![]() ![]() For those who don't know, Assassin's Creed in a collection of time travel stories. I'm one of those hardcore fans who has issue with having to choose between Kassandra and Alexios. So we knew that we wanted to do the same thing-we wanted to give you a choice." ![]() But the feature itself was really appreciated by a lot of people. Hardcore fans, who have an investment in how the Animus works with genetic memory and know you're supposed to be living the life of a specific ancestor, they took issue with that. "I think that even before Odyssey came out, we knew that would be a feature that people would like. "Sometimes you do things because you know players will really enjoy it and will appreciate it," McDevitt said. When designing this background for Eivor, it was decided that they'd be a character that the player could play as a man or a woman. And we decided, 'No, Eivor is like 26-27 when the game starts.' So already, everyone talks about how legendary Eivor is and there's a bit of a cool arrogance that comes with that but there's also a sense of humor and a bit of a leader who doesn't suffer fools lightly and maybe gets a little hot when things don't go their way, has a very tactical mind but is also a bit selfish-they want glory for him or herself, they want to be known and want to be honored as a brave and courageous warrior." "We typically start with a boy in their late teens and he's got some growing to do and you're going to see him make mistakes. "One of the things we wanted to do was start out with a character who's already an expert, who's already a legend, who people already have a deep respect for," McDevitt told me. All of this will shape the type of choices you'll be able to make. Before you even pick up the controller and start making dialogue choices, Eivor already has an established personality, set of morals, and aspirations. However, just like Kassandra and Alexios, Eivor isn't a blank slate protagonist. Regardless of whether you play as a man or woman, you're always playing as Eivor. Unlike Kassandra and Alexios in Assassin's Creed Odyssey, you're not picking between two different characters in Valhalla.
