      Just got a sub. Great game play and awesome build and am glad someone actually is playing the game not just running through it for quick views and or quick content and actually gave the game a fair chance much appreciated all the other members here that see the game for what it is and gave it fair rating and evaluations. Yes the game has some issue no doubt but to say the game was a let down and lost cause is absurd to me. I’ve played worst games. I like the overall difference in play style and not just your average button smashing triangle square square and the combo build up is what’s happening.

      This is coming from somebody who didn't play the demo and just watched minimum on trailers. Because I didn't want to be spoiled. But Yo at first when all I had was the earth spells. I was really hoping to have the fire swords to just swing away. But when I finally got them and tried it out I actually didn't like it at all. My favorite spells are all earth , lighting, and with fire just the L2 button spells, which are insanely sick.

      @shira2151 Год назад +6

      Yes. I thought this game would be garbage based on the demo and the hate hype around this game. I bought it because I want to support Black protagonist or characters in my favorite genre of games "JRPGs". Now I personally don't like Frey's personality but other than that this is actually a pretty solid game.
      It feels like FF15 but a magic focused combat. Now with it being a JRPG it comes with the outdated JRPG issues...poor quest design and overrall cringey dialogue. That's normal...it sucks that since it's a black girl and not a white or asian girl people clearly are not seeing this as a JRPG and are holding it to extreme accounts. Any JRPG person knows if this was a Asian or white guy with Black or Blonde hair in replace of Frey...the hate wouldnt be anywhere near as bad. They would dismiss it as a JRPG.

    • @MuriloRiFO
      @MuriloRiFO Год назад +5

      @@shira2151 If it had an asian or an anime main protagonist it would easily get at least a aggregate score of 80 in metacritic and opencritic, people would be praising the acrobatic magic combat and forgiving the underbaked open world and quests

    Valkyrie Elysium was fun for me despite all the hate it got. People said she had very static dialogue and the story was boring which was irrelevant to me since combat is my main focus from Square, I think people just like to complain in the name of bandwagoning. So on that note, I'll definitely give this game a try, don't believe all the hate so quickly.

  • @deanreid3320
    @deanreid3320 Год назад +10

    Im around ten hours in and really having fun with the combat and parkour…my biggest gripe though is the stupid pauses after every cut scene and being stuck to the spot for 5 seconds or so.Aside from this and the initial slow pacing im glad i picked this game up and relied on my own opinion instead of jumping on the hate train. A couple of tips from me would be: change the support spells to auto equip in the settings, it equips the next support spell available that isnt on cooldown, next (and i know this isnt for everyone) but you are able to change the settings of stamina regen to very fast so you rarely run out of stamina.

  • @Oceanstalker

    Moral of the story; you can't satisfy people. When God of War was released there would be people who say, "this game is too linear." And when Forspoken was released, there would be people who say, "this map's too big, the world looks empty and the combat system is jancky as hell." *takes a sigh.

  • @honeymoanz
    @honeymoanz Год назад +5

    Since I'm playing it on PC, I had to wait for the game to launch before I could download and play the demo, mainly to see if it had any issues with bugs or crashing. Everything checked out and once I got a feel for the combat mechanics, which I enjoyed, I went ahead and purchased it.
    I'm a little over 20 hours in and have just gotten the fire abilities. IMO, the dialog isn't as bad as what many reviewers are making it out to be. The negative feedback sounds a little forced and seems like just the cool thing to do. With that being said, it's probably not game of the year material by any means, but I personally don't go into a game expecting a GOTY experience. If it happens, then it happens, and even then, it's still pretty subjective.
    Forspoken starts out super slow, and some of the side quests and interactions feel kinda dull, but the traversal and combat system is definitely fun. For me, this game feels like an MMORPG, even though it's a single player game. The graphics are pretty nice, especially the particle effects, but then again, I am also running it with ultra settings + ray-tracing in 4k (Intel Core i7-13700k + Radeon RX 7900XTX) which nets around 60 fps, 90-100 with FSR enabled.
    My main complaint with the game is probably just gear progression, as it doesn't really feel like finding new items is an explicit upgrade, especially since you can just upgrade the stats by crafting. I can also understand the price tag of $70 being pretty steep for something that could just lead to disappointment, but I guess that's solely up to the person to decide if they want to play it immediately or wait for a price drop to where they feel more comfortable.

    I didn't watch any gameplay any reviews all I did was played the demo first on PS5 then tried the demo on steam deck
    Purchased it on the deck and got a stable 30 for most of it
    Overall I loved the game the gameplay was really good
    Story was good and I didn't expect the major plot twist towards the end, which I enjoyed more
    The only complaint I have and it's a small one is I thought the end felt a little rushed
    But I enjoyed the game alot, hope they add a ton of dlc to it

    If anyone's having trouble killing the goliath at the Ferrum Guild near the fort, jump in the top of the fort, run all the way downstairs avoiding the mobs, open the front door from the inside and run outside. the skinny mob will come outside, and you can kill him in the open, but the goliath can't get through the front door, so he'll just wedge himself in the doorway, and you can spam burning spears at him until he's dead. he might throw a few rocks at you but that's all he can do.

    Bad optimization, these graphics do not justify the specs it's asking for on the PC. Hogwarts Legacy runs circles around Forspoken graphically, and it has a lower spec requirement.

    The combat system is very boring. But the main story is cool. I hope they will rework mechanics in a part 2
