      Like us, with unspoken adiction- problems.. and a sinner eye for graphic- cards and for the 100% LeGal Game-key market.
      He trained as a shaolin for years to prepair for the moment whene he realize, that he had only suffered and endure pain for withstanding the situation in which he realizes he trained only for preparing for this realization- moment.
      That he will not be a shaolin anymore, and this shaolin traing was for whithstanding this realization.

    I agree so much. Loved the combat during the demo but from what I've seen from other people play, it reminds me way too much of Borderlands 3. You have these *annoying,* unlikable people in your ear constantly yammering at you with no way to shut them up. The world is dead, with boring NPCs. Decided I'm gonna wait for a steep discount to buy it.

      @@sethwood1676 soulsborne games aren’t story based action rpgs. And they’re definitely not jrpgs.
      RPG games don’t start you off with all your strongest abilities and sets. There’s a reason why the story in forspoken is shorter than most games. I.e. hogwarts legacy/assassins creed. The story essentially ends after you fourth major boss battle. And it’s at that point you have the complete set of your abilities to mix and match. But that’s all preference. Some people like fire abilities so the game gets fun for them right after the first boss battle, others like water magic some don’t mind earth magic.

      Aang in an rpg, with all bending powers when it doesn’t make sense because you haven’t learnt them yet.

He had really been looking forward to and felt there was good stuff in the game but to many of its short coming get in the way and don't let you enjoy it. He literally told me he was going to put it down and come back to it at a later date when he was less frustrated with the game. That said I am going all off what he said as I have not played it, though looking at its reported development cycle Ranton is probably right in saying it like it's been pulled apart many times. There was an idea for a good game in there somewhere, but it's been cut up a sewn back together so many times you can see what it was originally supposed to be.

    I can agree with people not liking the other aspects of the game. but when I see them calling the combat bad or trash, I just know they either didn't play it or they didn't get the hang out it lol. I don't even have the game, I cleared out the demo though, and even only having the two magics in the demo, it was fking amazing.

      Yeah lol, reminds me of his Tlou2 video where he said he doesn't care about the story if gameplay is good. Hell, he rated it 9/10.
      The thing is you can ignore mediocre writing, but if its dogshit then it starts to annoy everyone.

    I did enjoy the game and absolutely loved the combat and traversal. But I have to say the really annoying thing about the chests, even the fucking puzzle box chests that guarantee a coin that is supposed to be a rare valuable currency, is that that rare valuable currency becomes useless after a very short time. There are three merchants in the main city, only two of them even take those coins, one sells cat toys and the other random upgrades you can put on cloaks. And both of them sell their stuff for extremely cheap prices. So once you've bought it all you would think theres no point to even collecting the coins anymore because nobody else takes them. The third merchant only takes these little dolls that you get from following some of the cats around the city, and again only two out of five of his items are unique, ones a cloak, another is I think a necklace or nail design and then the other three are just " rare " crafting items that you also will collect way too much of and will no longer have a use for later.
    Here's the really wierd thing though. In the very last tanta land you go to, the one with an ugly green tint everywhere? Yeah there's actually ahouse with a secret merchant break zombie who for some reason is completely sentient and fine and can talk, even though every other person ever infected with the break dies or becomes a mindless beast. And he actually sells some pretty cool and useful stuff for the coins. And his shit is moderately expensive.
    Problem is like ranton said there are no missions or other little quests anywhere near him and by the time you've found him or figured out he's even there? You've probably already finished the fucking game, like I had done. And at that point his cool items that actually could have been helpful are now useless.

    You completely nailed this. I'm 15 hours into Forspoken and it's a different game! Man I've having a blast. I almost gave up at the 6 hour mark. Around 8 hours and suddenly it's transformers into a different game. Why the developers padded this game for 8 hours is just nuts. If they were to do an update and strip out the first 8 hours and let people start the game at Chapter 4..... whole different ballgame. It's a shame because after 8-10 hours, very fun game!

    The reason I feel I like Rantons opinions are one of the few I can trust is b/c Ranton feels like an actual gamer trying to enjoy a game

    I just watched your review and I got to say you've convinced me to try this game...when it goes on sale lol.
    How you felt about this game reminds me of the OG Nier back in 2010 in some ways, though the story and music were the highlights and not the gameplay like it is here. A significant portion of the game was just fetch quests that are slowly leading you to the main plot, which gets really good in the 2nd half.
    That game wasn't particularly good overall, but was a highly memorable experience for those that stuck with it for the story.
    I appreciate you taking the time to suffer through the game to give a solid and hilarious review of the actual pros and cons, instead of being all like "1/10, no heart, graphics bad".
