Assassins Creed Valhalla - What Did You Do Today Spoiler Edition

Damn there was what could have been a skin over the area the gold icon was showing but at that time I had the Brightness and contrast too high and couldn't see it properly. Thanks for the tip.

Re the Elk great that'll be frustrating. When I go back to that place I was asking about above I might spend some time hunting there.

Hey I am just about to head off with Sigurd and Basmin, do you get to come back to the village and finish stuff there after that?

Thanks

Yeah the Raven is almost useless, I too am using Odin sight way more.

And yes I too am not the greatest exponent of head shots and I am hopeless at using that bow with the ring sighting thing.

Thought I'd give exploring a break and actually complete that first main quest...



(... and damn can that old woman in the village drink! )

Glad it's not just me 

No idea how much I've played because Ubisoft Connect doesn't seem to be tracking my hours, but I've mainly been exploring Norway. I read on a tips article that so I've stopped roaming around for now in order to at least get to that point. I really miss not being able to

I attacked several towns/forts, raided a small island, won a flyting contest, lost a drinking contest, picked up two abilities, picked up one floating piece of paper (and gave up on the second), and seem to keep running out of arrows. Also explored a couple of stave churches.

I'm enjoying it, though. The animations are a little janky in my opinion, and Eivor seems to lose her gruff voice randomly, but otherwise I can't complain about the gameplay so far.

I let the Animus choose Eivor's gender and I haven't had male Eivor yet.

Not going to read any of the entries, but I got stuck with the "your download is bugged please spend another 40 hours downloading the game again" issue for I tried to repair my game and each time I was having to download more and more of the game so I just removed it and started over.

It took me 4 tries to finally win that drinking contest. I thought - this is the tutorial game, it should be eaaaashiiiiiittttt.

Haven't tried the dice game yet. I watched a couple of videos and thought eeehhh, maybe I'll pick it up later.

Also passed the flyting. At least that's easier than the drinking...

I'm hoping someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong here, but (lure) whistling doesn't work for me. Whistling to summon the horse works fine, but the short lure whistle doesn't get anyone's attention.

Yes, I have the hidden blade and saw the pop-up tutorial. I'm several hours past that now.

Could it be distance? Sometimes I've to whistle four times to get the fella to move.

It looks like a restart fixed it... or just being in a new location. Or both.
