The blacksmith does not show up on your map, and he is the only place to upgrade your weapons which you will need because you can die pretty quick. I finally find the blacksmith in the new land and I can't even talk to him. Audio is constantly glitching, people starting their next sentence before the next begins, it's just sad. And the aurora looks insanely pixelated, how does Skyrim have 100x a better sky???

    *also you cannot zoom in far enough to the map, so symbols can overlap and confuse you, opposite experience of Far Cry 5    … Expand

    The combat is fine, it doesnt really feel challenging nor is there a lot of skill expression.

    The map is beautiful and exploration would be fun if you actually got any meaningful rewards from it but they made loot so rare that you almost never find a cool weapon or armor upgrade.

    Overall not a good game unfortunately and I feel like I wasted a lot of time with it.

    Also there were alot of bugs, one which forced me to restart.    … Expand

    Overall - 3/5
    The gameplay was enjoyable at first, but not deep or complex enough to hold up over the extraordinary length of the game. Combat was good, but became repetitive. Visual were stunning in my opinion.

Более 110 часов геймплея! 110 ЧАСОВ!!! И это только необходимый СЮЖЕТ! Не говорю об уничтожении всех членов ордена Древних, для того что бы закончить историю. Я эту игру проходил почти год, даже консоль не выдержала, сгорела. Пришлось в ремонт отдавать.
    Теперь о самой игре.
    Ну геймплейно и графически по сути это всё тот же AC Origins. В игре изменили систему прокачки, теперь она больше похожа на аналогичную в Skyrim. Открывая перки ты двигаешься к ним по древу умений постепенно прокачивая своё здоровье, защиту, атаку и т. д.
    Доспехи теперь можно объединять в сеты, как в Dark Souls. Это даже даёт минимальные плюшки к защите. Но, при этом, ни оружие, ни доспехи продать нельзя. Ты их находишь и носишь с собой до окончания игры. Так же у всего этого добра есть прокачка для которой требуются определённые ресурсы. Но с этим связан некий казус. Например я нашёл супер копьё легендарного уровня (в игре их 4 вида: хорошее, превосходное, безупречное и легендарное. Разница в силе и количестве рун) на 30! уровне. Мне надо было только вложиться в его усиление и я получил читерское оружие уровне на 50том, с которым я почти всю игру и прошел. Да теперь у самого оружия нет уровня владения, если нашёл можешь пользоваться любым.
    Сюжет можно сказать интересный, но очень затянутый. Поначалу пытался брать доп. миссии, но потом забил на это дело так как и сюжетных такая уйма, что просто игра может затянуться часов на 200 или больше. А с данным подходом всё прохождение превратится в тупую рутину.
    Ещё я достиг 375 уровня и у меня было открыто практически всё древо прокачки и проходить доп. задания просто смысла не было.
    О приятном. В отличии от Odyssey где ты мог заняться сексом буквально с каждым продавцом, в Valhalla всяких лгбт элементов стало в разы меньше. Хотя иногда можно начать романтическую линию как с мужчиной, так и с женщиной. Ещё чернокожих викингов я не заметил, но есть викинги-азиаты.
    С женщинами как всегда в западном зазеркалье: в игре они все великие и честные воины, даже если бывают врагами. Предатели, трусы и воры только яйценосцы.
    Ещё, как я понял, авторы просто уже не знают как и куда прилепить этот "Анимус" и наше время, но концовка всё же интригует.
    Ещё игра очень темная.
    Резюмирую. Ubisoft надо что то менять. Растягивать геймплей далее некуда. Авторы хотели создать игру в которой есть всё! И бои, и охота за головами, и строительство, и рыбалка, и охота, и набеги, и вариативность. Да это неплохо, но начинает страдать сам геймплей, а это не правильно.
    Игра неплохая, но затянутая. Кто не проходил, но хочет, готовьтесь потратить месяца три на прохождение. Ну если конечно играть часа по два в день, а не сутки напролёт!    … Expand

    Grałem na PS4 PRO.
    Porzuciłem tytuł po ok. 10h. Historia bez emocji, powtarzalny gameplay, walka - czyli serce gry - woła o pomstę do nieba - sztywna jak nieszczęście. Klimat ratuje lekko sprawę, ale na końcu to typowy średniak. Plus jak to w Ubisoftcie, miałem wrażenie, że moja postać nic nie waży, jest z papieru. Czekam na rewolucję w serii.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a 2020 action role-playing video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the twelfth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series. Principally set in the years 872–878 AD, the game recounts a fictional story during the Viking expansions into the British Isles. Players control Eivor Varinsdottir, a Viking raider who becomes embroiled in the centuries-old conflict between the Assassin Brotherhood, who fight for peace and liberty, and the Templar Order, who desire peace through control. Story / atmosphere: 6/10
    The story has some interesting moments but is being killed by the strech imposed by such a vast teritory which asks to be filled with something. In the end we have a bland overall story, which may end without the player observing that it reached the end of the jurney. On the other hand, the side quests are so emply and dull that insult the player's inteligence. Gameplay: 8/10
    Dynamic and interesting gameplay which sometimes transposes the player into an action movie. The only elements that need inprovement were the feel of the actual impact of the weapon hits on the enemies, which sometimes feel like hitting paper dolls and the economy of the game which has no role / meaning after completing around 30% of the game. Graphics: 10/10
    Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a beautiful game, from the snowy environment of Norway to the lush green fields of England. The game pushes the limits of what can be possible in modern gaming, delivering absolutely stunning visuals, a gorgeous environment, an expertly-designed world, and detailed character modeling. Sound: 7/10:
    The background music, the cinematic music, even the music at the menu integrates well with the overall vibe of the game but fails to give the player some much-needed immersion. Game functiinality & bugs: 5/10:
    Error CE-34878-0 and blue screen was encountered many times, especially in raids and crowded areas (Tried all availiable solutions, but nothing solved it. Its frequency was diminished althow by lowering the resolution to 720p). Apart from that, a strange phenomenon took place when the character was sucked suddently, ending up in the clouds, falling afterwards on the ground and dying in the end. Value for money: 7/10
    The game will give you your money's worth if bought at around 30 EUR / USD / GBP with its sheer number of activities and length, provided the story and gameplay feel rewarding enough in order to play the game until the end. Conclusion: 7/10
    Playing Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is time ALMOST well spent. Could it be better? Absolutely. It lacks ambition, is afraid not to bother anyone with its story, is too repetitive and has a some technical bumps in the road. It is like eating a bland food. It was neither a great experience nor a bad one either...    … Expand

    This game seems to have lost all the things that made Odyssey great but doubled down on the chore-like aspects. Ubisoft made a big deal about there being no "side quests". Instead there are "events"; blue dots on the map that are functionally identical to sidequests but don't appear in a menu (very useful). The maps have also lost the colour and variety that made Greece feel so exciting.This game seems to have lost all the things that made Odyssey great but doubled down on the chore-like aspects.

The maps have also lost the colour and variety that made Greece feel so exciting. The biggest step back for me is the combat. In an attempt to emulate Fromsoftware, there is an emphasis on parrying and stamina management. Unfortunately, parrying feels very inconsistent and the combat does not suit the frequent scenarios when you're facing a Swarm of saxons in a raid. It only works in 1-on-1 boss fights that are few and far between. I do like the more focused selection of weapons but the upgrade and levelling system is atrocious. Upgrades are made in minuscule increments and abilities are not unlocked, instead you must find them on a map that doesn't tell you where they are unless you are already standing near them; eww. Odyssey may have gone a bit too far turning you into an unstoppable demigod but in Valhalla I can barely tell the difference between combat at the end of the game from at the start.
    The narrative is also very sloppy. There are good parts, I admit such as the Sciropescire arc, but the game really whimpers out in the second half. The finale feels so insignificant that it took me another hour before I even realised I had finished the story. I only noticed because there were no significant quests left to do.
    As a Welsh man I also find the map disappointing. There's no Cornwall, no Wales, no Scotland, and a slab of Ireland is saved for the DLC. Considering how massive the scope of Odyssey was it feels weird that we don't get to visit Scotland or Anglessey, yet we do get a piece of America as a reference to Assassins Creed 3? Overall, Valhalla just feels so meh and such a missed opportunity. This is a game where you can literally wield mjolnir, yet it entirely fails to feel satisfying in any manner.    … Expand

Also, having a Danish friend, the acting and accents are typical Hollywood appalling. There is a big splash screen trumpeting the diversity of the development staff, well maybe they need to go out and meet the world instead of circle jerking about how authentic and inclusive they are, because they are NOT.

It is a nice new thing but far from a settlement (or a camp) that you have in Red Dead Redemption II, for example. Upgrading houses andValhalla continues in the manner of Origins and Odyssey.

It is a nice new thing but far from a settlement (or a camp) that you have in Red Dead Redemption II, for example. Upgrading houses and buildings in your settlement opens a few side quests but apart from that there is nothing much to do there.

    Speaking of the story… nothing special here. You are a Viking, who is looking for allies in order to conquer England. The world is huge and you play partly in Norway and the largest part of the game you will be in England. In every region you have a couple of main quests before you get yourself an ally. It was all fairly interesting but after finishing a couple of regions I felt like I was in an endless tunnel with no light to announce the end (the moment I was finished with one region, another one would open… and then another one… and another one…).

    After I finished the game, I wondered why the title was “Assassin's Creed” because the game (a story at least) had so little to do with an Assassin’s Creed. The main character is a Viking (he is not an Assassin), who only meets a few Assassins on the way but there is nothing more that connects this game or story with Assassin's Creed. Except the gameplay, of course.

    When I started playing, I was surprised by the graphics, which are not bad but I have seen much better looking games from the previous year. Before I started Valhalla, I played The Last of Us Part II after which Valhalla looked almost like a previous generation game. The animation is mostly average; lip synching is bad for the most part and voice expressions that you hear usually do not match face expressions that you see on the screen.

    One of the main issues: the game is way too long. It took me 149 hours to complete the game with all side quests and find all treasures and chests. This would have been a really cool and fun game if it would have been 40 or 50 hours long. But 149 hours… There must be a moment to stop and finish something but no… Ubisoft rather opens another region on the map and another set of the same missions. After 149 hours, everything that was good about this game turned out bad and boring at the end.

    Within a huge world you will find plenty of nice landscapes but also an awful lot of copy-pasting, which is already a long tradition for Ubisoft. There are so many identical buildings, houses, churches, so many identical puzzles… It is all cool at the beginning but to complete the game you will have to do those cool things so often that at the end, you will not find them cool anymore.

    Side quests (called “world events”) are generally short events that will take few minutes to solve and they are a bit more interesting compared to the previous games (if you ignore the fact that there are again far too many of them and some of them are quite retarded).

    There are less armors and weapons in this game, which some people will hate but I found it better, less confusing and you definitely spend less time browsing the menu. The combat is not the best in the world but it unfortunately ages fast and gets boring because of the game’s huge length.

    My playthrough was really, really buggy and bugs appeared far too often and interrupted the gameplay flow. One of the most frequent bugs was that after a longer horse ride your character and horse would freeze while entering a city or a village. There is probably no game without bugs but this game has too many of them..

    Missing textures are also a big issue in this game. Textures of the roads or nearby houses would are often like in a PS1 video game. I personally think that this is unacceptable especially when developers wave all the time with phrases such as “next generation experience”. This was far from that.

    It feels that half of the game are loading screens. Even when you only wanted to talk with some pedestrians on the street there was a black loading screen! Fast travel was senseless in most of the cases unless you wanted to skip a very big distance (sometimes it was faster to ride a horse than to use the fast travel option). I always used fast travel when I needed to go to the toilet.

    All in all, I enjoyed the first 15 or 20 hours of the game but later I could not get rid of an “unfinished” feel that followed me through the whole game surely because Ubisoft continues a tradition of publishing new Assassin's Creed games far too often. It is not surprising that there are always so many issues because one year is obviously not enough for a huge open world game like this (if you want a great game at the end, I mean…). Ubisoft also continues a tradition of horrible writing, bad acting, copy-pasting as if the only goal is to make the longest game with a largest world possible with thousands of side quests in it.    … Expand

    World events were designed to be very short, but due to that they are usually also very forgetable and pointless. I get the idea that Ubisfot is criticized for repetitive side quest, but this is not the best solution. I would like to see less side activities, but at the same time they should be more meaningful to the character and/or the story.

There are also bugs even tho I waited on purpose all this time for UBISOFT to fix some of them and yet still in middle of mission sometimes I will have my character just fly up in the sky for no good reason forcing me to reload and do whatever I was doing again.

    Worst one I've played imo, played about 20 hours, got boring very fast. Map is far to big and pointless imo, these AAA games seem more focused on whoa got the bigger map than the content in it these days.

    Big empty world with a lot of repetitive stuff to do.. combat is stiff and only was dynamic with two spears equipped. Graphics are amazing, story is ok.

    Not nearly as enjoyable as AC: Odyssey, but there's certainly some fun to be had once you get the hang of the battle system (two red hits in early boss fights end you early on, but be patient).

As has been the case with the last two AC games, it's really nice to look at, and the developers do a nice job of trying to insert the fictional "assassin" in with actual historical characters and various deities/mythological creatures which makes the story interesting. Unfortunately, the side quests are grindy (though blessedly finite), so cleaning up to get the Platinum (even with YouTube University to help) is daunting (despite a significantly smaller map than Odyssey). Voice acting is uneven, but I entertained myself by pretending that the actors for Basim and female Eivor were having a contest to smoke the most cigarettes during production. The music was also lackluster save for Einar Selvik's in-battle vocal compositions (disappointing, because I liked Jesper Kyd and Sarah Schachner's previous AC contributions). Improvements over the last installment include getting rid of the infinitely generating side quests and mercenaries, the animal hunts are far less grindy (remember the Elephant battles in Origins? Sheesh), it is actually possible to assassinate brutes/more powerful enemies (thank you), but there is a timing mechanic that determines your success (fair enough). Step backs include long loading times (for either fast travel or respawning), the nonsensical stamina system (blocking tires you, but attacking gets you more stamina ??), the irritating fishing mode, and a thoroughly predictable final act, with the possible exception of how the past ties in with the modern day arc. Seriously, who didn't know who the head of the "Templars" in this game was by the halfway point? I was ambivalent toward the levelling system, but I will say that the "return fire" special ability is by far my favorite mechanic introduced into the series in a LONG time. The AI's ability to spot you on normal stealth difficulty (vs. Master Assassin, which you can select early on) is a little too "good." Not as bad as "Unity" which could spot you WHILE BLENDED FFS, but I can only imagine being frustrated had I gone the more difficult route. Valhalla is a good time until you complete the story. Then it just kind of...lingers.… Expand

    Versteht die Wertung nicht falsch, ich hatte Spaß mit Assassin's Creed Valhalla, aber es war für mich eines der bisher schwächsten Spiele der Reihe. Alles wirkt irgendwie repetitiv und auch das Anwerben von Verbündeten hilft nicht wirklich, eine packende Story zu erzeugen. Und mir persönlich fehlt auch enorm der Assassinen Bezug im Spiel.

    The weakest one in the RPG trilogy (Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla). I really expected more from this game, but it disappointed me so much. The story is the best part of this game, definitely better than Origins' and Odyssey's, it is nothing awesome, but it's a good and solid story, especially the ending. However, the characters are very uninteresting, bland and not a little charismatic, whatThe weakest one in the RPG trilogy (Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla). I really expected more from this game, but it disappointed me so much. The story is the best part of this game, definitely better than Origins' and Odyssey's, it is nothing awesome, but it's a good and solid story, especially the ending. However, the characters are very uninteresting, bland and not a little charismatic, what makes them pretty much forgettable. Also, all the characters in this game, viking, english or from anywhere else, can speak the same language and understand each other, what totally breaks the immersion of the game. The graphics are good in current gen, nothing to complain. The soundtrack is good too, the only thing i didn't like is that there's no soundtrack in the custcenes, just the character's voices. The minigames are cool as well. Now, let's talk about what i didn't like at all in this game. The combat has many, many problems. When you attack an enemy, sometimes the enemy doesn't feel your punchs and just take damage and attack you in the middle of your combo. Also, some enemies attacks have a strange red effect like they had superpowers in a game that tries to be realistic. The enemy AI is pretty dumb too, the archers are simply blind and the enemies are very predictable. But the main problem is that the game is extremely easy. I played this in the highest difficulty and, even so, the combat was so easy that the stealth became useless. The missions in the game are overwhelming boring and repetitive. Making alliances is the most boring, tedious and dull thing in the world. Every quest you have to kill a bunch of guys, do annoying and generic stuff for someone that you don't care about only to bring this dude to your side, and that lasts for hours and hours. The sidequest are very **** too but at least they're short. But seems like Ubisoft made the game how it is on purpose, because the game is infested with microtransactions that accelerate your progress in the game, it's really disgusting to see a 70$ Single Player Game having microtransactions, so imagine having a bunch of it, just like the previous ones, what a greedy and disgusting company. Really, that's the last time i'm buying an Assassin's Creed game, i'm done of playing 60 hours of an average 70$ game that begs me to pay even more to have a "good experience".… Expand

    There are far fewer cookie-cutter outposts than in previous AC’s, and most sidequests now offer an interesting story, sometimes even with a less-than-obvious solution. While some anti-grind measures have backfired, Ubisoft is on the right track. [Issue#250, page 56]

    Assassins Creed Valhalla is a wonderful addition to the AC franchise. It manages to avoid the tropes that became overplayed and focuses on a small well structured story. The fighting mechanics are enjoyable and offer many choices to fit different playing styles. There are a significant amount of bugs and the AI is underwhelming at times. But it's still another step in the right direction for Ubisoft.

    When Valhalla is at its best, it evolves series mechanics. And when you’re cruising down river, about to blow your raiding horn, there’s nothing quite like it. [Issue#183, p.71]
