  • Immortals of Aveum Review
    This is my first video review. I hope it's not terrible, but please be honest (and gentle!) and let me know what you think.
    -Available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC
    -Most of the footage here is from a high-end PC with an RTX 4090, but there is also a little from the Xbox Series X
    -Game was not provided for review, I have no relationship with EA or Ascendent Studios.

    About the Gaming Arcadia review & rating system:
    There is no perfect way to condense reviews down to a score. BUT scores can still serve a purpose, they can still convey a lot of information in a tiny frame. Our ratings try to consider the vision and ambition of a game, and how well it delivers. Scope & Execution.
    Scope - Letter-graded, A-F
    A - Typically the AAA budget blockbuster, aiming to be the best what it does - Be it a huge open world packed with content, a cinematic action game that spares no expense on presentation, or anything else. Big games
    B - Still aiming to be the best at what it does, but with a tighter scope
    C - Still likely to be a moderately sized team effort, but not so lavish on production value and not pushing boundaries
    D - Smaller, tightly focused project.
    E - Small-small, perhaps quite singular in focus
    F (U?) - There is no discernible ambition. Troll project
    S - Unicorn. A game that sincerely attempts to push above & beyond anything we've seen (ie Star Citizen, but real)
    The scope will broadly align with the budget of the game, but it isn't a direct correlation - it's more an in-exact way to represent how ambitious the game is. There's no shame or shade in a game having a tight scope, so this really isn't a scale of 'good to bad'.
    Execution - Numeric scale, 0-100
    100 is perfect execution in everything the game attempts.
    We use the full scale, not the weird 65-96 scale you may see elsewhere. There isn't an exact science to the score, but we feel it is important to recognise and reward the things a game does well (it can be surprisingly easy to overlook those when you are trying to critique)!
    "Must play!" - We never tell you whether you should buy a game or not. Everyone's preferences, priorities and circumstances are their own. We're here to tell you about the game, not dictate your finances.

    Did I just witness a first? Did I just witness a new format for game reviews? I think I might have done! It is very rare to find a review that handles all aspects of a game with an even-handed intelligent approach, the reviewer even letting you know what aspects of gaming he prefers to allow the watcher to have some context to comments.
    I didn’t think this was a game for me but I now genuinely feel I know which aspects of it I would like and those I wouldn’t. I really like the sectioned approach as this backs up the more general earlier part of the review. Keep the reviews coming Asa you just might be changing the review world!

    This is a great review. As fair and objective as anyone could want. Informative without attitude. I like it.

    Loved the review clear precise & to the point, you could read audio books for fantasy adventure and I'd listen quite happily.
    I'm guessing your review scaling 75 is out of (low)1-(high)100 & the B is out of A-F, just checking.

      Audio books where every character sounds exactly like me? Sounds awful. I'll do it.

    Immortals of Aveum always looked like a very expensive and high budgeted B-Tier game to me, which is totally fine. Gameplay reminds me of a much more dynamic Ghostwire Tokyo. It´s a game i will most definitely going to play later down the line. This Year is too packed for it but next year for sure.
    Good first review, informative and without fuss. Could use some end score graphics though.
    Keep up the good work !

    Great review Asa! This being your first review I would never have guessed until you mention it. Outstanding quality, very informative with excellent points calling attention to the positives and negatives of the game. I really hope that Ascendant doesn’t give up on creating games like this. Like you said we should want them in the space. I think they need to find the balance of pricing and marketing properly.

    Great review. Can tell you’ve put a lot of thought and time into this. Convinced me I need to finish it.
