    This is a great game unfairly reviewed by critics who want everything tied up in a bow. I also feel some of these user reviews are disingenuous. The problem most people have with this game is the Character they simply do not like her. Don't get me wrong she was a little annoying with too much profanity but I moved on and started playing what I found to be a fun game with great gameplay.This is a great game unfairly reviewed by critics who want everything tied up in a bow.

    So before you, all start spewing nonsense and acting like a bunch of bullies in a playground. Play the game and give it a chance. I did and I am enjoying it very much.

    Sidenote: Elden ring has no story and no character development and yet everyone raves it's the greatest game in the world. I personally did not like Elden ring it wasn't my kind of game or suited my play style and it was too damn hard. That doesn't make it a bad game and the same with Forspoken.    … 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

The people giving this game a zero is something I don’t understand. I know this game is not a genre defining game. 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

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

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So I did a review on the game a while ago when I was about 10hrs in I think, I finally finished the game and honestly, it's not the best. I had a few questions in my mind as I'm progressing through the story, and I'm not sure if I didn't focus enough on the storyline or if it's an actual plot-hole. for example (--SPOILER ALERT--) why tf Cinta was the only one who turned into a dragon and other Tantas just went crazy? and obviously Cinta didn't go crazy right? because she protected Frey and told her the whole truth about her life. idk I felt like at the end it was sooo rushed that so many things in the story didn't make sense to me. and Cuff, even before it was revealed that he was the "devil" he just felt really off and he gave so many hints that maybe he's the enemy. it wasn't the best plot twist. it just feels like they put so much effort on the combat (which btw it's amazing) that they forgot about the rest that makes a game, "a good game". honestly it had so much potential but they rushed it at the end to get that cash. Another point that I forgot to mention, the dialogue will give you cancer, trust me. I played a lot of "cringey" games that made me die a little inside, Forspoken by far, made me decay. Genuinely had to pause the game a few times from the cringe.… Expand

    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

    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

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 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.

    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.

    That’s Forspoken’s biggest problem – everything I like about it gets dragged down by the unrelenting dullness of everything else. The story is boring, the characters are boring, the enemies are boring, and the world is boring.

    Forspoken is an urban-come-high-fantasy open-world, action-adventure game played in the third person. Combining magic and parkour, you take on the role of Frey as she learns to understand her new abilities in a strange world that needs saving from disaster.
