Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Post Launch & Season Pass Trailer (2 expansions, free seasonal content, Discovery Tour)
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Love the Discovery Tours but I wish they still included the codex as well. Discovery Tours come along way too late to give context to historical events and structures when you are playing the game at release.
I still don't understand how Ubisoft markets these games. There is the Season Pass, The Gold Edition, and of course the Ultimate Edition. I usually pick up the Gold Edition at the first sale, but is there a real difference between the game plus season's pass and the Gold edition?
I'll have to say I'm disappointed the DLC's are going to Ireland and Francia, was hoping they'd explore the northern regions of the world a bit more. Would've loved an Iceland DLC. But ah well, I'm still in. Looks like I'll be picking up the Gold Edition.
Lets hope down the line they give it a proper remake/update instead of a basic remaster (imo).
Seeing a proper next-gen version of Assassin's Creed 1, they has better quest design, better Assassin mechanics (seen in AC2 and later games), and a better structure would be amazing.
These games are already too long and repetitive. Cant image buying even more stuff. Currently playing Odyssey and while I like it so far I can already see myself dropping it because of own huge the map is and most of it is meaningless treasure or bandid camp anyway. But hey, maybe I stay hooked in the story and loop and want more. I just don't see it.
They are likely do for an engine revamp again anyway so I think 2022 is a pretty safe bet.
Yeah AC1 would need to be remade if anything.
Cool yule festival and beowulf, too bad we never got a christmas carol dlc from syndicate.
But is every myth going to end up being the result of a
?
Yes to Discovery Tour.
Only thing left to reveal now is what's up with the modern day...the Odyssey DLC didn't leave things in such a great state.

Huh? You mean that horde mode? Wasn't that *also* not canon? Similar to the Washington expansion of ACIII
This is what I'm saying, you wouldn't call the OG Red Dead a fantasy game because it had a whacky zombie expansion, same way I wouldn't call the older ACs full on fantasy games because they might had some elements outside the story here and there.
This (and maybe Odyssey, haven't played it) is just full on embracing it and making you hunt moss monsters. Not complaining, it looks sick, but it is a shift.
YESSSS new discovery tour will be very very very good!
God maybe the best thing that Ubi has ever done with the AC series.
I LOVED AC O and AC OD discovery tour they are very awesome!

No, the Gold Edition is just a package of the base game and season pass. The Ultimate Edition comes with additional things.
All of the mythological elements in Odyssey and Origins are presented in the context of the first civilization tech. I'm sure it will be the same in Valhalla.
Why is i that I feel more interested by the DLCs than the actual game? I had the same feeling with Odyssey. The actual game to me feels like your typical AC story with the same mechanics while the DLCs seem like they try new mechanics that they are afraid to include in the base game. Siege of Paris seems very interesting to me.
This will be my first game to play on the new Xbox. Everything about it sounds great. I really like Story mode; my guess is that it also brings greater appreciation to the artists involved in creating these beautiful worlds.
Riiight. I actually forgot about those alien space tombs.
Yeah, maybe. I just got the impression, after literally seeing mythological wolves and leshen-like creatures, that they just gonna scrap that.
Nope- they did all of this in Odyssey (Minotaurs, Sphinxes, Cyclops, etc) and it's treated as First Civ tech. They aren't going to deviate from that here.
Not aliens. Weird how people still think first civ are aliens when the evolved on Earth.
If it's like The Division 2, probably not. I don't know if there is a timing exclusivity for EGS or not.
Man things seem strangely silent on the Legion front considering it's right around the corner. Seems like Valhalla is getting significantly more marketing than Watch Dogs.
I wish they would have focused on the Nordic countries... why not Denmark or Norway in more depth? But hey, why not. It's intriguing.
? Is it? They released their post launch video and Story video about a week or two ago.
As an Irishman all I can say is "FINALLY!" :)
After teasing us in Black Flag. Sure it's not during the rising or the War of Independence but I'll take it.

True. I guess I mean in terms of interest. Just not seeing a lot of chatter (not just here but Twitter, etc).
Ah I can see that. AC is definitely way more popular of the two. It doesn't help that they're being released around the same time.
They do market it quite a bit, but they big season pass play was Aiden and everyone was like what the fuck are you doing Ubi?
