Assassin's Creed: Valhalla had all the elements I thought I'd love—Vikings, epic battles, and a vast world to explore—but somehow, it just didn’t click for me. While the setting was beautifully done, the RPG mechanics felt out of place for an *Assassin’s Creed* game. The gear system, skill trees, and endless side quests pulled me away from what I used to love about the series. As much as I wanted to immerse myself in Eivor's Viking saga, the RPG-heavy direction left me feeling disconnected from the core Assassin’s Creed experience.
