So just thought I'd set this up now so we are ready to go when the game becomes playable in a few days. As per the Odyssey thread this thread WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS.  Edit to include Skill Tree

Not yet playing but some useful, yet spoilery information. It's the largest AC game, with 140km² across all 5 maps of Norway, England, Vinland (North America), Asgard, Jotunheim.
Norway is the size of Skyrim map but with more water. England is the largest at 120km². Also, England zones are split by season.
Asgard/Jotunheim show up in "dreams". When you start the game you can let the game decide Eivor's gender that means you play female Eivor in the real world, but male Eivor in Asgard/Jotunheim. The super spoiler plot reason: Eivor is women who is a reincarnated male Isu from Asgard. So while dreaming of the past, she appears male. Exploiting weakpoints allow you tackle enemies at higher power (level) than you...as long as you can avoid getting hit. Video with all abilities in the game

Video with all abilities in the game I am going to let the Animus decide, from what I have read previously and from your post it seems the best way to do it.

Well in a meta sense, I was expecting them to keep their word about everyone liking Layla, and yet not only does she not redeem herself but she releases a new threat into the world. And the Assassins are working with them. I really hope future games don’t have us forced to be him. If anything we need to play as Templars now, since they are the defenders of humanity after the Assassins turned their backs. But we won’t, since that requires good storytelling. And Ubisoft has proven they are incapable of that.

But if you think she's responsible of everything when Kassandra gave her the staff and pushed her into that direction *shrug*.

But if you think she's responsible of everything when Kassandra gave her the staff and pushed her into that direction *shrug*. Sympathize is not the same as like. And hard to sympathize when she listens to a guy she knows isn’t trustworthy in a setup exactly the same as the one Juno did with Desmond. Good point. They managed to ruin the Eagle Bearer yet again. And this being the people everyone said would save the franchise. I hate being right.
Also what’s your opinion on us playing as the straight up villains now?
Edit: The only hope for the story now is what I’ve said for a while: then altering time. I hope that’s what they are hinting will happen with Desmond and Layla’s finale in this game.

Eivor's friends: Eivor, what the hell took you so long to come to the rescue?
Eivor:...But...pretty sights... hunting...Maybe more hunting than I should...And treasure blips on the map... Not my fault!
Btw, Dazk, from the starting area I get a feeling you will love this one.

About Romance options I can't believe you can be an asshole to your bro Sigurd and steal his wife. I guess that little look I saw in a cutscene early in the game wasn't me having the wrong impression. I'm totally doing it.  Despite him being such a bro. Doing so kinda piss him off and he has a "3 strikes" system that affect the game ending too...

Apparently they break up at some point, so just wait until then to begin the romance and it doesn’t hurt your standing it’s him.

I read conflicting comments about doing it after their break up not causing standing issues.

Ok, game, let's make one thing clear. That elk has antlers. I shot him right between them. WHY THE F**** you don't give them as loot? Only one out of 5 elks in Norway has detachable antlers? Cool fact I guess 😜

So first glitch jumped into some water to loot a chest and couldn't get out, game put an ice roof over the hole!!!!! Thanks you Quick Save (F5).  Feel bad killing the little wolves.  Anyone else tried using FRAPS? I can't get it to work with the game either to take screenshots or have the FPS display on screen.

So I guessed what you did as kid Eivor determines which MC you'll play. I chose to do one option and didn't do the other. Both options can be done of course and then I supposed it'll be a rng roll with the Animus. I got female Eivor and it's a Animus choice.  Edit. And I do get to play on 10 Nov. If this game is on Steam. I'll be playing on 11th Nov. Steam only care about one time zone; theirs. Anyway, Eivor keeps saying she has to do one thing, I'm saying; LOOOT!!! Must get the loot!!!

Basically viking Eivor is female by canon and the Animus chooses the proper gender. But...

Is just saw a romance cutscene and that was Baldur's Gate 3 EA level of  . Arms going through the head kind of stuff. The game probably needed a few more weeks in polishing.

Yeah I am having some graphics issues where the scene sort of gets a red and blue tone washed through everything, maybe my brightness is too high. The game gave me an option to chnage it at the start but I cannot find it now. Does wnyone know where it is in the settings? ALSO HOW THE HELL DO YOU DISMOUNT THE HORSE!!!!!!

Ok I like the improvement regards ship crew. They help Eivor when she's fighting on the shore by shooting arrows. How many times have I wished the crew would help Kassandra when she's fighting along the shore or nearby but they did nothing. This is a great improvement.
