At a point in the game you learn there is a massive cult all over Greece controlling things and you need to collect clues and take out the various branches. Each regular member gives a clue towards their leader and all those give clues towards the top leader.

I would agree if not the stupid as fuck level system where you can sneak up on someone and slit their throat but your knife is only level 17 so their level 34 veins repels the blade.

That's fucking stupid

You can turn that off. And also without the limitation, one could skip everything from one boss to the next since they'd all be one hit kills if snuck up on.

Sounds like how an assassin game should be if you can get in and stab their throat without being caught.

This. In real life you can eliminate a good fighter if you can sneak up on them. The challenge should be in the stealth aspect. Its called Assassin's Creed after all. Not Warrior's Creed

If I manage to reach a top general of an army in his tent, my reward should be I can eliminate him with one strike.

The Cult System was... kind of dumb. It was just a list of assassination targets except you were supposed to just kill them in a specific order or randomly discover them on the map or use a guide to find their location.

Yeah you get unique gear sets from it, but it wasn't anything revolutionary.

Also I don't recall being able to disable any sort of leveling system. They did patch in level scaling options but you can never fully disable it - even on lighter settings enemies are always 2-4 levels behind you.

The Mercenary system was a nice improvement from the mercenaries they had in Origins, I'll give you that.

You can disable it in the new Viking one from what I've seen at least.

Yeah, from what I know about Valhalla you can turn on Guaranteed Assassinations to bring back one hit kills.

Haven't played it yet but I also believe it shipped without enemy level scaling and then they introduced it later.

It's not an Assassin's Creed game, and that's what makes it the best in the Assassin's Creed series.

You can't disable the leveling, you can just turn on one hit assassinations

Unless they added that option in in the past several months, I don't recall that being a thing.

You could find gear and obviously spec down the stealth tree to maximize your chances of getting a one shot kill but I can't find any information about a setting to enable it like you can in Valhalla.

I like how through simply fucking around in the world you might accidentally fight a cult member. Most of them just look like regular citizens but some are in bases or on boats

One of my favorite moments was watching a crowd of other NPCs attacking and ultimately killing a cult member.

That happened to me once. At a dock or pier or something.

They just beat a cultist to death for me.
