Ryse is a simple and repetitive game.
Let's be real here though, worst game in years? That's just taking it way too far imo.
It's playable, which is much more than you can say for a lot of other shit that comes out.
Did it deserve an award? Of course not.
Does it deserve all the hate it gets here? Not in my opinion.
I usually agree when the hate train comes around here but Ryse's biggest problem is that it's boring. Boring games aren't actually the worst.

I'm talking about games I played. I cannot think of a worse game I've played in recent years, and I complete around 40 games a year, max I can achieve with my free time.
we have just released a new patch for Ryse that can now be downloaded from Steam. Highlights for this release are the ability to turn of the HUD (we can't wait to see your screenshots in the Community Hub) as well as Controller Rumble (this change being directly based on community feedback).
We have also made further improvements to performance and stability, as you can see from our full Release Notes:
SLI/Crossfire optimization & quality improvements
Improved GPU performance on NVIDIA cards, especially for GTX980/970 versions
Fixed potential crash when running the game in resolutions higher than 1080p
Fixed graphical corruption on nVidia when running in resolutions higher than 1080p
Fixed a bug that occurred on low framerate which prevented the door to open in Pax Romana
Fixed a bug that allowed Legendary difficulty to be selected with mouse even though it is not unlocked
Made CVar accessible to disable/enable force feedback on the game controller: i_forcefeedback 0/1
Made CVar accessible to disable/enable flash (e.g. the ingame HUD for taking beauty screenshots): gfx_draw 0/1
Made CVar accessible to adjust image sharpening: r_PostAASharpening 0…2 (values range from 0 to 2, default is 0.2)
Added support for high resolution timer mode to overcome FPS limits on some systems. Activate via “sys_highrestimer = 1” (without quotes) in system.cfg
Also, NVIDIA has just released new Drivers for a wide range of GeForce GPUs (version 344.4, which include a SLI profile for Ryse!

Finished this game in one sitting. Was 5 hours. Combat was very straight forward, very easy. FOV raped my eyes, and the game might have had some nice places, but the horrible FOV won't allow you to take it in.
Overall, I'd rate it 2/10. And that single point is for the roman setting.
finished it too and despite the bad review's around, i enjoyed the game
it is right, there was nothing special in the game and there is alot of potential inside the game that never came out, but it was fun to play.
The combat was overly simplistic. The story also overly simplistic. And I bet that FOV was only created to rape our eyes.
The only thing, that was good, was the setting.
i meant to say more like, with this lovely visuals and major subject, they had to do it better,interesting levels instead of repeats and better combat etc.
The design decisions will make a lot more sense if you realize/remember that Ryse was originally a Kinect-only game.
Yup, true. I actually think this proves that they failed twice. Because they could have at least implemented some kind of sword swinging technique to match it with the Kinect techlology, something anal..ogic and dynamic, but nope. Proper gameplay elements? Vade retro Satana. Let's go for the universal design: awesome buttons!

I finished this game on my neighbours XBO in 4h with my friend... while we where wasted from 5 to 7 beers so you could say ... it was a Experience to the max
Why am I doing this to myself? I said I wouldn't even download this piece of shit and yet I did. Ah, the things I have to do to test my graphics card...
+ pretty graphics
- which often feel like a downgrade from Crysis 3, perhaps due to how corridor based everything is? The lighting is definitely improved though.
- corridors
- gameplay is easy AND boring AND tiring. Wait until the enemy flashes a certain color to press the right button on the controller? Whaaat? I want the battles to be fast and challenging what's with this slow motion bullshit
- corridors

#ikant guys. Shit-delete.
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
Yeah, I was the same too.. grabbed it because I figured it would be a good way to kill a few hours and to give my card a workout, played the first couple of areas and was utterly bored, so I deleted. Terrible game.

guess you need to be drunk to be able to finish this game
More variety would have been nice, why do all the fatties with shields look the same, I thought this game was about the looks, one fatty can have a pink shield, another a scar on her face or a different haircut.
But yeah each enemy type in Ryse looks pretty much the same minus some changes in particular levels such as fighting the "goatmen" instead of the plain barbarians.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
