So, padded with a lot of "free this camp" and "clear this part of the map".

Length isn't what makes a story good.

The two AC games where people complained the story was too long and monotonous? Great idea.

Gross. I feel like they only add the content bloat as a justification for the world size. I really enjoyed Origins but fell off the latter 2 before getting halfway.

Which is annoying cause the game world itself is usually pretty fun just to explore.

What? After all the story stuff was said and done in Valhalla, for me, it took me about 130 hours. It was stupidly long.

Tbh I'm more surprised someone cared enough to speedrun an AC game

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

If it's a game, someone will speedrun it. That time is down to 10h 42m 22s, by the way.

Valhalla base game + ragnarok took me over 80 hours. Amd I didn't do most of the side stuff. Mirage was about 20-25 hours, iirc.
