In the same way Assassins Creed Origins / Odyseey / Valhalla are, if you played any of those for reference. A very light RPG.
The xbox version lacks some of the lowest scores like the 40 from VGC and the 60 from Guardian I think. Those obviously drag down the score a lot. Some outlets seem to hate the game but overall it's positive.
Claven LinkStrikesBack You know what, guys, this discussion is pointless. Bringing Hitler, calling SkillUp a "nazi" and saying "I don't need to know his content, because I declared him a piece of shit" ... yeah, you've made your mind and I won't change that.
Let's get back to Fenyx Rising.
Let's get back to Fenyx Rising.
The Xbox version - which is the one now used in the OP - was always above 80.
From what I've seen, I love the characters. They look like they are from a Pixar movie.
Speak for yourself. Not the people. You mean the kind of characters that you like. Not everything has to align with your tastes. It's fine.
Watching his review makes me regret getting Valhalla. This looks more like my jam and I should have waited. Oh well, gonna wait for sale and get it then.
Easy Allies: "Yet there's so much to do and see, with numerous opportunities that highlight the amazing puzzle designs."
IGN: " With a gorgeous mythological world to fight through and explore, it's a shame Immortals Fenyx Rising's puzzles are so unremarkable."
What the fuck? Lmao.
I'm actually surprised the reviews are this good, maybe I should check it out.

If Super Bunnyhop likes it, good enough for me. Was hoping for Watch Dogs, ehh on Valhalla but neither reviewed to my satisfaction but looks like I'll finally get to play a BOTW clone. Ish.
I was writing this off as just bad. But, now I think it's the game the team actually wanted to make but had to prove to upper management that Greek mythology was something that could earn a buck. So, they had to make AC: Odyssey first. Having seen the reviews now, I feel cautiously optimistic. Not a full price game. Hopefully one of the first games that will be heavily discounted by next summer.
Seems like a decent game, with most of the complaints being about how derivative it can be, which doesn't really bother me. Not every game needs to be groundbreaking.
Will probably get when it hits < $20

After all the "lol Ubisoft open-world bad" hubbub, this game still has a Metascore of around 80 overall so far. Colour me impressed.
Yeah, literally every reviewer I listen to (Easy Allies, Skill Up, Game .informer, and ACG) really liked it or loved it. Good enough for me. And it's from the AC Odyssey team, which is a game I loved. This looks so fun and vibrant. Curious about fidelity vs performance on next gen consoles.
I'm strangely tempted by this:
-I haven't played an Ubisoft open world game since Black Flag so this will be fresh to me.
-BotW 'lite' sounds great to me (although I appreciate that BotW is a great achievement I never really got into it despite putting in quite a few hours)
- this looks like a nice family friendly game to play over the Christmas hols with my son.

Probably a perfect game to play like that. Doesn't seem too hard, has lots of puzzles to collaborate on. Light hearted tone, probably nothing too suggestive.
Ps5 :
+dual sense. Any Support ?
+4k60 ? How is the 4k. Dynamic ? Stable 60?
-start to running low in hard drive storage
Xbox :
+4k60 ? How is the 4k. Dynamic ? Stable 60?
+having more storage (seagate memory card )
-basic controller
Which one to choose
It's the typical enthusiast criticism. I agree with most of it, but at the same time I really do think that most Ubizoft games have a decent amount of quality to them. While the storytelling is subpar, the game systems are pretty solid (if you can stomach the repetitiveness). I think the environments in the recent AC games are outstanding. I actually love to hunt collectibles as a way to experience the worlds. Rather that compared to doing some poorly-written quests.
Games like AC and FC, and probably Immortals, are best played in short sessions. Something that Era-people aren't very good at, I believe. Hence the criticism.
I really, really enjoy the post-Origins AC games, and the overblown hate for those here always makes me laugh.
One critic earlier in the thread said that the DualSense implimentation is not as good as you'd hope but the Activity cards are a useful addition.
The Legend of Belda has come.
Tbh, as a BotW dissenter I should probably play this, to see if my hypothesis is correct, which is that BotW wasn't really that inspired, it was just a smartly put together series of systems as an experiment to see what kinds of Zelda elements would work in a traditional Open World mould.
There's a chance that the same things people complain about in this game are the things I thought was disappointing in BotW, or there is a chance that I've been wrong and playing this game will make me realize what I'm missing about BotW.

Thanks. Activity card is nice but doesn't matter much for me. Then I'm more about performances. Resolution and framerate disparity and value between serie x and ps5. If the same I'll go for Xbox as I have more storage
That's an RPG alright to me.
Will probably check the game out eventually. BOTW's lack of RPG elements and breakable weapons made me not wanting to play the game.
That's because it's not an Ubibox game. It's an "Open Air" game like BotW, but made (or copied) by Ubisoft. It's the first trend-follower other than Genshin Impact.
I'd love this game if it was on Steam. I loved odyssey and would love this game as much if it was in my library on Steam. I'm sure this game look amazing in ultrawide.
I was going to buy it on release, but then I found out today that this game was not getting a physical Japanese release. The only way to get a Japanese language version is to buy the Japanese version. I usually play in English while my wife plays in Japanese.
.
As there is no way for me to share a physical Switch copy with my wife, I unfortunately won't be buying the game.
Maybe if the Japanese version goes on sale for like 10 bucks on PS5. But not earlier.

As the others said, this is a very disrespectful review. 3/10 cause it doesn't do anything new? Like sports games, COD and racing games. Na men this is such a biased review it's not even funny.
For a game that's playable at least 5/10. 3 is for a mess. Reviews really need to be fair and not let their expectations affect their scores
This excerpt from the eurogamer review is kind of what I was worried about with this game. Still interested in trying it, but Ubi can't seem to get over this stumbling block with their open worlds. Well - i guess they sell like hot cakes so what do I know?
At this point it's safe to asume that they have a software where you just type in the setting and upload some arts and then the game is generated automatically. All Ubisoft games feel so very samey in their structure, it's not surprising that this one isn't different. Someone here once said that Ubisoft is aiming for low 80 scores with their games and this seems true for this one as well. They found their balance between quantitiy and quality and make a lot of money from it.
That Eurogansr excerpt perfectly describes why BotW is so special and why few open world games hold a candle to it for many players. It also convinced me I'll likely never play Immortals. Thanks for posting it.
