I thought I'd make a thread about WHAT VIDEO GAMES folks are playing right now. I wanted to share my thoughts on ASSASINS CREED VALHALLA
Verdict: I HATED IT. It's the same game as always, but this time with vikings. Yup, if you LOVE these A.C. games, then you will probably love this one. It's more of the same. Feels more like a DLC re-skin than a new game to behonest. Also, the combat mechanics are just a bit boring imho. What's worse, it's the usual endless series of fetch quests. Uggh. I found it tedious and tiresome. Worse, it's buggy. Very buggy. If you LOVE this game, this series, etc. please do not take any offense to my thoughts on it. It's just not for me. On a positive note, I LOVED the music. Some of the best folks in norse music were involved in the soundtrack. I'm sure wads of folks think this is the best creed ever.

Microsoft buys ACTIVISION for $69 BILLION.
Yup. Now every Blizzard Activision game is now an Microsoft product. Call of duty an everything else that goes with it. Microsoft has always struggled to gain traction in the gaming space and now they don't have to try. They just spent major bank and bought up a major player.
