I felt like the modern sections were starting to fulfil what had been promised throughout the series. Then they just slam the door on that. Blech.
Also agreed on length. I’m not planning to play Valhalla because I don’t want a second job.

When Valhalla released I got a copy because I hadn’t played an AC game since Syndicate and thought a Viking one would be fun. I decided to go in blind. I got maybe 30 hours in and checked how far along I was after stopping and going “no way the story is that long”, and nope. It is that long.
I was going to return it but never got around to it. Both my younger brothers ended up playing it through to completion though, so I suppose it found a home at least

Wasn’t Valhalla the one that had “time saver” microtransactions?

I completely forgot about those. I know they were a thing in Black Flag, and I remember them in Unity and I think syndicate. I’m not sure about Valhalla, but knowing Ubisoft…
I know I’m not really required to buy it, but idk. Something about it being there cheapened the experience for me.

For sure. It’s disheartening when the game has clearly had its design compromised, making a worse game to accommodate microtransactions
