What Are You Playing?

Started Ubisoft's bomba-bomb-bomb Immortals: Rise of Phoenix Fenix Fenyx 
It's actually a good game, not least of all because it's a pretty straightforward Zelda Breath of the Wild clone. There's no Lego stuff like TOTK, but there's a lot of climbing-with-stamina-limitations, pretty decent melee combat, and NO WEAPON BREAKAGE. So that's a win. The character feels pretty generic, I'm wondering how every god, demigod, and many creatures have more personality than the Player Character. 
But, yeah, pretty fun so far!

It's in my backlog. Doubt it will get out of it, but I would like to try it just for comparison's sake.

I'm curious what people's hopes were for it. I don't remember UBI hyping it much, which lines up with my general disparaging of Marketing in games, where they'll only ever bet on what they consider to be a sure thing. When a new title doesnt look like an easy win, they'll let it flounder without support, then point to the low sales as "we were right all along."

Did you buy it at launch, or was it heavily discounted?
