    the extreme negative reviews do not reflect the picture. The game runs well on the PS5 and is definitely fun. Dialogues also become more coherent as the game progresses. Even the hoop can be reduced if the talk annoys someone. It was a good game for me and met my expectations.

    Just over 10hrs in and I’m enjoying the game immensely, good fluid traversal, combat is ok takes a while to get the hang of switching between spells but it didn’t take me long to get used to it once the muscle memory kicked in.

The story is a take on the classic Alice In Wonderland story but adding a modern twist, Freya is a orphaned girl from Hells Kitchen, New York who gets transported to a mysterious world Atheia and is trying to get back home to Earth by trying to navigate the laws and politics of this new world while also trying to uncover the source of a mysterious corruption that has blighted the world of Aethia which she has dubbed The Break, while on the other hand reflecting on the bad decisions she has made in her life thus far, this in turn drives her to make something of herself in her tumultuous time in Atheia. Dialogue is a hit or miss some of the interaction between Freya and her metal companion Cuff can be funny at times but they can be a little excessive the more the game progresses, graphics are ok but compared to games like Horizon: Forbidden West & God Of War: Ragnarok the game falls short. Performance wise I’m currently playing the game in performance focused mode and I’m using the 120hz mode as I have a LGC1 that supports this and I can say with out a doubt it feels buttery smooth when traversing with Freya around huge mountains ranges and the open fields of Aethia, frames dip silently when in combat when using spells but it is nothing that hinders the overall gameplay. Overall Forspoken is shaping up to being a great experience for me and I’m glad I picked it up despite the negative backlash it seems to be receiving on social media. As of now my rating is 8/10 but this will be subject to change for when I complete the game in its entirety.… Expand

    I mean, graphics are good. Some parts of the combat is decent. But overall, huge empty worlds, boring. Traversal feels bad, mediocre almost all around.
    And then nail polish. Yes, custom nail polish gives you special abilities and stats. You can't make this up.

    Although the game has some reasonable faults at its heart it is still a fun experience. The combat specifically is outstanding just don't spam the same spell over and over and expect enjoyment.

    350 Reais em um jogo mal otimizado. Você só joga melhor se tiver uma tv com VRR. Os gráficos não são de nova geração, ultrapassados até. A iluminação é porca e até inexistente em certos pontos. Ambient occlusion horrível. Resolução cai demais as vezes e a textura das rochas e partículas são muito inferiores.
    A história é clichê e diálogos sofríveis. Mundo morto e sem vida.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O jogo é muito bom.
    Totalmente diferente do que dizem.
    A história é boa e bem detalhada,quem criticou provavelmente não leu os inúmeros documentos que há no game.
    Na minha experiência não tive um bug sequer ( diferente de God of War Ragnarok q tive 4 e Horizon Forbiden West). Pontos positivos :
    História ( Se você ler todos os documentos) Efeitos de luz e magia. Trilha sonora. Habilidades da personagem. O jogo próximo do fim se tornar exatamente divertido. Agora os pontos negativos são o Parkour segurando ⭕ pois torna as batalhas fáceis. Um simples nerf em Frey resolveria o problema. E o segundo problema é a jogabilidade. A mira falha muito e atrapalha demais no início do game. Há atrasos nos comandos. Acredito que possa ser corrigido em um patch futuro. O gráfico é ok. Algumas paisagens são belíssimas (recomendo o modo quality mesmo a 30fps) A modelagem de alguns personagens tem menor Capricho que outros. A impressão que fica é que lançaram o game antes do polimento final, mas mesmo assim é um grande jogo e me diverti bastante. Acredito que uma nota 80 seria o mais justo.    … Expand

    Forspoken é um jogo audacioso, ele tenta entregar muito e falha em alguns quesitos, porem não podemos negar que ele tem uma bela história por mais que talvez não tenha aproveitado ao máximo. O universo do jogo é muito abrangente tendo extremos desafios, porem ele não te recompensa o suficiente para aprofundar, um detalhe bem marcante que entrega muito bem é o detalhe da história isso é o ponto forte do jogo, os detalhes minuciosamente descritos para as áreas que Frey vem a descobrir e destravar é um ponto interessante. A Gameplay acaba por ser repetitiva como todo jogo, mas não chata, a personagem principal ao decorrer da história nós apegamos a ela nos sentimos indiferentes, as vezes com raiva e até mesmo nos solidarizamos. Com o decorrer dos fatos é levemente previsível de previnir o que pode ser o desfecho final da campanha principal, porem não deixa de impactar bastante, por conta dessa mistura de sentimentos que temos em relação a protagonista. Eu diria que Forspoken é um jogo que no fim ele não vai marcar gerações e revolucionar a indústria dos games, como a maioria dos jogos atuais, porem ele pode pelo menos descansar sabendo que é um bom jogo.

    Obs: alguns pontos muito interessantes que o jogo abrange de forma mesmo que sútil são problemas de autoconfiança, depressão / suicídio entre muitos temas que a protagonista meio que vai se descobrindo com o tempo.

    Obs 2: O jogo tem uma temática muito parecida com alice no pais das maravilhas, e tem inclusive um livro de história mencionado em duas partes da gameplay, mas o que mais me chamou a atenção foi a parte da trilha sonora que é praticamente idêntica a de alice e até os visuais e ambientação de alguns lugares.    … Expand

    The game is slow and lumbering in every aspect: character movement, action sequences, transition from scene to scene. Constant fades to black and silent moments, the already slow pace of the story is further artificially slowed down ad-nauseum. The dialogue is very wooden, cliched and cringey, with awkward pauses between each line. The main character's performance is constantly over-acted and over-performed, over-expressed. Nothing here makes sense. Several dialogue/writing continuity errors. Plot hole every 10 minutes.
    Somewhat empty and lifeless world to explore.
    The main character often does things which make her unlikable, it's hard to immerse.
    Technically it's also badly coded/optimised, a sad reminder that modern developers and coders are using bloated, leaky untidy code. The game looks like it could've come out 8-10 years ago, but it plays like it needs a computer from the future.

    Overall, the game feels more like the product of board meetings and market research, with no heart or soul.

    The saving grace is the voice acting for Cuff, and some interesting environments, and some cool creatures/bosses.    … Expand

    The story is... bad. Like early 90s shovelware. BUT... the gameplay gets good after about 3... 4? hours in. Honestly, if you can make it past the first boss you unlock more powers and the game really starts progressing after that point. If you can ignore the bad writing the gameplay redeems it somewhat.

I think the gameplay is great and, yes, some elements are rough around the edges but I'm so glad that developers are investing time into new IPs. Some elements feel truly next gen and I can't wait until my next play session. Strongly disagree with all the hate these creatives have to endure online.

    11/10 this game is revolutionary in term of world exploring, combat (very deep learning carve) gameplay and spell progression, story and protagonist can be lousy and annoying, but other than that the game itself is a masterpiece, buy it

    Traversal was fun, the combat gets really enjoyable once you unlock the melee options. And the characters isn't as bad as the trailers made it out to be.

It's great to see a person of colour as the protagonist but the writing fails her miserably. She is unbelievably boring and this is highlighted with her interactions with the just as uninteresting NPC's. The dialogue between her and Cuff is so cringy they give you and option to dial it back. The premise is actually interesting but the execution of it is poor. The amount of hand holding and black screens make the beginning of the game a slog and a chore to play. This results in the plot overall being uninteresting to me and doesn't come close to capturing the imagination. The open world feels empty even though there are things to do. This is because they don't give a good enough reason to actually do side quests/things on the map. It feels like they just randomly put things on the map without any thought. Gameplay feels decent but only against bigger enemies does it feel satisfying. Against smaller enemies it feels u rewarding. The game also doesn't run well on PC. This is what I and most PC gamers are expected and currently experiencing. The writing was on the wall for how bad the PC version would be as no PC codes were sent to reviewers before launch, which is a major red flag.
    Ultimately Forspoken fails on a lot of levels, and the game being $10 more than usual is just pathetic. This is a game that'll be heavily discounted in a couple of months because of how bad it is, so save your money and only buy it if the discount is around 60%/70% off and above.    … Expand

    One of the most unlikable characters in recent memory for a video game. Combat is fun but is completely ruined by poor character design and an empty open world. Square should focus less on appealing to a Western audience.

    I wanted to like this game as I thought clips were being cherry picked to make it look bad. I was wrong. The dialogue alone was enough to make me stop playing. I've never had this experience before with a game. I guess if you are deaf give it a go otherwise save your money.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Давайте сначала о достоинствах, в этой игре действительно очень хороший OST. К сожалению, на этом достоинства заканчиваются.

    Я поиграл в неё 3 часа, с надеждой, что вот-вот станет лучше, но становилось только скучнее, а недостатков появлялось все больше и больше.

    Начнем с того, что графически игра выглядит гораздо хуже большинства игр поколения PS4. Нью-Йорк из Spider Man или Division выглядел гораздо более живым, красивым и детализированным. Освещение в Forspoken отвратительное, там где все проблемные участки можно было спрятать освещением или режиссурой сцены - абсолютная пустота.

    Открытый мир Атии, или как он там, вообще напоминает ММО, абсолютно пустые и голые поля с группами врагов, которые просто стоят и ничего не делают, пока не подойдешь их бить. Геймплей как был скучным в деске, так таким же и остался. Циферки, выпадающие из них в интерфейсе на момент написания отзыва не отключались.

    Может бы вытащил все это дело сюжет, но увы, он на таком низком уровне, что лучше бы его просто не было. С момента, когда в доме героини начинается пожар и она уже будучи одетой просто игнорирует сумку с деньгами пока не найдет кошку... Ну, вы сами должны увидеть эту сцену, ничего, абсолютно ничего не мешало её взять эту сумку за 2 секунды, которая стояла прямо перед ней, а потом спасти кошку. Я понимаю, что таким образом сценаристы хотели "раскрыть героя", мол она выбрала спасти кошку и лишилась всего, но это не делается так тупо.

    Далее побег из башни-тюрьмы, мы сбегаем, тревога, весь город на ушах, нас все ищут стража прочесывает каждый уголок. Но уже с утра в этом же городе всем АБСОЛЮТНО наплевать на ваше присутствие. С вами здороваются местные жители, стражники приветствуют и улыбаются.. Эммм, простите что? Я восемь часов назад сбежал из тюрьмы и вы уже ничего не помните? В городе всего человек 100 живет...

    И вот так у них все, корявые анимации, постоянные зацепы героини за окружение, одинаковые дома, одинаковые текстуры всего, плохое освещение, плохой сюжет, постоянные "фак, фак , щит, фак, крап, фак , фак" где это совершенно неуместно.

    Короче не покупайте это, кроме музыки ничего хорошего в Forspoken нет.    … Expand

    At the beginning of the battle, I have to grind and defeat the small fish, so I'm not impressed.
    As you strengthen the main character through exploration, you will also understand the mechanics of battle at the same time, so you will be able to become a warrior, which is interesting.

    Ох. Давно я так сильно с игр не горел. "Прошел" форспокен, смотря стримы DeadP47. Такого лютого дерьма я давно не видел. Теперь по фактам.
    1. Персонажи говны.
    Главная героиня по всем канонам нынешней повестки нигерша, к тому же "особенная". Абсолютно все персонажи крайне бесят в своей тупости, лицемерии и убогости. За пример идти вообще не буду. 3 или 4 шлюхи поссорились и призвали демона.    Ох. Давно я так сильно с игр не горел. "Прошел" форспокен, смотря стримы DeadP47. Такого лютого дерьма я давно не видел. Теперь по фактам.
    1. Персонажи говны.
    Главная героиня по всем канонам нынешней повестки нигерша, к тому же "особенная". Абсолютно все персонажи крайне бесят в своей тупости, лицемерии и убогости. За пример идти вообще не буду. 3 или 4 шлюхи поссорились и призвали демона. Они его победили, но не победили. Этот самый демон стал браслетами и прикрепился к каждой из этих сук, начав сводить их с ума. Как думаете, эти самые шлюхи, которые являются по совместительству правителями своих земель сделали хоть что то, чтоб уберечь своих подданных? Они их предупредили о том, что сойдут с ума? Нет! Нихуя подобного! В игре же из уст ГГ прозвучало примерно следующее "Они являлись просто жертвами, а виноват демон", при том, что именно они его и призвали!
    2. Логика говны.
    Тут все просто. Эти браслеты, являющиеся фактически частями демона сводили обладателей с ума. Это правило разрабы сами же и нарушили, показав гг во время сцены после титров, которая спокойно себе живёт с таким браслетом и даже с ним разговаривает. Так же логика вышла из чата потому, что у гг мать и отец белые, но при этом сама "героиня" является нигершой. Мать вместо того, чтоб отдать свою дочь отцу, просто выкидывает её в портал. В рандомное место и рандомное время. Попав в детский дом ещё младенцем гг получила имя. Замечу, что она могла получить абсолютно любое, хоть жопа залупина, но при этом эта сука выдает следующее "так мать меня назвала в ее/его честь", или что то в этом духе. И так со всем!
    3. Оптимизация и графика говны.
    Даже на 4090 ФПС порой падал до 57 кадров + фризы и другого рода говно. Эти партикли вообще бесполезны, хоть они так ими коечились. Можно было сделать куда красивее и менее ресурсозатратно. Графика хуже, чем в атсасине юнити, но это уже мем.
    4. Сюжет говны.
    Как и заведено в деловых дерьмоиграх/дерьмоаниме у нас тут гребаный исекай. Бомжиха бросила своего кота и исекайнулась в какой то фентезийный мир. Ее сразу все начали облизывать, мол какая она особенная и необычная, и так далее и так далее. По факту что мы имеем?
    1) Сплошные плоские клише про избранную/особенную/единственную и неповторимую.
    2) 12 глава просто зашквар. Все, из чего она состоит, так это из "слезовыжималок" и убогой экспозиции, чтоб отбелить боссов игры, мол "они лишь жертвы, в во всем демон виноват. Такие они хорошие" и не учитывая того, что именно эти бабы виноваты в смерти их мира.
    P.S. Эта игра идеально показывает то, что женщины у власти приведут цивилизацию в упадок, если не к полной аннигиляции, после чего перекинут всю вину на кого либо, лишь бы самим не отвечать за свои действия. Демон это топовый персонаж, хоть и главный злодей. Ему я импонировал куда больше, чем надменной суке.    … Expand

The story is terrible. The protagonist is so annoying. The dialogue is cringeworthy and so are the running animations. The physics are beyond horrible. The gameplay is boring and repetitive. There is a lack of enemy variety. I couldn't even jump into a pond full of water, because these developers were too cheap to make swimming mechanics. In what world does a modern AAA open world game lack swimming mechanics?

    There is nothing to do in the open world. It's just an empty lifeless world full of plants, trees, rocks and a boring copied and pasted ancient looking city. I am sick to death of developers making the same open world games over and over again. It's always this empty landscape with a few ancient architectures and weird looking monsters. Where's the variety in AAA games? If I wanted this ancient civilization stuff, then I would go watch the History Channel. Oh that's right, even the History Channel understood that ancient civilization is boring, so they added reality shows like Pawn Stars for ratings. These developers need to cut down on this ancient civilization trash and leave that stuff to books. Speaking of ancient, it's no wonder why a fossil like GTA V currently outsells AAA games that were barely released last year. What else are people suppose to buy when these out of touch developers make the same boring and empty open world game with ancient civilization? You see that NYC section at the very start of the game? That's what I want to explore, but the developers were too cheap and lazy to make an open world game in an urban area. It's easier to copy/paste plants everywhere and use rural areas as an excuse for lack of NPCs.

    There is no multiplayer. So once you beat the story, there is literally not a reason to play this game again. Charging $70 for a game with no replay value is a cash grab. Once again, is it a surprise why GTA V outsells newer games and will eventually outsell this trash before Summer or even Spring? What else are people suppose to buy when so many games have no multiplayer? Ancient civilization, empty worlds, no online, do video game developers not want to make any freaking money? Jesus Christ are these developers so out of touch. I can't even blame Rockstar for their laziness and re-releasing GTA V for the hundredth time. Why bother releasing GTA 6 when the rest of the developers are even lazier, to the point where they don't even want to compete against GTA 5. I don't recommend this game at all.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is actually really good, and there are obvious tall tales being told by many other reviewers. Since no one has to verify they've ever even played the game, they can come on here and say whatever they want about something they've never played. I've never seen a more obvious fake review bombing in my life. Just look at all the boiler plate arguments being made. Same talking points in a bunch of ratings, and no one's questioning that lack of variation. That's crazy to me.

    They say the graphics are mediocre but the environments are larger, more detailed, more populated, and more active than in Fortnite, Dauntless, and Bayonetta 3. Proof of the falsehood of these claims is being posted all over Twitter; screenshots from the game itself. There are even wildly false claims about the graphics being seriously downgraded. That's not true. It's stunning on PS5, and a quick trip to YouTube to watch actual PS5 gameplay proves that it looks great - overall better than Division 2, that's for sure. Division 2 focuses on player characters, and the NPC's don't look so hot. More attention was given to all of the characters in Forspoken than in that. The dragon looks spectacular, and the special effects have far fewer flashing white screens than very many other titles, making it more epilepsy friendly without losing the magic of the visuals. The closest justification they have is from grabbing stills from YouTube gamers using the lowest settings on budget PC's, or criticizing character models as if PERFECTLY recreating a real actress in modeling software is easy. That's not an honest opinion, that's a bandwagon for the sake of hating a game that they already chose to hate well before its launch.

    They say the dialogue and voice acting are bad, but they gave Bayonetta 3 rave reviews despite it sounding much worse, and they say the narrative is typical or mediocre while applauding other titles that simply RETELL PRE-EXISTING STORIES WITH THE ONLY CHANGE BEING THE INSERTION OF A NEW CHARACTER [GoW] - and even games that have no story at all [Smash]. Some, like Batman, don't even introduce new characters when retelling the exact same story. The combat banter, explorative chatter, and cinematic narrative are all solid. Lots of references to Marvel movies, but the story is actually more closely related to Alice In Wonderland and Magicians [both applauded for their narratives, and the former is even referenced] -_- Most people making these arguments actually NEVER played the game because they would know that otherwise. Mario is typical; Forspoken isn't typical at all. It's not cringe Identitarian woke nonsense either, some just don't like that the lead and heroine is a racial minority who was a troubled youth. You can even see these biases in reviews ON HERE for Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Similar complaints, more forgiving ratings for the classic franchise despite the same prejudices. KH3 keeps telling the same story in new locations; rave reviews. Forspoken drops an urban adult orphan who was previously trapped in a bad and realistic situation into an Isekai modeled after GoT-like fantasy worlds [yes, there are poor people living in ghettos in the modern REAL world], gives her magical abilities, challenges her to survive in an environment that she's never experienced the parallel of, and forces her to solve a mystery around very powerful people just so that she can return home to continue her life; considered typical. How is that cookie cutter? Platform envy can make people adorably childish.

    The combat in this is richer, more varied, and more creative than in that of Hades; Hades gets rave reviews and Forspoken gets review bombed. What's the difference? Exclusivity. That's interesting, isn't it? Hades has different effects applied to the same limited move set of each of the only six standard weapons. It's extremely limited in combat variety. Forspoken has advanced movement mechanics [a cross between AC and Spider-Man], a host of different spells that ALL have different animations, a solid unlock and upgrade tree, two styles of combat to approach different situations within the same character, a mix of adds that often requires switching between combat styles, third-person shooter mechanics that use magic instead of bullets [in the spirit of Uncharted], and over-the-shoulder melee mechanics [in the spirt of GoW]. She can even continue fighting while using her parkour movements. Player controlled attacks in the middle of flips? That's not common.

    There are so many double standards used in the negative reviews of this game, and there's even more dishonesty. Don't let haters yank your chain simply because they didn't get the game on their preferred platform, and don't let polarizing critics do it either. Profiting off of hot takes and hyperbole are the norm now, so challenge them by trying the demo. You just might like it.    … Expand

Realmente nadie niega que Forspoken queda a deber en caunto al hype que se tenia, aunque para algunos que jugamos el demo empezamos a sospechar del producto final; y pues no nos equivocamos del todo, el juego es si se ve bien con unos controles del personaje que se siente fluido y que da para muchas combinaciones de magias que en combinacion con los entornos puede llevarnos a realizar coreografias sorprendentes, lo malo de esto es que el mundo abierto en el que nos topamos en el juego está muy vacío (en este aspecto me recordo al mapa de Hyrule en Zelda BOTW), ésto aunado a una paleta de colores en los enemigos del juego resulta medio dofocil diferenciarlos a la distancia; la personalizacion de las magias y de los objetos como capas, collares y hasta el decorado de las uñas que nos confieren diferentes habilidades es grande y como en otros RPG se requiere de materiales para poder mejorarlosl La historia no es tan diferente a otras historias de un protagonista que fue a dar de manera magica a otro universo para ayudar a salvar al mundo (recorde la pelicula de la torre oscura), no es tan compleja y es simple por lo que podras antocipar algunos giros de trama con facilidad. Una de las partes que me gustaron y que disfrute bastatnte fueron las batallas con los jefes, grandes y vistosos caracteristicos de Square Enix. En conclusión es un juego promedio, sin duda le falto mucho la parte innovación ya que muchas de las mecanicas ya fueron vistas en muchos juegos del pasado y se debio poner mas atención en la parte diferenciadora en una IP nueva que pintaba para ser un inicio de saga interesante. Recomiendo esperar una buena rebaja de precio si es que aun tienes ganas de probarlo. Espero haber ayudado con sus dudas. Saludos y exelentes partidas!!… Expand

    Major flaws of this game:
    > outdated open world design
    > empty world only made big to pretend there is scope
    > repetitive gameplay
    > outdated graphics (early PS4 era)
    > atrocious writing
    > horrible narrative design

    I really do not know how to feel about this game. I feel hot and cold towards it... That is all

    The open world was massively boring for me. This game is not engaging whatsoever, and the combat is mediocre at best.

    Can be fun at times but it's mostly a mess. I got this for the PS5 because Square has a history of messing up PC ports with terrible optimization and performance but I can say the performance here is pretty bad. I like to play with at least 60 fps but even in performance mode it obviously drops below that constantly. Constant stutters even in closed rooms, combat and open world have evenCan be fun at times but it's mostly a mess. I got this for the PS5 because Square has a history of messing up PC ports with terrible optimization and performance but I can say the performance here is pretty bad. I like to play with at least 60 fps but even in performance mode it obviously drops below that constantly. Constant stutters even in closed rooms, combat and open world have even worse with stuttering. Any other mode runs 30 fps and still has some noticeable stuttering and frame rate drops. Graphics are OK but I certainly wouldn't call them great. Games like God of War: Ragnarok, Horizon and many others all look better and perform much better. Gameplay and combat can be fun but there's nothing special or really all that new. Story is not terrible but not great, the main character is completely unlikable which really takes away from my engagement. I haven't finished the game yet so maybe she gets better. Pacing is way off. Long stretches of boring, insignificant story and wondering around the city go on far too long before getting to any actual action. It's fine for a little bit, but this is way too long. I may make it through the game, I may not. I may also just shelve it for a few months and try again to see if Square actually releases any patches to fix the performance but they aren't known for putting out timely patches so I'm not holding my breath. Overall, this is a game that did have some potential but is nearly a complete miss.… Expand

    Cringe in game form...That is what this is...Its the same toxic level of cringe we got from the terible Saints Row Reboot..The gameplay is wonky and repetative, they expect flashy particle effects and big explosions to make up for the messy unsatisfying feel of it all. Your unlikable ( politically corect, ceiling breaking) protagonist flops around the screen like a fish out of waterCringe in game form...That is what this is...Its the same toxic level of cringe we got from the terible Saints Row Reboot..The gameplay is wonky and repetative, they expect flashy particle effects and big explosions to make up for the messy unsatisfying feel of it all. Your unlikable ( politically corect, ceiling breaking) protagonist flops around the screen like a fish out of water spewing tech effects in all directions,. Its just lazy and uninspired. This is another game where you might be in another world but everyone acts and talks like the are on a college campus in California or San fransisco. Horrible writing and characters! Another painful modern game with painful modern writing, bloated mechanics and stale over blown gameplay.… Expand

    Really not understanding the hate.. People either have false expectations or just love to hate on games. But after spending time with Forspoken I have to say I love the combat, movement system and explorability. Hard to find a game with gameplay this fun and this deep. Very easy to pick up and play.. UNLIKE Elden Ring.

    The game is fantastic, one of the best and innovative combat systems you can think of with the best exploration system in years. Everything flows toghther nicely and looks spectacular when it does. The story is actually interesting which surprised me and Frey actually was endearing.

    Awful game. Definitely not a 10. Stop defending this trash so SE can release better.

    I am enjoying this game so much. I haven't fallen into a world with its story and lore in so long. The beginning and intro may be long but once you get more freedom and the hang of all the fast paced controls. It's so much fun.

    My only complaint is not being able to walk during certain Cuff narratives.

    Forspoken has plenty of other glaring issues like its occasionally janky platforming that results in Frey falling off buildings or its less than memorable soundtrack. It also has a number of additional points to praise like the scale of its cities and the cast of cute cat chimeras that Frey can lay down and cuddle with. This duality of fantastic ideas with less-than-stellar execution places Forspoken in a place where very few games end up — smack dab in the middle. It’s not so bad that it should be burned by fire, but not nearly good enough to make anyone’s game of the year list.

    Forspoken feels like an interesting blend of gameplay elements from Square Enix projects past and present, but we're not certain it all comes together. A middling story and combat make its fun parkour harder to bear.

    World exploration in Forspoken can bring you some real joy, and same could be said about the combat system. And yet the writing, weird visual presentation, and overall direction can really bring the whole experience down.
