In this 2018 GDC talk, Ubisoft's Jean-Marie Santoni-Costantini explains how the mission system in Assassin's Creed Origins was changed from a scripted approach to a goal-oriented one.

It was a fascinating look inside the technical process of redesigning one of the core systems of Assassin's Creed, and Santoni-Costantini offered a bevy of behind-the-scenes insights and lessons learned that should be applicable to a broad variety of projects.

If you didn't have a chance to see it live (or you just want to refresh yourself) take advantage of the fact that this talk is now watchable for free over on the official GDC YouTube channel!
