Game to Discuss?
This week, we're discussing Warframe, the hit free to play space ninja game. While theoretically being about ninjas, it's more akin to a over-the-shoulder diablo, where you kill endless waves of enemies in exchange for a paltry sum of resources, which you can turn into all kinds of fun stuff. The game, like all long running live service games, has at this point amassed more cruft than the average hoarder, which while making it much harder to complete, means you can waste a few months on the existing content, with plenty of FOMO to keep you busy in the meantime. Vote in the pinned comment, and discuss below.

I full completed Assassin's Creed Origins so now I'm on to Odyssey. I love this game
Most fun I've had with the franchise since Brotherhood and Black Flag 
I honestly had low expectations going in. I used to be put off by the switch to the RPG formula and I'm still a little bothered by things like the damage sponge enemies and level beefgating.
Actually giving it a try though, I like it anyway
Stealth works pretty well and doesn't seem to have been tossed out the window. I can still reliably sneak around and assassinate. The storyline is actually decent imo. Maybe Valhalla just set a really low bar and makes Odyssey look better in retrospect
Also female Eivor looked like an ambigous mass of testosterone and tattoos while Kassandra looks like Gal Gadot 
I'm not always a fan of Ubisoft's open world collectathon formula, so something about Odyssey just hits different. Greece is a beautiful setting and I actually like wandering around. The freeform naval is addicting as ever and I forgot how much I missed it from Black Flag/Rogue. Being able to recruit almost any enemy as a lieutenant tickles my autism and almost feels like army building. I've spent a ton of time just hunting down themed lieutenants i.e. a full crew of Spartans to larp as a Peloponnesian ship or Athenians for a Delian ship. You can even recruit Cult of Kosmos guards to larp as the Templar bad guys lmao. It's surprising how much freedom Ubisoft gave you here. Even some of the scripted enemies from main missions can be recruited and the devs had the foresight to let them keep their unique icons
The mercenary system is neat and feels kinda like Ubisoft's take on the Nemesis system from that lotr game. It's pretty fun to work your way up the ladder and of course to keep the coolest mercenaries alive for your personal collection
I also like how the Cult of Kosmos doesn't just appear in the main missions. Some of them are npcs scattered around the game world and you actually have to track them down on your own time. Makes you feel like a real assassin
(Valhalla has this too and that was one thing about the game I actually liked)
While the game is a grind objectively speaking, it doesn't feel like one because I actually like fricking around in the world and doing whatever. This is one of the few rpgs where the act of getting xp is actually fun, in that I can just do whatever I actually like doing and the game rewards me for it. Doesn't try to railroad me towards a specific and "more important" gameplay loop. It's also nice that side quests and other activities level with you once you surpass the minimum level so that the xp reward is always decent
There are so many little things to appreciate too. The conquest battles are fun. I like that you can change the appearance of any gear piece like in an MMO. I wasn't sure about Bioware esque stuff like the multiple choice dialogue and romances at first, but the game won me over by letting me romance a bona fide GILF
Bioware wouldn't even let me romance Samara or Wynne 
All in all this is a great game and easily top three for the whole franchise. On that note, the differences between Odyssey and Valhalla need to be studied
In the macro scale they're almost the same game; same formula, same genre, same combat. But Odyssey has a lot to stand out for and be proud of while Valhalla's devs produced so many unnecessary changes and bad ideas. Those subtle changes had a huge impact -- it seems like almost everyone loves Odyssey, while Valhalla feels like a chore and made people think Ubisoft had flown too close to the sun 
It also doesn't help that dark ages Europe is a much uglier setting than classical Greece. Ironically I think "Dude Vikings lmao"
would have been a better fit for the earlier, more linear Assassin's Creed formula than the current open world one.
