    a good game with a good idea but poorly executed with some fighting that had potential but are wasted. technically it is the best of xbox one and with a duration of about 7 hours

    Pelo preço certo, pode divertir e impressionar aqueles que procurarem um game ''tranquilo'' e ''simples''. Mas não espere nada de ''sensacional'' ou ''memorável''.    … Expand

    Wasted potential. Good graphics. Good ideas. At the beginning cool combat, becomes a chore very quickly. There are microtransactions for skill currency. Leveling system is somehow there but it feels totally unimportant.

    Gráficos excelentes, mesmo em 2021, história impecável e envolvente. Na dificuldade lendária o jogo ficou muito gostoso de se jogar, talvez só melhorarem um pouco o combate com menos quick time event ou adicionando outras formas de realizar as execuções para ter mais diversidade

    The game looks great, and keeps you going at a nice pace.
    Minus points are that it crashed multiple times on me while playing it. Also, not all things (such as the d-pad keys) are explained very well. And the final boss (not N.) was rather "frustrating".

    Juego bastante infravalorado en su momento. Apenas lo jugué y quedé maravillado de lo bien que se ve. La historia es bastante buena y no se diga de su doblaje. El gameplay en mi caso me gustó bastante. Aún sigo sin creer que este juego haya sido de lanzamiento para el Xbox One. Lo recomiendo un montón.

    Ryse Son of Rome was truly a next gen title for Xbox One at the time. Unfortunately, Xbox gamers only seem to like COD and Fortnite. Take this game and put it on Sonys platform and it would be an 85 all day long. I throughly enjoyed it -it was different and we needed different at the start of a that Gen. Definitely one of my favorite Xbox One titles.

Фанатам римской тематики и просто любителям красиво поставленных и срежиссированных игр - рекомендую.Качественное, высокобюджетное кино с банальным сюжетом и простеньким геймплеем на вечерок (для желающих продолжения банкета - сетевой режим и открытие различных достижений разгоняют с лихвой часов эдак до 30-40).

    I don't know if Gaystation fanboys are okay or they just hate XBOX games for nothing. This game is PERFECT. Graphics and gameplay wise but the problem is the fighting scenes are abit repetitive and the story is short. If Microsoft and Crytech added more fighting scenes awith different skills and long gameplay the game would have been a huge hype

    Interesting thing I would like to point out ; In the every other game I've played, whenever an action cutscene plays your character performs killing moves that you can not do in the actual gameplay. But in this one you can actually execute most of Marius' cutscene moves and this greatly increases the immersive feeling for me, makes watching the cutscenes even more enjoyable.

    I also understand why some compare it to gow. Only thing missing is more variety of gameplay. In many other ways I found it more successful than the new gow games.
    There are rumors that the sequel is in development, I hope it's true.

    It also looks very good even without oneX improvement. It is admirable that they were able to give these visuals even on Xbox One, which is weaker than the PS4. I thought these images were only possible in racing games on this device.

    When I look at it, One's launch games are really solid games. Way better than ps4's launch titles.
    But unfortunately, these games did not get the attention they deserve due to the kinect-loving managers and terrible pr.

I had so much fun with it, the combat is fun, the story isn’t an Oscar winner but it is pretty epic at moments. It feels like a cheesy action movie that knows what it is and embraces it, and I dig that for the same reason I like (weird comparison incoming) fast and furious movies, it’s just good action and fun. The graphics are really good on my series console. There are still people playing the multiplayer, the achievements are fun to get and there are a bunch! It’s also a short game which I love. Don’t get me wrong I love long open world games but ima till a fan of a linear and cinematic 8 hour campaign. I played this for a change of pace after sinking 100+ hours into elden ring , and it was perfect to change things up. If you have game pass or a couple extra bucks when the game is on sale, download it and play through it, you will have fun! There is also fun co-op too, this would be a great guys night game!

    This game was great it was a fun few hours and it’s a fun break from all this battle royal crap and all the microtransactions. Just I bit of good old hack and slash. I would recommend it.

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    Amazing game. How can people give this 6. Beautiful, brutal action. Its a Roman soldier action/fighter. Very story driven and feeling like the gladiator movie.

    A mediocre hack N' slash, ok combat, useless history, easy bosses and becomes totally dead and forgotten after you finish it once

    ryse è un titolo veramente impressionante, tra i titoli più belli graficamente della sua generazione, cosa che non lo fa sfigurare nemmeno con i titoli attuali.
    riuscendo a portare in scena delle ambientazioni molto belle e ricche di dettagli, e narrando di un periodo storico troppo spesso ignorato nel settore videoludico.
    però ambientazioni a parte non aspettatevi di trovarvi di fronte un documentario, dato che la narrativa del titolo è parecchio fantasiosa.
    ludicamente parlando il gioco riesce ad intrattenere, ma lo fa portando un titolo davvero basilare nelle sue meccaniche.
    un pulsante per attaccare, due per parare i colpi o rompere la guardia e l'ultimo per evitare il colpo.
    con l'aggiunta di 2 tasti speciali.
    il primo per eseguire le esecuzioni dopo aver tolto un certo tot di vita.
    il secondo per attivare uno stato di furia che ci renderà fortissimi.
    entrambe queste azioni hanno delle criticità.
    la prima una volta attivata dovremo premere il tasto x se il nemico diventa blu, o il tasto y se il nemico diventa giallo, cosa che risulta ripetitivo e poco importante se sbagliamo, dato che non ci verrà contato come sbagliato uccidendo lo stesso il nemico.
    mentre lo stato di furia è decisamente troppo potente, andando ad annullare completamente le difese nemiche, e se metteremo come bonus dei qte il potere di ripristinare la furia ne sprecheremo pochissima.
    altra problematica è la telecamera, molto lenta e super vicina al protagonista, non ci permetterà di capire sempre bene cosa fare negli scontri.
    capitando a volte di non vedere il nemico che ci attacca alle spalle, o di non vedere quale tasto premere durante i qte, dato che il protagonista coprirà interamente gli avversari.
    fortunatamente queste cose non accadono sempre, ma comunque danno fastidio.
    ryse in generale è un titolo strano, intrattiene, ma ha diverse problematiche.
    se si pensa che doveva essere un titolo nato per kinect e poi riconvertito, il titolo risulta essere un mezzo miracolo.
    ma allo stesso tempo questa struttura iniziale con la quale era stato pensato si fa sentire pesantemente, trovandoci un titolo non profondissimo, e con tanti piccoli difetti.

    After 10 years, technically is brilliant. Very enjoyable gameplay representing the Rome empire. Give it a try!

    A forgettable game that only served to show the impressive graphics of the Xbox One.

    It’s a great game, I played it originally on gamepass then I played god of war 2018 and I was just wondering how this game was so much more fun. It made me like it even more when I found out it was an Xbox exclusive. If you like good combat games give it a shot, it also has a story I really liked.

    Ryse is a bit of a marmite game, if you are looking for a great gaming experience that takes forever to perfect then Ryse is not for you. If you are interested in a Roman interactive movie with a solid story line then I’d say give it a shot.

    Beautiful but stale, boring, shallow and lacking in variation.

    Ryse: Son of Rome is a really good looking game, but at the same time incredible stupid. Thanks to the graphics and the amount of brutal combat the adventure managed to entertain, at least for a bit. If you find Ryse on sale it can be worth a closer look, but for a full price game it’s a disappointment.
