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. However, things get a bit more complicated when you look beyond these numbers. The Metacritic score of Forspoken currently sits at 68 as of writing.Meanwhile, on OpenCritic, Forspoken currently has a rating of fair, with a nice 69 top critic average score. 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 is out now, and you may notice that reviews seem to not be very great. I guess we’ll find out in less than a week. 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.

Better value for moneyįorspoken Digital Deluxe Edition is mostly worth it for players who are confident they will enjoy the game or have played the game and know they enjoy it but don’t mind purchasing it again. On top of that base game, the deluxe edition adds more story, including prequel content for the main story. Additional contentįorspoken Digital Deluxe Edition features the same gameplay as the standard edition, which includes customizable spells, magic-enhanced parkour, and an open world that is both visually impressive and hostile to the player.
