Assassin's Creed: Valhalla (PC) Ubisoft Connect Clé Europe

The new title Valhalla in the series of Assassin's Creed takes the advancements of the series found in Odyssey and Origins and applies it to a whole new setting. It is till a Assassin's Creed game however it manages to leave behind some questionable things from the last two games, all the while presenting us with a much greater direction, a really dense map, engaging plot, and a breathtaking setting. As brutal as the period of Vikings is, there's something beautiful about this adventure. Every action is rewarded with some great moments of storytelling. And there's an amazing world here just waiting to be discovered. Overall, Ubisoft has created a very entertaining Vikings game.<br>

Incredible, immersive, and a continuation of the RPG-oriented approach AC's taken in recent years. Cool setting, too! Vikings :P

Maneuverability has kicked back and the character is stupidly stuck on whatever obstacles he encounters, as was the case in early ACs. The character is heavy is clumsy.<br>The gameplay is incredibly repetitive: being assigned a mission, having to roam & loot to acquire the mini XP to succeed in the mission without getting smashed in 1 hit, shattering with a boss in a scripted fight to the death in which arrows are trickle. It was certainly a bit the principle of the other ACs, but there, as the story is boring, it does not encourage us to move on.<br>The game crashes at least once per hour, if not more. The character gets stuck in the background very often, the only way out being to move quickly with the map. And then all the other erratic behaviors in the game.<br>If there hadn't been AC Odyssey before, I would have put 3 or 4 stars out of 5, but the fact of not having capitalized correctly on this basis (regressions at several levels) is not acceptable.

Le monde est très vaste, avec de nombreuses très bonnes idées. Cependant, à mon sens, le nombre d’ennemis manque de diversité. Un peu comme dans le dernier opus situé au Japon, le monde semble peu rempli et pas assez diversifié visuellement. Il n’est pas au niveau d’un Black Flag, mais cela reste malgré tout un bon opus.
