Jo he loved Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. So much so that if I had been given more time with him during the calendar year, I would have done so a serious race for my Game Of 2020. But boy, at the same time, I haven’t been happy with the support the game has had since the release.
The game was released, and continues to appear months later, a series of groundbreaking messages and sometimes completely game breaker errors. One of them stuck me for over a week when a character essential to a main mission in the story refused to appear at his designated point in Ravensthorpe, another for a few days when a mission that was supposed to i had to trigger a new dialogue after leaving a boy my horse never got there.
These are two that I suffered; The Washington Post highlighted another last week this gave serious headaches to many others.
To be clear, the problem here is not that the game crashes. Like some other annoying parts of Valhalla—Low quality sound effects in some areas and cut scenes where the character’s lips don’t move – there are concessions for being a great AAA game was released amid a global pandemic.
But in addition, there is a point where we have to acknowledge that this game was released in November and that it is almost April, and many of these major bugs are still there, trapping and frustrating players months later. . What a shit!

And while the November issues are still there, new ones are piling up. The latest round of free seasonal game content, based around the Ostara festivities, a number of aspects have been removed after starting to cause accidents.
This solution involved removing Ravensthorpe’s Ostara decorations and their new missions will not be able to be completed while Ubisoft is working on a solution.
I am trying to get you excited about the first proper update of the game, which will move the adventures of Eivor to Ireland, but when the game still has so many persistent issues, what’s to say that an expansion won’t just add more to the stack?
