Shroud explains why Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla isn\u2019t his game of the year Ubisoft, shroudWith the hype around Assassin\u2019s Creed: Valhalla at an all-time high, gamers across the world are debating whether or not it\u2019s worthy of being called game of the year. Shroud, however, isn\u2019t convinced. [jwplayer JHqOrq6e] With Assassin\u2019s Creed: Valhalla finally dropping earlier in November, the gaming universe has went wild. The newest instalment of the popular franchise has been a while in the making, and for a lot of fans it\u2019s some welcome respite to a turbulent 2020. Across the board critics and gamers have praised the game\u2019s beautiful graphics and masterful storytelling, sparking discussion as to whether or not the game might be the best to be released this calendar year. Former CSGO pro player Shroud has now given his two cents, as to whether or not he thinks the game should be made game of the year. Shroud not convinced Valhalla deserves game of the year While he was playing Valhalla on Twitch, one member of the chat pressed him on the idea. As soon as he saw the message, though, he said: \u201cNo, absolutely not\u201d whilst laughing off the comment. He describes the direction of the game as being \u201ccash money\u201d, stating that \u201cthe direction of the game isn\u2019t to like, polish everything, be perfect, make sure all the lipsyncs are good, make sure all the animations are good\u201d He goes on to state that the devs could easily achieve a better game experience, but that just \u201d isn\u2019t the name of this game \u2013 the name of this game is to get something out there relatively quickly that people can spend hundreds of hours on.\u201d Instead, he cites God of War and Cyberpunk 2077 as game of the year worth games, despite the fact that Cyberpunk \u2018isn\u2019t even out yet\u2019. Shroud\u2019s experience of the game has hardly been overwhelmingly positive, as the popular streamer discovered a hilarious collection of bugs and glitches while playing. Though, even those he decided to laugh off while playing, and that\u2019s why people watch him \u2013 the unpredictable moments. While it may sound cynical, it appears that there\u2019s a good bit of logic to shroud\u2019s statement. Maybe as he progresses further into the game he\u2019ll change his mind, but currently he\u2019s determined that the idea of Valhalla as game of the year is laughable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
