    But after confirmed with UBI, it's only Asia version we can play in PS4.

    So I need to cancel my pre-order and try to play this game Valhalla in the PC.
    And this spend all of my weekend to learn this, because of UBI disclose the information at Saturday (3 days before the game release)

    UBI you are so ridiculous, I will not to pre-order anything in the future. You are suck.    … Expand

    **** moron policy with Asian PlayStation version.

    It’s fraud that Ubisoft didn’t notify us we are going to get censored version cuz JP CERO.

    But I’m **** LIVING IN TAIWAN.

    NOT IN JAPAN!

    I’ve supported AC series since AC2 the Ezio.

    And I can tell you that you are just putting your supporter away.

    I will only write this. The atmosphere of the Vikings pours out of the screen, wonderful sound and music, very good graphics. Good story. For me, the best Assassin's Creed of all parts.

    Beautiful game. Whether you liked the old AC formula or the most recent games in the franchise, AC Valhalla will be an extremely enjoyable game for you. Easily the best RPG of the year

    Questing and map is done far worse than in previous assassins creed games. Story is boring, the only fun after 10 hours of playing was first introduction cinematic, the further in the game the worse. Odyssey was doing everything better. I like vikings but this one is not so good... I lost my money, gonna sell this game, dont even wanna finish main story.

    I would love to say: "It´s a good game and I can`t stop plpaying!", but since I can`t even start the mainquest, because of a bug, which doesn`t alloughs to speak to NPC`s and after a restart my savegames are corrupted, I would say it`s pretty bad progmmed. They should have waited a few more weeks.

    Have I played it at least 15 hours, it's just so good. I can get lost into this magical world. I'm honestly so happy that this game turned out be as amazing as it is. Voice acting is good, story is very good, view to world cool!

    AC Valhalla is amazing! It has all the best from Odyssey and Origins + its own cool mechanics. If you're fan of "Vikings" you must love it!

    Typical game from the company ubisoft, boring and monotonous. The animations are made very poorly, a lot of different bugs and so on... It's a game, just a shame for 2020.

    I really loved Odyssey (played over 100h) and Valhalla is even better. 10 is not enough.
    Can't wait to see how good this looks on PS5 cause on PS4 pro this looks stunning.

    Боевая система стала получше если сравнивать с Одиссеей, хотя хотелось бы большего, пореалистичнее, попадания и движения более настоящими и чувствительными. В том же Синдикате она выглядела лучше и реалистичнее. Графика, прорисовка и картинка однозначно стали лучше. Эти аспекты для меня лично самые важные, всё остальное второстепенно.Боевая система стала получше если сравнивать с Одиссеей, хотя хотелось бы большего, пореалистичнее, попадания и движения более настоящими и чувствительными.

    Worst **** game ever.
    I'm bored and I'm just sleepy.
    The story is boring.

    Wow this game is boring. I honestly can't believe how pedestrian/ mediocre/mind-numbing this experience is. They've made what.....15 of these games?

How can a team of passionate developers create this? Do the people who play these games have the same concept of "fun" as the rest of us? Because irl "fun" isn't mindlessly completing tedious after tedious objectives, watching the same automated killing animations over and over again, and falling asleep through some average voice acting and terrible lip syncing. Why is it so hard for these people to create characters that we genuinely care about. Black Flag was decent IN 2013, how has the same studio created less compelling characters 7 years later? But even if the story is bad, the game can still be fun outside of the narrative right? Of course it could. Well it's not, it's boring. IT'S SO GODDAMN BORING. i think i'd have more fun throwing a tennis ball against the walls of my room than playing this game, even if it was free to play. Give yourselves more credit, you can do better than this… Expand

    Esto si es una viaje por el Valhalla y una auténtica aventura que rememorar tras el fiasco que supuso Odyssey que ofrecía un gran juego pero la experiencia de asesinos había sido totalmente arrebatada del juego. En esta nueva experiencia que nos lleva desde Noruega hasta Inglaterra realmente podemos disfrutar de un juego que técnicamente se sale y es muy disfrutable.

    I wasn’t a fan of Ac Odyssey so I was skeptical when I bought this game, but I’m happy I did. Everything that was terrible about Odyssey has been taken out and replaced with something so much better. No more damage sponges, no more grinding for hours to level up and I actually am very into the story whereas Odyssey I didn’t care about it at all.

The voice acting is great, the opening cutscene is amazing and draws you in and the fighting is fast paced and so much fun. The huge map is amazing to explore and the graphics are beautiful. I can’t recommend this game enough to anyone who enjoys AC games or even people who have never played them before.… Expand

    I just didn't expect this to be sooooo damn good. I'm not a fan but this brings the old Ac games combined with new in the best way. the world is not the empty world of odyssey and it's full of mysteries with really nice back stories. the story is the best since black flag and the side characters are much more memorable. gameplay is improved in every way. the graphics look amazing althoughI just didn't expect this to be sooooo damn good.

    The initial announcement of an AC game set during the Viking age lead people to believe they were going to drop the Assassin narrative entirely - boy were they wrong.

    The series has never looked better. For PC gamers, make sure you have World Detail set to "Ultra", which seems to basically function as a next gen toggle on/off.

    I'm only about 15 hours in so far, but unlike the previous 2 entries in the series, I have a major itch to get back on after I've stopped playing.

    Ignore the reviews that state "hurr durr too much game 70 hours is ridiculous". Lads - you're not supposed to play the whole damn thing in one sitting.    … 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]
