Never had that problem. As long as frame rates are constant I'm happy with what I have I suppose. Maybe it's an issue when playing multiplayer games, but since I'm not into that it's not much of an issue.

So... some 30 mins of gameplay managed to sneak away. Oops! Wonder whose head's going to roll for this It features female Eivor and there are a few cutscenes, bust most were skipped through. My opinion on Eivor's VA so far: might need to get used to her a bit, but to be fair I can't really blame her for that. I do think her voice suits the part. Good pronunciation too, so I don't need to use subtitles. Btw I really dislike having to use subtitles, because they're distracting to me. So far it definitely seems like a game that I want to play Link.

To be honest, I'm not so sure that I like what I see (and hear).

I've always been the odd one out, so I'm going to give this a go. Want to form my own opinion, so I'm not going to burn this down completely until I'm actually able to play it.

I have a feeling that this might be a somewhat rushed. Basically just a skin. Also being able to switch gender on the fly sounds like both will be carbon copies and it's unlikely that there's any reason to replay using different Eivor.

Will see... Anything to keep my mind from things is good to me. I have more faith in this than in so called friends...

Apparently AC Valhalla's expansions will take you to Ireland and Paris. The season pass also includes an exclusive quest: The legend of Beowulf. Link

I'm not really into vikings, lack of time, too
Wouldn't have bought Hellblade because of it, but it was a gift.
Will see how you and others think about it.

All right. I guess you weren't much of a fan of Wickie the Viking as a kid either? Can't look a gift horse in the mouth I guess.

I'm not so sure about this... Definitely not going to pre-order.
I must say that I do miss Desmond Miles story arc.

Well, since I already pre-ordered... I guess I'll have to stick with it I doubt it will beat my experience with Odyssey, but I do at least want to give it a go. It'll be nice to see a bit of Scandinavia, Great Britain and Ireland at least. Places I still hope to properly visit one day. Made city trips to Dublin, London and Oslo in the past. Went on vacation to England twice. Visited the Cotswolds on the first trip. And the second time made a tour to the Peak District and the Lake District and went to Scotland two years ago with my sis. Still would love to see more of Scandinavia and Ireland.

There's a chance that it might be bundled with CPU or GPU so that's also one reason I'm not going to pre-order. Haven't really travelled in Scandinavia much. When I was a (really, really) small kid I visited Visby (Sweden) and Stockholm (Sweden) when I was polytechnics student. Never been to UK.
