    Lacking combat system and mechanics, good visuals and a kind of decent gameplay with an uninspiring main character and a meh story overall. Wait until the game receives sales and has a -60% discount or more to leave it in your game library.

    5) Too much visual **** happening on the screen during combats. Because of this, I hate Korean MMOs.

    The only thing that can be called just somewhat well done is the mechanic of magical combats. Not bad, because magic doesn't touch the outside World at all. You can't set an enemy on fire with fire magic, for example. And there are no combos or connection between magic(water + electro).
    ...Horrible :(

Это ужас просто. Я надеюсь кто-то это прочитает из разработчиков. Я был реальным фанатом и начинал играть даже без обзоров и на мое мнение никто не повлиял. Вы уничтожили мир Атии пустым миром, ужасными персонажами и ужасным сценарием. Expand

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

    There are some things that I thoroughly enjoyed, like the pretty landscapes and the movement, but my biggest problems with Forspoken is that the game's setting is bland and uninteresting, Frey is such an unlikable person I would have enjoyed the game more if the main protagonist were to be any other character, and the story is not only very generic, but the pacing is all over the place, Frey goes from "I don't care if you're all gonna die" in one scene to "I am truly the hero of these lands" in the next. The bad dialogue is just the cherry on top.

    There can be enjoyment while playing, but please don't waste your 70$ goddamn dollars on this game. There are much better ones out there that deserve your attention.

    I bought this game at the very start for all 70 dollars. To be honest, after a couple of hours, when the prologue finally ended and I was allowed to play freely, I realized that I would not give even 40, and after another couple of hours of mournful grinding in a completely empty open world, I lowered the bar to 25-30.
    This game feels very, very underdeveloped. The only thing here is a competent combat system. Attention, I'm not saying that she's good, she's just that competent. From the AAA project, I expected more than a parody of InFamous with cooldown skills that need to be developed by going through literally thousands of identical events to destroy magical mutants. The parkour was pretty good as part of the combat system, but again, give me more than running, jumping, dashing and grappling - it's in any reasonably advanced game. Although the animations are not bad, yes, but it is spoiled by the horrendous graphics, by the way.
    For starters, let's get some decent graphics: I don't want to point fingers, but Final Fantasy 15, made over 7 years ago, has better graphics and lower hardware requirements. I understand that the fear that the game will be hacked faster than it is released is justified, but let's be honest, now game developers have lost more from unsold copies than from pirated ones.
    Secondly, give events that will not be associated with the extermination of the fauna of the infected world: yes, at least a damn escort mission! I'm tired of running around the empty world from point to point, collecting mana and resources - is this a AAA project or a grind simulator?
    Finally, give me the opportunity to customize the character: it's not even about whether I'm a hidden chauvinist or not, I just don't like Frey's personality, neither at the end of the game, nor even at the beginning - it smacks too much of low-grade teenage women's novels for " girls who are not like everyone else." If I were given the opportunity to influence the plot of the game more than the choice of the order of questions asked by Frey, then I would be a little less unhappy. I understand that it seems to the big bosses that "being progressive and standing up for the rights of аfrican аmericans and women, and even more so аfrican аmerican women, is fashionable", but I remind you that the gaming audience is still only 30% of them. You are shooting yourself in the foot, dear developers.
    On this I would like to finish, I give the game 3 points for attempting the magic system, well, I will add a point for parkour. Total 4/10.

    Pros:
    Movement - it can feel fun and fast when you unlock some more things. They built the open world around the fast pace traversal which also lends itself to a con.
    Magic - doing magic parkour is fun! it really is, for the most part.

    Cons:
    Graphics - feels like a bleak capital city and the open world falls flat to me. The textures look rough on the PS5.
    Immersion - oh my god, one of the worst things in this game is the constant freezing while talking to an NPC or cuff and then the dreaded fade to black. Its 2023, why is this happening? Feels very dated and i could not get very immersed in this world.
    Dialogue - Early on i was defending this area but im sad to report Frey really is unlikeable. I dont care about her, or this world at all.

    Overall - its fun zipping around and fighting enemies but theres a lot left to be desired. I regret paying full price, unfortunately,

Then I played it… this game suffered from a terrible writing team and it was a nightmare to sit through. The idea was good but it just fell flat.

    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. Luminous Production was able to make a Final Fantasy XIII-4: Forspoken and it would be treated the same in their review

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.

    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.

    - Repetitive....

I’d like to say that the gameplay makes up for its shortcomings like other reviews have but I just can’t, the “parkour” movement system gets old real quick, and the combat (despite being the strongest part of the game) also suffers the same fate, after a few hours you just begin to ask the question why am I even playing this?

    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.

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

    Not only is the dialogue abysmal but the game play is just so boring. I bought this game expecting it to be bad but f**king hell. And the worse part is that it isn't similar to games like WWE2k20 or Saints row 5 where the game is so bad that it's funny. It's just bad in general.

    The only two positives I could say about this game is 1. The addition of Auto pick-up and 2. The traversal (at times) can be... uplifting.

    Forspoken is simply just another cash grab made by scummy developers who don't care. And the worst part about it is that if they actually cared and got better voice actors and writers. This game could of been fun.

    If this is what gaming in 2023 is going to look like then we are better off just stopping here and saving ourselves the embarrassment.

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.

    Un juego mediocre, con sistemas casi primitivos, qué juegos de hace más de 10 años le superan. Cinemáticas pegadas en medio del juego.
    Voy a ignorar la narrativa, desarrollo de personajes y sus personalidades.
    Unos requisitos absurdos para correr el juego, y el precio de 80 $, es que es un robo añadiendo el plus que para jugarlo recomendado 1440p 30 fps pide la cantidad de más 1.000 $ de hardware.

    I found the game very bad with a story very similar to any isekai and literally cliche story of isekai with a super empty world not to mention that everything is bad the parkour with magic and very fun

    Trailer looked creative & got extremely hyped, yet the project ended up like any other huge generic flop. I can't understand how can anyone call people racist for simply voicing their discontent this steaming pile of god-awful dialogues & the protagonist has too many unlikeable traits & too little redeemable qualities. If you know what I mean.

    Shamelessly comparing this game to God of War

    Shamelessly comparing this game to God of War should be considered as a blasphemy & should also be punished as one. But hey maybe if you keep labeling the angry playerbase as racist & mysoginist for long enough.. who knows. No amount of ontrol can fixed this.

    This is what happens when you make a game for last gen and just use an add on for current gen, Sony have recently said they are going to continue to support last gen!!! so don't think things are going to improve anytime soon.

    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.

    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

    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.
  2. 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.
