    Granted I certainly didn't pay $60 for this game, but at the bargain price I got it for, it provided me with a solid week of fun playing through the campaign on regular difficulty and then on the highest difficulty. This was followed by an additional week of going through the multiplayer (which, on Xbox is still playable; I was getting matches 3 out of 4 times).

    There is a lot to be desired in the levelling up system (half-baked doesn't begin to explain it's ineptitude), but it's a fun romp with an aesthetic and time period (albeit, stupidly historically inaccurate) that is often not seen in games.

    All, in all, it deserves a slightly better score than the average here, but seeing how you can pick it up for the price of renting a movie, it's definitely worth at least going through the campaign on regular difficulty.

    Have fun, just don't expect to get a lifetime's enjoyment out of it.    … Expand

    I remember, at one time, this project was a launch exclusive for Xbox One, and had to convince people to buy a prefix for it. If we consider the game from this side, then of course it is rather weak for a AAA level project, and I would be very upset if I bought it for a full price as a new generation game.

    But, since then 9 years have passed and now the situation has changed somewhat.

If we consider the game from this side, then of course it is rather weak for a AAA level project, and I would be very upset if I bought it for a full price as a new generation game.

    But, since then 9 years have passed and now the situation has changed somewhat. Firstly, the game was very surprised by the graphics. Despite the fact that so many years have passed, it looks great, and in some places even beautiful by modern standards. And what is important, the system requirements are ridiculous, which indicates good optimization. The plot, atmosphere, music, sounds, all this is also very good.There are only complaints about the combat system, because it is as simple as two fingers, and even a small child will quickly figure it out without any prompts. I liked the executions, at the first two levels you admire everyone in general, but by the end of the game, of course, they already get bored.

    In general, if you look at the game well, it seems that apart from the visual, there is nothing in it, but I can’t say that this is a minus. Personally, I wanted a peppy action game for a couple of evenings, and that's exactly what I got, only a good visual and setting as a bonus. And yes, do not take it as a historical game, this is a real representative of the peplum genre that Hollywood has been churning out throughout the last century. Again, for me personally, this is not a minus.

    To sum it up, I understand why the game didn't make a splash on release and now it's hardly remembered. The same thing happened to Sony with Order 1886, both games are like beautiful tech demos with a normal plot, but too simple gameplay. But this is the same case when time has passed, and the game has not become worse, perhaps even better, because now it does not try to be what it was not. All in all, it was a pleasant surprise. Feel free to take it if you are looking for a pleasant light game for a couple of evenings    … Expand

    Overall, I enjoyed Ryse for what it was: a barely serviceable gaming experience whose priority was just to look as good as possible.

    I don't see where this game excells. For a hack n slash/adventure kind of game the combat system is as boring as it gets. You have a button to hit with a sword, a button to hit with the shield and a button to block. There is NO interaction between all these except for animations. There are no interesting combos at all.

    Then you have a button for executions that at first are pretty cool, they start a minigame and the animations are well handled, but after an hour of repeating them it gets sort of annoying.

    The plot is as cliché as it gets. A warrior that is blessed by the gods to fight for honour and justice and overcomes entire legions of barbarians (which by the way, defeated the Roman empire so there's that) without much difficulty. It is influenced literally in its entirety by Hollywood with that "hero" stereotype and I could even say which movies they copied scenes from.

    Historically wise, while not being that important, this game **** on the Roman empire. I know it's just a game, but if you're gonna make a game about Romans, at least learn how they did things.

    Graphically it's pretty okay. It's not that amazing, it just has pretty textures on the models of your character and enemies. Not that it needs anything else but it's not anything special.

    I got this game for 5€ during a sale and I don't regret it cause of the price, I had an okay time (got bored in a few stages) but I don't see this game being worth more than 30 bucks, and I don't see myself replaying it ever again in the future.    … Expand

    I was very reluctant to buy this game because of the bad reviews, but it paid off. The gameplay is amazing and extremely fun. I would of given it a higher score if there was more diversity in the enemy's, a longer story, and more content such as more customizable weapons and armor. But I highly recommend this game.

    Ryse: Son of Rome is a third person medieval combat game that exposes its execution moves, animation job and graphics in quite an impressive fashion. But to be honest, that's probably all I can praise about it. The game is poorly optimized and written in a shallow disappointing storyline.

    Hack. Slash. Shield bash. Repeat. That's Ryse: Son of Rome in a nutshell. The more I tried to objectively assemble a list of positives and negatives, the more I realized that Ryse has little unique to offer (those graphics, though!). However, there is real promise in several areas, and I had fun in an arcade-y way (hence the recommendation). Ryse is worth a purchase at 75% off or more, butHack. Slash. Shield bash. Repeat.

However, there is real promise in several areas, and I had fun in an arcade-y way (hence the recommendation). Ryse is worth a purchase at 75% off or more, but certainly not at full price.

    What's to like:
    + The graphics for sure. If you have a killer rig and want an awesome-looking game to showcase your hardware, this is your game. The developers didn't phone in the backdrops, either: the vistas are huge, the backdrops extensive. The undergrowth in Britain is deep, detailed and lush. The water looks like real water, not shiny, shifting, reflective plastic. Character detail is superb, though facial animations still look just a bit stiff.
    + The voice acting is great, and carries the game at many points. Everyone delivers a superb performance (player-character Marius and npc Vitallion are both stand-outs).
    + The story has emotional impact, though if you're at all a fan of the time-period, the careless mixing of old and new legends will probably annoy instead of satisfy. Still, it's enough to keep you moving forward.
    + The soundtrack is a decent emulation of Zimmer's Gladiator score (not surprising).
    + The combat is slick and swift, and easy for newcomers.
    + A lot of effort clearly went into designing the two-player co-operative multiplayer; there are at least a dozen maps and four game modes. It's a lot of fun to team up with someone and slay enemies in the arena, but matchmaking is not that good at the moment, if a match can be found at all.
    + Well-optimized (for Radeon, anyway). In an era of increasingly shoddy PC ports, Ryse ran great on my moderate hardware (A10 6800k + 2GB R7 260X); I averaged around 50fps @1080p Medium settings.

    And now, the not-so-awesome stuff.
    - Linear as heck. Rome may look awesome in the distance, but you can't go there.
    - While the story works, even the slightest bit of historical research will reveal there is nothing even approaching “accuracy”. If you were hoping for a cool Roman-era hack'n slash, you'll get it. Historically accurate? Nope. Just a mix of the cool stuff.
    - No real large-scale payoff to the story. Marius has closure, no question. But the larger implications – including that he was somehow an instrument of the gods – are never addressed. We just get these god-figures who appear at the end (and are glimpsed throughout) with some decent speeches about purpose, rules, and Rome, and that's it.
    - Combat is limited and repetitive. Hack, slash, shield-bash, repeat. Maybe dodge here and there. It definitely bored me by the sixth chapter (out of eight). A missed opportunity to maybe dual-wield swords, or have a spear and shield, but nope. A sword and shield the entire game.
    - Staying with combat for a minute, finishing moves are a QTE-fest. I don't mean every few minutes; every other second you're performing some kind of QTE. I suppose this was easier than programming more complicated forms of combat.
    - I loved some of the contextual battle choices – where to deploy your archers, advancing on a line of archers in the testudo formation. But these are under-used, and offer little variation.
    - Upgrade skills are ridiculously cheap. I've played enough of the Batman Arkham games to be able to string together a 35-hit combo without much trouble. A big enough combo and correctly-completed QTEs grants tons of “honor” points that are used to level up. If the game were harder, upgrading would have meant more...
    - ...perhaps. Aside from new execution animations, the upgrades didn't seem to have much effect.

    Ryse: Son of Rome is a linear hack'n slash that will satisfy in short bursts, but anyone looking for deep gameplay and any customization will be disappointed. The potential is there to be something truly great, but sadly that potential remains unrealized.    … Expand

Now its barely playable due to all the lagg on PC that surpasses the game's reccomended requirements. Lagg is evident all throughout the game, mostly when youre moving though levels, but also during battles where mini freeze ups occur and boss fights, its really painful. Crytek dropped the ball some where real hard.

    Its a shame, since the game isnt that bad. Combat might be somewhat repetative and lacking depth, but every stab, slice, amputation and execution feels quite satisfying even in last the minutes. However the boss fights felt quite disappointing, theyre very restrictive in terms how you can use the game's combat system. Levels, while pretty linear and restrictive in terms where you can go, look great due to Cryengine graphics and artistisc efforts put into them to make their historical settings feel alive. Soundtrack is pretty solid aswell. Story doesnt fair that badly either, it has a grandeur feeling to it and feels satisfying as you progress through it. I liked the inclusion of the mythical aspects aswell.

    I barely managed to convince msyelf to finish the game due to the abysmal lagg. Its a shame since for a 2013 game, it still holds up really well visually and offers a quite interesting adventure.    … Expand

You will find few if any video games on the market more technically impressive than this.

    On the OTHER hand, the combat is shallow and repetitive, there's literally nothing you do in the game but said combat, enemy variety is very low, and the game give you zero freedom. It's so linear and locked into the narrative it's like the Final Fantasy XIII of hack n slash action games.

    So I suppose how much enjoyment you'll get out of Ryse depends on what you personally look for in video games and what you think they should be. Do you like over the top jaw dropping technical presentations and are willing to accept meh gameplay to behold them? Then you absolutely want to play Ryse. Do you loathe and despise linear, cutscene heavy, narrative driven games with QTEs? Then stay far away from Ryse.    … Expand

Añadir, también que aunque la historia no es una obra maestra, ofrece lo que el juego necesita, lo suficiente para entretener.

    No busquéis realismo, ni histórico y de ningún tipo, no lo hay (vaya, como en las películas de acción).

    Los distintos modos de dificultad solo aumentan el daño que te hacen los enemigos.
    Los enfrentamientos contra jefes son de los mas sosos, aburridos y absurdos que he visto en juegos de este estilo.

    (spoiler içerir)
    *Oyun zaman döngüsü içerisinde, yani farklı zamanları size yaşatıyor ilk başta aklınız karışıyor ama bu durumu anca final sahnesinde anlıyorsunuz. ilk başlarda oynadığınız sahnelerin aslında size finalin nasıl olduğunu söylemesi ve sizin bunu fark edememeniz güzel bir detay (kızın kafasının surlara dikilmesini emretmesi gibi) yani ilk başta hiç anlam verememiştim. durduk yere neron ile niye başbaşayız ve bu sahne neden başka bir yerde yok anlam veremedim. bir nevi kurgu katılmış.ama bu kurgu final sahnelerinde hızlıca geçilmiş. saatlerce oynuyorsunuz ve neden oynadığınız 20 saniyelik bir ara videoda geçiştiriliyor.
    *oyunda bir şey var ki hey maşallah dedirtiyor bu da grafikler.
    arkadaşlar grafikler gerçekten şahane. bazen kendimi romada sanıyorum ışıklar,efektler, ortam gerçekten çok iyi tabi bazen gereğinden bazla kalabalık oluyor ama oyunu oynayan herkes gladyatör sahnelerinin oynandığı arena kısmını beğenmiştir. her yerde en ince detayına kadar uğraşmışlar keşke gta gibi kamera açıcı ayarlanabilseydi ve biz karakterimiz ile beraber çevreyi daha geniş açı ile oynayabilseydik görebilseydik daha güzel olurdu.
    *oyunda özellikle ara sahneler çok güzel değme dizilere taş çıkarır. oyunu geçin ara sahneleri birleştirin dizi diye oynatın. ara sahnelerde oyunun kendi grafiklerinden farklı bir tat var sanki grafik motoru ile yapılmamış da direk çekim yapıp video olarak atmışlar gibi (tam bilmiyorum) ben ara sahneleri çok beğendim.
    *Hikaye gayet güzel. yani çok iyi değil ama bu oyuna göre güzel.lan hiç değilse parasına göre güzel :) tabi bazı yerlerde kopukluklar var. neden kralın oğlu düşman kralını öldürdü anlamadım olay bu kadar basit bir intikam duygusu olmamalı, ayrıca biz savaş bitti ve sıra adamımızın intikamına geldi derken bir anda roma 10 bin asker tarafından işgal ediliyor. ilk işgal aslında ileri zamanı anlatıyorsa romalı veliaht neden düşman kralı niye öldürdü? herşey aslında finale bırakıldığı için karıştırabiliyorum.
    *karakter tasarımı olmamış,aynı karakterler devamlı karşımıza çıkıyor diyorlardı da bu kadar belirgin olduğunu düşünmemiştim, bir kaç modelden ve önemli karakterlerden başka herkes aynıydı, witcher 2 oyununda yüzlerce karakter gördüm tek bir kişi bile biraz olsun birbirine benzemiyordu, lan cüceler bile benzemiyordu burda ise ctrl-v'nin dibine vurmuşlar.oyun nasıl başladıysa öyle bitti.
    *oynanış da olmamış arkadaş. karakterimizi geliştirmemin sonuna ulaşıyoruz yine d bir kaç farklı kesip biçmenin önüne geçmiyor, hani zaten kan gövdeyi daha ilkbaşlarda götürüyor adam yüzbaşı iken de aynı kesiyor general iken de, bir yerden sonra alışıyorsunuz. mesela gears of war oynarken testereli silah ile de aynı burdaki gibi canavarları kesiyorduk ama insanın içinde daha çok kasap gibi kesme isteği uyandırıyordu bu ryse ise bir yerden sonra alışıyorsun ve hiç tat vermiyor. özellikle tam olarak kılıcı sapladığımız an yavaş çekim olup sonrasında hızlı çekime geçiyor ya aklımızı bulandırıyor güzel bir efekt değil.
    *ayrıca boss savaşları artık gına getiriyor. öldürdüm diyorsun hop bir ara sahne en baştan bir daha, hah bu sefer bitti diyorsun hop en baştan bir daha. aynı boss dövüşlerini tekrar tekrar yapa yapa gına geldi. yani bitsede gitsek lan dedim.

    gelelim tavsiye aşamasına. şimdi ben bu oyunu 7.75 tl gibi komik bir rakama aldım beğenmeszem silerim sonucunda yerli kardeşler birşeyler yapmış. bu firma ülkemize de ilk defa oyun geliştirme konusunda üniversite ile ortaklığa giden ve ülkemizle oyun sektörü daha da gelişsin diye çabalayan bir firma ve batmasını istemem. tamam belki kendileri bir witcher yapamıyor olabilir ama oyunun credits sahnesinde yerli kardeşler yazıyor ya bu fiyata yeter de artar bile.

    Overall, the game is quite solid and good. It is fun and enjoyable to play. Although the story is quite simple, I can't say I didn't enjoy it. The graphics are great even by today's standards.

    Ryse: Son of Rome is hack and slash story of a chosen hero from 3rd person view.

    Story 3.5/5 Our character tells a story of his past. The story is interesting, however I had minor issue about our hero, but it all makes sense at the end. The characters are well done, some moments are predictable. It is a story of good vs evil, so it wasn't much surprising but pleasant nevertheless. The    Ryse: Son of Rome is hack and slash story of a chosen hero from 3rd person view.

    Story 3.5/5
    Our character tells a story of his past. The story is interesting, however I had minor issue about our hero, but it all makes sense at the end. The characters are well done, some moments are predictable. It is a story of good vs evil, so it wasn't much surprising but pleasant nevertheless. The war we will be part of, is between Rome and Britons.

    Gameplay 4/5
    We are mostly fighting with sword and shield, on occasions with scorpion and javelins. There are few times we will command our units and lead them in formation. The slow time events are very important feature and are required to be mastered till the end game, however they're slowing down time so they're easy. Execution kills reward us with health or focus and are valuing our performance which doesn't seem to have huge impact.

    We can unlock various stats and execution animations by gaining experience. I haven't been able to unlock all but most. They make our character stronger.

    I wasn't initially very happy about boss fights but there are few, and the last ones are more challenging. The difficulty feels a bit off on Centurion, if not for bosses I'd say it's pretty easy, hence the time I spent playing it.

    I haven't touched multiplayer, but worth mentioning it exists. Smart and custom matches, customize your gladiator.

    Replay value 3/5
    The game is linear and can't approach even the main objectives differently. It has some collectibles. Chronicles are comics. There are total 39 and our showing some of stories related to characters in game.

    Scrolls are something like personal notes and there are 27. Vistas are nice pictures of places we visited. There is also music in collectibles unlocked.

    The highest difficulty (Legendary) unlocks after finishing game on Centurion (Hard). Game saves on checkpoints and we can replay by chapters as well.

    Graphics 4/5
    Beautiful characters and great animations, cinematics all over the game. Some characters look a bit worse than main ones and enemies are same people, which makes it easy to differentiate their types and how to fight them.

    I must mention that movement made me feel uneasy, and even after disabling the blur motion effect, I had issues, probably caused by simplistic control of character. Console port screams out loud here. Also some colored features trying to hold our hand.

    Camera sometimes does not show close up executions from right angle, so we can not time them right by seeing them but sound helps despite that.

    Hardware requirements?
    Mid and High gaming.

    Apart from some chapters, game ran well, and when it lagged it was only short a not interrupting.

    How many hours?
    5.

    What games are similar?
    Gameplay: Batman: Arkham Asylum.
    Graphics: Dead Rising 4.

    Verdict

    7/10

    It is fast burning fun. No much thinking and a lot of action moments with nice cinematics, decent story, and easy overall difficulty. I liked they added some extra touches to collectibles.

    Combat gets a bit repetitive but it serves us some new features here and there, linear levels don't give this game much replay value and there's not really much to prove since game's pretty easy. Especially after we figure out how to beat bosses and time attacks.    … Expand

    Ryse: Son of Rome immerses you in a visual feast of what was the Roman Empire. And as you begin your quest there is a feeling that something quite extraordinary could unfold at any moment. Unfortunately intrigue turns to drudgery with a linear story, repetitive game play mechanics and a mostly non-interactive world where long cut scenes leaving you wondering why this wasn't just made into a film.

    After all the bad press received for this game it’s actually a really decent game. It’s a basic hack and slash with a decent Single player and Co-op modes, with good replay ability in the co-op mode if you play with a friend, and unlike the Xbox version there’s no micro transactions. I would recommend getting it on sale though.

    Игра с самого начала привлекла меня своей атмосферой. Рим в нулевых веках нашей эры, да еще и с упором на реализм, мало в каких играх можно встретить.
    Начав прохождение, я сразу же понял, что в игре присутствуют как блестящие достоинства, так и заметные недостатки. В игре великолепные графика и анимация, и это неудивительно, ведь разработкой занималась студия Crytek, подарившая миру Crysis, игру, которая некогда привнесла графический некстген в игровую индустрию. Некоторые анимационные детали поражали. В одном моменте главный герой потягивает носом, но делает это аккуратно, будто прочищая его, с соответствующей анимацией и звуком к ней. Такое внимание к деталям не может не радовать. Этому прекрасно аккомпанирует постановка драк и в целом кат-сцен. В какие-то моменты ты можешь забыть, что играешь в игру жанра экшен. Также все это дополняет довольно крепкий сюжет, который может и не заслуживает Оскар, из-за некоторых предсказуемых частей, но тем не менее может удивить и заинтересовать игрока.
    Но, к сожалению, не обошлось и без недостатков. Оптимизация удивила и огорчила, ведь игре 2014 года не престало проседать до 30 ФПС на сборке из Ryzen 2600, 2070 Super и 16 ГБ ОЗУ. И вторым минусом, лично для меня, стала боевка. К 20-30 % игры ты практически идеально научишься блокировать, отражать, бить и наносить финальные удары, но проблема в том, что остается еще 70% прохождения, во время которых экшен моменты уже не могут привнести ничего нового.    … Expand

    + Interesting character development system for both Single and Multi player
    + Collectibles, Multiplayer items and Achievements lengthen the gaming experience...

    Cons
    - ... but the whole experience is quite short and the replayability is, however, not so high
    - The plot, despite the good narration, is not particularly deep or original and also has some holes
    - The main characters are poorly deepened during the story, notwithstanding the optimal individual design and the good voice acting
    - Gameplay repetitiveness and little variety in almost any aspect of the game
    - Alternates epic moments and situations to almost banal ones

    Overall Verdict

    7.5: Technically solid and with a few game modes, for both single and multi player, Ryse: Son of Rome is a good and absolutely entertaining game.
    Even though not advisable at full price given the overall experience, the game is capable of giving great satisfaction and excitement to all action games lovers thanks to its pace, its immediacy and its visuals. With a thicker plot it could have been a small gem.
    Interesting online component (it does remind me of Spartacus Legends) but already poor of players. Worthy in Co-op with a friend.

После фар края и крайзисов вдруг: во первых игра от третьего лица, во вторых слэшер, ну скажу так не совсем то, что я привык видеть от Crytek! Очень захотелось посмотреть, но в 2013м году игра оказалась эксклюзивом XBox One. Пришлось ждать до 2014го, когда состоялся выход на Windows 10. Каково же было моё удивление, когда игра выдала, на моём "двухъядерном монстре" GeForce GTX 295, 15 кадров в секунду на самых низких настройках! Ёлки, пришлось ждать ещё почти год до покупки GTX 960. И вот на этой карте игра раскрылась на все 100%!
    Ну, что можно сказать. Красота неимоверная (только на самых высоких настройках), картинка сочная, стильная и плавная, Crytek всё таки. Анимация на высоте, многим современным играм до такого расти и расти!
    Боевая система не совсем обычная, чем то похожа на боёвку из Batman: Arkham Asylum. Все удары завязаны на четыре, разноцветные кнопки. По началу непривычно, но когда я привык.......на экране творился какой то кровавый хаос, кишки, головы, зубы, отрубленные ноги, руки, огуречик, разлетались в разные стороны! Короче красота!!! Только есть одно условие: играть надо только и исключительно на геймпаде от Xbox 360, у меня к счастью такой был. Кто не играл, мой совет: ни каких клавиатур! Игра просто потеряет 70% своего очарования. Скорее всего низкие оценки связаны именно с тем, что в Ryse: Son of Rome пытались играть на клаве или на другом джойстике. Даже не пытайтесь! Это тоже самое, как если бы какой нибудь Maserati GranCabrio заправить дешёвой соляркой и удивляться: "А чой то он ни едит не хрена, а?"
    Теперь о сюжете. Ну меня он просто порадовал. В меру драматичен, есть элементы интриги, предательство, месть.
    Спойлер.
    Что самое главное нам дадут всё таки отомстить, а не как в давешнем The Last of Us Part II! При том в этой игре мы играем за настоящего мужика, а не за трансвестита, девчонку, или бесполую бабищу! Кстати дадут набить морду страшной тетке! Теперь таких игр не делают. Никакой толерантности!!!
    Игра не такая уж длинная, но захватывает достаточно большой промежуток времени. Надоесть не успевает. Есть элементы прокачки, но совсем не замороченные, вполне хватает до конца игры.
    Чего в игре нет так это открытого мира, она сугубо линейна, хотя может это даже плюс. Вокруг тебя всегда, что то происходит и ты всегда в центре событий.
    Ещё один плюс, это конечно полная локализация, иногда есть рассинхрон с губами, но в целом очень качественно.
    Даже не знаю, почему ставлю ей не высший бал, наверное из за врагов. Они какие то однообразные. По сути дикари-британцы и гладиаторы в конце. Хотелось бы побольше мистики, что ли!
    Жаль, что игра получила достаточно холодный приём. Может в 2014м, мир ещё не был готов к таким экспромтам Crytek? К сожалению сиквел ждать не приходится. А жаль!    … Expand

    Типичный стартовый консольный эксклюзив :) Графонистый, пафосный, но при этом с примитивным геймплеем и средненьким сюжетом. Казни понравились, сеттинг интересный, жаль, не раскрыли Мария получше. Ну и могли бы хотя бы несколько комбух завезти, а не два типа атаки да блок. На разок сойдет.Типичный стартовый консольный эксклюзив :) Графонистый, пафосный, но при этом с примитивным геймплеем и средненьким сюжетом.

    game story , graphics and game-play were fantastic I liked this game so much and much better than god of war 2018
    game has only 2 cons:
    1.short story line
    2.low quality cut scenes compare to game graphics

    average game. best thing about it was the graphics. then id say gameplay/combat. then the story. the story moved too fast, not enough development or depth that i wouldve liked. and the maps were not as complicated as i wouldve liked . i played this on gamepass. it was a short game. i could see why this would have lower reviews. id be mad too if i paid $60 for this

    La jugabilidad es muy repetitiva pero eso no significa que esta mal solo tienen que agregar algo como mejores armaduras, tipos de espadas, misiones buenas y el sigilo seria excelente! Es buen juego este juego merece una segunda entrega.

    I really liked this game. Very interesting and exciting plot, with no less interesting gameplay. BUT there is one minous. Very short game. If i wanted to get through the game quickly, i would have completed it in 6 hours at the maximum difficulty level.

    The story feels great and for the first time playing as a Roman Centurion/General, it felt amazing. I loved to see bits and pieces of military strategies used, was repetitive here and there, but overall it is a game you have to try out before anything else.

    I recommend playing Ryse without a doubt.    … Expand

    Ryse: Son of Rome - War between Barbarian

    So I played single-player, I liked the story and gameplay of the game the most, the combat system and mechanics were the best. The story of the game is very interesting about the Roman Empire and architecture with a different story about interesting military and characters, the story of the game is such that the Roman Empire fights the barbarians, the game itself shows what a war is and how spoiled emperors are. I personally liked the characters in the game, because the game shows the story of the characters not only, but also allows you to get used to the character. The game's fighting system is brutally impressive, with so much mechanics and killing animation. The game's graphics look impressive, even on low graphics it looks very nice because the textures don't blend and don't look like PlayStation 1 graphics. The enemies of the game were also fun with a few different soldiers with different skills and tactics, but I wanted more different soldiers with different skills. The music in the game is very great and good, very satisfying in the action of the excitement. In the game you can upgrade your character with certain skills and in the game you can look for an interesting collection, but they will not give you any skill.

    The game is truly awesome and worthy of attention with a fascinating story and architecture, not only but the characters are cool, interesting and the most fighting system and mechanics are very amazing. I would rate this game 9/10.    … Expand

    Quite short, good graphic, nice and repetitive gameplay and good setting. The problem is that this game feels like a tech demo and the developers didn't want to invest more resources to create an actual game. Action games set during Roman era are not common so I hope for a sort of sequel

    Rome was great , So could've been Ryse sadly it's not.
    When i started this game i was amazed at how great it was sadly it's downward spiral.
    Graphics: This is where this game shines it's incredible not the level of rdr2 or cyberpunk ofc but consider this game came out in 2014 that's insane i give 10/10 Gameplay: Despite ppl complaing about it being repetetive i disagree it's fairly    Rome was great , So could've been Ryse sadly it's not.

    Graphics: This is where this game shines it's incredible not the level of rdr2 or cyberpunk ofc but consider this game came out in 2014 that's insane i give 10/10

    Gameplay: Despite ppl complaing about it being repetetive i disagree it's fairly similiar to God Of War ( the new one) executions are fun to do and watch however lack of more skills and fighting options is dissapointing even a several executions involving 3 enemies at once and would have made a diffrence here neverthless it's second strongest aspect of game i give it 8/10.

    Sound: It's perfectly average there's nothing good or bad about it 6/10

    Plot: It's weak very weak in fact it's basiccly giant revenge ark for main protagonist which could've been incredible if there was actually some character building and plot building beside endless slaying of enemies i won't even go into plot holes 3/10

    Length: This is not really category but must be stated at the equivalent of hard difficulty it took me a bit over 5h to bet the game which is very short for single player game i infact remember several longer campaings in games like CoD or BF. The issue is compounded by the fact that there's nothing to do after it yes you can theoreticlly play through campaign again but i doubt many will be interested in that the saviour here could have been arena but multiplayer is dead and singleplayer there is a joke i can of the top of my head name several cool modes that could have been implemented there like some survival with increasingly difficult enemies time attack etc. i give this category 1/10

    Concluding this could've been an incredible game but it was either rushed of they run out of time or it was just plain laziness i don't know it's just a waste of potential in my opinion i give this game 7/10 i spend nice 5h in there considering i got the game for 1 Euro i find it acceptable but at higher prices it's really not worth it in my opinion.    … Expand

    If you are into Rome this game is for you.

    10/10 Graphics to this day, could have been a PS5 game.
    Amazing Architecture with a fantasy feeling.
    Combat is satisfying and Bosses are easy to read.

    Story is really good but I wish it would be longer.

    Im rooting for RYSE 2 with more weapons and stuff like that.

    Considering the year it was released, it still has beautiful graphics, but it also has a mediocre story and repetitive gameplay. Overall, it's an average game. Crytek wanted to make a different game at the time, but I don't think they succeeded. There is nothing memorable or special about Ryse Son Of Rome. Probably the main purpose of making this game was to better introduce the Cry Engine engine.

    The truth is that the game is entertaining but what I don't even like is that the final scene will always have a flashback where we are told the story of the character the handling of the movements made me somewhat uncomfortable but I ended up fixing it the graphics are good the difficulty is acceptable and the story is not very complex.

    Возможно, в какой то момент, кто-то из производственного процесса посчитал, что крестьянам будет скучно играть в серьёзное произведение и на кой-то притянули сюда фэнтезийные элементы. В самой игре их мало, но на их основе решили склепать концовку. Концовка настолько плоха, что убивает всю мотивацию и логику. Вырежь ты этих божков, дай персонажам (людям) отвечать за свои поступки, то мы могли бы получить настоящее драматическое произведение о преданности, предательстве и зависти. В место же этого всё переложили на совесть богов. Не буду спойлерить, но концовка поражает своей бессмысленностью. Хоть финал и обесценили, всё же сама игра и практически все её аспекты находятся на высоком уровне.

    If you are in the mood to spend a weekend enjoying some graphic ultra-violence with your brain turned off, then Ryse: Son of Rome should make a nice addition to your library, especially if you can find it on a Steam sale.

    Ryse is very simplistic, but at least it’s beautiful to look at. No wonder Microsoft made it a launch title for Xbox One – it is an ideal introduction to slashers. Unfortunately, if you have played other, better-designed games, Ryse will quickly disappoint you.
