Are they really describing Valhalla as a 100-hour game? I spent that long on Origins, and Valhalla has way more to it.
But overall a shorter AC game sounds great. I miss the days when even going for 100% took 45 hours instead of triple digits.
I tried to see everything there was to see in Valhalla. I had to stop. There were just other games to play.
Thing is the story didn’t stay compelling and fell off. The level barriers also felt super weird in a way that didn’t feel good. If they can make ass creed in in a similar way to ghost of Tsushima where every quest even side quests felt amazing, then I bet they’d really bring assassin’s creed back to the front of gaming
Yeap. The quality of the quests were bad. Maybe good for a AssCreed game, but compared to modern counterparts in the genre, weak. Witcher 3 is the high bar for me.
I've been playing off and on for a month or two and feel like I've barely scratched the surface. I tend to get distracted though and just go off and fuck around, finding things.
That's the way to play. Trying to grind the game and do everything...it's a lot. Best to either just plow through the singleplayer main story if you want to move on or play a little at a time over the course of 10 years.
I was able to stay engaged with Origins and Oddesey, but this one isn't keepong my attention as much Idk why
Content overload imo.
I just played and finished valhalla for the first time and it took me ~70 hours to complete the main storyline. I didn't 100% the maps just every now and then I'd go exploring.
