I think this is just a matter of preference. I got 60 hours into Mass Effect Andromeda before I realized how little I knew about the story and worse yet how little I cared. I don’t think Forspoken is a victim of the times man it’s just not as good as it should’ve been

I liked Andromeda but my experience wasn't buggy. If you played forespoken and didn't like it fair enough. Problem is most didn't and many that did really didn't know how to play and even though the game does a good job of explaining it's controls it's still unorthodox compared to other shooters. Many people are used to familiar ways of play and the fact I been gaming for over 20 years and even I had to actually learn the game because it's really no other game like it says alot. The modern gamer today is just going to look at forspoken and relate it to a shooter but because it doesn't play like a traditional shooter they will say it's crap. The video was to show it's better than that if you play the actual game. Many are using the demo but the demo doesn't explain the controls as the full game does.

This is one of the ways the enforced DIE system in media is actually hurting the people they claim to represent. Because people are so burned out and tired of it when they see a black female lead, it’s a case of ‘here we go again’ and don’t give it a chance. We are so used to it been enforced from the top down to tick boxes that there will be game developers who build from the ground up, who want to focus on their story and characters with a unique point of view from their own backgrounds. Games that would have blown up on the Indy circuit, are never going to be given a chance because of this… and that’s just sad. Take the Dungeons and Dragons movie. People saw the strong female warrior character and the male bard and just assumed that she would be girl bossing around emasculating him, because that is what has been enforced over and over. It took word of mouth for people to say - no she is as much a part of the team as him and their skills complement each other

Now there are times both her and cuff ,that's the bracelets name, act like smart asses to each other so maybe that's what you are talking about ? If so I can't name how man characters do that and it's not an issue. Aloy I would say is boss girl. Frey isn't.

This type of game is right up my alley, but the writing alone turned me away from it... Why is so much media in these last 5 years or so plagued by inexplicably bad writing? I haven't heard anyone say anything about the protagonist's identity or representation, tho I'm sure such losers exist. Vast majority seem to agree that it's a solid game but not great, and that the writing / main character are a big turn off

The story being told I felt was great. I understand that she can come off negative but the story gave a understandable reason for it along with her growing past her issues. If you ever played Days Gone that character also rubbed people wrongly but again I feel if the writers explain why someone behaves an unpleasant why while watching them grow its fine.

Countless times I was going to the main mission but was also putting 3-4 pins on map to create a good route for collecting stuff but was also distracted by all the materials thrown around and mana. I mean, if there is a game that overloads you with stuff to do, it's this one.

The protagonist is just so unsympathetic through and through. I mean I get that media overreacts sometimes but on this case they were mostly right.

A review that doesn't bash one of the few games I platinumed this year? What is this craziness. The combat, the graphics, the visual style and feel of the world, the parkour and the music in Forspoken are all absolutely delightful. Yes, Frey can be a bit jarring with her attitude but eh, she's had a life and her attitude reflects her past. Yes, the banter between her and the cuff can get a bit repetitive, but just tune it down or turn it off if it bothers too much. And yes, the world is void of other people, and even though there is a lore explanation for it, it would've been nice if there was at least one other city or town somewhere out there. It's not a perfect game, I struggle to find one that is, but it is a definitive highlight of my gaming year for damn sure.

Then didn't buy because it's woke. A black female lead is woke to them. Read the comments people in here have said similar things that I heard and read prior to the game releasing.

Why is every single user here thinking and writing like grade schoolers? If The Last of Us Part II got love for fuckin' "Bigot Sandwich", then almost all users who speak negatively or just push the whole "gAmE BaD" are awfully hipocritical. If you are among those who can't accept that there are those who chose to love this game warts and all, then accept the fact that you are the biggest ass-kissers for trash games that are below-grade or beyond the price-tag that proves that buying games are a bad investment and a waste of money. I honestly like what I see from the game, EVEN THE DIALOGUE. But the game sucks, only because it's on PS5, and I don't wanna bother building up a PC just to play a modern game that will barely be the same experience or won't be the same as playing on a PS5. Soooo, I like the game, just hate it that I can't play it. I can buy The Last of Us Part II right now for PS4, but after EVERYTHING I have seen of the game, I'd rather play Final Fantasy XIII-2, AND I HATE THAT GAME. AND IT'S SEQUEL.

So, that will already be a strike for a game. I definitely won't defend this game, but you have to be honest about certain things that will happen due to these woke politics.

It's TRUE that many of the hates are so so exaggerating, some supposedly "cringey" dialogue aren't that bad - like the "Did I just do that..." However, I must disagree with your point where the game is getting the hate becuz of a black woman as the main protagonist. Rather, it is the total opposite. She's made to be so unrelatable and just unlikable. They made the game so that the black woman is a total asshole. What's worse, the other black girl in the game is also a thief and was first to die. Frey's character arch to become a kind and responsible person just doesn't sell sadly.

Interesting points, and I can see what you mean. Maybe I'm not compatible with her, like throughout the game, while I was feeling sympathetic and sorry for the people in the city, she just didn't care one bit, despite having nothing to go back to in NY (We know what happened to Homer). At first I felt anger like Frey when they arrested her, but after awhile, I connected more with the people, and in the next moment Frey just semi-blame Auden father's death for screwing up her ticket out of here. I can handle grumpy pessimistic defensive characters - but not this.. whatever this is.

The sheeps hating on this game i've always found very odd. Spider Man one of my favorite games of all time is praised as being the second coming of christ yet everyone who reviewed Spider Man never criticize how incredibly awkward the dialaouge is with new york citizens. They all act like robots, yet you never hear the same of level of complaints. Unfortunately there's another issue "ADULTS" lol. Adults take the fun out of everything and many people are victims of political warfare, so there was a lot of jokes about her being a chocolate lady and the haters calling it "woke" when it's really that Anti social Justice warriors are just as sensitive as Hyper SJW'S. Frey can be cringe at times but that is HER character & are we not going to pretend that Dante from DMC doesn't have cringe moments? I love Dante but he can also be a cringe legend. Yet again you don't hear the same outrage. Unfortunately adults allow politics to intervene in everything they do & it actually brainwashes them into illogical thinking because of their biasness. Does this game have flaws? absolutely but those flaws aren't bad enough to for hiveminds to act like it's the worst game or even one of the worst games ever made. I really hope they make a 2nd one and go even harder & bigger the 2nd time. This game is totally worth $40 bucks or under imo.

Well I can understand and agree with where you're coming from. I have to completely disagree with the sentiment. I picked up the game for $17. Thought it was great initially. Hell I only paid $10 overall for the game after discounts.... Long story short, even at $10 I returned it... Gave it an hour and 50 minutes of playtime. I really tried to give them a chance.... The problem is not that this game isn't good... The problem is the person who made this game clearly has not played the game or was so addicted to their own game. They lost sight of what people actually like to play. It seems there's a whole bunch of copium here. Yes, of course It doesn't deserve the sort of persecution that it receives. However, this isn't Lord of the rings gullum either.... The point is where this game ultimately fell flat for me is the movement in combat which was the number one thing which was praised by people.... It's easily looked over and it's easy to make it feel repetitive and honestly, it's up to you to make it non-repetitive.... Well, you're acting like an entire population filled with people who generally play shooting games won't just immediately pick up this game. See it as a magical shooting game and not like it because it feels like a magical shooter. It just does not feel fun to play. It's not captivating and unfortunately it's too much like any other shooting game. I might as well just go on and play Apex Legends for free.... I mean literally it's beaten by other free games in terms of gunplay. It blends a mix of very unique aspects but unfortunately each one of those unique aspects while making this game unique by bringing them all together. False flat entirely on their own as an idea.... This blend only works if you're willing to tolerate all of them together in this game and then oversee them not working. Synergistically.... Which unfortunately for me and many other people don't... I'm sorry but my time is valuable to me. I spent $10 on this game and 150 gigabytes downloading it.... If I was to be able to receive it in the future for free, I wouldn't use the bandwith downloaded again and that says an huge amount about this game... Just don't even download it. It's not worth the space. There's other things that could fill your hard drive, sadly. I love the concept of the ideas but bringing them all together makes it fall flat. They really needed a crutch to hold on to and without placing one into the game I felt this fell really far onto its head

I m sick and tired of ppl justifying a game or a movie or series having bad reviews, by saying "it's a black character on the cover" "it's a girl protagonist" etc etc. Travel the world a bit.. racism is real but it only dominates very few cultures. If you are American then sure..it s a big issue. But this game bombed EVERYWHERE. Most ppl don't care if its a black character or a woman. They care for the cringe dialogue and bad gameplay. Are there worse games? Sure..but it aint a good game objectively compared to others it was competing against. Ofc its ur opinion and u should be able to say whatever you want.

Every time there is propaganda shoved down our throats, whether its for activism reasons, corporate marketing or government messaging... that is why people don't like it. and if its black, you cry racist. If its LGBT, you cry phobic. And if its a woman, you cry misogyny. All the while ignoring badass female, black and lgbt characters people actually like. The truth is, this game is the result of a Japanese corporation leveraging politics and culture to make a product for Western audiences as they understand. It isn't even real Western wokism, its an interpretation of it as the Japanese see us. We do it too, like with Ghost of Tsushima. Except that game is universally loved by both Western and Japanese audiences. This game, on the other hand, was farted out by a corporation and dev team who didn't understand who they were making a product for. Which, ironically, is the same mistake Western corporations do over and over again.

Well I played it and I’ll tell you what the games is incredibly bad. They had potential to be good but when you have a team of terrible racist writers that have more political takes than takes on how to make the game better then u get game like this. The game was extremely repetitive. Specially after beating it. Nothing to do but run around. The parkour can be fun and amazing to look at. The boss fights was alright ig. Everything else sucked. Cuff sucked because he had terrible dialogue but he could’ve been likable. The protagonist is a bitch you’ll see now in today era who is everything a hero isn’t. One min stealing and working with gangs to telling an entire town she doesn’t care if they die throughout the entire game and extremely selfish. Nothing to sympathize with. Even I will say seeing children die in games is bad but then again just got into this new world and only talk to the kid once for like several minutes. Now she wants to kill someone and change her mind on killing ppl after killing her but doesn’t care if an entire village dies. They try to make her look like she cares but all she come across as is a bitch and when she isn’t it’s out of no where do u know the writing is bad asf. It’s so bad I could understand why cuff was evil I’d turn evil if I had to listen to that thing all day 2. All characters are ugly and uninteresting. What about her mom that for some reason didn’t turn evil while pregnant but when she wasn’t she immediately came 2 and turned into a fucking dragon. One minute earlier trying to kill Faye and the next she’s just good outta no where. There mind control by cuff but wanna kill her and cuff. U can say well they wanna kill Faye and she will just take cuff and do the rest noooooo. Impossible it’s bad story writing it would make more sense if she let herself die or helped Faye or they just all came together and it’s just a mess the story is incredible at being one of the worst stories characters and character designs in gaming history. Only thing this game got is possibly the parkour and boss fights other than that those aren’t even that good so the game should be free to play. It’s not worth anyone’s hard earned money. I wished I never bought it and that’s cuz the ability to use magic got me. Definitely a 2-10

@@Grimpachi lack of mob variety, lifeless open world and the dialogue are my major gripes still think 1-2 more years to polish up the narrative would have done them great, I would be interested in a sequel to see if they learnt from this

nice to see some positivity for this game. It got assassinated by mob mentality real bad, I had a ton of fun with it and theres nothing quite like it with the combat and traversal. I had hoped for a sequel to improve upon what was an already really solid start to a new IP, but now we won't get that cause of sales.

I missed this review. Good on ya. I’m a big, middle aged white dude with a flat-top so I’ve have had tons and tons and tons of representation in media since I started consuming it in the 80s so I have no problem if it gets weighted the other way for a few decades for balance. But this game has fantastic design elements and 2 reviewers I’ve watched for years said the combat mechanics had much merit. Also as a seperate thing, in 3rd person games I always grow to feel towards my characters the way I would about a machine or a tool or a car that I love. Sometimes almost like a pet. They have an automatic dearness to me that is fun and makes me feel it more when the y get hurt and doesn’t matter if they’re a female or a male or whatever. I get an attachment regardless.

Battlefield 1 had a black soldier on the front cover, nobody cared, the game was still well received and had high reviews. Blaming racism for a game failing is a cop out. If a game is good people will buy it despite the political agenda. Like Mortal Kombat 11, full of woke nonsense but the game was still a hit.

Battlefield 1 actually did get criticism because people said they made the small number of black soldiers that were in WW1 seem bigger than they were. Forspoken before it released was bashed by many because yes today to alot of people a black person in a setting they believe is for white people is "woke". People have left comments saying just that here.

@@Grimpachi It absolutely is "woke" to force black people into a game about a historical war where 99% of the people that fought and died were white men. That's the entire point of the grievance. If you want to show black people in your game so much, then dont choose to highlight a white male centric historical event and then complain that there isnt enough diversity to win your stupid BAFTA.

The character is way too cringy. There was a time i was excited to play this game, but after seeing how cringe the main character is and the bad writing. I knew i didn't want to waste my time despite even seeing some of its awesome fighting gameplay mechanics. Im sure ill pick it up later on when its on sale for 15.

Everyone in your comments is so disingenuous, it was literally hated on for being "woke" and the dialogue being "the worst thing ever" before it even came out. It was not given a chance and far right KZbinrs who pretend to be gamers have a huge impact on the gaming community unfortunately, specifically white people... and I mean that's a lot of gamers. Was it a great game? No. Was it good but not great? I would say yes because of its massive world with things to do and find, the tons of free customization, the plot twist in the final act that I promise you no one guessed, and the combat that had very deep and rewarding progression.

@Grimpachi Yup and the dialogue wasn't good but neither is Starfield's so.... what are we talking about here? Ever notice how most reviews couldn't come up with a negative other than the dialogue? Some mentioned the barren open world but I mean if it was full would that really allow for such freeflow and fast parkour? I'm not so sure. I personally think the game is a 7-7.5/10 and I think Easy Allies gave the same score because they really dont care about "woke" crap

Actually only some games do that. The ones that dump side content out like it's candy on Halloween. The world of Forspoken explains why everyone is in one city. The world isn't empty. It just has its quest givers in one location while everywhere else has combat and lore.

Black women on the cover... That makes no sense, number one problem for the negative reviews was the attitude/ language they chose for the main character, people didn't like it and couldn't relate to it. She was being a dick for a lot of the game to many characters. Gameplay was a positive, game world was empty. That's basically it. She could be purple it would make a difference if they scripted dialogs differently
