After over 100 hours I'm nearly done with Valhalla. Finished the main "Layla" story, killed all the Order members and Zealots, hunted down all the massive animals and completed I'd say about 90% of the mysteries and side quests. Just got the final area (Hampshire) to clear out and the Father to kill (who definitely won't be the king I'm sure) and then I can walk away from it.
Usually in these sort of massive open RPGs I find myself getting bored after 50 or so hours but I've really enjoyed this all the way through. The only major gripe I have, and it's the same with all AC games, is how much I hate the modern day stuff. I couldn't care any less, it kills any momentum to have to drop out of the historical setting and fart around in the present and the storyline is utterly baffling when you haven't played every single game. Much rather they made these just straight historical pieces.
