Yes... people are looking at it from a monotheistic (one god) point of view. Sovngarde is indeed based on Valhalla... as I understand it, it's name is associated with the word valour.

The Vikings had a polytheistic (several gods) religion...

Can anyone confirm to me that they believed the sky was held up by four gods called North, South, East and West?

The gods of East, West, North, and South were pretty much Roman gods. They had different names. they were called something along the lines of The God of the North, or something like that. But it shurtanly wasn't nordic or viking.
