60 of 133 · most liked firstso i think the idea that this represents some kind of reckoning for the sins of AAA design trends is a misread. this game lost the PR narrative months ago, Forspoken style, and the execution in the final game is a bit less polished than peers. people are still fine with this stuff in games they like
unlabelledView post →I posted about really enjoying the game “Forspoken” along with the DLC content and a lot of random accounts jumped into my post calling it woke, slop, mid and asking me how I could ever like a game that bad. Also calling the main character names etc. I went on a blocking spree. Garbage can app. 🗑️
unlabelledView post →I got reminded of Forspoken and got mad did you know the DLC ends by revealing a bigger more evil thing was behind the big evil thing from the actual game
unlabelledView post →Is this a safe space? Forspoken was always a good game.
unlabelledView post →Forspoken is a Christmas game. And my favorite at that.
unlabelledView post →I really need to focus up and finish Forspoken, so that I can keep grinding away at my massive multi-console backlog, but then I remember the greatest game of all time, Final Fantasy XIV, exists and just end up playing that instead. I may have a problem.
unlabelledView post →This was a great game and I really enjoyed. It definitely does not deserve all of the hate it’s got across all social media. I played and completed the main game and DLC! #Forspoken
unlabelledView post →I liked Forspoken more than BG3 You are under absolutely zero obligation to like a game more because it won a bunch of awards or to like a game less because it got panned. It’s more fun to think for yourself anyway.

unlabelledView post →Forspoken will be part of the December PlayStation Plus Game Catalog! Hope it finds a new audience that love Frey's amazing journey.
unlabelledView post →David Jaffe, the original creator of God of War, went off and said he thinks the new game looks boring and like Forspoken. Jaffe can eat all the dicks in his bitter little mancave because I'm going to play the everloving shit out of the new God of War game.
unlabelledView post →My eternal video game Opinions are: Final Fantasy VIII > VII Midnight Suns/GotG are peak Forspoken is good Majora was the better Zelda in that duology
unlabelledView post →Forspoken Is WAY Better Than They Told You Forspoken is not a perfect video game but many reviewers focused on minor, subjective quibbles and buried the lead about how phenomenally fun this game is to play:
unlabelledView post →Mediocre games constantly get lambasted for just having women characters or even an unconventional art style, so i really dont care for all the people searching for the positives with wolverine ps5. Other games dont get this. Forspoken was mocked endlessly and is a better game in every metric.
unlabelledView post →I wanted to play a slop game so I downloaded Remnant 2 but I quickly realized it's demanding peak and my brain can't handle it rn Forspoken it is

unlabelledView post →We're two weeks away from Clair Obscur Expedition 33's release day & I'm sooooo goddamn hype. I haven't been this excited to play a new IP since Forspoken. I hope I love it just as much as I loved that game. 💖 Also, here's my reminder to play Forspoken. #ClairObscurExpedition33 #Forspoken #PS5
unlabelledView post →What I am most proud of my interview with Lead Cinematic Artist @rjokami.bsky.social about Forspoken is how she mentions it resonated with marginalized communities and the game felt welcoming to them. We need more of that. youtu.be/Yls4T0QnEgY?...
unlabelledView post →It’s kind of sad they spend almost a decade working on Metroid Prime 4 and now it’s got to carry that Forspoken stink because of one character “they gave Samus a quipping sidekick for the whole game” The new trailer makes it clear you are only “occasionally” accompanied by one of various troopers
unlabelledView post →Forspoken is a game that I believe in like 15 years is going to to be looked at as a golden game. I really feel like people never gave it the chance it deserved all because a certain part of the internet is louder.

unlabelledView post →I have clocked in over 400 hours in Forspoken one of the only Ps5 games i've got platinum in. Its a bitter sweet feeling that this game never got the fair chance it deserved. I saw so much of myself in Frey one of my all time favs in gaming! #forspoken #forspokenanniversary

unlabelledView post →Honestly miffed Silksong lost best Art Direction to the most UE5 game ever that I literally couldnt tell apart from Forspoken thats wack as hell.
unlabelledView post →i know this will probably get some people to buy the game immediately but Forspoken, like all open world games, has collectables but importantly, one of the collectables are MAGIC KITTIES
unlabelledView post →Personally if I were making this game during the reaction to both the Forspoken trailer and Focus M I would've tried to delete some of those audio files before the trailer dropped
unlabelledView post →I'd say "the last jedi" but it's actually fairly popular, the people who hate it are just, like, insanely loud so, I guess I'd say Forspoken, which is this really solid and fun open world action game a bunch of people decided was annoying and bad without playing it
unlabelledView post →#Forspoken #PS5 So pleased I managed to get hold of a reasonably priced copy. No idea why this game was so disliked (perhaps this one user comment shows one reason). I played the demo and liked it enough straightaway to look for a copy. TBF, I've also seen some positive reviews.

unlabelledView post →Since I mentioned it, I'm replaying Forspoken and unless you've played the game you just don't know how good the movement feels, lol. It may just be me, but it is just some of the most satisfactory character movement I've ever had in an open world
unlabelledView post →Trying to hype myself up to play Forspoken. It’s a good game, but not good enough to be an open world game, if that makes sense. As misfortune would have it, it is, in fact, an open world game.
unlabelledView post →Now take this, double it, and apply it to one of the only AAA games in recent memory to Star a black woman. Subtract the cultural significance of Supergirl so almost nobody rose to the defense. Forspoken was essentially bullied by the video game industry.
unlabelledView post →there's a twist in the video game Forspoken that the protagonist is secretly a princess from a fantasy world, which is subtly foreshadowed by the fact her name is fucking Alfre
unlabelledView post →I truly hate that the internet hive mind took over all discourse about this game over one piece of dialogue. Forspoken is an awesome game! With a great protagonist and a really outstanding story. It takes a minute but with every minute it gets better!
unlabelledView post →Best Game Ever JUSTLOOKATEM!! 😍💕😺😈 #Forspoken
unlabelledView post →Started #Forspoken, and this game is way better than I was lead to believe. Unless it gets significantly worse later in the game I'm not sure what all the uproar was about. I'm having a good time.
unlabelledView post →I had bad news everyone... Forspoken is the first game on Linux...that runs worse...than Windows 😔
unlabelledView post →I remember when Forspoken came out, some friends were like "ah, another open world game" but since I hadn't played an open world game since, like, 2015, I was able to actually enjoy it
unlabelledView post →god please play Forspoken just. look. at these magical shoujo babes murdering and wiping blood from their faces. (also why wasn't the main game marketed like this I'm going insane) www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2OE...
unlabelledView post →I swear the discourse kicking up right now for Mindseye reminds me so much of the hate campaign against Forspoken years ago. This shit seems so fabricated to me & desperate. The game doesn't look like a masterpiece, but it does look like a good time. Just play games, shut up. #Mindseye #Forspoken
unlabelledView post →We need a name for that Days Gone / Forspoken style of game where it makes a very poor first impression but starts to get really good a little bit later on once you start to gain more abilities and face different kinds of challenges

unlabelledView post →For this weeks #RandomGameSaturday a modern title of Forspoken on the PS5, I know this game has received some negativity. And yes the dialogue is so cringy at times but the parkour, magic slinging action I found enjoyable, and was something different that I liked.
unlabelledView post →Going to give Forspoken a shot but I think GoW Ragnarok might be the game I’m hyper focusing on next.

unlabelledView post →Also, I know it’s a punching bag, but you should try Forspoken if you can get it for cheap. It’s actually enjoyable. 90% of the backlash to the game was anti-woke stuff. The dialogue is a bit quippy but if you have ever liked a Marvel film you have no room to turn your nose up at Forspoken.
