      Editing … I've been playing Origins via PS Plus because I started it years ago and I can't leave anything unfinished. It's Odyssey without the Cult of Cosmos stuff, without the Spear of Leonidas and without the ship battles. In other words, Origins lacks all the things that made Odyssey.... well I wouldn't use the word good, but I did play its very lengthy campaign to completion and had some short bursts of fun. Origins is just a slog. I truly hope I unlock some abilities further along that improve the experience.

      Editing … It's weird, Odyssey feels very much like Origins, but I found Origins a lot more dismally boring than Odyssey. Odyssey's not as good as the older games, but it's kind of easy to just sink into a long session. I also finally switched from Exploration mode to Guided mode so I can just open my quest list and quickly speed to objectives.

      Editing … Valhalla is even longer than Odyssey so there is no way I am ever playing it or Far Cry 6. Both series have been mediocre for far too long and sucked way too much of my life away trying to find specks of their former glory. Mirage looks like a step in the right direction, but Ubisoft can't seem to do anything right these days. It would have to be a GOTY contender like the series used to be for me to pick it up. Though I have my fingers crossed for that new Prince of Persia.

    Assassin's Creed: Valhalla very much feels like old Creed, specifically Black Flag. I'm not entirely sure how to feel about it yet. On the one hand, it's nice not to have a million, billion weapons and gear thrown at you, it's also a shame to see regenerative health disappear. And the pretty lackluster social stealth makes a comback and not even as well as before. But that aside, the combat feels great and I enjoy the raids. The sidequests are short, sweet experiences with lots of wacky characters and I actively try to seek them out when I can. I'm not very far in, yet I must have put in around 16 hours or so which I feel is proof that I am enjoying the side content. I'll need more time with it before I can decide if I prefer it to the last two Creeds. It's definitely a blend of the old and new but time will tell if it carries the strengths of the two styles or if it fails to marry them in a successful manner.

    Today, I embark on my most ambitious AC Series playthrough yet. I decided to splurge on the few missing titles in my collection and now own all the games. I shall thus be embarking on an epic playthrough of 16 games. Having just completed AC Origins, i shall be omitting that from the challenge. Ignoring the present day stuff, I am going to play them in timeline order, so the challenge stands as follows:

    Altair's Chronicles
    Assassin's Creed
    Bloodlines
    ACII/ACII Discovery
    Brotherhood
    Revelations
    AC Chronicles: China
    Black Flag/Freedom's Cry
    Rogue/Liberation/ACIII + Tyranny of King Washington
    Unity
    AC Chronicles: India
    Syndicate
    AC Chronicles: Russia

    I'm so damn excited! I haven't done my series playthrough properly for a couple years now. It's going to be a blast!

    P.S I intend to get Odyssey at some point too and play that on the side.

    Settings I still want to visit:

    Old West - I don't care that we've been to America already. I want to be a cowboy Assassin. I want to wear a cowboy hat and ride horses and wield a revolver in the American frontier.

    Ancient Rome - We've been to Rome already! But it was after the fall of Rome. Show me Rome. Country Rome, take me Rome, to the Rome where I belong.

    Medieval China - God damn it! We've been there too! But AGAIN, they didn't do it RIGHT, I want it in 3D! I want to explore!

    Russian Revolution - You've got to be fucking kidding me with this shit REALLY? I always wanted to see Nikolai Orelov as a playable character, but I wanted to be able to explore! God fucking

    Ancient India - I'm gonna go on a fucking rampage I WANT AN ASSASSIN'S CREED THAT INCORPORATES THE BUDDHA fuck god damn it Ubisoft you've got to be fucking

    Elizabethan England - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUGGGGHHHH

    European Dark Ages - Yeah I'd like to see the plague-ridden medieval era, riding around while armored on horseback.

    Woodstock - I'm really not open to feedback on this one

    Find myself thinking about Assassin's Creed almost daily now. Especially whenever I play Rise of the Tomb Raider. Playing that game makes me wonder what heights a truly well-crafted AC game could achieve. I really hope the next installment pulls out all the stops and makes this franchise rise above it's current status as a mediocre series of collectathons.
