    Very good Assassin's Creed game, so much to do and explore, needs some work (sure), but overall it's fantastic game.

    It's so satisficing to watch haters trying to desperately hate on AC Valhalla, but failing miserably lol. Amazing game!

    Of course it has some bugs, it's insanely big open world game, but most bugs were fixed in 1.0.4 patch, now from here on it's just quality fixes and additional content.

    One of the better games of 2020 and absolute winner of November 2020 lineup.

    Always makes me wonder how empty and worthless i would need to be to give 0/10 to game i have never played. These haters are some very "special" people.

    I never really cared for Odyssey, yeah it was fun in 2018, but overall story sucked and it missed so many AC elements. Valhalla fixes it all. Only thing i would complain about Valhalla is that i run out of arrows all the time. Why can't i craft arrows? Come on Ubisoft.

    8 Days to go for Cyberpunk 2077, so hyped! But until then i can play this epic, been having so much fun with Valhalla, would recommend if you like big open world games.

    Gonna play this for very long time, that's for sure. I'm power level 90 rn and there's so much to do still. Can't wait for dlc's.

    OMG i love this game so much, basically nothing from 2020 compares, okay doom eternal is great and final fantasy 7 remake as well, but these are so different from this. They are all great in their own way. But AC Valhalla is just epic.

    I bought both PS5 and PS4 versions (PC digital as well), but PS5 and PS4 as discs, just to have all possible versions i cared about. Am i fan? I think so lol.

    Instead of endless whining, people should either enjoy video games or find new hobby. Giving low user score to games you have never played is pretty sad hobby. Great game btw.

    Lots of content, at least 3 huge maps, more coming with dlc's i think, combat is brutal, story is fun most of the time, graphics are amazing.

    Great game, keep going Ubisoft! More stuff like this in Far Cry 6 please and not whatever Far Cry 5 was. Make it more serious, make it mean something, go deeper with stuff. You have done it in past with Far Cry 3, AC Black Flag and AC Unity. You can do it again.

    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.

    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.

    It's so annoying that this game has been out like 30 days and some people already talk about what they wanna see in NEXT Assassin's Creed game. Like jesus christ, who cares what's next. How about enjoy this one? I personally don't even care, if there's going to be next one or whatever it will be. It will come out earliest November 2022 anyway. Right now is time to enjoy this amazing AcIt's so annoying that this game has been out like 30 days and some people already talk about what they wanna see in NEXT Assassin's Creed game.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is The Ultimate Assassin's Creed experience that combines elements from past and from more recent games while adding some new flavor. Strong recommendation, specially after patch 1.0.4.

    Seems to be one of those games i will never stop playing, just like i still play gta 5 single-player from time to time or AC Black Flag. 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 very good and i'm so confused why it has so many dislikes, like wtf====????

    THIS is how you do it Ubisoft, FINALLY! Not some endless xp **** and boring missions. Valhalla brings back greatness to AC series!

    After 30 hours i can say this might be my favorite after Black Flag, maybe even better idk. I think they are equally good.

    In a world full of mediocre video games and overhyped story simulators, Ubisoft, out of all companies managed to make one of the best Assassin's Creed games in 2020. What universe is this again?

    Some more patches would help, but overall it runs well and i haven't encountered any bugs, but i'm sure there's stuff to fix still, because it's very big open world. But other than that, it's really good.

    From modern ones easy top 4 - Black Flag, Valhalla, Unity, Origins. Good stuff. But i would like to mention Syndicate because it's so underrated, it's not best, but it's still fun enough and has some really nice graphics at times.

    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]
