Assassin's Creed: Origins' Post-launch Content May Be Enough to Bring Burned Fans Back

With the recently announced Assassin's Creed: Origins post-launch content detailed. We take a look at why this may just be one of the main reasons to give the series another go if you weren't planning to buy the game. We already knew the game was going to be massive, this just makes it bigger and better than even that.

I'm a big fan of the Egyptian setting and its still not enough to bring me back. I had my fill of the IP with 1 , 2, Brotherhood, Revelations, 3, IV and Unity. Unity killed the franchise for me.

ninsigma2382d ago

Unity was such a bad game the franchise was dead to me as well. But I decided to give syndicate a go recently and just finished it the other day. It was so much better the Unity. And actually got me interested in the franchise again because it was fun to play. So I'm actually going to give Origins a go and I'm looking forward to it which is something I didn't think I'd say about an assassins creed game again.

Syndicate is what Unity should have been, I recommend trying it if u get it cheap. Hopefully Origins will be refreshing.

My most anticipated X1X game so far. Love the openness, RPG elements and improved fighting. Put all that is this beautiful package, and what we have here folks is a sure hit.

Ha! you got down-votes because you mentioned X1X. I'm still amazed at how much people actually HATE the "other" console. So insecure. More consoles = more competition = better products for EVERYONE. I'm not sure which "war" has more hate. Dems/Republicans (US) or Xbox/PS. I proudly own all 3 and it's bliss.

Lmao...this site. You can’t reason with them.

Julion07152381d ago

This site is ps crazy you can’t mention the word Xbox around here 😂😂 it’s jus a game console why they so serious with the down votes

ninsigma2382d ago

The look of the main game combined with the awesome looking expansions is bringing back. The game looks great and the setting is really interesting.

LegoIsAwesome2382d ago

So let them get burn some more lol. Is that a big problem? Even if they comment negative stuff about the game, at the end of the day they will still buy it even if they like the game deep inside lol

10 Video Game Sequels That Saved Their Franchise

Video game sequels like Assassin's Creed Origins, Doom (2016), and Fire Emblem Awakening were just what these franchises needed to be revitalized.

Immagaiden356d ago

Lmao what’s Halo Infinite doing on this list?

Who would ever say Halo Infinite saved the Halo franchise

SullysCigar356d ago

Thought the same - very bizarre!

RE7 though... my God, what a shift over RE6! That franchise was definitely going in the wrong direction, so RE7 was a welcome return to form.

ModsDoBetter356d ago

Resi 6 was and still is the worst entry in the series.
7 was a great turnaround, despite people’s concerned about the switch to FP perspective.

DMC5 definitely helped the franchise after the whole DmC debacle. Whilst it was a decent action game, it was a far cry from the series and the characters we knew.

AC Origins is my favourite in the entire AC series. Despite the switch to a more RPG style of gameplay - the setting, soundtrack, length, etc were all amazing. sadly followed up by the ridiculously long and “more of the same” Odsyssey.

I don’t feel it’s fair to say the franchise slipped with Doom 3, Doom 3 was incredibly atmospheric and took the game in a different direction but there’s no denying Doom (2016) was sensational.

Halo 4 & 5 were disappointing but Halo Infinite definitely didn’t save the franchise? What?

TheEnigma313356d ago (Edited 356d ago )

I'm going to have to go with SMB 3. I was around when SMB 2 first came out and people hated it. 3 is still arguably the best mario game created.

HellspawnPR1981355d ago

"Halo Infinite"? Worse Halo ever. Whoever made this list just lost all credibility.

Hofstaderman355d ago

In future lists of a similar nature I have a suspicion Final Fantasy XVI will feature.

Historically accurate from the past is tough to truly know and judge especially the farther you go back because history is written from the people in power and doesn’t mean it’s the truth just the narrative they wanted to tell.

I don’t care about historically accurate in most games because they are games not biographies or history books . Just make the game fun , good gameplay and such .

Ghost of Tsushima wasn’t historically accurate in many things but I loved the game . Many examples like it .
