Just played AC Odyssey ...Currently playing Origins. Is there any games out there like the AC stuff. Also like finding new stuff and location.

  Star Wars Fallen Order and the sequel Survivor. Even if you don’t like star wars you’ll enjoy the game and gameplay if you enjoy assassins creed.

  I don’t know why I like the Assassin’s Creed games so much. They’ve been getting progressively worse for like 10 plus years now but I still like them. I even liked the Viking one, well I tried to. Haven’t tried the newest couple of ones though. Mirage doesn’t look very appealing maybe when it gets really cheap.

  Certainly nothing really scratches the same itch exactly. There are a few games that almost do though that might appeal to you. The Shadow of Mordor games were kind of similar, not quite but in the ballpark. Even if they do offend me horribly as a fan of the lore. Far Cry 3 also came close though in a wildly different manner. Thats the only Far Cry game I’ve played but maybe thay would be a good place to look.

  every assassins creed game is basically identical, so pick any from that series

  Crimson Desert is scratching the itch for me right now.

  Red Dead Redemption (both) are basically cowboy AC but instead of assassins/Templars, it’s just rival gangs in the old west. Even has ‘tracking mode/eagle vision,’ ‘Deadeye/VATS,’ and all that jazz.

  The Batman Arkham games are good, though I’ve heard mixed things about Arkham Knight, very stealthy/assassin-y games with Detective/Eagle Vision and sneak takedowns.

  If you’re into more exploitation based fantasy rpgs with good combat, Dragons Dogma/Dark Arisen is really good. Pick from warrior/mage/rogue/mix of any 2, and your combat changes based on that and your weapons/magics. Throw smaller enemies like goblins at each other, grab onto a griffin or cyclops to take out its wings or eye. First one is great but heard mixed things about the second, and mtx.

    The read dead redemption comparison is so interesting. They would appear to be really similar, but AC is so much more fun to me than RDR. Especially RDR 2 is so serious, and I really miss the fun power fantasy of AC in traversal, mission structure, combat and so on.

  Not sure why no one’s mentioned it yet, but these two are very different from the previous AC games. Odyssey is kind of a refining of Origins, which AFAIK is the first of the series to introduce RPG elements (leveling, talent trees…), and made the “assassin” part of the title meaningless.

  The previous games are more focused on assassinating specific targets, and stealth (somewhat).

  What made most of these games shine is the climbing and roof-running, which is why, in my opinion, Valhalla sucks. They took buildings away and have you running around in bland-looking flat marshes.

  Ghost of Tsushima is basically just honorary Assassin’s Creed, so you could play that.

  Rise of the Ronin is also underrated, it’s basically a Ghost of Tsushima with better combat but worse everything else. But still has you covered on the open world slop front.

  Both these games have tons of checklist stuff on the map to do and camps to clear and so on.

  Some good or at least decent stealth action games:

  • Far Cry: most of these can be played in that way
  • The modern Tomb Raider games (since 2013 or so)
  • The Sniper Elite series
  • Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon series
  • The Hitman series
  • Dishonored + Dishonored 2 + all addons/DLCs
  • Deus Ex Human Revolution & Mankind Divided (also the very first Deus Ex if you can tolerate its “graphical fidelity” nowadays)
  • Deathloop, but it’s worse than Dishonored and much less “serious” than the other games on this list

    It sounds like OP isn’t after stealth action so much as open world slop. I don’t really think there is a huge overlap between AC and Deus Ex or Dishonored for example.

  I was told Breath of the Wild and Crimson Desert have a similar vibe, but I’m not sure as I’ve not played them.

  Wow. Not one mention of my favorite AC knock off.

  Go play Shadow of Mordor, or it’s sequel Shadow of War.

  Big open maps, lots of AC type stealth and action, lots of collectibles, and finally, the Nemises System. Where you can kill an orc only to have him survive somehow and hunt you down. You die by orc? Well now that orc is even stronger. You die at all? The world advances and random events around the maps resolve with or without you.

  Do it right, and you can make your own unique enemies. I like finding bardic orcs because their rhyming is funny

  Lots of them. Everything Ubisoft has done for the last 10 years is the same game with different skins.
