All three of them, Valhalla, Oddysey, and Origins are works of art. My favorite overall after playing them all is Odyssey. It had the most immersive rpg system. It also had the best camera filters for awesome in game pictures. The other games' photo systems fell flat compared to Odyssey's. I think Valhalla might have been a step up in terms of puzzles. Not sure whuch one had the most immersive puzzle stories. AC has still yet to deliver on a super immersive puzzle system. I guess finding the keys was fun in Valhalla. Oddysey had the best world. Critisism has its place but to give proper credit they're all beautiful and fun games.

"Homefront: The Revolution" game is really good game but very hated on by reviewers. Same goes for "Metal Gear Survive". Edit: Every popular review about "Metal Gear Survive" is full of lies, you can't trust them. A lot of the reviews complained about the survival mechanics, scavenging for food and water, and also being limited on oxygen in the dust (Angry Joe complains about his stamina going down too quickly when his character is both really hungry and thirsty, not taking the time to hunt for food and water). Turns out food and water is plentiful later on. Not much you can do about the oxygen, you can only get a better O2 mask. (Most reviewers didn't even get to africa). A lot of people didn't like the game before even trying it, because it has "zombies" in it. However players must not be real fans of the MGS series if they think this is the first time Metal Gear has had any enemies with zombie like behavior. MGSV TPP had wandering mother base soldiers, and the Skulls. Theres also Vamp, and many others with similar behavior in past games. There has always been zombie like enemies, they just were not called zombies, just like in Metal Gear Survive they are wanderers. Plus, I don't remember zombies having hive mind, or group think.The story was bad to reviewers, however most reviewers never beat the game. Most definitely did not look at the archives to listen to the tapes in the game either ( like most did not do in TPP either ). This game actually has a good story that makes sense, although is also more complicated than one would think. The story is not just a side tale, its directly part of the series, even if its only a small part. I mean we need some explanation at least of where wormhole technology came from, how it was discovered, and so on for TPP. Metal Gear Survive gives us that explanation. Could the story have been better, longer, and portrayed in a better manner? Definitely, but what would you expect from a $40 game (now obtainable for less than $10 used). People found the gameplay boring. I would say early gameplay is annoying, using the spear and fences and just poking. However the game gets far better over time, as one would expect from a survival game. Killing wanderers gets harder, and ways of doing it get better with the different classes, class skills, and weaponry, not to mention traps, turrets, ect. Jumping into multiplayer is fun as you get larger hordes, more variety, and different elemental types, which you wont see in single player after beating the game.

The "God stuff" was cut from the main game at fan request. Basically what happened was people were being upset about the fantasy elements in their sci-fi series (Origins and Odyssey had these first) so Ubisoft introduced this solution for players to be able to skip the fantasy portions by making them optional. Now, given that it's mandatory to play the Asgard bits to understand the ending of the game it's safe to say they shot themselves in the foot and that they were waaaaay into the development of the game. The decision was made late and the devs weren't able to rewrite the the story to cut the fantasy stuff altogether - or actually make it optional.

Connor is still (deliberately) an ass, the mechanics are incredibly frustrating with their inconsistency, but it remains the most epic of the series for me and the most innovative. I think the reason I clocked in so many hours on PC was it was the closest I was going to get to a port of RDR and the sandbox is great to just run around, hunt and slaughter redcoats (or watch cougars doing it).

I believe many players are missing much of the "meta" stuff that ties them all together. Going back to the start, Adam and Eve themselves were hybrid human/ISU. This means that some ISU genetic exist in varying degrees across all humanity. Those with cetain combinations have varying abilities. I.e. the vision/bird tie-ins, that cause them to pervieve things and leads them toward the assassins or the templars. These being genetic in nature also means that these individuals are oftem groomed to these philosophies through familial bonds. What the Norse ISU (and atleast one other) did was incorporate more of themSelves into this hybridization. Appearanace, traits, but most important to Valhalla, memories. BUT the person whom these attributes begin to express in [seers] deal with them in unique ways. Some go mad (Tyr/Sigurd), some integrate fully (Basim/Loki) and some struggle and eventually come to a partnership (Eivor/Havi). I believe this is also some cross breeding between the existing ISU genetics present in human lines intermixing with the newer Norse lines. Basim being probably the best example (and also explain why he also got to the middle east). So lets suppose that Basim had more hybrid genes AND the norse genes which is why Basim integrated fully with Loki. This also explains why Basim can skip around in the Animus, because his norse ISU genes add capabilities (or genetic memory of how to use the anumus in this way). I would say that as a gamer when you run into something that doesn't initially make sense, instead of assuming it's a shortcut/retcon by the game devs. Try to look deeper. ❤

I don't think any game in this franchise has actually been a bad game. Some just stand out and are much more unique than others, others had either more development time or just in general better skill at being able to put together and polish the engine and gameplay and mission design, and with how many entries in the franchise there have been and how long they've been making them some just have to be at the bottom. I think otherwise there is enough variety at this point that even fans of the franchise are going to have certain developer teams or eras/styles of AC games that they prefer. And otherwise there are just going to be some general gamers that enjoy a fraction of these titles and aren't a fan of the others. For me, the thing that always appealed to me the most about these games was being able to play around in a historical sandbox. Sure I still liked the general plot and world that the game was building, however I'm one of those who never cared a single bit about anything happening in the present-day storyline or the character of Desmond. If it wasn't taking place in the historical portion of the game I just didn't care. And that comes from me just generally having an interest in lots of historical eras. However this also has kind of made it so that the setting can sometimes determine whether or not that becomes one of my favorite games in the franchise to begin with. I go back and forth between whether or not I like black flag or origins the best. And I think I pick origins not even necessarily because I think it's definitively a better constructed game, but just because it was so much more enticing for me to explore that game world because of an absolute love and fascination with ancient Egypt that dates back to my childhood. Otherwise I feel like I enjoy something like Assassin's Creed 3 more than many other people because I also have a high interest and attachment to the revolutionary War. That's one of my favorite eras in American history to study. Stuff like unity and syndicate, I can realize that they are mostly generally well made games, although unity still has technical issues to this day. And they feel more like traditional Assassin's Creed titles, however I just didn't really have a huge interest in the French revolution or industrial London. So those became the first two games that I never finished in the franchise and again a big part of it is the setting, but the other part is that that was about when Ubisoft was really starting to just create these overly bloated game worlds that had just a ton of icons everywhere and all of this side content where it became daunting to really know what was worth doing and what you were supposed to be doing, and what was just pointless filler and busy work. I feel like origins actually cleaned that up a little bit since it was taking such heavy inspiration from The Witcher 3, I felt compelled to do most of the things that I ran across in every area And then Odyssey did the too much on the map thing again lol It's taking me a while to finally get into Odyssey, I had to do a lot of initial grinding before that game felt like it really opened up and became fun to explore and go on adventures. And even then I've got to be 50 odd hours into that game at this point and still don't quite know how to progress the main story. Valhalla even though I hadn't completed Odyssey, was catching my eye because I needed something to show off my new series X, and because I generally am more interested in something like the Vikings over the ancient Greeks. So I hopped into Valhalla as well and played a bit through it and had some fun and can note which things I think it does better than Odyssey in which things I think it does worse. And although it kind of cleans up the map compared to Odyssey I still feel like it has this issue of just being too big with too much stuff for its own good. But my biggest issue with Valhalla is I just don't really care about any of the characters. Odyssey also has too much going on however there's a feeling of charm and whimsy and playful sarcasm that makes it entertaining, especially if you pick Kassandra Valhalla is just kind of missing that. So it sits as one of those games installed on my hard drive that I only ever made it a fraction of the way through, however one day I'm going to go back and give it a shake. Because it's gorgeous, even if I don't think all of the farmlands in England are all that exciting to explore, but it is mechanically sound. If you're looking for a Viking game, it is probably one of the best ones if not the best one depending on what you're looking for So even though it lost my interest, even though Odyssey lost my interest and syndicate and unity lost my interest... I still can't look at them and say that they did that because of they're bad games. It's just the combination of whether or not it's the right time and whether I'm the right person to really love that particular setting and concept This is a huge franchise, and at this point I would bet it's incredibly rare to find anyone who actually really loves every single entry And I'm not going to lie, once mirage goes on a decent sale I really want to try that one out, because once again just the setting interests me more. Plus if it's not as big or as long as these other ones I might have a chance to actually beat it l😅

I thought Mirage was worst than this game. It was too short, too little to do and too boring. The climbing mechanic was bad, abilities weren't that great and I completed it in about a week, collected everything and completed the quest. Was not worth the asking price.

Valhalla and Odyssey were great opportunities to break away from Assassins Creed. Ubisoft could've made whole games with ancient cultural touchstones. And let's face it, warrior cultures wouldn't have anything to do with honorless assassins, or sci-fi scenes.

i have to say that i liked it. if you take your time (as others have said) it really is a beautiful world and a good game. If you are rushing through it, then yes it becomes very repetitive.

Take your pace with this game because its long but had good elements and activities and really liked the detail they put into developing Ravensthorpe.

I played Origins and loved it. I played Odyssey and hated it. Everyone said that Valhalla was terrible, so I didn't even buy it. But it was on discount last month, so I tried it. It's surprisingly good! To be fair, I haven't finished it and I'm just 30 hours in (Lunden arc), but the game is very solid so far. I like the combat, I like the world and the characters seem fine. Sure, the arc structure of the game means that pacing can suffer, but the actual gameplay loop is fun! The stealth also seems to be mostly fixed, because I haven't encountered any detection bugs that people were complaining about. And most importantly, Valhalla has this Assassin's Creed feel to it. When I go into cities, I walk around with a cloak and armed with just a dagger. It's kinda immersive.

They think that makes an assassins creed that is the lack of all those rpg elements in favor of more realistic action, then ins the main character identity they didn’t have the guts of keeping Eibor female or male, many female were raised as boys so you telling me they couldn’t go that route. Then the whole immersion braking hit numbers and health bars. They need to make a simpler game, keep going with the original assassin formula and create just more cinematic side quest that teach you new abilities instead of having you unlock them with experience.

This is a great game and one of the best "viking" themed. I don't know what some people are thinking when they say it's bad. It's a beautiful game I like going around in the countryside on my horse and it's never boring and using the ship is beautiful too. The story is good the characters are good the landscapes are beautiful the lore is quite historically accurate (how it can be for a game). What else do they want? And the same people idolize games like The Wither 3 which is nothing special in my opinion. And I think with these games (Odyssey and Valhalla) Ubisoft has managed to find a great equilibrium between the story and the open world which is something nobody else has done so well. By the way Eivor is a unisex name. about female Eivor voice there is a reason why she talks like that because she was bitten by a wolf in her neck when she was a child (she has a big scar too) which damaged her vocal chords the rasp is present in the male voice too but it's less noticeable. I didn't find anything strange in her voice. and the music is outstanding. by the way (and then I shut up lol) this is a game you can't rush you have to enjoy the world and the story so any reasoning about how much time it takes to do something is nonsensical.

It was still waaaay too long. Prob completed 80% of the content & those River Raids are procedurally generated Loot, so can drag on for hours.

When the Isu reincarnated, it was basically their consciousness inside a human body alongside the humans' own consciousness. Odin is trying to manipulate Eivor into letting him take over, and his ultimate goal is to just go back to the life he had before the Isu catastrophy as the "high one." Hence why he wants to be put into a simulation of his portion of the previous Isu world. (Which only Freya does successfully) which honestly aligns pretty well with the real world mythology surrounding Odin. When Basim is confronting them for things that happened to Loki, its actually Loki talking through Basims lips, with Basims original human consciousness being locked away somewhere inside. Exactly like Eivor locks away Odin when he finally rejects him. I haven't played Mirage, so idk if they've changed any of that, but it was pretty clear within the story of Valhalla.

Man, i swear this game is the biggest victim to mindless hate in the internet.

And ofc you just can't compare Rdr2 to most games because of how groundbreaking it is. When i finally let go of this stupid thought process that everything i played had to be the most flawless crafted thing of beauty ever i finally could get back to gaming and i would've missed so many amazing games if i kept that stupid mindset, guys, Valhalla is easily one of the most fun games i've ever played and does it have flaws? A whole lot of them! Is the game fun, beautiful and just overall an arguable 8/10? Damn well it is. Don't be a mindless hater following stupid internet circlejerks and take your time to playing things! according to the internet Valhalla is one of the worst tortures ever made and The Witcher 3 is the best piece of media ever crafted in humankind history or Elden Ring being the best game of all galaxies or The Ezio trilogy being the only good thing the Ac Franchise ever pooped but man i'd be lying if i said i couldn't get past 30 hours of The Witcher 3 after multiple attempts without forcing myself to play it because "It's perfect, I NEED TO ENJOY IT" or Quitting on Elden Ring after 70 or so hours because i was simply not having fun anymore and more recently dragging my way through the Ezio trilogy (Which to be fair, although dated and massively overrated still has it's moments) while i have still ongoing 130 hours on Valhalla, loads of stuff to do (Had some pauses ofc) and rn just can't wait to go home to go play it and see what waits for me today. Be your own man, stop trying to please your imaginary internet daddies who demands for your opinion to match their favorite creators "Oh no, i'm not allowed to enjoy to this game because fucking ASMONGOLD told me it sucks, i'm fuckin stupid if i like it now i guess". That less judgmental mindset does not apply only to Valhalla, everyone and their mothers have a game that is universally hated but they love so much be it for emotional value, nostalgia or just vibing a lot with it and if you read that rant till here i really wanna know yours.

As an AC title, yeah maybe it misses the mark...but on its own, it was a great idea that was poorly executed. Way too many people involved in the decision making, too many people making contributions to the game, and Ubisoft once again listened to the wrong part of their so-called fanbase. They're one of many companies who are afraid to tell someone "Yeah no we are not doing that, it's a terrible idea" They could've turned this game into something great but destroyed it by trying to jam it into the AC mold. Seems like they allowed criticism to directly impact their own decision making in the development process and the result was underwhelming asf.

I loved AC Valhalla! It had possibly the best story of the new trilogy, and i'm primarily a story player. Odyssey had the best combat though, and Origins had the best setting.

It made money because Ubisoft design their games to waste your time so you end up buying them, the same thing Activision does with COD but people are too brain dead to stop buying them.

It's more of an Assassin's Creed game than Odyssey was.

How? Odyssey DLC single handedly has more info about the Assassins than Valhalla did Base game and DLC combined . The only relevancy Valhalla has to the "Assassins creed" is that they showed how the "modern" templar came to be unless you're referring to gameplay then i agree Valhalla is more "AC" @@eatmyshamrock

As much as I enjoyed AC Valhalla it wasn't a good “Assassin's Creed” game.

I agree with most of your ideas and critizisms. I enjoyed a lot about Valhalla. It is not at all a bad game as such. I do not think it is too long at all. I had great fun roaming the world, and I actually loved the incremental upgrade mechanic. It felt natural to me, and you had to make strategic decisions while choosing your upgrade path. I often went to areas that required a higher skill level than I had, because the game is too easy as it is. - My main criticism is that this should have been developed as a separate IP, and not as an Assassin's Creed game. Viking gameplay does not connect well with the Assassin's Creed way of doing things. It works against it, actually. - I also missed the beautiful ancient city environments in this game, but they just did not exist in this area in this time period. - I did not like the supernatural/god nonsense in this game at all. I would have preferred a pure realistic approach to this historical setting. - I think the castle sieges were nonsensical. I could with ease conquer every castle on my own, by singlehandidly killing everyone inside, but was then in the next instance forced to do it all over again in a siege. This was a dumb mechanic. Not well-designed, and not thought through, by the devs.

it is too long. If you try to do EVERYTHING, side missions, secrets and such, u can be looking easy at 300 hours. With all DLCs, game mods, probably 400 or 500. That is just insane and, for completionists like me (i like to do everything in a game), its a nightmare. I myself just had to stop, is too much. Plus, the game is plagued with bad game decisions that hurt the game. - bloated content - extremely long and mostly empty maps. I get it, they tried to portrait England in the past, but its a game decision that hurts the game. Plus, points of interest are way too far apart from each other. - cryptic secrets and other annoyances in the world design - performance issues - such as constant crashes - animation problems (clunky combat, getting stuff in the enviromment) - sound mixing issues, muffled sounds, unimpactful weapon sounds etc. - kinda bland story that lacks.. "soul", in the lack of a better analogy, and other stuff i could stay here rambling about all day. - too many gameplay mechanics getting introduced, not well explained, many of those pointless and unconsequential. They could be removed from the game and you would not miss them one bit. That is the definition of bloat - repetitive all way around. Its just too much. This said, i dont think is a bad game at all, there are many things to be enjoyed (beautiful landscapes, nordic setting, cool weapons and gear, upgrade system is good, like you said, interesting characters, overall enjoyable game when it works well, and other stuff. I personally liked the raid missions, but also felt excessive and repetitive at some point. It feels like they used the good things from Odyssey, upped x20 everything, then scratched many good mechanics, introducing others are are worse. It feels like a disjointed mess that had good elements in between, but used in a disorganized, unfocused way.

of course its optional, but if is in the game, its there for a reason. right? If is just there to bloat and waste our time, or to be skipped, then its a bad sign. I liked the game overall but i felt over and over it was wasting my time - overall feeling with many sidequests etc - Plus, if u just skip stuff, you might be missing important stuff, you never know. The game would have benefited more with less stuff in game, like i said, being more focused in the main story with some side missions, being smaller in size and scope. I had the feeling Valhalla got a bit greedy or, at least, overambitious; devs at some point tried to do everything, all the same time, kept adding stuff that has no real meaning or purpose and lost focus (i mean, there is even a roguelite mode in game o.o)@@Ploskkky

Good video! 13:48 Basim went into the Grey when he was not so old. He only looks "old" because he was decaying, but his decaying was slowed down by the Yggdrasil device. His Isu DNA may have helped too. Basim was also the most broken sage, mentally, (out of the Yggdrasil method) with more similarities (physically and most importantly mentally) to Loki than the other sages had with their Isu counterparts. He empathised with Loki's memories, portrayed by Nehal, and when Basim had no purpose and felt lost in life, Loki's memories gave him purpose. Basim is still his own man though - he still did his duty as a master assassin, and explored "a new world". Most of this lore is from Mirage though.

I spent the time to go through all side quests and every single wealth or collective item i could get before i proceeded with the main quest within the current area i was in. After doing such allowed me to understand the story far better. Ofc you can't expect everyone to have that sort of dedication however the option to do so is there and choosing not to go through it is your choice. If you complain you don't get the story you have only yourself to point at.

I did the same thing until it became so boring I was unable to continue playing the game. Which was unbelievably fast, I got to that point faster than in Odyssey.

It's not the worst, but it's garbage compared to Origins or Odyssey.
