    It's fix some stuff from Odyssey, but still it drags too long. I think they should focus on those interesting characters and cancel the boring ones. The story is basically you find alliance from different reigon. The combat is fun, but after like 100 hours, it become very fatigue. Overall if you want to kill some time you can play it

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've never played an Assassins Creed game before, but I opted for this game, since I am a huge fan of Norse mythology and for the most, Vikings. So when I bought this game, I had my expectations. 20-30 minutes into the game, most of them had been crushed.

    First of all, playing for more than 5 minutes made me realize that the sound engine in this game is utter trash. For all games I've played, this has to be the worst sound quality and mixing I've ever heard. And no, I didn't have 3D audio on, and my headset is also pretty expensive. The sound quality often just sounded low-res and kind of "away" in a bucket or something. Very frustrating, but didn't stop me from getting the platinum trophy.

    Second. I know about the animus and how the series are build up, ish. But for some reason, I bought this hoping and also thinking that no Animus would appear. But of course, it was, and to be honest, it was just not interesting for me. Not from the beginning, during the story and the end of the story. Nothing seemed like it made sense and it just wasn't interesting.

    Third, the story in a whole is way too long and most of it seemed unnecessary. You have to make alliances with all these regions, which is cool, but they decided to put in 12 or something. Plus 4 "extra worlds/maps". Long story short, this game is simply needlessly too long and makes it along the way boring. Nevertheless.

    Now that it's off my chest, I can focus on what makes it better. Yes, this is a very good Viking game. You have a hometown, where you can kind of build your own town, and from these go be the best Viking. There's raids you can ravage, and exploring you can do. There are so many elements of this game that's actually fun and interesting, but is held back a lot by the whole "Assassins Creed". For me at least.

    Again, long story short. This a pretty damn good Viking game, if Viking actually was in focus. But it simply wasn't for me. And that saddens me. It gets a 7/10, since the Viking part of this game is solid. Otherwise, it would lay around 5/10.    … Expand

    The game feels pale somehow and the skills system is not fun.

    I've encountered some bugs but nothing that annoyed me.

    I'm not a big fan of the earlier games either.

    I came here directly after Origins (9/10) and the magnificent perfect 10/10 of Odyssey.
    It was my first game for my new PS5 and I had JUST finished watching Vikings.
    The perfect setup. Right from the first minutes...something was off... I mean..everything was, but *something* wasn't there.

It is a huge improvement from the past AC game.

    I have to update my review, the game overstayed its welcome, beware that it is a never ending game. I actually quit out of boredom (after 80 hours of gameplay and realizing that I wasn´t even close to getting to the end of the story), games need to have a conclusion and this one seems to not understand that. It is like a 1000 page book, that you enjoy for the first 500, slug through the next 300 because you actually want to read the conclusion, but you finally quit because it becomes tedious and repetitive, and you want to eventually read other books in your collection...    … Expand

I liked the side content like building the village or the board game orlog. The story I thought was great and had a nice ending: The Eivor and Sigurd saga, traveling to Asgard and Jotunheim was fun, some of the province arcs were great and unique from the others (for the most part). Its biggest downfall is by far is its length, it took me 70 hrs to finish this game. Most people that play an rpg game for that long are simply there to 100% the game, not still trying to finish the main story line. I enjoyed the game at the start and for the first 40 hrs or so, but there seemed to simply be no end in sight at that point and everything started feeling tiring and monotonous. Besides that main problem, this game was teetering on the border of being too glitchy for my liking. Some very annoying bugs appeared here and there, sometimes had to completely reload. For the most part it worked alright, but was a bit of a nuisance at critical moments. The real world story still makes no sense to me (ever since Desmond died in AC III) and feels completely needless on top of the historical saga. The combat I found to be alright, nothing too different than Odyssey or Origins, not the biggest fan of this dark souls combat system either, was too finicky and annoying at times like would often catch on fire or miss the timing of the parries. Overall, this game was a mixed bag for me, it had good elements but was just too freeken long.… Expand

Красивая очень карта , понравилось апать деревню , прикол с набегами тоже прикольная фишка, что-то новое я бы даже сказал в игровой индустрии. В целом круто было по кусочкам захватывать англию. Finally вернули death сцены с origins, а то в одиссее было по уебищному, типо убил супер важного чела и убил, правда в этой игре все культисты казались какими-то слишком обычными и не значимыми тут минус для меня был. Диалоги найс , флютинг интересная вещь, орлог тоже придумали интересно.
    Минусы в этой игре, это гринд для меня, ну его слишком уж много, не думаю что кому то в кайф прям настолько много лутатся, вот в ведьмаке допустим его было в меру как по мне.
    Еще минус в синих бонусах, по типу собрать камни, по началу казалось забавным, но потом проведя часов 45 в игре, это уже казалось адом, это печально , ибо мне хотелось закончить везде синие бонуски в каждом регионе, но на это вообще силы сложно найти
    В общем, я бы сказал что это ведьмак на минималках (ну или средних) , хорошая игра, я бы поставил ей 8, но как то я подумал, что вот к примеру дополнения на ведьмака я бы еще на часов 1000 купил, а в acv я всё, я устал, я не вывезу еще больше играть в эту игру,получается что игра все таки не на столько хороша в по моим меркам оценивания, странное ощущение по итогу складывается, в общем 7 с +.    … Expand

Took 128 hours to do everything in the base game. Combat and atmosphere seems to be inspired by God of War(2018). Medieval England is my favorite setting since Rome in AC: Brotherhood. Beautiful game with a grimy realism. You can almost smell the smoke-filled homes and unwashed bodies. Darkest and most lurid game in the history of Assassin's Creed. For the first time I can recall there are some real moral choices you have to make that aren't easy, and the game can sometimes become philosophical.

    On the downside the game is very buggy, and even 9 months after release serious bugs exist that can prevent you from fully completing the game. Often my character would turn around completely when aiming with the bow, or get warped to the edge of the game map. Sometimes got stuck in walls. For the entire 2nd expansion my horse refused to run(very annoying). AC: Valhalla was also too wordy. There were far too many cutscenes and too much dialogue with people endlessly yapping about nothing. It's turning into a JRPG with all the bloviating.

    The absolute worst part of the game though is all the terrible puzzles. it seems like every other treasure chest requires you to solve a little puzzle. Some of these require keys, hidden underground entrances, magic entryways, or my favorite, a game of find the hidden explosive urn. A lot of treasure is hidden behind walls that can only be destroyed using explosives, and there will be 1 explosive urn hidden somewhere relatively closeby, but can still take 20 minutes to find. It's very obnoxious and I recommend just using Youtube videos, because there was no gameplay value in wandering around until you stumbled upon the hidden answer. There are also these stacking cairn puzzles where you have to play Jenga with rocks. It too is frustrating and a terrible waste of time in terms of gameplay.    … Expand

It was designed in a way that makes it look good, sacrificing feeling good. You’ll know what I mean after you’ve played it for 10 or so hours.

    - Story. In some Parts its good, but never really feels unique and overwhelming. It really is 18 Ministories bundeled into one.

    Bad
    - Skills and Equipment System feels not very rewarding
    - Fights become boring (If you realize the mechanics you can try to avoid most of them, but it feels odd)
    - Feels grindy (it's like the UBI developers always had the In-Game Shop in the back of their head)
    - too much repetitive Content    … Expand

    É um jogo com conteúdo massivo, muitas horas de gameplay, contudo há muita repetição nas estruturas das missões e até grinding, o roteiro não é muito profundo. Já a gameplay e a exploração são o foco principal do jogo.
    Mesmo com as suas 50 horas, aproximadamente, para completar a linha principal, o jogo tem pressa para contar a história. É até compreensível, mas tira um pouco da imersão.

    O ponto mais alto de Valhalla é a liberdade para completar as missões. Stealth, Incursão, limpar uma área sozinho com confronto direto, as possibilidades são diversas, e ainda por cima é possível mesclar as abordagens para cada desafio.
    A gameplay é boa, a adição do vigor confere mais desafio. Muita variedade de estilos de jogabilidade. Tipos variados de arco, machado e escudo. Adagas e lanças. Além da personalização de todos esses elementos. Só recomendaria a quem já é experiente na franquia jogar um nível acima do "normal", pois o jogo continua bem fácil como o Assassin's Creed anterior.
    Os desafios como coletar colecionáveis, repente, orlog e muitos outros são situações mais pessoais, vai do gosto de cada um. Particularmente gostei muito do orlog e do repente.
    As competições de bebida são bacanas, mas poderia haver mais possibilidades de desafio, mais combinações de botões a medida que o adversário é mais forte, por exemplo.
    O tutorial aparece praticamente no jogo todo, mas no início sempre chega atrasado. A maioria das coisas aprendi a fazer antes de ser mencionado.
    Os gráficos são bons, a Ubisoft conseguiu extrar bem esse quesito mesmo com a imensidão do mundo criado.    … Expand

    A good game, nothing less nothing more.
    It's a really good game if you're a fan of Vikings (tv series) but the 'assassin's part" lack so much of plot.
    The RPG combat system is boring and not natural, the movements are too much solid like a robot. The map and the landscapes are the strong point of this game, the plot is TOO MUCH LONG. 80 hours to finish the main story with only few    A good game, nothing less nothing more.

    80 hours to finish the main story with only few interesting parts.
    Male Eivor is a joke of a character, a clown that act not like a Viking but...female Eivor was really insane; you will say "it's the same character only female", nope guys.
    The dub and the acting change it all, if you want a strong character trust me, choose female Eivor.
    The other characters are...nothing of memorable honestly.
    The dream parts are so bad done...it was a way to compete with Santa Monica's GOW but so much worse.
    Overall a good game but not worth so much money, if you want to purchase it maybe with discounts    … Expand

    There are two competing experiences here: that as as Assassin, and that as a Viking, that either on its own feels like it might have been a triumph and better than this good but not great Assass-king hybrid we have.

    Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla effortlessly plants its banner as the best open world RPG available for the new consoles. This Viking epic flexes its gore-soaked, tattooed muscles when it comes to world-building, and medieval England wows with its enchanting untamed vistas. It’s also portioned out at a steady pace and, if not for the repetitive, limited combat, Valhalla could have ranked even higher among our favourite games in the series.

    Is Assassin’s Creed Valhalla the best entry in the series yet? Some would be tempted to say so. While the map size might overwhelm some players, it remains an easy game to mainline with the right navigation mode turned on. In fact, the quick load times help to make this an even easier task than in previous generations. This is an iteration of Assassin’s Creed that has a bit of everything from the previous games, as refined as we have seen to date.
