    An absolute surprise title for me. Got it through the Xbox Game Pass.

    I tried to wrap my head around Breath of the Wild but never really got a feeling for it. Even with the Switch pro controller the controls were too finicky for me and I found no real access to the game. With Fenyx this is the complete opposite. The gameplay and controls are the best that I've played for Years, maybe    An absolute surprise title for me. Got it through the Xbox Game Pass.

    With Fenyx this is the complete opposite. The gameplay and controls are the best that I've played for Years, maybe ever (and I got my first PC when I was 6 y/o so 30 years ago). Super snappy, reminds me of the Batman Arkham Series.
    Another big plus are the lovely made animations. Everything is buttery smooth, the colors are brilliant and the whole atmosphere of the game is sound.

    There are also some downsides - the "story" is okay at best and the narration of Prometheus and Zeus that always add something from the off becomes more and more annoying - especially considering that the voice actor of Zeus has a decent voice but has got to work on what words to stress and which not. But this game is something you play for the fights, the gameplay and the keen interest in exploring the island.

    Ubisoft Québec did a very fine job here and everyone who has the Game Pass should give this hidden gem a try :-)
    All in all a 8.5.

    From my perspective this a pretty good game and score does not reflect what I felt when I played.
    After playing The legend of Zelda BOTW this game show me what Nintendo can improve in TOTK.
    Puzzles are really funny, some of them are challenges that need brain more than equipment, I pretty recommend If you want to play something similar than BOW

    Absolute pleasure to play this game and the cartoonish graphics match perfectly the playful and fan personality of the game. I also approved it for my daughter, who loved the cosmetics, the horses and pretty much everything. Great litttle gem, make yourself a favor and get it!

    A light hearted botw styled open world game. I liked it a lot even though it lacked polish here and there. For example there are wayyyyy too many collectibles imo, the control scheme on m+k and on controller is not the best, the horse travel speed is too low and the weapon and armor perks are very basic. On the upside combat is flashy and fun, visuals and voice acting is superb and theA light hearted botw styled open world game. I liked it a lot even though it lacked polish here and there.

    Jugabilidad
    - Todos los que hayáis probado un Zelda Breath of the Wild o más recientemente el multiplataforma gratuito Genshin Impact encontraréis en este immortals fenix rising una jugabilidad ya conocida. Manejamos a un personaje el cual podemos editar no sólo antes de empezar partida sino también durante. Una vez dentro del mundo que nos han preparado los chicos de Ubiusoft Quebec, nos encontramos con una escena que resulta familiar, un basto mundo listo para ser explorado plagad de puzzles, cofres y otros puntos de interés, donde para alcanzar determinados puntos del mapa o superar desafíos tendremos que hacer uso de las múltiples posibilidades que ofrece el juego como volar, saltar, o hacer levitar grandes rocas u objetos que deberán ser colocados cuidadosamente en puntos clave para abrirnos camino. Si lo que te interesa es saber como avanzar en la historia e ir desbloqueando el mapa sin duda deberas subir las características a tu personaje y en Immortals Fenix Rising tienes varias opciones. Subir la vida utilizando un elemento que encontraras por el mundo denominado ambrosía, subir la resistencia resolviendo mazmorras y obteniendo rayo de Zéus y por supuesto podrás mejorar tus habilidades obteniendo moneda del juego que podrás conseguir completando misiones de encargo.
    Gráficos
    - El juego sale de la norma de gráficos hiperrealistas a la que ubisoft nos tiene tan acostumbrados para atreverse con algo nuevo, un estilo cartoon de temática grecoromana que le sienta fabulosamente al juego y aunque antes hemos dicho que no es gráficamente hiperrealista las físicas que utiliza si lo son y podrás ver como diferentes elementos del juego responden a elemntos tan realistas como la gravedad
    Música
    - En el apartado sonoro nos encontramos ante uno de esos títulos épicos con banda sonora propia. Ademas el doblaje al español saca a relucir los grandes profesionales del sector que tenemos en nuestro país. Todo esta dispuesto para que desde el minuto uno te sientas dentro de tu personaje, un valiente héroe dispuesto a descubrir todos los secretos que a lo largo y ancho del mapa.
    Historia
    - A nivel narrativo nos encontramos con una historia que tiene sus luces y sombras, aunque a mi parecer es uno de los puntos menos fuertes del juego no deja de ser algo totalmente objetivo y que por otra parte sin ella el juego quedaría cojo de propósito, quizás peca de repetitivismo poético cayendo en el chiste fácil recurrentemente. Puede que al final sea cuestión de acostumbrarse al estilo narrativo que han querido dar a este Immortals Fenyx Rising y quien sabe quizás en un futuro quieran dotarlo de un modo multijugador para que tu y tus amigos podáis crear vuestra propia historia, pero por el momento la acción será para un solo jugador.    … Expand

    I'm so surprised about the game. I didn't expect that it would be so funny and interesting. I totally enjoy the time when playing the game. It is an underestimate game. Besides, I would appreciate UBISoft put Chinese audio into the game. That is awesome. I really hope that UBISoft could make more games with Chinese audio in the future. It will be good news for every Chinese spoken players.

    近年来玩到最符合我口味的育碧游戏了，第一次育碧游戏全收集了。
    解谜挺有意思，但后期有几个宝箱解谜跟之前的逻辑完全不一样有点怪。
    所有Boss都有些拉跨。

    This game seems to have flown below everyone’s radars. It has done so on wings of electrical gold, though, rather than wax. If you’re waiting for Breath of the Wild 2, or if you’ve always wanted to play BotW but never had a Switch to play the first one, play Fenyx Rising.

Immortals não é um jogo ruim, mas foi o meu limite de aguentar esse padrão de Games.    … Expand

You can´t do something completely unic anymore. This game stands on its own 2(?) legs. This game is filled to the brim with Character, Charm & Enjoyment.

    The only con I have to complain about is the DLC. Why Ubisoft keeps doing dlc that have nothing to do with the game it is supposed to expand upon is beyond me. For me it started with FC5. An epic American Wilderness adventure. Like it? HELL YEAH! want more? HELL YEAH! Then here you got some mars attacks, vietnam war & zombie shooting! WHAT?    … Expand

    Spider-Man 3 is the best movie that Spider-Man made. Since its release in 2007, critics have spent countless hours analyzing every frame, every scene, every line of dialogue in search of its many subdued themes and messages. Like Garfield, Spider-Man 3 is a film about layers; on the surface, it's your typical thrill-a-minute Blockbuster with cutting-edge special effects, but upon furtherSpider-Man 3 is the best movie that Spider-Man made. Since its release in 2007, critics have spent countless hours analyzing every frame, every scene, every line of dialogue in search of its many subdued themes and messages. Like Garfield, Spider-Man 3 is a film about layers; on the surface, it's your typical thrill-a-minute Blockbuster with cutting-edge special effects, but upon further viewing your start to understand this is merely a façade - a false attempt to placate a broader audience. In superhero movies, you can only tell two different stories, really, the origin story or a story about heroes learning to work together as a team. Spider-Man 3 shatters expectations by not giving you the rise of Spider-Man, but rather the fall. Peter Parker becomes tangled, if you will, in a web of violence and deceit, and ultimately, becomes the villain. The movie starts with Pete. He sees his best friend, James Franco and he clotheslines him down an alley and kills him. Then we're introduced to Sandman, who we learn is a great father trying to save up enough money for his daughter's surgery. So Spider-Man gets wind of this and kills him in a sewer. Then the city throws a parade for Spider-Man and he kisses some bimbo, right in front of his girlfriend, then he meets this guy, who is actually his biggest fan. Up to this part, I kinda figured out that maybe Spider-Man is just having a bad day. We all know he's good guy at heart. But then **** stupid-ass James Franco starts being alive again, so Mary Jane dumps Spider-Man, for no good reason and then she says she's seeing another guy. Spider-Man in a state of such distraught and fragility goes to the only guy he thought he could trust, James Franco, who goes: "I'm the other guy" **** backstabbing piece of **** James Franco. Now this scene is essential, Peter looks back in the café and that little **** winks at him and then boom! like that he's gone. Now the question is... where the hell did he go? The truck takes like one second to go in front of Peter, and then he disappears. This is where I realized that James Franco is actually hiding under the table. Think about it. Naturally, Spider-Man slams James Franco into a wall, and then chucks a **** grenade at his head. Then we cut to Spider-Man being fed a plate of cookies and he says: "You got any with nuts?" - "Go make me some cookies with nuts in them" Now this is actually a very clever scene when you think about it; In life there is such a rich variety of cookies - peanut butter, chocolate chip, mint cookies, oatmeal raisin, but director Sam Raimi has Spider-Man consciously choose nut cookies, to signify that this man has gone nuts. Do you guys get that? You have the scene where Spider-Man is pointing at various women on the sidewalk, now look at the gestures he's making with his hand. He is saying to these women "You're safe now, but in Spider-Man 4 I will shoot you with a pistol." But it's not until this moment where we, the viewers, see that faint flicker of hope within Peter snuffed out. He changes his fair from the normal way to this evil hair. This is when the Spider-Man I knew, who had lost uncle Ben, who had defeated Bonesaw, this is when he had become truly lost. Spider-Man 3 tells a dark story that confronts the audience with serious questions, and for this reason I think it became a very divisive film. It's a movie from a different era, where artists were encouraged to take bold risks, uninhibited by close-minded executives, and I sincerely doubt we'll ever see Marvel reach these heights again. Like Alfred said - "With big power, comes big responsibility."… Expand

    Game is pretty good in my opinion. It has all the elements you'd like from games like Assassin's Creed or The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild but in a somewhat fresh and not too serious context.

    Positives: -A lot of puzzles -Big open world -Character customization in-game (Not too deep but it's there) -Armor sets, helmets, bows, swords, axes and skills as well as Godly powers.

    -Grinding... a lot.
    -Once you have a decent amount of skills unlocked you will be OP and enemies will be really easy to defeat.
    -Protagonist is not that well developed.

    из минусов. Ужасная локализация на русский язык. Иногда персонажи явно что-то говорят, а из динамиков только музыка. Русский голос женского персонажа пытка для моих ушей.

    Immortals: Fenyx Rising takes Ubisoft in a new direction, different from that of Assassin’s Creed. The game still utilizes an open-world, the way it goes about it is very different. While it doesn’t bring anything new or innovative to the table of action-adventures, Immortals is a short and charming colorful journey into Greek mythology.

    Overall, Immortals is an enjoyable game. Its visual elegance, witty dialogue, engaging puzzles, grand exploration and the sheer amount of love for the source material demonstrated by the devs leads to a game that, though it fails to be as singularly unique or innovative as the games it takes influence from, is still a game that's about as good as the sum of its parts. The combat, exploration and world-building all lead to a great relaxing weekend game. Sit back, relax and take a break from the gritty dregs of modern AAA games. It may not be the main Thanksgiving-day course, but it's still a fantastic post-dinner turkey salad.
