where the hell are the 1-h swords? I know Vikings are known for their axes but they weren't relegated to them... a clan leader like Elvor would have had access to a sword, hell after a raid there are plenty laying around.

Remember back when playing Assassin's Creed you played as an Assassin who followed a creed?
Back when the goal was experiencing the story and not leveling up?
When hunting was an event and not a chore?
When your gear was just gear and didn't have to be leveled?
When the game didn't bear the name Assassin's Creed just because the main character possesses a wrist blade?
When the "hidden ones" weren't ancillary characters?
It seems as if AC is moving farther from the assassin part and more towards the "just kill everyone in your way" bland RPG type game.

One other thing.... IDK if the dev's are aware of this but Vikings were able to ride their horse and swing their weapon at the same time. They didn't have to just kick while riding

When Tarben explains his past life he says "i laid my sword in the grass"... so even our baker gets to use a sword.
