Now, this isn’t something I would usually write about. This isn’t a horror film, nor is it even a film. So why am I making an article about this game? Simple.

I need to get whatever is on my chest about this game off said chest. This isn’t going to be a super organized review, but rather my general thoughts and opinions.

WARNING: This article contains spoilers for AC:Valhalla and opinions that shouldn’t be taken seriously.

Let me cut to the chase by pointing out this games biggest flaw; the length. After completing the story, I went back to the main menu and saw that it took me roughly 61 hours and 38 minutes to reach the end. Do you know how many times I could’ve watched Jaws: The Revenge with that amount of time? I don’t, because I hate math.

Anyway, it felt like I was killing time before the next big chunk of story was given to me. If I had to guess how much of my 61 hour playtime was taken up by the actual story, it’d have to be less than a quarter of that time. So what did I do for those other hours? I did the same story over and over again.

Yeah so, how Valhalla stretches it’s playtime is by making you do these little story arcs in all these different territories across…
