Hey CheapLEY... about AC Origins... (spoilers) (Off-Topic)

I wondered about that too, but by the final hour or so I think they capitalize on the AC lineage in ways that make it all worthwhile. Like, something as simple as the right music at the right moment gave me chills :)

Looking forward to seeing it!

I just did a quest leading up to killing the Crocodile. Looking for papers that the family's little girl had taken. Needless to say it didn't end well, and damn, it really hit me. This game is very well done, I think, when it comes to making you feel the justifications for getting the revenge Bayek seeks. More than any other Assassin's Creed game, I am so on board with killing these assholes. In most other Assassin's Creed, it just boiled down to, "Oh, they're the bad guys," and while you could understand why they were bad, Origins goes out of its way to show you what's going on, show you what they're doing to the populace of Egypt, how truly awful they are.
