What's up assassins this week we are going to discuss the pieces of Eden and
their significance in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
So buckle up this one's going to be a doozy!
With just a month before launch the news has been coming hard-and-fast off the heels of
Gamescom and PAX West. The big themes have been
Medusa, Mythological creatures, and The Pieces of Eden
In interviews the dev team have come out and said that there
will be a number of pieces of Eden to collect in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
As we learned in the demo at GamesCom
The pieces of Eden will be in shrines that are linked to certain
mythological creatures. In the case of
Medusa, you have to be completely leveled up to be able to stand a fighting chance
against the slithering nightmare.
it was hinted at that most of the mythological
creatures we encounter will be at very
high levels and collecting the pieces of
Eden will be something best saved for
after completing the main story.
If this is true it is actually kind of disappointing that we will not be able
to take on these characters until later
in the game. This doesn't come as much of
a surprise though since the trial of the gods from Assassin's Creed Origins was
much the same way and upon completing these challenges we received some of the
best weapons and outfits in the game.
I can also assume that the same will be
true in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
What is interesting is that the pieces of Eden
are in fact what manifests the
mythological creatures. As we've seen in
previous games the pieces of Eden give the wielder unimaginable power but never
before have we seen them physically transformed someone. The shrines and the
pieces of Eden are going to be found throughout the entire world of
Assassin's Creed Odyssey. The Pieces of Eden shrines will be where we are able
to upgrade the spear of Leonidas.
By completing the piece of Eden shrines we, will be able to upgrade the Spear of Leonidas,
and in doing so we will gain some of our godlike powers. Since the
pieces of Eden morph ordinary people into twisted monsters, it would be
interesting if there are some sort of metamorphosis of Alexios or Kassandra
once all the pieces of Eden have been collected. Origins gave us three Anubis
outfits to unlock so I hope that there will be some sort of Greek god
themed outfit or multiple Greek god outfits in Assassin's Creed Odyssey that
we can unlock. In previous games the pieces of Eden have always been a
driving force behind the modern-day story. We take control of a historical
character and find where the pieces of Eden have been hidden so we may find them
in the modern world.With Layla now aligning herself with William Miles and
the Assassins it seems as though there is a real push to find the Pieces of Eden,
but what is the reason for this. In syndicate we saw that the Templars are
trying to bring Juno back to life this will obviously not be the case since
Juno was put to rest once and for all in the Assassin's Creed Templars comic book
What are the assassins up to in the modern-day story of Assassin's Creed
Odyssey? The next little bit is just a theory of mine but if true could have
interesting and significant ramifications for the series going
forward, and will be incredibly spoilers. So take this as a warning
you're still here? Okay I think that the assassins are trying to bring back Desmond Miles.
I know that most people would rather him remain in the grey where he in subject
16 and many many others are but hear me out. First of all we know that he is still
alive in the grey. Her message in Assassin's Creed unity shows
correspondence between Juno and an unknown individual Juno says the world
is trending thus be patient in due time all will plug in none will leave not one
not Clay not Desmond all are here with me all are here with me all live in
bliss so must you do as well so must you all samples collect data provided to
revive my race the hidden 12 to remake my world. In an interview with Stephen
to to you of Kotaku AC Odyssey creative director Jonathan Dumas States "I think
that we have enough twists and turns in there to satisfy our more hardcore fans
that like the modern day story and where it leads you I'm kind of excited for
what we have." and when pressed on the significance compared to origins he said
it's bigger I know this isn't an admission of anything but it is telling
that there will be a huge reveal in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Let me break it
down for you we know that pieces of Eden are incredibly powerful objects created
by the Isu or first civilization the intent of these devices was to control
humanity, and now we know that they could even physically change the user and
always the user is endowed with near godlike powers. The last part of the quote from Juno said.
"To revive my race the hidden 12 to Remake my world. Could the hidden 12 be
12 pieces of Eden that we must find an assassin's creed Odyssey? Moving on to
Assassin's Creed syndicate Juno is working her way back into reality
Dr.Gramatica is working on clones trying to recreate a precursor or Isu
body for Juno to inhabit. As we find out at the very end the shroud of Eden
is the key. tTe shroud has healing effects and was what led to the revival
of Juno in the comics. Ane of the first details we got in Assassin's Creed Odyssey
was from an interview conducted by Unilad with Mel MacCoubrey the AC Odyssey
narrative director. In this interview she said that Layla is searching for
precursor / Isu artifacts and that the first Civ will play a significant part
in the game. Now after Gamescom we have found out that the pieces of Union will
be very significant but will it lead to the resurrection of Desmond or does
Ubisoft have something even bigger in store for us. The messages from the Isu
in Assassin's Creed origins hint the time travel or at least a better
understanding and the ability to control time will be achievable. But what will
Layla and the Assassins do with such a power once attained. We are just one
month away from finding out, and I for one cannot wait to see the twists and
turns we will find in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. What about you guys
what do you think? Will Desmond return in Assassin's Creed Odyssey or their even
bigger things afoot in Assassin's Creed Odyssey? and leave your comments below.
