Furi has many things to like, the artstyle the soundtrack and in many places the boss fight design. But for me it missed in a couple main things, first of all the fights are mostly scripted meaning that you can't damage the boss if the game doesn't allow it which gets old by the later half of the game and second again in mostly the later boss fights some things feel too arcade-y like the game tries to steal my quarters which i didn't really enjoy! I have to admit that i'm not especially good in these types of games and i still think that Furi is a good game if you are the right person! Minor complains, sometimes my inputs felt delayed and the flash that animates the attack didn't always felt timed correctly so many times it confused me insteaf of helping, also it kinda felt like i was missing a few i-frames or that the area i needed to dodge was pixel perfect but my input had a delay. All and all good game, 8/10 is a fair assessment but check a gameplay video of the first half hour before you buy to see if it fits your preference and style!
Thank you for another great game! Mike's character arc was great i have to say! Such a grounded and realistic story as well! In all seriousness like Unepic and Ghost 1.0 i enjoyed every hour of it! I especially liked that in the boss fights it took less than 10 seconds to retry so it never got annoying or boring! Loved the writing and the jokes!
Doesn't reinvent the wheel but it's fun for a couple of hours, it took me about 6-7 hours to play through the story without being in a hurry, got a bit repetitive for the last half hour or so. There is more content if you enjoy it like new game+ and some challenges So i would rate it as fun/5, check a few minutes of gameplay and if you like what you see that about it for the whole game!
So this game is mainly story story story, don't pick it for the rtx graphics or the immersive combat experience. I consider it to be a well writen story first and everything else second. Also about the story, its not life changing or the next [insert beloved story here] and in my opinion it doesn't need to be, but i enjoyed the writing and the characters and i think the pacing is rather well handled for the duration of the game! Also i really enjoyed the music! The combat isn't revolutionary or anything but i think it fits the game and the story! So yeah that, watch a trailer and half an hour of gameplay or something like that and if it seems interesting its a nice unique experience!
