      This is a great showcase of the game! The game has its downsides but the gameplay is hella fun, flashy, and cool.
      If anyone wants to argue against that, then they better send a link to a gameplay that has:
      - magic
      - multiple elements
      - magic combos
      - fast dodgy gameplay (not a standing long casting mage)
      - flashy and cool

      Twitter? Why would you base your opinion of a game from some clip on twitter? There are plenty of promotional material and in depth previews available on youtube for at least 7 months now. Granted, they could've been more aggressive with the marketing. But all the info was there, and wasn't hard to find. Sure, you had to navigate through the "dIaLoGuE Is CrEngy and It'S WoKe tRash" content creators first, but it was there. THEN you would've been able to form your own opinion. A lot of what is shown in this video has been shown months ago.

      The combat is very deep and abilities are all quite unique. Putting together combos using abilities from different elements is fun and quite satisfying. This isn't the type of game where you're going to get Dark Souls/Elden Ring level difficulty where memorizing attack patterns is paramount and that's okay. The game isn't Elden Ring and doesn't try to be. It's much too fast paced for that anyway.

    The game isn’t the best but it’s nowhere near as bad as these “reviewers” are making it out to be. It has its flaws but every game has them, the combat is very fun and intuitive and also please don’t pay attention to the reviewers complaining about the game length. If you bum rush through the main story and don’t explore or do any side missions of course it will be short. I’ve heard with exploration and side quests this game can take you around 35-40 hours to beat which is not bad at all.

Where is the sweet asian girl face? We dont wanna some black girl? There are no black girl in Japan?! Just u guys check out older Square enix female protagonists. We have Tifa from Ff7 remake. Tifa is hot, nice ass, looks asian, big breasts. Have some movements that show upskirt. Hey Yuffie is also hot too, but shes only 16. That ones are "Asian" games standard for the normal Japanese dude. We play games to see nice ass, not this kinda ugly.

Although some of the more general things could use a little work, especially when you're in safe areas, when you're in open world it's really good. The fight mechanics are really good and a bit different to others.

    The more I hear about Forspoken, the more I compare it to FFXV and its release.
    Other than optimization and performance issues, the big comparison really comes to the combat. Most people chalk up XV's combat as "hold the attack button to win", but there's so many combat mechanics baked into the game like directional attacks and airstepping that makes it so much more fun than people make it out to be, which really just stems from the fact that both people are bad at experimenting and the game poorly explaining and not elaborating on mechanics.
