If there is something good stories have, it is that they are capable of transporting you . It does not matter the format in which they are told, the theme or the protagonists; the narratives that are worth listening to are those that catch you beyond your tastes and take you away from day to day to place you, even if only for a few minutes, in a distant and completely different place. On the pages of books, the scenes of a movie or the bars of a song, the stories are there to be seen, heard and lived .
The video game industry has made a great qualitative leap in this regard and throughout the last decades. As technology allowed the development of larger worlds and more complex plots, video games stopped being a simple entertainment to become a tool capable of telling great feats and moving as they are enjoyed. Every shot, every scene and every detail of most videogames is taken care of down to the millimeter to result in an artistic product that has little to envy many paintings, photographs or films . When this happens in imaginary worlds it is fascinating because you never know how far the imagination of the developers will have gone; but when the past is recreated according to what we know about it , a much higher level of connection with that virtual reality is reached.
If there is a video game saga that has stood out from the beginning in that sense, it is Assassin’s Creed . The fact that the argumentative arcs take place at a different time and place in history makes historical research essential to create that credible context and environment in which players must immerse themselves. They began with the Holy Land of the Crusades, passed through Renaissance Italy or revolutionary France, and have now reached the shores of Greece. Assassin’s Creed Odyssey offers a visually stunning world based on some of the key locations of Western culture . We offer you a small tourist route so that you do not get lost in this odyssey.
An adventure in which you can now choose a female character, Kassandra, a true Spartan, like the ‘Spartan women’ of Spanish sport that Ubisoft wanted to pay tribute to.
