Romances in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey are hilarious and messy

When I wrote about Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on Monday it was mostly centered around the awesome power of Kassandra’s kick. It was a little bit undisguised thirst for Kassandra. I asked Graham if my review of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey could just be Kassandra fan fiction and he said he would love to publish fan fiction on RPS, which isn’t a no but isn’t a yes either. Both Kassandra and Alexios have a bit of something going on. A presence. A swagger. A way with both the ladies and the men.

This is, of course, the first Assassin’s Creed where you can get biz-ay. It’s not a delicate dance of making the right in-game decisions and giving someone enough presents that their I Like You meter is full enough for a relationship. But you can choose to flirt with people, and choose how brazen that flirting is, and sometimes that results in a discreet fade to black. The text of these relationships is uncomplicated, leading to hilarious and messy subtext. This is especially the case with Odessa, my first love in the game.
