    I agree with most people here, Valhalla was a downgrade compared to the previous titles. I still like the Origins best overall, because Odyssey has kinda dragged on with the story (although it was still fun). From my point of view, if Ubisoft want to remake AC into more of an RPG, then they should just lean into it completely. Make a sensible combat system, instead of essentially just tweaking what is now same 15 year old combat from original AC. They can then bind the gear and crafting into it.

    It can even be a giant soap opera kinda like ME, but it can't be full of just generic content. I would also appreciate it if they got rid of 90% of that repeatable and generic content. All the marker exploration are very similar and there is a lot of them so it becomes tedious over time. I'm fine having far smaller world, if it's content is actually sensible. Why not replace generic marker exploration with actual side quests? They don't even have to have a meaningful choice that would change the story, if the story is well written.

    FYI, next weeks title update includes data restructuring of the game: https://discussions.ubisoft.com/top...refreshStatus=noLoginData&utm_source=narrativ

    As a consequence, you'll have to re-download the game. Personally, I've uninstalled it when I read the news. The new version of the game will be 44GB smaller.

    Think my game size was around the same, don't mind the reduction of the game size tbh. And if it does bring performance improvement, then that's just a bonus.

    Shame they didn't do something similar to Odyssey.

    They did improve performance quite a bit in this patch... went from 65 to 72 fps in the benchmark at 4k ultra.

    Anyone playing on a 12900k found a work around that actually works? Disabled E-Cores still bluescreens. Don't have the legacy game mode option in my bios.

    Yeah I think they did. I assumed it was my upgrade but perhaps not.

    I don't think you can compare this and Unity, the last three "Assassin's Creed" games really aren't AC's, they're historical RPGs IMO, and they're fantastic for that! Personally I prefer Odyssey out of the 3 but many prefer Origins, most agree that Valhalla is the weakest release of the three. I'd imagine Origins and Odyssey are pretty cheap now so maybe check them out and see if you like them, the three are all fairly similar in how they play out :)
