Now, if you are someone who has not really enjoyed any AC games since AC 3, take my advice and i mean it, please just give up this series, it's clearly not for you. I personally absolutely, deeply hate Assassin's Creed 3, i have played it only 1 time and i will absolutely never play it again. It takes you 7 hours to play as actual main character while doing most boring missions possible. Just no. While i have finished Unity, Black Flag and Origins at least 3 times. So there's that. I personally really like Valhalla and it reminds me these three games i mentioned. It's not me trying to hate people who like AC 3, even tho i'm very, very tired of them whining about Desmond's death, but again, if you don't like these new games, just give it up. That's it. But to other millions of fans who have played and enjoyed this series past 7 years i would recommend this! All the classic elements like hood, hidden blade, one shot assassinations are back. They removed all the grind from Odyssey, you get 2 skill-points at the time and it's very easy to get them. Story is interesting, characters are likable, graphics look incredible. That's all i have to say.… Expand

    Negatives/Could be better: Needs some improvements, but overall very solid, specially after patch 1.0.4 that fixed lots of issues for me.

It reminds me battle between Assassin's and Templars honestly. Idk maybe these haters are Templars after all, that would explain their bitterness lol. I'm not saying all Templars are automatically bad, i very much liked Elise from AC Unity, but these who give 0/10 are 100% bad ones. Am i taking it too seriously? I don't think so, to me games are art and i never gives 0/10 to games i don't like, i just ignore them, it's that simple. But when some literal haters start to hate art that i like (AC Valhalla for example) then of course it pisses me off, specially when you click on their profile and they have like last of us 2 with score 10/10. That's most easiest sign that they are just envy of AC Valhalla massive success.… Expand

    Never cared for Odyssey, Valhalla is so much better. No grind as far as i can tell and game is actually interesting this time. You get 2 skill points for basically every mission you complete. Power level goes up fast enough. If someone think this is boring, i'm sure you will your "FUN" out of games like last of us part II.

    It's absolute joy to play video game that look graphically beautiful, has so much variety in locations, absolutely beautiful ambient music in a year where absolute broken unfinished messes like Cyberpunk 2077 have been released. Thank you Ubisoft, seriously!

    People who give 0/10 to this game are absolutely lowest or the low people. They literally make me sick. How can someone be so tasteless and ignorant at the same time? Not your type of game? Fine, don't play it! But to come here and just give 0/10 with some nonsense explanation is just next level pathetic. There's tons of games that doesn't interest me, but i'm not giving 0/10's to them.

    Perfectly working beautiful game with interesting story and good main character, big interesting world to discover. AC Valhalla is basically everything that Cyberpunk 2077 wishes to be.

    This game was extremely massive success. Sold more PC copies in it's first week than ANY Ubisoft game ever. Not just Assassin's Creed. Any game they have ever made. And it takes just few seconds to check from youtube that people are very much liking this game.

    This beautiful game literally made this awful year so much better. I was waiting for it since April and it's finally here. I was expecting decent game, but it still managed to surprise me with tons of different locations and secret areas.

    It's so obvious that tons of these 0/10 are 100% fake. These people haven't even played it. I don't believe for a second that someone actually bought it for 60 dollars/euros, played it 50-60 hours and then comes here to give it 0/10. Hell no.

Also having Last of Us 2 or Cyberpunk 2077 as 10/10 also proves it. Because these tasteless people are envy that their trash games sucks and are hated on (and for a good reason), while Assassin's Creed Valhalla is doing better than ever. Good game, would recommend!… Expand

    I'm 20 hours into game right now and really enjoy it so far. Haven't encountered any bugs, runs just fine. Longer review later, but i wanted to give my early expressions because seems like some haters are trying to lower this user score with 0's and i can't stand something like that. Good game so far.

    I'm really proud that Ubisoft managed to come back so strongly, after absolute failure that 2019 was. Even tho Ghost Recon was never their strong point, so in a way, 2019 doesn't matter much.

    Metacritic has always been place where haters come, that just how it is. But this time they have huge problem if they wanna hate AC Valhalla. I'll put it simply. It's very good game. Hating good game with your fake lies is not easy, so yeah. Good game, would recommend.

    There's no question about it that AC: Valhalla is one of the better games of 2020. All this hate is so weird to me. Like don't you have anything else to do with your life than hating video games you don't like? Specially good ones like AC Valhalla. I would understand if you hate scam games like Cyberpunk 2077, but hate for AC Valhalla makes zero sense.

    I'm extremely confused with hate, for me it has been one of the best gaming experiences of 2020. Most 2020 games have been incredibly mediocre like - resident evil 3 remake, cyberpunk 2077, marvel's avengers and so on. But AC Valhalla felt like another class compared to these others.

История действительно длинная и в большинстве случаев интересная. Хорошо.Я бы сказал, что это, пожалуй, один из лучших.

    It is highly satisfying completing a story arc or traversing the world and finding things that you felt that other players might not have stumbled across due to the nature of the open world and its use of way finders. The lack of load times on Xbox Series S is truly impressive given the nature of environments, landscape, and elements that are present on screen. There were a few issues from characters floating in mid-air, bizarre enemy AI, and straight up freezes, although these were far and few between given the scope of it all. Intuitive and varied combat help keep things fresh, even if it does take a fair few hours of gameplay to really get going. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a thoroughly enjoyable, open-world RPG that is an absolute must for Xbox owners.

    In many aspects Valhalla resembles most of Ubisoft’s games, but fortunately progression feels a lot more natural this time around. The game’s not perfect but I had lots of fun conquering new territories, plundering churches, and pillaging coastal villages while following a mature story and enjoying gorgeous, believable medieval Britain.

    What could have been an elephants' graveyard of forgotten ideas instead feels like a series-wide victory lap. [Issue#353, p.96]
