The dialogue is very wooden, cliched and cringey, with awkward pauses between each line. Constant fades to black and silent moments, the already slow pace of the story is further artificially slowed down ad-nauseum. The game is slow and lumbering in every aspect: character movement, action sequences, transition from scene to scene. Reminds me of a higher budget version of The Quiet Man game, crossed with the melodramatic exposition of a real-life modern person comparable to Life Is Strange. Reminds me of a higher budget version of The Quiet Man game, crossed with the melodramatic A fun premise let down by a very awkward game. … ExpandĪ fun premise let down by a very awkward game. A character-driven narrative with snarky one-liners and a companion that helps keep off the lonely feeling that creeps in when I play open worlds, with plenty of space to run (and jump and flip and throw **** with your mind.) Forspoken is what I’ve been needing out of my AAA games, I only wish I could get more of it. I can’t say anything for or about the people that hate it so much, I can only say how much I loved it. Not that she wasn’t relatable, there were a lot of times I’d find myself commenting on the game and not long after Frey would say something very similar. I loved that Frey was her own person, even if that meant going against what you, as the player, thought she should want to do or how she should act. Overall, I enjoyed my experience with Forspoken a lot and am hoping to see more of this world and its characters. It happened during a cutscene toward the end, and when I reloaded it played through just fine. I only had one crash after I had played the game for about 8 hours straight. Traversal and pulling off combos were both massively satisfying. The quests you take to upgrade the spells further all felt fair. I felt the damage scaled appropriately as you went though the story, and upgrading your spells wasn’t a grind since you could easily refund your points to reallocate them as you felt like it. There was nothing at all wrong with the gameplay. That’s not really something that I take points off for though, given how much I enjoyed the story and gameplay everywhere else, so YMMV. A handful of sequences were breathtaking and the only real complaint was the faces being stiff outside of cutscenes. I can see how the animations aren’t anything groundbreaking or special, but they’re far from terrible. A lot of interactions left me with a goofy grin on my face. There isn’t any particular line or interaction that felt out of place given the circumstances. 2.) I also don’t hate “Whedon-esque” or “Marvel” (or whatever other super fun and original label you want to slap on it) style dialogue, so I was entertained by the quips and quirks throughout the game’s events. I turned the banter frequency to high and didn’t mind when lines would repeat since it was something to keep me company while I was out exploring. 2 qualifiers: 1.) I absolutely hate open world games with silent protagonists, so I actually enjoyed Frey and Cuff’s back and forth. I know the response to it has been poor for the most part, but I genuinely enjoyed the vast majority of my time in Athia and am glad I ignored all the negativity leading up to its release. I know the response to it has been poor for the most part, but I genuinely enjoyed Forspoken has actually made it in to my top 10 of all time. I'm going to platinum it … Expandįorspoken has actually made it in to my top 10 of all time. I was caught off just like you but Forspoken is worth picking up. Those clips online were taking out of context so it seemed. It has two endings for replay ability so worth it. Electric magic that you Summon thunder, and etc. Water magic that you surround alot of enemies and explode it at will. You never could breathe there are always Monsters that is corrupted attacking you. Summon clones made of fire to distract massive amount of enemies from charging you. Summon plants to shoot condense rocks at enemies. The hate for this game is overblown! Seriously! People ya really going to let people on the internet dictate what you like? I know I'm not The hate for this game is overblown! Seriously! People ya really going to let people on the internet dictate what you like? I know I'm not going to allow anybody to dictate my purchase without doing sny research myself.
