    Good job Ubisoft, hopefully there will be some patches more, but it's already very good! Hopefully Far Cry 6 continues this trend of good Ubisoft games.

    How can anyone give this amazing, beautiful Assassin's Creed game 0/10?? It's one of the best in the series, so whoever gives it 0/10 is clearly not a fan and never has been. I bet these people are just envy that this game gets attention. How tasteless and pathetic someone needs to be to give some good game 0/10 just because they are envy? Well now i'm angry, here's my 10/10, take that.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is Best Video Game Ubisoft has released in 3 years, not only that. It's also one of the Best Assassin's Creed games ever made. There's no need for spoilers or long review, i think that should say it all.

    Been hardcore Assassin's Creed fan since 2013 and i'm very impressed with Valhalla. Without a question it's one of the best in the series taking elements from Origins and Black Flag, while also adding something completely new. I personally found "Ghost of Tsushima" pretty boring compared to Valhalla, but these games shouldn't be compared anyway, because they are very different.

    Ghost of Tsushima shouldn't be even compared to AC Valhalla. Yes they share similar elements, but overall they are completely different games.

    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.

Now it's in way better state and even tho it needs more patching, early game (and by that i mean at least first 50 hours) is all good. What needs more work is endgame, but overall it's very well made, maps are huge and there's so much to do and explore.

    I'm so happy that Assassin's Creed Valhalla turned out to be better game than "CyberDelay 2077". One of the actual real ones, Youtuber "Michael Does Life" said it how it really is.

    After playing it nearly 60 hours i can say that it's very nice game. Like seriously. Whoever is giving it low scores is just afraid that "Cyberhype 2077" gets less attention. I personally like both games, but i just hate when something is extremely overhyped.

    This is best Ubisoft game in 3 years. I can't believe they delivered so well this time. Odyssey was big disappointment to me, so i wasn't expecting much. Yeah it had some bugs, but ones that annoyed me got fixed with patch 1.0.4. Apparently Cyberpunk 2077 is even buggier, so whoever whines about Valhalla bugs is just hypocrite at this point.

    One of the best games of 2020, amazing experience. Would recommend to any old and new AC fans.

    This is better than Origins, This is better than Odyssey. It's almost on level with Black Flag.

    Than you "Michael Does Life". Thanks to you i didn't waste my money on this overhyped buggy Cyberpunk 2077 and instead i bought AC Valhalla and i'm very happy with it. Beautiful good game.

    Seems like Cyberpunk 2077 didn't live up to expectations. I watched some gameplay and nothing looked extremely new or interesting. More like same old, same old. Bough AC Valhalla instead and so far it's really fun. Of course AC Valhalla isn't anything new either, but at least it's fun and less buggy unlike Cyberpunk 2077.

    What an absolute fail Cyberpunk 2077 is, i'm not saying that Valhalla is masterpiece (of course not, but it's at least solid open-world game).

Of course tons of youtuber will pretend that Cyberpunk is greatest game ever, because truth hurts and they don't wanna be honest. And yes PC version is "okay", but PS4 and Xbox One versions (versions that will sell the most)? These look awful and are extremely buggy. Even PC version is buggy. Gonna wait until 2022 to play it. Until then i can enjoy Valhalla. Expand

    Thank god i found Gamespot review for Cyberpunk 2077, they literally gave Cyberpunk 2077 lower score than Valhalla. Cyberpunk must be really buggy, because 7/10 is pretty low score for game that has been in development over 7 years. So as of right now i bought Valhalla and so far it's pretty nice. Maybe trying Cyberpunk 2077 in 2021 when they finally fix the game.

    I really enjoyed the game, spent almost 100 h there without any regret. The climate and environment are superb, music and content also!

    I'm so extremely happy i actually waited and bought Valhalla instead of Cyberpunk 2077. I saw tons of leaked Cyberpunk footage and this game is just not ready, not even close.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is nice game that takes place in 800s Norway and England. Graphically one of the best of 2020, story is solid, combat is very brutal.

    Cyberpunk fanboys are absolutely pathetic. Valhalla and many other actually good games from past 4 years got so much hate because they had few bugs (not even comparable how buggy Cyberpunk is on Ps4 and even on PC). But now when everyone knows that Cyberpunk is buggy mess, every fanboy tries to act like "it's just fine". Pathetic. It's top level hypocrisy!

    Cyberpunk is nothing new or nothing special anyway. It's literally mixture of Skyrim and GTA V, absolute wannabe with worse world details than GTA 4 from 2008.
    I'm extremely disappointed in Cyberpunk 2077 PS4 (PC as well) performance and bugs and very soon millions of other people will be as well. Cyberpunk fanboys always whined about other games when they had any bugs at launch and acted like "Cyberpunk 2077 will be this "Absolute Next-Gen miracle". It's time for reality check i guess. All it proves is that sheep will follow basically anything that gets popularity and likes.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is absolutely amazing, specially after patch 1.0.4 and next patch is coming in few days. Highly recommending this game. One of the best of 2020.

    What really captivates me in this game other than graphics and story is music. Absolutely beautiful ambient soundtrack. Just beautiful. Ubisoft, once again making Christmas time better! Specially in absolute trash year like 2020.

    Ubisoft has lots of hits and misses and that's because they make so many games.
    But for almost every miss they have at least two hits.
    Ubisoft hits : Far Cry 3 (2012) , Far Cry 4 (2014), Watch_Dogs (2014) (PC Version, but PS4/Xbox One versions look decent as well), AC 4: Black Flag, AC Origins (2017), AC Valhalla (2020), Immortals: Fenyx Rising (2020), AC Unity (2014) (PC Version

    Decent Ubisoft games: Far Cry 5 (2018), The Division 2 (2019), AC Syndicate (2015), Steep (2016), AC Odyssey (2018), Cold Fear (2005), Ghost Recon Wildlands (2017), Watch Dogs 2 (2016), Far Cry: Primal (2016), Rayman Legends (2013)

    Ubisoft Fails: The Division (2016), Ghost Recon Breakpoint (2019), Watch Dogs: Legion (2020) If DLC and Online turn out to be REALLY good, it can go to "Decent category, right now it's too bland), Assassin's Creed 3 (2012), Heroes of might and magic VI (2011)

    Of course they have more games, but i tried to mention mix of modern and older games. My point stands that they have made some really good and even decent stuff. Valhalla easily belongs to "Ubisoft hits" category.

    Valhalla is the best game Ubisoft has put out since 2013's Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag. The narrative choices are superb in this game.

    Extremely good Assassin's Creed game, i tried to play Black Flag again yesterday to see, if i like it more or less than Valhalla (because Black Flag was my previous favorite) and i have to say, i actually enjoy Valhalla more.

    It's absolutely pathetic that people whine about Ubisoft's optimizatsion, while their games are perfectly playable. But they hype Cybertrash 2077 to moon and back while this game gets 39fps with gtx 1070 and looks like trash. It's over.

    Somehow it reminds me a little bit of Witcher 3. And also 60fps is very addictive. Once you try...

    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.
