    This is a pretty good game actually found the story surprisingly good it has some really touching moments that show the growth of the character.

Also I think this game was made by a very small team which is even more impressive with the size and scope of the project that being said I'm just going by the end credits that showed cast and crew and licenses they used it was a very short list in comparison to other titles… Expand

    Graphics look like a mod for Gothic 3 or some other outdated medieval rpg.
    Main characters are absolutely dislikeable.
    Story is bland.
    Musik sounds like being taken from a soundpool library for "medieval magic" and is forgettable.

    It feels like a poor try to fit Narnia into something woke....
    Better to waste money on something else.

    Just wonder if people who like the game, and give it high marks, is only for the "Cool, female African American" that is the main protagonist?

    The game would be considered decent if it was an Indie game, priced at a max of 40$, but considering it is a AAA game, marketed as aiming for the best graphic, this is absolute trash if we look at optimization and quality. This can be called a flop even if it was an Indie game

    This review is after beating the game, almost 100% it. If you play only for the gameplay like I did I'd say it's an 8/10, otherwise I'd say 4/10. My main complaint when only playing for the gameplay is that there's not a lot of bosses and all the bosses are easy.

It literally has the same humor as the recent She Hulk. The positive here is at least it's not an existing intellectual property being trashed. The main character is completely unlikable with no redeeming qualities. She is literally nasty to people that just helped her to an unnatural level where it doesn't even make sense. If the gameplay is just average the story and characters need to make up for it which this game doesn't. Stop listening to the few woke extra loud squeaky wheels and in quotes "professional" game critics that are activist in disguise. Honestly diversity even made sense in the beginning of this game but to overdo it with making every single person in power a women looks like it was just pushing an agenda instead of focusing on making a good game. Diversity is good and won't ruin a good game but forced diversity can make an average game bad which the user scores clearly show. Average game play, average graphics, points for being weird, not likable main character, and way to many other games to play to finish this one. The game is a typical 6 but a 0 for forced diversity making it a 3. It can be immersion breaking & immersion is the whole reason people like Square Enix games. You kill immersion you kill Square Enix. I play videogames to escape the politics of this stupid world and when even I can pull out a scorecard while playing a game something is really wrong. If this is where games are headed thank god there are so many old ones that I have enough for a life time.… Expand

    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

Everyone has their opinion but i thought a zero is a completely nonfunctional game that is unplayable. You can adjust the dialogue options. I’m not saying that all the negative reviews are from people mad about a protagonist that is a woman or a person of color but I would not be surprised that is what a couple are about. The combat is tight and responsive. The magical parkour is a blast to float through your environment. The rpg element is not incredibly deep but enough to keep me interested throughout the game so far. I love games that have a system to customize clothing and it affects your character. It’s nothing like cyberpunk 2077 but there are some options that allow for customization that increases stats. It’s a slow start but once you can free roam it’s worth it for me. The game is not a visual masterpiece but running in quality mode which is 4K (no ray tracing) with decent frame rates it’s a pretty game. I’m enjoying myself. It does suffer from standard checklist gaming but it does not bother me but I do understand it can bother others. I’m am playing on the PS5 so I’m unsure about the PC version. I’ve heard there are some issues so I would probably wait for some patches or better optimization. I like games in this category so I’m enjoying myself maybe more than others but it is a very fun game for me. If you’re not a huge fan of fantasy rpg probably wait for a sale. I would recommend the game but maybe not at full price for people who just want a casual experience.… Expand

Forspoken is perplexing. My first experience was with the games demo. Before me lay a huge barren play ground of grassy fields, tall tall mountains and enough map markers to make Ubisoft proud. Pushing forward on my joystick (taking note of the slight delay) while pressing circle I found myself boundlessly leaping and running at a break neck speed watching some of the most brilliant parkour animations appear before my eyes. I came to what looked like a majestic elk until I noticed the goldish/green rock-rot that was pretending from it's otherwise furry coat... It's a trap! I thought to my self as I slammed on my four shoulder triggers attempting to unravel a way to complicated battle system with little to no explanation on how to use this. I shut the game off. About four days later I was scouring my PS5 dashboard when I decided I'd try again, while I found the battle clumsy (and the fps uneven) I really liked the traversal. This time before I got started I got aquatinted with the battle system as I looked at the controls in the settings I also noticed a 120hz mode. I turn it on. Game changer! The fps now hovers a 40fps and the controller lag is much better. I can now play the game in fidelity not a sub 1080p the performance mode offered. I played for three hours, I loved the battle system. It was very different then anything I played in quite a while. Pushing in on r3 I locked onto a enemy. I could then run parkour around them leaping and dashing away from attacks while returning fire and rock in a blitz of spells that allows strategic offensives against each enemy. I really liked this and I wanted to buy the game. When it releases I was surprised to see how low the game actually scored. It was obvious that there were deep flaws here but it also had quite a fun hook. I decided to buy it anyway. You are Fray a 20yr old girl orphaned in N.Y. city that after getting into trouble with the law and losing everything she has finds a portal to the magical world of "Athia". The game is beautiful, large open spaces designed around the parkour system makes up several districts of the map connected to one main city. Each area contains several challenges mostly based on the combat systems magical take on action adventure/rpg made possible by the supporting character "cuff" that grants Fray these abilities.In the far corners lie the "Tanta's" this world matriarchs and former benevolent rulers that were twisted by "the break" a magical plague that distorts and mutates everything caught in it's miasma except for you. After defeating a Tanta you take on their elemental powers. The game is a lot of fun but definitely divisive. The first thing, the most important thing is the combat. If you can click with the combat/parkour mechanics then the game will open up for you if not it will fail to entertain because we'll that's really all the game offers. There are hundreds of points of interest on the map but ultimately this is a dead world and all it offers is parkour and combat, for some it's enough but a lot of people will want more. Another issue was how much better it felt in 120hz a mode that is not available to everyone. The smaller issues relate to a script that can be abrasive and a all around feeling that the budget ran out before the game was finished. There are no day/night cycle despite building camps and finding rest shelters. Some of the animation are really stiff in cut scenes as well as being forced to stay stationary at time during exposition dumps that don't really need . Also speaking of exposition dumps... There are a ton of them and they are mostly made in writing causing the pace of the game to slow to a crawl. With all that said, I personally loved the combat, the world and the characters. This game was so much fun during the times it let you go and just explore Athia that it overshadowed the dull moments. This game is not for everyone but if you can get into the demo then this might be for you. Id give it a 7.5 out of 10 and with a little fine tuning it could easily be patched to an 8. I gave it a higher meta score because of the review bombing from trolls. This game has a audience out there I'm proof of that. I hope it finds it's place… Expand

    Additionally, the storytelling was underwhelming and failed to capture my attention. The plot was poorly developed, and the characters were one-dimensional and uninteresting. The dialogue was also clunky and unengaging.

    Overall, I was disappointed with Forspoken. The poor graphics and bad storytelling detracted from my experience, and I would not recommend this game to others.    … Expand

    What a disappointment this game is. Clearly an attempt to make a fool of the consumer, promising one thing and delivering a much worse product in all respects.

    Frey is intensely unlikable and stupid
    There are some embarrassing examples of amateurish lighting
    Obvious recycled assets become distracting
    Rotten with tedious Ubisoft-like open-world design philosophy
    There are many aspects of the lore that are unbelievable

    this game is so cringe the only good thing in the game is homer the cat, the main character is worse than some NPCs the game is a badly finished clone of ff15, we have an open world but there's nothing explore there's just one city that's all.

    Sony started 70 dollar games and this is what we get? A 720p title! Not only is Sony an insult to gaming, but Sony doesn't give a damn about its players or blind fan-base. They paid two years of exclusivity so that this pile of crap couldn't be released on XBOX and they say that XBOX is starting a monopoly? How hypocritical and superficial.

    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.

The story is incredibly simple, numb, generic, PG8 and below at best. Most of it is told in lore pages rather than dialogue, yet the game is absolutely overflowing with cringe, horrible dialogue that you will quickly disable in the settings and still find annoying. The open world is empty, non-interactive, the NPCs, story characters and even the main protagonist are forgettable and very hard to connect to. Frey, the lead, is particularly toxic, unlikeable and absolutely tragic to play with because you more or less would prefer to let her fail in the mission, the objective, the story.. Judge should have given her a sentence in jail and spared us all the agony of this game.

    Combat had some potential, as did traversal, but it was implemented through a non-intuitive control scheme and experiences constant interruptions to change up spells. If only we could have assigned our favorite spells to certain buttons, had a dodge that wasn't pre-determined and the combat was a ton more fluid, it would have helped stomaching all the rest of the garbage.

    All in all, there's very little positives to find. The game simply isn't good, it ruined it potential and was released too early. Perhaps with a writing time that wasn't clearly imported from the left extremists kind to write your typical strong black woman victim overcomes it all narrative, it could have been a good game. At the current moment, I'd price it around the same as this review score: 3 bucks. That's what you're getting for it. This being a triple A at 80 bucks is a total disgrace.    … 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

    The bad:
    Excellent of mist, fog and smog to cover a lack. Textures are missing or fail to load for the environment.
    Very basic character modeling. The excrement color palette is back with a large number of greys, browns, ochre, olive green, navy blue… Painful drawing distance. In-game items crash (can be fixed with a patch). Mechanics recycled from other games like Babylons Fall, Tomb Rider Parkour and FFXV. Wide scenarios to try to give the idea of a lot of place to explore, but it is false because it is empty and there are no interesting things to do and when you want to get off the route that the game wants to show you, it returns you to the starting point of the route. This "game" costs money, it is not a demo or Early Access. The behavior of the enemies is painful and only "activates" in certain areas. Preview and introductory gameplay videos at previous years events are fake or CGIs

    The Meh!:
    When you see the Square-Enix demos known as "Angis Philosophal" or "The Witch" back in 2014-2016 the future seemed glorious and the textures and characters... but you see this game and you realize they were lying and didn't optimize nothing and they released a very poorly optimized and poorly polished game.

    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.
