The world and gameplay reminds me of Darksiders. The momentum abilities on the other hand reminds me of Transistor, which also had a highly customizable ability system! Edit: I might pick it up when it's on sale Edit 2: I'm surprised that the steam reviews are so bad. It's sitting at ~40%

Wishful thinking (because Mort always have game reviews on plate) but I wish Mortismal would revisit this after the new Reigns of Sand update. It fixed a lot of the negatives (especially voice acting) he mentioned as well as a ton of content.

[@Coachmattyj]

Dude wow you’re the first page I’ve seen post a review of this, and how fast?? Looking forward to getting your take

[@pinatadonkey5934]

I only recently found your reviews but I absolutely love them. You’re incredibly objective in your reviews and when add in the fact that you 100%, it just makes for a very solid review experience. Appreciate all the work you put into these videos.

[@Evanz111]

I am *very* keen on this game as I was one of the few people who had a great time with Forspoken. My main concerns were about game length and repetition here, so your 100% completion reviews are the best way for me to work out if it’s worth the money! Thanks as always, Mortismal!

[@brentlee082]

I join you in loving Forspoken, this game and I also like immortals of aveum.

[@GeertPrins]

The game had been on my radar for a bit but I saw it on sale and then saw this review because I subscribed to you a few weeks ago. Must’ve been a sign from the universe because I am having a BLAST with this game. Thank you for the video and keep up the great work and don’t forget to take care of yourself!

This is definitely a put it in my keep an eye on its price list and when it drops to half off I'll buy it to play whenever the next fallow season for games comes about. But currently, I'm in BG3 heaven, looking forward to Spacerim but waiting on reviews, Jagged Alliance 3--which I started but BG3 has vastly supplanted and Armored Core 6, yeah, a new property I haven't heard of before but you enjoyed will get waitlisted.

[@yarbles66]

This is a bit off topic, but is related. I am buying this on my PS5 even though I have a pretty decent gaming laptop that was best in class (ROG Zephyrus GX701 - was around 4000 USD) at the time & came out months before the PS5. I recently bought a PS5 (purely because I bought the new Samsung QLED 85in TV & home theatre system and thought fuck it) and I am finding these sort of games run so much better on the PS5. This most certainly looks like a console game rather a PC one (15 years ago games like this were not really being released on the PC) - and anything that does just seems to run so much better on PS5. I honestly do not see any reason to buy a new PC setup anytime soon; the games that are better on PC (RTS/turn based/CRPG etc) are not very demanding & I believe my machine will be fine for another 2-3 years for such games. If I bought at top of the range PC now that could run everything, the costs would be absolutely ridiculous - I am sick of seeing companies like NVIDIA take the absolute piss with their ridiculously greedy prices for graphics cards. I absolutely love gaming on my PC - but I won't be mugged off. My next games machine purchase will likely be the PS5 pro (Q4 2024) & I believe this will be a point when we see just how atrociously PC gamers have it with pricing; the price vs performance is going to be absolutely wild when comparing the two (It's already bad - but I think this will be a real turning point & a lot of PC gamers will just choose the PS5 pro over a PC upgrade - Ive already done it & think that what I have right now is the best move I could have made). Gaming has been the one constant in my life since I was 5 & I turn 43 next month. I have owned so many computers & consoles during that time & I have never seen anything remotely close to how bad things are now for PC gamers. Sorry to hijack the thread with this - but this is the first day one game I am buying on my PS5 over PC, so I guess it's as good a place as any.

[@Larevesdanlspriiii68391]

I recall playing DMC 3 on pc 16 years ago and some others and before that there was Severance and Soul Reaver among others that never made it to console.

This came in clutch before starfield for me. Ill get into the action gameplay and later dive into an rpg. Thank you for the review

[@KosmicNomad]

Wasn't expecting a review for this. Reminds me a lot of Darksiders which is one of my favorite series. Probably won't buy it yet since BG3 just came out, and then Blasphemous 2 later in the month as well as Armoured Core, then Starfield in September, so idk when I'll have time to play this but I am very interested, don't mind some AA jank

Yours are about the only reviews I trust. Everyone else called this game mediocre yet gave other games 9/10s that didn't have nearly as much content as this game. It's like they have an agenda to only keep certain games in the public eye even tho they aren't that good (FF16)

Im diggong this game. Hidden gem after rough reviews. It's not amazing but solid fun. Its less endless and more fun with better story version of forespoken. Its a solid 7-8 so far

Great to see a game that is not a giant mess. 2023 has not been kind to PC ports this year. Thanks for the review

Mannn I was waiting for you to drop this 💯💯. I was looking forward to this game because the gameplay looked really interesting and fun. But I was unsure if it was worth buying. I was hoping that the game had a great variety of armor sets. Weapons, and combos. After watching this I think I’m going to cop it

What does cop mean?

@@Humble_Crow 😅. It’s just urban slag from where I’m from. “Cop” basically just means “to get” or “to acquire” So “I’m going to cop that” = “I’m going to get that”

Im playing the game in the steam deck and it works great now, the title can run better 30 and 60 depending of the settings, Im playing at around 40 with a mix of medium and high and 720p resolution with FSR and it looks great. Right now you can get it pretty cheap on the steam deals.

Looks like an Elden Ring meets greatly improved Forspoken type thing to me. One of the things that bothered me about Elden Ring is how From Software completely abandoned their interesting traversal additions from Sekiro. So it almost felt like a "one step forward, two steps back" situation. Deck13 had some very interesting ideas with Surge (even if those too were nothing groundbreaking), and I'm looking forward to getting my hands on yet another game from them. Also relieved to see that german game dev is still capable of producing good games.

If I haven't played either of the new God of War games (and have access to a PS5) is there a reason to play this over either of them?

I worry about how well this game will do. Clearly, it was made with a lot of love and attention, but it is dropping in a literal minefield of bigger releases. BG3 moving it's release window up to avoid Starfield sandwitched this game between it and Armored Core 6. I hope it still manages to get some decent attention.

I'd like it if you could start adding your personal favorite moments of the games you review. While I do appreciate the 100%, I think more importantly is how a game touched you, if at all. You speed through games so fast it makes me wonder if you even pause and admire the settings of a game you're playing.

[@MortismalGaming]

I did, I mentioned pretty specifically what my favorite parts of this game were, anything more wouldve been just direct spoilers

[@Nomadestra]

@MortismalGaming Ok. I remember you saying you liked the story, but not much else. Maybe it's just me but I wish and think it would be cool if you went in more detail about a story's themes and how it connects to and is complimented by gameplay systems. You have a lot of insight on games but I think you lack exploring the philosophical nature of game design. Don't get mad. Keep cooking, bro.
