Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

I gave it a chance, but it didn't hook me. Since I have other games I want to play, I've given up on this one. For now, I'm leaving a negative impression because I found the game boring—even the combat—though who knows, I might change my mind later.

Phenomenal narrative game that overstays its welcome with its open world, then reels you back in at the end. The story, the lead characters, the themes, the difficult choices, the beginning and the end are all world class. However, there is too much filler in-between the good parts. It took me around 40 hours to complete with all Haunting Cases completed and 59% map completion and I wish it had taken me 20. Combat to be satisfying and engaging with my only wish for more enemy variety and for combat to be restricted to only meaningful moments. The world is beautiful and well-designed but with too few fast travel points, slow animations and quests that encourage backtracking, it does itself a disservice. I had no performance issues while playing. Overall it would be a 9/10 game on the narrative, brought down to 7/10 by the open world aspect. Please give it a try! Despite my critique, I have no regrets and want to see developers who want to try something slightly different succeed.

Beautiful game that explores a great story in a novel and unique way. I've always kind of been drawn to exploring the narratives and stories hidden behind the salem witch trials era of colonial america. Lot of good TV shows, and books do this. This is the first game i've played that explored one of those stories and brought one to life in a beautiful, gut wrenching way. Super slept on game i wish more people knew about.

I hate there's only two options for recommendations "YES or No". There needs to be a "MEH it's ok" option. I chose yes but I wouldn't because I didn't enjoy the game enough to tell people YES. And the game isn't bad enough for me to tell people No. Here are the game mechanics that pushed me quickly over the edge. Mostly the combat .. You get two characters and can only use one at a time and even though you can easily switch between them, the constant switching between them got annoying fast. Also, trying to get a " perfect switchover " or whatever it's called for bigger damage from Ghosterella wasn't a smooth combination of keys to activate . A clunky mechanic I thought, even with key bind changes . My 2 cents. Just make the two characters fight as a team. Control 1, the other using AI, and vice versa The wheels been invented already and it works fine. Stop adding flat section to it and say it's better. I have learned the second manifestation and can't figure out how to switch them. Hitting the assigned key does nothing. Can't use a heal in combat until you stop attacking, while in a fight. !! QUIT Talk blocking me !! Tryin to pick up that sweet shiny. Why can't we interact with stuff when there's a comment or small talk going on ? This really irritated me the most . The game looks good, nice graphics . The Story seems to be Good.

I wholeheartedly recommend it for the story and voice acting. The banishers work on the balance of life and death, and the many different stories make a touching impression. There is a lot of dialogue in the game, enjoy it, it's the best part. Some of the gameplay revolve around detective work, trying to figure out the reason or what happened and I really enjoyed that. Combat also plays an important part in gameplay and while the shift between exploration, dialogue and action is nice, I think the combat is the weakest part of the game, as it gets repetitive after a while. Some elite enemies are just more tedious than difficult. Some level design is also too gamey and makes little sense in the context of the world. Yet none of this takes away that this game was an excellent experience.

Surpreendente, se pudesse resumir o jogo em uma palavra. Boa jogabilidade e trama, misturam escolhas, investigação e hack n' slash, além de ter gráficos muito bons. Versão dos games do bom filme de terror "Invocação do Mal".

Отличноя игра с глубоким сюжетом
