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?

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.
