[@ConstantineJoseph]

Francia during the 9th century was going through a decline down to the civil wars between the Frankish kings who were descendants of Charlemagne. Much of dark age Francia revolved around villages and churches that were well stocked with the most ornate reliquaries and gifts from the local populace. Power had shifted from the central authority of the western Francia king to the local Dukes who were military commanders and governors of the respective provinces. Hence, fortifications were built to house the elite and the peasantry covered the vast swaths of Frankish land, farming and tilling the land, rearing livestock etc.... If you are looking for large medieval towns, no you really aren't going to find much of them. Life pretty much centered around probably a local market along with a well built church that is often used as a rallying point for Frankish soldiers to assemble and hold a local position during a Viking attack during the 9th century. Only in the 10th and 11th century, we start to see wooden fortifications like the Motte and Bailey which are formidable anti Viking forts that easily staved off surprise attacks. Also in the 10th and 11th century, the Franks were heavily militarized and started to put most resources into an elite small band of fighters that are the proto type of the medieval knights who would strike with great mobility and also are trained from birth. Power by then had shifted entirely to the dukes in France as the budding of the medieval era began right in France herself. So for the 9th century, you can't expect much from a Francia DLC to have ancient Egypt like architecture and grandeur. Basically Francia or Western Europe was rather poorly populated and life was down to a mere simplicity since the fall of the western Roman Empire where the Franks had moved in, taking the reins of power and assimilating with the Gallo Romans in France. The rest is history.

[@pneumonoultramicroscopicsi4065]

Assassin's creed, like many ubisoft games, need continuity in narrative, they really need a story that ties everything together, they can't keep treating every game as standalone, they need to make the story matter, otherwise the games will feel samey and pointless, they release a lot of games as well, people will get burned out, they HAVE to make a story that unfolds with every installment. But it seems they found another solution, make one game and support it with content, we will see how it turns out.

@Logan Legend people will nitpick? With Odyssey maybe but from what I’ve seen with Valhalla it’s far more than just “nitpicking”. Also saying they are masterpieces is waaaaaaay too generous. Fair enough if you prefer those games more power to you, but most people don’t share your opinion as it is fair to say Ubisoft are headed in the wrong direction.

[@BamberdittoPingpong]

Yeah, all of England just felt clunky af, fitting all that much area into a small map. Norway was better as they fit a small part of the country into a relatively decent sized area, but these large countries they have made the last few games, it just feels too empty and clunky.

Imo it feels like ubisoft put most of the budget in the very first scene with younger eivor when they get attacked. Like the atmosphere felt cared for, the npcs weren't robotic like the rest of the game. Even this DLC looks lackluster.
