    This game is very good, but i bet many people wont understand that, if they don't want to go deep with it.

It's honestly sad to see that gaming landscape has become so weak and only boring and extremely simple games like spider-man: miles morales or demon's souls get attention, while games like Assassin's Creed Valhalla where you actually need to think get pushed aside. It's largely sony fanboys fault. People are literally discussing on youtube, if last of us 2 should win game of the year awards, while it was one of the weakest linear story simulators of 2020. It's just sad, but whatever, true gamers will keep enjoying good games that have actual depth.… Expand

    Been fan of AC series for 5-6 years and this is one of the better games they have made. Odyssey has nothing on it. Would recommend.

    Why so many negative reviews? Yeah there are some bugs, but overall it's one of the best games i have played from 2020 lineup. Just cause you have some problems with game doesn't automatically mean you have to give it 0 okay? I'm planning to play this whole 2021, because Ireland dlc will add even more content.

    Потрясающая игра. Очень понравился данный сеттинг. Графика игры на высоте. Отрубание конечностей, добивания, камера при броске топора и прочие сладости геймплея присутствуют и сильно радуют.

    This game is full of bugs. Ubisoft is aware of this and it takes ages for them to come with a patch. I've paid for this game so I expect a complete game. Not some crap that's full of bugs and needs patches all the time. Thanks for **** everything up Ubisoft. Well done

    It's Assassin's Creed no more no less full stop with one big difference 60 frames per second full stop this alone makes it worse jumping in for yet another Assassin's Creed adventure everything you love will be here you know what it is.

    Na minha opinião, este jogo parece com o anterior - algo tipo Odyssey 2. Mudou o nome apenas.

    This game is absurdly buggy. Ubisoft should be ashamed of themselves for releasing it like this. Most of the side quests/"world events" don't work, the npcs and objects won't interact with you. There are copious softlocks in the main storyline. Disgraceful. I wouldn't buy this if I'd known it was so broken. I have to flag Ubisoft titles in the future now for quality checks.

    Support this game, if you wanna see more good Assassin's Creed games. If you don't support this then they will go back to Odyssey with next one.

Absolutely no other gaming company makes these kinds of historical fiction games where you can climb on top of every building, etc. Haters don't care about historical locations at all. They most likely don't even know / care about history that much. They just wanna whine about every game Ubisoft makes, because they think it makes them look cool, but in reality it makes them look stupid, because Assassin's Creed has millions of fans all over the world and they clearly understand the appeal of these games. These are likely more level headed people, so no wonder they don't come to sites like metacritic, they don't even care about places like that. But this site attracts losers who just wanna hate and whine. I Found this news-site from 2017 that was about "fake reviews on AC Origins". Then why has nobody removed all these fake zeros?? Or maybe they don't care anymore, because last of us 2 gets 100s of fake positive and negative reviews every single day. I can say one thing, i will support Ubisoft till the day i die, they make good video games and it's very clear that they get hate because they are popular. If haters would get their way and all these other companies would go away then gaming would be dead because we would get 1 game in 5 years. Because that's all they want. They want only CDprojectred to exist and they hate absolutely everything else and i think i know why. Because they can pirate their games and of course losers will automatically support them.… Expand

    This is one of the best ac ever made. History, gameplay, soundtrack, graphics are one of the best in the series. Odyssey didnt deserve to be an ac, valhalla deserves a lot. Just a little buggy

    From graphical standpoint this game is absolute masterclass, they really hit the nail with both Norway and England. This game's soundtrack is one of the most beautiful and relaxing soundtracks i have heard in long time in any video game. Combat is good, cities look interesting enough. There's many places to climb and parkour on. Overall very good.

    There's only four games from 2020 that i can say truly deserve to be nominated at "The Game Awards", these are : Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Doom Eternal, Half Life Alyx and Assassin's creed Valhalla. Tony Hawk 1+2 Remake was really nice, but come on, all in all it's not that revolutionary.

    Runs perfectly fine on my system, could use some patches, but still. Whoever gives this game score under 7, i don't even take them seriously as gamers. These are just sad angry people who don't know how to enjoy good things. They like to whine about everything and anything. This game is strong candidate for "The Game Awards" nomination. Best game of November 2020.

    Just chilling around in huge forests in England gives this mystical relaxing vibe and then the music, this games has absolutely amazing soundtrack. Yeah performance could be better, but it's still perfectly playable and runs better than RDR2 did on PC for 2 months. Overall it's very good.

    Ubisoft announced that AC Valhalla had massive launch, glad to see this game is doing well.
    I'm honestly really liking it so far, there's so much to do and explore, story is nice, hood is back, one hit assassination's are back. Easily best game of November 2020.

    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]
