Speaking of minigames, I hate orlog.
I wanted to skip the whole thing but oh surprise you need to win a match for a certain important thing. Fuck.
some of those side missions that not even missions get you by surprise there... they make you laugh or sad even ... like boy with 3 friends...
..imagine you have those 3 friends , you just badass for life
and i mean RDR2 has big part of my gaming time last year or so , but even RDR2 has nothing on that. and all other small details that you getting while just exploring .

Lost 3 hours of progress yesterday. I think the game save was corrupted on the Series X. Might be a good thing as i might enjoy a break from the 50+ hours i've already put in.

Yeah, I haven’t touched it since the first match in Norway. Just too time consuming and not interesting. Definitely not Gwent.

Yes just 2 great swords here as well even after almost 90 hrs exploring looting everything and 2 big axes and just 2 spares as well, byt i found lots armor as well , but its strange with armor its about 6 more types from your starting one , so 6 or 7 even and then to collect them in pairs of 5 its so hard and then upgrade everything, if i dont have still all those pairs after 90 hrs then when you change armor? NG+ maybe or smt.
Anyway now my 2 new fav weapons are spares, fully upgraded , when you come at those enemies with short weapons they just dont have a chance. But yh game just give you 2 every large weapon type, more small axes but whats the point in short weapons later in game?

It isn't key to progressing the story I hope? I can't stand that shitty minigame.

Realising that the female Eivor is the canon choice is a gut punch. Hell, my male Eivor keeps getting called 'her' and 'she' lmao. Playing the game further makes it obvious as to why but these developers are gutless. If you are going to force a female choice do it proudly and not like cowards hiding it behind marketing and PR.
Beautiful game though:

What do I do after the soma quest? No new quests poped up I thought I had to get my camp to level 2 but that did nothing. I have contracts from the little dude but I'm sure they must be a main quests

camp ups level when you build new buildings for people, allways same up to lvl 6 i think. nothing changes there how your camp levels up.What do I do after the soma quest?

with randvi you can pick new are that you will want to like clear , you can pick what you want but best is start from lowest levels and go up same time level up yourself power . you can change those areas when you like its not fixed, just go to randvi and change .
its nice how your char allways uses enemies weapons to finish him off, 2 hammers allways works well in head..boom
bot back to some snow areas again .. aahh i missed snow
snowww...its amazing

Eivor is a female name in Scandinavia. From what I've read Eivor has never been used for males. It's like making a game about an English medieval knight and calling both the male and female protagonist Susan. That would be ridiculous, but because the first name Eivor sounds masculine outside of Scandinavia Ubisoft thought they could get away with it. Or they didn't realize this until it was too late to change it.

Yeah, I've had my male Eivor get called a she or her a couple of times. Really sucks how sloppy that is. Also, it's weird at just how much female warrior "representation" is in this game. It's like 50% in some battles, which is just stupid and ridiculous.
that Vinland is nice place .. some change at least. nice fresh clothes, no weapons.

I don't know what it is about Valhalla, but I'm not enjoying myself at all. I've platinumed both Origins and Odyssey, spent 100+ hours in both games and expected to enjoy Valhalla just as much. That's why I even got the Gold Edition. But for the past few hours I've been constantly tinkering with the HDR/brightness/contrast settings because I can't get the game looking right: it's either too washed out or too contrasted. (Which is ridiculous since HDR in PS5 games like Astro's Playroom and Sackboy's Adventures but also in Netflix is absolutely perfect). I don't like the main character at all, the beginning is far too slow, the combat system feels slow paced and cumbersome, the new skill tree system is a chore to use. And the screen tearing in 60fps is annoying as hell compared to Orgins and Odyssey which were perfecly locked to 30fps.
So far I'm rather disappointed by AC:V and it's killing my enthusiasm to keep playing and get out of Scandinavia.

Another oversight. Switching bows is tedious so I just stick with my trusty Hunter bow.

because you equip just one at time, same with any weapons i think. no switching between them. i never needed any other bow than very early bow, all because you need to choose which one you will upgrade as you cannot upgrade them all.
when you a viking but allways wanted to be that cool indian with cool leather clothes

Not the main story, but if you want to chase the order, you'll need to win at least 1 game against a nun.

Is there a preferred order to doing things to have the story be most cohesive? More specifically, I just unlocked
, but have 3 remaining alliances to go, the ones with the highest power level requirements - these have become a bit of a slog, by the way. The stories involved are fine, but it all feels so checklisty looking at that map, if that makes sense. Anyway, should I go there as soon as I can, or at the end of the alliance map? Also, does it matter when I do the Asgard missions, story/lore-wise?

U can do that spoiler at any moment really there is no level assigned towards it when u get there u will understand it. to 100% it, it takes you about
3 hours if you are slow probably 2 hours if you are fast
About the god worlds, the idea is to do them in between however i did them in the same manner as i did the god worlds in origin and odyssey so basically at the end. I kinda liked it that way because u can go through it entirely. If you want to do that however i would heavily recommend to wait until the very end and do them all in one go. However u can do them in between for sure if you want however if you enter it at a to low level u will get steamrolled most likely by some encounters as they where pretty fucking hard "specifically one encounter" ( but then i played on hardest mode ).
So it's up to you tho.

I'm not sure if this work for you but I've got some weird bug where HDR doesn't work properly for this game unless I disable HDR on the input in my TV settings and then reenable it. On my TV (Philips Android TV) this option is in 'general settings' and is called HDMI Ultra HDI (or something similar). Not sure if the issue is to do with the game, the Xbox or my TV but that fixes it. I have to repeat the fix every time I revert back to the Xbox menu or even press the Xbox button so the overlay comes up. It's very strange. Happens with Modern Warfare too but in that case, I only have to do it once.
Anyway...probably won't work for you but would be interesting to me if it did.

I'm 25 hours in and I didn't know I could change Eivor's outfit? Is there a store or something where I purchase new clothes?

You find new armor pieces to do that. Tattoos and such can be changed when you get the tattoo shop in your settlement.
yh as said armor , found all around the world when you exploring places and there some loot is marked as armor icon, thats where some random new armor will be, in tottall i think its 7 types at least i found that many in my 100 hr play . but i dont know how to get them all in 5 peaces , i still couldnt found not one besides your first armor that would be all 5 peaces. so for me all other armors are just useless, if you will just change them when find then sure thats cool, but then you need to think which one you will upgrade, as recourses will be so hard to get
raven clan armor now maxed fully but no other armor is upgraded at all as still not all 5 peaces of them found

I can't get over how beautiful this game is on PS5. Constantly stopping to take it all in. Amazing art direction.
110hrs 66% , 310 power. some of those teritory cleaning maning allies missions are way better and more interesting for me then main stuff. and some are so long with so many dialogs and cutscenes just amazing how much stuff they put there and how much effort it needed. some of those really like touch you deep, like makes you think whats really important for you and why you doing that stuff. amazing. still couple large areas on highest power lvl left to do, not many skills left to open , but that power will go still some up maybe i will max it even. i could say im purelly vikining in this game , not Assassining at all. i mean now stealth is too easy , so just cutting heads hands legs and impaling everyone around me . so good that its just slow enough not too fast movements not too fast weapon swings. feels great. 2 spears just impaling anyone in series of hits .. just amazing.

Getting close to 70 hours and the repetition is starting to wear on me. Honestly I don't think this game even has a story, it's just a series of random events that happen. You have things that feel like they are building to something, like your jarl going nuts and needing rescue, then it's kinda resolved and hours later not yet even mentioned again, back to the random people and events. Game is weird.
