@Vikrant Deshmukh sorry bro but that's not entirely true, at least for me it's not, I'm not saying the game isn't good, it's actually a fantastic and really story drawn game that invites you to explore Norse mythology and the Viking expansion but it just doesn't feel like an Assassin's Creed. like for me odyssey felt more relatable to the series than Valhalla and the assassin's hadn't even been officially established yet, Valhalla would definitely excel as a spinoff side story to the ac franchise but not as part of the main series
@nygelwilliams5880 People just want to play an assassin again they don't care for the lore or the story. Origin's Odyssey Valhalla they answered a lot of questions that the old games left behind huge plot holes that were filled valhalla did most of the filling. But it answered a lot of questions like Kassandra's dads temple in assassin's creed bro. we find his temple and learn that he did something..... but what was it assassin's creed Odyssey comes out it explains what he did...."ohhhh"

maybe because Eivor finally acept Odin a little bit, that's why when they meet King Harald. Eivor said tell story from long long ago and they touch the ISU mark
I know a large majority of people really disliked this game, but even with all the hate, this game has been one of the best experiences I’ve had with playing AC games and has helped me push through hard times. No one will ever convince me that this game was bad and I’m so hyped to see what they bring to the table for Mirage.
i personally enjoyed Valhalla. while the lack of a NG+ mode is disappointing, though understandable given the changes made, it is still one of the better entries into the AC franchise. not quite as good as Odyssey, but still one of the better games. Odyssey essentially captured Lightning in a bottle. and while obviously changes between games are to be expected? they did not truly recapture that lightning with Valhalla. i personally feel that the entire AC franchise is heading in a very particular direction. someday in the future, Ubisoft will unveil an assassins creed game that does NOT involve an Animus, beyond it being a training tool. i feel that one day soon, they will give us an assassin's creed game FULLY set in the modern era. and that game will likely be the one that brings the Templar assassin war to a final close. now i do not believe that will be the end of the franchise, there are still so many historical periods to explore, and thus the games have endless options for settings. but sooner or later the conflict between the assassins and Templar will need to end. and for some reason i feel that basim's arrival into the modern age marks the beginning of that journey. the problem with Valhalla, i feel, is that it was too ambitious. they tried to change too much from Odyssey. they were going for groundbreaking, fresh and new... and fell short of the mark. but most of all? they are trying to put things back the way they were in the original games. they are slowly drifting away from the action adventure sandbox formula the prequel trilogy has been using, and are instead shifting back to the stealth platformer the first games were. and THAT is their biggest mistake. but again. this is all merely my personal opinion, and my own personal theories. nothing more.
I didn't mind playing through valhalla but it was only assassin's creed in name its story and its mystery the brotherhood and their trademark weapon the hidden blade which is more then what odyssey had as it's story pre dated the creed beginning yet what connected it was the isu which has me thinking origins odyssey and valhalla with now mirage is more of a chapter of this series storyline devoted to the isu themselves But this is just my point of view and everyone has the right to see the game the way they want to and my purpose of writing this is to give others a better understanding if they so choose I won't force anyone into it
My Theories: I think Basim genuinely wants to help the Modern Assassins reform and return back to its roots, back to the Creed. He even allowed William Miles to look into his memories by giving him a genetic sample of his blood. The Assassins will look through Basim's memories (AC Mirage) to learn about Basim, his past, and his Isu past (a weird job interview for Basim). Basim will help the Modern Assassins while William Miles will help him find his children in the various Isu simulations and programs in later to be shown Isu Temples and computer systems. What most interested me is how King Alfred tried to recruit Eivor to the Templar Order. He somewhat wishes Eivor to be a Master Templar of the British Rite but accepts Eivor's decision to leave England and go through a self-understanding journey. It is likely Guthrum (Aethelstan) joined the Templar Order as his Christian cross was red with gold linings. I think Eivor actually managed to unite all the surviving Isu Norse Sages: Eivor (Odin), Sigurd (Tyr), Harald Finhair (Freyr), Halfdan Ragnarsson (Thor), Faravid (Sif), and Gull (Idun). This can be noticed when Eivor, Tyr, and Harald touched their Isu neck scars to acknowledge their Reborn Isu status and an understanding of why Eivor leaves for Vinland. I think Roshan is trying to meet up with Hytham to talk about the Hidden Ones' plans for Jerusalem and the Holy Land. She thought helping the Raven Clan is a good way to earn the clan's trust. Honestly, the mission should've started at the Hidden One base in Ravensthorpe where Roshan meets Hytham who introduces her to Eivor. Roshan talks about Basim to Eivor and so on without giving too much away for the events of AC Mirage. Also, I believe Juno is alive and she just copied her consciousness to the Juno body that was killed by Charlotte De La Cruz during the AC Uprising event. I think the Hidden Ones and Templars were actually close allies. The Hidden Ones were later involved in defeating the Order of the Ancients who were affiliated with King Harald Bluetooth and Styrbjörn the Strong during the Late Viking Age in the 10th century. However, times of disagreements, corruption, and problems caused the Hidden Ones and Templars to fight each other some years before the start of the First Crusade. What should be understood is that the Assassins and Templars didn't know about the Isu until the Renaissance Age. However, we learn more about the Isu through non-Assassins (Kassandra and Eivor) who learn about the Isu in more detail since Ancient History and the Early Medieval Ages are when the Isu still had a strong presence in the world until it diminished as time goes on. The Isu was practically an advanced race so the real version is that the Isu is technically a utopian/dystopian futuristic society. What is interesting is that the Hidden Ones never cared about Freedom or the Isu. They cared about peace. That's all. The Assassins became dogmatic in their goals and it got worse in the 20th Century when the Assassins tolerated the indirect killing of innocents. It was safe for Kassandra and Eivor not to tell the Hidden Ones about the Isu to prevent them from being obsessed as they were.
Interesting, (I have yet to play the last chapter) but from the main game ending you see that basim is gone and Loki is the only person that remains. Unlike eivor who fought off the reincarnation seventh method basim succumbed to Loki. Loki may want to see the assassins build up again but that is because he is using them to find his children or whatever.
@@Telamonian i think they are the same person basem -loki, eivor-odin, sigurd-Tyr And they all have forgotten about the live they have lived as isu and what we have seen in eivor, is that she doesn’t want to remember the old live
that's not me I really liked it. I've learnt the stories, how to make decisions, problem solving, the riddles, the politics, not to mention the exploration with the ashtonizing the graphic it really felt like I was inside the game as a viking warrior. I wonder why ppl hate this such masterpiece? if that's about the RPG and mythical creatures stuff well we were meant to understand about the history of the ISU, how the templar order and Assassins creed was established are in AC Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins
And so Valhalla's time has for all intent & purpose's come to a close. There's still the Yule Event, unless they cancelled it, but after that I don't think they'll be doing anymore Event's after that. The face-to-face on the dock surprised me. And I so love the cutscene at the end, especially outside the cabin.
We got a weird glitch where our character is male Eivor but the cutscenes are female Eivor. I think others got the same. Maybe just confirming female Eivor is canon? Not sure
It will always be female Eivor but depending on who you chose (male/female) either female eivor is the one who talks or the male Eivor (Odin) is the one who talks.
So either William Miles will be the one to use the Animus to gain information of Basim's memories, or someone else will take the mantle as Basim provided his genetic/blood as a genetic material to extract the memories of Basim
@@deathbykonami5487 it doesn't really work in a narrative perspective, why even have William Miles receive his genetic material and extract it's memories when you have the guy himself?
@@bugs2814 I think William wants to know whether or not he can trust him. By Basim handing over his genetic memory, it shows that he has no secrets to hide from William, and therefore can be trusted
Ign confirmed Basim would be the new series modern protagonist for now, but William miles will enter Basim memories to search and reveal more secrets about the first civilization
0:48 I played as the female Eivor and I was wondering why Odin looked like the male Eivor. Now it makes sense for me and I like how they implemented this scene.
Now this might actually be the best scenes ever made in Valhalla, with much more care and focus on to their final act and outing of this game. And it is something that fascinates me nontheless. All of this, due to the fact that Ubisoft doesn't always pay respect and attention to its material but when it does, it truly brings a better ending to the matter of things. We saw the same thing and a great ending in Odyssey as well and it brings exactly the same vibes and feelings as that one did
I really like that Eivor seemingly fell in love with the Natives and their way of life, makes you understand the trauma he had that after everything, after learning he had a god within him, all he wanted was peace.
i finished the game twice when i pirated the game and finished thrice when i bought this game on sale for the dlcs honestly even though it isnt a proper assassins creed game it was alright i feel like the conclusion to this story was good enough i will miss this game for sure. For me Assassins creed origins nailed every part for being an assassins creed game.Bayek of Siwa is still unmatched for me.
19:49 to 21:09 I'm going to be blunt; "Ezio's Family" theme never gets old. It is the best main theme music for the Assassin's Creed series. Next Time: Assassin's Creed Mirage
Tbh I never really find it over used as non assassins creed players say it was because it’s amazing how they change it for most ac games to fit them and they give credit to the game to made them popular which was ac2. They did over use it in odyssey but it didn’t bother me as I love hearing the ezio family. The only song I wish was in Valhalla was my mother told me
I really feel Like Mirage is setting up for Desmond and Layla to return. Hear me out, Basim now has the Staff. He will do anything to reunite with his family. He clearly sees the Templars as a threat. I really think Basim will infiltrate an Abstergo facility and retrieve Desmond’s body, and bring it to World Trees. He will use the Staff to resurrect Layla and Desmond and retrieve their consciousness from the cloud back into their bodies respectively . Together they would be unstoppable and end the Templars for good.
A good end to an alright game. I know there’s a lot of people who didn’t like Valhalla but I enjoyed it. I’m excited to see Basim grow from a hidden one to whoever he truly is today. Is Basim really Basim, Loki or someone in between?
Personally I enjoyed this the most out of all AC games. I agree that it didnt feel like other AC games, but I dont think its neccessarily bad. As of Mirage, I'm very excited for it xD
Eivor without a doubt a rare brave warrior n a great leader too with so many allies supporting her... She conquered the negative emotions within... She may be not an assassin but she remains mighty hidden one like bayek for such a long time until someone found her grave
I understand the dev’s choice to make a female protagonist but for a final farewell the least they could do is allow the players to have Odin speak to male Eivor and not the “canon” female choice. Bit of a slap to immersion for players who play the male version.
@@warchiefvenomn7612 I get that, but even during the post assassination scenes we have male Eivor speaking to Odin who is an older version of the same skin. For one who plays the male version, the game immediately switching to the female ver still is a shitty way to end the game.
This is what we all loved about it but all our hearts are always connected to the original assassin's creed but I hope that the next assassin's creed be about assassin's not some mythologys
Ubisoft screwed up assassin‘s creed Valhalla up by not releasing new game plus and making the mistake by not putting a loot drop system in the game I hope Thay don’t make the same mistake in assassin’s creed mirage
I wish the armors in this game were more subtle. Some of them look like they belong in some other place besides 9th century England. Even things that aren't Isu usually gain an otherworldly quality that doesn't fit that well with the setting. I prefer Game of Throws style medieval and not fantasy looking stuff for this setting.
so we know mirage is about basim, and here i thought we were going to be playing as basim, but judging by this, hes given his blood for the animus to suggest that the next protagonist might actually be william, or maybe basim needs his own blood to dive into his memories? idk
I assume the genetic memories are coming from himself, since it was his blood sample, and the machine started extracting them. Then he said "You are in for quite a ride, Mister Miles" after that. So I assume what William asked Basim was to know more about Basim's history, and the memories (after extraction) are meant for William to view. Hmmmm, so it would make sense for William to be the protagonist, as you say, (at least partially) in the next game,, which we already know will be about Basim (pre-meeting Eivor). 🐧

And Wiki seems to agree with us - "After completing Eivor's memories, Basim is met in the Animus by William Miles, who stipulates that if they are going to work together, he will first need a sample of Basim’s genetic material, allowing the Assassins to access Basim’s genetic memories." 🐧

She wasn't chaotic but I think of her when I hear Harley Quinn from the cartoons or games :D I think they made if off the soap unscathed!
Though I have mixed feelings about Valhalla and its DLCs as a whole, this was a really nice finishing note to the game's story arc. Almost reminds me of Ezio in Embers, the way it gives full closure to the character.
This was nice but didn't seem to have much to it. A few goodbyes, and explained why Eivor went to "the new world", it seems. Fine enough of an ending, I suppose. Thanks GLP! 🐧
You guys know that both female robot and male are canon right. The Viking in themselves is the female eivor the isu warrior known as Odin who is male got reincarnated in female eivor so they both share the same mind. If you play with male eivor then Odin is the dominating
When I found out female Eivor was Canon I was Slightly disappointed as I liked the male voice more than the female voice, but I couldn't be more happier with how they ended things
@@thomasrichards2593 To me male Evior is Canon to me they should’ve used to default Odin model that you see in your visions it’s not fair as this is my country‘s history I would’ve chosen female Eivor if they really weren’t going to stick to that both genders are Canon sad because I really enjoyed this game and then by the time I learn that they will not let you have a Male Evior No matter which gender you choose it was far too late by then and it’s utterly pointless
Looking back at what ubi has done they really peaked with the hidden ones dlc, now they out here spewing dlc calling it a“Ubisoft original”😭 looking at you far cry 6 dlc coming up
Basim knew that Eivor was actually a female..thats why there is no uncertainity of this character to be female...no matter what layla chose to play with,Basim chose the accurate one...but dont know why later it became male..
I think Basim (Loki) deep down wants to see Eivor's kindness be portrayed in an Odin form because he misses his mentor (Odin) before his fall to madness.
how did he die there? who buried him? what happend until he died? was he killed did he die of old age? it was a bad ending there was no closure at all only a few short goodbys then a open ending... sad
I think he would of be friended the natives from years ago to when he was back and possibly died of old age or a illness I don’t believe he would of died in battle after learning the things he learned
It is pretty obvious that he just lives his final days there lmao. We already know he enjoys the company of the natives and appreciates the peace and serenity there
it was "she". she wanted to learn all of the history of the ISU from the Odin (male Eivor) as you can see their dialogue in the end they have a lot of time there. she settled in Vinland (America) was because she wanted to learn in peace and left all politics affairs behind just like people in their retirement, so yeah she probably died of old age
The ending kinda chamged my opinion the game. The game is better than what i remembered it to be but still not my favorite. Im just amazed about the cliffhanger at the end.
He won’t and he shouldn’t. But… Ubisoft has proven completely up incapable of making a new storyline and good characters in the modern setting. But Miles story is over, he learned all and sacrificed himself to save the world
@@sunnysidejoni shame they wont at the new game plus mode. Finally a AC soft reboot I like(Odyssey was ridiculous to me) and I have to settle for no replay

This game is just like the last kingdom, Even king Alfreds palace is the same. Looks the same too. in Winchester. Guntherm going Christian. Even the guy who plays eivor is in last kingdom as young ragnor cousin Just replace eivor with ultred and bam lol Lot of the same names in both I see alot of similarities
Terrible ending tbh this feels like a rush ending for next game. I would have liked to see Iceland and Greenland and eivor perhaps take place on the throne. Not this "I must find myself" crap
Thanks for uploading this. 👍👍 I like Eivor but I'm not impressed with so much side tracking into dream visions, etc that has nothing to do with the main story. I'd rather not have dream visions but Eivor witnessing actual Isu events and the Seer attempting to explain it to her using what she understood of Odin, etc. The last DLC (Ragnarok) add nothing worthwhile. I didn't bother to log in to play this last bit and opted to just cut to the chase by watching cutscenes.
1:52 The F***k? I thought Loki fully took over Basim but he's accepting that as Basim!? I mean there's another confusion for me. Then what's the difference left between Eivor defying Odin to take over him and Loki taking over Basim? My 2nd confusion is that why Odin is appearing as Eivor here? He appeared a little different while talking to Eivor in his hall.
Loki didnt 'TAKE OVER' it isnt a parasitic relationship. His memories presented themselves to Basim and Basim accepted them. Eivor however struggles with her lineage throughout the game but has finally managed to come to peace with it but she still doesnt let it to overtake her.
I enjoyed the game but the end really lost me. It was way too long. After the wedding I found that to get this ending I’d have to put many more hours in so I gave up. Far quicker to just watch it on RUclips.
This missed the point of valhalla and tried way to hard to be non committal yet pushing female eivor on us weather you like it or not. It also makes no sense to history as Paris happens after half of this in history... and characters like Harold are friendly beyond reason as thay dont know eivor and eivor betrayed them... its nonsense.
man seeing a couple videos pop up with this is driving me insane lol because i cant play this till the 6th when it comes out. How does one get to play a week before everyone else lol i must know
Eivor is a reincarnation of Odin, these are two different people in one body, long story short eivor wins the control of the body but still has fragments of Odin in his mind.
Kinda. He’s the reincarnation of Loki, like Eivor is of Odin. He’s bad, but also a loyal member of the creed. He tricked the main girl to come back to life too. I’d say we’d know for sure with the next game because it’s all about him. Probably play him in the Animus and in the modern part.
@@devondavis5119 Well I will be happy when Odyssey and Valhalla get permanently removed from Assasin’s Creed as they’re not true Assassin’s Creed Games…AT ALL

The Assassins became dogmatic in their goals and it got worse in the 20th Century when the Assassins tolerated the indirect killing of innocents. It was safe for Kassandra and Eivor not to tell the Hidden Ones about the Isu to prevent them from being obsessed as they were.
Interesting, (I have yet to play the last chapter) but from the main game ending you see that basim is gone and Loki is the only person that remains. Unlike eivor who fought off the reincarnation seventh method basim succumbed to Loki. Loki may want to see the assassins build up again but that is because he is using them to find his children or whatever.
You are genius
Interesting theory 👍🏼
@@Telamonian
i think they are the same person basem -loki, eivor-odin, sigurd-Tyr
And they all have forgotten about the live they have lived as isu and what we have seen in eivor, is that she doesn’t want to remember the old live
Basim is evil and can never be redeemed lol.
@@Telamonian did you watched the above video?
Basim clearly says he and loki came to mutual understanding.
Basim didn't succumb to loki
Farewell Eivor, people may not of liked you, but I liked your story.
I did
This ending was so touching for me, especially scene in vinland when Odin talks to Eivor about ragnarok...
Same, but I do like how Eivor reconcile with Odin.
My guess is that, this is what we'll see in Mirage: Basim talking to Djinn (possibly Loki).
One of my favorite games of all time.
that's not me I really liked it. I've learnt the stories, how to make decisions, problem solving, the riddles, the politics, not to mention the exploration with the ashtonizing the graphic it really felt like I was inside the game as a viking warrior. I wonder why ppl hate this such masterpiece? if that's about the RPG and mythical creatures stuff well we were meant to understand about the history of the ISU, how the templar order and Assassins creed was established are in AC Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins
And so Valhalla's time has for all intent & purpose's come to a close.
There's still the Yule Event, unless they cancelled it, but after that I don't think they'll be doing anymore Event's after that.
The face-to-face on the dock surprised me. And I so love the cutscene at the end, especially outside the cabin.
We got a weird glitch where our character is male Eivor but the cutscenes are female Eivor. I think others got the same. Maybe just confirming female Eivor is canon? Not sure
She was already confirmed to be canon but that is hilarious!
It will always be female Eivor but depending on who you chose (male/female) either female eivor is the one who talks or the male Eivor (Odin) is the one who talks.
It wasn't a glitch
Female Eivor has been confirmed Cannon ever since the game was released.
Eivor herself has always been canon. The male choice was always just the Animus overlaying Odin's DNA on top like an avatar.
So either William Miles will be the one to use the Animus to gain information of Basim's memories, or someone else will take the mantle as Basim provided his genetic/blood as a genetic material to extract the memories of Basim
Nah Basim will use the Animus himself since he was resurrected at the end of the main story.
@@deathbykonami5487 it doesn't really work in a narrative perspective, why even have William Miles receive his genetic material and extract it's memories when you have the guy himself?
@@bugs2814 I think William wants to know whether or not he can trust him. By Basim handing over his genetic memory, it shows that he has no secrets to hide from William, and therefore can be trusted
It would have been interesting if Basim used the Animus on himself, to uncover Basim’s memories, since Loki may not remember what Basim does.
Ign confirmed Basim would be the new series modern protagonist for now, but William miles will enter Basim memories to search and reveal more secrets about the first civilization
0:48 I played as the female Eivor and I was wondering why Odin looked like the male Eivor. Now it makes sense for me and I like how they implemented this scene.
I don’t get it?
@@joefayant8470 The Male Eivor is Odin,
And the Female Eivor is canon
@@amqru Ew
Male evior is cannon to me his voice actor is better
@@DP-lt6rl Both are canon because they're the same person in a certain way. Eivor is just a reincarnation of Odin.
Odin: This will take some time to explain...

⭕
Now this might actually be the best scenes ever made in Valhalla, with much more care and focus on to their final act and outing of this game. And it is something that fascinates me nontheless.
All of this, due to the fact that Ubisoft doesn't always pay respect and attention to its material but when it does, it truly brings a better ending to the matter of things.
We saw the same thing and a great ending in Odyssey as well and it brings exactly the same vibes and feelings as that one did
Exactly.
Here's to Mirage delivering.
I just don't see how a solid 100+ hour story based game ends with anything still up in the air
I really like that Eivor seemingly fell in love with the Natives and their way of life, makes you understand the trauma he had that after everything, after learning he had a god within him, all he wanted was peace.
Don't get me wrong, I've put some serious hours into this game, but this feels like a cop out
Big time. The main game never ended, and this still didn't tie up any loose ends
Weren’t we supposed to get another main DLC? One to end the Dawn Of Ragnorak storyline? This is cool but we got robbed.
@@Max-bp5sgthat's the Forgotten Saga free update
This is probably the main example of what comes to mind when thinking of the hardest things to say goodbye to.
i finished the game twice when i pirated the game and finished thrice when i bought this game on sale for the dlcs honestly even though it isnt a proper assassins creed game it was alright i feel like the conclusion to this story was good enough i will miss this game for sure. For me Assassins creed origins nailed every part for being an assassins creed game.Bayek of Siwa is still unmatched for me.
19:49 to 21:09 I'm going to be blunt; "Ezio's Family" theme never gets old. It is the best main theme music for the Assassin's Creed series.
Next Time: Assassin's Creed Mirage
Tbh I never really find it over used as non assassins creed players say it was because it’s amazing how they change it for most ac games to fit them and they give credit to the game to made them popular which was ac2. They did over use it in odyssey but it didn’t bother me as I love hearing the ezio family. The only song I wish was in Valhalla was my mother told me
Farewell Eivor
I really feel Like Mirage is setting up for Desmond and Layla to return. Hear me out, Basim now has the Staff. He will do anything to reunite with his family. He clearly sees the Templars as a threat. I really think Basim will infiltrate an Abstergo facility and retrieve Desmond’s body, and bring it to World Trees. He will use the Staff to resurrect Layla and Desmond and retrieve their consciousness from the cloud back into their bodies respectively . Together they would be unstoppable and end the Templars for good.
copium
@@taurusilva3086 Probably, but I don't see another way to redeem Basim at all.
Farewell Eivor, she was the best character
Yeah she is😢
Lies
A good end to an alright game. I know there’s a lot of people who didn’t like Valhalla but I enjoyed it. I’m excited to see Basim grow from a hidden one to whoever he truly is today. Is Basim really Basim, Loki or someone in between?
Alright game? This game was amazing imo. One of the best games in a long time.
Personally I enjoyed this the most out of all AC games. I agree that it didnt feel like other AC games, but I dont think its neccessarily bad. As of Mirage, I'm very excited for it xD
Eivor without a doubt a rare brave warrior n a great leader too with so many allies supporting her... She conquered the negative emotions within...
She may be not an assassin but she remains mighty hidden one like bayek for such a long time until someone found her grave
At least male eivor is still playable and I wish he was called einar the raven bearer and I look forward to seeing ac mirage
I understand the dev’s choice to make a female protagonist but for a final farewell the least they could do is allow the players to have Odin speak to male Eivor and not the “canon” female choice. Bit of a slap to immersion for players who play the male version.
Male Eivor is Odin.
@@warchiefvenomn7612 I get that, but even during the post assassination scenes we have male Eivor speaking to Odin who is an older version of the same skin. For one who plays the male version, the game immediately switching to the female ver still is a shitty way to end the game.
@@StalloneAman because that's before the game ends. That's before odin tried to take over eivor's mind
This is what we all loved about it but all our hearts are always connected to the original assassin's creed but I hope that the next assassin's creed be about assassin's not some mythologys
Makes me wonder if Eivor ever realized that she was Odin reincarnated and that’s the reason why Basim attacked her and held Sigurd hostage.
Pretty sure Odin explain it to her, we saw that in the last part
Ubisoft screwed up assassin‘s creed Valhalla up by not releasing new game plus and making the mistake by not putting a loot drop system in the game I hope Thay don’t make the same mistake in assassin’s creed mirage
I wish the armors in this game were more subtle. Some of them look like they belong in some other place besides 9th century England. Even things that aren't Isu usually gain an otherworldly quality that doesn't fit that well with the setting. I prefer Game of Throws style medieval and not fantasy looking stuff for this setting.
so we know mirage is about basim, and here i thought we were going to be playing as basim, but judging by this, hes given his blood for the animus to suggest that the next protagonist might actually be william, or maybe basim needs his own blood to dive into his memories? idk
I assume the genetic memories are coming from himself, since it was his blood sample, and the machine started extracting them. Then he said "You are in for quite a ride, Mister Miles" after that. So I assume what William asked Basim was to know more about Basim's history, and the memories (after extraction) are meant for William to view. Hmmmm, so it would make sense for William to be the protagonist, as you say, (at least partially) in the next game,, which we already know will be about Basim (pre-meeting Eivor). 🐧
@@itznotmytube playing as William could be cool, it’s always good to get more John delancie
@@1jidion It's funny that I've known who John Delancie is for many many years, he used to be a fun character on one of the soaps that my mom watches or used to watch (he was on Days of Our Lives from
1982-1990) - before TNG. And Wiki seems to agree with us - "After completing Eivor's memories, Basim is met in the Animus by William Miles, who stipulates that if they are going to work together, he will first need a sample of Basim’s genetic material, allowing the Assassins to access Basim’s genetic memories." 🐧
@@itznotmytube I love it when a theory is proven, it’s a really good feeling, funnily enough, I started liking John when he played discord in mlp, which is similar to Q from tng

She wasn't chaotic but I think of her when I hear Harley Quinn from the cartoons or games :D I think they made if off the soap unscathed!
i just noticed this but when he says long ago 13:20 he is referring to their past lives as ISU
Both eivors? Nice might pick this game back up 🔥
Though I have mixed feelings about Valhalla and its DLCs as a whole, this was a really nice finishing note to the game's story arc. Almost reminds me of Ezio in Embers, the way it gives full closure to the character.
I hope have a descendant of eivor who has the memory of odin who learned to
Co exist with his vessel.
I wonder what eivor, harald n sigurd talking about after all 3 touch the neck, wonder they talk as odin, tyr n freyr
Exactly that. They would probably reminisce during their time on earth when they were ISU
So Basim just went full "piece of shit" mode eh?
I was disappointed with this DLC because it was so short but then again it is free. I’d be absolutely livid if I’d paid money for it.
Glad I didn't re-download the game so I wouldn't feel like I wasted time deleting some games just to make some space.
@@IBloodDrunkHunter yeah just deleted it too good riddance also because of that dow dlc not free
@@subhan_ali1it’s better than people give credit for
Ok now Bayek gets one right?
So 29 days until AC Mirage? Basim clearly extracted his blood under William's request to see his memory!!!
no. it comes out in August 23
I mean why does he want someone to explore his memory when he already lived his life on his own. Kinda confused tbh
@@waleedawan5454 I assume having someone live your life is faster and more accurate than trying to explain it.
It's cool to know that it's William Miles in the Animas looking at basims and Loki's memories
We don’t know that yet
This was nice but didn't seem to have much to it. A few goodbyes, and explained why Eivor went to "the new world", it seems. Fine enough of an ending, I suppose. Thanks GLP! 🐧
Basim really cared about Hytham 3:47
Still nothing on how eivor actually died?
Old age
You guys know that both female robot and male are canon right. The Viking in themselves is the female eivor the isu warrior known as Odin who is male got reincarnated in female eivor so they both share the same mind. If you play with male eivor then Odin is the dominating
When I found out female Eivor was Canon I was Slightly disappointed as I liked the male voice more than the female voice, but I couldn't be more happier with how they ended things
@@thomasrichards2593 To me male Evior is Canon to me they should’ve used to default Odin model that you see in your visions it’s not fair as this is my country‘s history I would’ve chosen female Eivor if they really weren’t going to stick to that both genders are Canon sad because I really enjoyed this game and then by the time I learn that they will not let you have a Male Evior No matter which gender you choose it was far too late by then and it’s utterly pointless
What does canon mean? Does that mean like the main character ?
Looking back at what ubi has done they really peaked with the hidden ones dlc, now they out here spewing dlc calling it a“Ubisoft original”😭 looking at you far cry 6 dlc coming up
Did i must buy Vinland, Ireland, France and Ragnarok DLC to get this mission?
Basim knew that Eivor was actually a female..thats why there is no uncertainity of this character to be female...no matter what layla chose to play with,Basim chose the accurate one...but dont know why later it became male..
I think Basim (Loki) deep down wants to see Eivor's kindness be portrayed in an Odin form because he misses his mentor (Odin) before his fall to madness.
how did he die there? who buried him? what happend until he died? was he killed did he die of old age? it was a bad ending there was no closure at all only a few short goodbys then a open ending... sad
I think he would of be friended the natives from years ago to when he was back and possibly died of old age or a illness I don’t believe he would of died in battle after learning the things he learned
It is pretty obvious that he just lives his final days there lmao. We already know he enjoys the company of the natives and appreciates the peace and serenity there
it was "she". she wanted to learn all of the history of the ISU from the Odin (male Eivor) as you can see their dialogue in the end they have a lot of time there. she settled in Vinland (America) was because she wanted to learn in peace and left all politics affairs behind just like people in their retirement, so yeah she probably died of old age

-No,we have Witcher 3:Blood and Wine at home.
Witcher 3:Blood and Wine at home:
One of the best endings in all of the AC franchise
spent over 100 hours fighting game crashes. thanks i cant play this game anymore cause it is too much and sadly everything is averge in gameplay
So Eivor turned town becoming a Hidden One, and then turned down becoming one of the first ever Templars.
Hate the color in the cloak feathers
The point of this is to show the location of the memory fragment
So the Odin we see at the end of Valhalla story is this the same Odin we play as in dawn of ragnarok Asgard chapter etc
The ending kinda chamged my opinion the game. The game is better than what i remembered it to be but still not my favorite. Im just amazed about the cliffhanger at the end.
How do you accesss this cutscene?
I maxed out settlement
Finished story
And got all of thors armor including mjolnir
im just waiting to see how desmond comes back
He won’t and he shouldn’t. But… Ubisoft has proven completely up incapable of making a new storyline and good characters in the modern setting. But Miles story is over, he learned all and sacrificed himself to save the world

No Eivor was never an Assassin, she never even joined the Hidden Ones. And this isn’t even a True Assassin’s Creed game

May the Wolf Kissed be remembered. His saga was grand.
The armor looks so stupid in these cutscenes lol
This game is just like the last kingdom, Even king Alfreds palace is the same. Looks the same too. in Winchester. Guntherm going Christian. Even the guy who plays eivor is in last kingdom as young ragnor cousin
Just replace eivor with ultred and bam lol Lot of the same names in both I see alot of similarities
I can't access this even though I meet all of the requirements.
I think our copies are corrupted
Terrible ending tbh this feels like a rush ending for next game. I would have liked to see Iceland and Greenland and eivor perhaps take place on the throne. Not this "I must find myself" crap
This game introduced more sages then just Aita
wait how do I play this scene?? i dont remember playing this scene , only the beginning part ..
The only thing I liked about this chapter is the outfit rest of it is just pure shit nothing but memories
Lol Assasins Creed is all memories lol. You heard of the animus
Thanks for uploading this. 👍👍
I like Eivor but I'm not impressed with so much side tracking into dream visions, etc that has nothing to do with the main story. I'd rather not have dream visions but Eivor witnessing actual Isu events and the Seer attempting to explain it to her using what she understood of Odin, etc. The last DLC (Ragnarok) add nothing worthwhile. I didn't bother to log in to play this last bit and opted to just cut to the chase by watching cutscenes.
1:52
The F***k?
I thought Loki fully took over Basim but he's accepting that as Basim!?
I mean there's another confusion for me. Then what's the difference left between Eivor defying Odin to take over him and Loki taking over Basim?
My 2nd confusion is that why Odin is appearing as Eivor here?
He appeared a little different while talking to Eivor in his hall.
Loki didnt 'TAKE OVER' it isnt a parasitic relationship. His memories presented themselves to Basim and Basim accepted them. Eivor however struggles with her lineage throughout the game but has finally managed to come to peace with it but she still doesnt let it to overtake her.
Basim and Loki found a mutual ground with the bond of losing loved ones over people they trusted.
Does anyone know how much time passed between from the end of the main campaign and the last chapter
Probably 5 years at the minimum
I enjoyed the game but the end really lost me. It was way too long. After the wedding I found that to get this ending I’d have to put many more hours in so I gave up. Far quicker to just watch it on RUclips.
This missed the point of valhalla and tried way to hard to be non committal yet pushing female eivor on us weather you like it or not.
It also makes no sense to history as Paris happens after half of this in history... and characters like Harold are friendly beyond reason as thay dont know eivor and eivor betrayed them... its nonsense.
Assassin creed valhalla sucks god of war ragnarok is what really ac valhalla combat should have looked like,especially the dlc
I love both gow and ac Valhalla but the combat style should stay in their games
Lol funny for this game I used the Thor armor set too almost completely because it looks the most Viking Assassin esque

And so I’m one of 0.03% of players that completed this on Xbox. What a journey. GGWP Skål 🍺.
I want to see eivor on asgard or helheim
Eivor looks like Elton John 😅
How to fix the outfit? that obviously not how it surposed to look makes the last chapter unplayable any suggestions anyone?
man seeing a couple videos pop up with this is driving me insane lol because i cant play this till the 6th when it comes out. How does one get to play a week before everyone else lol i must know
It released already
It was a shadow drop. A nice surprise. You can play now. :)
Goated game
That's why they took it off ps plus extra they down bad for that
I haven’t played the DLC but can someone please explain why there are both versions of Eivor?
Eivor is a reincarnation of Odin, these are two different people in one body, long story short eivor wins the control of the body but still has fragments of Odin in his mind.
Ohhhh yo thanks bro
So is basim a bad guy?
Kinda. He’s the reincarnation of Loki, like Eivor is of Odin. He’s bad, but also a loyal member of the creed. He tricked the main girl to come back to life too. I’d say we’d know for sure with the next game because it’s all about him. Probably play him in the Animus and in the modern part.
