Friends who follow me may have discovered that I rarely express suggestions on whether the game itself is recommended to buy, because I think it is a matter of opinion. Even if a game is a classic, some people will like it, and some people will not adapt to it. Just like the beginning of Ubisoft Games, it will say...
So I don't like to make everyone complain through words, especially for the sake of so-called recommendations and attention, it is even more inappropriate to do so. As an adult, what I want to tell you is that sometimes hating a game is not only because of the design itself, but also because of physiology and psychology. It's also a game from Ubisoft. I play "Far Cry: Ancient Killing" and I'm dizzy every time, and no matter how many motion sickness medication I take, it doesn't work...
Why do you need a second review?
I have been doing game reviews for fourteen years, and most of them were online games before. With the official reference content and features provided, an online game review is enough to explain its various aspects. But for stand-alone, I think it is not fair enough to summarize the entire game at once. Therefore, I advise friends who want to play the game well not to be fooled by those who define it after only playing for two hours. After all, the success rate of applying for refunds within two hours of steam is higher.
How to play this game?
Back to the point, many people will query strategies or change the values of stand-alone games. For those who play stand-alone changes, I think you are sorry for the more than 200 yuan you spent. How busy are you... Nowadays, stand-alone games are becoming more and more open, and simply following the original routine may not necessarily be able to get started as soon as possible. So how should newcomers play "Assassin's Creed: Origin"? I summarize it as follows.
1: Follow the main line to do the task. (When doing the main task, you should always open the M map to see the prompt symbols around you. The symbol represents many content, including side tasks, exploring treasures, fast moving points, etc. The most preferred thing to turn on is the fast moving points. Even if you pass by, don’t forget to use the E key to open them simultaneously.)
After pressing E to complete synchronization, you can quickly move between these points
2: Complete exploration in the map area. (M key opens the map, and after shrinking, you can see the recommended levels of different areas. Within the level range, be sure to explore all the exploration points so that you can get more equipment. Why not blindly follow the main line? Because the back main line will let you go to a new area. Returning to explore at this time often makes people lose interest.)
As the map is turned on, the more you ignore exploration, the more things you need to explore
3: Collect game materials (In the game, animal fur can be obtained through hunting. Press V to exhale the pet eagleYou can find where they are. So what about metal and wood? You can get it by grabbing the Roman patrol, and you can also search by pressing V to find it by the eagle, and you can squat on the road. )
The Roman patrol is a transport team and an ATM
In short, "Assassin's Creed: Origin" is a game where you can unlock moving points and find treasures while playing the main line and enjoying the plot and scenery within the level area. There are many interesting little designs in the game, which we will take out separately in the next section.
Fun in Games
Follow the basic operations, some people think it is simple and easy to use, while others think it is just like this, old-fashioned and boring. So I'll talk to you about something interesting. Do you still remember the environmental system I mentioned during the first evaluation? Through the four-day experience, I have a deeper understanding of this system. In addition to the realistic sandstorm weather, the game also has meteor showers from time to time, and mirages will be seen in the desert. These small surprises fill the entire game.
Because the speed is too fast, I can't take the most pictures, it's really beautiful
In addition, there are many designs for newcomers and old birds in the game.
First of all, we need to talk about faith jumping. This is a classic action in the game. Turn on a fast moving point and you can jump directly with W+ALT. There will definitely be water or haystacks waiting for you below. But most of them are killed in other high places.
The second is to find ancient stone slabs in the game. This is similar to the exploration maze, which usually appears in the exploration of tombs in the pyramid. You can get additional ability points when found. This is another way to acquire ability points besides upgrading.
Ptolemy statue. This one can see a pharaoh-like avatar on the map. At first I didn't care much, but later I found out that I could smash it and give it experience value. After thinking about it, I suddenly realized that you were loyal to Cleopatra, and it would be reasonable to smash your own statue of gods for the battle for humans.
Six in-depth and essential gameplay methods
I want to talk about some practical things below, friends, please look at it seriously.
①Stargazing gameplay
People who haven't played level 30 don't know what "Assassin's Creed: Origin" has to do with Saint Seiya... Just kidding, the game provides a very heart-wrenching plot, especially a dad-level character like me, who has a lot of insights. The protagonist and his murdered son have visited 12 stone ring areas in Egypt, which are the golden positions for watching the twelve zodiac signs. With love and memories for your son, you have to retake this journey and experience the uniquely designed stargazing gameplay for this.

When you can't find it, there will be a prompt for staying in the system
Search the corresponding star to open the star map
Stargazing is very simple in gameplay, and it is a very enjoyable process. It will give you a connecting appearance of a star map, and then let you rotate the mouse in the starry sky to find the corresponding stars. The star map style matches the actual star layout in the sky, and then open a star map. There are twelve signs in total, which are the twelve golden palaces. This process is free participation and optional, but for me, who is a father, the plot is indeed tear-jerking.
②Kill mercenaries
After level 10 of the game, mercenaries will chase you. They are bounty hunters of the Roman Empire, commissioned by your investigation organization to find and hunt you throughout Egypt. Many early players say that those who see the red helmet logo on their heads must escape because the damage is extremely high. But this only belongs to level 20, because after entering level 20, your ability is basically the same as that of early mercenaries. With the help of some weapons and tactics, you can already win. The point is that after each mercenary is killed and confirmed to be dead, the player can obtain a legendary weapon.
It is easier to kill mercenaries with the help of warrior bows or horse riding and chopping weapons
Being chased for level 20, it turns out to be carrying such a valuable item
③Sailing Battle
This friend who follows me may have seen the video I shared. Many people compare with Black Sail and with Navigation games, but I think it is better to have such a rich experience than a single and boring content in a stand-alone game. After all, even Ubisoft himself says that his own game can only satisfy you for less than 100 hours of enjoyment. This cost-effectiveness depends on how I understand it. It is really not expensive if I am young.
Although it is a bow and arrow shooting, the game sound effects and momentum are great
The game's naval battle mode is very simple, with WASD controlling the direction and spaces accelerating to collide. Press ALT when the enemy fires bows and arrows to defend the entire ship. When the ship gets close, press F to throw away the gunpowder bag. It is not difficult to find when looking at the screen, there are switched ammunition contents. But before level 30, this gameplay is displayed through memories of the protagonist's lover. I believe that there is open and free gameplay in the later stage, which is also a design for the rich operation of the game.
After the impact, you can basically kill a wave of gunpowder bags by relying on the turning angle.
④ Racecourse
When it comes to racecourses, ancient Egypt's horse racing during the Roman Empire is more suitable for describing it as a racing car. After the game level 20, Alexander's racecourse will be unlocked for players to experience. Time trials, rankings and leagues can be held here. The league can be matched with UPLAY members. Let's talk about this in detail later. The gameplay of a horse racing carriage is also very simple. WASD controls the direction, space + direction drifts, press E to hit the opponent, press SHIFT to accelerate, and press the right mouse button to defend against the impact. The whole process is intenseExciting, those who have watched the new film "Pompeii" may find the meaning of paying tribute to the classic film.
The events in the game are really a very good casual game
There is special effect when knocking over the enemy. If you fall off the carriage, remember to press the space to return to the carriage
⑤Gallery Arena
Players close to level 30 can open the arena with the main line. There are also two modes here: Individual matches and Friends PK, but the premise is that when the personal points of a friend are higher than you, the two-person competition will be unlocked. The style of playing in the arena is more like the design of a small level. Every gladiator who can challenge will have a small level in front. Each level has three waves of enemies, and they will be defeated to challenge the boss.

Remember to use your anger value to gain an advantage
The gameplay of the arena is more suitable for training your combat skills, but the performance in my screenshot is rather trash, because when I first started recording, I got the highest 6,800 points in the entire server, which may be the same as everyone playing. As a result, I found that I forgot to turn on the recording screen. When I re-recorded, I only got more than 2,000 points. Let's take a look.
⑥ Killing God Mode
As of the moment, this mode should be a memory experience with side operations that appear in the plot. The game promotion has mentioned the concept of fighting against the Egyptian gods. At present, the first experience of hunting giant snakes is not very open, and it is more like the plot killing of Kui Ye. However, the game has no reaction key settings. It would be better if this concept is added. Of course, the first one in the early stage is the experience. It is unknown whether it will be more playable later.
It can be said that it is nervous, but I am nervous when I see someone bigger than myself
Written at the end
An hour has passed without realizing it, and I, as a slow man, finally told all the content I hope to share with players. If I make new discoveries in the later stage, I might come to the third and fourth bombs, not to urge you to buy them, but to not want everyone to leave behind exciting things. Maybe there is one you are pursuing hard? Finally, let me tell you about the online part of the game. Although "Assassin's Creed: Origin" is a stand-alone player, it still has many innovative points in combination with the UPLAY club system.
First, you will see some blue exclamation marks in the game called Revenge Mission. It means seeing a dead person who is similar to his protagonist and then helping him with revenge. At first I saw the picture and found the name very strange. Some were called XX3368 and some were called strange English names. Later, I suddenly realized that this was the corpse of other players who accidentally died in the game world.
If you see a person named huanggao, it was because I accidentally jumped high
The second is the racecourse and gladiatorium in the game. It can also be online here, but you must be a friend of the UPLAY club. Friends on steam do not seem to support it. This should have a better experience on the PS and XBOX side. After all, not many PCs can add friends to UPLAY.
