How is this game?

[dickolasッ]

I know a lot of cry babies complaining about the currencies and stuff and uplay but how is the actual gameplay? I remember Middle Earth Shadow of War had the same complaints and I never had to spend a dime in that game and I put 100’s of hours in it. I honestly was not too into breath of the wild so should I just skip on this sale?

If you like Shadow of war and breath of the wild its a no brainer. Buy it on uplay.

This is one of the best games I've ever played. The graphics are good and it has excellent gameplay. I put on reshade and ran it on max with my 6750xt 3800xt. This game wont run maxed with a 1070, so you know, its a taxing game. (because I have a old 1070).
The story is funny to me. The only thing that sucked was the dlc.
Buy the base game, and expect a puzzle game with good combat and cool upgrades. Loads to do and the game progresses in a interesting direction. The final level area is quite extra beautiful.
It can be a little difficult, so if you're key board guy, idk, if you fingers are like super quick get it.
I beat this game and own it on Uplay, and I had no issues running it, using a controller, and all.

it's alot like assassin's creed odyssey but less mature. There is no blood, gore or profanity. Feels alot like odyssey from the Era, the battle mechanics, being able to climb on near anything. Scouting the map checking off items, and challenges is pretty much the same in odyssey. Even has the Kassandra hair style to choose from in the CC and her outfit on obisoft. The differences are that Immortals Fenyx Rising is more puzzle orientated and the world is kind of empty of human NPC's. Played for about 20 hours I haven't find any towns or human quest givers. Unlike odyssey, although there is still tons to do. Just the set up is a different.

Makes sense, as Immortals was developed by the same studio that developed Odyssey. I think I read somewhere that this is the game they had wanted to be able to make had they not been constrained by the Assassin's Creed IP. I am pretty sure that a lot of the models used are ones used in Odyssey, just slightly changed or retextured to fit the art style.

The game's like a Family feud. Its Narrated by Zeus and some other guy (Promethius, they are like comedians), it deals with Greek Mythology and it puts you as a guy thats finding his place amongst the gods. Its elitest, and is like a power fantasy. Your nose is too high for town folk and the people are all possessed or destroyed by Typhon, the evil taking over the land that you set out to destroy.(to destroy typhon)
Odysseys story is terrible, this games story is actually entertaining, in a comedic style.

One of the jokes is (I'm trying not to spoil, it shouldn't) you meet a girl with an annoying voice. This is done on purpose, its that chick, you know? the one with the annoying voice.

Conceptually I liked this game a lot, but what made me eventually stop playing it is how tedious the battles become. I'm not happy with the design decision to make places spawn stronger versions of monsters as your character becomes stronger. It kinda defeats the purpose of becoming stronger and never gives you the satisfaction of "clearing" a region.

I finished this game on PC before it was released on Steam, so I can't speak to the Steam problems.

There is a problem with the 'checking for available content' screen taking a couple minutes, and Ubisoft just isn't going to fix that.

As for the game, I'd say it's very much a hybrid of Breath of the Wild and AC Odyssey. It's much more arcade-style than BotW, in that you don't have to cook food, the fight mechanics are a lot better, weapons don't break, and visually more colorful.

It's also more shallow for those same reasons. The story is barely passable. You probably won't find any moments that you enjoy story-wise, but it also provides a reason to go from point A to B with out being...too awful.

Here's the thing, the first 50% of the game is a TON of fun. Exploring new lands, solving puzzles, upgrading your character. all great. Then it plateaus and becomes a slog for the next 25%, while you're finishing up and getting ready for the endgame.

The endgame is atrocious. The entire endgame is on rails, strict, strict rails. I don't know why they'd do that with an open world game, but the entire last region is just walking up a mountain, and it takes forever, and I mean forever.

So if you're not a stickler for finishing games, yeah. I wouldn't pay more than maybe $30 for it....even though I paid full price heh. Oops.

It's a very solid game with thousands of years of cool mythology behind it. Win-win

I can't say enough good things about this game, so I won't.
