You finished the demo?
They've completely co-opted the word "woke" to fit their own aims. I've yet to see it used correctly in regards to this game or even a simple explanation of HOW it's supposedly "woke."
I was comparing Days Gone to Last of Us btw . Not at all suggesting that Forspoken is similar to The Last of Us.
I've played all the above. And you'll see other impressions have compared this to Infamous.
Definitely inspired by Infamous, which deserves a sequel btw
If you play the first 10 mins of the demo, you're going to hate it. It takes at least 30 mins to get into the combat, which is enjoyable. It's just the voice acting/direction that's a peeve personally. Interested in seeing what the actual story is about, because this character's alleged "charm" I've yet to see. Maybe the story will improve that.
The voice actress and her direction I think is a major issue. That alone I think would change some people's minds. She's not very good and her dialogue is hammy and not even delivered well
My main issue with the demo is that you're literally dropped into an awkward slice of the game with no perspective for the story. The more I play, the more I'm enjoying the gameplay--especially the magic parkour. But all that is simultaneously undone by the audio direction and decisions. Quite frankly, the protagonist talks too much and the quips are dry. Secondly, the voice actress sounds older than the character and just doesn't sound suited for the kind of voice this kind of s...
Wonder if this article will get as much traction as the dump-on Forspoken wave
Oddly enough, the pre-hate for this game is similar to what Days Gone received. Now that it's in the other direction in regards to "woke" agendas, the masses aren't ignoring it's obvious flaws like they had before. Interesting. Days Gone got so many passes for bugs and blandness that it seemed like a spiteful thumb in the eye to early "woke" critiques. Now this game is supposedly "woke" drivel and not getting those same allowances...hmm. Both games ...
still holding out hope, but that demo was not the best introduction--seems like the wrong slice of the game for an introduction to new players
they will only pre-auth your card now and it'll drop off in a day or 2. They'll charge it days before shipping in Feb
343...is toast. I don't forsee a bounceback for them in general
i actually wanna play this. Yes , yes I know
The consensus seems to be swinging the other way on this
End of cycle release with "updates" for PS6
There should be a lot more. I'd even take a try at a reimagining of the lukewarm film Cowboys & Aliens. The genre is perfect for videogames. I imagine it may have something to do with sensitivities towards Native Americans in the current PC climate. But, if done respectfully, it can be pulled off. Or just veer towards the supernatural to by pass all that
You have fun playing those same 3 games over and over again. The time in between decent 3rd party games gets more and more pronounced. Waiting for games. tsk tsk These new gamers will take anything
To diminish the importance of exclusives. That's what I assume
A masterpiece?! Rly? lemme download this rq
