Forspoken PS5 review after 3H of play:
- Frey is unbearable
- The gameplay is great
- The Open World is classic, full of points of interest and secret places for loot.
- Very stable game on PS5 but not very beautiful
- The AI of the enemies reacts well in hard mode

Frey?

Based on impressions, seems like the writing is the only real glaring issue at least early on. Square's writing is typically lousy so it's no surprise there. This won't be a GOW or Elden Ring, but maybe more in the same tier as Horizon.

If someone were to confirm this game has writing as good a horizon I’d preorder the deluxe edition today.

Preordered :banderas:


Cacs are going to flame this game but idgaf the demo was fire
The hate train is too hot to stop and they are going to say critics are being PC or were bought out by Square if it does get good reviews.

There's too many knives out for this game, Square didn't help matters either, so I would be shocked if it's a hit. I do plan on getting it and playing it to completion tho.

It will probably be the opposite, media is hive minded. They are gonna go into this game nitpicking the fukk out of it.

I could see this from a mile away just off the demo. I really really really hope its an option to make that bytch stfu in the overworld. They tried to recreate the Nier weiss dynamic but shorty was OD annoying in just 30 minutes.

The gameplay felt great however

The PC specs recommended for this game are insane.

You need a 8700K and a 3070 just for 30fps 1440p. No listed specs for 1080p. Bare minimum ram is 16GBs and needs 24GBs for the above performance.

looking at the specs and.. its over brehs.. may as well go ahead and get this dead space preorder

no way the game runs well and no way will it be justifying the high price and storage reqs on PC

sad because the combat looks crazy. I just watched a YouTube video and she cast a spell and had trees come out the ground and hold the enemies in place. Then she conjured a flaming sword and killed them :banderas:
