I thought this looked really interesting, I hope there are some reviews.
gonna start on extreme difficulty straight away i am gonna regret this
I am starting to read the game is quite difficult,even on normal at the start and if the last Boss is anything like Bound By Flame,good luck with that lol...
If its really 40 hours,I will probably pick this up tomorrow along with Star Ocean.
Note the price is down by a third on the Xbox One digital store now. If you paid full price seek a refund.
I expected to go dagger like I normally do in RPG but switched to staff quickly - AOE attacks were a huge benefit early on. Had to train myself to not button mash in combat, it's a more tactical system than I thought it would be.
Looking at the game clips on the Xbox One, I think this game might be 60fps - framerate looks really, really solid.
I think I eventually dropped BBF down to easy, because it was quite difficult.
Ahhhh what's happening with their necks

Expect to do this again. Also someone was wondering if 10 hours was base game. Not sure, doing lots of sideas quests will def net you longer the 10 though.
I will. I don't get ashamed when I do it for games that are made difficult like this. I play a lot of games on hard.
I thought I read it was 25-40 hours?
Only once for me 'Bound by Flame', but yeah...it still burns.I got burnt by these devs two times before, there will need to be some glowing reviews before I buy this.
My Review
Rated it a Buy (FYI Youtube may still be processing this)
Ask questions if you have them

Pros
Worldview
All spoken dialogue and some of it well done
Lots of cribbing from Kotor
Skill system just unique enough to be interesting
Good overall gameplay
Party characters and choices WOW
Cons
Music about 50/50
Main character isn't the best voice actor but also doesn't talk
Some bugs
Combat is...better than past games but not great
Sounds pretty great to me!
One question, how long is it?
Was just about to come here to post the acg review but I see he beat me to it .
Definitely sounds like what I was hoping for out of the game, wasn't expecting a AAA rpg and can handle some jankyness and the overall pros seem to outweight the cons of it.
extreme is hard as fuck... 2 hits and you are dead think i am at like 100 deaths already
feels like dark souls times 10 sometimes
Sounds pretty great to me!
One question, how long is it?
Ya you have to find a sweet spot but its adjustable at all times. and honestly you can easily get through a battle without getting hit later on once you understand the fighting systems and level up
did you complete it on extreme ? been on the same mission for a good 4 hours now
and whats with the "?" on the map ? i get there and i see nothing
It honestly looks like Mad Max with force powers in a cyberpunk setting on Mars. Which is pretty neat.
Hopefully it'll be more fun than the Mad Max video game, though.
Are there guy on guy romance options available?
I had one concern about the combat from the IGN review...and for those that have played it ...
IGN says no matter how good you are combat never reaches a flow where you get better...that battles seem more luck and random. I love difficult games...but only when with practice and skill I can feel like a bad ass. Witcher 1 on hard was amazing because once you put the time into it you destroyed people, but one mistake could still mess you up. Anyone who has played the game, do you really never reach a point where combat feels natural, or by the end are you still randomly getting killed and finding combat difficult in an unfair way?
