Hi guys, I have the hunger for more history games. I have to say that usually I'm not a huge AC fan, but last summer I played Odyssey and I'm a huge ancient history nerd and I think that the game and the period were represented very well. (The Story was kinda meh, but serviceable). What other AC game would you recommend for me to play next? What other titles are the most like Odyssey?

If you liked Odyssey then I'd recommend Origins. Not played Valhalla but it's in the same open-world vein. People rate Black Flag highly, and the Ezio trilogy, but these are more the 'traditional' AC games so not open world in the same way and less ARPG-like than Odyssey. The multiplayer on Black Flag is great to, but not many people playing it these days.

Thanks, sound like Origins is the one to play next : )

It's good, I enjoyed it; however it would be remiss of me not to point out that Ubisoft is a hateful company, run by a hateful man: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/ubisoft-has-reportedly-made-minimal-changes-following-abuse-allegations
