If AC: Odyssey and Breath of the Wild had a baby, it would definitely be Immortals Fenyx Rising. If you guys have any questions outside of what I shared in the video, don't hesitate to ask! Thanks for watching 💙
Jay they changed the name cuz monster energy drink company sued them saying the name gods and monsters would cause confusion with their brand when people saw it. The explanation they gave is just pr cover-up
It’s literally the game that anyone who grew up with Spyro or skylanders needs 😂😍 it looks like perfect combo of nostalgic and light hearted gameplay and a more advanced open world game
I think it's a game that needs to be approached with a slightly different mindset, but totally understandable that it might not be some people's cup of tea. As for me, it's a very interesting game I would love to try!
Exactly! I don't even know whether I like what I see, or not! It really looks like they stripped AC Odessey's graphics and put on a cartoonish style. Then they added some more abilities and the world is filled with more puzzles to resemble Breath of the Wild... But I'm with you, I definitely want to try this one out.
Combine Breath of the Wild with AC Odyssey? Yes. Yes please. Hate the new name, love this lighthearted cartoony look. A lot. Reminds me of Fable's style a bit.
Yeah, and I don’t have a problem with it being similar to botw, we need more games like that anyway. I just really hopr it’s not as grindy as odyssey. Looks fun so far, love the art direction too, imma play as a female fenix =D
It's understandable why this game may not be for everyone, but for me I'm intrigued. It's like a throwback to those old platform action games of 1990s and early 2000s. I love the look and feel of it, looking forward to getting my hands on this for the holiday..
This is the best impression of this game i have seen so far. Nice details on the mechanics and features with succinct thoughts on the feel of the game. Really high quality content, loved it, thank you.
Just discovered you and your channel. This video brought me so much joy. I'm really glad people appreciated this demo and the game overall. I'm one of the people that put this demo together for you and other youtubers to check out. I, and my team, worked so hard on this and it's wonderful to see it being appreciated. Thank you!
This looks really interesting! It sort of reminds me of old school platformers but with a much more deep combat system. Looking forward to its release!
You basically sold me on the game with this video. Really in-depth, insightful and well put together. Not gonna get it at launch but before this video I wasn't planning on getting it at all, soooo. Looking forward to seeing more! Hope it turns out well and that the MTX aren't too intrusive.
After playing through a number of serious / mature games (RDR2, Final Fantasy VII Remake , Last of Us 2 & Ghost of Tsushima ) I'm really looking forward to playing Immortals with its lightheartedness and comical narration :)
I'm really happy that you give your honest opinion. I would hate to know that someone is reviewing a game and only giving me there dishonest opinion or half honest opinion.
Curious what you think this game has that didn't work in Odyssey. Have not finished Odyssey yet, but have not seen any feature that doesn't work or fit in Odyssey
I played the demo yesterday and it simply managed to do what I want from games, being fun to play, I enjoyed every moment and Im hoping for good switch port :-)
Seems like an in-depth review of a demo. Watched your assassin's creed valhalla one as well - I haven't played any assassin's creed game at all - and I think both reviews and mentions of other games and features were great so I'm subscribing. :P :)
Did you say SIX abilities? & no super or summon or rage mode?? This looks fun but that sounds like I would get bored real quick, especially since a lot of this is a rip from AC. I at least like the stagger mechanic, that's a good add but...
i noticed some green coloured soldiers, do you have allies? do city's exist in this? i love games that have you fighing with some ally soldiers :D i wish that ther was an arpg or someting like this where you can have some companions or mercs to have on the journy, nice video ;)
I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment. I am looking forward to this and Biomutant more than any other RPGs or Action Adventure games coming up for two key reasons: They don't take themselves so darn seriously and they are a bit cartoony to bring back those feelings of gaming as a child. I'm getting sick of the top tier adventure/rpg games incorporating "survival" mechanics or other hyper-realistic mechanics that simply add tedium, time-sink, and therefore suck the fun out of the gaming experience. Beyond Cyberpunk...I feel that this title and Biomutant will be my most replayed games of the next gen.
Honestly a little disappointed they didn’t leave a range of godly powers a secret and also with the limited selection. I was expecting we’d travel the realm and help different gods in different ways and receive a different boon from each. I wasn’t expecting smth from every God of course but at least the main 12 of the pantheon and Hades, whereas it looks like we’ll just be getting powers from Ares, Athena, Hephaestus, and Apollo, with another ability for Heracles who isn’t even really a God, just a hero.
Thanks for being the one RUclipsr I've watched so far who mentioned the stealth - the presence of stealth makes this basically an instabuy for me, as somebody who loves games where stealth is an option (as opposed to either games with no stealth (Witcher 3) or purely focussed on stealth (e.g. Aragami)).
@@jayveeeee I'm curious if it's more or less of a viable mechanic than in BOTW. You can play most of that game without using stealth at all if you want (I see plenty of streamers do that), or you can be like me and start most every encounter from stealth. Two questions, in case you know: 1) is the cloaking ability like invisibility spells that let you re-stealth in view if enemies, or does it need to engaged out of view? 2) Is taking out enemies stealthily one by one without others noticing a possible approach, or do nearby groups of enemies always aggro even if your kill was technically out of sight/behind them etc
I think Ubisoft heard the players who said AC Odyssey went too far with the mythological elements. That's what every comment section was about: "Why is this still called Assassin's Creed?", "This should be a new franchise." and so on. So that's what they did. They separated everything they felt was too much in Odyssey, turned it up to a 100 and and made a new game out of it. Meanwhile AC returns to a "bit more grounded" experience, and more connected to the rest of the franchise, at least that's what they said about Valhalla. I think it's a great idea, I hope this game's gonna be a hit. I can already see some sequels, set in different mythologies (Norse, Egyptian, Arthurian, Japanese, etc.) In the meantime they should let AC rest for a year or two (again), and they should re-evaluate what made it successful in the first place (again).
No game is made without any inspiration from those who came before 'sort of' The graphics and colours look great, the gameplay appears to be smooth and fun.... I can't wait to play it! Question is which platform would it be best on?
No offence to anyone hyped but this looks at most decent If there’s no level scaling and if it doesn’t once you to do side content to level up it’s already 50 times better than odyssey but not what I’m looking for. In recent years Ubisoft seems to love making games that don’t take themselves seriously.
I was hoping for it, but the way Ubi did not mention Valhalla made me sure they weren't showing it. I'm positive we'll see something in the coming weeks!

JAY, BRO, Can we fist fight in valhalla?
JV ! Dude if AC valhalla has unique gear than can we loot duplicate item card for upgrades and what can we loot from enemies
Jay they changed the name cuz monster energy drink company sued them saying the name gods and monsters would cause confusion with their brand when people saw it. The explanation they gave is just pr cover-up
@@dutchvanderlindeofficial1905 qey
a cross between god of war genshin impact is something that i didnt know was possible it seems promising
I'm really glad this game has a comedic tone. A serious tone would not have been good for a game like this.
Me too! Also happy they didn't do the safer "kid-friendly" tone either. Ubisoft does humor well, so they stuck to it.
It’s literally the game that anyone who grew up with Spyro or skylanders needs 😂😍 it looks like perfect combo of nostalgic and light hearted gameplay and a more advanced open world game

That's a great comparison that I didn't pick up on! Definitely has some Fable DNA in here
I hope people don't sleep on this. We have a gem in the making. I'm very excited for this game.
I'm definitely picking this up on Dec.3rd
bruh play zelda breath of the wild instead
@@shyguywhite its literally the exact same lol except botw is good
Yeah, and I don’t have a problem with it being similar to botw, we need more games like that anyway. I just really hopr it’s not as grindy as odyssey. Looks fun so far, love the art direction too, imma play as a female fenix =D
NineLivesToLive
There isn’t, but why waste your time on a copy-cat by Ubisoft, one of the most oh-so-original video game companies in the world?
This is pretty much the only video that has made me interested in this game. Very informative and straight-forward, great video!
It's understandable why this game may not be for everyone, but for me I'm intrigued. It's like a throwback to those old platform action games of 1990s and early 2000s. I love the look and feel of it, looking forward to getting my hands on this for the holiday..
Same here, Ubisoft should at least try something different for once. Check out Pine, it's kinda similar.
Fableeeee
This is the best impression of this game i have seen so far. Nice details on the mechanics and features with succinct thoughts on the feel of the game. Really high quality content, loved it, thank you.
Thanks Michael! Really happy you enjoyed the video 😄
I've always loved games that are heavy on mythology, so I'm looking forward to this
Just discovered you and your channel. This video brought me so much joy. I'm really glad people appreciated this demo and the game overall. I'm one of the people that put this demo together for you and other youtubers to check out. I, and my team, worked so hard on this and it's wonderful to see it being appreciated. Thank you!
dude I came across your channel searching for a video you made 8 years ago. I found it, and I enjoyed it. Thank you, and you have a new subscriber
Hey man that's awesome!! Thanks for subbing :) which video did you find btw?
It was How to get the ray gun in MW3 🤣 I remember I thought it was the funniest video as a child and wanted to rewatch it for memories
Lmao Zeus’s VA is Socrates from ACOd, I love it
Also, I think you need to edit the description, Jayvee!
Omg thank you for saying, completely missed that! Thanks so much :) And I didn't pick up on the VO, nice catch!
The banter between Zeus and Prometheus is actually my favourite part of the game :D
they changed the name bc "Monster Energy Drink" nearly sued them for having the word "monster" in it. Fr trust me just look it up I'm not lying.
I heard that to 🤣were
In a world where companies can trade mark words like monsters 😒 this world is getting more stupid every day
Super informative video, thanks Jayvee! IMHO this IP genuinely shows a lot of promise
Happy to help, David! I can see this being a success for Ubi
I'm
This looks really interesting! It sort of reminds me of old school platformers but with a much more deep combat system. Looking forward to its release!
Me too! I love platforming, Ratchet & Clank is one of my all-time favorites. Definitely felt some of that platforming in this game :)
You basically sold me on the game with this video.
Really in-depth, insightful and well put together.
Not gonna get it at launch but before this video I wasn't planning on getting it at all, soooo.
Looking forward to seeing more! Hope it turns out well and that the MTX aren't too intrusive.
This looks sooo good. Thank you for your coverage. You cemented my interest in this. Definitely gonna be a day 1
After playing through a number of serious / mature games (RDR2, Final Fantasy VII Remake , Last of Us 2 & Ghost of Tsushima ) I'm really looking forward to playing Immortals with its lightheartedness and comical narration :)
Man you said it, this year has been H-E-A-V-Y
Wow i didnt expect it to look this good
Well done 👍
Very informed thanks, might have to pick this up..
Thanks man glad you enjoyed the video!
It shows you how Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning is so underrated, when this has similar graphics, yet Breath of the Wild is what's used!
They should've done this instead of odyssey and released a more realiatic assassin's creed game
Just added your Podcast to my podcast app, can't wait to listen!
I am playing it right now. i can't get enough of this game. It is so beautiful, funny and not too complicated.
Now i want that game more than ever. And prometeus is mean to poor zeus, sounds great
I'm really happy that you give your honest opinion. I would hate to know that someone is reviewing a game and only giving me there dishonest opinion or half honest opinion.
Just found your channel, great impressions video! To me it does 100% look like AC Odyssey + BOTW, having played both in the past year. I'm excited :)
Thanks, Ashley! So happy you enjoyed :) I think that's one of the best endorsements a game could get!
I love the AC Odyssey music in the background.. It fits Immortal also ;-)
Nice preview. Very informative. I'll be picking this up
Nice video keep it up!
Thanks dude! Super happy you liked it :)
Awesome video mate!
Thanks Mathieu! Super happy you enjoyed :)
If there's no min-maxing or build optimization, why does the game have damage numbers popping on the screen?
I can see how that'd be misleading, but to me it's just a stylistic choice. There's really not a lot of depth there from my experience.
Very insightful and thorough review of the demo. Thx
Looks good. It’ll be interesting to see how it runs on Switch.
This is somehow more satisfying to watch and listen to when sped up x1.25.....
You made me so fucking hyped for this!!
Awesome!! Happy to share the hype!
That was actually my first thought about it "Is it like the Odyssey? I am having strong deja-vu." I really felt like I am playing Odyssey again.
I hope people don't sleep on this. We have a gem in the making. I'm very excited for this game.
@@xajm413x I think it may affect some people, but if they give it a chance, they will hopefully find out it's good on it's own.
Went ahead and pre-order! Not sure if I should have gotten the Gold Edition though
Oh my god! Same! I feel so tempted to order the gold edition too
Curious what you think this game has that didn't work in Odyssey. Have not finished Odyssey yet, but have not seen any feature that doesn't work or fit in Odyssey
I would've preferred a historical epic that takes itself seriously, but let's see how this turns out.
What's up with the frame rate? Lots of areas where its chugging or is it just the video?
I had some issues with my footage that unfortunately couldn't be solved after the fact :/ the game was smooth on my end!
Wow the look of this game is amazing. Love the art style for sure.
Amazing review and an amazing game! Thanks.
Thank you, now I can't wait till it's on Game Pass
I played the demo yesterday and it simply managed to do what I want from games, being fun to play, I enjoyed every moment and Im hoping for good switch port :-)
I've just finished the Demo (free on Stadia) and I've gotta say I thoroughly enjoyed my time with it. I'm definitely asking Santa for a copy!!
Seems like an in-depth review of a demo. Watched your assassin's creed valhalla one as well - I haven't played any assassin's creed game at all - and I think both reviews and mentions of other games and features were great so I'm subscribing. :P :)
How big is the map in comparison to AC Odyssey?
Did the demo have custom controls?
Did you say SIX abilities? & no super or summon or rage mode?? This looks fun but that sounds like I would get bored real quick, especially since a lot of this is a rip from AC. I at least like the stagger mechanic, that's a good add but...
You sold me on the game. I've been waiting for a Zelda type game to come out on PlayStation.
I absolutely LOVE THIS GAME..
Of course it has a feel of Zelda and Assassin's creed.. but it's amazing
I’ve been waiting for this game for so long.
I have a question I've been wondering from the very beginning!
Do you create your character to begin with or does it just start as it is?
you have character creation, but it´s not so big I think
i preferred the name gods and monsters, but this still looks great. never got to play zelda cuz i don’t have a switch. i’m definitely picking this up
Looking forward to this, has a Jak n Daxter feel to it. Also love games with character creators.
Lets watch.
Edit: is the story linear or does it have choices.
I got to choose between mission objectives, but there weren't dialogue options. Doesn't seem to affect the story at all
jayvee good, are the cutscenes cinematic or more like in-game engine
i noticed some green coloured soldiers, do you have allies? do city's exist in this? i love games that have you fighing with some ally soldiers :D i wish that ther was an arpg or someting like this where you can have some companions or mercs to have on the journy, nice video ;)

I guess this was played on an Xbox One X. Very interested to see how this looks and runs on a Switch as I will likely get this on Switch
No game is made without any inspiration from those who came before 'sort of' The graphics and colours look great, the gameplay appears to be smooth and fun.... I can't wait to play it!
Question is which platform would it be best on?
I feel on switch would be better.
It looks like previous God Of War games with customisation
Does it feel like anything horizon zero dawn?
Genshin impact is what this and botw were if they had a baby together
I was more excited from another video that showed actual character creation. So the whole journey of the game will feel alot more personalized.
at least I don't have to buy a switch to play one game.. hopefully this is good enough to compare
I hope the large open areas in this game feel more populated than breath of the wild.
Because Monster drink company filed a lawsuit. Thought it would confuse people.
Kingdoms of Amalur Ubisoft Edition been there done that :)
I hope this game does well, i am much more excited about this than AC:Valhalla actually. This looks like just a fun action adventure game.
Maybe I’m too old school but the art style reminds me of World of Warcraft. Which is a positive thing.
Compared to Genshin Impact how good is it? I love GI i got 30+ hours in it 😆
Something about the HUD just doesn't look right
Thanks for a least showing some of the customization, really appreciate that.
I have barely done any missions been busy grinding for armor
Can you climb anything you want?
The main reason they changed the title is because Monster Energy was going to sue them over using the word "Monster" in the title...
How to play the demo?
This game is going to be amazing
Just played the demo, it's mythical ac odessey breath of the wild with narrator from the strange brigade
you are the only one who addresses that its an ac odyssey reskin. i have 1k hours in that game and i can see all the reused assets XD
No offence to anyone hyped but this looks at most decent If there’s no level scaling and if it doesn’t once you to do side content to level up it’s already 50 times better than odyssey but not what I’m looking for. In recent years Ubisoft seems to love making games that don’t take themselves seriously.
Having low expectations I would to play on Switch it feels like Breath of Wild but in Greek setting
I love the nier automata gameplay elements
Is it a good idea to preorde the gold edition? Aaaaaah!!! Decisions!
Breath of the wilds, AC odyssey and god of war in one game!
*im in*
I never got a switch so this will be my BotW game experience 🤣. I do want this game tbh it looks rather fun
If Nintendo had this technology in the 80s. KID IKARUS would've looked something like this.
Now can they make an egypt version? 🥺
Can you play as a guy because I saw some form of the character with a beard just wondering
Yea you can
It's funny, I didn't get any of the visual customization Ubisoft showed at Forward. It looks like you can.
@@jayveeeee I saw in a different video and it was real quick
Has this been released yet
On dec 3
@@grey3414 cool thx
I think there is a charactere creation and I don't think pheonix has a lot of character building in the game
