    Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is the best open world RPG this year. It’s colorful locals are a joy to discover, combat and stealth feel deep and rewarding, and there’s a viking hoard of things to do.

    Valhalla is a truly authentic Viking experience, and quite possibly the best and most complete Assassin's Creed game in the series' current "Open-World RPG" phase.

    Everybody has their Assassin's Creed. Mine might still be the pirate's life in Black Flag. But Valhalla is basically Vikings vs. knights, filling out the other two sides of my personal trifecta. The assassinations might've gone soft, but the northern European world building hits hard.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla provides a gorgeous playground to explore with excellent combat. Though the story seems unnecessarily long, it's a fun Viking tale mixed with the series' own flare and sci-fi elements.

    Assassins Creed Valhalla is a lot of fun and easy to sink dozens of hours into. It is the best entry in the more recent trilogy and genuinely elevates the gameplay mechanics. Content could be considered somewhat bloated still, but it is diverse enough and the setting and story is solid most of the way through.

    Ubisoft did what had to be done, made the game easier in some respects, tweaked some details and added others. As a whole, even with all its deficiencies, the game is a joyous place to spend your time in.

    Even without the Aegean sparkle of Odyssey, this is an idyllic tapestry for Ubisoft’s artists. This sunlight streaming through the clouds, bathing rich greed fields and vine-covered ruins and burgeoning cathedrals in its golden benediction! Ubisoft’s artists are to open world games what Richard II is to words, and their talent shines throughout Valhalla’s England: this sceptered isle, this earth of majesty, this other Eden, demi-paradise, this little world, this precious stone set in the silver sea, this blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England. So what if it’s not as good as Odyssey? I’ll take it!

There's so much to do, voice acting is great, story is great, graphics are amazing. It's going to be something i'm gonna play until cyberpunk comes out. There's not much else anyway. Not interested at all in spiderman dlc. Expand

    Поиграл 2 часа. В принципе игра неплохая, если закрыть глаза на то, что это очередной миллиардный ассасин. Прогресс, по сравнению с истокамиПоиграл 2 часа. В принципе игра неплохая, если закрыть глаза на то, что это очередной миллиардный ассасин. Прогресс, по сравнению с истоками есть. Больше не обязательно проходить побочки, чтобы играть в сюжетку. Графон улучшился, что очень логично. На моё удивление, улучшилась и оптимизация. Нынешний сеттинг мне больше нравится. Также можно включить автоматическое управление кораблём. На этом плюсы заканчиваются, дальше идут минусы. Управление с прилипанием к любой поверхности во время паркура, при чём таким, что хрен отлипнешь. Сюжет, что логично бледный и неинтересный. Куча гринда, даже, если считать сюжетку. Игра скучная. Также, в этой игре куча багов, например, я просто хожу по лесу, и тут бац, и на меня с неба падает нпс. Ну и, естественно, самый главный минус - то, что это по сути предыдущий ассасин с минимальными улучшениями. Expand
