[@CompleteProducer84]

Great review! One thing to note, you mentioned that you can’t really go all stealth due to the Raids. What I’ve been doing is just taking out the raid camps by myself in stealth, and then calling in a raid after most of the camp is dead for the sole purpose of opening the doors and chests. I’ve been doing pretty much 80% stealth the whole game, and it’s been awesome.

[@masterassassin791]

That’s a good idea I tried that a few times but I still wish there was more options for stealth in the raids on the main campaign rather than just constantly having battering Ram your way through gates and slaughtering waves and waves of enemies

[@CompleteProducer84]

@@masterassassin791 Yeah I hear ya, they should have worked stealth into the story more because it’s a lot more fun than I thought it’d be due to the pretty unique layouts of a lot of the enemy camps

[@ericg1100]

It was cool when it worked but it was inaccurate, it wouldnt target someone that would be a priority, such as someone pointing a gun at you. And sometimes it would just glitch you out. But when it worked correctly it was cool. I just finished Unity for the first time, my third asscreed game after 4 and Rogue, and I was blown away by the first few hours then it steadily grew more dull and its problems began to show. I liked how tactile it felt combat wise compared to 4/Rogue, but it didnt feel as “snappy,” if that makes sense. Also it pissed me off that some stealth options wouldnt work, like killing someone whos next to waist high cover youre hiding behind, or the double air assassination NEVER working. In Rogue i could sprint full speed wiling out guards two at a time. On the ground it works in unity, but the air drops never worked correctly and always ended up with me killing one guy and getting spotted by the other. And yes, i bought the upgrade. It never worked. I loved loved loved the parkour traversal and graphics, but i guess chsracter wise it was a small and lame story compared even to Rogue which is more of a side story than a main series entry i feel

[@takeoff782]

Agree. That game had so much potential but the sheer size of the game just fucked it up so much and caused so many issues. On top of that, the story was kinda shit, especially compared to 1-Revelations

Wow man, first time I've ever commented on a review. You did a really great job. From the viewpoints to the video clips included. I really did enjoy it. I was thinking I was going to hear a lot of criticism but instead you picked the good and the bad about every topic. I've only came across 1 "having to restart the game" bug in 60 hours. I'm enjoying the game personally but it's not gonna be for everyone. If you're into the Viking culture it's definitely worth a buy. Wait until it goes on sale. I haven't regretted it yet. Thanks for shedding some updated light on this beautiful game the way you did though! A true fan will buy it no matter what though. Love the AC fam 💪🏻

[@vincent7306]

Great review! One thing though, I found that you actually get quite often the opportunity to use stealth, for example oin raids.

[@DonHewlett3]

Combat gets way more fun dual wielding with special abilities for your second weapon and forces you to be more aggressive. I thought it was boring with a shield too but when I switched to dual axes I started having way more fun. Still not as cinematic as the older games but much better than playing it safe with the shield.

[@masterassassin791]

Well I actually got Excalibur at about 40 hours in and that refreshed the combat a little bit but again after a while it gets old.

[@DonHewlett3]

@@masterassassin791 I can have fun with it at times but it definitely gets repetitive so I use stealth as much as possible. Funny how this combat is "more complex" than the original games but imo less fun because it lacks the cinematic flair and excitement of the older games.

[@progdragon9218]

There's a skill that allows you to oneshot assassinate any enemy, if you can hit a skillcheck. I think that's so much better than just guaranteed onehits with no repercussions. The extra stealth dmg upgrades just make them easier, so they're not completely useless.

[@phrawga]

the skill check is not engaging, also it hinders the animation itself, which is pretty shit. You would prefer that over the fluidity and stylishness of unity assassinations? there are already repercussions for stealth too, its more methodical, thats also why the reward is the one shot, why make it more methodical?

Got the Complete edition on sale 2 weeks ago. Loving the game! I am playing it on one difficulty just bellow the highest and let me tell you...Combat is NOT boring x-D If and when I will feel overpowered I will go to top difficulty. Combat is always more involved in higher difficulties. Side quests ( mysteries) are great and some of them are very funny or touching. Main story has awesome cinematic sequencies never before seen in an Assassin's game. It involves some quite shocking moments as well. Still can't get over the Ivar/Ceolbert questline. Overall, and as a HUGE fan of Odyssey, I think that Valhalla might be the better game in the end. Although village pillaging and monastery raids don't sit well with my roleplay and the lack of naval battles might not lead me placing it higher in the end...I m still playing :)

Review was great 👍,but if I say , I was not so hyped for valhalla (even if I am an assasins creed fan ) because , origins , odessey and even in some cases valhalla are very different from assasins creed source material which made the prior ac games special from other open world games . I can agree ac origins as an assasins creed game but I cant say this about ac odessey . Valhalla came back to the routes of origins . Overall great review . I think the last true assasin's creed game musy be ac unity or syndicate .

I’m glad people are liking this game. I haven’t really enjoyed it all that much so far, beyond it’s a big video game in 2021, so it’s fun enough. My hope is maybe it’s just the setting that bores me or the fact that I’m a Viking that makes it hard to root for the character. I’ve definitely liked the gameplay of Odyssey and Origins better, but I will say that hunting is better in Valhalla. As far as combat, it seems cartoony and very easy compared to the nice challenge of Odyssey and Origins. The easiness also doesn’t really incentivize stealth all to much. Not trying to hate though, a lot of people like it so it’s clearly a good game. Just hoping the setting and character of the next one is more captivating to me.

Haha that’s awesome man I appreciate it thank you. It’d be hard to compare the games because they are so different but maybe I’ll look into it. Thank you for the suggestion!

[@RT-bt5ql]

I didn’t like Ac 3,Origins or Odyssey. But I love this one;it’s so much fun imo. The combat and world feel great

[@goldendoodlegaming480]

Origins was great shut up kid you know nothing

[@painthuret]

You didnt like ac3 ??! You're crazy its this game but with the assasin creed combat system not this new thing

[@natecorwin4382]

Even though most people don’t like the Asgard arc which I can respect and I understand it is heavy with the lore of course I don’t want to spoil anything about it so you know I recommend playing it because you know I don’t wanna spoil for the people didn’t play the game yet ,but it has a lot of isu lore and you have to read in between the lines when you’re playing it to understand it better

[@masterassassin791]

Very true. It was cool don’t get me wrong I’m just not sure if I liked how it fit into the AC world

[@natecorwin4382]

@@masterassassin791 yeah I understand that I think the game would’ve worked well with out it but at least it gave us some more background on isu stuff and they handled it way better than odyssey imo

I love how this guy goes about the modern day at 3:20 saying "there's some cool returning characters that I won't spoil" CC says "Rebecca" LOL

Let the Animus choose is the canonical option

[@overheatedeskim054]

I think you mean similar to settlement in Assassins Creed 3. AC3 had the settlement that you could upgrade and unlock new stuff

[@piotrmontgomerytv7786]

Fun Fact: When you are not upgraded everyone kills you, however when you Max out your character, no one can kill you.

[@Jok3rzGrinn]

Ever sense AC 1 I was hooked, I bought everyone after that (the ultimate edition) Stopped playing them at AC Unity though 😆.

[@emh8849]

Try origins it's one of the best surpassed only by black flag and revelations

[@timothy3014]

We need a more modern day assassin’s creed. You can argue the watch dogs 1 and legion are like that but they could go way more in depth. I would also like to see some sort of watch dogs cross over because they take place in the same universe. I’d really want to see some of the assassins going after pierce since they killed one of their own during a fixer contract.

[@masterassassin791]

That would be really cool. A game dedicated to the modern assassins.

This game is a 6/10 at best... Ubisoft probably paid you to give such a good review...

[@bikkyychaudhry4510]

So, social stealth is back. Good. That's step 1. Now, bring back Unity like large intricate cities and parkour. And implement a Ghost of Tsushima like combat (preferably with better animations) and I'll start buying Assassin's Creed games again.

Maybe it's just me but I just miss and Love the combat system From AC 3 To Unity I'm just not feeling the new RPG system since it's like a common trope in hundreds of games. The previous games had combat which was unique to the franchise. Especially those finish cinematics with minor enemies

[@stealthkills]

Ashraf Ismail the creator of ac4, origins and ac Valhalla got fired not too long ago. No matter whether this game was good or shit, I’m quite worried about the ac franchise at this point. The main ac director got fired during brotherhood, ac franchise went down from there. Alex amancio responsible for unity is also gone due to the horrible launch start up for that game. He also made revelations too. Not bad huh? Alex Hutchinson for ac3 is off for his own studio. See what I’m saying? The game directors who made this franchise originally great is gone. I honestly don’t know if ac franchise will return back once to its roots or continue the downhill it has embarked ever since the original director was fired remains to be seen.

[@masterassassin791]

Yeah that was some troubling news I heard too and it sucks because Ashraf was the only game director left that listened to what the fans of the older games wanted. Not to mention this next game is likely going to be made by Ubisoft Quebec so brace yourselves for Assassins Creed Odyssey 1.5. I hope someone else is willing to re focus the series but we have to wait and see, but when it comes to giving the fans what they want and making money, money wins all day for Ubisoft.

[@stealthkills]

@@masterassassin791 I blame the consumers, whoever buys games like Odyssey or even Valhalla are the ones signalling the wrong intentions to Ubisoft. I myself have stopped buying at release ever since syndicate. It’s just not worth it anymore. The franchise had changed too much. You know, I expected Shaun and Rebecca to use the shroud from syndicate to revive Desmond and have Ubisoft return to what assassins creed was. However I guess they just ignored that opportunity, I wish Desmond could get revived as it is proven the shroud does revive people, if we could just have a few more games on him that will be great. I never knew the franchise I loved and cherished so much will go to shit like it has today. Assassins creed used to have such a strong story. Now it’s in relation to all these ridiculous and stupid mythical Greek beasts or some fantasy shit like Atlanta.

[@alejandrogarcia7938]

Long story short buy it on sale!. I'm waiting for the dlcs to be on sale to buy them

[@KingRobertIofScots]

It’s a really pretty game. I’ll give it that. Everything else about it is kind of monotonous and mostly just grind. The stories are cool, but take too long and can also become boring. The world could’ve been more immersive if they had skipped forward a couple hundred years to the medieval era.

[@matodragonespor5000]

Is there a problem if I play Valhalla without having finished Odyssey? I really want to play Valhalla but I don't wanna get to lost with the story...

[@Shamoneee]

Combat isnt boring if it is challenging

[@zVampiirePlatypus]

Will you be updating this with a new score? 8.5 seems very high for this game.

[@onlyrio5016]

Also you do have to do side missions, im playing on saga so I don’t but I’m playing up to 100 behind the recommended power so I assume you would have to side quests or get completely out powered
