Thanks for the detailed response. I played the Stadia Demo and really enjoyed it, but did not explore that much. Are there hidden dungeons/caves or stuff like that?

Yeah the UI and the character designs are awful. The UI screams mobile title and the character design looks like they took the original trailer and then tried to make the Fenyx look more like a Fortnite character.
The vaults I talked about are the hidden dungeons, but they're not really hidden so to speak. There are MANY of them though.
There are also MANY puzzles. The vaults have the unique, longer puzzles. While the world map has the smaller puzzles. The smaller puzzles are probably the hidden stuff you're talking about.
Just unlocked a new area. The map might make you think the world isn't that big, but if you're someone who likes to explore, there's alot of ground to cover.
In terms of fast travel, you have your major points you can travel to but every vault that you complete turns into a fast travel spot as well. So you can definitely get around easy.
Thank you again. Game sounds great. From the small amount I played on Stadia I did like it and thought it looked good even though it was 1080p and has some compression issues. Now I need to decide to get the deluxe edition with the season pass or the regular game.
Amazon sent this out days early (PS5). I noticed a bit of screen tearing during the intro.
oh, there's a day-one patch. I thought I had it installed already.

Honestly to me it's no different than Borderlands humor which for me was grating at first, but won me over eventually. It's still hit or miss, but as long as the overall story is good and the game is fun I think it's fine to go with this style.
I feel like there aren't enough enemies attacking you at once though. Like the landscape mostly seems empty or something (not populated). I don't know if that would make me want the game more if there were more enemies, it's all I can think of though that I think this lacks as of right now.
I'm so pissed about this. The week before I found out Comcast was going to make datacaps a thing for the North East, I had called and changed our plan and I asked 3 fucking times if we had a data cap and the lady said no. Then a week later this news came out about the new data caps. So aggravating.
It's absolute scumfuckery, still don't really understand how it's legal.
Usually this would be my kind of game but the art style is awful (in my opinion)... so much so that it's putting me off.
I feel the same about the character art but I really did enjoy the demo nonetheless.
Have you tried it on Stadia?
Really on the fence with this. The Stadia version I enjoyed - but want to try it on PC or PS5 first.
£60 for an Ubisoft game which I KNOW will drop in a couple of weeks... but then again, I have Ubisoft+ on PC, so I can try it there. But there isn't anything quite like console gaming lol.
Decisions, decisions. May do the PC thing then buy it on PS5 in the sales at Christmas.

Are you digital only? Because the game can be had for about £45ish on PS5 physical.
I just saw SimplyGames have it for about £45 so I bit the bullet and ordered it. Until it arrives (seems a bit slow the post at the moment - had a controller shipped from them on Thursday via 1st class recorded and it arrived today) I can play the PC version.
PS - got the Disc version :)
Immortals Fenyx Rising doesn't have nearly as organic discovery as Breath of the Wild, but it more than makes up for its shortcomings with gorgeous design, a witty script, and excellent combat.

My review:
Game has some issues but god damn. Most fun I have had with a Ubi game this year by far https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdcXP3MJ-FA
It's actually one of my favorite games of this year. Noon over, embargo is past, so- Great game, strong recommend. The balance of puzzles and combat is perfect and there's great variety in each. It's a really fun world to explore, too.
To mainline with a healthy amount of side quest stuff, probably 60 hours. Cut that in half if you just do main quests. And of course, you can fight Tyhpon from the jump if you wish.
Couldn't disagree more. It "looks" like BOtW and definitely borrows ideas from it but it's anything but cheap.
If anything the production values seem to indicate a bigger budget than BOTW if you're really going to go there........

Crap I might need this sooner than expected but I don't think I have time for it yet.
I wonder if my son can handle it on his own

Fantastic! And it's the way to play it. Minimal visual hit for a near consistent 60FPS.
Thanks!
I was just kind of debating whether I might want to go PC even though I only have a 1070 just so I could reduce resolution to ensure max framerate and detail levels.
I haven't played BotW with expectations that it will be rereleased for whatever the next Switch product comes out. But now I feel guilty for playing this first as some of these reviews seem promising. Hmm.
Note: I do understand how dumb I actually am.

As someone that has reviewed every Ubi game this year, don't play them on PC. Valhalla and Legion were incredibly broken, and from what I've read, they still are.
In a few years time, there's gonna be many more. This is honestly just the new Metroidvania.
This game will actively suffer because reviewers think it's their duty to dock points because some mechanics are borrowed from breath of the wild. The entire gaming industry is based on this sort of copying and yet it isn't as heavily lambasted as it is here. Sends the message that Nintendo is sacred and can't be copied or else.
The way y'all faithfully do this you would think there's a bunch of botw devs on here
