    Combat can be very brutal at times, reminds me Unity's combat. World feels more like Black Flag, but 2020 version. Well done.

    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. Maps are getting bigger. Rockstar does same thing, CdprojectWhoever dislikes this game is not real Assassin's Creed fan. It's a fact!

Maps are getting bigger. Rockstar does same thing, Cdproject does same thing, everyone does 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

    Its just hilarious to read these hate comments. Most real "Assassin's Creed" fans seem to like this game a lot. I bet 90% of these who gave 0 or 1, never even played it. It's just too obvious. Literally created this account to show my support to this great game. Been fan over 7 years.

    Super well done Assassin's Creed, so far there's almost nothing i would say that i hate. I just like it more every day. Yeah some bugs, but i can't recall any open-world game that didn't have bugs at launch.

    Here's strong advice, play this with PS4Pro if possible. It's obvious that these new games wont run that well on 2013 consoles, that's just reality. Cyberpunk wont look that great either on base consoles and i can't believe they actually wanna bring Horizon 2 to base consoles. I mean it's nice to have these games, but don't give these games low score, just cause they wont run flawlessly.Here's strong advice, play this with PS4Pro if possible.

    If you have performance issues, just know that YOU chose to play it on 2013 console. It has literally free upgrade for PS5 version and some people still complain lmao.

    If someone actually thinks that AC Valhalla is not well made, that just shows absolute ignorance and lack of general knowledge about game making.

People shouldn't even start some nonsense like "it's not well made", when they literally have no idea what they are talking about. I'm so glad it got nominated for "Best Action / Adventure Game" at "The Game Awards". That alone shows that people who are part of gaming at least understand and acknowledge that it is well made video game!
    It doesn't have to win and very likely wont, that's not the point. What matters is fact that it got nominated.    … Expand

    One of the best games i have played this year, seriously. Final Fantasy VII Remake was nice too, but this one has so much content and most of it is good.

    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.

    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.

    Out of Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla -Valhalla is easily best one. Bringing back old elements, deleting ones that were never needed. Very enjoyable AC game.

    Makes me wonder why they even did Odyssey like they did. It clearly didn't work. I'm not saying it was bad game, it had some good stuff too, but overall Valhalla stands out as superior in basically ever way. AC is finally back!

    I wonder why, out of all games, Assassin's Creed always gets hit by bots created by losers who have no life. Is it really because it's so extremely popular video game series? I mean it must be. Stuff like Tony Hawk remake or Mafia Remake people hardly care to leave comments, but AC? That's like most commented game every time it come out.

This game is huge comeback for Ubisoft, one of the better Assassin's Creed games ever made. It must be that either one person who hates Assassin's Creed for whatever stupid reasons he has, created about 100 fake accounts, that would explain it. There's also this other thing....it's 2020 after all. Oh well. Great game anyway, no matter how many 0's it gets, it wont change that fact.… Expand

    Assassin's Creed games is basically closest we will ever get to actual time travel. Visiting these old cities and locations is just amazing. Of course it's still fiction, but so is Red Dead Redemption and that's fine. Still close enough.

    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]
