    There's a cash shop in a game that already costs full price. If you pay full price for a game you should be given access to all content.

    Ubisoft are so afraid of offending anyone that they act on single Twitter posts and change the game's content. Grow a pair, stand for the content you make and stop changing things because some re**** deems them to be politically incorrect.

    The game has no DirectX 11 support so if you have an older GPU though luck, you can't play the game and not because your GPU can't run it but because the devs had to pull all the tricks in the book to make it run on consoles and PC players ended up suffering the consequences from a copy paste port. Shame.

    If Odyssey was Origins 2.0 which improved everything that an already solid game had, now we're back at the beginning with Valhalla being Origins 0.5.

    After the first couple of hours with a smooth transfer between animations and cinematic gameplay in a setting that looks interesting even despite the fact that for the past 5 years everything seems to be about Norse history and mythology, everything suddenly changes into a painfully boring routine of filler story arcs with the main story being present only for a few minutes after you finish one of them, before you start another, and from the half of the game not even that anymore.

    Valhalla is an awfully lengthy game with a progressive reduction in quality of just about everything the more time you spend with it, making it feel like your favorite sitcom that turned to trash after 5 seasons, but you still put up with it because of how much time you've already spent watching it.
    I was glad that Ubisoft at least improves their reskinned sequels, because Watch Dogs 2, Odyssey, and even The Division 2 turned out to be solid games, where the developers learned from their mistakes, but somehow it's not the case anymore, and I have no explanation why these third installments using the same formula are failing again in even those aspects and mechanics that were already fixed.    … Expand

Comparing the characters to Kassandra for example, they are too much of a lifeless brute, you cannot feel for them. I heard historical accuracy something as an argument but that is completely BS from Ubisoft when you think about how much SF is in the game. The world is too boring, you don't find very interesting characters along the way, there are too many "secrets" that you are taunted to discover just to see a bunch of resources and too many skill points and a big skill point tree that can get hard to follow. The "puzzles" are extremely repetitive too and one of the worst things of all is how meaningless assassinating an order member is. Most of the times you can find order members just going about their life totally unprotected and they are so easy to kill that you can do it by shooting an arrow at them while running. In their purgatory style confrontation they give you the usual generic remark about how good they feel that they did something important. I haven't finished the game yet but I have covered about 75% of the zones. I still hope that it can deliver the wow/wtf moment.
    The only positive thing is that you get to see some cool medieval scenery if you are a sucker for that like me.    … Expand

    I've had the game at minimum crash 5 times, at least 2 times taking screenshots with UPlay, and another 3 just existing in the world. Sometimes, bows do not fire at all when you press left click.

    Guards will respawn in an area you have cleared if you are not actively in combat, and seemingly more than about 50 meters away. This makes clearing out an area, then hunting for loot without interuption a pain in the ass, in larger settlements especially.

    Petite critique d'Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Je suis (étais?) grand fan de la série, mais avec cet opus, c'est la douche froide.

    Malheureusement, ce jeu est avant tout un RPG viking et non un Assassin's Creed. Je pense que les bonnes notes attribuées à ce jeu viennent de joueurs qui voulaient avant tout un RPG de viking. Mais au point de vue AC, je suis fort déçu : Au point de vue    Petite critique d'Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Je suis (étais?) grand fan de la série, mais avec cet opus, c'est la douche froide.

    Malheureusement, ce jeu est avant tout un RPG viking et non un Assassin's Creed. Je pense que les bonnes notes attribuées à ce jeu viennent de joueurs qui voulaient avant tout un RPG de viking. Mais au point de vue AC, je suis fort déçu :

    Au point de vue narratif, y'a peu d'élément AC. Vu que la confrérie est bien établie à cette période-là, on aurait pu penser qu'on allait avoir une histoire bien encré dans le myhtos des Assassins. Mais ce n'est pas le cas. On incarne un viking dont la motivation première est d'établir sa colonie et de forger des alliances. Il faut attendre plus de 20h pour que l'histoire devienne (un peu) intéressante au niveau lore AC.
    Le coté infiltration est encore un peu plus nerfé. Non seulement, y'a beaucoup de phase qui oblige les combats corps à corps (raid, assaut, ...) mais ils ont en plus enlevé des compétences et objets liés à l'infiltration. L'infiltration est toujours possible par moment, mais beaucoup moins jouissif du coup.

    Au niveau RPG, c'est devenu fort limité aussi. Odyssey avait ses défauts, mais avait le mérite de proposer un RPG complet, très riche au niveau contenu, et des mécaniques bien ficelées. La comparaison fait mal :

    Un système de loot et de crafting très (trop) limité, remplacé par du grinding, pour avoir des équipement/ ressources, il faut aller là où il y a un point doré, chercher l'accès à un coffre, et espérer qu'il contienne ce qu'il nous faut. Ca devient vite répétitif et lassant.Je peux comprendre avoir retirer le loot pour les soldats de base, mais ils auraient du garder pour les "élites". Même un zealot ne donne rien d'intéressant comme loot, du coup, on n'a pas vraiement de motivation à leur faire la chasse.
    Plus de vrai quêtes annexes. Remplacé par des "world event" fini en 5 minute qui n'ont pas vraiment d'intérêt. En dehors de la quête principale, la seul raison de voyager sur la carte, c'est les points dorées qui, on espère, nous donnera les ressources qu'il nous manque... Ce manque des quêtes annexes provoque non seulement un manque de développement narratif par rapport à Evior et ses compagnons, mais aussi un sentiment de" vide" par rapport à la carte. C'est pas qu'il n'y rien à faire, c'est qu'il n'y a rien d'interessant (impactfull) à faire.
    Système de level supprimé pour les armes. On a encore des stats, mais sans level affiché, c'est difficile à dire si une attaque à 64 est bien ou non par rapport à notre niveau.. idem pour les armures. C'est extrêmement confus...
    Arbres à compétences ou en avance à l'aveuglette... On progresse au hasard plutôt que par stratégie ou par volonté de progresser vers un gameplay que l'on aime.
    Système de némessis supprimé, alors qu'il apportait un gameplay assez intéressant sur Odyssey. Comme mentionné, par rapport au zealots, y'a aucune motivation d'aller les tués. Y'a pas d'aspect narratif, y'a pas de loot, et y'a pas de système "némessis" comme dans Odyssey... Et c'est surement pas le gameplay qui va me pousser à afronter ces sac-à-pv !

    Bref, niveau RPG, perso je n'y trouve pas mon compte non plus.

    Pour le reste du jeu, encore beaucoup de défaut aussi :
    des bugs qui gâchent l'immersion;
    des ennemis sac-à-pv qui en plus se soignent. Ca rend les combats long et ennuyeux.
    des NPC qui font un 180° niveau personnalité en l'espace d'une conversation.
    Une impression de "déjà vu" omni-présante, que cela soit au niveau scénario ou des concepts du jeu. Certaines choses venant d'ancien AC, mais beaucoup d’inspiration prise ailleurs aussi. Peu de choses originales à se mettre sous la dent...
    Des QTE... En 2020, ça fait tâche...
    La traditionnelle mission sans équipement... Ca fait très "old-school" (dans le mauvais sens du terme)...

    Au final, je me suis rendu compte que je me forçais à jouer, et que j'y prenais pas de plaisir. Je le finirai surement un jour, mais en attendant, j'ai de meilleurs jeux qui m'attendent.

    Enfin, bref, AC était une licence que j'achetais les yeux fermés, et j'avais d'ailleurs pre-commandées les éditions collectors des trois derniers opus... mais maintenant, j'y réfléchirais à deux fois avant d'investir mon temps et mon argent dans les prochaines éditions...    … Expand

    It feels like you are playing a beta version. AI and combat are just awful. Always the same moves and finishes, enemies hitting the air or allies getting lost. Overall it feels grotesquely innatural.

    Story wise I am the most upset as the there is not really one. The game evolves around you going to the different kingdoms to make Allies with the leaders there by doing quests for them and then you return to your base and move onto the next.
    Historically we dont know very much about Vikings as they where illiterate and didnt right down there story's so this gave Ubisoft a clean slate to do whatever they want and they choose to do the bare minimum i feel. Characters like Ivvor the boneless, who was the most famous viking to ever live is a nobody in this game existing only to be a small amount of comic relief, they dont even have an interpretation to why he was called the boneless which was a major lost opportunity that carries over to every aspect of this game with everything being half ass.
    I am also very tired of the god awful modern world story the keep forcing into every game, Ghost of Tsushima proved you can tell a story with game play like this without trying to be too weird and whacky but the animus stuff in this game makes me skip want to skip the cutscenes and just get back to the Viking stuff.

    Character customization is very weak with there not being any real Viking style clothes and Armour to wear. All the outfits look the same with similar colors except for the store items you need to buy with real money that are really wacky and out there.

    I've tried three times to play this game, but it's impossible for me and this is my favorite genre. Everything feels plastic, dull and artificial in such a way that there is no immersion whatsoever. Voice acting is bad, lips sync is at Playstation 2 level, the sounds that they have recorded for this game are at a low bitrate, repetitive and have no depth. There is no spatial sound for a 2020-2021 game, you just can't figure out from which side the sounds are coming. Eivor voice covers every other sound in the stage and it's louder then everyone else's. These are not bugs to be fixed, it's just the way the game's sound engine has been created, more like the ones in games from 20 years ago.
    I have nothing to complain about graphics, they are ok, there is also a fake HDR and overall the performance is similar to Odiseey.
    The gameplay however is plain and dull, repetitive, doing the same raids over and over to gather resources which is so boring. Ubisoft managed to peak at Odiseey and I thought that Valhalla can at least be at that level, but no, it's a much worse game in every way. Too bad I payed for it. Ubisoft is dead for me with this one. I'll never buy another game from them from now on.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I just want to say. That I love Norse mythology. I literally tutored kids about it( and Greek Mythology)

    I loved Odyssey ( it got me back playing AC after Black Flag) so when I saw that is one was about the Norse gods and Vikings; I was so excited. I pre-ordered the game (120.00 dollars) which Is something I rarely do.

    I have played it for over 60 hours. I only play maybe an hour or 2 at a time, because I honestly get so bored and tired of it, that I have to quit.

    I am bored as hell with it. I regret pre-ordering it. I wouldn’t even play 60 dollars for this game.

    I am literally forcing myself to play, ( and finish) because of the money I spent on it.

    I hate that there is almost no loot. ( I love loot). Yes I explored. I got all the main loot( I looked it up online to make sure I didn’t miss any), and it still isn’t enough.

    I hate that they took almost all the “sidequests” out of the game. What they call sidequests are too short( most are a 2 minutes or less) and most are forgettable. The exploring was boring. I have most of the map cleared now, and it wasn’t worth it, honestly. I liked some mystery events ( I refuse to call them side quests). Like the old man at the edge of the cliff. He was funny. I liked the wolf one. I like the “Have seen this man” one. But the exploring and the events are forgettable.

    I hate the longships “ customization”. I can’t choose my raiders or put a theme to it.( I like being able to choose all Artemis Daughters on Odyssey)

    The climbing is horrible. I have glitched over 30 times and had to shut down the game with task manager, also I can’t drop down half the time. Plus half the time the character does something I didn’t want. Like diving down when I want to climb up. Or jumping the wrong way. Overall it’s clunky and not smooth. I even get stuck/frozen just from running sometimes. The combat is not great. They changed the buttons and it doesn’t feel smooth. I do like the double axe throw and the valkyrie skill.

    The audio is awful. Between the muffle voices and interrupting and overlapping voices. It’s not great.

    The skills tree is not great either. I miss all my cool abilities ( that I can choose).

    Also the raven is not as helpful as the other eagle. I can’t even tag targets. I do not have great eye-sight and eagle was better at helping.

    The drinking game is cool, but when It starts to get blurry and dizzy it hurts my eyes and I can’t finish the drinking game. ( Their should be an option to turn that part off)

    Almost all of the characters are forgettable and have no heart, soul or personality.

    Plus all the Bugs( including both annoying ones and game breaking) , but that’s in all games, unfortunately.

    Odyssey did the loot, ships and even the sidequests ( the main ones, not the message boards) better.

    Overall, once I force myself in to finish this game. I will NOT be replaying it. ( I replay most games at least 3 times)

    I’m am happy that some people like/love it though. Its just not for me.

Beginning For some kind of asexual being and then choosing the gender (male), I remained the same creature. I didn't even understand it should be so or not. Open world: boring but beautiful. The only thing you can do is just kiss the other man's and capture villages where sometimes my partners ran to the roosters and did not leave from there. it strained. and sometimes my allies arranged marriage carousels with opponents grappling and spinning around. character: womens leashes and with him They are treated like a woman and he can kiss a man himself. Is the tribal leader a WOMAN? What the **** Ubisoft when the tribal leader was a woman. feminism is already quite ahuel. The clouds are flickering with the **** in this world. boats are spinning in the air, fighting scenes seem to be cool and it seems like only 3 animations for finishing moves. though The ax began to feel. In short, this part is too Bad in terms of everything. There are many bugs, historical lies. And the game is too overpriced.

    Forget about going Steal, you'll end up spotted by a random guard behind a wall or more.
    Fight them all straight forward, you'll win time overall.

    you have blinded guard, sniper guard able to hit you at 300meters,
    Infinite aggro, Guard running like Usain Bolt...

    The disappointment is huge...

    Have you bought fullprice game? Now buy grinding resources and XP accelerator (they rework balance after release and now it makes actually buy XP). Classic Ubisoft.

    It was a good game until recently. With patch 1.1 - the balance is terrible, ruining the whole game, forcing the player to pay money. I bought the game for $ 60, you cannot extort more money from me to buy experience for a broken balance. This is blatant theft and fraud. Ubisoft scammers.

    Im now done with the main story and it was a real pain.

    Con: - many quests bugged, i skipped the mysterys after ~15 bugs where i needed to reload (completed like ~50) - the sound is awful, i never had any swimming sounds and the echo is a pain - boring combat, after you killed some with every weapon its all in all just boring. the npcs are just stupid (even on hardest difficulty) and    Im now done with the main story and it was a real pain.

    Con:
    - many quests bugged, i skipped the mysterys after ~15 bugs where i needed to reload (completed like ~50)
    - the sound is awful, i never had any swimming sounds and the echo is a pain
    - boring combat, after you killed some with every weapon its all in all just boring. the npcs are just stupid (even on hardest difficulty) and the execute animations are just frustrating after time
    - nearly no rewarding loot or any interesting stuff to get (was bay better in the last AC's)
    - follow quests (please just stop it ubisoft, its boring if you spend the first half of the way with boring dialogues and half speed and then rush the rest of the way)
    - climbing/mount is on some points just a real pain in the a**. your mount swings randomly in any directions on stairs; wont stop after calling him twice because he wont spawn so you cant place a knocked npc on your mount; climbing in general is just awful on some surroundings
    - story is meh at some points
    - skilltree is a joke in my eyes
    - lack of stuff to spend silver on
    - and again: bugfest! fix it ubisoft! no fix since 2 weeks!

    pro:
    - setting overall is just beautiful
    - some hidden stuff is nice to explore
    - voice of eivor is really good
    - music is good
    - interesting ending

    Played all the assassins creed games up to this one was a big fan of the series but this is by far the worst in the series for me, the god awful combat in this game and janky graphic glitches that happen like hanging from thin air to getting stuck in the ground while crouching, never mind the CTD's that happen.

Everywhere in the game artificial obstacles have been built in, like stupid puzzles, doors that can only be opened from the inside, winding corridors that are hard to find out of and uninspiring main characters. Ubisoft apparently wanted to please the old fans of the first Assasins Creed parts by adding more puzzle parts to the game. Unfortunately exactly this completely destroys the game flow. I'm really annoyed that I bought the gold edition for over 90 € as a pre-order. I will sell my Ubisoft shares. It's a shame, I was so looking forward to the game. The review of Gamestar is the most honest here. The game is really not worth more than 74 points. And the guys can't get the bugs under control.… Expand

I could for instance not play in 1440p on lowest without dipping below 60 fps. Now i have a 3090, and i can finally not only have memory enough to not play on lowest, but also performance needed to be anywhere with at least 60 fps.

    Combat: The combat however doesn't entirely feel right. It has too much emphasis on open and large combats. Assassins Creed franchise is more about subtly assassinations in the shadows, but this game opens up to full raids. which is what occurred during the Viking raids.

    Theme of the game: The game also isn't about an assassin, but Eivor, a Viking that meets an assassin and shares a common cause, so they work together, and Eivor does an assassin's work.

    Theme of the story: The game is quite based around drama, and for me at least, i have not been able to come more than 50% story wise. But that doesn't mean it's bad by any means. Just less appealing for us who doesn't like over the top drama

    The gear: This is the part that truly burned me out on open world games for a good while. There's way too much artificial inflation of how long it takes to gear properly up, with several micro materials needed to upgrade a gear piece at least once. So i cheated my way to get "infinite" resources to max out every gear.

    So overall, i either think Ubisoft needs to make a choice and either have Assassins Creed split it's game up to 2 parts. One which focuses on assassins, and a second franchise that takes over where Valhalla started. Be a history telling game. And perhaps have the split series still relevant to each other, where you play as whoever future character will be involved and collaborating with the assassins, and the main franchise that focuses on the proper descendants of the ISU, Eivor might have been a reincarnation, but focus more of the assassins creed itself with direct descendants of the ISU for the main characters to delve much deeper into the history/prophecy of the ISU.

    So overall score is not good, but not bad either. It has great entertainment value, but falls short of it's premise, combat to some extent, the way too much microgrid and replayability.    … Expand

I was expecting Ubisoft to improve on Odyssey by taking on the better points from Origins. Unfortunately, the game is badly executed. Lackluster story overall, far too long for its own good. Everything is pretty much repetitive aftert 2-3 regions, as a Completionist at heart, I couldn't get myself to finish everything, midway in the game, I started rushing things a bit to get it over with. I would say this is a big downgrade from Odyssey and Origins on many aspects, even on the fighting mechanics. If anything, It felt as if Ubisoft was making this game as a beta test for a future AC MMORPG game, with the collections, daily and weekly quests along with "Mastery tower", which is a ripoff from WoW or FF14. You would know a good game if you would play the game again for reliving the experience, but unfortunately in this game, you are already fed up midway.

    Now, I would usually rate this as a 6, since it is still an "acceptable game" and as biased I am as a AC fan, I have to force my hand and give it a max of 4. Why you may ask? Glitches/bugs everywhere, game crashes every few hours, stuck NPC, your own character stuck(happened 11 times unintentionally), bugged quests and mysteries which won't complete. I never had to manually save/load a game "just in case things mess up". I waited deliberately over 1 year to purchase this game in the hope I would play a polished version, but oh boy was I wrong, all I see is an endless list of Realmoney purchases in store and a game that is barely playable.

    Other AC games got you immersed for hours on time, this game felt like a tormenting chore that you are impatiently waiting to finish. Normally I would buy an AC game without a hesitation, but I would surely check many reviews before purchasing the next one. Next game is coming in November of 2022, I will wait till 2024 before deciding to buy it out on a discount and hopefully this will be a better experience.

    Do NOT buy this game unless you get a 70% discount on it, its not worth it.    … Expand

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a great-looking open-world game with impressive landscapes and cinematography. However, the checklist collectible open-world still needs some work to feel truly engaging, and combat is too tedious and too frequent to be compelling. As a lapsed fan of Assassin's Creed trying to see if I can click with the series once again, Valhalla didn't quite hook me as I was hoping it would.

    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.

    Sneaking is fun, fighting is fun, walking through the great outdoors is so much fun. Sightseeing too! Valhalla is free minded and could be innovative, but lacks skills to persuade its players about that. [Issue#308]
