    AC: Valhalla doesn't exactly re-invent the formula, but i think for now it's a good thing.
    They fixed what went wrong with Odyssey and brought back missing elements while making story, characters and world better. With next one they need to do some complete overhaul, but Valhalla is good beginning for next era Assassin's Creed games.

    Ubisoft really did well with this one, been at least 3 years when i actually enjoyed their games. Odyssey was fine, but boring really fast. Valhalla feels like breath of fresh air.

    Okay, this game is really good : great open-world, multiple side-quests - it's a well made singleplayer rpg. The problem is... that it is not an Assassin's Creed game. Stealth? Forget about it. After 5 hours of grinding gear / xp you are basically too powerfull for that. You can just walk inside a "well protected" stronghold, kill everybody inside, get your loot and get out.

You can just walk inside a "well protected" stronghold, kill everybody inside, get your loot and get out. "But what if i really want to go stealth?". Well, you can! But there is another problem. Parkour is non-existent. Of course, you can climb on the tower etc. but your character will just get stuck, glitch and you will be detected. Okay then, what about assassinations? If you want to assassinate anyone in this game, you have to be either on at least their level, or have a special skill, that you can unlock in a skill tree. Look , i am not saying that this game is bad, it is just not good Assassin's Creed game.… Expand

    Generally it's not nearly as bad some people pretend it to be, i have a feeling these people haven't even tried it. Watching two youtube videos doesn't count. Map is big, there's a lot stuff to do.

    Positives: It looks pretty good and it has some nice RP elements that break the monotony and present variety in objectives and game play. Combat feels great when it's not infested with bugs like my late grandma's garden.

    Negatives: IT'S SO FULL OF BUGS. This should be a beta release at best. My character died to bugs more than enemies (hard difficulty).

Movement somehow feels worse than previous games. I hate the level progression system. Combat feels good 50% of the time. Decided to just play the main story and then I had to uninstall out of frustration. The story itself is fine, but the main character feels so inconsistent at times. I don't feel like cheering on for him/her.    … Expand

That alone shows that people who are part of gaming at least understand and acknowledge that it is well made video game!

    Whoever dislikes this game is not real Assassin's Creed fan. It's a fact! This game has every element that makes AC game and it's a good one at that. And if someone dislikes it because it has big map not just one city then maybe time travel back to 2010 or something, because 2020 clearly isn't for you. Every game is doing it.

Odyssey problem wasn't big map, Odyssey problem was too much pointless content and grinding, that's all gone in Valhalla. What's left is interesting and meaninful content and no grinding. Valhalla has two big maps and England has many cities where parkour is possible, very similar to Unity. Overall very good game. Unity was nice, but Black Flag did huge map even before Unity. Valhalla has best of both worlds. Even tho i really like Unity, it got bit boring after a while. That's why i like big maps where you can go somewhere else than city, you are not restricted in that one area.… Expand

    This idea of going back in time to different eras got me into this series in first place. Everything else comes second to me, i could endlessly free roam for hours and just check every corner, parkour on stuff. Amazing. But to everyone who wants bloody action, it's all there, always been in every AC.

    I had already lost all hope and basically gave up on Ubisoft, because last year they failed completely and Odyssey wasn't best, it was okay. Far cry 5 was again...just fine. I don't even wanna talk about Ghost Recon..uhh. Anyway, somehow they managed to make good Assassin's Creed game and i'm kinda on board again. For the love of god i hope Far Cry 6 is good, because i like both of these series.

    Darker tone reminds me Unity and i love Unity, Parkour is better than last 2 games, Big open world and story remind me Black Flag and i love Black Flag. It has two maps, not one, that's first time they have done that. You can swim underwater just like in Odyssey and there' stuff to discover underwater, on land and underground. One of the better games of 2020 imo.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 93% completion took roughly 104 hours of in-game gameplay time, with some Orlog, or drinking challenge remaining.
    Some possible spoilers will be in this review, so if you did not play the game yet, I advise you to look elsewhere.

    Positives:

    -First off let me start off with the story. Personally, I found the story really well written, and engaging, no matter if you played as Layla or Eivor. The modern arc, which I really did not like in Origins, and Odyssey took a turn to the better, with some plot twist, that are albeit somewhat predictable if you do the Animus Anomaly mysteries, but nonetheless, are surprising. (If you want to be surprised then do the Animus Anomalies after completing the main story, to truly understand what happened to the Isu gods)

    -After that we have gameplay, smooth combat, rewarding stealth mechanics, and a variety of abilities, that feel much more rewarding to unlock than in Odyssey. I also really like the addition of the stamina bar in combat, which can limit the amount of attacks, or rolls you are able to do. In Odyssey, I spent most of my time rolling in combat, but parrying in this game feels more rewarding, as a good parry not only staggers the enemy, but also it can deal damage, and make it easier for you to do a stun attack or a stomp kill.

    -Much better gear system, with less full inventories, but with a good upgrading system.

    -The game's optimizations are really good. I have an i5 6500, and a GTX 1070 in a 4-5 year old system, but it handled the game really well, rarely dripping below 60 fps in intense combat situations such as raiding a monastery, or taking a castle.

    Negatives:

    -Why aren't there any one handed swords in this game?

    -Bugs, but that can be fixed when a patch comes.

    -Hardest difficulty can feel easy.

    -However an SSD is required for the game to run smoothly. I played on an HDD myself, and the load times were awfully long, the worst one being travelling to Asgard/Jotunheim, which took almost 5 minutes, with a freshly defragmented HDD.

    In conclusion:
    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a well worth game to put your money on, considering it gave me 104 hours of playtime for 48 Euros, which is less than half of an Euro for an hour of gameplay, which is a really good time considering Demon's Souls took 23 hour to complete (Although, that was 23 really enjoyable hour) for 60 euros. It is well worth the price for anyone longing for a great viking adventure, or if he is a fan of the series.    … Expand

    This is good, i mean it. But Far Cry 6 needs to be something completely new, they can't make another Far Cry 5, NO, because we already have that game. It has to stand out, it has to be different, if it isn't, delay it already! And next wave of Ubisoft games needs to have complete re-invention in 2022-2023. Stuff like Prince of Persia remake with weak animations needs to be gone, forever.This is good, i mean it.

Valhalla is first good step into the future of Ubisoft, it's really well done game, but now things need to go even further. Really DEEPLY focus on writing, Valhalla is good, go even more deep! Invest more into your products, you have good directors, give them all the freedom the need! I know you can make good stuff, you have done it past, you can do it again, i really believe it.
    I believe in you Ubisoft, because i have really liked some of your games (AC 4 Black Flag, AC Unity (after patches obviously), Far Cry 3 and even some Ghost Recon Games, even Watch Dogs 1 was good, even tho it wasn't perfect. I would hate to see you go down like this. What you did in 2019 is unforgivable, but every company messes up at times, In fact all your games have better writing than Fallout 4 or Fallout 76, not that it's good comparison, but just saying. But you need to take Rockstar as your inspiration and i feel, in a way you already do. That's good! Just focus on quality, fix more bugs before release and just do good games. That's all it takes. I'm so far loving Valhalla and i have high hopes for Far Cry 6 and future of Ubisoft, Please don't let me and all your fans down!    … Expand

For instance there is a bug that will literally delete your weapon if you pull out a torch while dual wielding. This bug has been reported for weeks and Ubisoft has yet to fix it.

Valhalla has been very enjoyable so far, i'm impressed with graphics, but also soundtrack. Just this main menu music alone might be one of the best they have done. Of course Black Flag had different vibe and i like both games music equally.

    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:

    - 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

    all in all i dont know why i kept playing this bad version of assassins creed....    … Expand

    Main story is surprisingly good and so are side activities. After Odyssey that was pretty terrible and i had me expectations really low, because i wasn't honestly expecting anything good anymore. This one really surprised me. Open world has also so much better design than Odyssey. More and more i play it, it's not even average, Valhalla is one one best in the series!

    Very enjoyable Assassin's Creed entry, i almost gave up after Odyssey because it just got boring. It had nice graphics for 2018, but story was lame and it had too much grinding. But Valhalla turns this ship around completely. Grinding is gone, older AC elements are back, map design is so much better than Odyssey, story is solid, voice acting is good. Would very much recommend trying this!

    Starts of great, but game just drags. If you need your rpg fix, play it. the first 20-30 hours, its worth the price. But after that it just gets grindy.

    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.

    Overall dont get this game unless its half off as its nothing special.    … 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.

    Very fun game. I tried Odyssey before, but leveling took way too long and it just didn't click with me, but Valhalla is different and better. Leveling is actually fast, you get 2 skill points instead of 1 and you get them very often so you can build your power level rather quickly. Nothing stops you moving on with story anymore. World is also designed better than Odyssey.

    cairn gameplay is bad
    fishing is long and useless, i mean for 100% i need fish for mystery, its just annoying, in 1hours yesterday i got only one, and i know where to find them...

    The only positive thing in this game is the remove of level because ubisoft don't know how to deal with. I remember in origins when i was 10 on a 6-8 zone and got a lvl7 quest from reda asking me to kill bandits who had skull because too much high level in the same zone    … Expand

    Haters who don't even own this game and fill this user score with their pathetic excuses why they hate this game and 0 scores can give up. Assassin's Creed fans won.

    Ubisoft is one of the most important gaming companies ever. That's absolute fact and absolutely nothing will change that. They release multiple games every single year, every year. Obviously not everything hits the mark, but at least they are constantly doing stuff.

Then there's this group of idiots who sht on all their games, while at the same time hyping up companies that release 2 games in ten fcking years. Ten years. It's not me hating on "CDprojectred", hell no, i like them very much. My point is that without Ubisoft, gaming landscape would be incredibly empty. Imagine world without Far Cry's Assassin's Creed's, Watch Dogs, Ghost Recon's, Division's, Rainbow Six and so many more. There has to be some company that makes AAA games while these other companies makes two games in 10 years. How is it so hard to understand? Without Ubisoft there would be basically nothing, but endless multiplayer games and "Marvel's Avenger's" type of trash. That's not the world i wanna live in. I wanna live in world full of tons of different games each year. Of course there's also this bunch on sonyfanboys (again not talking about people who own playstation, talking about fanboys, i own playstation as well) that act like only games worth playing are console exclusives, that let's be honest are usually story simulators full of endless cutscenes, these are more movies than games, i personally want actual games ya know (and yes there are also good ones like Bloodborne.)
    Everyone acts like life lasts forever and it's cool to endlessly whine about some companies while waiting 10 years for a game from another company. All we have is 100 years (usually way less) and then it's over. Forever. So instead of constant whining, either enjoy the game or just don't play it, if you don't like it. It's that simple.    … Expand

    Amazing game! i will support and play this game for years to come with all my heart. If you give it anything less than 7 go to hell. I wouldn't even talk with you in real life, you literally don't exist for me. I'm done with Ubisoft haters, forever.

    Okay i have to get this out. I'm getting psychically tired of people hating Ubisoft. Like it's not even funny anymore. I'm just completely done with this. For some reason this "group of people" thinks it's completely fine to sht on their games every year. But when Rockstar fcks up or milks their game for 7 years, everyone is just silent. That's just complete hypocrisy on so many levels. ByOkay i have to get this out. I'm getting psychically tired of people hating Ubisoft. Like it's not even funny anymore.

But when Rockstar fcks up or milks their game for 7 years, everyone is just silent. That's just complete hypocrisy on so many levels. By the way i'm saying all this, while Rockstar is one of my favorite gaming companies, but i'm honest, unlike these losers who think it's fine to hate Ubisoft. Unlike other companies Ubisoft ALWAYS releases their games Day 1 on EVERY platform. Rockstars takes 1-2 maybe 3 years for PC version and they STILL fcked up with RDR2 PC version. Nobody shakes a head. Ubisoft releases not perfect, but perectly playable (at least with any RTX card) game and people whine and complain like it's worst thing that has ever happened. It's just insanely, insanely pathetic how these absolute losers act. I literally hate them, i'm not even hiding it. If you are Ubisoft hater, i hate you. There was this one person on youtube comparing Valhalla graphics to 2013 game and saying it looks like sht. That's complete, absolute next level lies. From graphical standpoint this game looks incredible. I'm just so done with this hate and it has to change, something has to change.… Expand

    Лучшая Assassin's Creed за последние 10 лет для меня лично. Старая формула изрядно надоела и я не могу играть в игры серии уже начиная с 3 части и на 4 с Ассасинами мы распрощались. И каково же было удивление, когда я запустил Вальгаллу.

Старая формула изрядно надоела и я не могу играть в игры серии уже начиная с 3 части и на 4 с Ассасинами мы распрощались. И каково же было удивление, когда я запустил Вальгаллу.
    С очевидных плюсов:
    1. Мир
    2. Сюжет (как же хорош сценарий в этой игре, как в отдельных территориях, так и общий сюжет игры),
    3. Персонажи (местный Ивар гораздо интереснее и проработаннее Ивара из одного известного сериала).
    4. Сеттинг (9-век показан здорово и правдоподобно, но не более, с исторической реальностью имеет мало общего и является больше псевдоисторичным. И тем не менее, сделано так, что хочется верить).
    5. Система лута (как же она хороша)
    6. Система прогрессии
    7. Боевка
    Минусы:
    1. Графика в общем приятная, но не для 2020
    2. Анимация (и если графика ещё приятная, то анимация это вообще позор какой-то).
    3. Катитесь в ад со своим донатом в сингловой игре (но его хотя бы не навязывают).
    4. "При убийстве мирных жителей вас ждёт рассинхронизация"?????
    5. Моментами (не всегда) слишком гуманные викинги
    В общем, объективная оценка 8, но балл накинул за то, что теперь я могу играть в АС и это радует. Такие дела    … 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]
