Anyways, there's some vaults that require the use of one of the bird's abilities, so if I would suggest folks get the bird ASAP, and then get the ability in the tree as soon as you can.
I got into the vault I guess by sort of cheesing it (used my horse as a weight for the door puzzle) but you can't complete at least one vault without it.

One of the Fresco puzzles is busted. There is one near a pond not too far from Aphrodite where you encounter two Gorgons and a Minotaur.
Because of the water around the Fresco trying to push pieces clips with the water causing a collision detection issue and you get stuck in a looping animation of trying to push and not pushing it making it unsolvable.
Gonna save the game and quit out and the reload and see if this fixes the problem or this something that will require a patch.

Put like 8 hours into the game so far, combat is fun but shallow. The exploration and puzzles are great so far though, there's usually a small puzzle related to most things I've explored. If you enjoyed breath of the wild this game is a no brainer to pick up. Glad I didn't touch watch dogs legion or Valhalla and went for this game. I hope this does decent to warrant a sequel.
If it's the one I'm thinking of I just completed it without any issues, so you may have just been unlucky unfortunately.
I love how clean and sharp the game looks. Stadia demo was nothing compared to how the game looks on a competent PC. Difficulty is way too low though and I already started on hard. Unfortunately they locked the hardest difficulty behind NG+. A real shame. It's not like I want Sekiro-esque challenge but this is way too easy.
It's also fascinating how this Ubisoft team gets so many things right already while the AC team wouldn't. Or how they work out a camera that doesn't change and tilt aggressively around once it hits and obstacle, something Japanese developers doesn't seem learn.
In games where almost every movement and action is camera-dependent, I really like when it doesn't change erratically (like in every Souls game when you get close to a wall...) and I keep the same field of view and overview a few seconds before my character gets behind a wall.
I really like the (exaggerated) animation, too. They convey so much fun and power and the underlines the lack of seriousness in the story, the whole game:
However, I don't know why some devs still think its cool to put a fuckton of graphics settings into one setting. "Effects" bascially handles clouds, water, fog and other post process effects. WHY THOUGH? Yeah, just let us put EVERYTHING into one option while we're at it. Who cares? Just call it "graphics" and give us three presets. Who needs scaleability on a PC anyways... I also hated that in The Outer Worlds and Metro games.
It's commonly known that clouds and fog/volumetric lighting takes a huge performance hit so I'd rather dial these particular settings down a notch but keep the water and effects high. AC games let me do this but not this.
Also, why the fuck do I have to use a cursor in the main menus with my pad? These little things really are annoying.
Met this character I saved who instantly stole my bracers and ran off. I never saw this kind of action and character dynamic in a cutscene in BotW except for what happened in the past-pieces when you find these scavenger hunt like locations in BotW. BotW2 seriously have to step up and improve on that. At least we got full voice overs (except for Link...) now.

I was immediately and positively surprised with that.

I'll be starting the game on Switch soon, about how far in is this?
Power through to the 3rd Camp in Days Gone, game gets much better from then on.
Update downloading on my Series X.
Highlights
Highlights
- Added support for multiple next generation consoles features.
- Adjusted Stamina consumption to be more lenient and Stamina acquisition to be more generous.
- Various stability improvements.
- Various performance improvements.
Alright, I already feel like an idiot.
I'm in like the third vault in the game (The One Eyee Giant). It won't let me puck up the first blocks that appear. It won't let me push them. I can't do anything. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a meter I've depleted that no longer lets me use the "magnesis" or whatever its called in this game?
Edit: I left the vault and can't use Herakles' Strength or push blocks anywhere. :-/ What the hell am I missing? I try to use it and the button on the HUD is darkened and flashes red.
Edit #2: I think I was in the vault before I was supposed to be? I left and talked to the oracle dude, then it directed me to go in the vault and now its fine.

I had this issue too. Took a few tries but I got them to move eventually. If it's same one I'm thinking it is.
This is "wrong" i know but ive just put the console to full RGB range and TV black levels to "low" on all Ubi titles recently. Atleast on PS5 it still looks great and theres really no black crush. Other games look fine with the "correct" settings but theres something weird with Ubi titles.
It's done by the team that made Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Odyssey, lol.
This game looks colorful but washed out. I have no other hdr looking like this
I put it on my TVs max luminance which is 400. Didn't touch exposure.
I had the same problem until I "unlocked" the piece that was frozen. Then I could move them all. But it was a little wonky
Playing on PS5, and it's charming so far. Played about about 30-45 minutes and noticed a couple things before heading to bed last night.
- Quality mode felt more stable to me than Performance. That seems opposite of what I'd expect.
- In the fight where you learn how to Parry (L1 + R1), I ran into a bug where my Sword attack stopped working. Had to disengage and run away to get my attack back.
Anyone else seen or experienced these things?

HUD seems a little off but, I just changed the game to do the minimalist HUD/no hud.
Just booted the game and got no update. Are you sure this was not the day 1 patch?
There is a issue in performance mode on PS5. For some reason it introduces stuttering when in performance mode. That is why it feels more stable in quality mode.
Are you still in the opening area of the game? If so, it is just that area. When you get to the point where the games title comes up it changes and looks great on my C9 OLED. But yeah, the opening area is not as colorful or "pop".
You might be right actually, maybe I was playing un-patched! Sorry for misleading
Yes please! No rush, since I won't have time to play much this weekend, but any hints you've got would be amazing. :)
Edit: Just saw your second post. That is a hilarious solution, I will definitely give it a try next time I fire the game up.
I'd say definitely not worth it. I love BOTW as well but this game captures nothing of what makes BOTW such a great experience. If you are easily bored by ubisoft open world then you will be bored quickly of this game as well. I threw in the towel after 4 hours.
depends how much exploring you do.
If you just sort of go where supposed to, it's only an hour in.
let me know what happens when you get there !
Any performance comparisons between PS5 and Series X? I'm not sure what system to get this for.
VG Tech: Immortals Fenyx Rising PS5 vs Xbox Series X|S Frame Rate Comparison
Quality Mode PS5 in Performance Mode currently has a bug that causes stuttering unrelated to the games frame rate. PS5 in Performance Mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 3840x2160 and the lowest native resolution found being approximately 2275x1280...

I can't tell if that was the actual solution or if I went all BOTW with it. I've come up with a few solutions like this so far, which I love. I'm not looking anything up, so if I get stuck on a bonus chest, I really try to think outside the box... but...that could be what they want. lol

Where at? I've done them all in the first main area with issue. If it's in another location, I can go look and confirm.
I was able to do this with no issues a couple of days ago. I wouldn't worry.
If you are on PC Epic Games Store might give 10€ again for everything above 15€. And 25% OFF for this game is totally possible by Christmas.
On the second main area and digging this a lot. The puzzling is pretty great honestly, some really fun vaults especially the "boss" one. Progression feels good too, its easy to get over powered in these kinds of games but encounters still feel challenging. Playing on hard and I've died like x5 mores times than I did on my hard Valhalla run. Many gripes are performance isn't as good as I'd like on PC, enemy variety and the weak art style... Especially in a year where Hades came out.
Been reading and it seems pretty clear that the PS5 issues are related to vsync. Without the d1 patch the game is smooth but has tearing. D1 patch eliminated the tearing but introduced stutter.
Well, I was having a good time and then CTD. Besides the CTD, it has been great so far. Humor is hit or miss, either you like it or you don't (fake news expert lol).

Just loving this game, stayed up till three in the morning and didnt realize it,same thing happened with BOTW. I like the fact that it gives you the option to highlight all the spots or just go explore blind. Sometimes I want to know where I need to go and sometimes I just want to be surprised. Combat is really fun and opens up with the more abilities you get. I'm playing on hard and have died quite a bit on some of the encounters,good stuff all around.
Playing on PC @4k everything maxed on a 3080. Im locking my framerate at 80fps and its staying maxed most of the time but I'm using a CX with VRR so I dont really feel the dips when they get in the low 70's.

Desperate to jump in on this, but want the performance bug on PS5 ironed out before I do.
Glad to hear people on here are digging it.

Exactly! There are sessions when i just want to go collect stuff. Other times i wanna be fully immersed and explore. Its wonderful!
