One of Microsoft’s biggest highlights at E3 (at least in their minds) was Ryse: Son of Rome, which is a third person action-adventure game in which the player controls a Roman general named Marius Titus. In the E3 demo, Marius storms a beach with his army, fighting past foot soldiers and archers. The demo became playable for this year’s San Diego Comic Con, and I was able to get in on the action at Microsoft’s Xbox Lounge.
From underrated Xbox One launch titles to absolute emperors of the strategy genre, history heads will love these games based around Ancient Rome.
Ryse was awesome, i have no idea why it wasnt recieved well and why we havnt seen another, Rome conquered so much, you could take the action anywhere, and it looked great when xbox one came out, now would be even better.
Ryse: Son of Rome was an Xbox One launch title that has been left to collect dust, but Crytek should set aside Crysis and give Ryse another shot.
I really liked the original Ryse but Crytek doesn't have the funds. The mismanaged their properties and let EA raid them with Crysis for the duration of their relationship. Right now they are working on Crysis 4, I doubt they can spare resources to work on a Ryse sequel.
I recently bought it for the steamdeck and have to say... 60fps is a game changer. I really wished MS had gotten a one x patch or series boost mode option but sadly, nope. Other games that definitely deserve a second chance (esp on steamdeck/pc) are quantum break and sunset overdrive. Both deserved 60fps support on one x / series but you have to go to PC for that.
Rumor has it Crytek had plans for a Ryse 2 but due to the low turnout for XB (at the time) it was shelved. They really should give this another shot. i dont care if its multiplat on PS and XB and PC and Switch... just so long as part 2 gets made.
Game was good enough, not great.
Graphically it was top notch. Still holds well till this day.
Xbox Game Pass Quests recently reset for the month of August. So if you try to collect as many Microsoft Rewards points as possible, there's a new set available now.
This is not what I would call value for money spent. They give you quests in liveservice games to get you "re-engaged" with the monetization schemes or to get you hooked or so you at least spend some extra on skins and loot boxes. Then they dole out paltry points after you have already paid extra for whichever liveservice within a liveservice that you are already paying for. My worry is people can't actually be that stupid to fall for this, can they?
da fuq is this ... RYSE was one of the best game i sow on E3 and every video commentary or even screenshots makes me love it
yo failed to post a good post sonyboy
Just goes to show ya.
Microsoft is all show, little to no substance.
But what would you expect from a game originally designed for the Kinect and retrofitted to a controller.
Well it made enough of an impression for this "Gamer" to have the initiative to weite something on it
umm, yeah, ok. Almost everyone that actually got to play it came away saying the opposite.
Try harder ponies.....
I don't understand. Why do people judge before playing the game??
