    What really captivates me in this game other than graphics and story is music. Absolutely beautiful ambient soundtrack. Just beautiful. Ubisoft, once again making Christmas time better! Specially in absolute trash year like 2020.

    This game brought happiness and joy back into my life. Ubisoft literally cured my depression. Thank you Ubisoft, so, so, so much! This is not fake or troll post. I literally felt like sht and this game made me feel so much better and so much more alive. I don't even care, if anyone believes me. Thank you Ubisoft, i mean it.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is absolutely amazing, specially after patch 1.0.4 and next patch is coming in few days. Highly recommending this game. One of the best of 2020.

    Cyberpunk fanboys are absolutely pathetic. Valhalla and many other actually good games from past 4 years got so much hate because they had few bugs (not even comparable how buggy Cyberpunk is on Ps4 and even on PC). But now when everyone knows that Cyberpunk is buggy mess, every fanboy tries to act like "it's just fine". Pathetic. It's top level hypocrisy!

    Cyberpunk is nothing new or nothing special anyway. It's literally mixture of Skyrim and GTA V, absolute wannabe with worse world details than GTA 4 from 2008.
    I'm extremely disappointed in Cyberpunk 2077 PS4 (PC as well) performance and bugs and very soon millions of other people will be as well. Cyberpunk fanboys always whined about other games when they had any bugs at launch and acted like "Cyberpunk 2077 will be this "Absolute Next-Gen miracle". It's time for reality check i guess. All it proves is that sheep will follow basically anything that gets popularity and likes.    … Expand

    Thank god i found Gamespot review for Cyberpunk 2077, they literally gave Cyberpunk 2077 lower score than Valhalla. Cyberpunk must be really buggy, because 7/10 is pretty low score for game that has been in development over 7 years. So as of right now i bought Valhalla and so far it's pretty nice. Maybe trying Cyberpunk 2077 in 2021 when they finally fix the game.

    Seems like Cyberpunk 2077 didn't live up to expectations. I watched some gameplay and nothing looked extremely new or interesting. More like same old, same old. Bough AC Valhalla instead and so far it's really fun. Of course AC Valhalla isn't anything new either, but at least it's fun and less buggy unlike Cyberpunk 2077.

    This is best Ubisoft game in 3 years. I can't believe they delivered so well this time. Odyssey was big disappointment to me, so i wasn't expecting much. Yeah it had some bugs, but ones that annoyed me got fixed with patch 1.0.4. Apparently Cyberpunk 2077 is even buggier, so whoever whines about Valhalla bugs is just hypocrite at this point.

    Instalments in the AC series varies a lot in quality, with games like Unity and Syndicate being two of the worst games I ever bought.

I had high hopes in Valhalla after Origins and Odyssey that I think both took major steps in the right direction. But Valhalla is a step back to frustration, bugs, moving away from the shadowy creed we all love. Poor controls often let you down when sneaking and turn a game of shadows into a repetitive hack and slash bore. It would have been ok if the fighting was any good, but somehow they messed that up. Without spoiling too much, there is a place similar to that odd tropical island in RDR2 that I just can't understand why they added to the game. You play a bloodthirsty viking in a foreign land, but too often do you have to engage in politics (walk around and talk to different people) and compete in rhyme (game of words). Graphics are also a rather big step back from the latest 2 instalments that were very impressive. And don't get me started on the singing. I want to run that longboat aground as soon as the *** crew starts that tedious mumbling. Any psalm is more upbeat than that torture. Vikings high on mushrooms going on a raid, and you think that is the sort of songs they chant? I will most likely play through this one as well, but it's just due to lack of options right now. I can't keep playing dead cells forever...… Expand

    Mich hat Valhalla definitiv nicht enttäuscht, mit 120 Spielstunden habe ich seit letzter Woche bereits meine Platintrophäe auf der Ps4.
    Das ersetzen der Sidequests durch Weltereignisse ist ebenfalls sehr gelungen, jedoch gefiel mir das Looting System aus Origins um Längen besser als das Jetzige.
    70 Stunden drin war ich immer noch mit der Axt meines Vaters und der Montur meines Clans unterwegs. Was vielfallt in Auswahl schaffen sollte, hat genau das Gegenteil geschafft, man wechselt nichts mehr, da gerade wenn man seine Montur und Waffen aufwertet mit den doch recht begrenzten Metallen, wird einem schnell klar, dass es sich einfach oftmals nicht lohnt andere Waffe aufzuwerten und dann upzugraden nur um sie mal auszuprobieren.
    Die Artefakte hingegen sind eine Entscheidung die ich nicht groß beurteilen kann, gefühlt haben die Flüche nur eine kleine Rätsel Komponente und bringen weder Loot bis auf mal ein Opal oder ein paar Titan, auch keine anderweitige Änderung, bis auf ein wenig xp.
    Die römischen Artefakte haben das selbe Problem, großartig viel hat man von diesen nicht, bis auf das man durch das sammeln später in der Siedlung diese eintauschen kann gegen Tattoovorlagen oder auch Waffen.

    Das Kampfsystem fällt ebenfalls etwas schlechter aus als bei seinen Vorgängern, erst recht spät im Spiel, wenn man im Skilltree die richtigen Fähigkeiten freigeschaltet hat, kommt man so richtig in fahrt.
    Skillpunkte kann man beliebig zurücknehmen und neu verteilen, was es umso sinnloser macht, den Skilltree zu verstecken, bis auf die Tatsache das es echt nervt.

    Aber wie oben schon angemerkt sind die Highlights wirklich die Weltereignisse und das Storysystem, diese sind gestrickt mit Witcher 3 Vorbild und bieten einem Interessante Kurzgeschichten die oftmals mit anderen Weltereignissen zusammen spielen und eine kleine Geschichte weben. Weltereignisse bestehen aber nicht nur aus Nebenquests, sondern auch aus Animus-Anomalien welche Puzzleparkourspiele sind, Drengr und Töchter-Herausforderungen, diese sind Side-Bossfights und Unterscheiden sich doch beträchtlich von einander und auch legendären Tieren und einem meiner Favoriten, den Steinmännchen-Rätseln, diese nehmen den Wind aus den Segeln und lassen einen wirklich mal einer anderen Erfahrung teil werden.

    Was das Storysystem angeht, ist die Idee genial gemacht und umgesetzt, nur fehlt es der Story etwas an sich. Soll man nur Englaland erobern oder nur Bündnisse schließen? Das eine wird gesagt und das andere gemacht. Und auch zu welchem größeren Zweck wird einem auch erst viel später so richtig klar, wenn man in die Sigurd gebiete reißt.
    Die Charaktere sind wenigstens sehr gut geschrieben und die einzelnen Gebietsstorylines auch recht Interessant, jedoch hätte ich mir tatsächlich mehr der Detektivstory wie in der Story von Soma mit dem Verräter gewünscht.

    Was noch erwähnt werden sollte, ich hatte recht viele Crashes, aber soviel auch von Bugs berichtet wird, wird man in seinem eigenen Spieldurchlauf nur auf sehr wenige stoßen.

    As i have played pretty much every Ubisoft game i would almost say that AC Valhalla might be their best map's they have ever designed. Also, one of the best Assassin's Creed games ever. I already know i'm going to play Valhalla for years to come. Very much content the game.

    I mean what can say is that i bought it day 1 and it was little rough, but playable for sure. Now it's in way better state and even tho it needs more patching, early game (and by that i mean at least first 50 hours) is all good. What needs more work is endgame, but overall it's very well made, maps are huge and there's so much to do and explore.

    I love this game! Playing AC Valhalla is like going to a "buffet". There are many things to do but just don't try "chew" them all in one go. Rushing to finish the game as soon as possible can make you feel bloated and bored. Take your time and don't rush to finish the game. Enjoy the progression of the journey.

    World of gaming truly is full of extremely toxic (yes i hate that word too but it works in this context) people. Amount of salt, anger and just whining is beyond pathetic. AC Valhalla is well crafter Assassin's Creed game that (obviously) could use some patches and these patches are coming Mid-December by the way, but overall very good!

Not to even mention that Ubisoft graphics on Far Cry and Assassin's Creed games have always been top tier quality. Specially on PC. Extremely unfair, but seems like they have been gaining more following and after all their games sell million, so maybe it's just small minority that wants to hate them for whatever reasons. I believe in them and i like their games. I'm also fan of Rockstar, Capcom and CD Project, so there's that.… Expand

    The graphics in PS4 are so bad comparing to the previous AC games, especially Origins and Odyssey. Also the new weapons and gears system is so rigid and badly designed that it makes the looting so boring

    Very good Assassin's Creed as expected, trailers didn't mislead and there's actually way more interesting content than i could have ever expected. So far i have seen three maps, Norway, England and Vinland (North-America). There's this "dream-world" where you meet all the gods, that's also really cool. Hyped for Ireland and Paris DLC's.

    Norway and England look both incredible. Contrast between them makes both of them special in their own way. I love architecture in England, old bridges, towers, etc. Graphically stunning. Power level goes up really fast, if you actually loot chests and stuff. No grind or bs like that. Well done Ubisoft.

AC Valhalla is very likely new addition to these games that i never stop playing. It has so much content, most of it is interesting, it's fun, combat is sick, i can tell they really worked on this one. Good job Ubisoft and thank you for not disappointing.

    It's weird paradox that Assassin's Creed has millions of fans all over the world, but for some reason they never really come to metacritic. Maybe it's because AC fans are more mature and don't give a f_ck about some random scores on some random pages, that would make sense actually.
    And it sold over 1.8 million anyway, so basically who cares about metacritic user score at this point.

    One of the best of 2020 and i'm saying it dead seriously. No game has so much content from this year (so far of course), resident evil 3 and avengers are absolute jokes compared to this. Making 5 hours long game that's sold for 60 should stop. AC Valhalla is easy 150 hours cool content with beautiful graphics.

    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.
