    I wanna give this game 10. Such a beautiful game and reminds me of Ghost of Tsushima somehow. That same vibe. I love this Asasin, i think new titles will be even sicker

    Very good Assassin's Creed game, maybe one of the best even. But surely better than last two games.

    Solid AC, personally i enjoyed it way more than last two entries. Specially from story and map design standpoint. It's just interesting to explore England and Norway. Empty desert in Origins and endless amount of Islands in Odyssey were just meh. But seems like they have almost perfected their idea how to make huge open world maps interesting.

    Absolutely amazing AC game. There's absolutely no grind like in Odyssey, if you actually want to play this game. If you want to play it as sony story simulator, then this game is not for you. Highly recommended to people who actually enjoy playing video games!

    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.

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

    Ubisoft don't listen these haters who whine under every youtube video that Valhalla sucks and "only AC 1 to 3 are good". These people are not your real fans. They don't like Valhalla, Origins, Unity, Syndicate, they don't even like Black Flag. They want something like AC 1 or AC3 that has most basic boring combat with no challenge.

Only reason i even started caring about AC series was AC 4. Making AC 4 is literally best decision Ubisoft has ever done. I'm so, so, so glad that this Desmond **** went finally away. Reason most people play these games i going back in time, not some modern day nonsense. I wish these games never had modern day, but it is what it is, thankfully AC games got so much better starting with AC 4. AC 3 was just horrible. Ubisoft, you should only listen to your real fans, not this minority who doesn't even care about anything you have done since 2013. They are almost as annoying as people who whine under every resident evil 4 remake video, that they want code veronica remake more. Resident evil 4 is million times better game, more important game and more popular game. These who whine about code veronica are also just small group of people who don't even care about resident evil 4 at all. It's literally same with thing with AC games. I swear Ubisoft, if you go back to this AC1-AC3 nonsense, i will stop buying your games, i will stop promoting your games to my friends and i will never play any of your games ever again. Listen to your real fans.… Expand

    Ubisoft announced that Assassin's Creed Valhalla was biggest launch in AC history, it was also nominated for Best Action / Adventure game. It has so much content and it's overall very fun, enjoyable game. Hater can just leave, because you all already lost. This game is Massive Success and nothing will change that fact! One of the best games of 2020.

    I have strong feeling some people lie, so they could justify giving extremely low score. There's no way these people are "Assassin's Creed" fans. Valhalla has been very enjoyable so far, i'm impressed with graphics, but also soundtrack. Just this main menu music alone might be one of the best they have done. Of course Black Flag had different vibe and i like both games music equally.

    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.

    No idea why people are giving this a 10, it's pretty basic, most of the combat animations are on repeat, the map is large but devoid of anything interesting (much of it seemingly randomly generated), random quests lack imagination (burn this down, collect X number of Y or answer a riddle), the map is locked down via power bloat rather than increasing challenge in the enemies move setsNo idea why people are giving this a 10, it's pretty basic, most of the combat animations are on repeat, the map is large but devoid of anything interesting (much of it seemingly randomly generated), random quests lack imagination (burn this down, collect X number of Y or answer a riddle), the map is locked down via power bloat rather than increasing challenge in the enemies move sets (Random footman in X territory does 100 damage while his clone elsewhere does 1000).

    Effectively everything is given just enough polish to make it seem passable at first glance, however once you play it for more than a few hours you'll note how little respect the game has for your time.    … Expand

    The game is very disappointing in comparison to Odyssey and I like it even slightly less than Origins. The game has loaded me into an infinite sequence of my character falling thru the map, but luckily that went away after a few days before the new year. I find the leveling up more grindy than Odyssey. I would love to level up enough to unlock no fall damage, am level 45, going for 280. Fantastic

    Positives : One of the best map designs Ubisoft has ever done, Beautiful graphics, Combat is fun with abilities, Story is interesting enough, open world is full of places to explore.
    Negatives : You can't craft arrows, no giant squids (at least i haven't found any).

Progress was one of the things that kept me with this series, Black Flag had huge world to explore in 2013, Paris looked absolutely stunning in 2014, Syndicate wasn't perfect, but London was still really nice location, Origins was even bigger game and obvious next step, while Valhalla perfected flaws of Origins and Odyssey. I really hope these leaks are not true, but if they are, i refuse to buy or support this next game. If they really go back to AC1-AC3 style then i'm done with this series and as of right now that seems to be the case. I'm almost certain that these awful leaks are true and they really do that. It' sad, but nothing lasts forever i guess. All i have to say that, thank you Ubisoft for these amazing games and this series once meant to me A LOT.… 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.
