I saw some of the gameplay. Is there a reason why she has her hair draped around the left of her neck? Why not have it different from what Kassandra had? Or is that just one of the different hairstyles the player can choose? You can choose hairstyles. I'm guessing they did that one as default "because Vikings show".

I just realized that the game probably doesn't have overpower abilities if normal abilities use adrenaline. I'm wondering if we will have to find specific books of knowledge to unlock abilities (i.e. find 3 "kick" books of knowledge") or if it's a generic items and you can use them to unlock/upgrade any of the abilities. I don't think this encounter will be typical of much of the gameplay. I can't imagine most of the game being so supernatural, given what they'd said. We'll see. The first reveal of the game gave me the impression Eivor was a bit crazy. This encounter kinda confirmed it. She inhaled something right before the fight started (made her cough), the whole blue fire, ghost dash and lighting are probably hallucinations. So supernatural but not real-real, just semi-real because it hurt still. So like the Apep drug sequence in Origins. Oh joy. Speaking of the abilities, the description says they are only for melee and ranged abilities so goodbye any hope I had of the abilities I enjoy being available.

Also, whomever was playing totally didn't know how to parry/block. It was painful watching them keep burning through their dodge stamina over and over and not block anything.

Speaking of the abilities, the description says they are only for melee and ranged abilities so goodbye any hope I had of the abilities I enjoy being available. They were split into melee and ranged categories in Origins/Odyssey as well. It's the categories for the slots and melee covered everything that didn't require a bow. There are like 4 more melee abilities to discover in the leaks and about 1 more for the bow based on the UI. One of the melee abilities should be beast master as it was confirmed to be in and it's not in the leaks. Saying that, there is an ability icon duplicated on both side, so the whole thing might not be final anyway. Also, some of the Odyssey combat abilities seems to have been moved to the passives skill constellation or other features. Like Rations replace second wind and the passive sprint attack is kinda bull rush without the knockdown and locked animation. Speaking of skill constellation, the stun finishers have to be unlocked and there is one for the bow (Bow Stun Finisher).

Okay, so Cordelia is one of the 3 daughters of King Lerion (also known as King Leir - Shakespeare). ReignLeir's story was first recorded in Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain. In it, Leir is part of the dynasty of Brutus of Britain and succeeded to the throne after his father Bladud died while attempting to fly with artificial wings. The dating is inexact, but Geoffrey made Bladud a contemporary of the biblical prophet Elijah. Leir was given the longest reign of Geoffrey's kings, ruling for 60 years.[4] Geoffrey claimed he was the eponymous founder of Leicester in England.[5][6][7] AbdicationLeir was said to have been the end of Brutus of Troy's male line of descent, siring three daughters: Goneril, Regan, and Cordelia. As he neared his death, he divided his kingdom among them. Goneril and Regan flattered their father and, at the advice of Leir's nobles, were married off to the Dukes of Albany and Cornwall, respectively. Cordelia, despite being her father's favourite, refused to flatter the king, feeling that he should not need to make special assurances of her love, and was given no land to rule. King Aganippus of the Franks courted and married Cordelia, despite Leir's refusal to pay a dowry.[4] Leir then gave Goneril and Regan half his kingdom, planning to bequeath them the remainder at his death; instead, his sons-in-law rebelled and seized the whole of it. Duke Maglaurus of Albany, Goneril's husband, maintained Leir with a retinue of 60 knights, but his wife reduced this by half after two years. Leir then fled to Regan, who reduced his entourage to only five men. Returning to Albany and pleading with Goneril, Leir was left with a single knight for protection.[8] RestorationAt this point, Leir feared both his older daughters and fled to France.[8] He sent Cordelia a messenger when he was outside her court at Karitia. She had him bathed, royally clothed, and assigned a fittingly large band of retainers. He was then officially received by the king and made regent of France, with the Frankish nobles vowing to restore him to his former glory.[9] Leir, Cordelia, and her husband invaded Britain and successfully overthrew his other daughters and sons-in-law. Leir ruled three years and then died. Cordelia succeeded him and buried him in an underground shrine to the god Janus beneath the River Soar near Leicester—allegedly the current site of the city's Jewry Wall.[10] An annual feast was held nearby in his honour.[11]

Going by the The Daughters of Lerion tag, the other two sisters are probably in the game as well. In some ways.
Hopefully, there isn't too many Shakespeare references in the game.

The skill tree in Odyssey had Hunter(Ranged), Warrior(Melee), and Assassin(Stealth). This one only seems to have melee and ranged. I'm mostly just sad since it seems with them adding social stealth back it might mean they eliminated stealth abilities besides that.

Basically asked if he could answer anything about the modern day story/characters, how much control we have over Eivor's character in terms of customization/roleplaying, and romances.

The abilities are split based on which of the "ability pad slots" you can set them in. The stealth ones went into melee slots in Odyssey. There will be less active ability options compared to Odyssey it seems, but the "active passives" (sprint attack, stun finishers, bow/melee combos, etc) will compensate for that. Even the raven, bear and wolf passive "tree" aren't hunter/melee/stealth oriented. Wolf covers everything: defenses, ranged, stealth and melee weapons.

Well, in 4 days we're going to have a tidal wave of media footage from this game (assuming more doesn't leak between now & then), so we'll know soon enough what we can & can't do in this one.

Not really a compensation when they take things I like and replace them with things i wouldn’t be using like those finishers.

azarhal What was in the video? Could you give us a little synopsis since it was taken down? Sorry, I was still watching, taking notes and pretending I'm working at the same time (I'm back at the office). I was lucky the video fully downloaded. Most of the video is a boss fight. It is set before the siege one going by Eivor power level and the quest tracker. Feels like Odyssey special boss fights (the hunts or cyclopes). It "unlock" a mystery for East Anglia once you win. For a game that is supposed to be more grounded than Odyssey, that boss fight had a crazy amount of magical stuff going on. Blink-teleporting boss. Magical blue flame stopping you from leaving the "arena". The boss can summon lightnings too. And I think the person you fight is dead already (based on dialogues) but there is a corpse post-fight so... Some other stuff The Thurisaz rune (the "almost a P" one) is clearly used to indicate certain special attacks. Probably unblockable ones. You can stun bosses if they run out of stamina and then deal lots of damage to them. You can use shields (they don't in the fight, but you can see a light shield in the weapon inventory) They showed the Ability panel. You have to find Books of knowledge to get/unlock abilities. Can only slot 8 of them (4 ranged, 4 melee). The books are usually in heavily guarded areas like monasteries and military camps. There is a wheel to select between the torch, fishing, hood, horn, calling mount and other things. edit: people are saying this is a newer build from the last leak as the menus are slight different in some places. and mirror: God damn teleporting hate that!!!!!! Not a fan of those drawn out fights either I hope there are few like the Minotaur etc. in Odyssey.

Yeah - game developers should really let teleporting enemies disappear from the face of gaming. It's so damned annoying.

I'm wondering if we will have to find specific books of knowledge to unlock abilities (i.e. find 3 "kick" books of knowledge") or if it's a generic items and you can use them to unlock/upgrade any of the abilities. This seems to imply (two of the same book improves that ability) that the books are for specific abilities. If we have to run around finding them at different locations that could be tedious, was not a fan of the buying books to improve knowledge in The Witcher 1 so I especially hope we don't have to pay for them.

If we have to run around finding them at different locations that could be tedious, was not a fan of the buying books to improve knowledge in The Witcher 1 so I especially hope we don't have to pay for them. I get that this is how they motivate you to explore, but yeah, not a fan of tying your main abilities to this. It looks like you'll have to get them out of heavily guarded areas... Wow, medieval brits took their reading seriously...

"Heavily guarded" The are clearly in the equivalent of the "nation chest" (of Odyssey), but act like the (tomb) hidden skill point monuments in term of "find me". I get the feeling you receive some early in the game. It's probably more the upgrades that will require "hunting down" (we all know some website will have the full list of where to find them 2 days before the game release).

Pedro @99pedromiguelVery simple trick really. In origins you can see the game freezes for a frame or two when you hit. That gives the impression of the blade getting stuck in the body, giving it weight. In the new gameplay, it just Gomes straight trough... James @lazerzzhdTHIS. I knew there was something going on and that explains it. I reckon if you added that effect to Valhalla you’d get the same, or at least a much more satisfying fight animation. Darby McDevitt @darbymcdevittWay ahead of you...

Jesper Kyd @jesperkyd Thanks to @ubisoft @assassinsfr for this honor. Had a great time hanging out with @gtv_fr and talking about my music for @assassinscreed. It was amazing to hear from one of my musical heroes @jeanmicheljarre #assassinscreed #ezio #ubisoft #ubisoftmusic
