Assassins Creed Valhalla - set in the Viking age

What? Where did you even get this from?
The Isu created human-hybrids as part of the Olympos project, the minotaur is one of them. Yes, it's an actual minotaur.

 

I confess, I did expect butthurt drivel from you. Just not this low effort. But that's Poland in a nutshell.

Ah yes, playing a beta cuck like Desmond must have spoken to you on a deep level. How stupid do you have to be to find enjoyment in that plot. People like you don't need to exist. Kill yourself.

At least you won't procreate. I guess that's something.

No, the "minotaur" is a person or construct powered by an artifact called "prize of the minotaur", which was capable of transmuting or changing the looks of a person into the beast and was a key to Atlantis.

Whatever drivel you posted is your headcanon or at least irrelevant to this creature. Clearly you're more invested in the retarded lore than I am, but you're still wrong.

This is an illusion or transmutation, magic for the lack of a better term. It is not a minotaur and it is not the result of some "olympos project" human-hybrid drivel.

 

"it transmuted it into a minotaur but akshually it wasn't a minotaur"

 

Yes, dumbfuck. It literally disappears when you remove the artifact from it. Play the game or watch a video of someone doing it.

A minotaur is a mythological moster, and doesn't disappear and isn't powered by an artifact. This was made to look like a minotaur, but it wasn't one.

I swear the AC series seems to either cause brain damage, or attract people with brain damage, who then just wallow in the lore instead of playing the damn games - aka rusty_shackleford or are permanently butthurt and in an autistic spasm, aka cvv

 

What drivel are you posting? Fucking Americans, making Pollacks look like rocket scientists since 1776.

Play the game or watch a video of it. The minotaur DISAPPEARS after the artifact is removed. Unlike actual real things.

Do you need an ameritard translation? Thanks for the screenshot dumbfuck, ... are you in Flint Michigan, drinking the tap water?

 

It doesn't "disappear", it's a fucking human transformed into an actual minotaur by the power of the relic. It's not some hologram, it is a minotaur.

So, Jesper Kyd will be back. Maybe the OST will be worth.

Beowulf!

 

Slapping XP and HP bloat onto an action game isn't necessarily a good thing.

 

Cruel truth behind Beowulf makes it sound like they're gonna make Grendel the last Scandinavian gorilla or something.

 

Assassins Creed can even be considered RPG? Far as I know throwing magic, rare, epic and legendary in your itemization dont magically turn your game into a rpg.

 

Einar "Kvitrafn" Selvik composer, who worked on the Vikings, is also doing the music score for Valhalla

 

IDK if was posted here but Social Stealth and One hit kill Hidden Blades confirmed for Valhalla.

Diablo is considered one.

 

Has exp, skill system, items, exploration and since Odyssey a fair amount of choice and consequence. If it's not an RPG then a big portion of the rpgcodex best RPG list isn't as well.

 

"...right timing...", "...requires skill..."
It'll be QTE.

 

I loved that book, the movie isn't bad as well.

 

Eaters of the dead was great. If the game is at least 50% similar to it then it will be good. But we all know it will be a pozzed anachronistic drival. I hope I am wrong.

 

AC1 hidden blade counter required quite bit of skill to pull off. Also AC never problems with QTEs.

 

Being an RPG is about having a focus on player agency, with the player's unique input shaping the narrative that follows - that's the critical "role" of the player in role-playing game. Stats, inventory, XP... those things, even though typically associated with RPGs, aren't what make a game an RPG.

And I don't think that the hard-coded boolean choices presented in Origins and Odyssey qualify them as RPGs. I don't think the same stiff 'this or that' boolean choices presented in Witcher 3 and Oblivion and Skyrim qualify them as RPGs, either. They're action-adventure games being billed as RPGs to boost their market appeal and sales.

There's nothing wrong with being an action-adventure game, either. Black Flag is amazing. But Unity and Syndicate are bad, while Origins and Odyssey are abysmal and Ubisoft have disgraced themselves by making them. AC should keep trying to be the best action-adventure game it can, and not a generic one that's pissing in everybody's faces while dishonestly telling them it's an RPG like Origins and Odyssey did.

 

Already been done innit

 

In AC1 there was a very small window in which to perform an instant kill after you countered a hit and that was even smaller if you wanted to use the hidden blade to kill. It did require some skill, yes. Maybe I was wrong and he was referring to those small intervals being brought back.
