SHOULD YOU BUY PLAYLIST
• Should you Buy Ghost R... - Hry
Origins - Setting, Main Character, Story.. It's just no contest.
Didn’t expect you here
Meh
I liked the extra level of detail. In orgins the hallucinations we see in the desert show the ghosts of the pharaohs, even moses was shown there throwing a staff that turns into a snake, cool detail
Origin sucks
@@jellymelly1157 maybe oddysey but orgins had a decent story and nice gameplay
The ancient Egypt vibe hits different
Same😎😎😎😎
@@Honeypubg82 haina
It hits so different that i couldn't lt finish it. My God those stupid repetitive quests...
@@adnanasghar1087 k cool,your opinion,so ya liked valhalla?
Vibe!!??
Never played Valhalla but Origins had a rollercoaster of emotions and you can feel how Bayek feels about his journey as you progress. A good example is with Shadya, his wife Aya, and his son Khemu.
Oh!
SHADYA
yeah that shadya mission pissed me off.
Yea those hit really deep. Also remember Shadya was a side quest if I remember correctly. One of the best (and most painful) sidequests in a game imo
@@coleg1493 Fucking Wrinkly ancient bitch.. I hate kids in the real world but in game or anime I just can't...
I feel like the reason origins didn’t have much stealth like crowd blend and such is because bayek was such a well known person all throughout Egypt, I also feel like the quests help add to the story because it shows more character development on bayek and you get to see just how much of a good person he really is despite his brutal revengeful nature at times
Like I really enjoy playing side quests in AC Origins coz it just feels like that's what Bayek is supposed to do as a Medjay.. getting to meet random people and helping them out with their problems which are a byproduct of the events in the main story makes the whole game complete.. when the main story takes me to a new region, I first play the side quests to find out how the villain's actions affect the common folk, and when I'm done with the sides, I assassinate the villains and complete the main quests, which wrap up everything nicely
He was the Medjay of Egypt plus a great gladiator everyone knew him so I don't mind that stealth wasn't a high priority for him
Stop excusing laziness by the devs
@@LatinW321 it’s not laziness if his whole character is based off basically a hero in Egypt it makes sense that he can’t blend in
@@brandor3494 in your logic WHAY would be impossible, no printing press so people can’t see his face, news would take weeks to teach a single person. Maybe 10% or less would actually know how he looked like. So yes. It’s lazy
I dont know man. Origins just hits different. It just does and it has a special place in my heart.
Same
@TheRockingKiwi I wish it was.Its just a good game thats why people like it.You can see the effort that was put into it and it completely changed the franchise.Into a better one.
@TheRockingKiwi Stop the Cap
Same. Valhalla is amazing, but Origins has my heart
Yep sqme
For me honestly, I prefer Origins more just because of Bayek and how he's such an amazing and phenomenal character and because Ancient Egypt is my favorite setting in any game ever
I completely agree
@@masterassassin791 Indeed :)
Yes :>
This. But you gotta play him with beard and hair. Also Origins has the best AC logo with the eye of horus.
@@donteventripdawg932 I honestly prefer beard but without the hair cuz I just like Bayek that way
The most significant reason why I connect more with Origins is the soundtrack. The theme and the mystic ancient Egypt, they both go well. When I hear the theme of Origins, I wish I forgot the game again just to have the excitement to play it one more time as first timer.
I just started playing Origins about a week ago for the 1st time. This is my 1st Assassins Creed game. Since Next gen has sucked as far as releasing next gen mind blowing games, I've been going back playing older games. With Gamepass I was able 2 download Origins for free. I saw Origins trailer & I had goosebumps just seeing the scenery of Egypt & hearing the music in the background. It felt somewhat biblical/spiritual. Sometimes it seems overwhelming b/c the map seems overcrowded with activities, but hopefully I'll be able to narrow things down & play thru the story at a decent pace
@FutaCatto Not sure what you're looking at but origins is 5 years older and you can definitely tell. The textures and lighting of Valhalla is naturally significantly better, it just runs worse.
@FutaCatto Your points have nothing to do with the graphics.
@FutaCatto "Origins is filled with NPCs, animals and a ton of hidden treasures"
This has nothing to do with graphics, which is what the point was for. Valhalla objectively has better graphics. It's a much more recent game. Your opinion is sort of irrelevant.
@FutaCatto Again, that is not graphics that is performance. Those are not the same.
For those that don't know, you can play Origins' main story all the way through by doing only the sidequests that tie into the main story, which are usually on the the informants table everytime you progress to another region for the main story.
thanks mate i am level 32 finally got it :D :D
Origins definitely. Had the perfect mixture of assassin lore and RPG.
So right!
do u still think that ?
Playing valhalla the loot system in origins is missed the way loot is so spread out makes the game feel more stale for me the more I push through.
Rpg sucks wish it can be non RPG again from Ac1 till syndicate gameplay was fun
@@rohail_9349 that's ur opinion
Origins soundtrack gives me goosebumps
The soundtrack is phenomenal. The only issue I’ve seen with it is in the afterlife maps where for some reason some songs are not synchronised properly. For example a song starts and it cuts in the middle and it’s not because you encounter an enemy and it has to change to more intense song for a fight, it just cuts without any reason when you’re exploring.
Facts
Origins soundtrack is unrivalled
Yeah it was good but Valhalla's soundtrack has got to be one of the greatest
*Press X to start*
no
Origins was a fresh take on the franchise that I appreciated. It had enough familiar and new stuff for me to enjoy. It seems like the 2 sequels took the stuff I didn't like about Origins and brought them more and more to the forefront. I really wasn't too fond of the RPG combat in Origins, for example, but I was able to brush it off since the franchise was trying out new stuff. However, the combat then only proceeded to get clunkier in the games that followed. The problem I had in the old style games with regards to combat was just that it was overly simple and too easy, but one thing that could be said is that you felt lethal, like an assassin. Honestly if they just made the player more vulnerable to damage, that'd be a big improvement alone. The direction they've gone where it's 50 hits to kill a guy and a numbers game in combat does not suit the theme of the series in my opinion.
Well, your opinion is very wrong
Reason:*I said so*

As a history buff, Origins hit the spot for me. The world was much more immersive and the architecture straight up breathtaking.
The reason Valhalla couldn't do that for me was how the things and objects in the world felt they were out of place, like the objects, vegetation, and buildings were not placed carefully and sometimes wouldn't sync in with everything unlike Origins where it all came into place
Edit: In short, Valhalla felt very gamie to me and didn't encourage me to explore it like how Origins manage to motivate me to explore it's world
Have you done the world walkthrough in Valhalla that goes through how they made the game
i can see this, personally the viking lore piqued my interest a lot
@@FFrappeFairy

As a history buff, Valhalla hurt to look at. So many things are wrong with the armor, weapons, clothing, hairstyles, etc etc. it feels more like they got inspiration from insanely inaccurate shows like Vikings rather than actual history :/

When they got Bayek´s son killed, the expression and acting by Bayek´s actor was superb. You could really feel emotion in that act.
Agreed. Bayek is amazing, character and actor. His actor did an amazing job of portraying him and every emotion.

@@richardfaile1966 ik i was joking

I love Assassin's Creed Valhalla but no AC game will ever top Assassin's Creed Origins. From Bayek, to the graphics, to the gameplay, to the music, to the story its really not a comparison. Also in Origins, the enemies have their level number over there head whereas Valhalla it display a red skull. After Origins I didn't even play Odyssey, It took me years to play another AC game after Origins. Its just that great of a game.
I really appreciate that you don’t include spoilers in your videos. It’s hard to play through all the games and still be part of the community without getting spoiled, so thank you!
“I AM A MEDJAY TO NO PHARAOH” Bayek

@@Malgraine "And I will kill you all! EVERYONE WHO SNIFFED THE AIR THAT DAY IN SIWA!!!" *splash*
@@shewfx1314 Man, that pure aggression. It was so fking relatable...
Honestly that opener ruined me on all other AC games. Bayek’s rage is palpable. He was the one protagonist where if he was mad, I was mad, if he smiled, I smiled. His pain, etc. Valhalla is just so so blah in comparison. And even Odyssey nailed some things too. But Ubi should be embarrassed-Eivor is not complex, doesn’t grow, and sacrifices very little for carving out a piece of England for ravensthorpe for the raven clan. Origins, this game here, is probably Ubisoft peaking. P.S. I did really enjoy Odyssey even though some Story elements got a little meh.
@@nv3154 I was with Eivor until Kchotve's arc (his father's killer).
After that (after moving to England) it was nothing more than a Viking simulator to me...
I recently finished Valhalla base game, and I still don't feel like I accomplished anything whatsoever, in Valhalla.
I was literally roaming around for a conclusion quest in Ravensthorpe after completing it, but all I could find was "Kiss Ranvi", "Invite Randvi to bed" and "Breakup with Ranvi" wtf? She doesn't even looks like a woman sometimes...
Valhalla's ending felt like a story teller saying "What do mean, what happened next? The story is over..."
Ok. There is only 1 difference.
One of them is an actual assassins creed game
Imo, odyssey>origins, I'm less of a diehard assassin and enjoy combat more and am in deep love with ancient greece
@@harveyweinsteinslefttit9037 I wish Odyssey wasn't an Assassin's Creed game.
@@harveyweinsteinslefttit9037 Makes sense, oddessy was just to arcadey with extreme damage sponge enemies with a lack luster story and weak story development imo
@@AzrealJ I liked the story, it had a few twists and turns which kept me on my toes,i never knew what to expect,it also took me all around ancient Greece, and let me see simulated historical sites and although combat was unrealistic,the variety of attacks available made combat always different to the last fight (only against bosses) so overall it was more enjoyable.
@@harveyweinsteinslefttit9037 Thats the thing Greece felt so good until you needed to travel to another city and there was artificial mountains that looked copy and pasted it to make the map size bigger, combat also was pretty much always the same to me hack slash and dodge. The story just was so stale and it was my hardest 100% of all the games because of it
Bayek definetly deserves another sequel where we could see the hidden ones develop into the brotherhood with Bayek starting to create more bureaus in different places and become like an assassin from old games
he died before that happened bro ac mirage is set in the 9th century and they’re still considered the hidden ones origins is like 40 bc
And Assassin's Creed Origins is the only game set on the Continent of Africa. I am from South Africa so Egypt is still really unique to me being right at the top of the continent. I do feel at home with some of the familiar bird sounds from Egypt also in South Africa. 😎👍
Wpww
Yeah another South African, howzit bru…I haven’t played origins but will this December!
Hitman has a level in Marrakesh.
@Thomas Sullivan its not Assaassins Creed now is it?
@Thomas Sullivan I thought he meant purely AC games
The viking age is my favorite time period by miles and I was so excited to see what kind of narrative they’d be able to craft with viking assassins but Valhalla really let me down. Origins has just got such a special place in my heart. Honestly it’s a toss up between black flag and Origins for my favorites.
For me assassins creed 2, black flag and origins are my favourite 3
Origins black flag ac 2 and brotherhood are the best games imo.
I feel the same
whoever puts origins oddyssey or valhalla in their top tier asc games yall don't understand shit about games and have 0 critical knowledge because if you grew up with the old best asc games you would understand that the new ones are not traditional anymore liek before and they have become rpg games which have nothing to do with the whole asc saga it's a disgrace to the whole community so you saying it's one of your favorites it's equal to me saying i like more volkswagen golf than lambo just because personal preferance it doesn't make sense and you can t come back saying it's personal opinion a personal opinion can be between real toptier games and that would be ok but these new asc games are a shame to even call them asc see what im saying no hate tho
@@MatrixSignals2K24 agreed.
Orgins has such a beautiful vibe. I didn't get that same feel from Valhalla.
What about odyssey? I personally hated Odyssey
@@malazan6004 Oddessy is okay, but I agree with others that it is bloated and kind of cartoonish.
I do enjoy the setting and assassinations though.
@@malazan6004 i depends on what u like. vikings,actual assasins on origins or straight up sparta kicking everyone
Yeah, but the time Valhalla is set in was less beautiful than ancient Egypt in real life anyway...
@@kw5961 The cartoonish in Odyssey make me feel bored quick. Origin has the feel like need to finish it but the leveling system through side quest make me have a headache.

Unity is my favourite but origins is so good as well
Origins is the best in the last 5 Assassin's creed games. Things i like the most in origins: (personal opinion) (Spoiler Alert)
1) Bayek & Aya characters .
2) It's gorgeous open world with lot of deserts, villages & cities like Alexandria.
3) Exploring the tombs.
4) Story with lot of emotional elements...mainly when krookodile killed that poor child Shadiya...i felt so much of rage & sadness in me.
5) Soundtrack at its best.....it makes you feel like an Egyptian.
6) Good ending & its consequences for the origin of HIDDEN ONES.
7) They balanced the rpg & stealth elements in this game ,unlike Odyssey which gave more importance to RPG .
8) Sliding from the pyramids is my favourite thing.
9) Combat is fair enough but i like the 4 different categories of Arrows.
10)Hidden ones & Curse of Pharaohs dlc are good, the mythical lands in Pharaohs dlc are splendid.
Have a nice day 😊.
Searching the dark ancient tombs and riding through the deserts are my favourite things to do.

Odyssey is just as Good as Origins, and Valhalla is as well. I love all 3 equal, just love Origins landscape, environment and world the best out of all 3.
I absolutely agree with every point you made. I like Valhalla, but I absolutely love origins, for the reasons you described. I would also like to comment on the B-roll footage you provided for this video. WOW! I wish I was as proficient at playing the games as you are. it inspires me to get back at it and give it another honest go, so thank you for that.
I feel that Valhalla was a pretty good game but it could of been a really great game if they put more time into it and made more interesting features
Valhalla was good, mainly repetitive. Could’ve been better.
Scarab is such an underrated side villain
He is the best antagonist in origins easily, the rest of villain in origins are pretty trash
@@donrog5035 I agree actually lol
Underrated as hell I mean I like him too cuz he was great even tho he was just a side villain
The cool thing is the scarab is the same voice actor as Adewale in Black Flag, so it really hurt when I thought he was a good guy but ended up being part of the Order of the Ancients.
@@xBlOodxCrYsiSx Same I really liked Scarab's character too in Origins quite a lot as a side character and I was so surprised when I found out that he was bad all along
Bayek feels like a real person that I almost believed he has to have existed on earth. That alone makes Origin better than Valhalla.
I thought Bayek was a more interesting character the Eivor. The time period and setting, plus the whole dynamic with Bayek and his wife sharing the same goal set up interesting plots and character development on a level you don’t really see in Valhalla.
You're getting a subscirption because you don't spoil the story, I have Valhalla, and am looking into Origins at the moment, Thank you!
Bayek is strong, emotional, crazy, in love nd hilarious at the same time. He and Aya have a good chemistry that's why origin's fire🔥

Origins is my favorite as for Valhalla, I haven’t played much of Valhalla since I am still at the beginning, but I would say the fighting style in Valhalla felt…immersive to me. Being a viking and all and having all these strong attacks towards your enemy felt very good and satisfying to me.
To me honestly, I love both games, but I love Ancient Egypt, the fact that you can explore so many important landmarks such as pyramids and the sphinx was just mindblowing to me and the discovery tours you can bet I did every single one of them to learn about Ancient Egypt it was beautiful and so educational I loved that touch from Ubisoft. I've had a blast playing both games but Origins is my all time favorite. The story, the music, the quests, the beautiful deserts and cities just amazed me when I first got it.
I have the exact same feeling as you dude and I remember that back in 2017, Origins was the most hyped i've ever been to getting any video game ever

i really love your videos man. keep it up
This is probably the most practical review of these 2 games . You clearly mentioned when it was your subjective opinion which was driving the outcome of your choice and gave solid reasoning for the other categories. I prefer valhalla over origins because of the guaranteed assassination and could complete missions/camps without being on the same level. The filler missions on valhalla and the side quests were much better than that of origins. The abilities in valhalla give a much better depth to combat and even the stealth options you had were more diverse. Origins had a great story , visuals and characters but my overall choice would be valhalla.
Sorry but what you're saying is complete crap. What do you mean you can complete camps and clear hideouts without being on the same level in Valhalla? The game literally tricks you in the beginning of the game. When you and your clan first settle in England you get a mission to raid monasteries to get supplies to build your settlement. The game tricks you by putting a particular monastery near your settlement so you think its something you can handle easily. But when I tried to raid the place at that point (and keep in mind this was after I already easily dealt with another monastery that was also pretty near the settlement) in the game I was completely and utterly DESTROYED. Then I went back and checked and saw the suggested power level to raid the place was 130. Its simply impossible for your power level to be that high that early in the game. My power level at the time was like 20. And also you can't assassinate enemies that have moderately higher power level unlike you said. There is a whole skill you can unlock in the skill tree dedicated to killing high level enemies with a timing based stealth strike that deals a lot of damage, but there's still no guarantee it will kill them just deal a lot of damage.
@@moboladaleadeaina141 i would recommend you to watch "HARDEST RAID in Assassin's Creed Valhalla!" by vadact , yes it is hard to raid with lower level but the combat system where you can target weak points makes it easier and yes you can move forward in the tree for getting more assassination damage but it is literally impractical to do something similar in origins . I understand your argument but what i felt during my playthrough was , i generally refrained from going to higher level camps in origins even if i was 3-4 levels lower and was forced to do the side missions on the other hand , in valhalla i was able to complete campaigns with 130 level which required 160 level and was able to clear out camps without being detected because my assassinations were successful .
Origins feels more engaging to me. The setting and Bayek as a whole is just super fire 🔥
Origins was perfect. It had the longest development time amongst the rpg type AC games. It had the perfect mixture of the old gameplay and rpg mechanics.
I like what you did here cause you show the strong points of each game.
Since I value story the most, I think I'm gonna choose origins.
I want to start this by saying I haven't got to try Valhalla yet so I can't compare them.
Anyway, I never had an issue with stealth in Origins, however, that could be based on my specific playing style. I preferred using the predator bow on high towers and just sniping enemies. This playing style worked well for the game. I also really like this RPG style fighting. I wasn't a fan of the old AC games because their game play and combat style didn't work for me. I didn't have high hopes for Origins because of my experiences with other AC games. However, I gave it a shot since I like ancient Egypt. I will say that the parkour mechanics are a little finicky sometimes... Specifically accidently jumping off ledges, going through windows when you don't want to, and declining without jumping.
Outside of that, I loved the story of Origins. I felt a real connection with Bayek. His hate for the order really shows through in the game and you actually feel like your making a difference in the game world. It also did not shy away from brutality of the story. I cant give examples without spoiling the game, but when you fight the Crocodile mask, it was heart wrenching. Same with the Hyena Mask. You actually get attached to the story.
This also brings me to the main enemies. There is a sense of mystery while fighting the order. There are some twists and turns and some real surprises. You can kind of guess what will happen due to some clichés, but overall, you're kind of just as lost as Bayek in the story. The story also builds and changes pace as you progress. You can feel the suspense in the main quest build as you get closer to your goal while still maintaining a sense of mystery because its written in a way where you cant quite 100% deduce what will happen. The enemies towards the end of the game are also very interesting. There are some "Order" members you only assassinate while other members will actually fight you. Those that fight use odd mechanics that are a tad unorthodox and actually force you to be creative when fighting them and having to find their weak spot. I really enjoyed this aspect. It added a sense of urgency in the fights.
Then there is the origins of the Assassins. Throughout the game, there are little hints and drops here and there about the creed tying into the game, but towards the end is when it gets real interesting. You start to see just how Bayek ties into the creed and honestly, it takes a direction you're not expecting and was a very interesting and emotional ending.
The story speed is really nice as well. It's not so fast that it takes away from the story, but not so slow that you get irritated playing it. I did get bored a few times when ignoring the main quest and doing side quests. The side quests are not interesting at all lol, but the main quest is wonderful. I did enjoy the mostly open world, finding all the jump spots, hidden tombs, hermit sites, and unmarked locations/Easter eggs. Being able to climb almost everything in the world was really fun as well.
I also loved how it tied history and fantasy together. I was already biased in favor of it because I love ancient Egypt and its history, but Origins actually did some research. They actually got the timeline correct for Cleopatra and Caesar, The Library of Alexandria, and much more. I was pretty impressed by the games details to history.
origins is the only acceptable prequel for me since it focuses on assassins
True that since Oddessy was more

Yes. Origins was focused on Assasins while Odyssey was focused on Templars. And that's what I loved about it. It's my favorite out of the three.
Assassin: a person who kills a famous or important person for money or for political reasons
@@YashuCosGaming two things. One they were referring to the Brotherhood’s Assassin title not assassins as a type of person or a type of action. Two the Brotherhood kills for moral reasons that are usually tied to political reasons as well.
@@readbyname Odyssey definitely isn't Assassin's Creed.
But neither was Black Flag - Edward Kenway doesn't "join" the Assassin's until almost the end of the events of Black Flag.

Arthur Morgan :( love that man
@@md.junayedhossain7955 bayek and arthur were both really well written and i enjoyed seeing their reactions to the world
@clever boy yeah you can lol
@clever boy only cuz ezio got 3 games and everyone else got 1
Origins just puts a warm felling in the heart, the music....mmmmm just love
because it’s in a desert haha
So does Valhalla tbh
While I've been a fan of the series for years Only came to be able to play it for the first time back in 2019. At that time i remember thinking that the games i played had no real story element so i went back to my go-to storyline. At this point I hadn't been up to date with AC for years so i just picked the coolest looking one and went with it. Little did i know i would find myself more in love with the series through origins. I am most definetly biased as this was my first game but i can't help it. Seeing what was essentially a fairy tale to me brought to life was so great and the characters were so compelling. It had been a long time since i played a game simply because i loved it and i can truly say from the bottom of my heart that AC origins is the best game I've played
I hear you using that fan made version of "Ezio's family" for Valhalla. Not bad, i applaud you.
Solid points on all of your arguments. Rarely do I find a CZcamsr where I almost completely agree on everything you say.
Thank you kind sir I’m glad you agree!
There were a couple points I’d trade but I’d still have Origins just edging out Valhalla
Origins because there’s less Godlike skills
And more gods, haha
Literally a single guard can fuck you up XD
@@chyawanprash Nah lmao
@@hanson2331 Dawg you literally fight the most notable parts of the Egyptian pantheon what are you talking about.
Remember the first Phylakes horn you heard in the game?
Man what a great job comparing both great games. Congrats
There were new "Assassination opportunities" in the seige of Paris dlc like the games used to have. Like it would tell u ur target then a bunch of opportunities on how to get in the building and special Assassination cutscenes
I loved origins. The music, ancient Egypt, and most of all Bayek. His voice acting, the pain he encounters throughout the story. I just felt such a connection with him. Felt so bad for him. One of my favorite games tbh. I like Valhalla, but origins truly is one of my favorite games ever made.
i found more depths in bayeks character, more soul than eivor has, and a more positive vibe sometimes also beside his rage.

Great video! The only thing i disagree with is immersion, i feel like Valhalla did a WAY better job of makin Eivor seem like he belongs there, everything around him screams vikings, from the conversations, to people's beliefs, to combat, little games, even the addition of Asgard and such. While Bayek definitely belongs in Egypt and is very much a medjay, the world around him doesn't do much to scream Ancient Egypt, other than of course the sights, how the cities look, the piramids, etc. I'd give that point to Valhalla, a lot has to do with the fact that it's a newer game and of course they improved on the immersion, learning from the previous games and adding on top.
Great video now i gotta know your opinion about Odyssey
Didn't even need to watch bro... origins is the best of the "new" assasins creeds
Facts
@@masterassassin791 I feel like they don't put love in the new games, the maps and design are amazing, but the Story gettin more Boring with every game
They should rename it and don't call it assasins if u are not a assasin
@@jasperverbrugghe3933 true
@@jasperverbrugghe3933 they should make another ip so they can make a different game and don't sell it as a Assassin's Creed, like they did with Fenyx rising.
After finishing origins recently i understand why people want a sequel with Bayek, i even went to the extent to learn more about the city, people, and architecture with the discovery tour, i have 80 hours in and just finished the story lol the game is just amazing
Exactly, we need a sequel with him discovering social stealth and forming the creed. I appreciate you sharing your opinion and have a nice day!
I admire your passion esp for the overall enviroments of ac origins. But dont you think in certain locations of this game the visual is a bit too yellowish?
@@Rubythroatedhummingbird its in a desert
Yeah totally! I just got the game a few months ago along with Valhalla and Oddessy, and I absolutely love finding a city, a ruin, or a person's name only to find out these people and places really exist. It makes it incredibly immersive.
I just noticed that the grass and other things like bushes are not interactable which is weird knowing how good it was in ac origins
you was 10k subscriber 2 yaears go
I used to play origins so much and something about it is just so amazing and I loved the whole Egypt vibe I still play it to this day
I thoroughly enjoyed Valhalla and thought it far exceeded Odyssey. But Origins is just too perfect. You should’ve included “Wildlife” as a category within the Open World section. That’s one of the big reasons for me loving Origins.
Yeah by the time you clear an enemy camp and go back to the first guy you killed vultures are already eating their dead corpse. Like damn nature you scary
I've recently started playing Valhalla and am really enjoying it, but I wish more mechanics had been brought over from origins, I really miss tools, the ability to carry to bows and switch between them, stuff like that. I really like how it's improved the RPG mechanics and I'm really enjoying just running around the world and doing activities. the order of ancients investigations is probably my favourite part and something I hope to see get deeper in the future, cause it's a cool system that's been perfected after it was introduced in Odyssey. I like that each member has their own memory corridor scene. my favourite experience with it was having to learn orlog because I had to get some info on a target. I ignored the orlog tutorial in Fornburg so having to learn during the side quest was a pretty unique feeling experience that I wasn't expecting.
I also like that Origins cloth actually felt like clothes, blowing along the wind and going where it should be instead of a repeated cycle or straight out glued to your legs/body
Honestly, its origins for me. 2017 was such a good time for me, the soundtrack hits me right in the feels every time you load it up, reminds me of playing if for the first time at Christmas
I’m glad so many people loved Origins, it was one of the best games. The combat was also better IMO, the new games just have fancy colors for every move. Origins was much much more grounded. Even the animation when you walk through tall grass sets the mood perfectly.
Combat was light years better than Valhalla
Ikr!!
Combat is better in valhalla but everything else is better in origins

Both games were absolutely phenomenal. Valhalla had some very cool new gameplay mechanics and mind-blowing graphics (at least on Stadia Pro).
Yup, both games are incredible in their own way 👍
Origins made a hard come back for the series, Odyssey and Valhalla just doesn’t hit like Origins did.
I loved odyssey cuz I love Ancient Greece and I found the combat satisfying af. I’ve just started playing origins. Not enjoying the fighting so far
Didn't play Valhalla yet, but I enjoyed Origins. I had more fun on Odyssey as it reminded me of a mix of God Of War/Black Flag.
well Valhalla is the best sold Ac game ever 🤨
@@Orthur.Callahan. I started it last night, so far I prefer Odyssey by far. This stamina addition feels like they're trying to make it even more like Dark Souls. No automatic regenerating health outside of combat either. It's alright but boring imo. Odyssey was far more fun an addictive.
@@ninjanizzle bro wtf a game don't needs automatic health regeneration to be good ? In general I'm also prefering odyssey bc it don't has such a shitty ending like Valhalla. But You gotta Give Valhalla credit for the most fun gameplay in the whole series it's rly fucking addicting. The only thing thats bad is that it's gotten a bit to easy and this is bc of all the Ezio dick suckers who cry when they can't kill an enemy with one button click and Ubisoft tried to make both sides of the community happy in Valhalla
Ubisoft: "it's set in ancient egy-"
Shut up and take all of my money.
What's even more amazing and fascinating about Origins, it is set a good 2000yrs or so After The Old Kemet Kingdom too so imagine if it was set then during its True Golden Age... 😰😰
Nothing beats starting the game walking through that dark ancient tomb, riding your mount to the hilltop of Siwa and the camera pans out to show the little oasis village.
I was damn near shedding small tears when I rode through the desert to Giza and saw the pyramids in their majestic glory.
Plus, I still have nightmares about Shadya 😢
First time I played Origins and dived under water and saw her tied to a rock, drowned, I was heartbroken and just stayed there underwater until I couldn't breath.
Sending the Crocodile to The Duat was Worth It!!

I think you should compare Origins with Unity. I think both AC game did bring lots of new things into the franchise and also were totally different to their previous games. It would be fun to watch Unity vs Origins comparison.
I've been playing origins for a while now and I was thinking about getting valhalla but I wasn't sure I'd enjoy it, tho after seeing how much you liked it and how similar it is to origins (in some aspects) I'll definitely be trying out valhalla very soon.
Valhallas garbage, try odyssey it’s better (origins clears both tho)
I prefer Origins. Bayek is amazing. Egypt is great. The story arc in Origns is way better.
The acting is great (just watch Shadya's sequence). The order is powerful. The music from Origins, my god. Also, the Hidden Ones is such a piece of art. What a great DLC. The last video with Anumet, is just to breathtaking!
Valhalla is great too. Nice locations (Norway, is stunning). The Lore, and the modern arc are way better. Valhalla's fighting system is cool. Not great but cool. Stealth is great. But the game is to LONG. Kind of boring sometimes. I have no bound with Eivor. Shame, because i like him...
For, me Valhalla is a good game. But Origins is fantastic.
AC Origins: 9/10.
AC Valhalla: 8/10.
Agreed
After reading all the comments reviews, i am glad to hear we all Can agree that origins was so beautiful 🏜
Origins made me actually wanna travel by horse to another region just to visit different village culture...In Valhalla i mostly fast travel
Started playing Origins as the first AC game 1 year ago and it already feels like a 10 year old special memory for me.
For me, Origins, hands down. Better story, better immersion... and above all, when the main story arc is played, hundreds of hours of roaming, secondary quests with real stories and voices... +infinite skill leveling, buy xp, selling resources, buying xp books and so on. All in all an infinite game, especially with NG+.
As for Valhalla, after the main story arc: nothing, or no, sorry. Puzzles. Let's find the key mini games over and over.
Sorry no. Our 2017 game is far superior than this 2020 half baked beta they call "Valhalla". And the gods know I wanted it to be the new Origins...
Haha I agree origins was great I still enjoyed Valhalla and the stealth was much better but your right overall with immersion world and storytelling Origins wins.
Also I wanted to add: I understand and respect opinions saying that combats are improved in Valhalla, but for me they are too fast, thus unrealistic. And because the character is smaller in Valhalla than in Origins (not smaller of course, but the camera is too far from the character in Valhalla imho), the combats look distached from reality, or how can I say, way too arcadish. Combats in Origins are slower, sure, but they feel real. When I play Valhalla I dont like the combats, they feel like playing an arcade game, or a kungfu panda thing. At some points, I even saw Eivor as a World of Warcraft melee character: small character on screen, and a lot of supernatural motions...
@@user-vipgxpn agree 100% Valhalla's combat took the fun out of it for me
Fuck yeah I've been wanting to see a comment like this. I still play Origins still today and it's still my favourite in the series. Bayeks my man, dude went through hell and made the brotherhood what they are today.
@@ayoo.bruce01 Origins is my fucking favorite in the series too and Bayek's the real GOAT cuz he's the man!!! :D
Bayek character and his story is really good, you care about him and you felt really connected to him through his journey. The music and the setting is just epic.
Origins in Ptolemaic Egypt was like playing a movie and something I’ll always remember whereas Valhalla is just a game that goes on forever with a half decent story
I’m loving Valhalla (my first AC game) and seeing all the comments saying Origins is better, makes me so excited to play it. Though it seems Valhalla has better game mechanics but Origins has much better story and world
M8 you gotta play AC Black Flag. Best AC game out there. The music is also hella good
Origins made me really feel connected to the world and Bayek. No other game except Elder Scrolls has made me feel that way
