This whole game is a disaster, but it's carried for now by hype and fan people.. i can't understand why this is OK and not a word from Ubisoft about what or how or anything.
Who cares atm for the planned DLC, i got the season pass.. but i honestly don't care if they don't patch a TON of things i won't even go into.. but many of us know this game is unfinished and plain bad !

And yeah the AI is a JOKE.. i made several post MONTHS ago asking to *GET THE COMBAT AI RIGHT* .. but noooooo and here we are with an AI that's even more stupid then Origins and Odyssey ever was.

If fact this game is so much worse then the previous 2 AC's.. i can't understand how they did it.. it's like it has been play tested by 12 year olds who say *whoaaa mannn this is grreeeaaattt* .

Ubisoft, yep that's good enough.. ship it !

@sinfuldantheman The world is dead, it's empty and has no soul.. compared to Origins and even Odyssey.. even the towns are static and they remind me of Skyrim boring static NPC's.

Empty lands and just not enough effort to create a immersive world has made me quit the game at 28%.. i don't regret buying the game, they can have the money for the effort and probably hard work , but it's just not good enough to keep me from feeling the 9th centure Viking vibe, whatever.
Maybe ill replay Origins or Odyssey next year (2nd and 3rd time), but Valhalla is a huge dissapointment and i don't care for it anymore.

@gravelmead
I turned off the volume in Norway, i could not take anymore of this sound.. no fine tune way to turn it off either.
I really don't understand nobody noticed how anoying the snow footstep sound is.

Am i just getting old or are people just getting weird (no disrespect, everyone has right to opinion but c'mon), what difference does it make 30 sec of blood or 5 min??.. are you gonna watch and *enjoy* some blood on a piece of dirt for 5 minutes?.. gods above this is just so strange to me.
It's maybe like *the trees are waving to fast for me* can we have a slider so that we can adjust and they don't *wave* so fast when the wind blows ??

40 hours and 26% in the game and story and i am not feeling it, the game world looks really good as we grown accustomed to but sorry to say it feels soulles and EMPTY.
I am playing Civilization V (been a while) and i'm having more fun then playing Valhalla.. was it to much hype ? from myself included.

I don't feel it, the settlement is nice but it's quiet, there is nothing going on or people in it.. the towns feel static and the countryside for example Sciropscire and Glowecestrescire (West of the settlement) are EMPTY, there are more cow and sheep then people.
It really doesn't hurt to put some sheep herders or maybe even some horse/wagon trading carts in, you have these great STONE roads and they are not being used.
Even the farms people are just standing still, did you forgot Ubisoft??.. why does AC Origins feel much more dynamic and a far better realistic world with people having stuff to do etc.

This is my main disappointment with AC VAlhalla, the greatest part of the lands are just empty.. where are the people ??? there isn't any walking on the roads, where are the traders, hunters maybe(?), soldier patrols.

Enjoyed the story but it doesn't give me the vibe like there was in Origins and even Odyssey, i am collecting Opals getting fast travel points and just running around in huge chunks of empty lands.

Settlement, Petra gimme a kiss, cling clang lets feast, and zZzZZZzZz sleep in a bed (doesn't do anything (how about a full health and 1 points of HEAL(?).
Settlement could do with trading (trading house), several towns (friendly) can be traded with.. real horse and wagon carts will walk from settlement to selected town.
Hired Jomsvikings should get injuries when downed or after fights, and require several days to heal.. so we need to switch (we can recruit a 100!).

Just some suggestions c'mon Ubisoft.. be creative !

Yup also 4 day crashes in a row.. started a new game for it and new Nvidia drivers Geforce 511.79 - didn't help.

Every 30-45 min CTD.

Agree, i was 40 hours and 28% in the game and i simply quit.. this game is an abomination.

If there is no patch before end of this year with, well.. a TON of stuff that needs improvement (empty lands emty lands empty lands where are the people Ubisoft??!!) and sooo much more, i will uninstall and never buy anything Ubisoft again.

I payed so much money for a game that is just bad, unfinished and plain boring.

400 hours in Odyssey were so much worth the money i spend on store stuff and all DLC.. this game nahhh.

Maybe Ubisoft should hire GAMERS again and not career millenials who have played 50 hours of fortnite.

There is a strange WOKE wind blowing trough the US and Canada, i mean it's okay to make a movie *cuties* with children ( !! just wrong FBI open up !! ) dancing like they do.. and some body parts in a video game is censored / left out.
And yeah we got decapitation and internal perforations in Valhalla, and thats all okay? please grow up Ubisoft and stop this childish nonsense.

Oh man i can't wait for CYBRPNK2077 and visit the *red light* district, pathetic right.. but just because we can makes it AWESOME !!

The world of AC (Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla-you are the best in this UBISOFT) is really great and well made, but from the 25 or so hours now i can't help to see the lands are empty.
For example Origins had such a vibrant landscape/waters, fishing boats, random birds, crocodiles, hippo's, deer, leopards.. CAMEL TRADERS, PATROLS, people wandering.

England is EMPTY, farmers are standing still in the fields, abandoned houses, very RARELY i see 3 random soldiers just walking, no fisherman on the rivers, no hunters or traders in the lands, people walking the roads.
Gorgeous lands but where are the PEOPLE ?? only in towns.. and even there it can't compare with Origins.. people were actually doing something.

Sorry Ubisoft, valhalla is just more of the same.

Origins 8/10
Odyssey 7/10
Valhalla 7/10

@bielik01 Ahh i see thanks.. BUT why so hidden.

Can we have an option to directly equip the full armor SET (if you have all pieces), just like we have in Odyssey.

Would be great thanks.

EDIT

Why is this feature so complicated, im a mouse keyboard guy - bind to right mouse button ? of Shift-mouse or space whatever - in Odyyssey it was perfect.
Pressing V then using space is pretty clumsy, no offence.

Hovering an armor piece i got MOUSE click --- left click = EQUIP - middle click = RUNES -- right click should be there = EQUIP SET

Yup also 4 day crashes in a row.. started a new game for it and new Nvidia drivers Geforce 511.79 - didn't help.

Every 30-45 min CTD.

@brucehillracing They are stupid and a annoying waste of time, and extremely.. ANNOYING - did i say that allready?

Just REMOVE this from the game please, it's annoying and well annoying.
How about some sneaky snakes, yes snakes again, or traps, or poisoned fungus or whatever.. just not these rats.

Never finished the game yet since i own it as of release, but these rats made me leave Frankia (first of all i had a CTD and my game progress is at 78%) but i will never set foot there again.
We can't ignore rats.. you HAVE to swing that sword/Axe or they will slow you down and kill you.. what a ridiculous thing to add, seriously!

@vlerk2020 Bug still present and have a blurry vision and look somewhat drunk after loading game, and CTD after 10-15 minutes !!

This is getting frustrating Ubisoft.

@vlerk2020 Okay i played Valhalla now for 2 hour - no crash - but i played in England so not the new Ireland or Paris zones.

@zoz72 Can confirm crashing with Valhalla since Paris patch, and i also crash with Odyssey (got 550+ Hours in that game) and i never crashed with Odyssey before.

Weird stuff going on.

Guess ill play some Bayek adventures then ..

Hello, i have over 550 hours in Odyssey..i am on my 4th run (or 3th dont know) and i keep crashing from the game.
Have send crash reports.. and have checked game files integrity.

Don't understand what's going on.

Have updated drivers and all that.

@ubi-ginge Here i made a video ..
