I almost always pick female if I have the option (the only exception being if the female character(s) are so embarrassingly depicted that I don't see them as representation). So yeah, if I play Valhalla I'll pick the female character.
Playing as her? I was never able to see the leaked footage in the OP of that thread in time. How was her character design, I wonder?There is 30 mins of leaked gameplay featuring her. The thread about the leaked footage is linked in the OP
Most likely male Eivor. I played Kassandra in ACO as she was clearly the vastly superior character out of the two, but my main reasoning is just to switch it up a bit and go with a male character this time around. Plus the opportunity for an epic Viking beard.
Having said that, if male Eivor turns out to feel really bland like Alexios did, then I might go with female Eivor anyway. Both look awesome design wise.
Yes, this for me as well.Eivor is a girls name where I'm from so it feels fitting to play as female

Yes. That both are canon... whatever that means.Have they said anything about if one is canon to the story, like they did with Kassandra in Odyssey ?
Found it! Thanks!Yeah
If you go on YT and search for "Assassin's Creed Valhalla leaked gameplay" and then filter the results by most recent someone will have uploaded it again in the last few hours
Filter the search to only show vids 30mins long to narrow it down more if that helps
I think they're dealing with alternative universes, given some of what was said in the game outside the animus, but idk.
I voted male but it could still change if female has a good showing in their marketing footage but yeah male is probably gonna be the majority.So after 233 votes:
Male - 47.6%
Female - 40.8%
If that's Era, then I feel like overall it's gonna be 75% or more of players picking male Eivor, considering I think two thirds of AC:O players picked Alexios
Good. That said, I kinda hope that the game changes depending on whether you pick a male or female Eivor. Like, maybe you have to deal with sexism or some such.I think we'll see more customisation of character this time around, so maybe they'll let you change hair/tattoos etc, which they didn't let you do in Odyssey
Actually, yeah, I just prefer the voice for Eivor from what little I've heard (of both the male and female version)I usually go with the female because of the voice. I think there was one game were it was just way better acted than the guy and it's just stuck with me.
I'm the type of person though that plays games by pressing randomise or leaving it default. Not a big deal to me.
I went with Kassandra in Odyssey but for this I am going male. I want my long beard!
Kassandra was an easy choice for me but I can go with either Eivor.
Terrible.
I too like dad jokes.

.Just like Sunset Overdrive and AC Odyssey, I'll just pick whomever is the consensus best voice actor.
Seeing her tower over dudes in the leaked gameplay was epic, I'm going to destroy so much male ego in this game.
I'm the same exact wayI'm a dude, and if given a choice, I like to opt for a male player character. I also tend to prefer how armor "fits" on male characters more-so than female ones.
It's a very loose preference, so not a big deal either way though.
