Has anybody here 100% completed Assassin's Creed Odyssey?

If I remember right completing all locations is not required in Odyssey to get to the platinum (it was required in AC Origins). Personally I've stopped at about 70% and I only kept visiting them because I wanted to use them to level up. The worst ones are the forts, it takes only a few to see what they have to offer and the rest is the same. True time wasters.

I had 90-ish hrs by the time I finished. In the end the game was a chore.

My save is at 161 hours last time I checked. Things I am missing:
- Gender and branching path main quest specific achievements (I have to play the game with the brother to get those, make some different choices)
- All sets (unless I spend cash, I can't get them all quickly. I'd need to play weekly to see what random pieces are sold to get those. The ones that can be collected normally I have)
- Max all skill trees and all DLC abilities (unsure if there are enough points to do this, but if there are: then I can just respec and buy everything)
- Some obscure DLC cheevos...like, I don't think I've assassinated one of each type of statue guardian
Apart from that...all regions done, all locations looted, all quests complete, everything assassinated, all collectibles, max level, the works.
And I played it on a shitty CPU that choked in every city.

It’s probably not for you then. You are looking at a minimum 80 hour commitment, if you are over it before hour 5 you should just drop it now.

Oh no I already put 41 hours in overall. but this game is definitely better suited for short bursts. I over did it today

Yes the map is huge and again you can't rush the story because of levels, expect to reach 100 hours even if you ignore a lot of the optional stuff along the way.

Different strokes I guess. It was the only game I played for a long time after I bought it, even if my mind wandered it always went back to Alexios And what we could be doing next.Oh no I already put 41 hours in overall. but this game is definitely better suited for short bursts.

Man i love Alexios, he's so damn funny at times. I cant believe everyone said he was boring and you should play as the girl.

Some of the deadpan delivery he had was classic. He reflected how I felt about some of those missions almost to the tee.
The graphics and voice talent were top notch, I don’t care what anybody says.

I really don't buy that Alexios is boring and Kassandra is somehow an amazingly written character. It's just woke BS.

Origins and Odyssey are nothing like Black Flag or any of the other games that came before them.
You should check either of them out, before excluding them as more of the same.

Alexios voice actor did a great job with his script, its unfortunate that some of the gaming community took to torching him for the sake of “diversity.”

You should totally play as the girl.
Alexios looks like he should be selling tomatoes on a beach somewhere.

You misunderstand. I was saying one hundred percenting one AC was enough for me.

Oh yeah, I can agree with that, especially the old collections AC. I don’t have the patience for that.
You win there.

I doubt I've done 1%, so far I'm hugely turned off by how fast she runs and i quickly give up and hunt deer in Red Dead Redemption 2, or hunt ork in TW Warhammer 2

No. I liked the game, but the story was dumb as rock so I had no interest to keep on playing once the credits started rolling.
Good god, that whole Atlantis thing was such a fine example of Ubisoft games having shit narratives and horrible use of tropes in general. The cringeeeeeee

Origins at least has map/scenery variety. Every location in Odyssey looks the same,

I’m near 200 hours. Still have Atlantis DLC to go. Enjoying the game still,

I actually went back and finished Origins again after Odyssey. Origins has the best landscapes by far.

Yes, platinum and 100% including DLCs (both were great), 150 hours. I'd play more if there was any extra content. AC is one of my favourite series and Odyssey was exactly what I'd want from the series. It just clicked with how I want to spend my time with games. I don't remember the last time I spent that amount of time in a SP game. IIRC previous AC which I did 100% was AC2. In-game achievements which make you repeat story missions with unskippable dialogue and cutscenes really put me off.

Surprisingly I almost did. Great game and the name suits it perfectly. The whole game is an adventure not something you just follow as one story path.

This thread is giving me the urge to get back to Odyssey — my second favorite in the series

Impossible, was very hooked on it at some point, but distractions etc is very hard to get back on after a while.

I 100%'ed Black Flag but Oddysey is just ridiculous.

I’ve seen a lot of people praise the two newest entries. I really enjoyed all the prior games and actually would like more of the same, so what separates Origins and Odyssey from the games up to that point?

You're going to go crazy once you open up the world map for the first time and see all areas available for exploration. And then again once you get to a certain region and nearby unexplored locations will start popping up.

Got the Platinum but not all the DLC so the completion stats are something like 58% now

I don’t know if anybody has time for that. It’s already such a huge commitment and I don’t want to waste time sailing around needlessly.

That's what I don't like about where the AC franchise is heading. The Assassin's Creed games aren't simply fun to play sandbox games anymore. They're becoming more like second jobs forcing you to spend tons of hours with them to level up your character, upgrade your gear and then get a chance to advance in the main story. They're also huge traps for completionists.

I just recently beat it and the dlc as well. Took me about 88 hours and honestly I felt it went on for far too long and had too much padding for my tastes. If the next AC is just Odyssey 2.0, then I'm out. They went too far in the rpg direction with the Witcher inspiration and it was a complete grind fest.
darkinstinct
...lacks reading comprehension.
I always play as female characters when I have the choice, because I love women and not men. Why would I want to stare at a man's ass for 100 hours? Kassandra is amazing and
I think Alexios role with the cult is much more believable that way. I would not believe Kassandra as this incredible warrior the cult has

I wish I could get AC combat into Witcher 3. It’s the one thing that keeps stopping me from playing that game. I know I would love the story, but the combat is so clunky.

I went for 100% completion, did daily quests to the point i could buy most of the store items without paying real money and at the end when i got tired, I just found out that there's a cheat engine which unlocks every cosmetic so i used it, played a little and got rid of the game. It took me 320 Hours and right after i uninstalled the game i began to think whether it worth it or not. (Yeah rather too late to realize that)
The animation department is way off, The choice and consequence is rather lacking, nothing "assassini" about the game, weak story and bland writing. It was so bad that i felt i was controlling a piece of plank. Kassandra is blank, motionless, soulless, characterless and this also applies to Alexios. Gameplay loop is fascinating but there's a massive problem in here.
The stupid amount of "Level-Gating" literally rips the story pacing apart and the game dev didn't help solve this by updating the level cap to 99. It's grindy as fuck (You basically can't proceed from a main mission lvl 20 to the next one which is 25 in a row because you MUST go through a cycle of side quests to gain the required level)
The skill tree is lackluster and the super sci-fi abilities aren't likable to me. (not that AC was about realism ever but odyssey is way too fantasy/sci-fi-ish so i didn't enjoy that much)
Although it may seem that way but i'm not trying to shit on Odyssey but as a person who is still in love with the franchise (Since AC1) i loved Origins way more than this game. To me, Everything Quebec offers feels the same way. Starting from their first projects (I think it was AC3 DLCs) to their latest. I say don't waste your time on 100% as there's nothing challenging or interesting about doing it.
You don't require to check every "?" as they are usually copy and pasted without the slightest of changes. All you have to do is a set of boring tasks which is... not what i would expect from a fun achievement/trophy hunting. Also there's nothing major to do in the world (like mini-games for example) except for a lousy ass arena which is basically the same as if you try to fight with normal enemies. Also i don't remember any collectibles apart from the legendary armors.
