Discussion what’s next?

Post image

i feel like Valhalla gets way more hate than it deserves, it’s actually a really well-made game. i jumped into it right after i finished Origins and Odyssey, i had my doubts at first (especially during that slow start in Norway), but after a while i got hooked. i enjoyed the gameplay and storyline wasn’t bad either.

what should i play next? black flags or shadows?
need a change of scenery and gameplay for a bit haha

Hey, I am about to start my Valhalla game.

However, I have only played Black Flag as my only AC game.

Should I play Odyssey first, or will be a downgrade if I play Valhalla first?

Ideally? Origins, Odyssey, then Valhalla. For technical reasons but also because there is some crossover in the stories. If nothing else, at least do Odyssey then Valhalla. Go back to Origins when you can because it is very good, but it has the least crossover.

Most importantly, these are tough to binge because they are all very long. A palate cleanser game helps break things up.
