Assassin's Creed: Valhalla - Xbox One

I Don't Like That Some Of The Mission's,You Have To Seek Down And Priest And Eliminated . They Went To Far With This! It's Not For Young Kids

I bought this game 3x for my kids and they seem to really enjoy it!

I am about five hours into the game and loving it so far. I heard there were glitches but I only experienced them in the audio of the cutscenes, which sucks but does not ruin the game. I picked this up on sale for $23 as the first game for my Series X, and I am not disappointed at all.

I have put 70 hours into this game it’s a great game I love Norse mythology!

I was having loads of fun until the bugs started hitting. Lost about 1 week of save data and the random ghosts that kill you whenever the game glitches is fun.

If you are looking for a game with a structured story line that allows you to play the part of a clear protagonist then look past AC (Assassins Creed) Valhalla as you will not find that here. If you like the idea of your primary requirement for progression being to raid, kill and pillage innocent villages and monasteries and burn down the cottages of suffering villagers then by all means this is the game for you! In addition you also get the choice to have an affair with the wife of your best friend and adopted brother. Super! It really makes you feel like a genuine hero... =-/ I gave up hope on the AC series after AC Unity. I tried to give the series a chance again with Odyssey and Origins but was unimpressed. That being said, I liked the story of both WAY better then Valhalla. Despite my recent negative experiences, after seeing awesome commercials and reading rave reviews I had a renewed hope for the series and decided to get the game. After 50+ hours playing the game waiting for things to make sense, provide a sense of purpose and for the story-line to evolve into one where the main character Eivor becomes a good guy I came to the realization that was never going to happen and here I am writing this review. The final straw for me was when a Viking comrade (Ivarr) tricks you (Eivor) into attacking an opposing king (After a Peace deal was made) by framing that opposing king for the murder of a mutual friend . Ok, whatever, I can deal with that you gotta come up with creative reasons to fight big battles... After all, its just a game. The part that absolutely disgusted me is after the battle you are forced to standby while Ivarr tortures the King (who had previously bested Ivarr in a battle and let Ivarr go instead of killing him). No matter what you decide for in game choices (1 - Let the king go, 2 - Let him die from his wounds, 3 - Ok Ivarr do w/e it is you want to do to the king) the game ends up with you watching Ivarr torture a guy for something he didn't do. Furthermore, Ivarr is the one who framed the king and actually killed the mutual friend. If your like me your wondering what the point of in game choices are if they don't effect the outcome. Clearly the choices are superficial. That's lame... Final note - If you may find yourself offended by consistent smears, comments and attacks on the christian faith throughout this game I would advise you to avoid AC Valhalla. Thank you UBISoft for taking a fantastic series that began with Altaïr and Ezio dragging it through the mud while simultaneously riding its coat tails. The quality Story, Cinematic Cut Scenes, Fighting Style, Stealth requirement and Character/Plot development I came to know and love in the AC series seen in Altaïr and Ezio's time is gone and clearly it is not coming back.

I’m coming back to this series after a few games away and I’m so happy to see the open world RPG model applied to the always fun AC gameplay. Overlay that with an engrossing cast and a truly interesting (and often overlooked) historical backdrop, and this game hits all the right notes.

Pros: Love the new concept (we need more viking stuff), graphics are great, storyline is interesting Cons: Game mechanics are awkward, side missions aren’t highlighted, you have to farm 900 hours to reach the appropriate power level So my husband and I follow Norse/Pagan/Asatru, so when I saw the trailer for this I was super stoked to be able to play a game like this. Playing Skyrim, RDR1/2, BL2/3... I guess you could say I’ve been spoiled with my side missions being able to be selected so I could follow along a tad bit easier. This isn’t the case for this game. You have to guess what your directives is and if you follow the main mission when you leave Norway you’re only a power level of 30 going into a level 160 zone...so you can guess how many times I had to restart. Overall it’s fun and great but just know you’re going to have to farm deer/wolves/bears a lot before leaving Norway to have ANY chance at raiding England.

Got this game 3 days before it came out. Good job Target. At first I didn't think I was going to like it as much as Odyssey. but after a few hours in I'm really starting to like it. It will give me something to do for many ours when the winter days start. If you liked Odyssey I think you will like this one to.

I got the game 2 days before if came out

Does anyone know if this is a disc?
