@@thebear2950who is this video for if not people interested in the game? People who already played it? Come on, it’s avoidable and they should know better; why give them a pass? Lol
@enuker7753 No, what they said was they dont like to announce things now until they are 90% done look back at the interview my friend I'm confident the console players will get the game soon
The game is too easy, specially in co-op, and we need more building variety. Enemies and companions can't cross bridges and there is no way to melt snow in winter. Still one of the greatest survivals.
this game is far from a 9 , its absolutely painfully boring after about the 9 hr mark , you just go into caves kill op enemies with bombs and find something cool at the end , how on earth is this a 9?? its a 7 at best and thats simply just because of the graphics and the building mechanics
Watched a couple of minutes and at no point was the general plot or gameplay mechanics explained. Just a fairly deep dive into what has changed since the last version you reviewed. Had to watch another video so I could get a review of this game.
“A very comfortable 30+ fps”……on pc. Imagine being comfortable with 30 fps on pc LOL Reviewer using a 3080 with dlss on balanced and STILL getting a low of 30 fps….something wrong with your pc my guy.
in lots of little ways, sure. But it's not like they're giving you a kelvin cloner to give you 6 other kelvins to build log cities. Just quality of life and seamlessness
You are right, the first game was better. This game still feels unfinished and has barely any horror in it. Especially the cannibals, they were way better in the first game.
@@Kinger039 they literally flew at the speed of light. First games cannibals couldn't have been worse. We're they more challenging and scarier after injecting compound v and lunging at you like a cannonball? Sure. Are the sequel's cannibals actually more like cannibalistic tribesman? To say otherwise would be pretty fuckin smoothbrained. Also dont understand how oiled up blue man group cave cannibals in the first are so scary to people when the sequel actually has unique cave cannibals instead of 99999999 health male blow up dolls
@@ryudious ye the second one is better overall and gameplay wise is much more fun. but I’m saying the story makes more sense if you have played the first one
The game improved SOME THINGS not everything. Its the same as the last game just better graphics. Delays in picking things up, falling through the world, A lot of items missing from the first game, rafts, enemies, Traps. ect. The map is very big with a mountain in the middle, kind of boring to traverse it. Id say its not as good as the first one and enemeies are rather boring . I was hoping for more boss battles as well
Its more of a sandbox action/horror game with survival mechanics. Its not as deep as some other survival games, but it makes up for it in combat, weapons and just overall fun
It is well worth playing but the character animations and collision detection are srsly terrible. How is it that the forest looks almost real but characters look and move like game is 15 years old
Game is far from finished.... why its 1.0 .... I mean there are so many things like animals, buildings, tools, weapons that should be in the game... Yeah the story might be finished but everything else is far from finished
there's like 4 decent things that are missing. Gators, boar, boats and the church. Everything else is either included, replaced or irrelevant/obsolete. Wouldn't call that "far from finished..............."
One of the best survival games out there everyone. Nice atmosphere, building aspects, many unique enemy types, lookswise absolutely gorgeous and many more. Me and my friends already clocked in at about 250hrs just building stuff. Definitely a must own. 👍🏼
BEWARE A LOT OF SPOILERS ARE SHOWN IN THIS REVIEW
Yeah, like a ton.
Drop time stamps?
thanks bro...saved me
It's constructive criticism, my friend, it's just that 🤗 .
IGN doesn't know how to review a game without giving major spoilers. Thanks btw.
Why does the end screen say "Reviewed on XBox, Also available on PC"??? This game is NOT out on ANY console platform. Who edited this?!?! FACT CHECK.
Maybe a leak?
It might be on Xbox’s pc game pass maybe but u right lol

Just spent 5 hours playing with mates, what a fucken treat this game is!

Can't wait for the sequel: the father of the forest
And the DLC spinoff: Daughters of the Seas
And the prequel: Mother of the Valley.

"A comfortable higher than 30 fps most of the time in 4k 😅" Of course people want to know the fps in 1440p on a 3080.
80-100fps
Crazy he’s sacrificing like 100 fps for a barely noticeable resolution bump from 1440p
Crazy he's calling 30 fps "comfortable". I'm a pleb with a 60hz monitor but 30 fps is anything but comfortable.

9/10! People are getting degraded, this is more like 5/10 and that, too, for very specific people who are into this.
“Creepy” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this review. The monsters are weird, but creepy or scary? No way
Do you know anything about a possible console release coming hopefully this year
It's a great game. The atmosphere they created makes me want to keep coming back just to spend time there.
Is it coming to PlayStation?
Is the controller support better than when it was in early access?
Controller support seems good to me! I’ve put about 20 hrs in since 1.0 and it seems pretty seamless once you know what buttons to press vs long press
It is set in the PNW. Around the Gulf Islands and San Juan Islands. At least that's the theory, I don't know if it's confirmed.
watching this at 1.25 speed makes vid sounds less sleepy.
OMG it does
-"reviewed on xbox 360" even though it's only on pc
-casually drops spoilers
-"comfortable 30 fps"
Nice review
''comfortable 30+fps" 2024 gamer moment
RIGHT?! we should be used to 200fps by now surely 😭
Let's get that console release
What is this near game breaking bug that needed a console command? And is it fixed?
this game is far from a 9 , its absolutely painfully boring after about the 9 hr mark , you just go into caves kill op enemies with bombs and find something cool at the end , how on earth is this a 9?? its a 7 at best and thats simply just because of the graphics and the building mechanics

in lots of little ways, sure. But it's not like they're giving you a kelvin cloner to give you 6 other kelvins to build log cities. Just quality of life and seamlessness
It's already pretty manageable though, unless you built on a patrol route or something
Is the story complete? It was too short and weird
still is. Too big of an ending with really just zero buildup.
Cough… um IGN are you okay? Lighting is a small detail most games ignore? Tf?
Did they eventually fix the fish traps and the doors?
Both work for me, what was broken about them
A worthy sequel
Reviewed on xbox also available on pc??? 10:30

WTF does that have to do with saying you reviewed the game on xbox? It clearly says reviewed with Xbox not reviewed with Xbox controller

They made cave exploring way scarier now.

Should IGN review early access games? I'm not sure
Interesting. My group got bored with it within 2 sessions. It feels like the exact same game as the first with little evolution.
Weirdo

They said reviewed on XBOX and also available on PC at the end… is that wrong?
It isn't on consoles yet
Why does it say reviewed on Xbox?
Because it's on Xbox
Wow, a PC early access game that they actually finished?!
You say this as if the first Forest also wasn't an early access game that was finished.
Like Baldur's Gate 3? But yeah, most are never finished before being abandoned, especially survival, zombies, and open world games.
Sadly one of the most surface level survival games out there
Its more of a sandbox action/horror game with survival mechanics. Its not as deep as some other survival games, but it makes up for it in combat, weapons and just overall fun
@@kereal2591The increased emphasis on action and availability of guns takes away from the experience tremendously.

Couldve been alot more. Mostly the same stuff

30 fps????

You are an IGN review but you don't even have a PC capable of running the game higher than 30 frames per second? 😂
Reviewed on Xbox? Really?
30fps, oh noooooo. How do people play PC games at 30fps, it destroys my soul
IGN has shitty pre-built PC's. This runs amazing on my 4090/7800x3D
He's also choosing to play at 4k instead of getting more than 30fps. Baffling.
We are still setting 30FPS as the benchmark in 2024, aren't we IGN?
Ign isn't setting any benchmarks. They're expressing their feelings on a game after playing it a bunch. What are you, 12?
SPOILER ALERT!!!
Ugh another crafting survival game? No thanks.
Lmao shut up bro you are mad annoying you aren't cool hating on games just makes you look weak
they gave it a 4, dont believe the 9s
