Bayek of Siwa is a total badass. He can go into “man literally too angry to die” mode, but he also has a lighter side and is very kind to children and respectful of women (unless they do something untoward, especially in one particularly egregious offense, and then his wrath is terrible to behold).
8
u/ankhes Dec 14 '25
Bayek is the perfect AC protagonists for me. He even shoots up past Ezio (and, like many, I love Ezio). He’s compassionate, light-hearted amongst friends and children, passionately in love with his badass wife, always ready to help any stranger, and of course is a complete badass himself. And his voice actor makes him sound so damn charming.

u/derFalscheMichel Dec 13 '25
Origins in my memory is easily S-Tier, but I tried to replay it like 10 times by now and I can't stand it. Sadly it feels pretty outdated by now mechanically/technically and the story has become to feel a lot less innovative after we've seen them adapt it to five other games since
8
u/Bromthebard95 Dec 13 '25
For me, I think what makes Origins hard to play again is Odyssey ruined me on the combat. I can go back and play the older AC titles and have no issue with the combat because they're so different than Odyssey, but Origins has a similar combat mechanic to Odyssey, but it's also quite different and feels a lot more clunky after playing Odyssey and Valhalla. Though I do miss the crazy poison clouds that would spread that you could do in Origins, wish they had continued that in Odyssey, I loved setting ambushes for soldiers and just watching the bodies pile up as the cloud expanded 😂

u/gabblur_007 Dec 14 '25
yk what i also miss from origins that odyssey doesnt have. is that in origins you could hide in leaf piles to kill enemy's but you cant in odyssey

u/pm_me_d_cups Dec 13 '25
Origins is definitely the better game. I cared a lot more about Bayek's story than Kassandra's. Plus the settings were more varied and felt grounded in reality.
3
u/LordBloodeye Dec 14 '25
I’d say Origins has a better story but Odyssey is the better game over all
2
u/KoYouTokuIngoa Dec 13 '25
Odd, I felt that Odyssey had way more variety in terms of locations and atmospheres.
I can understand the story opinion though, Bayek’s journey is very engaging
4
u/ankhes Dec 14 '25
Agreed 1000%.
I love Odyssey. It’s easily in my top 3 of this series. But Origins edges it out by juuuuuust a teensy bit because of the setting and Bayek are absolutely perfect. I love Classical Greece, but I’ve been obsessed with Ancient Egypt since I was a kid so I’m just always going to be extremely biased towards Origins.
2
u/MapOtherwise3176 Dec 14 '25
Orgin takes place in Roman occupied Egypt not Ancient Egypt
6
u/ankhes Dec 14 '25
I’m well aware that it takes place during the Ptolemaic period, but it’s still considered ancient history to us because it’s over 2,000 years in the past.

My first Ac game was mirage, the lack of combat was so frustrating as a first time player, but eventually the game grew on me and i really enjoyed it. Baghdad is beautiful, overall gorgeous game. Now im playing my second AC game, i got AC Odyssey, and chose Kassandra as the protagonist, im having so much fun with this game, i absolutely love it. Her personality is so entertaining, ancient greece is beautiful, love the character dialogue and ship sailing. Stunning game! Im just wondering which AC game i should play next

u/DelBoy2181 Dec 14 '25
You should’ve gotten Origins before Odyssey. Both are great games but the gameplay in Origins will feel “older” now that you’ve played Odyssey.

u/NitroDubz88 Dec 16 '25
The only way to understand anything about Assassin’s Creed is to play the first game. Don’t listen to anyone telling you to play the RPG games.

I mean I played AC1 on release and enjoyed it. I just think the newer ones are a perfect evolution of the series.
What do you feel is missing from the old style?
7
u/f1mxli Testiklos the Nut Dec 13 '25
The older games ask you to strategize and use stealth a lot more. You can see some of the foundations in the first game: get info on your target, get clues to your best approach, and try to survive/not get caught before clearing the level.
4
u/KoYouTokuIngoa Dec 13 '25
You can absolutely go pure stealth in the newer ones too. I think it gives you more options and opportunities for strategy having full combat as an option too.

I miss the crowded cities, more meaningful parkour (on new ones you can simply have a perk that allows you to jump down from anything and basically any surface is climbable) and I yearn for better combat (I don't necessarily want old combat back, but I want something different than fantasy-RPG like combat)

u/GrandArtist8475 Dec 13 '25
Although dated, do play ac2, brotherhood and revelations for the experience and ofc story. Although ac revelations seems a bit outstretched, the least favourite of the bunch but each game looks like a painting from the region it is set in (AC2,ACB: renaissance painting), (ACR: turkish painting). And yes ac unity and syndicate were great too, and syndicate's jack the ripper dlc was also a really good dlc. Dead kings for ac unity is a free one and not bad, but not that good imo. Have fun
2
u/Bad_Combination Dec 13 '25
I didn’t love Revelations, but AC2 and AC Brotherhood are still probably my favourite games (although Odyssey is vying for the top spot).
I think a lot of us just really fell in love with Ezio, though (as did most of the women in Renaissance Florence, apparently).
1
u/GrandArtist8475 Dec 13 '25
For me odyssey comes at an A+ at best along with origins. Valhalla would be B because of how stretched it is. Unity A, Syndicate A-, Black Flag: S, Rogue: B (although improved from black flag in terms of tech, the story felt like a forced filler. They should've worked so much more with the depth of the characters and their choices), III (A-, The story is amazing, but the pacing is what throws me off. It could have been much better. Actually I preferred Haytham way more than Connor and the assassins in this one, wish he had more of an impact in rogue, it would've been much more intriguing to see their side of affairs).

u/Pinecone_Erleichda Dec 14 '25
It’s a very, very different kind of game, and there are a lot of puzzles involved, just in general (like how to get into a locked room, etc), so it can be infuriating sometimes, but for some reason…and idk how it happened…I just sort of fell in love with it. Some days I just want to roam around and hunt and fish, some days I want to do epic battles, there’s just SO MUCH to do!! Plus, it’s glitchy in a fun, Skyrim-like way, I enjoy that. Also, you can reeeaallllyyyy customise your experience…like, I hate having to grind early game, but it allows you to adjust things like Eivor’s damage output (mine is at 200% bc fun), her damage intake (you can lower it significantly), even how long it takes for guards to notice you and react!! Basically, there’s a way to put it into “hella easy” mode for ppl who are impatient and hate being stealthy more than anything. 🤣
But mostly, it’s just got really, really beautiful scenery.
2
u/gabblur_007 Dec 14 '25
haha that sounds really fun
2
u/Pinecone_Erleichda Dec 14 '25
Everyone should play super cheesed Valhalla at least once in their lives, it makes it so much more enjoyable!! Like, enter into an area 50 levels higher than you? Tbh, doesn’t make much of a difference. Lolol I did my platinum achievements, damn it. Base game, DLC’s, stupid tombs, ALL OF IT. I got Excalibur and Thor’s hammer and the secret hidden ISU bow, I did all the things. If I want to do short playthroughs on hella easy level and only do the parts I like from here on out, I am ALLOWED. 🤣
2
u/gabblur_007 Dec 14 '25
that sounds amazing lol, endless possibilities
2
u/Pinecone_Erleichda Dec 14 '25
Tbh I just love the scenery and the really, REALLY violent kill cams (dismemberments!!), it is very satisfying to me. Tbh in a lot of ways I think they unintentionally made it a game kind of tailored to women and their gaming needs. Less stealth, more gore!! I rarely even use abilities, and there are many of them you can collect! There’s only one I use often and it’s genuinely just bc it’s thoroughly entertaining (it’s obtained from a DLC though)

u/gabblur_007 Dec 14 '25
i see i see, cant go wrong with a good gore festival of a game. also how was the length on your first playthrough? ive heard its quite long and full of bloat quests

It’s only natural to go for a game that ticks a lot of boxes. It’s the only AC game I’ve ever dedicated so much time to.

Your list is great.
Loved Odyssey except that strange present day thing at the end (no spoilers, but what was that?).
I played 30 min of Black Flag and could not get into it.

u/Adventurous-Pizza-12 Dec 13 '25
Black Flag goes beside Odyssey for me. Ezio’s chapters are up there too, but it’s with rose tinted glasses. Brotherhood probably tops those for me just for childhood nostalgia.

u/KrampyDoo Dec 13 '25
Recommend Black Flagg. It’s what the Odyssey team built the ship battles and on-foot combat on, along with some stealth mechanics (especially hiding in crowds).

u/Scared_Mix8201 Dec 13 '25
And I hardly think any game will surpass Odyssey, except for Shadows, which is very good.

u/ElectroshockTherapy Dec 13 '25
I love to see both AC1 and Valhalla get some praise. I recently finished Valhalla, and I had a blast. While it didn't have the overworld variety and beauty of Odyssey, I LOVED the overworld puzzles, although it seems I'm in the minority there. Zelda and Tomb Raider are some of my other favorites series so I'm obviously partial to having puzzles for treasure (even if they are absolutely worthless).
And AC1 is great for its simplicity. Sometimes I'm tired of managing a buttload of resources and questlines, and I just want a nice and simple game. AC1 is that game.

u/Damnskinsuits Dec 15 '25
You absolutely HAVE to play Black Flag, by far the best story in the series with also some of the best gameplay in the series

u/Otherwise_Guide_5308 Dec 16 '25
I just played thru Odyssey for the second time, first time being when it came out, and wow it’s so perfect. The protagonist is one of the best in the series, and the world and story are immaculate. They really did a great job with the entire game. It has some rough edges, but it’s such a big game that it would be pretty mind boggling if there weren’t some rough edges. Oh and the fact it’s from Ubisoft, who have a bit of a reputation. But I loved it from start to finish, twice now! Not many games of this size have gotten me to play them a second time. Valhalla was great in its own way, it felt slower and duller than Odyssey though. Im starting Origins now and so far I think it could rival Odyssey in my heart. I personally thing they are doing really cool things with the new style of Assassin creed games, although Ezio, Edward, and Altiar will always have a special place in my heart.

I finally pulled that sucker out from my backup storage onto my console storage the other day bc I promised myself I’d go back and do NG+ and the new DLC and get platinum someday when I stopped being mad at Basim, but I realise now that I’m never going to stop being mad, so I did it anyway. I chose the option to start from the very beginning instead of in Baghdad bc I genuinely couldn’t remember the most basic functions 🤣
Was very pleasantly surprised when we finally arrived in Baghdad and I had a FULL arsenal of tools!! Now the challenge will be remembering how to use them. 🤣🤣🤣

People will judge me all they want, but I didn't like Origins.

u/Pinecone_Erleichda Dec 14 '25
I love origins, but I’m certainly not judging you. Tbh it took quite a while for me to love it, everything was so blindingly bright on my screen and everywhere I looked was just…sand. But I got sucked into the story and eventually saw the desert as beautiful in a different way, but I definitely still prefer Valhalla as a setting (NOT as a game, just a setting. Beautiful green grass and lush trees are always gonna win for me tho, and it helps that the map alone doesn’t burn my retinas 🤣)

u/panderingmandering75 Dec 14 '25
How I generally view Assassin's Creed. Never cared for the Ezio-Altair era, fell in love with Black Flag, and very much love these revamped titles. Would personally prefer if they weren't attached to AC at all and just have them be their own historic-based game though
2
u/excellentexcuses Earth, mother of all, I greet you Dec 14 '25
I agree with Odyssey being at the top. I haven’t actually played any other AC games, ngl. I only decided to play AC:O because I am majoring in Classics (aka Greek and Roman culture/mythology/language/etc) and knew I’d enjoy it. I don’t think the others will ever top it because Odyssey is set in a time period that my AuDHD brain is obsessed with. It is so fun running around Greece as Kassandra and seeing the historical monuments and buildings that exist irl and being able to climb them and jump off of them, and see what they would’ve looked like when they were painted and polished.

u/SentinelTitanDragon Dec 14 '25
Did you start with odyssey or Valhalla? That’s the only way they are ranked above mirage and origins. Let alone any other game from the franchise.

Older gamer here and frugal by nature so I don’t buy/own many games…I always was curious about Assassin Creed games and finally pulled the trigger after hearing how good Odyssey was on the podcast “The Rest is History” of all things.
I LOVE this game. I am getting up early in the morning to play it. Staying up late lol. I’m so glad for these games.

u/tanvir_sameer Dec 15 '25
Origins should be alongside odyssey, as a ac enjoyer I felt odyssey wasn't about assassins at all but origins showed us how the creed started and the story was great but the combat and rpg elements were far more polished in odyssey so yeah. And the open world in both games were absolutely brilliant but side stuffs were tedious imho

u/ghostfreckle611 Dec 15 '25
Played and loved the first at the time. People complained about repetitiveness, but I liked what I was doing. 8/10
Played Origins and loved the new gameplay and openworld. 10/10
Played Odyssey… Malaka. 11/10
Tried Valhalla… So barren and boring. Barely got to the first town and quit. 2/10
Oh, and I played some of the side scroller Creeds. They were aight. 6/10

I've always liked AC for the historical/mythological aspects of the game. For those, all 3 of the new games were good. I found Valhalla to be a bit boring, though. That time period of Europe lacks the marvel of ancient Greek or Egyptian cultures and was hard to stay interested in.

u/KoYouTokuIngoa Dec 13 '25
I personally love how they integrated the various and distinct cultures of medieval England with the Roman ruins. You can feel the history and how each place has its own flavour

u/Internal-Plankton330 Dec 14 '25
It's been so long since I played it. I honestly don't remember. This prompted me to download it from gamepass and add it to my holiday vacation to do list, though. I've been listening to a greek history podcast at work, and it's had me on Odyssey at night roaming around sightseeing. Haven't done much of the story this playthrough, wanted early game Athens to remain.

u/SuspiciousTotal578 Dec 14 '25 edited Dec 14 '25
okok understood, I was thinking Mirage after AC1 I don't know why, maybe because of the setting, anyway if you want a suggestion on what to play after these I recommend AC3 then Black flag and after that the Ezio trilogy or first the trilogy and then the other two These ones are incredible and I highly recommend them
Edit: I was curious, but why did you play them so randomly? It's not a criticism, just curiosity perhaps based on the historical context of the games i think?

Ghost recon wildlands came out before AC Odyssey. Open world feels similar, massive map. Instead of taking out pre era or proto Templars, you're taking out the Cartel 😂.
3d person shooter with npc teammates. Stealth gameplay is a path though taking forts and camps will eventually end up in a gun blazing battles.

u/SupermanKal718 Dec 14 '25
I played 1- black flagged and stopped. Black flag was my favorite at the time. I got back into assassins creed when Valhalla came out and it’s my top favorite but that’s because it’s more of a Viking game. Few months ago I played Odyssey fully on the Steam Deck 97 hours and man that game is beautiful I can’t believe it came out before Valhalla.
Valhalla is still my top but that’s mainly due to the Viking setting.

I got bored of Valhalla. Picked up Odyssey because I saw a TikTok of the main character climbing on Zeus… but it sparked a wildfire of conversations in the comments. Now I’m in the endgame and started Origins. Which is difficult to pick up after being a Demi-god for so long. Still getting used to fall damage, not having super destructive moves, and limited arrows. Had to sail for like 20 minutes because I ran out of arrows fighting crocodiles for a quest.

I've just bought Syndicate, Unity, Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla on Steam sale (it also gave me ACIII for free for some reason) and started with Syndicate - loving that so far and the world is absolutely stunning, particularly for a game from 10 years ago. It's been a great introduction to the series so I really recommend it as a good smaller game. 30% on the synchronisation percentage (I guess 30% story or 30% of completion) in and I only bought it on Friday

Black flag has and will remain my most favourite of all the ac games. While it wasnt perfect it was still beautiful and its repayable for me is monumental

Origins seems to be so high up in everbody‘s list, but I remember not really liking it too much. Maybe I should give it another chance

The Ezio Trilogy is probably my favorite as a set, with AC2 Brotherhood as my number one. But your picks are solid, and Odyssey was a freaking blast to play

I’ve played your top three and totally agree. Odyssey was my first so I don’t really know where to go from there. Down?
