    Assassin's Creed Valhalla has two big maps for exploring, sailing with your boat on rivers, nice story, good voice acting and decent combat. To me it's one of the best of 2020.

    this is the worst assassins creed i've ever played, this saga is getting more boring by every game they drop, you can't play it more than 2 hours after you get bored, the graphics are disapointing and the story is the worst of everything

    It's a good game, everything is better than in Odyssey and Origins, some of the old gameplay is back, the story is really interesting. That's a pretty good assassin's creed

    Same old crappy Bugisoft than the last 5 Assassins Creed, this is like the Ubisoft's Madden or FIFA.
    If you played any older AC, you can skip this one.

    Absolutely phenomenal and breath taking game. Runs gloriously on the series x and look amazing. However there is screen tearing if your tv/monitor does not support free sync. Hopefully that will be patched. But 40 hrs in and I can easily say this is my favorite In the franchise. I’ll gladly play another 40 more without batting an eye.

    Surprisingly good Assassin's Creed game, not only better than Odyssey, but it's just so much better. But it's pretty obvious that tons of people don't understand the appeal of Snowy Norway or Beautiful England and just call it boring. That's a shame, but whatever. To me 5 hours long Spiderman Miles Morales is boring, so to each their own i guess.

You can activate guaranteed assassination to kill any enemy with blade and you don't have to worry about leveling up stats to be effective assassin. Map is not level gated. The game is not filled with copy&paste quests that require you to travel to the other side of the map. Side quests actually vary and are more creative. Combat is more engaging than in Odyssey. Parkour finally requires a bit of thought. Basically this game is what Odyssey failed to be and Origins tried to be. Stealth mechanics returned and some new ones have been added like sliding on ground that you can perform to quickly escape and hide again. Ubisoft has put effort into story cutscenes and more is happening on screen. This is almost pefect AC. Only missing big cities to perform smooth parkour :)… Expand

Assassin's Creed has millions of fans around the world and AC Valhalla had one of the biggest Ubisoft game launches EVER. And while many who like this game keep playing it and never really visit sites like this, metacritic attracts haters who very often don't even have particular game, just to give low scores, because it's so easy here. Any, absolutely any loser can make metacritic account with 3 minutes and give 0 score and that will affect overall score, it shouldn't be like that, but it is. For example yesterday one person made over 8 accounts in 20 minutes and gave 0's to this game, because his version was censored or whatever. His comments and scores are still on this site, that's how easy it is to manipulate that user score.… Expand

    Negatives:

    launch is about 300 times better than RDR2 PC version launch (and Rockstar had whole years for that).
    2. Some bugs as expected with huge open world games, but nothing awful.
    3. Is it just me or water seems kinda empty? Maybe i just haven't explored enough idk, i was expecting giant squids, Odyssey had whales, so why not.

    Penguinz is almost like anime villain, because you know when he gives low score to games he don't like or understand (he has never liked AC games) then his minions will give 0's to that game without even trying it. He also looks like anime villain, so it actually makes perfect sense. Valhalla is good by the way, so much better than Odyssey.

So despite some bitter youtubers who are trying to do absolutely everything to cancel this games, it's doing very well.

    Cant rate the game high because although it is more of an AC game than Odyssey, Odyssey was a superior game due to combat being way way way better. Steering the ship is a nightmare. They did return to their old ways, best example Black Flag, you're fighting a guy here, then you turn the other way, focus on another guy while the guy you have been fighting kills you.

People didn't like the story and endless fluff in that game but the combat was great. Story needed some work though. You should have taken the idea of AC games, the assassinations, the parlour etc but took odyssey and built upon it. Not take Black Flag.

But in the end it's obviously up to everyone individually what they want to play. To me, this is my favorite AC setting ever (Norway-England-North sea). Not only that, it's overall great game, good story, good voice acting, amazing graphics, one of the best map designs in history of Ubisoft. It's easily one of the best games of 2020, there's not even much competition. Like of the few games that can compete with this (from 2020) is Final Fantasy VII Remake and maybe Doom Eternal, that's literally it. These two are completely different games from AC Valhalla, so it's almost unfair to compare them, but all of them are quality games.… Expand

    It's so weird watching some youtubers talking about this game, almost feels like they have been told by someone to not be very positive, but at the same time they want to be positive. So it will be this weird mix of "i like it, but there's these bugs". Good example is "before you buy" video, even tho it seemed that he simply didn't care about Norway-England culture and setting, almostIt's so weird watching some youtubers talking about this game, almost feels like they have been told by someone to not be very positive, but at the same time they want to be positive.

Good example is "before you buy" video, even tho it seemed that he simply didn't care about Norway-England culture and setting, almost feels like he liked Odyssey more and that's weird because Odyssey was way weaker game than this. Or maybe he is just tired of these huge game-worlds, i guess that happens when you start taking gaming as a job, instead of fun hobby. This one has million times more interesting content than Miles Morales, so i guess if someone just wants games to be quickly over, then Miles Morales is better choice. I personally love long games that have tons of content, so i would very much recommend Valhalla. To each their own i guess.… Expand

    Impresionante juego de Ubisoft, que ha sabido cambiar lo suficiente el juego respecto a los dos anteriores como para que sea lo suficientemente fresco sin perder la esencia de los assassins creed.

    -La historia está muchisimo más trabajada que en Odyssey y está contada de mejor manera, casi te parece estar viendo una serie de HBO. -Graficamente es espectacular en Series X, 4k 60fps.

    -La ambientación como en todos y cada uno de los Assassins es perfecta, un 10 para esos desarrolladores que se encargan de recopilar los datos de cada epoca de los juegos y las plasman de esa manera.
    -El tema de las misiones, personalmente prefiero un sistema de misiones clasico como en Odyssey, con misiones secundarias que tengan una historia cada una de ellas y una cadenita de misiones de 2 o 3 que te la cuentan, aqui son muy parecidos a los eventos de RDR2, encuentras a alguien, haces algo y adiós, no hay ningun desarrollo, pero bueno, es lo que pedía la gente, quitar las secundarias y se les da, también se quejarán seguro xD

    En fin, un juego redondo, muy entretenido!    … Expand

    Assassin Creed Ballala is the most terrible game I've ever played. lag, the error is too bad.
    Even the best graphics cards have lag, error.
    The story is not funny either.
    Subquest only increased the number.
    The action is boring and I fall asleep.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. AC Valhalla is great!
    Ubisoft constructed a beautiful Open World and it looked absolutely beautiful on my One X and Series X. The Story was pretty good, the beginning especially was really well done. The Character Customization is way better than in Origins and Odyssey and there are a lot of Customizable's! I liked the Combat of the Game, but it kinda lacked the Chaos which we had in Odyssey. We also can now dual wield weapons, which is a fine addition ( including shields)! The Skill Tree was massive in Valhalla and I had fun checking out the many skills it had to offer, i especially liked the one where we can send our wolf to attack enemies! The Raiding was by far the most fun part( alongside the exploration) and the most rewarding one. But this game also might be the most unpolished entry after AC Unity to the series, I encountered bugs on Series X and One X, and some crashes on my One X. But at the end of the road, these issues were nothing compared to the fun I had with AC Valhalla!

    Verdict: 10/10. While this Game might be one of the most unpolished entries into AC, this also is an awesome Viking Adventure I recommend to everyone! I    … Expand

    Boring Sidequest ( deliver boxes from a to b), Bugs ( missions stuck, Charakter didn't move at some point, graphic Pop ups).
    Another bland ubisoft open world game with only a handful of "ok" story missions. Mostly just right without any possibility to do Missions in stealth

    They really should call it Assassins creed odyssey part 2 they really need to focus on the facial expressions they don’t have emotions why you have the biggest open world when you can’t do it right I would like to have smaller world with good story telling and better facial expressions

    Really surprised Ubisoft managed to make this. I mean they have had hits before, but after 2019 flop i kinda lost hope, seems i was too quick to judge. AC Valhalla is at least 100 hour game with tons of good content, locations, enemies etc. Story is also surprisingly good, specially if compared to Odyssey.

    AC Valhalla almost feels like "Thank You" letter from Ubisoft to all their fans that have supported them past 7 years. It's truly amazing game and there's nothing more that pisses me off than these absolute nolife losers who gives zeros without even caring about this series or buying it. I wish all the worst in your lives.

    I have bought so many games this year, mostly because there was nothing to do thanks to quarantine. I bought Tony Hawk 1+2 remake, i bought Ghost of Tsushima, i bought 2018 spider-man (it's amazing btw), i refused to buy last of us 2 because how they lied to their fans, that was disgusting. But overall of all these games i have bought this year, i have enjoyed AC Valhalla most.

    Best Ac game since Black Flag. Incredible open world, actually two of them, because Norway and England are on separated maps. So much to discover, story is really enjoyable so far, voice acting for main character is perfect. Can't believe they will add Ireland later as well, not like it's huge world already, but i'm not complaining. More of this Ubisoft, more of this.

There's so much to do, voice acting is great, story is great, graphics are amazing. It's going to be something i'm gonna play until cyberpunk comes out. There's not much else anyway. Not interested at all in spiderman dlc.

    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.
