Players have expressed disappointment and frustration with the recently introduced transmog feature in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
Transmog, which Ubisoft refers to as “change appearance”, is a mechanic that allows users to swap the stats and appearance of items. It’s a common feature found in many MMOs and RPGs, which gives players the opportunity to swap the look of the gear while making sure they don’t lose the perks of having the gear equipped.
This feature was previously available in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and fans have long requested it be added to the latest installment in the series. On Tuesday, Ubisoft finally added Transmog to Valhalla in the title update patch 1.2.0.
However, comments on the official Assassin’s Creed Valhalla subreddit suggest that many fans aren’t happy with the way it’s implemented.
Unlike most other titles and this game’s direct predecessor, using the transmog skill isn’t a menu option. Instead, players must visit Blacksmith Gunnar at the settlement and pay 50 Silver, a currency that can be purchased for real money via microtransactions.
While the process has caused anger, others are also upset that the change appearance option doesn’t provide a preview feature. It is also necessary to see a long dialogue for each element that users want to change.
