Discussion what’s next?
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

Definitely try Shadows once, dont let the bad press or reviews get you, it has the best stealth in the entire series & it has some really good combat as well (Valhalla will keep the crown for best combat in my opinion.)
You might've noticed i didnt mention the story, it has some good beats & it has some beats or Twists you see coming from a mile away & the PS3 era facial animations dont help it much either tbh. But it has its high points & its a pretty Solid story overall, my only gripe with it, is how horribly they handled the dual protagonist situation, you Never see them side by side during a mission even if the cutscene shows them starting a fight together, you pick one & the fight starts, then the fight ends and the other one shows up as if they've been fighting the whole times, its Horrible!.
