Ubisoft is adding level-scaling to Assassin's Creed Valhalla. The next planned update for the Viking action roleplaying game will include five options for letting your game's enemies grow in power with your Eivor..
I hated this in Odyssey. I will hate it in this game also, and opt to leave it on default or whatever it was before the patch.
Seems like a cool thing to be optional. Like exploration mode. Or lootscores in Breakpoint.
I feel these things are kind of 75% successful but never quite as good as doing one thing ‘right.’
For what it’s worth, I always thought the level scaling in Guild Wars 2 was really good. E.g. champion mobs are going to be a challenge even if you technically out-level them. Keeps content in lower level zones relevant!
Valhaya is a weird game. High quality, well made, interesting areas, interesting setting,… kind of boring to play.
