, though I would REALLY reccomend playing some of them too.

For Origins specifically, we don't know anything about it. The Egypt story will be it's won thing, sure. Though the character has a distinct feature (no spoiler) to a previous character in the series, so it's liekly connected.

They are all tied together, but the stories are often pretty avrage and twist its fantasy take on historical events into such a degree, that the whole selling points revolve about two groups fighthing over if its on purpose or not.

Personally I would not buy it if you didnt play the others and I simply can't recommend any of them other than maybe the first.

I understand that all the games are amazing. I have heard great things about both the game and the story and well it is one the most popular gaming series! I really would like to experience the whole series by playing all of it but i really do not have time to complete one, and there are like 5? idk. That was why i was wondering whether it can be played just based off the story! :D

Only a select few of the games are worth playing if youre not a mindless fanboy. But to answere your question, no. You don't have to play the others but it doesnt hurt to just read up a little on the general theme of the games.

this one should be stand alone, most of the AC games after AC3 are a lot more stand alone because the MC used for them... fullfilled his purpose... and every game after AC3 is basically side story filler arc with awesome gameplay and maybe a hint here and there of the underlining story. I'd say just read a wiki on it and you'd be caught up

This story is about assassin creed brotherhood how it all started

So would I be lost if this is my first assasin's creed game?

Yeah, basically Origins is going to have a standalone story with only few small references to the previous games/film/comics.

You woudnt be lost because the title says "Origins".Itis the beginning.A prequel of sorts.Its like watching the prequel triology of Star Wars before the OG movies.God i hope Origin isnt like the star Wars prequels!
