Played the demo and it was fine. I like the fast combat and the world looks nice. I love that you can get powers or modifiers from nail paints; I've always wanted a magic system based on nail polish (although during gameplay you don't see your nails, so whatever). Parkour is fun and fluid.

On the other hand, I didn't like that the with the fast movement and detailed world, I could barely see the enemies. I think the devs realised that and that's why they added a red "Danger" indicator to alert the player that they are meant to fight enemies. A better solution would've been to change the enemy design to make them pop out more from the background. The demo doesn't give a good idea of the story or motivation; it's literally just go to the icon on map and get a nebulous item.
Also I did think that the characters talked a bit too much and the dialogue was on the wrong side of cringeworthy.

I continue my crusade to convince the world that Forspoken is actually good game with a new article. This time is about how the combat and mechanics of the game really shine in the post-game.
As usual, its in spanish. You can read it here.

Maybe a little late, but there is really few content in spanish about the game so I'm trying my luck with a guide to the secret bosses.
If that's useful to you, you can find it here.

I did the thing.
Another Platinum for the list.
Amazing game. I spent more than twice the time in the post game than completing the story. I'm gonna miss Frey.
Status Sir_Laguna Feb 8, 2023
Finished it.
I think I'll try to get the Platinum. I really liked Frey and doing magical parkour at extreme speed feels really great, so I still want to spend some more time doing that.
I'll have a review this week on GamerFocus.

What the loving shit, this game is $93.49 CAD for the standard edition. WTF is going on? Sony can’t even bother to adhere to an established pricing practice like $89.99? Companies really don’t even care about keeping up appearances anymore, do they? And I can buy the physical edition for less, why would I ever buy a digital version?

Heard from the grapevine it has an excessive woke-ness sandwitched into it. Is it true?
Status Sir_Laguna Jan 25, 2023
This game is really, really pretty. I've only played for three hours but I'm in love with the visuals.
Magical parkour is really fun.

Man, someone got me all excited that this came out today. :( I changed the release date to the currently currect one.
I did just read this, though: "Other characters include Frey's sentient bracelet Cuff (Jonathan Cake)"
So someone named Jonathan Cake is playing a talking bracelet. Okay, sure, work.
