    Story wasn't so bad, but the open world felt extremely off. Literally only the combat felt good, unfortunately nothing much to use it on

    This game feels half done. It's a large open world with little to fill it. So many unnecessary pauses & fade-outs. Just let me walk & talk at the same time!

    the game was mediocre, definitely wouldn’t recommend the game if you’re playing for the story. Combat is easy but unique e light to try!

    Best Buy pre-orders are a joke.

    I pre-ordered Forspoken almost a year ago (February, 2022). How am I “rewarded” for my early purchase? First, Best Buy canceled my pre-order bonus Steelbook. Second, the shipment was delayed until the day after release. Therefore, people who decided to get the game recently or today have it, but the guy who pre-ordered the game almost a year ago has to wait a day longer while getting his pre-order bonus canceled. Truly pointless. Do I expect Best Buy to make this right? Of course not. We shall see if anyone at Best Buy cares. I won’t hold my breath.

    For some unknown reason, it overheats my PS5 whenever I play longer than an hour. In order to get through this game I always have to stop playing after about 50 minutes and let my PS5 cool, otherwise it just turns itself off. This hasn't happened with any other PS5 game and I can't explain it, it's just this one.

    Do not waste your time. I'm sure this game will be free on the PSN within 6 months. Wait for the free play, DO NOT PAY FULL PRICE. Super glitchy, terrible, and i mean terrible, storyline. Unlikeable main character.

    I thought this games was going to be terrible. Man, this game is fire. Don't let it slip through your fingers. Story line and graphics are great. Super huge world and the enemies start off kind of easy. Then they graduate on your butt. LOL.

    Ignore the negative reviews and give the game a chance. I bought it out of curiosity and was pleasantly surprised. The opening is slow and could have been paced better, but after the first few hours the game becomes simply breathtaking. The combat and travers system alone make this game a winner. The games is also quite engaging, but you have to give it a chance. As it will grow on you over time. The only real issue I have with the game is the pacing of the story, especially at the beginning of the story. In any case, the negative reviews are wrong! Forespoken is a quality game that is very miss-understood!
