actually GOW norse mythology is not as accurate as here, except look of some gods, tyr looks better in GOW but other things are written, interpreted worse in GOW
Great to see Ubisoft stickt to the myths. I realy enjoyed this game, one of my favorite Assassin's Creed games. Also also i have the logo on my phone screens since this game came out.
AC Valhalla is quite accurate contrary to popular belief I played it and it's a great game. the only complain I have is that I would have liked more accurate armors. the music is great too and they used a norwegian singer. the song he sings at the end of the game I think is in old norse and it's beautiful.
I already knew this game was quite accurate not only in the mythology but also in showing some norse customs of the period of the conquest of what is now England because they had an expert on the matter as a consultant and because I have a little knowledge about those myself. what is wrong here is that nobody explained to her that in those scenes the person indicated as Havi is Odin even if he doesn't look like Odin because in the game Eivor (the protagonist) is essentially the reincarnation of Odin and he has visions of his past life as Odin even he continues to look like himself.

I think she’ll find it’s MUCH better than God of War. Valhalla weaves the Norse myths into its own Isu storyline seamlessly and with the skills of the Nornir themselves.
@@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it Yeah. I’m fine with Odin using tricks and whatnot because he did that too. That’s honestly part of why he and Loki were such good friends even though they hated each other. But him acting like a psycho mob boss and basically everything else was….ugh
@@assassinscreedislife7636 lol what are you saying? Odin is literally a dick in the Eddas, hungry for knowledge and manipulating fate, and that's exactly how he is in the game. Maybe ACV does it better than GOW but your comment is lazy asf
@@assassinscreedislife7636well, he was the antagonist in a god of war game where the objective is for kratos to kill gods, so he had to be evil in some way, plus its not like kratos and atreus werent fully in the wrong, ragnarok could have been fully avoided if they didnt do alot of things, even the director said there is no right side.
she not talk about the builder, i read its based on mythology too god i love AC, no games that want to be more accurate with lore/history than AC (sure not 100% accurate since its a game, but still the most accurate than other video games)
sad people hate new AC games , i know why (too much to do and the games are overflooded with unnecessary things) but if you ignore all the useless shit and focus on the story line, the world, narrative, music (made by einar).... it surpasses lazy mainstream GOW narrative and gameplay
Brilliant game! People hate on it but it sure doesn't deserve it. I have 50 hours in Valhalla, over 100 hours in Odyssey they're definitely great games!
@@yuh6712 I don't think so but that's the fun part. At the moment I'm doing the Ragnarok storyline and I've not even explored the whole of the main map I still have like another 6 synchronization points to reach
mhm. GOW only has good visuals of the gods. Tyr looks cool AF, same with Jormungandr plot line, it was also cool but other than that... BalduR looks like gypsy king from the movie Snatch, thor looks alright but Odin looks like a hobo. also the way they implemented Loki into the story line isnt so smart and bright how they think it is. angrbroda race swap is also eyerolling.
true I think it's because of kratos and his descendants become a center of the story, just like every earlier GOW. in Assassins creed most of the time the main character become somekind of whatif/a fictional piece of the main lore that supposed based on the actual history
The Nordic (and Germanic and other Indo-European pantheons) are all connected. Vedic is the closest one to the ancestral PIE (Pre-Vedic) pantheon and all these pantheons are the descendants of Pre-Vedic
all pagan cultures are connected bcuz they are based on living with the nature and understanding the world through the nature and our planet. im an atheist but id rather believe in a pagan culture than monotheistical ignorant religions which teach people how to hate others (islam and christianity talk about hating nonbelievers and even hurting them if they do not convert) meanwhile poetic edda (norse), greek , roman, slavic, egyptian, hindu, chinese, japanese and other mythologies on our planet teach as real values through fables, short stories, poems and even invocations
@@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it Not chinese, japanese and egyptian. I'm talking about Indo-European cultures, they even have extremely similar languages and details. They are literally related and all historians agree that all of them evolved from one common ancestor
Its many types of old Norse the reason why icelandic is identical to gammel norsk is because the Icelanders fled from norway under the genocide perpetrated by Olav den hellige and the chatolics of the world, half of norway disappeared most of them went to iceland. But we had several dialects just like we do now so did sweden all of them could comunicate with each other just like today. No matter which of these ancient dialects you spoke you understood all the other ones and if you can speak any of those dialects today you can speak all dielcts of old Norse which has many similarities with old English because of the dane law.. Snorre is a good source but hard to understand if you doesn't have kjenninger og heitis in your culture,, example Norse astrology, we got Karl's vogna (a constellation) but who is Karl with the wagon? Vogn Thor /wagon Thor is Odin, because Odin is the ås with the wagon. That's how kjenninger and heitis works in both our culture faith and skaldskaperi.. So we don't believe that their is a giant cow in space because that cow is not from the ætt (race /clan /nationaliy) but because you are the expert on this you can tell me what the cow eidhumla actually is, what ætt does audhumla belong to?... Hint it's in the Edda if you can answer without searching or reading Edda again it's very good
Curious if she actually watched the rest of the gameplay regarding Óðinn and Fenrir? She calls out the inaccuracy in the last minutes of this video stating that it’s actually Óðinn who faces off against Fenrir in the mythology. Ummm, ma’am, he does, later…
@@Poke-ladd it's alright, i dislike Valhalla very much since I loved Odyssey. Only reason i completed that game was to know the story , which is very disappointing because Odyssey DLCs had amazing story and the isu plot reveal
Take it with a grain of salt 😅 my friend as a pagan gow and Valhalla hav e their own interpretation, remember these are Christians make these games. It’s weird how no actual Norse or Germanic pagans were asked to help on the game none
Odin is fighting "someone"💀 I love learning about historical facts and really appreciate everyone who contributes towards teaching us but ma'am.... Do you not know what the game is about?! That "someone" is the protagonist,!
It is so weird and inconsistent that you chose to use 8 different stylings (clothing, hair tattoos, etc) for Eivor/Havi in your footage. I bet the expert didn't get that it was the same person they were watching.
To the lady who is talking about this, we all know that the Acear are powerful beings, godly beings, and they don't need huge palaces to show that off that. I like seeing it as God of War depicts it, they could very well just have normal Longhouses and Lodges. I like to see asgard like that.
gow ragnarok is what vikings tv series is. commercialized mainstream propaganda of norse mythology and the vikings. youd be surprised how many things they got wrong in GOW 2018 and Ragnarok except few things like Jormungandr and some visuals
An ok video but you really don't need to be an expert to know these things. I knew everything here and Norse myths are some of my less research areas so good "expert".
@@calcaleb7041 I wasen't talking about the game was i? The woman aka the "expert" only talks about shit that enyone with a brain and a little time can learn.
Already the first scene with fenris and Tyr is wrong because it norsk folketro which Snorre based he's skald skaperi on tyrs name is TY because he tyr (verb) that means he doesn't not speak he only acts and is where the saying action speaks louder than words originally came from. There is no place in norsk folketro (umbrella term for all hedendom that exists in norway and a school subject for kids exempt from xtianity on cultural and spiritual grounds) so it had to be fenris or an ås telling him to put the hand and Ty would "ty" which means to shut up and just do the action he was told to do do.. Ok ill continue watching
With all due respect, she just keeps telling stories about Norse, I mean, doesn't she be giving how accurate the game is, or how close it is? I saw her 2 videos, first of God of war Norse saga, and this one, in both of them just stories, very little review about game accuracy!?
I can never understand why Odin ever got the respect he does... dude represents some of the WORST qualities of Humanity. OBSESSION being the worst one for sure!
@The Ghost👻 I hope he does read it. He's an outblown pussy, not worth anyone's fear. When you really think about it, video games are the only place where he's really worth anything. Thor has all kinds of media singing praises to him. Thor even killed Kratos in a fair fight. If anything, Thor is someone to be afraid of.
No one believes in the Norse gods as actually gods, not no more in the modern world. We keep the stories for cultural, historical & understanding the human condition.
Always makes me laugh when experts are like "this didn't happen". Uh, duh. None of it did 🤣 Next youre gonna tell me Odin didnt speak english. He didnt speak at all cause hes not real😂
I'd very much like to see the North expert react to Mimir boat/sled stories in God of War/Ragnarok. It would be an excellent video!!!
actually GOW norse mythology is not as accurate as here, except look of some gods, tyr looks better in GOW but other things are written, interpreted worse in GOW
@Imotekh the Stormlord I wouldn't be looking for accuracy in those reactions - I'd be more looking for interest in interpretation.
She did actually. It was the first video I saw from this channel. The time frame on the video says it was made 2 months ago.
