    Forspoken: In Tanta We Trust is a lacking experience that doesn’t provide enough substance on a gameplay, character, or story level to justify its existence. At most, I found some enjoyment in the new combat ideas and the dialogue between Frey and Cinta, yet their executions only reach a surface level. After the credits and accompanying conclusion, which also contains blatant sequel bait that will likely never be fulfilled, I wasn’t left feeling any more invested in the land of Athia than I previously was.

    Complete trash! It kept crashing on me! I couldn’t connect to the characters. I do not recommend it

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. Forspoken was the first game i finished with platinum. I was filled with expectations for the DLC. I wasn't disappointed. More so, I more moved by the story and characters than before. Going to the past to build on the characters' settings was a good move, especially on the relationship between Cinta and Frey. The time between in the main game was all a bit short and bittersweet. In the DLC, you get it longer but still bittersweet. Merely 10 hours, the DLC offers character development for both heroines from start till the end. (ending credits end, mind you).

    Another discrepancy is the gameplay. Frey being the past, has totally different powers and yet feels familiar and actually more intuitive than before. Every spell has its own strengths to be fully utilized.
    The linear gameplay allows for focus on the story and interactions between the characters, and even with vambrace (I mean cuff).

    It was fun. It was short...I just wished there was more. Please Square Enix, Forspoken deserves a sequel more than any other IPs.    … Full Review »
