![]() ![]() Of people I’ve heard from, Patrick Klepek of Waypoint doesn’t have a code, YouTuber SkillUp doesn’t have one. This means that we will not get to see whether these wild recommended PC specs will lead to a poorly optimized game until after launch, so I would absolutely hold off picking up a copy on that platform until any potential issues are known.Īnd of the review copies that have gone out, it’s clear Square Enix is playing the industry’s little “limited code quantities” game where they try to say there are only a certain number of (unlimited digital) codes they can give out, which really means they are just steering away from certain outlets. Some codes had gone out, and yet I’ve learned more that still makes whatever is going on with reviews somewhat weird.įrom what I can tell, there are no PC codes of the game out for review. In search of a way home, Frey must use her newfound magical abilities to traverse sprawling landscapes and battle monstrous creatures. ![]() Update (1/20): My first draft of this piece originally said that review codes had not gone out for Forspoken yet, which was a third red flag, but I subsequently learned that wasn’t the case. Forspoken follows the journey of Frey, a young New Yorker transported to the beautiful and cruel land of Athia. From game developer HoYoverse, Honkai: Star Rail is a space fantasy turn-based RPG (role-playing game) that features a journey across the galaxy aboard the Astral Express, as. Across my roughly three hours of time spent hands-on with Forspoken, I arrived in a fantastical new world, battled a dragon. I guess we’ll find out in less than a week. Forspoken’s flashy combat and parkour can be fun, but they aren’t enough to make its cliche story and barebones open world very interesting to explore. There is also a 10 minute gameplay overview trailer, which was mentioned in the first quote block above. Forspoken will include over 100 spells and abilities - and you'll want to get to know how to use them in tandem, because it includes a Devil May Cry-style combo grading system. Some of the later trailers convinced me maybe Forspoken would turn out okay (once they shed the goofy voiceovers), but there’s too much weirdness going on here to feel like this launch is going to go well and the game is going to launch in the state it should be in.
