    The game goes out of its way with all the politically correct silliness that has ravaged so many games and other forms of entertainment lately. The ending is dreadful, and it crashes pretty regularly. I was expecting a Viking game, and didn't really get one. This will most definitely be my last assasins creed game.

    The game has too many bugs the animation of the characters is like games from ps2. In all a poor development of Odyssey. Less quantity and more quality who better .

    If you want a decent experience, go for Origins or Odyssey. A lot of the secondary missions cannot be completed due bugs, the game is full of vissual glitches including bosses flying and enemies walking on walls. Bad response comands and the combat overall is a downgrade form previous games.

    Buggy piece of **** Have lost data 4 times (hours of play) regardless of how many times the game saves, or I manually save. This was a rushed job, and it really shows. Tons of other bugs apart from this, do they even bother testing their games. TRASH.

    Assassin's Creed is back, better than ever! Well, okay it's not best AC game (that would be AC 4), but it's still great and way better than Odyssey. I'm not able to understand why someone would say that they like Odyssey more. I guess these people don't like actual Assassin's Creed? Either way it seems like they are slowly moving back to what AC used to be and that's amazing. I have readAssassin's Creed is back, better than ever!

I have read that some people want fall damage to be removed. To me that's BS. Why remove fall damage? AC games have ALWAYS had fall damage, because it makes parkouring more risky/interesting. If you know that you gonna fall and nothing happens, then where's the fun?… Expand

    Assassin's Creed: Valhalla restored my faith in Ubisoft. I was really worried after Ghost Recon Breakpoint. It's actually understandable that all their games can't be hits, because they have so many studios working on different games, so no wonder some of these games are great and some are not.

    I have both pc and ps4 versions. pc version is better obviously, but ps4 version is still solid enough. You can't expect miracles on 2013 hardware and it's still miles better game than cyberpunk 2077.

    Very underrated game. Better than Origins, it has more likable characters and generally more interesting open world.

    it doesn't feel like an AC game anymore, the beginning of the game is great but in the end the story is stupid, this game is also too long and the mission is not important. I love man eivor as the main character tho

    Very decent ending for AC series, next one will be live service, so i think Valhalla was last true AC game.

    It's pretty okay Assassin's Creed, nothing great or amazing, but still fun enough. Have to give it 10, because some people think it's really funny to give 0/10 to game they have never played.

    It's too long and doesn't look quite as nice as I would like for such a long game, combat is shallow but there are still fun things to do, mostly just exploring, I look some of the story, some real high points but you have to get through the boring bits to get to the next good part

    Amazing game, after last update there is absolutely no excuse for anyone to hate this game, because Ubisoft has done so much. They added new difficulty option, so you can play exactly like old games and assassinate even highest level enemies with one hit. Anyone who still hates on this game from now on, is just whiny loser who wants attention.

    As of Ubisoft reported few days ago, Assassin's Creed Valhalla is Highest-Earning Assassin's Creed Game To Date. So that basically speaks for itself, Valhalla is EXTREMELY popular. All the hate just comes from small group of haters, but these are thankfully minority.

    Pretty good game! I wish it wasn't so long, because i feel like this game has little bit too much content, so maybe in next game less content, but more focused content and less random stuff. Other than that, it's fun, beautiful, open world.

    You'll probably buy the game based on these reviews but understand that the ps4 ver doesn’t hold a candle to odyssey, it’s a stripped down asset flip, when you have bought the game and have reached England go to the top of anything tall and take a look at the trees … spoiler … now you can’t un-see the ps1 mesh and perspective trick they used, ruined the game for me and now you too

    Million times better than Odyssey in every way imaginable. Odyssey isn't even Assassin's Creed game, Odyssey is just random RPG that takes place in Greece and has Assassin's Creed name, also story in Odyssey is an absolute joke, very bad writing. Valhalla is actual Assassin's Creed game with all basic elements you would expect. Avoid Odyssey at all cost, if you actually like AC.

    -story 8/10 good story with likeable character
    -Graphics 8/10 very stunning
    -parkour 3/10 with very small area for parkour it was dissapointed
    -combat 7/10 it was good

    Overall its still a good game but i do hope next game would have more complex area map so you can do more parkour

    Assassins Creed is my favrotie series of all time, so im harder on this series than I am with any other game.. and while Valhalla is a great game and my score will reflect that, as an assassins creed game, assassins creed Valhalla isa complete disappointment.
    Here you play as avore, becauseubisoft cares more about its precious sales you chose either man version or female version because ubisoft is afraid to commit and want to make everyone happy.. you set off on a Viking adventure to basically take over England during the dark ages.. and sadly this is more of a Viking game with assassins creed mechanics rather than an assassins creed game where you play as a Viking, the lore of the Templars and the assassins is there.. infct the whole uncovering the order side thing odyssey had going on is valhallas main focus, and I love that… however the game built around it is the most hallow money grab of a game in probably the entire assassins creed series… they sold you on Vikings, rob and pillage, this is fun about 0 times, its never fun going into an area for a raid, opening chests and collecting all of the loot, its repetive and bland, and that can be said for the entire game… im one to uncover every inch of an assassins creed game, read very document, platinum it.. but assassins creed Valhalla is so hollow that I found myself skipping through a lot of its dialog as the story is broken up into individual kingdoms you go out and help… this is less of an assassins creed game, you know.. a game where you relive memories of someone that was supposed to have actually existed to learn more about the orer and the places of the pieces of edden, and just a boring Viking game where you go from kingdom to kingdom taking care of that kingdoms individual problems, it’s a 70 hour long game of individual mini stories that by themselves could be okay experiences, but in an assassins creed game they feel like a waste of time not adding anything to the overall world of assassins creed, no one will remember Valhalla as a step forward for the series, infact in a lot fof places Valhalla steps back, for example its loot, there is next to none, yet you still collect it from time to time, its such an awkward system that you forget there are other weapons and armorus you can pick up.. youll mpost likely stick to the first or second piece of gear you find in the game and stick to that all the way through, especially thanks to the grind heavy upgrading system here that require a ridiculous amount of recourses to upgrade weapons… where Valhalla steps forward though is you making choices that actually matter, your choices have consequences, you have different paths with different characters you can go down that don’t feel empty like odyssey did.. but back to the intial point, this is great if assassins creed were an rpg seres set in different time periods… but its not, its meant to be an experience of a story already told, not an unwritten story of your grandpa and you get to chose if he banged other Vikings or not… tell me if avor was gay or not, don’t let me chose, again.. commit to a character, tell me their story… this is not a solution to the story telling critques players have.. this is assassins creed, not dragon age.. tell me the story as it happened… but this is thebiggest assins creed game to date, though bigger isn’t always better, another first, this s the first time I gave up on collecting all the things in an assassins creed game, for one,, again the world felt boring pointless and hallow, even the side quests that were supposed to be the talk of the town, except for the mini game orlog, it had its hooks in me like gwent, and I love hunting down the zealots of the land, bringing my back to the original assassins creed.. but the colelctables here, the game just makes you work too hard to get, one too many are locked behind story progress – why even put it on the map then… and evry other one ios locked behing an environment puzzle.. I don’t mind this eveyr once in a while , but map cleaning in assassins creed is a form of meditation, if I have to figure out how to get to literally every chest in the world, it isn’t meditation anymore, it’s a puzzle game outside of the story, no thanks. Also traversal here is probably the worst in the series too, its wakward, plenty pof annoying deaths at the hands of climbing, The biggest disappointment overall is this games story, the worst ending in history if you can even call it an ending and the outside of the animus world features the least likably protagonist of all time, smoking doesn’t make you look like a badass, it makes you look inconsiderate of the people around you, but again, assassins creed Valhalla is a great game, the combat is fun, you can go down different paths to play the way you prefer, brute, ranged, stealth, or a mix of all 3…

    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]
