Not gonna lie I'd probably read a book set in the Thief world because I just like it so much

The hilarious part is that AC Odyssey is set during the Pelopennisian Wars and has people like Socrates, Herodotus, and Alcibiades as characters. I know it’s all dumb and just a game, but for me as someone who enjoys Ancient Greek history and culture, it can be a pretty amusing and enjoyable game. Now, you would hope that this game could be a good gateway for non-lit people, and get them to try something like Plato or Homer or Thucydides, but instead you get this novelization junk. It’s a god damn shame.

I heard they made a book based on this. Anyone know if it's worth a read?

I’m playing that right now. It’s undeniably good, though obviously extremely formulaic. It makes me want to make a good game set in Ancient Greece where you play the son of a god.

>As you gain in strength you get more muscular and go from being able to shove enemies to being able to throw them 10+ feet / grab and slam them
>ditto animals
>at full strength, paddling a boat at full (godly) speed into a beach would launch and break the boat

Things like that would be great
