Sméagol Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 It's out now, and has my interest, but I think I prefer to hear some comments / recommendations on it first. That is, if there members who have played the game other than those who have already posted in the non-Switch thread.
Kaepora_Gaebora Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 I'm currently working on a review and have an interview with the developers for the site as well, I won't say too much but if you like beat em ups/boss fights, and surreal and intriguing story telling, I wouldnt hesitate to pick it up 2

Expand Yeah the embargo has been and gone (I've been really ill last few days so not done much of any work) so I just don't want to spoil, but yeah soundtrack is really enjoyable and memorable too. Honestly I really like the game overall, I think it's really interesting and plays well too! Could be headed for an infamous 8/10 like Mario Odyssey if it isn't careful 1

Nolan Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Counter-unelegant-argument, I got the game free via PS+ and didn’t really care for it. I don’t think it plays particularly well. I’d be remiss if I suggested someone pay money for it.

drahkon Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Just listen to this. Boss music par excellence. The complete soundtrack is on Spotify. BUY THIS GAME. 1
Ganepark32 Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Have to agree with @drahkon, Furi is a fantastic game and not least because of that incredible soundtrack (which I still listen to often, it really is amazing). It obviously won't be for every one but the rush when you finally beat a boss after learning the attack pattern, when to attack and parry and where to place yourself is something that's been unmatched for me in another game other than in the likes of Bloodborne. The reviews haven't really got that across for the Switch release, coming across as more frustrated at the constant rinse and repeat, but then as I say, it's not a game for everyone so definitely check out some gameplay if you're on the fence. But it's well worth persevering if you pick it up as it's brilliant and the bosses are really well designed. And again, that soundtrack is phenomenal. 1
Glen-i Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Heh, @drahkon is going full on "Glen talks about PMD" right now. 1
Dcubed Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Had my eye on this ever since Matthew Matosis did his brilliant video on the game. Really looking forward to getting stuck into it when I get the chance!
Kaepora_Gaebora Posted February 6, 2018 Posted February 6, 2018 The game has had a decent start on Switch, spoke with the creative director about it here: http://n-europe.com/news/furi-sales-exceed-expectations-at-launch-on-switch-for-developers-the-game-bakers 2 2
