    Forspoken is great! Play it for yourself.

    What a great game.... Forspoken has to be one of the most creative games I've played this year. I loved the story, characters, and the message. And the combat / parkouring system is A1. You just have to put the time in to learn it. Athia to me is a interesting land... especially when you read the archives and understand why it's in the state it's in. If I had to put a number on it. I"d give it a solid 8/10. Definitely not as bad as these influencers/reviewers are saying. I can tell that half of them didn't even play the game ..or just played the original demo. Guess now I will go after the platinum trophy and max out Freys Abilities. I finished the main quest at the 49hr mark If you're on the fence...give Forspoken a try. It's unfortunate that it didn't do that well at retail...cause I would love to see more of Frey's story unfold...still have more questions..looking forward to the upcoming DLC.

    A wonderful magical adventure!

    Forspoken has plenty of intense battles, magical skills with upgrades, and loads of visual aesthetic to explore. The combat is fun although dodging a bit clunky until you get use to it. The story is intense and definitely draws you in.

    Game is Way Overhated

    The topic that comes up with this game is the cheesy "Marvel" dialogue which yes im sick of Marvel doing it... but this isnt Marvel, soundtrack is great im about 7 hours in at this point and im really not seeing where all the other hate is from. But single player games are my department. Lots of different abilities and its nice to get something different. The steelbook that came with this is very nice. Overall all i enjoy it. There is plenty worse out there and this is a solid 7.5 out of 10 for me.
