Outside of them making the artstyle and name much worse this looks decent. Hope the switch version is good

I'm excited for this. Would be awesome if the Switch version runs competently enough... or even had maybe Pit from Kid Icarus as a playable character for a bonus exclusive. ha

seems heavily influenced by botw in a lot of aspects. i like the puzzle aspect but i don't think the rest of the game is for me :/

This really looks like someone applied an amateur cartoon mod over an Assassin's Creed game. Like, if you want to do the cartoony aesthetic go for it, but don't then apply Assassin's Creed lighting to it. The teaser from way back did a much better job art-wise.

Ubisoft tends to let you customize your UI in their games right?

It is messy, but if I can remove weapon/power and item UI elements in the bottom right and left of the screen that would go a long way (or other stuff like removing damage numbers and stuff).

I think it look great without that stuff.

The concept of the game is great, but there is something super off about the execution.

Lots of jank and lack of oomph in general I guess.

I like the world and the idea...But the gameplay and interface don't look so hot to me

I really wish the typography/UI wasn't so close to BOTW. It baffles me that you'd take uhhhh "heavy inspiration" from another game across all aspects: gameplay, graphics, and UI. This approach just enhances the appearance of a knock off.

Don't get me wrong, I'm really looking forward to the game. But jeez at least differentiate in the font department.

That forge seriously looked liked this game's equivalent of the divine beasts

so rifts instead of shrines and these dungeons instead of divine beasts. So aside from combat they also just copied BotW problems

It's obviously just a mashup of AC Odyssey and BotW but it looks pretty fun to me. Doubt I'll get it day one but I can definitely see myself playing this unless the reviews are awful.

Wooooooooow, they're not even trying to pretend that they're not copying BOTW wholesale. That's just shameless.

The title sucks too

Amusing that Nintendo basically made Assassins Creed : Zelda edition and now Ubisoft are returning the favour, but it does look a lot of fun. Quietly looking forward to this one.

Also , you could actually write the responses to a Ubi game thread before hand and not be too far off.

Entirely predictable.

huh, so it looks like the super attacks aren't cool down but rather you build up to them and then unleash them which is much better in my eyes

Why do you have a cursor in the skill tree screen in a console game? why?
Assassin's creed and Destiny 2 does the same thing. I just don't get it.
Who likes pointing a cursor with their gamepad? I really need to know.

Given that BOTW is totally not playable at all on PC, I can see this doing well. I kinda like it even. Looks charming.

Looks promising, but probably another year of polish is needed, I can see lots of jank and bloat that could be trimmed. Animations didn't look good at all.

I've played it. It's nice.

- combat is "just okay" I'd say, but active skills feel nice & powerful
- yes, it SCREAMS Zelda BOTW, gliding is relaxing and cool, climbing is tricky
- what was the best for me in the demo were all the various puzzles, this is the one element that was not really in BOTW in such form
- while exploring you always seem to see something interesting around
