Assassin's Creed: Valhalla

Yep we have to wait for a patch for this, but i highly doubt we get it soon, its probably out of stock everywhere.

 

still didn't move to Valhalla, just marked it on my list.

story - missions - characters, how is it compare to the last game ? worth the trouble ? i liked Odyssey but i disliked Origin if that helps.

 

Ha! good one mate

 

It does not compare to any AC games imo .. more like god of witcher 3.2 lol

 

If u liked odyssey and didnt like origins, then valhalla is the game for u.
But wait a bit if i were u some bugs are really super frustrating and even sometimes gamebreaking.

 

I'd buy this right now tbh. Play it for a week (haven't discovered any bugs myself), then come back to it after Cyberpunk becomes boring - iike in 2 months

 

I liked Odyssey a lot and disliked Origins a lot.
I like this a lot, but not as much as Odyssey.

I’m near the end of the game, but cannot progress the story because of a bug.

 

I can see why people make the references about this game to witcher, but it is an AC game, just like black flag was, just with vikings instead. Gameplay is fun, story is ok, but the game doesn't hold a candle to witcher imo. Then again, witcher 3 is GOAT imo.

 

No of course it doesnt hold a candle to the witcher 3 im just saying it has similarities

 

There are deffo some similarities. But im a sucker for how gritty witcher is... where the world is just miserable... feel right at home xD

 

Well just played today and I am getting the crosshair when standing with the bow so I'm guessing they fixed this in a patch? Purely to mess with my head obviously!

 

There were a few bugs for me, which were solved with reload. Slightly annoying, but definitely not game breaking. Game looks good and the story is fine. But the gameplay is kinda boring after a while, since the combat is just too easy. No possibility of dying at all, especially due to huge windows for dodging/parry and low attack frequency of enemies.

I'm halfway through, but I'll likely shelf this for a couple of months, to finish it later. Maybe they'll improve on some of the issues by then.

 

Great game but really wish nvidia would give us a better driver and nvidia are getting tranced by AMD in this game by a fair margin.

 

The way the skill tree has been laid out is so annoying and tedious.

 

I still find 457.30 very unstable with this game. Sometimes after a crash, the game will keep freezing on launch until I delete the game config, and then re-apply all my settings again (4k). Then it's fine for an hour maybe. I thought it was my OC but it happens with it off, and other games on Ubisoft connect like Watchdogs Legion are fine.

 

There's been several reports about the game crashing after the patch, seeing how not all save issues were addressed by the update either I wonder if a new game would be more stable but redoing a 40+ hour playthrough or more yeah not very fun to try if that's going to be more stable.

Game gets progressively more unstable after a few hours from my own testing this weekend but three - four hours isn't too bad but it will eventually crash usually during loading after passing a few hours of in-game time as a single session potentially some leakage issue but not really sure what it's caused by.

 

For me after the patch i didnt had a single crash again but they reduced textures allot same as draw distance.

 

no they aren't.

 

Well a £700 6800xt is matching £1600 rtx 3090 at 4k and beating it a lower resolutions? That's what I call a trancing. Look at the benchmarks.

 

Actually thats the same for nearly every game, just because somethings cheaper does not mean it is inferior

Ask NVIDIA why their crap is priced so high?

AMD win just like the good old days
