Assassin s Creed Valhalla is the Assassin s Creed game I did not know he needed

The world of Assassin s Creed Valhalla is decorated with a brightly vibrating color palette in autumn and winter colors. The AC games covered the human history of the Italian Renaissance to the Peloponne War, with many things between the two, and now Ubisoft tackles the dark age with a Viking protagonist. Now that I put their hands on Assassin s Creed Valhalla, I can say that it is my most popular title in the series before it exit.

My story with Assassin s Creed goes back to the trilogy of EZIO games that captivated so many of us. Assassin s Creed Valhalla I captivates in an equal measure, although Odyssey s changes are not as drastic as the changes made between the original title and the first sequence, or the jump of union in origins. Assassin s Creed Origins has reworked the franchise formula started with Assassin s Creed 2 while maintaining fundamental elements such as stealth and exploration, and although Odyssey is a great improvement compared to what isisoft started with origins , Valhalla has what it takes to be what ASSassin s Creed IV: Black Flag was at the original formula.

The crackling of the fire is accompanied by the cold colors of the boreal aurora in the frozen tundra of the open European open world, designed with love by Ubisoft for the title Assassin s Creed based on Viking. The reds, the brown and the yellow foliage play on the ice water and the snowy peaks just as brilliantly in this assassin s Creed Valhalla gameplay than at the beginning of the winter of Vancouver.

This particular demo is known as the Leicestershire demo and includes a specific game of the game that includes many global events, collectible artifacts and beautiful views to discover. Although the beginner experience in Valhalla differs from this demo, the gameplay started with an introduction to colonies that can be built and manufactured at your liking, with areas where you can place monuments and buildings that will offer their own advantages. . For example, a blacksmith can improve Eivor s equipment. On the other hand, a tattoo show expands the potential for customizing the Viking protagonist.

Within the Assassin s Creeped Valhalla colony, you can customize your boat, your horse and a Viking soldier who will accompany you on the battlefield. The Drakkar is mainly used for the crossing, while the Allied soldiers will put on your personalized equipment into raids that involve storm the walls of the castle and ransacing a hostile territory. The upgrade of your colony is one of the many excuses to attack enemy towns and villages in Assassin s Creed Valhalla, while some raids are part of the Kingmaker saga. The Kingmaker s saga is similar to the political conquest that is in a good position in Assassin s Creed Odyssey, and the fans of the last title of Assassin s Creed will find several things to appreciate in this new generation.

The raids can be accomplished by various methods, my favorite being to storm the door with a ram. The fans of Assassin s Creed Valhala will also be able to climb on the scales put in place by other Vikings to climb the walls of a fortress during a raid, or they will be able to sneak in the classical way of Assassin s Creed to allow to their friends to pass the main door more easily. This variant of the gameplay allows you to change the way you make a raid every time you do so that no raid is identical unless you are not actively trying the same strategy. Raid is not just an important activity in Assassin s Creed Valhalla, but it will also unlock new activities to be done like fishing because the RAID will help you recruit a fisherman in your colony. This insistence on a port of attachment reminds me of the garrisons in World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor, but I already feel that Ubisoft knows what he does with the colonies where Blizzard had no idea of ​​the garrisons.

Global events are the new secondary quests and they are managed similarly, but more transparent. In the Leicestershire demo, there are nearly a dozen global events with various activities. One involved helping a woman hidden to collect snake eggs into a grip infested with vipers, another had eivor helping two bitiots to fire a house after recovering something important from the inside, and L Global event the most ridiculous deliciously had Eivor stumbling on magic mushrooms and slowly see seals. Sneaked in interdimensional portals. This method of combating secondary quests made them more interesting to do, and Ubisoft really passed the global events in the Leicestershire demo.

The charism of Assassin s Creed Valhalla improves by participating in rap battles that strongly depend on timing, speed and rhymes. Before seeing it in action, I saw this as a stupid addition to a very serious episode of Assassin s Creed. After having lived these first-hand rap battles, I can confirm that they play well. My biggest problem with these is that I do not see anyone fail more than once. Similar to the facility encountered in these rap battles, there are stone puzzles erected to solve in the open world of Valhalla that I found extremely easy to solve. These puzzles give you an image while showing pieces of the image engraved in the menhirs nearby. Basically, you must stand at the appropriate angle to align the drawst stones to collect the parts of the symbol and create the image required by the puzzle. These are fun and engaging, and a great distraction compared to the main intrigue of Assassin s Creed Valhalla, but I felt that these puzzles were a bit easy.

Unlike easy puzzles and repeatable rap battles that I have conquered during my Assassin s Creed Valhalla Leicestershire demonstration game, the paper pursuit continues to challenge me all these years after the activity has been added to the Assassin s Creeped franchise . During my extensive Gameplay of Assassin s Creed Valhalla, I finished each part of the main campaign that I could, I discovered several artifacts and panoramas, and I finished the majority of global events included in the demo, But I have never captured any of the three prosecutions on paper. That I saw and I remain determined to capture them when the game will come out completely. The Sea Shanties are revented again at Assassin s Creed with Valhalla, but most of them are sung in the vast river system in Europe rather than in the ocean. Unlike Assassin s Creed IV: Black Flag, paper lawsuits are not there to unlock new barracks, but apparently, they unlocked new tattoo designs in Parkour to the evasive paper sheet.

In many ways, Assassin s Cree fans know what to expect from Assassin s Creed Valhalla, even if they move away from the series for a while. Further and the fusion are still important in the suspicious or restricted areas, there are still beautiful panoramas to discover and synchronize towers from which to perch, a hidden treasure always encourages the exploration, a rich tree of skills and Resources to grind. The fans of the animus will appreciate the extensive loading screen they will have to browse this time, which includes the aurora boreals that are in many areas of the game. Similar to Assassin s Creed Odyssey, Valhalla continues to offer locations. Interesting in the form of synchronization towers, encouraging you to climb something that you already feel obliged to climb.

The Leicestershire demo for Assassin s Creed Valhalla included several conversations, giving me (Eivor) the opportunity to choose where the plot had to lead, and a choice, in particular, had devastating consequences. Finally, there is an option to kill an important character or let him live, and let him live makes your experience in Europe more sunny and more rose than the alternative. If you choose to kill the character, the zeelots are sent to hunt Eivor and his Viking group. Choosing to spare their life makes zealots an optional content, but kill them makes them hurry, which radically changes the gameplay. I can not wait to see what other ways the gameplay will be influenced by my decisions during the complete exit of Assassin s Creed Valhalla.

Although my experience with Assassin s Creed Valhalla was mainly positive during the Leicestershire demo, I met several bugs that will probably be corrected at the time of the full exit of the game. One of the bugs was a simple interface box. User who did not disappear after a defined period of time, hindering my gameplay from the slightest way. Many bugs seemed to be situational for me, finding something in a traditional way rather than using the Odin viewfinder. Optimized combat and weapon systems in Assassin s Creed Odyssey were still optimized by Valhalla, however, I noticed a problem with Eivor s cloak that remains rigid as a board while exploring the European landscape. The magnificently illuminated European landscape of Dark Aged reminded me about Horizon: the best areas of Zero Dawn, and I look forward to discovering more. The Leicestershire demo included a fraction of Valhalla s final card watching an zoomed map, but the game part that was included was a fun Assassin s Creed. The campaign seems politically similar to Odyssey, and I am delighted to know more about my European heritage by plunging into a simulated version of the world that my ancestors called at home.
