I couldn't play through the first one either it was to repetitive. Second or 3rd one was OK (I can't remember which one was which anymore) but not good enough for me to continue after that.

Yep, I absolutely love Oddyssey. Was a blast. I'll be grabbing this for sure.

Yep, call me a weirdo, but I'm one of those people who played every single AC game since launch (well, except the mobile stuff, as I don't game on a phone) and liked all of them. I know that since Origins/Oddyssey the game has shifted from the "classic" formula, but for me it's an improvement (open world, RPG elements, dialogue options). I love history and the mix with fantasy and science fiction has been on point. Not to mention the huge and beautiful maps with so much attention to detail thanks to the new engine. Aaaand finally as a big vikings era fan, even though we all saw this one coming with all the hints and leaks, I'm super excited for this one too and can't wait to see how they bring this chapter to life!

Is it still the same character in the "real world"?

I was sad and lost interest when they killed Desmond.
Despite that I've been trying the games: Origins has an interesting story, but performance on PC is dogshit. Syndicate was awesome though.

Nearly cried when I uninstalled Odyssey
There is no way in hell I'm uninstalling Witcher, massive crush on Yennefer, haha fml 😀
Looking forward to 2077, MSFS, Crysis...currently playing Fallout 3, again (lost count)

Origins and odyssey are excellent, lets hope this one with more gore and more spectacular powers and fights, and enjoyable gameplay.

Those pre-order prices at ubi are hilarious, but i will surely get it at some point.
Played all AC, the last 2 sure were different but still fun and beautyful gfx-wise, Origins and Odyssey drained over 400 hours from me, more then any previous AC.
But the name AC, was already weird in Odyssey with assassination, now vikings its going even more warrior then assassin.
I want it anyway.

Syndicate had some neat ideas plus Starrick and other high tier villains compared to the general villain gallery in the series even after these games.
Possibly also the most British villain since Blackadder or what to compare with, ha ha. 😀
(But the game itself in-between story moments can drag.)
From what I hear of the changes (No leveling but there's some power level so leveling?) it sounds like they're revamping what people found lackluster in Origins and especially Odyssey but it's still padded out and will have another gigantic world.
It also has the usual promo screenshots but it looks fancy at least and there's already a collectors edition for pre-order. 😛

As to the screenshots well nothing new there since 2008 or so but eh it works.
Far Cry 2 back then.

EDIT: That said the promo shots aside from the posing and stuff Ubisoft does for their marketing media is closer to what you get in the game proper so that's different and nice to see a lessened amount of touch-ups and such.
EDIT: And I can't find the concept art but there were some armor designs so yeah full Wagner Opera viking fashion might also be a thing. Maybe dialed down just a bit.
(At least until the premium items come out from Odin Online or whatever the web shop thing will be this time. ~ )
