History Teacher On "Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Trailer" From Ubisoft (Reaction)

Hello and welcome everyone, today we are going to see a

trailer

for the Assassin's Creed Valhalla game for players who probably know the Assassin's Creed game series. It's an open world game where you can go around buildings and whatever, and the game is pretty historically accurate, most of them of course, you can't be 100% accurate in every game etc, but for me It's interesting how video games really convert or attract more people to enjoy and love the story and also to discover something new, so although I'm interested in what the game is like and I'm probably going to buy it, we can see from the title Valhalla that it will be something about the Vikings and the topic about the Vikings is something that I really love and I especially enjoy Norse mythology, Odine, Tour and everything related to Ragnarok 1 and so on, but let's analyze the progress through a historical perspective.

Ubisoft and indeed Blizzard, now the gaming nerd, speaking of me, always make good progress. I didn't see the

trailer

, but I think it's going to be pretty interesting, so let's jump in. They're heartless, the Norse light, wonderful, wonderful, ordained by God, that's probably strange in the big audits because Odin is always depicted as a man with a long beard and he is. the main god in Norse mythology and he is the god of wisdom of death and everything and he is always the one who looks most like the one who had the most respected speck in Norse cultures spar barians some wars look beautiful For the Scandinavians, The geography of Scandinavia is really interesting because they have what they call fuels.

I'm not sure if it's the same in English, but it's like most of the Viking settlements were inside those fjords because the fjords are surrounded on three sides with land, so they would put settlements like inside the fjords so they could defend them more easily and see if the enemy comes with long boats and so on, of course the Vikings known for their long boats could travel. with them to England and Iceland and this, let's see, is probably a murder in England and a blind murder, of course the Vikings are known for four raids, especially in England, but they also went to Russia and, as far as I know, most of the slaves they brought.

Back in the Scandinavian territories there were slaves from Russia from today's Russia and they were also III. He was once in Istanbul, present-day Istanbul and they were also in the Mediterranean and also in Aya Sofia and I saw some small rooms inside Aya Sofya. where some of the Vikings who were there, as they say, scribbled his name on a wall, so it's interesting to look at, he will tour the lands of England, yes, they will never defend, they will never love, the time has come to talk to them. a language that they will understand I am interested in speaking to them in a language that they will understand ah Alfred Alfred Alfred the Great so the timeline will be around the 9th century when the Danes invaded England and there was a great back and forth - in addition to King Alfred the Great, who had some victories, had some defeats, etc., but actually the eastern parts of England today, if you can imagine, the islands fell under the control of the Danes and then many other Scandinavians, like the Norwegians, etc., came and they joined the The Danes and actually it was also famous from two to four or at that time the Danish war, the Danelaw.

I think it's called Danelaw, where Danish law was actually in that part of the east of England, today Anglo-Saxon law dominated, so what a very interesting war, of course, the Vikings with their exes. The interesting thing with the egg from England back then, if you saw it during the battles, now just a second, do they look like Roman soldiers to you? China or that's because Britain or the British Isles were subjugated by the Romans during the Roman Empire and then the Anglo-Saxons and so on, they actually continued to use Roman weapons and so on, that's why you attack the representations of that time, England, let's call it that or the British armies, you can see a There were many similarities between the Roman warriors and the Anglo-Saxon warriors back then.

Also the interesting thing about Norse mythology was that they were very oriented towards war or warriors, so the saying goes that, like with mythology and their religion, they had half, I think half. Half of the bravest warriors who fought on a battlefield and who fell on a battlefield would be taken by Valkyries to Valhalla, so the Great Hall of warriors where Odin presides and they would train their drinking, their fighting there and so on and then they would prepare for Ragnarok Ragnarok which is the end of the world where all the gods would fight each other as the bad guys and the good guys and then the world would end so they were quite motivated as warriors to give their best yes on the battlefield and in fact, One interesting thing with the Vikings is also that day, although they had tactical retreats, but not always but almost always they fought to the last man or Dean Odin is with us.

There we have the connections with Assassin's Creed and stuff. So people will probably play as Vikings, not Vikings, but Anglo-Saxons, okay, I definitely know what game I'm going to play next, so wow, what a trailer if you want the original trailer without the interruptions of my intro etc. I'll put a link in the description below and something else, you know, probably Vikings is also a great series because it goes into depth into the culture, the rituals, the gods and everything, not just the fights, so you can watch that series . What I wanted to point out also is that female warriors in Viking culture were actually not that common, women went with the men on raids, but predominantly the Vikings knew that they had a gender structured society in which they knew that women were They were mainly in charge of the housework and the farms, etc., and the men went on raids and didn't really have much of a say in the law and the government, etc., but they actually sometimes joined the man as well. in the raids, but they would be in the rear and they would try to colonize the territory where the Vikings were going, they would build farms and they would also try to assimilate the new slaves that the men would bring and they would also try to, you know, produce food for the warriors like to go. beyond the front line and they were actually very respected in society because they were seen as the ones who gave birth to new Vikings, new warriors and also in mythology.

You can see that I don't know a third or something like that of the gods is also feminine and also the Valkyries are also feminine so they had respect for women more than in the rest more than in the rest of Europe but as Christianity it also moved to Scandinavia , yes that God was wrong and also women could also divorce and they could also own land if the man dies, but it's very interesting from a historical point of view, the Vikings and Norse mythology, so yes, it's kind. It's interesting how video games really make people love the story and enjoy it, so I'm really excited about the new Assassin's Creed, so yeah, see you.
