Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Gameplay Details Update

Offering a slight glimpse into the games narrative, Eivor is said to meet up other assassin’s during the course of the game, though he or she does not necessarily know what it means to be an assassin. In addition, we are told that early on players will see Eivor receive the hidden blade...

Saw a gameplay video for this and still not sure why they continue to call these assassin's creed when they are more action based now. Just call it Time warriors or something like that.

Assassin’s Creeds' Cutscenes And Voicelines Have Digressed Over Time

Assassin’s Creed has always been a staple for good cutscenes that engage the audience. However, it's grown lacking of the latter now.

The story was at its most interesting early in the series, but has eventually ended up spinning its wheels going nowhere. The games don't feel linked together anymore. This is to make it easier to constantly churn out endless sequels.

gold_drake56d ago

absolutely agree.

it was so interesting and then ..

montebristo56d ago

The smaller more intimate maps and historic references are lost. The setting used to be a character in AC. Now it’s just a massive empty shell of its former self.

Almost every Assassin's Creed game is $12 or less — get them cheap

There's never been a better time to get into Assassin's Creed thanks to these deals.

Im so behind on AC. I gotta start up Brotherhood 😄

anast65d ago

I got Odyssey and Mirage to play still.

CobraKai65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Ha. At least youre in the more current side of AC.

The_Hooligan64d ago

Last one i played was origin. I am also behind on AC games.

anast64d ago

@Cobra

The older ones are kind of a chore. I did enjoy Syndicate and Unity, though.

@Hoologan

I had a good time with Origins for the most part.

anast65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

If they are all Gold versions, it's definitely worth it.

Chocoburger65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Waste of money, after the Desmond story arch, but even worse is that its a waste of time. The franchise is just spinning its wheels going nowhere. The further you progress through the series, the more 'corporate' it begins to feel, until its nothing but an empty husk, begging for you to spend money on its micro-trash-action store. There are loading screens in Origins informing you that if you spend money on "fun costumes" you'll feel better! Despicable.

Save your time for something better. Modern day Ubisoft is garbage.

MeatyUrologist64d ago

To each their own I guess? I really enjoyed them up until odyssey and valhalla was decent. I still really enjoy exploring the massive detailed worlds and the characters, stories, gear, and combat.

I have never once been swayed by a loading screen trying to get me to buy DLC as these games have 10x more content than you would ever see anyway. I do agree the series seems to be going the wrong direction at the moment, but would still highly recommend origins, odyssey, and to a lesser extent, valhalla if you enjoy adventure and exploration games.

gold_drake64d ago

not every AC game is worth playing tho ha.

i feel like it stopped being good after 3. and 3 was even a stretch.

1 and 2 tho? amazing.

Modern Games Are Getting Too Long

While there’s a lot to love about modern video games, there is one trend — particularly in the AAA space — that tends to grate: their length.

Games are coming out with too much fluff and side activities that are horribly dull. That's my main issue with all these open world games. Open world should be about exploration, discovery and wonder, not have some stupid 10s or 100s of boring activities spread throughout.

IAMRealHooman176d ago

100% agree
All these ubisoft titles, Farcry, AC, Ghost recon, boast huge maps, but with the same, 3 missions or the same base to clear 100s of times. Hour 1 of any of those titles is the same as hour 100, there big for the sake of being big, with the illusion of player freedom, where we really want depth and player expression.

Ninver175d ago

Give me a solid 15-20 hour engaging single player driven IP any day. Life's too short you dig.

isarai176d ago

I stopped buying overfluffed games like a decade ago. Cant stand games with the Ubisoft mindset of just filling maps with uselss collectibles and fodder. Make it mean something. Ill gladly take 1/4 size of the map and 1/10th the "content" if it all meant more, were more unique and greater affect on your progression.

Abnor_Mal176d ago (Edited 176d ago )

Well people complained like the world was ending when a few games were six to ten hours of gameplay. Developers listened and started making longer games full of repetitive gameplay, time wasting fetch quest and other forms of bloat. In doing so they were able to justify the high cost of a game being sold to the customers at seventy dollars or more.

H9176d ago

Filler, it's like a 80 episodes show where only the first and last episodes actually matter

Inverno176d ago

It's been a problem with pretty much every modern AAA game all through last gen and this gen. God forbid you point it out tho because all these big games are masterpieces and people lose their minds if you criticize them. Death Stranding is a fetch quest fest, but people will die defending it cause it's a "masterpiece".
