                I'm sorry the game wasn't to your liking then, and I realize the name of the game on this site is exaggeration, but I really think you should give it a second shot and up the difficulty. The challenges in the fire realms were extremely fun.

    No, no no and no, combat is so fricking dull and bad it makes the game a dreadful experience (you know you fricked it up when you neeed an aicon to tell the player an enemy is behiond the character). The story is overdone with the father and son plot and the direction is so unspired because they decided to make the whole fricking game like it was a one shot movie, so there are no fricking cuts and it gets tyring very quickly. Dont waste your money on it.

    It's probably the worst out of all the "critically acclaimed AAA games" I've played. It is a genuinely bad game. The combat is terrible, the enemy "variety" is non existent (you fight the same fricking troll boss so many times holy shit). The "RPG" and gear mechanics are completely meaningless as the only thing that matters is your level. It's a poorly designed game through and through.

      You either didn’t play the game or you are very confused.
      The rpg and gear mechanics determine your level by what you have equipped.

      Like, are you pretending to be moronic?
      I agree that the game did not need gear and levels, and the implementation left a bit to be desired… but everything in your post is factually incorrect.

        These aren't mutually exclusive.
        If only thing that matters is level, you equip items based on their level instead of their effect

            What's the point? You like it, I don't. Acting wise it's on a level with shitty sci fi crap like Farscape and Stargate. None of the characters are likeable - the kid is supposed to be a main motivation and I wanted to throw him off a cliff. The voice acting is a large part of it. I think it sucked, you liked it. If you like that kind of thing then fine. Whatever.

You nitpick something like the voice acting, which is a really, really strange thing to pick on in a game like this, where the voice acting is a large part of what carries the characters. I'm interested in knowing WHY you would make a wild assertion about bad voice acting.

      Bit strong. It has great world building and some fun puzzles but the actual combat (the most important part) leaves a lot to be desired and there are lots of skills and equipment that are quite gimmicky and redundant. I'd give it an 8/10. Great game but not a masterpiece.

    Unfinished mediocre game with amazing production values.

    If stellar graphics can make you forgive lacking combat design, low enemy/boss variety, tacked on RPG features and braindead puzzles you may enjoy it. A typical AAA game basically.

    it was okay
    realms were kinda barebones (you physically get to explore 6, out of 9, but 4 are literal corridors
    unlocking more and more of Midgard by acquiring new skills and tools and especially making a giant fricking snake gradually move out from a lake was pretty sick
    it plays nothing like the old games, so you really have to go in knowing that ( not (You) You, You said you haven't played any) to not be dissapointed, but the gameplay itself, for the place they've build to make it work in is fine.

    if you like cinematic games you'll probably like it because there are some pretty flashy/over the top fight scenes; but when you get right down to it these flashy scenes are just cutscenes or "Mash X to live".
