Currently playing AC: Valhalla. Not huge AC fan, but with their move toward being more RPG'ish, and the reviews, I thought I would give it a go.
It's been pretty good so far. I've only ever played AC Black Flag before. I like pirates. :)
So...my 2 day thoughts (not review) about 25 hours in.
- I want more story, but I am primarily a story guy, so take that for what it's worth.
- Eivore isn't much of an assassin, and yes I know this is a complaint from die hard AC fans, but this is more hack slashy than stealthy. I wish they had married the two better. More AC like in big towns, more hack slashy out in the open.
- I like the settlement building element, even if it is very elementary.
I'm enjoying it thus far. Just enough variety to not seem repetitive. I'll see how it matures as I go on.
