Assassins Creed Origins - Worthabuy?

[@captaincluster316]

Single player games with microtransactions that give you boosts or better armour/gear are pointless. If you want to speed up the single player experience, just go download cheats and hacks instead of spending money to level up faster.

[@CommandoMaster]

THOSE HIPPOS ARE HILARIOUS!!!!

[@herotalib9556]

The problem is the people who buy it on consoles cannot do that. Like HORIZON and Witcher such great game and they require no micro transactions. The sad part of this is the stupid reviews compayn wont give them a bad review.

[@yannicknaert]

Micro transactions are here to stay, we will see good games ruined and other games not be affected by them but both will have them. For me i stay away from games where you have to spend money after the purchase of the game, in order to progress of win against other players. I dont mind origins and its 40$ season pass personally, it will get me 2 dlc’s wich is about the same cash/content ratio for this 60$ game. All other forms of micro transactions are destroying games. Origins will have cost me a Total of 100$ while many other triple A games these days are shooting for at least double over time.

[@HaHa-kl3hx]

@@herotalib9556 honestly i dont quite understand the point of game console now since gaming pc and gaming laptops. Edit: the only advantage I see is that gaming console is cheaper relative to a gaming pc setup. Carrying convenience is not as good as a gaming laptop. A freaking PS5 is like 12lbs...and you need a monitor/screen as well if u wanna carry the game console around to use

[@hadison6838]

Actually, I agree, because both are cheating. I'd rather cheat without spending money. But, I still choose to play as intended without any boosting.

[@epiqai208]

Mack, I think this game is a masterpiece for its historical accuracy. We all know that assassins used to pay their deities using their gold to unlock mystical gift boxes from the sky that would give them fancy clothing and nice looking weapons. It's also a well known fact that these assassins could learn more quickly from these crates as they contained magical secrets from said deities that allow them to progress quicker. It's all perfectly accurate.

[@sudarshanpillay5584]

Epiqai same he is always too harsh

[@AzariusR]

Exactly, I recovered some lost knowledge from the Hall Of Records beneath the Sphinx and found out that back then merchants do sell Heka chests that would respawn everytime it got purchased by a mercenary/assasin back in the ancient times, the chests contents are somehow unknown to even the merchant, and couldn't really open the chest at all until a random guy with weapons and some cloth covering his face could only open it with something called "Real Life Currency" which was money from the 21st centuries wallets.

[@ApocalypseGuy1]

Great review. Concerning hippos, however, they're actually the deadliest fricking animals in Africa. I'm not joking. They actually open their mouths like they do in this game, and then charge at people, using their huge teeth like horns, and it's essentially like being hit by a charging bull. This usually happens at night when they're returning to the water after grazing out in a field (they do this at night to avoid day's heat), and a person happens to be between them and the water. Hippos just panic and charge. Boom dead. They also fuck up boats passing above them, bite the people who fall off of them, and then drag them underwater to drown them. Furthermore, their skin is so thick not even lions can pierce it with their claws. Hippos are fucking hardcore man.

[@josha5933]

TanukiDigital the multicultural bit was in the first AC in 2007 and every game since The series plays around with a lot of cultures and religions, it's there just to make sure no one gets the impression that the apple of Eden being an actual object invented by aliens to control people is some kind of political statement Likewise the gender identitys bit was added in syndicate because it featured a transgender character, and it wouldn't really make much sense to remove it even though origins has nothing to do with that

[@stealyogirlandyofamilyfool3355]

Josh A nobody asked you to explain anything

[@MrReddy64]

Does it really say that at the beginning? I won't buy it just for that...

[@TanukiDigital]

Yeah I was thinking of buying this game just for the historical setting. But that disclaimer... holy hell! You know, their "multicultural" disclaimer kind of made sense in the original game, due to it's setting and world events at the time. But this sexual-id/gender/pandering is just completely out of place. I agree, I'm not buying just because of that one line as well.

[@GimmieTheJimmie]

TanukiDigital That's a pretty dumb reason to miss out on a potentially fantastic gaming experience. Even if that intro wasn't fake.

[@GimmieTheJimmie]

MrReddy64 No, it didn't actually say that.

[@TanukiDigital]

Are you sure? Apparently it was changed in the last release, syndicate, which I didn't pay any attention to because I wasn't interested in the setting, and has indeed been carried over to Origins as well. As for missing a potentially fantastic gaming experience, the market for escapism is saturated. I don't think I'll regret a choice to spend my time elsewhere... The Egyptian setting and the water tech are the only things that interest me about this, the gameplay looks uninspired and derivative.

I was waiting for this review, because I knew you would make an honest opinion. Having bought the game already, I went through parts and thought...Mack will hate this LOL. I actually didn't mind the side quests, and I hate grind. I found the quests were somewhat interesting as all the quests in an area are related. So you kinda get mini-stories in the side missions. You still have lots of valid arguments regarding that you HAVE to do it though. Completely agree regarding melee combat. It is actually really frustrating, which is, in my opinion, the worst part of this game.

Only have to wait to find those crystals for last upgrade or so. The PC controls are horrible though; I use a 360 controller. Also, there's nothing in the microtransactions you need to buy.

[@izihbo]

When I first saw this WAB in October I was so disappointed. I was yearning for a new Assassins Creed because I hadn't played one since Black Flag. So I sat on the fence until two weeks ago. I had a weak moment and bought the deluxe edition of the game. Oh man, what a game... Game of the year 2017 for sure! At least for me personally. I don't mind the grind, I enjoy it. Side missions - oh yeah can't get enough. I want the game to last a loooong time. Fifty hours in, just hit level 40 (45 is the new max I think), still loving every minute. No regrets. Regularly updated aswell. Microtransactions aren't "intrusive" at all and don't feel any pressure to pay for anything with real money. Runs great on my GTX970 with i7 cpu on high settings (51-60fps at all times).

[@JoeWilson175]

Couldn't agree more. Better than odyssey imo, which felt much longer and, as a result, more of a grind. I did play this first though, back when ur comment was made. Maybe I should have waited longer before playing odyssey. Alluding to what you said, I was so immersed into the world, the exploration and side quests added to the experience, rather than hampering it. Then again, roaming Ancient Egypt is something I can't get enough of - not for everyone I guess.

[@mancamiatipoola]

How i play most modern video games that have shitty gameplay but a decent story: I pick a nice YT game movie of the game and i press PLAY.

[@mck7646]

I think the game is good and I haven't enjoyed an AC title since Black Flag, but I can understand Mack's opinion on it.

[@michaelcourtemanche1620]

See this is why I am confused. In Black Flag, it was very similar with the "grind" where you had to get all the stuff to upgrade your ship. I remember a DLC 'time saver' for that game, which I thought was stupid. You are paying to not play the game.

[@mck7646]

Michael Courtemanche Yeah, well I don't pay for anything in these games.

[@birdman6928]

John Hamm same here

[@josha5933]

John Hamm Mac would have hated 4, origins is pretty similar to black flag so if you enjoyed that I suggest you look into it, though it is a lot more of an rpg this time as you're upgrading your character rather than your boat

[@SaltyCuntno1]

the grind in black flag was fun, go jump on ya ship and go out blow shit up wreck a few ships fuck up a few forts appart from rogue no other ac game has done that

[@mason5r]

mack have you played the original ac games.1,2,3,brotherhood and revelations ? i think those are much better than syndicate unity and origins?

[@tlita93]

The fps drops are caused by Denuvo DRM protection, allegedly. The game is decrypting the files in real time so it causes almost every CPU to go to near 100% lock all the time, so GTX 1060 gets bottlenecked by i7 6700K@4.6GHz. I guess we will know when the "blag flag edition" of the game comes out soon. :) Cheers

[@tlita93]

Hurricane Moon Well, whether it deserves, probably yes, but it's still a lot of work by a lot of ppl, even if it's full of damn lootboxes and DLCs hah. However, what Mack doesn't get is that without piracy, which i ones sold myself when i was a kid, poor countries would never play a single game on any console from PS1 to PS3 and PC of course. Small country and their sell stats are almost a joke to them. Also there was a recent, I think German study, that says piracy does not effect companies profit whatsoever, because people try the game for free, AKA pirate it, then they buy it for real if they like it and finish it. :)

[@macharius3983]

The "Yaarrrrr" edition shouldn't be long. It only takes a few days to crack Denuvo now.

[@GamesExposed]

[@STACYBURK]

This is my favorite Assassin's Creed and soooo much better than Odyssey!

[@TheBattleRabbit860]

I was a little put off by the grind when I started playing this game, but I realized after a few regions that I don't need to grind all that much; you do not need to do every side quest or clear every bandit camp, army post, cave, or what have you. The only thing I found truly annoying was looking for the carbon crystals you need to improve your gear after a certain number of upgrades to each. The Hidden Ones DLC fixed that right quick by having many chests with 3 each. There is a perk you can get that lets you buy crafting materials from merchants. I beat the game without spending _any_ money on the resource packs in the store. (Not loot crates because nothing is randomized). Dismantling gear is also a great way of getting wood, iron, and copper. The only skins I need to hunt down were the pelts, which were quite easy to do by using Senu to scan out regions packed with predators. I picked the game up on sale for... I think $7.99 USD

[@jedediahhughes3311]

The grind on this game really isn't bad compared to most open world RPGs out there. It definitely has bugs and just the idea of microtransactions on a single player game is ridiculous. I understand that gear and level grinds aren't for everyone, but anyone who has enjoyed any MMO won't even blink

So I watched this video years ago and I feel like you did origins really dirty. Obviously people can have opinions but it is clear that you havent played much of it. Its an amazing beautiful game and I have not once seen anything about lootcrates or paying to win. That screen you showed where you buy shit I havent seen once and Ive played this for over a year. The music is absolutely fantastic. Although I like the grind I feel like you can do a lot of different things to gain xp so you can do missions. I play with controller but never use the lock on. Only sometimes the game doesnt know what person to hit and slashes the air. The bows are shit because you are using the wrong type of bow and you have to actually pick a bow with a higher lever once you have it. watching this video made me wait with buying so instead of buying 1 AC game for €60 I bought both origins and oddysey for €14 on a mayor discount so thanks for that. But as someone who loves your brutal honesty and rampaging I must say that you really did Origins dirty. And I cant believe that you like oddysey more than origins and didnt even mention the annoying long ass dialogue where you have to pick an anwser and listen to people for 10 minutes or longer

Developers listen to people like you and either: include a bunch of cosmetics and dumb shit to mimic progression or RARELY, ALMOST NEVER, make the gameplay fun, and I guarantee ubisoft will never do the latter. Oh boo Hoo u couldn't mash x and y I had to progress my stats and invest in perk trees please ubisoft let me press x to win! Fuck off mate.

[@Gudwell]

YaBoyChenWang well. AC has always been about the story and there was plenty progression to be had there. Not every game needs skill trees and levels to make it interesting.

You should do a WAB on Elex, classic rpg from the makers of Gothic and Risen.

[@cip64]

he'd hate it

[@anjayl]

There is so much historical details in this game, that you can progress without grinding by just naturally exploring and learning things. Fun fact : the devs took a bet, and designed a room in one of the pyramids, after an historian's theory, that has actually been discovered after the game's release... that's awesome. I didn't like the combat at first, but after getting used to it, it felt such an improvement above the formers AC, definately not what described in this video... spam and you'll die. I only ever played AC Black Fag, and even tho I swore never to buy Ubishit anymore, I bought Origins because it was the same team which developed Black Fag. Also, never bought a crate in this game, never will, and it doesn't come in the way of my experience.

[@Heldermaior]

I don't understand these publishers who introduce lootboxes basically saying that their game is not worth playing since you can just pay your way through the game... Ridiculous...

[@namelessjuan4696]

Lmfao that disclaimer at the beginning of the video.

[@TheSp0rki]

*plays game built for a controller with a mouse and keyboard*. It's your own fault Mac.

[@spacetoy4584]

just brought for a tenner - dont mind the grind - great fun so far.. loot crates can be easily ignored if your happy to side quest and soak in atmosphere.

[@Nickydo111]

Thanks for calling out the micro transactions, for people who don’t have time is a terrible insult to us gamers. Games are there to be cherished, not rushed. It’s Fifty pounds already.

[@andrewsrenson1212]

Gaming community needs more "i don't give a fuck who's toes i step on" honest reviewers like yourself Gold medal from me! 👍

[@simeonyves5940]

Just for Once, I want to See a Game that Starts with this. "This Game was made By a Straight, White, Patriotic, British Anglican of Right Wing Views... Have You got an offense with that? well do you? then You are a right Smeg Head!" That would really put the Cat among the Pidgeon's!

[@hex_6590]

What do you think "a team of multicultural beliefs" means you moron. MULTIcultural. MULTI. More than 1 culture which includes straight white guys.

[@PCStPierre]

I’m playing it now, and I’m enjoying it. Loot crates suck, but I think if you look past that, it’s a bit of fun.

[@1Life2Little]

SJW game...

[@josha5933]

1Life2Little why? Because of a fucking sentence?

[@pentraksil]

Why, because of that intro? That intro was there since the first AC, it added like 2 lines to it. There is nothing SJW about this game.I mean, you are playing as the ultimate macho-hetero-testosterone male who is fucking his wife every time he gets a chance to. If that is SJW, then OK. This SJW paranoia about every title without even playing it is getting more annoying than SJW themselves.....

[@74kross]

More annoying than SJW? PFTTT not in a million years

[@josha5933]

Ken R Mac is getting bothered here by a message that pops up where the explicit purpose is "don't take any of the political stuff here seriously, it's fiction made by a huge team of people with very different views on life, and the game is not intended to promote any single way of living" He seems to miss the point that "multicultural team of different Sexual and gender identitys" actually means a team of predominantly white straight men, because that's how the industry works

[@pentraksil]

The intro is there so people would not rage about the historical mumbo-jumbo, the first one was about the Crusades, in a time where the entire Islam/Christianity conflict really started to take its toll in the news (Gaza, Israel, Iraq, Iran etc.) It is not to show us that they are better and that we should be like them....it is there to show SJW and no liffers that the game is fictional and inspired by historical events, not set out to show one group in better light than the other....

[@AERNIGH]

"Assassins Cry .. creed origins!" LMAO XD

[@Gruntvc]

So, SJWs ruined Wolfenstein The New Colossus and Assassin's Creed Origins, not worth a buy. Wolfenstein The New Order/The Old Blood and Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, worth a buy.

[@SlavSuperstar]

How did they ruin Wolfenstein 2? It has great gunplay, a good story that concludes on the acts from the previous game and expands them. The main villain is great, the setting is awesome, and all of the characters established in the previous one are expanded upon. It is a great satire if anything on the current events. Both sides are portrayed in a such extreme that they are both complaining. The so-called "alt-right" is crying that it's is a typical anti-white game because you are killing Nazis (in a Wolfenstein game might I add) and the left is complaining that the minorities are portrayed in a stereotypical way. As someone who played all Wolfenstein games released on PC, RTCW being my favorite FPS of all time and on the political level right-leaning and very anti SJW I say this game is one of the better ones that I have played and finished in 2017.

[@robbroster4130]

ggr lots of people saying it. Pointing out something you have noticed and is affecting your enjoyment of game/movie etc is not foolish. I noticed it in Wolfenstien and while I'm enjoying the game, I'm enjoying it in spite of the left wing political crap that has been shoehorned into it.

[@konstantingr5928]

SJW ruined entire society not just gaming

[@mcdonaldstitties556]

This will be the future of video games. No one will be fans of them and entire threads defending the game for its social justice appeal even if the rest of it is dog shit. It'll be just like comics.

[@Gruntvc]

It's not just the leftist pandering on display in Wolfenstein The New Colossus, it's a disappointing follow up to my game of the year for 2014, Wolfenstein The New Order. There's only like 5 hours of actual gameplay and most of it is a massive downgrade from the 1st game and its prequel, The Old Blood. This is what happens when you prioritize politics over making a great movie or game. I'm not against politics being in games, I'm against only leftist views being expressed in echo chambers like Hollywood movies. Here's a proper review for Wolfenstein The New Colossus. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5TGp6aZgrmNftU

I lost my shit at "you don't get syphilis" hahahaha

[@Yaboysmoke22]

You didn’t like the Witcher 3 so I knew you won’t like ac origins. I think this type of games is just not for you WAB.

[@oddmushasmr]

Nice to know. Some people absolute love Origins, most seem to absolutely hate it (for real or because it's cool to hate AC games). I'm on the fence, it's the first AC game I'm genuinely interested in but I can't decide because of the very opposed opinions. If I love Witcher 3, would this make me less likely to hate Origins?

[@BradLad56]

farouq issa he doesn't seem to like any fucking game from what I've seen of his reviews.
