Starfield, BG3, mass effect remaster, hogwarts, TLOU, the last year I've spent hundreds on games, looking for something, anything to suck me in, give me thst spark like games use to. I accepted months ago it wasn't the games, it was me. I'm to old, I don't care anymore. They don't draw me in and fulfill me like they use to. Than I saw this game, I immediately knew I was interested, but I had been interested in all the previous games I listed. I brushed it off, but kept thinking about it. Finally today I took the dive, and my God, im back baby. This game fisted my soul, and I love every second of it. I can't wait to find out what happens next. I can't believe they'd give me the choice between life and death in this way. The combat is fine, its your normal God of War combat, it's not floaty, it's not disconnected. It feels good. Parry. Dodge, it feels good. But the story, my God the story. Im not one for ghosts and haunts and stuff. But this is amazing. This is done in such a way I am just waiting with bated breath for the next reveal, the next twist. I recommend it, so much. Watch indeamaus teaser of it. If you think it looks like something your into, take the plunge.
About 11 hours in and it's just starting to open up, game is huge with everything I want, great story that keeps unfolding. Combat that is fun,powerful and effective with being able to switch to your partner in a flash. Exploration is rewarded and resources plentiful. Make the game as easy or hard as you want. Choices matter, of which you will have many, you will have your moral ground tasted, beware. This title isn't triple A it's better, please support devs that create single player games worth playing. I hope this title gets the attention it deserves, because my friends it's a good one. Well to the few critics I am 75 hours in and still love it, even more. Just finished at 85 hours one of the best story based games I have ever played. Thank you Don't nod I know this game won't sell as many copies as you want, but respect for making such a great game and all your hard work is much appreciated.
Just finished this. I would absolutely recommend it to fellow gamers. Brief summary points: The Good - Voice acting is the best I've come across in any game. Truly exceptional. Really helps you empathise with the characters - Graphics are superb - the people, the landscape, the buildings - Setting is really well done - Early New England, with colonists trying to hack out an English puritan life in an alien land - Concept is novel - the mixing of fanatical christianity with an everyday acceptance of ghosts, devilry and witchcraft really builds an immersive and unique atmosphere - the story is gripping, and the sidequests can be engaging too The Bad - There's probably not enough variety in the combat, and after a hundred encounters it can get a little samey - The map is big, and the fast travel points are too few and far between. You spend a lot of time running/climbing/ducking under in this game, and it's probably too much time. - The two points above combine to make the game longer than it needs to be. I'm a completionist by nature, but for once I didn't try to complete all the remaining sidequests before finishing the main. I just couldn't bring myself to spend 5 minutes running to a sidequest for the same fight I've had many times before, and then the same 5 minutes in reverse running back. - I don't think they quite got the gear/upgrade mechanism right. There's 8(?) items you can equip, and each can be upgraded 7 or 8 times. But the differences between the pieces are not significant, and some gear specialisms seem very unlikely The Ugly Nothing to report. This was a really good game, with no performance issues, no bugs, no massive frustrations at all. Really professional and slick.
