    One thing that irks me is that there is a restriction in early-game on upgrades and materials. It starts out you just need a carbon ingot and iron/leather for upgrades, but then they lock out further upgrades until you have iron bars and linen and other materials that just aren't available early on.

    Love the review.
    Quick nit-pick "When you arrive in England..."
    This should be "When you arrive on Great Britain..."
    England is a country made up of different political entities that are separate (and not yet "England") at the begining of the game and even then are predominately situated in the south of Great Britain.
    Great Britain, on the other hand, is the name of the Island (the largest island in the British Isles). So the character lands on Great Britain.

  • @GreyKingZero
    @GreyKingZero 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    It kinda reminds me of the For Honor's combat. But Valhalla gives me hope for AC games as it is continuing with a RPG style that works.
    Problems with the game are space needed for consoles is for me painful, that and it lacks somethings that were added in updates to Odyssey like NG+ and armour appearance customization stuff like that. That as well as the amount of bugs and crashes I hear about is kinda traumatizing because there were quests in Odyssey that did not even pop up because of the bugs no matter how many times I reloaded or even start a new game.

      From what I have heard they use modern versions of the historical names, like Alfred instead of Ælfred, and London instead of Londinium or Lundenwic (disappinting), and most of the actors butcher the pronunciations of the Scandinavian names, like saying Bjorn (similar to the English word 'born') instead of the proper Bjørn (similar to the English word 'burn').

    Moving from here, id love it if Ubisoft’s next challenge was almost a remake of Assassins Creed 1 with a combo of this open world/combat style with a return to the story of the first game. By “remake” i mean redoing the setting and story of the first game but expanding it. Think it could work as a sequel too, and for the “in-universe” reasoning for returning to that game would be something like “we missed something in Desmond’s animus experience, let’s go back to where it all began with him”. Also an “in-universe” reasoning for the “remake” feel would be the fact we’re using a completely new animus that is several versions more advanced than the original, hence why were able to explore more of Altair’s setting and world.

    @TheGrafixbox 3 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    I'm really enjoying Valhalla. Mainly because it's a good solid viking game experience. I've never been a fan of the previous games as they always felt a bit silly. Why would I wear this distinct bright white hooded suit that screamed 'assassin incoming' in a crowd full of normally dressed peasents. Especially since the templars would be trained on seeking out the assassins lol. The stealth in this game felt more natural. I felt like I was casing the towns out like a thief before a viking heist in this game. Especially as the dress sense and colour blends in more, as opposed to a fancy guided white gold robe like in the other games. But I do think they are trying to force the Absturgo modern day Animus stuff a bit too much. Probably because it's the only link that makes this an AC game, without it, it would just be a viking rpg

      No offense, but you cannot tell me that Odyssey is better. Coming from someone who's played 70hrs in both, Odyssey has the better map and sea exploration and that is it. The detail and combat in Valhalla is way more fluid and realistic while in Odyssey nearly every ability attack animation looks like something you'd see in a mobile game. The VA for Alexios wasn't bad, but in the game the mouthing was awful. The creed has more of an impact in Valhalla while in Odyssey it lacks. I genuinely want to know how one would think Odyssey is a better game.

I don't care about any of that, I just want to play the actual game and not that minigame of sorts with the memories of who knows who.
    Desmond was okay because that's how the whole franchise started, but after a few games it gets really stale. It's just a gimmick, and a really boring one at that imo.
    All in all, I still think I'm gonna enjoy the game for what it is just like the previous 2. I treat them as chill exploration games, and I don't invest myself too much into the story, it's usually pretty meh. But the world crafting tends to be pretty interesting.

    I bought the Gold edition and I'm about 20 hours in and im getting pretty irritated with it. Very little reward for my time. Virtually no loot, stealth is bad, the leveling system is a mess. Really disagree with you on this one I think. I think this may be as bad as unity. Thanks for the content though man. Keep it up!

    I was told this was the best game since black flag and I foolishly fell for it. I didn’t really like Odyssey but found it much better than this game, this game is such a boring, bloated game to play through and the combat is just so lazy.

      I've played nearly every AC game and could never get through any of them until Origins or Odyssey, and I got the platinum on both.

    When I played origins what I really loved about the game was the exploration and the mystery of ancient Egypt. I liked delving in into ancient temples and finding the isu artifacts and messages. Each temple was unique in its own way. Something that wasn’t in odyssey

    Graphically it's stunning. Combat is good. Nice ambience. Voice acting top notch. Some of the story arcs are surprisingly good. The puzzles are tons of fun. Cringe woke garbage ruining a potentially epic experience though. Sad. Nice that for once though, a reviewer isn't just taking a dump on the game with the usual litany of whines "too long too boring blah blah."

    Bad take not an assassins creed game shoulda been called "Viking Game" and it wouldve went down better with people. Attaching AC's name to it was an absolute joke when it literally featured nothing from AC other than Viewpoints and Assassinations but apart from them its not an AC game at all. Shite story writing aswell

    • @ro6uefour50
      @ro6uefour50 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      While I agree with some of what you said, Valhalla is more of an Assassins Creed game than Odyssey. You said that it only has viewpoints and assassinations which you are right. Odyssey doesn’t even have a hidden blade and it takes place way before the creed was even made.

    Probably unpopular opinion, but I kind of wish there was an option to turn off all the future animus stuff. I get it, it’s assassins creed, but I literally only played odyssey for the Greek stuff, and the future crap just annoyed me. It was always at the least convenient times. Just having an option to remove that stuff and just play the Viking world would be nice for those of us who might not care as much about the whole simulated reality portions. It’s just a matter of immersion.
