    O ponto mais interessante desse game é o design do mundo e a gameplay, o maior problema é o desempenho na plataforma. Mundo - 10. Gameplay - 9. Design - 9. Historia - 6.

    I played on PC too and cross progression is very useful when I switch. I felt that motion controlled aiming was awful and control feels no so well as PC. I rate lower than PC cause control can improve and motion controlled aiming

    If you are looking for a game similar to the Zelda games, this game is definitely for you. Perhaps many will see it as a copy of Zelda Breath of the Wild in terms of its mechanics, but I think it also has other things that make this game feel special and unique. Its exploration is superb and I never had problems with the frame rate and stuff.

    It’s a solid game. Fun game play and enjoyable humor. It’s also beautiful and relaxing. It would be a 10/10 however it sometimes stutters on switch.

    I think this is far from a perfect game, but it is still better than breath of the wild. Reviews always talked about how original botw was, not understanding gaming is about good games, not new games. ifr is just better than botw because it has platforming and some clearer puzzles.

    I really had a good time with this game. Easy to pick up and play and after they patched it soon after it came out. Yea its alot like Breth of The Wild but too me it is as good of a game as the if not a little better that because there is a story unlike BOTW. Gameplay is fun and the combat gets better as you get further in which i thought was great.

    Immortals Fenyx Rising was very addicting and it certainly gave me that Breath of the Wild feeling which was very welcomed. However, it is very different in so many ways.

    Bad stuff out of the way first: the story sucks a lot. Character models are weird and unappealing. I did not like the voice acting at all. Dialogues were intended to be funny but my god it is was far from that.

    Bad stuff out of the way first: the story sucks a lot. Character models are weird and unappealing. I did not like the voice acting at all. Dialogues were intended to be funny but my god it is was far from that. Another thing that annoyed me was the gliding, you can’t go backwards! You have to make this weird circle to turn around, highly annoying.

    Besides all the bad, you have an amazing game in my opinion. Combat is really good and satisfying, especially when enemies die, they shoot out into the horizon like a canon ball. Exploration was awesome since there are many things to find, well mostly puzzle, like a mega load off puzzles. Some are mediocre but I found the majority to be well designed and fun!
    Often the rewards for doing a puzzle was underwhelming like just a few gems and a new visual for a weapon/gear you already have.

    If you keep doing side stuff, the game allows you to become insanely powerful and I love when games do that. I played it on hard and man oh man, at the beginning I kept dying trying to kill a god damn bear, at the end, nothing could stop me with the way I used my gear/weapons, god powers and potions. Like the last boss was a joke. But most of the game I considered was difficult at the hard difficulty because I wasn’t all decked out the entirety of the game. But at one point you get just too powerful for the game and that’s fine, it’s a good reward.

    Last thing I want to say is, Fenyx is the type if game that I was like « ok I’ll just do one more thing then stop », an hour later I was still playing.

    45h to complete with lots of side stuff.
    Played on the Switch, runs really well, 30fps. It had a few dips in the frame rate but nothing too jarring. Load times are on the long side but are acceptable.

    I loved this game so much. It's really fun to explore and the gameplay is so fluid. It's a incredible job from Ubisoft, specially to make this game runs so well on Nintendo switch. 30h in the game and I have the feeling that I barely touched the main story... Game of the year for me.

    A nice appetizer before the main course, the game has plenty of similarities with BoTW, and still manages to bring it's own charm.

Las cámaras de tártaro son muy divertidas y el diseño de los monstruos y bosses es excepcional. También está ambientado en la mitología griega por lo que a mí me ha enamorado completamente. Por desgracia este juego también posee errores. Combates muy monótonos y que no explotan nuevas técnicas, las cámaras de tártaro siempre tenían mecánicas parecidas y no hay mucho más que hacer tras terminar la historia principal. Sigue siendo un buen juego y os lo recomiendo comprarlo, pero no es el mejor mundo libre. Yo por lo menos no volveré a jugarlo y eso que me gusto, pero no creo que tenga zonas de interés que no se hayan utilizado como elementos en la historia principal.… Expand

    It's a good Breath of the Wild clone and it may have items you must pay for, but it's not tacked on and all items are purely aesthetic, unlike Fallout 76.

    I'm having a blast playing this game! It's not super difficult, but it's definitely fun and time consuming. There's no question that it takes a ton of influence from BOTW, but that's a good thing IMO. I'm 65 hours in, and definitely could have beaten the game by now, but I'm just going around doing the vaults and enjoying it in handheld mode. Play it...don't overthink it...enjoy!

    I genuinely preferred this game over BOTW. And I loved BOTW. The combat and narrative parts alone are so much more complex. Some puzzles are easy, other are tough and the game gives you the option of skipping parts of them if you feel lazy. Some skills you can learn are explicitly made for that and you don't have to use them if you want to experience the full headache haha

    If you liked BOTW, then this game is a perfect example of something different but also better in many ways. As someone who gets "scared" with breakable weapons and "dying" in the BOTW world, Immortals is a more bright adventure with some more lighthearted and funnier undertones. You don't feel quite so alone...

    So yes, this game is very similar to BOTW. However, there are differences. They largely have to do with quality of life. For starters, mounts like horses are accessible everywhere with a long-press of a button and are a lot more useful.

    I loved BoTW, but the story was non-existent/meaningless, the voice acting was non-existent/meaningless (link of course was a silent protagonist), the combat, weather, and day/night cycle were all such chores to the point that even though I put nearly 100 hours into the game, I never bothered to defeat ganon and tired of hunting korok seeds.

For a 60-hour game, I needed more narrative heft. Immortals (omg this game would be rated higher if it had kept the name Gods and Monsters) delivers that narrative heft thanks to great narrators (gods betting on mortals, just like in the Homeric epics) and a wonderfully acted Fenyx (at least the female version). It is fun, plain and simple, and while the game was obviously developed for ps5 and pared down for switch, the visuals (once you clear the intro stage) still look fabulous docked/hand-held and the world is a joy to explore and traverse. The lack of polish before Fenyx reaches the golden isle may lead players to instantly conclude that this game is a poor BoTW clone. I disagree. It's BoTW if BoTW were more fun. BoTW's only clear gameplay advantage is that its shrines were more satisfying than the vaults of tartarus, although Fenyx's larger variety of puzzles is often rewarding too and only occasionally frustrating. Combat and traversal are much more fun and intuitive in Fenyx, and I like the world and its presentation more. I even get God of war feels in cyclops battles. Performance is comparable to BoTW (occasional dips in both games when the action reaches fever pitch), although Fenyx has crashed on me twice (with virtually no progress lost due to robust auto-saving). If you enjoy Greek myth (and I think it's far superior to hyrulean myth), and appreciate how comic it is by nature, then I think the presentation and narration set Fenyx apart. Expect familiarity if you've played BoTW, but I think the tone of Fenyx alone makes it worth playing even if you loved BoTW. A no-brainer buy at $40 if you love exploring beautiful, colorful worlds and enjoying a steady diet of laughs and brain-teasers while doing so.… Expand

    que buena forma de cerrar el año para ubisoft, es cierto que este nueva IP tendra cosas que mejorar en futuras entregas, sin embargo es un excelente titulo, las comparaciones con BOTW son evidentes, sin embargo solamente basta jugar un poco para darnos cuenta que tiene mucha diferencia entre ambos títulos.

I have revealed most ofthe map but haven't had any frustrating framerate issues. Other reviewers have complained about frame rates but I would request that they detail where they are experiencing this as I have not seen anything worth mentioning.

    So far I have spent over 55 hours in this game and the more I play the more I enjoy this game. That isn't to say that I started the game disliking it, because it was enjoyable from the start. As you progress through the game you feel noticeably more powerful, which is very satisfying and rewarding.

    Currently I only own the switch version, but if it goes on sale on Xbox I will consider purchasing a copy. Ubisoft supports cross platform game saves, so to get the full HD graphics experience at home this may be worth a second copy.

    If you are into any of the newest Assassin's Creed games, BoTW, or Greek mythology this game is a must buy IMO.    … Expand

    Immortals Fenyx Rising is always going to be compared to Breath of the Wild, but against all odds, it puts up a massively formidable fight. What's excellent about Immortals is not so much what it shares with Nintendo's biggest Zelda game, but rather where it differs, offering a fresh new approach to storytelling, a fantastic progression system, and a world that you'll never want to leave. No game is perfect, but for me, Immortals comes just about as close as you can get.
