Yes it’s worth it and new players need to take your time and when you get to the point of doing raids you can play with friends for the river raid which is fun!
Ok I just played some of it again and I agree don’t buy or play this game they aren’t doing maintenance on it at all and all the dlc for it are trying to start at the same time.
In my opinion, AC Valhalla is the ultimate Viking simulator. It truly nails the immersion into the Norse golden age and I love it for that! Honestly, I'd pay 30$ just to play the Discovery Tour! That being said, one playthrough is enough as it is indeed quite repetitive...
Personally, I REALLY enjoyed Origins, Odessey and Valhalla. Epic RPG's are so rare and I'm a HUGE ancient history fan. All three are in my top 10, with Mass Effect 1-3 at the top.
I had a ton of fun with this game but good lord did it take forever to complete especially with the expansions lol I do find myself missing the pure stealth of the old games but this style of AC is a lot of fun imo
If you want the classic assassin experience in a modern AC you should play AC mirage. That comes closest to the old AC style in the modern day. And about modern day: They will cut back on it in shadows and transfer it into a hub. Also if you think that valhalla is bad now, you have no idea how it was back when it came out. :D
It has the same story format which ruins it for me, i just want a linear story but Ubisoft keep spamming the regional short questlines crap, its boring, the short stories are almost always just lame and forgettable, hell, taking some of the regions in England with Valhalla are actually important to the main story and yet still fail to be recogniseable because thwycare just a few of the many bland af questlines to taking England and i know Mirage does the regional crap too
I mean if I know sneaking is optional going in no problem, kind of like how I knew Black Flag was gonna be a pirate game with some AC flavor not the inverse.
I played it in late 2021, got it on sale for ~$40 with all of the expansions at that point. I liked it a lot. I had one crash to desktop, but I think it was Windows trying to do something in the background. It took over 300 hours to finish to 100%, about 60 - 70 of those were the actual story, which boils down to meet a region's leader or usurper, help them defend or defeat their kingdom, make new ally. I don't know if it was a bug or something, but I did 100% of everything in this game and never got credits, though there was a long section where fast travel was locked out and a song was playing, maybe the credits were supposed to play there? I didn't have any though, it just keeps going. Still, it was a cool, immersive game with glorious combat and a couple of difficult bosses, and if you have a lot of free time, it's definitely worth it for
Funny that MrHulthen does this video and a day later Big Dan does the same thing! Must be coincidence. That said, I completely agree about Valhalla's bugginess on PC. On average the game seems to crash to desktop about every 15 hours of gameplay for me. Odyssey is a superior and far more polished game and I suspect Valhalla is as buggy as it is as it was probably rushed out the door while the Vikings TV series was still airing.....
Funny, I didn't enjoy raiding, in part because I didn't like trashing the villages (I'm British). I don't like the raids and the group fights and I miss the stealthy assassin aspects. The hack and slash is meh though I'm sure it's a a grand romp if you dig it. I couldn't be bothered to keep at it. ETA - Crashes. Changing the virtual memory setting helped - set it to your RAM size. I came to it after Mirage which is really very good and, imo, far superior to Valhalla. Oh, and yes - god, I hate the Animus rubbish. I was shouting at the screen, "I want my Viking back, not this rubbish!!! WHAT AM I DOING HERE?!?!?!" Mirage has absolutely zero Animus junk IIRC. It's really good yet everyone seems intent on ignoring it.
I even brought Season Pass and regret it, you can't even play Ragnarök DLC or atleast around the time it first came out. the game got repetitively boring that i didn't even bother touching the DLC
I love how long this game is. Not like an MMO where you're just fetch-questing for weeks at a time, but having an actual story to play through. Same as Odyssey. It's not bloat if there's a story behind it, and Valhalla has lots of lengthy stories. Fun as hell viking simulator too. An RPG I can sink my teeth into without worrying about finishing too fast or rushing through. Like a more Norse-themed Skyrim, but with a point. Gotta disagree on Stealth though, you can go whole playthroughs as a stealthy character.
Valhalla is not only one of the longest games I have ever played in my life but you feel every minute of it. By the time I was done there was nothing left in me. I felt drained of any life I had left. Valhalla is padded out with arcs that don't need to be there and forced grinding to progress the main story. There is no new game plus so if you wanted to replay the game you would just have to do everything all over again. Personally I have no desire to go back and replay it just because of how long and tedious it is.
I didn’t experience any bugs/crashes playing, must be a pc thing. I loved this game though, I know the game is long but that didn’t bother me. People also just hate the game because it’s not an assassin creed game, which is stupid but understandable when it’s a title in the series. This game has probably some of the best music and ambiance out of all the ac games. I thought story was good and combat was solid. The world is probably my favorite thing about it. The graphics in this game is great and so is the art direction. They made all the different environments look so good, I usually just ride around admiring the world.
I love Valhalla, I love the man Eivor. The best of all the games I've played. I've already completed the game 100% twice, but I'll definitely come back to it. I love Valhalla. Kocham Valhalla.
I never had crashes. I had anomalies which I believe were deliberate. I posted some: Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Just Cleaning Up then This Happened Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Stranger Things Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Just Doing My Job then got Warped Away
I know Cecilie from Danish TV, and tbh, in valhala, she sound like she have something big stuck where the sun don't shine. That's why i picked male in this game.
I highly recommend Valhalla, but it sounds like my game play experience, playing style, and enjoyment exploring an open world is very different. Be aware it's not really an AC game. In that sense, it's kind of a bait and switch. It's a world with assassins in the background. There is a strong link between Eivor and the assassins, and she interacts with them as well as the Templars (I'm avoiding spoilers). Interesting comment about stealth / assassin being 'underbaked'. I disagree. That's how I played it, which is how I play most games when possible, and I loved it in Valhalla. My husband played as the rushing, crashing berserker, and he liked that. I thought the game did a good job of providing alternative ways of playing almost everything. Sneaking, climbing, ambushing from on high allowed me to kill bosses that were much higher level than me - bosses that my husband had to wait to kill until he leveled up several times; he'd be 'you kill HIM?' but when I showed him how, he wasn't interested because stealth isn't his thing. But I love plotting, planning, patience, and surprise attacks. I totally agree about the modern day sections being "eh". Too interrupting without much of a story. Another interesting comment about the world being too big and repetitive. I disagree. If you like exploring (like Skyrim), you'll love it and I did. Valhalla is a true open world in Norway and again in England. Each area has it's own ambience. Yes, there are 'edges' but you can run / ride your horse from one edge of the country to the other; you can sail your boat around the entire coastline and down rivers deep enough for a boat. If you see a distant mountain, the odds are you'll be able to get to the top. Interesting about the game getting boring. I alternated raiding / looting with quests for the various storylines. That variety was great for me. I guess if you just did all the raids (there are a LOT), and then just did a storyline to completion, I can see that getting boring. But it's great to bounce back and forth - quest for a while, raid for a while, build your settlement for a while. In your settlement, you'll eventually get a group that only does special raids on some special river only accessible to that group -- in that case, the game is very limited geographically. That did get boring to me, so I stopped that after about the 3rd or 4th trip - but that is a small part of the game, it has no impact on any of the quest lines, and I found plenty of other places in the main areas to raid. Another interesting observation about crashing. I did read it was nasty when it first came out - crashing and graphics issues. I got this game about a year after it came out, so I had all of the major updates and patches. I played this on my Xbox and had almost no problems with crashing or graphics; my husband played on his PC and ditto - almost no problems with crashing. Occasionally, sure - I could count them on 2 hands. Usually I hadn't quit the game / restarted my console in a few days. My husband said he was usually running something else on his PC. As long as I had quit the game and started fresh, I personally had very, very few problems - offline or online. Vahalla is a big game if you do everything. I think it's really fun, and I'm about ready for my next replay.
The game plays much better on PS5 and I haven’t encountered any bugs besides one crash that happened during the beginning of my playthrough. I’m almost 80 hours in and I’m enjoying the game more than I thought. I’ve never played on pc but for PS5 I do recommend buying this game to other players who enjoy the franchise.
They should have just sold this as ''Valhalla''' This is not really an ''assassin'' game and having that in front of it kind of masks what kind of fun game this is. If you weren't a fan of sneaking around for one shots and parry killing this might be an alternative. Although you can still just one shot and take on 50 dudes like in the older games.
Odyssey and Valhalla are - *for me* - the best entries in the series. I loved the first three games, never played Origins, and haven't played the games released since Valhalla, but those two games are a prime example of how to shift your franchises play style and still stay true to the feel of the original IP. I wish they'd stuck with this recipe instead of doing... whatever they think they're doing with Shadows. I *do* agree that Valhalla kind of lost its own plot after the second 'chapter' though. I never actually finished it, though I still go back in and play it every year or so. I've dumped a LOT of hours into the game, but I get more enjoyment going on raids and wandering the world than actually following the story.
Im playing right now, not big fan of AC series so i dnt cry coz this not "assassin" game. Same for odysei and shadow. Im just enjoy good game and thats all.
This is one of the few occasions in recent years where I find the male voice talent better than the female one. For the record, I preferred the female voice option in Dragon Age 2, Dragon Age: Inquisition, AC: Odyssey, Cyberpunk 2077 (Cherami Leigh is a voice acting goddess and I will die proudly on that hill :) Yet, Magnus Bruun just sounds better to me. He does have a bit of an unfair advantage, as he played a very similar role in "The Last Kingdom" TV series, and he was one of the more memorable antagonists to the main character in seasons 3 and 4. Anyway, I am totally with you about the rest, the game has some bright spots, but it is too bloated, which drowns any good impressions you may get.
are the constant crashes a pc problem or a general problem? because I plan on getting it on my ps5 and I'm wondering if the game will crash on that too
I played through it last year. As someone who is not a fan of assassin’s creed, I had a good time. It’s not a meaningful deep time. Elden ring or Witcher 3 this is not. To me, it felt like junk food. Not amazing but I had a good time with it. Maybe could’ve been spent in a better way but I don’t have any complaints.
It was fun at first but its the regional questlines that rui it for me, the combat alone was boring and bland I really liked the starting questline before you go to England, its linear The reason why im against the region questlines is they make any actual story feel disjointed and even confusing as even still most people have no clue what was really going on, i myself remember being extremely lost at on the first playthrough, the region quest thing also really stops any good character development, especially for the slightly lesser known characters, Sigurd i believe was the only interesting character but at the same time him getting pissed off all the time for little to no reason was really annoying
IMO it was a decent game at launch that ironically became worse the more patches and content drops it got. 6 months post launch was the ideal version of the main game then they just added more bloat and post launch content that didn't contribute much to the gameplay or Eivor's character.
I assumed this was a huge flop when it released, the opening lines of this video was a big surprise to me. I saw one trailer about this game and instantly wrote it off in 2020 and have not thought about it since. Still looks really bland.
From what I've heard there is going to be a big focus on the Animus and the modern day lore, but it's not playable sections and most of it is optional. So if you don't care about the modern day, you can skip most of it @@MrHulthen
If you enjoy massive open worlds that never seem to end, then sure this could scratch that itch. I'd suggest trying out the originals tho. Black Flag is one of my favorites because it balanced the Assassin storyline with the open world pretty well
No. Why? Ubisoft did a Ubisoft on it... Ah yes, "this genetic memory was male" this memory took place six months later was female. The gender ideology baked into this was enough to ruin the whole experience from the very offset. it showed the level of activism in the developers before I even played 10 minutes.
The Norse mythology parts are really bad. On my first play through I didn't realize they were optional. Beyond that the game is okay. It could have been much better if the game wasn't so large. My first play through was 105 hrs only to find out later I still had one mission to go to beat the game. The present day stuff is bleh as per usual. I tried to replay this a few months ago and it was better than the first run I had. More enjoyable. I still didn’t beat it. I got distracted with other games and there’s no real desire to return to it.
valhalla is the ultimate junk food game. its not great or anything but i kinda always want more. i have 300 hours in but kinda dont know if it wasnt just waste of time xd
Man I am so glad to see someone change their recommendation over tech issues. This game is ridiculous with how much it crashes, terrible frame pacing, and overall just an awful tech display. I don't even bother installing it because I know it'll be 5 minutes and a crash.
As far as modern part... they shouldn't remove it as it has always been a part of AC, but they really need to give players option to simply skip it. It's very new player unfriendly as well, since new player has no idea what's that about and new Ac games fail to give a proper proper explanation on what is going on in modern day before throwing the player into the actual game. But generally. The Assasin Creed title in those games is really there just for marketing value. Many of those games would make much more sense without it to begin with. Especially the newest one where new male MC can't even do basis AC gameplay.
Assassin's Creed: Valhalla is better then I thought it would be, BUT...
Yes it’s worth it and new players need to take your time and when you get to the point of doing raids you can play with friends for the river raid which is fun!
Than*
I didn’t know it was crushing for pc players but if someone told Ubisoft it was doing that I’m sure they would send someone to check it out
Play it on console. Runs like a dream on Series X. No crashes or anything.
Ok I just played some of it again and I agree don’t buy or play this game they aren’t doing maintenance on it at all and all the dlc for it are trying to start at the same time.
I played Vahalla like a "based Vicking action rpg" and it was a great journey.
In my opinion, AC Valhalla is the ultimate Viking simulator. It truly nails the immersion into the Norse golden age and I love it for that! Honestly, I'd pay 30$ just to play the Discovery Tour! That being said, one playthrough is enough as it is indeed quite repetitive...
the ultimate viking simulator where the vikings dont slaughter civilians and r*pe people (they're the good guys trust me)
I loved Valhalla. Never understood the hate. I played it for exactly 100 hours, and I loved it.
I also love valhalla, but the hate is for the fact it's called assassins Creed when it's not an assassins Creed game. It's more of a viking simulator
Valhalla is pretty good it’s the most play ac games
Because you like men
@@Gulmanzo66it’s a ac game.
@@Dailymotivations2 not really
Personally, I REALLY enjoyed Origins, Odessey and Valhalla. Epic RPG's are so rare and I'm a HUGE ancient history fan. All three are in my top 10, with Mass Effect 1-3 at the top.

AC Odyssey will always be my favorite among the modern AC games
I love it to be honest. Spent so many hours and so much in the helix store. I’ve played it like 3 times over all the way through.
If you want the classic assassin experience in a modern AC you should play AC mirage.
That comes closest to the old AC style in the modern day.
And about modern day: They will cut back on it in shadows and transfer it into a hub.
Also if you think that valhalla is bad now, you have no idea how it was back when it came out. :D
I love mirage basim alone carry the game for me
It has the same story format which ruins it for me, i just want a linear story but Ubisoft keep spamming the regional short questlines crap, its boring, the short stories are almost always just lame and forgettable, hell, taking some of the regions in England with Valhalla are actually important to the main story and yet still fail to be recogniseable because thwycare just a few of the many bland af questlines to taking England and i know Mirage does the regional crap too
Nope, in my humble opinion. Unless you like a bunch of “hulk smash”. Nothing “assassin” about this game.
I mean if I know sneaking is optional going in no problem, kind of like how I knew Black Flag was gonna be a pirate game with some AC flavor not the inverse.
I guess you can say the same for Black Flag. Not much assassin fantasy.
I played it in late 2021, got it on sale for ~$40 with all of the expansions at that point. I liked it a lot.

I would recommend Origins. Valhalla is the worst of the RPG AC
100% Origins was the best of the new ones
Origins is the best one. But if anyone loves Greek myths, Odyssey is an easy recommendation.
Wasn't worth it even when it was new
What a shame. Thanks, once again, for saving my wallet.
Come on everyone! Like and sub to MrHulthen for making the largest sacrifice for us!
Absolutely love the Vikings series! Travis did a fantastic job as Ragnar!
No, not only the worst Assassin's Creed game but one of the worst open world games ever made. 😂
Funny that MrHulthen does this video and a day later Big Dan does the same thing! Must be coincidence. That said, I completely agree about Valhalla's bugginess on PC. On average the game seems to crash to desktop about every 15 hours of gameplay for me.

It wasn't worth playing when it lauched lol

The hack and slash is meh though I'm sure it's a a grand romp if you dig it. I couldn't be bothered to keep at it. ETA - Crashes. Changing the virtual memory setting helped - set it to your RAM size.
I came to it after Mirage which is really very good and, imo, far superior to Valhalla.
Oh, and yes - god, I hate the Animus rubbish. I was shouting at the screen, "I want my Viking back, not this rubbish!!! WHAT AM I DOING HERE?!?!?!"
Mirage has absolutely zero Animus junk IIRC. It's really good yet everyone seems intent on ignoring it.
I played 80hrs but couldn’t finish it as I got really bored
I even brought Season Pass and regret it, you can't even play Ragnarök DLC or atleast around the time it first came out. the game got repetitively boring that i didn't even bother touching the DLC
I love how long this game is. Not like an MMO where you're just fetch-questing for weeks at a time, but having an actual story to play through. Same as Odyssey. It's not bloat if there's a story behind it, and Valhalla has lots of lengthy stories. Fun as hell viking simulator too. An RPG I can sink my teeth into without worrying about finishing too fast or rushing through. Like a more Norse-themed Skyrim, but with a point.

This game was such a 90-hour waste of my time back in the day.
Yes, I'm playing it right now.
Valhalla is not only one of the longest games I have ever played in my life but you feel every minute of it. By the time I was done there was nothing left in me.

This game drags and drags and drags. Cant believe i finished.
I never had crashes. I had anomalies which I believe were deliberate. I posted some:
Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Just Cleaning Up then This Happened
Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Stranger Things
Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Just Doing My Job then got Warped Away
It starts nicely and then it gets boooooooring
So yea either speed run this or don't even bother
I know Cecilie from Danish TV, and tbh, in valhala, she sound like she have something big stuck where the sun don't shine. That's why i picked male in this game.
This game gets too much hate. I love the dark vibe it gave, especially in the wrath of the druids and the Paris DLC.
I highly recommend Valhalla, but it sounds like my game play experience, playing style, and enjoyment exploring an open world is very different. Be aware it's not really an AC game.

Got through about halfway through the story and then got fed up with all the side stories. So in the end watched a yt vid for the story ending

I liked it a lot but not as an AC game, which I get is the problem with it all. It was such a good game, when you don't think about the AC part
I have AC: Valhalla, it doesn't crash for me but it will crash sometimes by alt+tabbing for to long or staying in a menu to long, might be me
I never had the game crash for me
There's zero modern day in Mirage but they are returning it in Shadows.
The game changed for me the minute I found Thors hammer.🤣
are the constant crashes a pc problem or a general problem? because I plan on getting it on my ps5 and I'm wondering if the game will crash on that too
On PC i solved it by going offline. Console i can't say, but i'd imagine it's more stable there
You could’ve just bought a Ubisoft subscription for like 8 dollars and bought the game for cheap instead of wasting 70 dollars 😂😂😂😂
I played through it last year. As someone who is not a fan of assassin’s creed, I had a good time. It’s not a meaningful deep time. Elden ring or Witcher 3 this is not. To me, it felt like junk food.

Idk, after seeing Shadows and the Animus hub I feel like the comment about Ubisoft trying to steer away from the Animus aged like milk 😅
lmao maybe, but what i really meant was the Animus sections or modern sections 😂
From what I've heard there is going to be a big focus on the Animus and the modern day lore, but it's not playable sections and most of it is optional. So if you don't care about the modern day, you can skip most of it @@MrHulthen
Nope, wait for shadows
Short answer: no.
Play Witcher 3
How about someone that never played an assasin game? Is it worth it?
If you enjoy massive open worlds that never seem to end, then sure this could scratch that itch. I'd suggest trying out the originals tho. Black Flag is one of my favorites because it balanced the Assassin storyline with the open world pretty well
Played ODYSSEY 6500 hours...valhalla gave up after 120 hours never come back...not worth
How the f*ck?
Not a good idea for a video
No.
Why? Ubisoft did a Ubisoft on it...
Ah yes,
"this genetic memory was male" this memory took place six months later was female. The gender ideology baked into this was enough to ruin the whole experience from the very offset.
it showed the level of activism in the developers before I even played 10 minutes.
The Norse mythology parts are really bad. On my first play through I didn't realize they were optional.
Beyond that the game is okay. It could have been much better if the game wasn't so large. My first play through was 105 hrs only to find out later I still had one mission to go to beat the game.
The present day stuff is bleh as per usual.
I tried to replay this a few months ago and it was better than the first run I had. More enjoyable. I still didn’t beat it. I got distracted with other games and there’s no real desire to return to it.
I wish the sneak was better but i enjoyed the game
valhalla is the ultimate junk food game. its not great or anything but i kinda always want more. i have 300 hours in but kinda dont know if it wasnt just waste of time xd
AC Valhalla is NOT SWEDISH LMFAOO 0:47
I mean, as a game about Vikings it's a good/decent game, buuuuuuuuuut (at least for me) it's not an Assassin's Creed game 😐
Im really enjoying it on PS.
I'd rather just watch The Last Kingdom.
Valhalla doesn't have the full game on a physical copy, so I won't buy it.
it looks amazing!
No ng+,play one time and thats it.
No
Long and boring finishers make it impossible for me to play again.
You would think it would be patched by now.
Yes for me.
Man, times must be tough if you're doing this kind of video on assassin's creed Valhalla.
Not really, but I figured i might aswell play it before Shadows :p
Man I am so glad to see someone change their recommendation over tech issues. This game is ridiculous with how much it crashes, terrible frame pacing, and overall just an awful tech display. I don't even bother installing it because I know it'll be 5 minutes and a crash.
Yes it's good
As far as modern part... they shouldn't remove it as it has always been a part of AC, but they really need to give players option to simply skip it.
It's very new player unfriendly as well, since new player has no idea what's that about and new Ac games fail to give a proper proper explanation on what is going on in modern day before throwing the player into the actual game.
But generally. The Assasin Creed title in those games is really there just for marketing value. Many of those games would make much more sense without it to begin with. Especially the newest one where new male MC can't even do basis AC gameplay.
lol you also feel asleep on ac Valhalla 🤣 I did to
told you 😂
