Hi guys, I have the hunger for more history games. I have to say that usually I'm not a huge AC fan, but last summer I played Odyssey and I'm a huge ancient history nerd and I think that the game and the period were represented very well. (The Story was kinda meh, but serviceable). What other AC game would you recommend for me to play next? What other titles are the most like Odyssey?

Unity was the game I was most hyped for, especially because of its graphics and bigger maps. I even went to speedrun through the last three games to catch with the lore and begin playing it as soon as possible.

Alas, my PC couldn't meet up with the heightened hardware requirements and I had to give up after barely finishing the tutorial with the awful frame rates even with the settings set to minimal.

Surely you've upgraded your PC in the last ten years since the game came out, right? I'd recommend checking it out on a sale or something sometime.

I got my gaming rig recently and played all the releases up to Rogue only this year. I assure you my specs are modest enough and it's just the game that is poorly optimised. Even Watchdogs 2 ran better than this.

I played it on Xbox and then PC even back in the day, and I'd 100% believe that it's poorly optimized; they patched it a few months after launch to remove a lot of extraneous, unseen detail on the map that was hurting performance. It's still surprising if you can't run a 10 year old game well on a modest modern PC.
